Okay, I've got a question - Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0

I was wondering will anything on the 4.0 work on the 4.2? they are both android 2.3, both yp-gs1 (I think)
and it's basically the same thing minus a few hardware differences that I can see. Maybe I'm wrong, I've been wrong before.

nope. they are different devices and you will brick your device if you try to flash a 4.0 rom or kernel.

I see. I suppose that makes sense, I'm not the sharpest tool in the shed when it comes to mobile devices. My other question, which I asked in the Q and A section only to be ignored for the past two days is this:
is it at all possible to upgrade the 4.2 galaxy player to ICS or Jellybean?
I know this should be in a q and a thread and so on but really, I'm looking for an answer, not to be ignored for two days only to get a short answer that doesn't give me...well...an actual answer. I know how these sites work and usually that is what happens unless you make a new thread.

Well first you need a dev to get ICS/JB for the device. Currently I'm working on CM7 which is still GB but it's a start... And I'm not really an experienced dev it's just that there's really no one else to try it.

Wrong device, wrong section, wrong assumptions, and an apparent inability to realize that 2.3 > 2.2.2....
If you're gonna call me out on a quote, at least read it first?
Regardless of all that..
It's only a 500kb bugfix, so you have to already be on 2.2.1 to get it to bring you to 2.2.2, will check it out anyway - Thanks!
Let us examine this thread:
Is it development related?: No
Is it about the Vibrant?: No
Is it about a device similar to the Vibrant (Galaxy S/Nexus S)?: No
Is it in a section where it doesn't belong?: Yes

@ Jellette, yes, you have to be at 2.2.1 in able to see this big fixes, based on what I've read thru forums. And from what I gather from them, they started to integrate it to 2.2.1 for Galaxy S I9000.... But who knows?

[Q] ICS upgrade Keeps restarting

Hi all,
I got so excited today to get the new ICS update. But as soon as it was done, I got this weird looping restart. I have no idea what is causing it. I tried to update and I tried the emergency update like it's mentioned in this post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1731654
Can anyone help me? What am I doing wrong?
To make things worse, now I can't even connect to Kies!

Reread the post above yours. He put everything there FOR YOU. If the answer is not there it will be, ask THERE. Oh and spread the word it will help everyone else out too. Probly the most useful thread in AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717.
I was on that thread first and they were getting way off track. I wanted a solution to my problem, not an analysis of a black crush test, whatever that is.
Do we REALLY want ALL ICS posts on ONE thread? Imagine having all gingerbread posts on one thread. It makes no sense.
Pretty sure I had a similar problem to yours. It kept popping up a message "com.apple.phone won't launch" or something similar and would go in a bootloop.
Might've done it totally wrong but when I updated I still had CWM (so go flash CWM?) then wipe data wipe cache factory reset and everything should work.

Completely agree. I understand the impulse, but it's not very practical when you stop and think about it.

It won't stay that way just for time being when fitty different threads pop up to say the same thing like ICS official, AT&T official ICS release, ect once that dies down new threads about ICS will be allowed Im sure

Only thing that worked was this, full wipe and then it got better. Now it works great
The method in the second post of this thread worked great for me. I first tried installing the odin download and it would just boot to the samsung screen and stay there, so I did the emergency software recovery through Kies following the steps EXACTLY as given and had the upgrade loaded and running fine. 5 minutes later rooted and superuser installed.

I agree, too many conversations going at once
As opposed to every section being post after post after post after post of the same thing?
Just look how many threads there are of "do i need to unroot/flash to stock/sacrifice a goat at midnight to update to official ics?" already...

Xperia S - 4.0

Hi all,
Just wondering if anyone knew when the Xperia S is getting android 4.0/whether it was worth putting a custom rom on it, depending on how much time there is.
Thanks,
Storm08
Good grief!
This forum needs a like button

Last time I heard from Motorola that Xperia s will get 4.0 early next.year.

Read the features in the rom-threads and decide which one you like to try. It's the best way to find out.

Ok guys.
But if anyone has a ROM recommendation,feel free to leave comment.
they won't because of 2 little simple things:
- perception
- rules
If you don't report this thread as a "better ROM thread" someone else will.
