on Mac OS, running "gomobile init" gives an error:

/Users/daniele/GoDev/bin/gomobile: go install std for android/arm failed: exit status 1 go install runtime: mkdir /usr/local/go/pkg/android_arm/: permission denied

the owner of my Go installation is root with "pkg" directory having 755 permission
if I run "gomobile init" as a non-root user, it doesn't allow to create directories
if I run "sudo gomobile init", it tells me that GOPATH is not defined for the root user

Please try go get -u. A recent change to gomobile means it should no longer try changing your GOROOT
