Root Galaxo 1.6.3 released!!

[Bomberman]

Hmmm, I've tried this repeatedly but it just fails immediately. Anyone got any ideas where I'm going wrong? JC6 goes on fine, as does Galaxo - it's just the Gapps

Right - I've been having a think and the only thing I can think of is that I didn't flash the CSC onto my phone (when I updated to 1.6) as I believed that was all rubbish? Is it or have I just made a real noob error?
Really want to get this to work as the 1.6 battery life is atrocious in comparison to the 1.5 I had. Less use, less widgets and it won't last me a day anymore

Hi
you havent made an error with how youve flashed although you may not want the jc6 radio (this can be changed later)

please use this file for gapps as its from my phone and works
http://www.yardimage.co.uk/files/i7500/galaxo 1.6.2/SAMSUNG.tar

so, wipe first, then apply update, then apply gapps and then reboot
should work

Hi,

i've tried the procedure for Galaxo 1.6.3 on Flash rom Galaxo 1.6.3.3 - Windows tutorial - Samsung Galaxy

the phone is detected properly

C:\AndroidSDK\tools>adb devices
* daemon not running. starting it now *
* daemon started successfully *
List of devices attached
I7500cgztMqW device

But every time, when i try to push the files to disk, i get following

C:\AndroidSDK\tools>adb push RECTOOLS.tar.gz .
failed to copy 'RECTOOLS.tar.gz' to './RECTOOLS.tar.gz': Read-only file system


please help me out....

You need to specify where you want to push it to, like this:

C:\AndroidSDK\tools>adb push RECTOOLS.tar.gz /sdcard/RECTOOLS.tar.gz

But i thought you need to put these files on the root folder..i.e. path should be "/RECTOOLS.tar.gz " !!.
how does Frojd 's command differ from mounting the phone as a USB drive and copying?

No, you need to put it into /sdcard/ folder.

I usually do it that way, seem easier for beginners too. But programmers may feel more at home with a command prompt and forget how it is to be a newbie.
