Dropbox, the renowned online sore and share service, is now available on Android market, let you opening all your synchronized files on your android device (pdf, mp3 streaming..).

I used dropbox since a long time, sharing some files with friends, or to backup some important files.

Now, i can store a pdf or anything file (text file, mp3..) on my dropbox share using one click (combined with Nautilus on my ubuntu), and read it during the day on my Android device…Very nice !

Try it, you will be charmed

This is the last recovery image for Galaxo, exactly the same as version 4.6.2, but with fixed issue while formatting ext sd (for swap & compache backup swap).

Because of new Samsung’s modified drivers are included in 2.6.29 sources. It doesn’t support ad-hoc mode, and essid configuration… when trying to enabling this mode, the kernel crash, and then, the interface seems to be frozen… i see the network, but i’m unable to send/receive data from the interface.

I’ve tried a lot of thing, to offer you tetherwifi, spending a lot of hours, but i failed :

• Porting BroadCom opensource driver : failed, module doesn’t detect build-in galaxy wifi chipset.
• Porting old 2.6.27 drivers to 2.6.29 : failed, it’s crash the device..
• Porting Spica BroadCom 4325 drivers : failed..

We can’t use another devices or opensource driver, because Samsung use direct I/O with the motherboard, to enable, disable, changing mod of the chipset.

Yeah, like the rest, Samsung have also modified the broadcom drivers.

Sorry guys, there will be no tethering in Galaxo 1.6.3.
