Catalysis of the transfer of monosaccharide from one side of the membrane to the other. Catalysis of the transfer of galactosamine from one side of the membrane to the other. Galactosamine is an aminodeoxysugar; D-galactosamine is a constituent of some glycolipids and glycosaminoglycans, commonly as its N-acetyl derivative. Catalysis of the transfer of a hexose sugar, a monosaccharide with 6 carbon atoms, from one side of the membrane to the other. Catalysis of the PEP-dependent, phosphoryl transfer-driven transport of substances across a membrane. The transport happens by catalysis of the reaction: protein N-phosphohistidine + galactosamine(out) = protein histidine + galactosamine phosphate(in). This differs from primary and secondary active transport in that the solute is modified during transport.
