Galaxo 1.6.3.3
New version for Galaxo : 1.6.3.3 ! What’s up ? … TetherWifi is back !
Sometimes, we seek for something complicated.. kernel, drivers, device…and the solution is very simple : firmware.
Since Donut, Samsung had removed ad-hoc support, not from kernel, or drivers, or Android itslef, but only from the firmware, named rtecdc.bin. Cupcake version of the firmware work fine for our use, so, why not using it on Donut release ?
That’s done now.
How to install tetherwifi on Galaxo 1.6.X ?
1) Manuel way
- Take rtecdc.bin from a cupcake release (official or not)
- Push it on your device, named as /system/etc/rtecdc_adhoc.bin
- Download and install the last version of tetherwifi, included Galaxy support, and third party firmware support, 2.0.2, here : http://code.google.com/p/android-wifi-tether/.
- Enjoy TetherWifi !
2) Recommended : Automatic update to Galaxo 1.6.3.3 from Galaxo 1.6.3.2 (no need to wipe, no need to reinstall, just a patch)
- Download the patch here : https://www.drakaz.com/FILES/GALAXY/?file=Galaxo_V1.6.3.3_PATCH_from_1.6.3.2.zip
- Reboot in recovery mode
- Choose “Apply any zip from sd”
- Choose Galaxo_V1.6.3.3_PATCH_from_1.6.3.2.zip
- Apply update
- Reboot
- Enjoy TetherWifi !
2) Full 1.6.3.3 update

Enjoy !

I installed new version this afternoon. Flashed JC6 (1.6) than upgraded to Galaxo.
I must say that speed difference comparing to IK5 (1.5) is noticeable. It seems Galaxo is slower. I must say I didn’t test it very much, but seems that iGO Myway is loading slower and catching satellites slower than IK5.
WiFi tether is fantastic option so I don’t like idea of uninstalling Galaxo, but if navigation doesnt work as I expect I’ll have to.
Bit i will try to flash IK5 baseband only first to see how it behaves.
I’ll get back with this issue.

It’s possible to update to 1.6.3.3 from 1.6.3.1 without wipe using Galaxo_V1.6.3.3_PATCH_from_1.6.3.2.zip. I’m not sure if all things from 1.6.3.2 would be implemented with that patch. 🙂

Hello Drakaz!
I own a Samsung Galaxy on which I installed Galaxo V1.6.3.3…
* Modelnumber: GALAXY
* Firmware-Version: 1.6 – Galaxo V1.6.3.3
* Baseband-Version: I7500XXII5
My problem is that the devices crashes quite often. Sometimes when I browse the net, sometimes when I use GPS and Google Maps and even when the phone is in standby I noticed restarts. Until yet I tried many things…
* Compcache ON/OFF
* Overclocking OFF/614Mhz/710Mhz
* Renice ON/OFF
* Reinstall Galaxo
* Check for ext-Errors
* Check for Application permissions
* …
Noting helps. I can’t locate the problem, and I hope that you might help me out.
Thanks
Christoph
