FAQ
1. How to flash?
Unpack the file using 7-zip and flash the tar.md5 file using Odin as usual in download mode.
2. Does it work on my device?
Galaxy Player 5.0 International (Hong Kong) - Yes and tested
Galaxy Player 5.0 International (other location) - Should work, but not tested
Galaxy Player 3.6, 4.0 and 5.0 US version - No, it will likely brick your device
3. What if old settings sticking around after flashing?
Wipe the cache and do a factory reset in recovery mode.
thank you very much. been waiting for this for long time
I'm confused
Flash using odin with the PDA button or One Package button
Thanks!

You should use PDA button. See e.g.

Wow it's a excellent example thanks man!

-unless you have the korean version, this is right for you since you have international. check your "about phone" (or something like that) in setting.
-I think that you might lose yr apps. download titanium backup...acutally, i think that app only works for rooted devices. hmm. well, with that app (titanium backup) you'll be able to save your apps (the free version might take a little while to do); you might not be able to flash until you root it though.

-I don't know if I've the korean or the international version. My device says that its YP-G70 and it has a physical button.
- I can get the premium version. Will I be able to save all the data like even the files that GAMELOFT downloads from internet? Or do you think it would be better to install the apps/games again, so that it doesn't conflict with the OS/ROM
-on a side note, is anyone running this ROM on Mercurius v4 kernel?

I've gone through the forum and gone through the read me guides and looking at faq and q&a forum and I'm not able to find an answer so I'll post my questions here.
I've read through and am able to root my phone and got CWM on it.. i'm able to make a backup of my phone's data as well.
The reason I'm asking about flashing a hong kong i9100 rom is due to the fact that this phone will be used by my mom and she'd like to be able to have similar settings and set ups from an international phone. I know there are options out there to buy international version but the $10 deal is difficult to pass by.
Hopefully someone can point me to the right direction... (another reason for hong kong version is due the use of traditional chinese vs simplified chinese)
android version 2.3.4
baseband version i777uckh7
kernel version 2.6.35.7

So she lives in hong kong for using a hong kong plan... or jist needs the language?
If just the language then you can hellraise it as said before with a rom that has language. if you need a different data plan then you hellraisr but leave out csc file from hellraiser zip

@rdannar she's here with me in the US but just wanted everything to be like a hk phone..
@entropy *worship* hmm sorry how do i go about doing that? was a bit hesitant since i dont want to brick the phone and read up more before i flash it...
guys would it make a difference if i want to flash it and so my dad can use it in hk..? but i still need to test it in the US to make sure it works - how do i go about doing the testing..?
First thing is read up on odin and flash entropy dd kernel.tar. he has one in his dev thread. now you will have cwm recovery. then if you do not have root then flash root zip in Same thread. go to play store or market and download mobil odin. flash the GB firmware with language you need BUT DO NOT FLASH A KERNEL OR MODEM. THEY ARE CLEARLY INDICATED IN APP. then after install go back into cwm and install hellraiser zip.
For languages in rom look up intratech roms... He has them all and clearly labels languages etc... He is in i9100 dev thread.
If you make it through these steps just ask and we can talk about csc for your dad

It'll set all the language defaults for United States, and also I'm not sure how the APN settings in the CSC will behave on carriers other than AT&T.
The best solution is to use a local CSC appropriate for your region/carrier. But you can probably manually set up all of the differences.

3a.) How to Install a customized kernel containing ClockworkMod Recovery onto your Rooted phone from your phone, using Mobile Odin Lite or Mobile Odin Pro
This is the preferred method to install a customized kernel onto your phone. In addition, Mobile Odin is a very useful tool that will allow you to install custom software directly on your phone without using a computer.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
... using Mobile Odin Pro...
Download the file containing the kernel you want to flash, and extract from it the zImage, which contains the actual kernel. There are several kernels available which can be found in the AT&T SGS II Android Development forum.
Transfer the zImage to the root of your phone's internal or external sdcard, using a usb cable or another method such as dropbox.
On your phone, open the Mobile Odin program. If you installed Mobile Odin Lite, when it prompts you to install the add-in, click cancel. If you installed Mobile Odin Pro, you will have already downloaded and installed the add-in to activate all the features in the program. With Mobile Odin Lite, you will still be able to install the kernel.
In Mobile Odin, click on Kernel or Install Kernel, find and select the zImage on your internal or external SD card, and then click on Flash Firmware.
Mobile Odin will flash the kernel and then reboot the phone. You have now installed a custom kernel containing clockworkMod Recovery without changing the flash counter.
If you want to confirm installation of the new kernel, reboot into recovery to verify that you now have ClockworkMod Recovery. (The stock kernel has 3e recovery.) Or install CPU Spy from the Market (before you root) and compare the Kernel Info it displays with the same info from the stock kernel.
To reboot into recovery on the SGH-I777: With the phone powered off, hold down the vol up + vol down + power buttons continuously until the initial boot screen appears a second time.
The 5.0.2.3 and later versions of ClockworkMod Recovery have a different button configuration. Home = select, Back = back, Power = back from submenu or toggle logo/main menu. The 5.0.2.7 version of ClockworkMod Recovery retains this button configuration but changes it to Power = select.

Similar boat - Need Thai Rom on I777
Hey sorry for jumping in here but I have a similar case.
I have a SGH-i777 that I flashed with the official Thai files for AIS service:I9100DXKL3_I9100OLCKL2_I9100DXKL1 Ver 2.3.6
I used Odin to flash my phone with the official Thai 2.3.6ver.
Everything works except a few things:
No sound or mic on incomming or outgoing calls
Return button and search button on phone don't work
and Home button acts like return button.
So I flashed my phone's baseband with i777UCKK6 thinking that would solve the problem but it does not.
My question is, can I use the Hellraiser procedure to solve this problem?
Hellraiser only works with roms right? So is there anyway I can use the stock Thai 2.3.6 and hellraiser?
Thank for your help and suggestions!
hi everybody
I want to buy the galaxy s wifi 5.0, but I have two questions:
1- do the galaxy player roms that I find in here work with both galaxy s wifi 5.0 and galaxy player 5.0? I guess the only difference between those 2 devices is in the "central button", which is hardware in the galaxy s wifi and soft touch in the galaxy player
2- if they work, do they also work on the european model or only on the american one?
Sorry, I am new to the forum (and also to android, in fact I'm looking for FAQs and important tutorial )
nobody? tomorrow it will be on offer at 99€ and I'd rather buy it knowing what can I do with it... thank you all

So any help on how am I gonna root them both? Cause I couldn't sort it out my self.

What model number are the phones I9300 / I9305?
they are i9300t
I managed to root both of them. I know have a major problem. 1 of them had a problem with wifi. It couldnt connect. I read about a solution by copying the wifi folder from version 4.1.1. Tried that. It worked for once but after reboot it stopped. And now I can't even turn on the wifi. It gets stuck on Turning on... Do i have to reflash the rom again and if so how will i do that? It was stock rom on stock kernel. Only rooted. gt i9300t moder and build DUELL2.
Also can i flash a rom with different build over that? For example XXEMC2 that i have on my Greek galaxy s3?
I9300T rooting is the same as I9300 rooting, follow the guides of CF-Root 6.4 or CF-Autoroot. (I got a T model myself)
You can flash any I9300 rom also on the T model, therefore root is not 100% necessary. Full wipes are recommended for flashing different versions though.

just saw it .
For wifi, try a stock ROM (flash it new incl. wipes etc.), or try a different kernel, whereas the stock kernel should always work.

you can find (unrooted) stock roms for instance on sammobile.com or (rooted) stock roms here on XDA in the General section.
Easiest way to flash them is via Mobile Odin (gives you the option to keep root) or Odin (you will loose root but you can flash CF afterwards manually).
And yes you can flash any build that is made for the I9300/I9300T.
The only difference between both models is the frequency of the baseband (the T model is more optimized for 850mhz) whereas you even can use modems of the I9300 on the I9300T.

What do you mean by modems? Soz if I sound noob but I am new to Galasy s3. My previous android was ideos x5 and i had a miui rom on it.
The phone will be used in greece. Do you suggest me flashing the XXEMC2 rom that i have on my Greek S3 atm? Is there any chance of bricking it if i flash that rom on it?

There is a difference between the ROM's firmware (basically your OS, e.g. XXEMC2) and the modem (basically the part which gives you the connection to the next mobile tower and is managing the frequencies, e.g. DUELL2).
It does not matter that much what ROM firmware you use as they are nearly identical in each country (here and there dif. apps due to providers) but more that you use a modem that delivers in the country you are in. Hence, I would first try the modems of your region (you can find a list of all modems in the General section's modem collection).
Regarding the risk of bricking: there is always a risk, no one can guarantee you anything , whereas if you follow the guides you should be fine.

Ok. Here is the deal. My greek galaxy s3 which i recently updated is XXEMC2. The galaxy s3 with the wifi problem is DUELL2 bought in australia from a friend but will be sent to greece for my brother. So i should flash XXEMC2 on it? I just download XXEMC2 from sammobile and flash it with odin? It doesn't matter that the XXEMC2 is for i9300 as fas as I understood from what u said. right?

correct, you can use the I9300 versions of any rom for the I9300T as well.

Ok. So the CSC numbers that are different on lets say the DUELL2 and the XXEMC2 are not something to bother me right? I just download the XXEMC2 rom and flash it on the DUELL2 S3 and then I just will root it. right? Will the phone become i9300 after that procedure? or stay i9300t? So I know which file i should use to root it.
Soz for too many questions but the phone is not mine and I need to be sure for the procedure.

The firmware code (XXEMC2) should not be of concern.
The modem code (DUELL2) should be of concern IF you experience bad performance in the region you are. If so, flash a different modem and try it.
The phone will be an I9300T whereas in the menus it might tell you I9300, anyway there is no difference in the files to use.
For rooting, follow the guide, you can use CF-Root 6.4 (if you want a custom recovery) or CF-Autoroot (if you want to use stock recovery).

Thanks a lot mate. This helped a lot. I decided to go with the 4.1.1 version of its current region. Later if we see that it doesnt perform well here in greece we will flash the xxemc2 rom.
Ok i downloaded the rom from sammobile and the file name is this I9300TDUDLK1_I9300ZZZLK1_VAU.zip but i get an error message that says cannot open. file unknown or damaged :/ Why is that? Is this file meant to be named as md5?

To flash a rom via odin you need the md5 file, correct. Hence unzip or if you cannot maybe the download is corrupt?

Yeah you can until you can access ODIN/Download mode, just flash the ROM from there and it will be fine.
If you could root your phone I'll suggest you to try out neatrom as its very fast and smooth, I had GB but I never got experience like this ever before. :thumbup:

No no Sir I din't mean that ICS/Jelly Bean are not user friendly... They are very useful and user friendly but I comfort very much in Gingerbread. Last U used Galaxy R gingerbread os and now I used SGS2 Jelly Bean but I face some minor issue, 1) like phone does not lock power key or automatic option if enable, I mean to say that my phone does not lock, 2) One folder in SDcard name Ringtone & alomost 30 ringtone are their but when I play all of this or play one by one then its play but like name is another and play another ringtone and same thing happended when I go settings and selecting ringtone but this problem is only in this folder but oher folder are fine, name given another and play another and I don't like file manager cause its always enable file selected mode not like gingerbread,when U need then its show selected one not always but its not a big deal or prob but my main 2 problem is locking or display 1 name or play 1 file.
Thanks hope U can understand...
