Looks like this is happening with other Galaxy Players. Spoke to Wendy from IBA who has the GP 5 and her installer hangs, then gives up.

I think I have found and replicated the issue.
The error is "Failure [INSTALL_FAILED_DEXOPT]" which is basically a complaint that the APK is too complex. It is a bug fixed in new versions of Android, but one we need to fix if we want it to run on these devices.
Essentially, we need to cull our JAR files a bit.

Sitting here with Wendy Betts right now, and we did a bit of debugging on her Galaxy Tab device. As noted, the apk install didn't complete. So, I removed the Google API .jars from my source code (in an effort to "cull our JARs"; we're not using them currently anyway), recompiled, and installed directly onto Wendy's device.
At first, I had an error: the install timed-out (perhaps this is related to what's happening in Android's package installer, but I'm just not able to see under that hood?) Then I changed my properties in eclipse, setting the ADB connection time out to something larger than the default 5000 ms, and it worked: Wendy was good to go.
This isn't a fix, but it was good to find a workaround that got that device up-and-running, albeit outside of the HockeyApp ecosystem. Any advice?
