Hello; I'm a noob at this. I have a Samsung Galaxy Fit GT-S5670L with stock rom Gingerbread 2.3.5 and I'm trying to root it. After following all the steps in the tutorial when applying update.zip I get this error (Status 7), it says:

getprop("ro.product.roduct") == "GT-B7510"

Should I change something in the zip file, update.zip>META-INF>com>google>android>updater-script?

Thanks for reply.

Edit: I'm using stock recovery.

Link 2 Sd not mounting my sd-ext partition....

every time while opening this app it asks for which partition I'm using and then asks for reboot

I chose ext3 as I'm using teejay's CWM

I even check the type of partition using Minitool and it says ext3 and primary

why Link2Sd not mounting sd-ext then?? plz Help

I'm using chocobread 3.2

And as it already has S2E so before doing all this I had uninstalled S2E using root explorer method.

I selected 512mb size

swap size= 0mb

I'm using verbatim class 4 sd card0(4 GB)
[Samsung Galaxy Fit GT 5670] a.cid:
I had used chocobread's previous version and had no problems...

Though in a few roms, sometimes, I have to select ext type as ext4...(don't know why :confused:, even though my partition was ext3)

Also, check whether link2sd has obtained root access, and if there is any error message, give us a screenshot...

If these ^ don't solve your problem, then reflash chocobread (doing all data wipe and stuff), and rather than uninstalling s2e, just freeze it...and then try...
[Samsung Galaxy Fit GT 5670] Nikhil_G:
Thanks a lot!!

Now its working perfectly

What I did is

1. Create fresh partition of 512 mb using cwm

2. Reflash the chocobread 3.2

3. Without opening s2e I firstly disabled it from chobread systeme setting

4. Then I installed link2sd

5. When I chose ext3 it showed can't create script some mounting etc. Error

6 so I choose ext4 in next try

7. It said script created successfully and asked for reboot

8. And after rebooting it mounted the second partition

And now its working perfectly !!!!

Hats off.... For the developer of this awesome app

And thank to you

Minor update

For your first custom ROM, I would suggest sticking to stock based custom roms...

Some sim cards aren't compatible for CM7 and CM9 (cm = short for CyanogenMod)...we don't know the cause and effect relationship between them, as of yet...

So, if your CM doesn't boot into the homescreen, try removing your sim card...

If it then boots up without any additional steps required, then unfortunately, you belong to the group of people who can't use CM7 with their current SIM...

The only workaround available are:

1. Use phone without SIM (unrealistic, since it wouldn't do the primary functions of a phone then)

2. Change your SIM card

3. Use stock based custom rom's, and forgo CM entirely​

I plan to add a few other topics...if you have any suggestions as to what could be possibly added, please feel free to express your thoughts...

Also, I would be grateful to you if you could add some relevant tags to this thread...

plz add

please say what is a kernel version and baseband version.

what is the relation of those with stock and custom roms.
[Samsung Galaxy Fit GT 5670] speed_bot:
fit has kernel version of 2.6.35.7 baseband for cm roms si gwk4 and differs in gb based roms........what is the relation that you are speaking about sir?aka relation refers to what?
[Samsung Galaxy Fit GT 5670] a.cid:
I'd like to add on what ajay said...

Baseband refers to the last stock rom that you had flashed...

While this isn't a technical explanation, it should be non-confusing...

When you flash a stock rom with odin, you re-write different partitions of your phone's system, with the new "set of instructions" present in the stock rom file (like modem etc)

Baseband shouldn't be much of a problem, unless you own a carrier locked phone...(flashing a stock rom of other region might give problems with net connection calls etc)

As you can see, my baseband is ddkq5, which means that the last stock rom that I had flashed with odin was ddkq5 (android v2.3.4)

Baseband also has some connections with the stability and performance of custom roms...{but I don't have much accurate knowledge in that}

Also, you'll see that most stock based custom roms will have written "this rom is based on dxkt7/ddkt3/ddkq5 (etc)"...

This means that the rom developer/cooker has chosen that particular stock rom as "base", made modifications to it...and thus made it a custom rom...

Sometimes, rom cookers/developers also add "flash this rom on baseband ddkq5/ddkt3 (etc)"...

This means that, for best performance/stability/battery life etc, you will first need to change your baseband (I.e. flash a stock rom), and then flash that custom rom...

{If you already have the same baseband, you don't need to change it unless you run into any problems}

{Edit: read the first few pages, and you'll get (hopefully) what I mean: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1558715

There was better thread in our forum, but the search is acting weird for me...I'll post it when I finally find it...}

Kernel is whole different thing...

As ajay said, most g-fit kernels have the same version...

Though the kernels amongst themselves would have different features (inspite being the same version)

[Samsung Galaxy Fit GT 5670] a.cid:
The root folder is the base folder where all your other files are stored...

The "root" of your sd card would contain other folders like .android_secure, dcim, bluetooth...

You probably haven't linked the files of the game/apk yet...and I think I've mentioned that you should do it on a clean install...

Open up link2sd, and check whether you get "linked->sd card" written under user installed apps...

And also, give a screenshot of "storage info", from within link2sd app...something like this:

About Link2SD

Before start, i'm sorry for my bad english :o

So, I have stock ROM for SAMSUNG. It's Gingerbread 2.3.6, S5670DXKT7

I already rooted it, and do SD partition from CWM. My SD Card is 8GB Class-10, and my 2nd partition size is 512MB

When Link2SD is asked for my format of sd partition, I choose ext3. But, Link2SD not accept it and give me a message.

Then, I choose ext2 as my sd partition format and Link2SD accept it.

I not sure if it's work or not. I already install so many games and it still cost my phone memory.

I hear that if Link2SD in stock rom didn't accept ext3 partition.. Please, give me some advice. Thank you
[Samsung Galaxy Fit GT 5670] a.cid:
To check if its working, open up link2sd, and after each app, you'll see a "Linked -> SD Card"

Something like:

Whatever is linked, it shall have a -> after it...

As you can see, the apk and dex of playstore and tapatalk is linked while only the apk is linked for go launcher...the dex of go launcher is not linked, hence that occupies internal memory...

Even after 78 user applications, I have plenty of free internal memory:

For example, I have 8gb sd card. Then 2gb is used to partition. So which part that I use? the 2gb or 6gb?
[Samsung Galaxy Fit GT 5670] a.cid:
You'll be using both, but for different purposes...

The 6gb (which will be of format fat32, by default) will be used for all your personal files like audio, media, etc...

The 2gb partition (which will be ext format) will be used by the phone as part of its internal storage, and will be inaccessible to you for media storage...

I don't recommend a 2gb partition, since it will be unusable/free for a very large part...

Go for 1gb partition at first...if you feel its insufficient later on, you can always re-partition it :)
