Re: [Android] NITDroid V2 Development Topic

Re: [Android] NITDroid V2 Development Topic
 

it may not be perfect but it does work :)

Re: [Android] NITDroid V2 Development Topic
 

Ok I got wifi working :)

Re: [Android] NITDroid V2 Development Topic
 

No, it is perfect :D

Re: [Android] NITDroid V2 Development Topic
 

is dualboot possible allready or do i have to wait? because some posts say something about dualboot?

Re: [Android] NITDroid V2 Development Topic

Re: [Android] NITDroid V2 Development Topic
 

yep have a watchof the 3 latest vids on my youtube channel

Re: [Android] NITDroid V2 Development Topic
 

is there a manual online? that's easier then looking on youtube all the time.

but i really apreciate everything you do for android on n900.

but this is android 1.6? how far are you with 2.1?

Re: [Android] NITDroid V2 Development Topic
 

no the howto was done before 2.1 wifi was perfected the root fs is 2.1

and the howto is mostly the same as one on page 30 except diff kernel and rootfs and fact you need bootmenu instaled - im sure someone here can write up a howto for me thoug h:)

Re: [Android] NITDroid V2 Development Topic
 

pff i really wanna try this but i dont know anything or not much about terminal and i have windows 7 and i need some linux vm???

Re: [Android] NITDroid V2 Development Topic
 

you do ideally need linux of some sort yes,

edit: for those of you asking about market i am currently testing a couple of the openm market apps (andappstore and sam) to see if they work or not, will likely put up a root fs shortly if they do

Re: [Android] NITDroid V2 Development Topic
 

yeah and i dont know anything of this software and wich to use? so i think i better wait for a better dualboot program

Re: [Android] NITDroid V2 Development Topic
 

I might do some kind of tutorial if I ever get around actually installing it :D

Re: [Android] NITDroid V2 Development Topic
 

what version of windows 7 are you running ?

Re: [Android] NITDroid V2 Development Topic
 

any chance to get this work with titans kernel?

Re: [Android] NITDroid V2 Development Topic
 

what linux vm software do you recommend?

Re: [Android] NITDroid V2 Development Topic
 

at min the kernel im using is provided by e-yes so id ask him if he'll add the other patches :D. and nielsvg you could always download ubuntu and just boot your pc from the cd then it doesn touch your current os

Re: [Android] NITDroid V2 Development Topic
 

dj steve,

and vmware? i use windows 7 starter on netbook

Re: [Android] NITDroid V2 Development Topic
 

ahh lack of cd drive could be an issue their lol. try vmware yes as the workstation version is available as a free trial - or use virtualbox as its opensource and free

Re: [Android] NITDroid V2 Development Topic
 

ok thx i'm gonna try:)

Re: [Android] NITDroid V2 Development Topic
 

justy use a os like damn small linux or similar - ubuntui will struggle to run on a netbook in a vm

Re: [Android] NITDroid V2 Development Topic
 

what do oyu mean a small linux? what do you recommend?

Re: [Android] NITDroid V2 Development Topic
 

google for a linux distro called 'damn small linux' (DSL for short) its a linux distro thats only about 150mb in size but be ample for what you need

Re: [Android] NITDroid V2 Development Topic
 

Damn small inux can be run from USB Memorystick too (this would work in a netbook).

Re: [Android] NITDroid V2 Development Topic
 

do i have to download everything?

Re: [Android] NITDroid V2 Development Topic
 

Ty for your work dj_steve.

How do you find enough free time to doing all this work ?


Somebody could write the how-to in this post or in the wiki ?
It's very hard for to me to follow video tutorial (i'm form old school, I need to read to tutorial, not to see it :) ).

Re: [Android] NITDroid V2 Development Topic
 

try dmesg in xterm and check that the n900 mem card is sdb

Re: [Android] NITDroid V2 Development Topic
 

howto that basicly matchs is on page 30 :) just the kernel and rootfs that need changing

Re: [Android] NITDroid V2 Development Topic
 

ok ive just updated the first post of topic with latest info :) anyone want to check my edit for any obvious mistakes - also new rootfs for n900 is up now check page 84 or first post for link and details

Re: [Android] NITDroid V2 Development Topic
 

i flashed the kernel etc...now my keyboard has crazy lights too..

flashes the stock kernel back...this has not fifx this problem...any ideas to fix this?

Re: [Android] NITDroid V2 Development Topic
 

As has been said multiple times the keyboard lights are from r and d mode disable it and they disappear

Re: [Android] NITDroid V2 Development Topic
 

sry my fault..its late here and i was very suprised to see blinking lights on my keyboard

Re: [Android] NITDroid V2 Development Topic
 

Lol the lights are coolfor a while

Re: [Android] NITDroid V2 Development Topic
 

If you want the homescreens to be smooth, I suggest LauncherPro. It's free and really increases the eye candy.

Re: [Android] NITDroid V2 Development Topic
 

maybe in /etc/mce/mce.ini we could find an answer to the keyboard lights issue

Re: [Android] NITDroid V2 Development Topic
 

ok thanks to qwerty12 we have a solution for keyboard crazy lights

Edit /etc/pmconfig and change "sleep_ind 1" to "sleep_ind 0", then reboot

so lets try and let me know if that works for you
