Hey.
i tried to root my galaxy by using that guide:
http://androidforums.com/samsung-i7500/24540-simple-rooting-guide-without-galax0-galaxher0-roms.html

and at Step 9 when i tried to get in to the recovery by pressing volume down + dial + power , i see black screen with triangle and "!" inside it and a phone laying next to it.
after few seconds its just start the phone normally.

what can i do to get into the recovery and enable the root?

Apparently you have not (successfully) flashed the custom recovery, as this triangle is Samsung's native recovery. Go back to step 7.

Yep, and the thread name is incorrect as you haven't really rooted your device yet ;)

they do work, just you have not installed them correctly

the drivers on that guide were modified and checked by me on all versions of windows from xp - windows 7 32bit and 64

well,
that part worked fine for me

Code:
"settings>applications>development>USB debugging)
If this has issues you can download the modified sdk drivers that i have tested and work from here

"
but still after i reboot my galaxy my pc dont reconize android 1.0
i tried to install samsung PC suite , same problem
and the last option of the guide
Code:
"This part also applies if you have problems with Fastboot.
alternatively check the post [URL="http://androidforums.com/samsung-i7500/13692-how-odin-galexo-rom-s.html"]here[/URL]"
(that guide http://androidforums.com/samsung-i7500/8801-using-i7500-x64-computer-drivers.html)
i just dont see any yellow exclamation icon.

any idea?

this means that somehow youve assigned the wrong drivers to the fastboot so you cannot find it
turn on debug mode and connect the device, and uninstall any samsung/android drivers you see
boot into fast boot and uninstall any samsung/android drivers you see
(if you are on windows 7 also pick the option to delete driver)
disconnect device
reboot machine
reconnect the device
follow the http://androidforums.com/samsung-i7500/8801-using-i7500-x64-computer-drivers.html for installing the samsung drivers (not ADB) for x64, you will need to do the wizzard a few times as it does modem and serial ports

once done the last driver left will be the adb one
install it using the ones i linked from my yardimage host
reboot into fastboot and you should see a exclamation mark in device manager saying "android 1.0"
point it to the adb drivers i provided
