Re: NITDroid Gingerbread in work!
 

at last a Good News.. Read some where that froyo 2.2.1 (stable) will be available for N900 before 25th Dec (chrismis)... And Ginger before 31st Dec.. (NY)

This is not garanteed this is just what he is trying to achive

Re: NITDroid Gingerbread in work!
 

yep mistman is right.

Re: NITDroid Gingerbread in work!
 

For what it's worth, as a Motorola Droid owner (running 2.2.1 right now),a device that was released at 450MHz and newer stock kernels ramped up to 600MHz, with kernels to safely ramp it up as fast as 800MHz with a CPU governor (i.e. not much faster than the stock N900)...

There's already a community-compiled test copy of the Gingerbread ROM floating around for the Motorola Droid. It's unclear whether it's going to get pushed officially--probably not, but from what I've read, it seems that the CPU speed is definitely not an issue. More impressive to me is that reports are that 2.3 runs even FASTER than 2.2 on the Droid.

If this is accurate and Nitdroid gets 2.3, I can only imagine that the performance (overall) would only INCREASE at 600MHz, not suffer.

Re: NITDroid Gingerbread in work!
 

No, that's 3.0. Gingerbread was supposed to be 3.0 but Google decided to postpone it to the Honeycomb release. 3.0 will have 1 GHz CPU requirement, because it will have a graphically intensive UI.(2.3 is not that different that 2.2)

Re: NITDroid Gingerbread in work!
 

Please not exagerate.

Cortex A8 is faster than Arm11 but not always many times faster.

ARM declares it as near to 40-60% faster than Arm11 at same clock (so a Cortex A8 at 600MHz is like an Arm11 at 1.0GHz).

In some areas Cortex A8 can be even more faster than Arm11 if software uses widely some specific functions (NEON isa, double speed cache, double width bus, ...etc) that Cortex A8 has and Arm11 hasn't (or Arm11 has less efficient one)

This thread went from awesome to suck to awesome in the last 30 posts. I'm glad it turned around.

I was starting to become discouraged because there have been no updates that I could see since like September or maybe before. It's good to see that it's still going.

Re: NITDroid Gingerbread in work!
 

Is this a pic of 2.2 or 2.3 ?

Re: NITDroid Gingerbread in work!
 

android 2.3

Re: NITDroid Gingerbread in work!
 

Hi guys,

What about battery?? What's suppose to be "lighter"? 2.2, 2.3, or current Maemo 5 with default settings (no optimizer installed, nor OC)?

Thanks.

Re: NITDroid Gingerbread in work!
 

WIP: codecs, voicecalls, gps, camera.

It's already stable enough for him to target voice calls and GPS it seems.
Can't wait. It will make me utilize both OS's at will without compromise!

Re: NITDroid Gingerbread in work!
 

hello nit(riders),
is there any fixed date when gingerbread will be released? and what about the 0.0.9

Re: NITDroid Gingerbread in work!
 

looks pretty smooth, interesting if it's OC'ed or not

Re: NITDroid Gingerbread in work!
 

cant wait, looks so promising.. :)

Re: NITDroid Gingerbread in work!
 

0.09 is out and gingerbread in one or two weeks as e-yes said.

Re: NITDroid Gingerbread in work!
 

Are you sure of this? :eek::eek:

Re: NITDroid Gingerbread in work!
 

WIP = Work in progress.

So it is still not working yet. But at least he says he is working on it.

Re: NITDroid Gingerbread in work!
 

Battery life, in fact, is supposedly the main focus in 2.3.

Re: NITDroid Gingerbread in work!
 

Nice work e-yes. Video looks damn good.

Not sure if I want to install this and get rid of my current Nitdroid or wait for 2.3 to come out.

Re: NITDroid Gingerbread in work!
 

if you are going to use nitdroid often then get 2.2.1 else if you just want to check how things goes thenok wait for 2.3 but as it will be experimental expect far more bugs than in 2.2.1.

Re: NITDroid Gingerbread in work!
 

i'll wait for 2.3... keep up the good work! :)

Re: NITDroid Gingerbread in work!
 

need calls and gsm or 3G badly.....cos i dont have wifi...poor me!!!

Re: NITDroid Gingerbread in work!
 

just read on nitdroid fb page that they fixed strace and gingerbread would now be able to make real calls (with voice)
n new kernel version 35 has also been tested

Re: NITDroid Gingerbread in work!
 

Yeah strace is now fixed like many other things that e-yes stated these days but he didnt say anything about voice on calls.

Re: NITDroid Gingerbread in work!
 

Really.
And i thought he did it this time and worked on getting the phone function working.
