Question [Q] samsung galaxy player 50

My sister have a Galaxy Player 50 with eclair...this PMP seems to be the same as the galaxy 3 (same resolution...and some other things) so can I flash lestatious or other rom on it ?

This hardware is not a phone...but maybe ?

Maybe I can try to flash...but if the pmp become soft bricked...it's over since i can't found an galaxy's 50 firmware...

Darius, I'm stuck with a brick galaxy player. I can try to flash with a galaxy 3 firmware if you want
Do you know how to make a dump of your device so you can share with me the original firmware?

I dont think that its possible, first of all, despite being an android device, it doesnt have radio features, gsm 3g etc, only wifi, there are features that our phone does not support

Anyone found a solution for this yet? Not being able to test this device to it's full potential is really frustrating. Games are laggy and apps just do not run smooth on this one.

Has anyone tried z4root on this? I did and it freezes at "acquiring root shell".

@fedeff: how did you brick it?

First root using One click root.
Give these commands in Terminal emulator
su
mount

Check for system partition.Suppose it is stlx (x=6,7,8 etc depending on system partition)

give this command to dump system...

dd if=/dev/block/stlx of=/sdcard/factoryfs.rfs

Copy it from sdcard and upload. I need to check it then i can help u out.


My Devices:
MicroMax Funbook- P300 (DEAD )
Samsung Galaxy 3 (Lost)
Karbonn A9+
Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 GT-P3100 (Stock Samsung JB)
Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 GT-P3110 (CM10.1 RC2 & APSPA 3+)

I'd gladly try it as long as Samsung gives me firmware, don't want to end up with a nice looking little brick here.

Is there any way that that an installer/firmware file could be saved in the device for backup purposes or something?

@arunmcops: Thanks for the instructions. If someone try this and upload it'd be great for me.
@anon3524: I accidentally reseted the device to factory, trying to fix a problem with wifi (it suddenly stopped working one day).
