Installed using installer, worked fine :)
Allthough now when I boot to maemo default kernel is used instead of titan's power kernel (I had it installed before running the installer). What should I do to get power kernel back in business?

Re: [REQUEST] NITDroid Installer app
 
plz go there :
http://forum.nitdroid.com/index.php?topic=84.0#lastPost

you'll find this :
dpkg -i /home/user/MyDocs/.nitdroid/multiboot-kernel-power_0.3_armel.deb

for kernel installed or updated AFTER installing nitdroid.

I'm already trying installing before

I see no point on posting problems / help requests to another forum (requires registration) since they announced the installer here on this thread.

Anyways, I already tried to install that and didn't help. Maemo still boots with default kernel instead of kernel-power.

Installed NITDroid on my Microsdhc.
When i first booted it came up with,
Complete action using,

com.android.provision.DefaultActivity

or

Setup Wizard


What does it mean?

ps. everything is working fine now.

clovis86 2010-08-17 20:13

Re: [REQUEST] NITDroid Installer app
 
as wrote it's the setup wizard to choose language and login with gmail account
dont really know if the choice between 2 got any impact ..

Have you tried re-installing the power kernel?

apt-get install kernel-power kernel-power-settings

then reboot.

kernel-power is already the newest version?:confused:

why oh why did i read the nitdroid-installer thread:rolleyes:

Re: [REQUEST] NITDroid Installer app
 
This is the solution that was posted on the NITDroid Forums to get kernel power and NITDroid working through Multi-Boot. It has worked fine with me

I needed this to work cause I use MobileHotSpot alot.

After a successful installation and boot up of NITDroid. You go back to Maemo.

Make sure Extras Devel is enabled

Re-install Power Kernel (This should install version 40):
Code:

apt-get install kernel-power kernel-power-settings
Then install the bootimg of Power Kernel:
Code:

apt-get install kernel-power-bootimg
Then use one of NITDroid debs to auto add Power Kernel as an option on the multi-boot list(This one of the things NITDroid auto-installer downloads):
Code:

dpkg -i /home/user/MyDocs/.nitdroid/multiboot-kernel-power_0.3_armel.deb

Try to re-install?

Code:

apt-get remove kernel-power
or
Code:

apt-get install --reinstall kernel-power
Then run "apt-get install kernel-power" again

Re: [REQUEST] NITDroid Installer app
 
I appreciate that you are having problems and do not want to join the NITDroid forum, but by posting here you are taking this thread way off topic.

This thread is a request for someone to create a GUI for the installer so options (such as OC etc) can be easily selected. With all these help requests here no develper is going to be able to get the required info and therefore we are less likely to get the app to make everything easier for everyone.

If you dont want to post on NITDroid (even though you can generally find your question already answered) at least start a new thread to keep this one clean.

Thanks.

leetut 2010-08-18 23:12

Re: [REQUEST] NITDroid Installer app
 
removed kernel power settings via app mgr
reinstalled it
still not working for me tho bro, cheers anyway

edit:
this thread was the first i found that wasnt locked!
ill flash phone now and avoid all nitdroid threads in the future:mad:

Re: [REQUEST] NITDroid Installer app
 
Hey guys, I'm new here and I've been reading this thread. I would like to know if it's possible just to get an emulator of sorts just for the Android apps because that's the only reason I want to use Nitdroid for the neat apps which I'm glad to pay for honestly. I like the autoinstaller though. Don't have my N900 as yet but I doubt I would install Nitdroid until it's fully stable with no one having any problems or a stable emulator for just the Android games or some sort of application for just the android games. Thanks

Re: [REQUEST] NITDroid Installer app
 
AN UNEXPECTECTED PROBLEM OCCURED,PLEASE TRY AGAIN LATER: is what i get when i try to open some apps like The browser and other apps. is it my memory card or?

ceroberts75 2010-08-22 06:27

Re: [REQUEST] NITDroid Installer app
 
i had to reflash my device and just reinstalled nitdroid today, but after it loads, it immediately blinks my led red and goes into dead battery and shuts downs android.

the battery is full and the maemo loads fine.


though i am only able to get my device to use the main stock kernel and the nitdroid kernel. i installed the power kernel 40 and it shows before i installed nitdroid, but will not work now that it is installed.

any ideas?

Yes, it is.

The whole infos are a little bit messed about some threads.
It tooks hours for me to find out why OC didn't works on Maemo after installing NITDroid and how to OC on Android.
Finaly all went to good. :D

exactly...i have been able to get the titan kernel to work and all to boot correctly now! yeah. but there is so much stuff on the thread, i cannot find where i read to OC the nitdroid kernel to make that run faster.


do you have the code and how/where to enter it, ie-back in maemo x-term, or is there a way i am supposed to do it when the nitdroid is up.

scorpio16v 2010-08-22 07:38

Re: [REQUEST] NITDroid Installer app
 
You must mount the Android partition on Maemo.

Code:

mount /dev/mmcblk1p2 /and
nano /and/system/etc/power.conf

It's described here:
http://forum.nitdroid.com/index.php?topic=92.0

You must edit the power.conf under /system/etc.

Different profiles are described here:
http://forum.nitdroid.com/index.php?topic=116.0

hint:
The unmount command didn't work for me, so I have to shoot down maemo and reboot to maemo. After that it was possible to boot NITDroid without errors while booting.
On this example it is described to edit the power.conf with nano,
but you can take your prefered texteditor

ceroberts75 2010-08-22 08:13

Re: [REQUEST] NITDroid Installer app
 
easy...but question.


when you have changed the freqs with nano, how to you save and close the nano in order to get back to the standard xterm to unmount?

Reynaltott:

It might be possible to get an Android emulator if you have enough money and a team of developers. If not, you should just wait for Nitdroid -- it's getting pretty good but isn't ready to go yet.

I think the red blinking led is where things are right now and will be fixed. Someone said it was because they had charged their battery with an external charger. Maybe, I have too, but I think it will be taken care of soon, I hope.

ceroberts75 2010-08-22 08:27

Re: [REQUEST] NITDroid Installer app
 
lol...guess what...i read the manual with ctrl+g (lucky guess that ^=ctrl)

then the ending commands are:

ctrl+O (oh)
enter (to save and close nano)

then


unmount /and



done.

i fixed it.

i think there were some kernel issues. after reinstalling the kernels and fixing the power40 kernel, and then over-clocking the nitdroid kernel, all is working smooth. just closed down nitdroid after testing and now going back to maemo.

:)

matts76 2010-08-22 09:08

Re: [REQUEST] NITDroid Installer app
 
Im still unable to sort out the blinking red led problem, ive tried all the solutions posted on the NITDroud forum, editing files and a kernel patch, which do work for a while but as soon as i replace the battery im back to the same blinking red led,
so if you use more than one battery with an external charger i think its just a case of waiting for the next update and hoping that fixes it,

@ geneven, if you do manage to fix this problem could you let me know please.
This is really starting to do my head in now :(

Ok guys, just to inform you, i just started making a gui for the current nitdroid installer (i am modding Jay-C's current installer, not writing one from scratch), and will be ready tomorrow:) (if i dont encounter any bizzare problems:confused:).

Excellent news!I was skimming over this just in case there was anything related to a gui and there was your little nugget!

You might want to consider heading over to the nitdroid forum if you need any info as its a lot more organised than this thread!

Guys,

Anyone found a solution to running nitdroid + mobilehotspot?
I tried following all the suggestions in this forum, but it's not working sadly.

If mobilehotspot isn't going to work, i'll have to part with nitdroid sadly... it's so fun to make my Friend here envy me. He has samsung galaxy i7500 crap with android 1.5 and I have 2.2 (:
(he doesn't know I can't make calls.... shhhhh)
