Custom Recovery for Galaxy Player 4.2? - Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0

Are there any custom recoveries like CWM for this player? I need to install some packages but I can't because of the stock recovery. Any help would be appreciated
Sent from my YP-GI1 using xda app-developers app

im not familiar with the 4.2 but i dont think that there is CWM
i found a guide at XDA University. Maybe you can port CWM?

Well, I don't understand some of the stuff it says on there. Would someone with a 4.2 be kind enough to port this?

There's only this for us as far as I know.
Not a lot of development yet.

Yeah I have mine rooted, but porting CWM like the other guy said might be a good idea.

I'd recommend looking at https://github.com/Entropy512/initramfs_yp-g70 for how it was done on a similar device, although you probably can't take most of the files directly.

I don't understand much of developing, what do I do with the link you posted?

Look on the commits tab for the commit on Jan 11, 2012. That will show you what he changed to add CWM. To really use it, install git (in Linux) and run
Code:
git clone https://github.com/Entropy512/initramfs_yp-g70 && git checkout 0b684e3b2601bd
That will download the files exactly as they appeared then. You can try copying the files in /sbin to your initramfs, and performing similar modifications to the init script, and creating an appropriate recovery.fstab (run "mount" in a terminal on your device to see which partitions go with which folders).
See http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/Extract_initramfs_from_zImage for how to get your initramfs.
I can't help too much as I don't have your device.

Thanks for the help! However I have no clue of android development. If someone knows how to do this and has a 4.2, please do it! I think the 4.2 needs more development

could you maybe make a thread about your porting process for everyone to see??
btw i tried installing the rom but installation fails with status 6 error, did you use the first or second cm9 alpha??
status 6 error has to do with a mistake in the updater-script, did you maybe forget a bracket or ; ?
Ok. I try it.

I've been wondering the same thing as in the old days when I had my Eris that is how I first rooted it.
That would be theme tools, I want to do a ground up Rom with extras and theme it.
I am wondering if I import cm9 launcher to say viperrez if it would break everything else.

If you are familiar with ROM building, it should be a simple transfer of system apps and permissions.

Im kinda a noob at this. Rom building isn't my strong suit. Yet!
There are plenty of guides about custom ROM building but the best way is to download CM10 copy it to your desktop and open it up with win rar and just look inside it. That's primary how I learned

Not a problem. Anything I can do to help the community and keep development on our phones alive.
If I'm not top busy today I'll set up a git for everything. I'm no programmer by any means but it may prove useful to someone else.
To anyone who IS a dev, paranoid android open sourced their holo notifications.. Would be great to merge that with our CM.

No thread for i527 why?

I am very sure it has been brought up in the i527's infancy, but it is now 3 or 4 months old. So why is it there is no forum designated specifically for the i527?

I appreciate it but AT&T is different and there is a bootloader issue. But it is the sifting through all the other versions of this device that makes it difficult. If you ask me, it is also inviting the person who is categorized as the newbie to flash incompatible files and brick their devices. I know better, but it is still possible. Who is to say someone labels something wrong. All it takes is one to blurt out, "hey, this will work on Joe Blows phone", and its all over.
