Re: Nitdroid today, auto-installer and 1st impression and 0.0.8 installation
 

Just use the Hardware buttons with the "gas" touchscreen option...the arrow keys allow you to brake,gas, and turn. And the enter key is the nitrous...

And another tip for the Asphalt 5 players:

I discovered that if you choose the "touchscreen" option in the controllers menu, it also enables the "d-pad" or arrow keys to drive and "d"key is for nitrous and "x" key for break...
Just a tip to everyone that prefers keyboard insted of touchscreen (like me) ;)

I was just about to ask about that. Can most games with multitouch controls be controlled with the keypad?

Also I saw some videos on youtube of psx4droid running quite nicely but most people said they're not able to run it. Do I need to do something in particular to make it run on the latest nitdroid build?

A lot of pages to run through but hopefully some can help

I am unable to add an APN to use the 3G function. I follow the instructions on adding an APN, hit "save" but the list of APN's remains blank.

Update: Got this resolved (not sure how) but i cannot connect to the 3G. "Data Enabled" is set to yes.

Re: Nitdroid today, auto-installer and 1st impression and 0.0.8 installation
 

Dear friends,
I'm planning to install NitDroid very soon, but I have a couple of questions before.
1) What exactly does it mean with "telephone partially working"? I would be happy if I'm able to place/receive calls/sms under "2-2.5G".
2) What happens if I change/take out the sd card under Maemo? And what if I restart with a different card or without any?
3) Finally, it says that updates would be available through the app manager like any other app. I would like to know what is the extent of it. Will it upgrade NitDroid, formatting the sd again? Or just update some files?
Believe me, I was trying to read the whole thread, but I couldn't find the answers. Sorry for the inconvenience and many thanks for your answers!
Cheers,

1) No audio on phone calls. You can receive SMS. Haven't tried sending.
2) Nothing under Maemo. It would fail to boot to NitDroid, you could still boot to Maemo.
3) I believe that refers to the installer / multi-boot. Updates to the filesystem would still be downloaded through the installer or separately. The whole filesystem may need to be updated, resulting in having to redo app install and settings.

The microphone doesn't work (and I think the speaker that's on the front of the device). Hence you can't talk.

Thanks for your responses!
I was waiting for the telephone to work before installing, but I can't wait!!! I'll give you my comments...

+/- out of topic:
Having NitDroid is a good way to decide if my next mobile will be Meego or Android...

Re: Nitdroid today, auto-installer and 1st impression and 0.0.8 installation
 

The Internal GPS doesn't work so Google Maps probably won't work. Users who have it working are using an external bluetooth GPS unit.
