Root Live Wallpapers in samsung galaxy 551

Try these commands :D

#cp /sdcard/LiveWallpapersPicker.apk /system /app/LiveWallpapersPicker.apk [error something like the command is incomplete]
#cp /sdcard/libRS.so /system/lib/libRS.so [error something like the command is incomplete]
#cp /sdcard/librs_jni.so /system/lib/librs_jni.so [ok[
#reboot

thanks for such a prompt reply tried above but it dosent seem to work, so I tried the simpler method suggested by you

1. Mount /system in r/w mode
2. copy LiveWallpapersPicker.apk to /system/app
3. copy libRS.so [it says file already exist, do yo want to overwrite - i said NO]
4. librs_jni.so to /system/lib
it seems to be working though I am yet to download some live wall papers
thanks

yeah ,you need to set permissions to
LiveWallpaperPicker.apk(rw-r-r)
The two libs (rwx-rw-rw)

type

Code:
#chmod 644 /system/app/LiveWallpaperPicker.apk
#chmod 755 /system/lib/libRS.so
#chmod 755 /system/lib/librs_jni.so
P.S.
the two libs are already present in Gingerbread which are superior to the above libs ,.(Fixes many mipmap errors only For GB)
Just copy LiveWallpaper.apk to /system/app and set permissions to rw-r-r
