The Low Memory warning...

How can I make the NitDroid to install programs on this 3.5GB free and stop telling that is out of memory?

With this, i cannot install any app on the market android, it keeps stuck on "Starting download"

Any opinions?

Sorry for the bad english
Thank you guys!
Excelent work!



u can repartition ur memory card but u need to copy ur files first as they will be deleted

yes u can run both on different partitions

so basically i just need to copy the files to memory card (follow manuall installation method) and create an .item file for it?
no need to install kernel as its already installed?

mount the partition u want to install nitdroid on it
then tar the gingerbread to it

and after thet u can go to /etc/multiboot.d and make another copy of the existing item and edit it to match the partition u want

Thanks, that did it. I had reinstalled after putting the new image in but I guess it didn't take.
Thanks again.

Re: [TUTORIAL GIGA UPDATE] Do you smell it, do you? It's Gingerbread!
 
OK, I canīt solve my problem, I installed Gingerbread on the EMMC memory, but the android is saying that I donīt have enough space to install anything...
Can I put and MicroSD Card on the n900, to use as space, but keeping the NitDroid installed on the EMMC ?

luiscesjr 2011-01-01 23:24

Re: [TUTORIAL GIGA UPDATE] Do you smell it, do you? It's Gingerbread!
 
How dumb of me, the Nitdroid is already rooted.
( Rooted are the latest Froyo releases )
Just, on maemo xterm.:

Code:

root
mount /home /and
cp ( for example ) /home/user/MyDocs/Nitdoidisthebest.apk /and/system/app

Boot Nitdroid, and it's there!

Edit.: Forget everything, I rebooted, now Sdcard became MyDocs and shows everything...

1) I believe that you also need to install multiboot separately and when nitdroid is installed, it'll make its own file line in multiboot.
http://forum.nitdroid.com/index.php?topic=84.0
2) Yes, backupmenu has to be uninstalled, as per the instructions in the first post.

No, no, no, multiboot is already included in apt-get install nitdroid-installer package, and it will handle everything

This is because bme (battery management) isn't quiet stiff in Nitdroid, so you take the average of both readings :)

Ya, but be sure to have spair parts ----> haptic feedback on, then open the lens :p, the device will start rumbling till you get the tiny popup message: application camera not responding in other words I'm a mobile phone I'm not a ***** :p

Well then keep it to yourself. Seriously, we're all testing and having fun and sharing problems, ideas, jokes. It is a community where noobs and pros live happily. We all love Maemo, but at least this can let you test more android apps. So if you don't like it, don't be a troll, and show some respect to those devs.

Sorry, but I don't think anyone else has asked yet, and somebody has to be the first to do so. lol.
BTW If anyone watches QI this is the bit where my question would immediately flash up on the screen behind me and I'd lose points:)
So, here goes,,,,,,,,,,,,
Does the gingerbread update include a working flash as well?

EDIT. Hey where did the post above come from? lol That wasn't there when I typed this. honest.

Re: [TUTORIAL GIGA UPDATE] Do you smell it, do you? It's Gingerbread!
 
i already have 0.9 installed to my emmc.

how do i go about installation of gingerbread? do i have to uninstall everything then reinstall?

on which part of the first post should i start with?

is gingerbread using a new kernel or its still the one used by 0.9?

sansar95 2011-01-02 10:36

Re: [TUTORIAL GIGA UPDATE] Do you smell it, do you? It's Gingerbread!

yeah. videos work with 0.0.8 but not flash content. It won't let you install flash 10.1 even with the official installer downloaded. It starts but then says device not supported or something like that. That's why I was wondering if the lastest ginngerbread/0.0.9 solves this.

I just added a brief guide on how to apply the updates of gingerbread in the interesting stuff section of my first post. :)
