In case anyone is interested, I followed the guide (but used my own values and created 3 partitions) and it was fine.

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

Is the gingerbread port faster and hangs less than the 0.0.9 build?

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

can we also SEND sms ?

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

NO

When we can eyes will announce it for sure.
So for now just keep quiet & go play some Android games.

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

I know i read it somewhere, i think :S
but i cant find it again 153 pages is a lot..

anyways,
how do you fix the screen in gingerbread?
like when i play paper toss,
the screen is pushed up kinda?

where the n900 is written, its just black underneath.. its very annoying, because you cant see the whole screen and i love papertoss, is there a fix? or is it just the game?
rest is A'OKAY!

I installed gingerbread on emmc but android stays on flight mode. I know that phone calls do not work but I'd like to see network working. Can't find anything similar in this thread.

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

Long press the power button when there is power menu in that switch off the flight mode and as soon as it shows off then select power off and restart
this procedure work and i have done this couple of times

all the best

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

The problem is that as soon as it shows flight mode off it switches automatically on. Anyway, thanks for the help!

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

Someone have installed gingerbread and do the market fix, i didn't see some steps to follow.

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

Hello everyone. I'm using nitdroid 0.0.9 cause is more stable than gingerbread (for now), and i can't install any app from the market.. why? When N900 is downloading an app it remain write starting download, but dont happen anything. Bye from Italy, and thanks for all :)

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

@brighi92
I'm not sure if it's a nitdroid specific problem. Back when I had an android phone it did this and my friends' Droid X occasionally suffers from this.

If someone knew of a fix it'd be nice.

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

nitdroid 0.1 must be released tomorrow.

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

wt is better to install gingerbread or nitdroid 0.0.9

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

@shreyans
wait a few days for gingerbread. They've made some big progress over the pass couple of weeks.
As said on twitter, ofono is working as of a few days ago.

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

Hi there,

I installed Gingerbread and think it's great. However, my rootfs got full. i decided to uninstall but still have only 2% free, after disabling catalogs and doing apt-get.
My /and directory is still there so wondering if that's it but rm command doesn't work.

Any suggestions?

Keep up the great work, thanks!

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

Do you mean working voice calls??

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

The file isn't in /home/user/MyDocs if you've downloaded it to the Documents folder.
do this and try again:

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

I am kinda new to these things which is better and more complete Nitdroid 0.0.9 OR Nitdroid Gingerbread?

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

According to e-eyes on twitter,
Gingerbread is now the mainline development (twitter jan 6 "#gingerbread will be mainline for #nitdroid development. THEY FIXED STRACE!!! :D")
So, 0.0.9 will stay "as is". I would recommend gb althought it is still in experimental phase. Also, as said earlier, it appears that the ofono API is working now.

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

Well, they didn't precisely said voice calls :D, but the ofono API is use d for Voice calls, SMS, Cell Broadcast, Supplementary Services and SIM Phonebooks, among others

if u r new, 0.0.9 is good enough n is much less demanding in installation.

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

i have been using gb nitdroid fr about a week nw... bt wenever i switch on the browser and load any site the browser just shuts down at arnd 90% site loaded... anyone else has the same prob?

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

Ive got a little question about installing to emmc.

Is it possible to create a partition out of the internal memory so that if I choose to remove nitdroid it wont affect the maemo part of my system?

Last time I installed nitdroid 0.0.9 and put Gingerbread on top of it, then tried putting 0.0.9 over THAT again and so forth it all went to ****, and wobbling around in xterm trying to red myself of nitdroid completely for a fresh install was pure hell and led to reflashing the entire emmc and fw =P .

So thus Im wondering if there is a way to test this out some way that would make removal clean and easy?

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

i had the same problem at the start. to fix that, as soon as i started the browser, i stopped it, then i manually type in google.com, or if the page loaded halfway, just pick the desktop version. then go to settings and set that to ur homepage. no more crashing for me.

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

if you want to install gingerbread, uninsttall 0.0.9 or install or a different partition. Well this is recommended. and you cant install 0.0.9 over gingerbread :D
I'm guessing you used the rm-f command? should have deleted files using filebox...
you could repartition mmc and install on a diffferent partition or memory card.

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

Hm it seemed earlier in this thread that installing gingerbread directly over 0.0.9 was a good idea, doe reasons I cant remember riiight now :s .

Oh I did a lot of things. rm -f was not one of them. I just didnt realize that removing /and was a bad idea, I thought in my infinite stupidity that deleting files in that folder was riskfree, also it seems like a ton of files go out all over the place, and with no idea what to delete and what to keep it all went to hell =P .

Thats exactly what I want. Except the memcard, as I dont have one.

The question is: how do I go from me, who knows nothing of these matters, to actually achieving this =) ?

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

that was because some of the files were missing in gingerbread. but now gingerbread has got 3 different updates which completes the missing files... so new installation is recommended

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

Ah thats nice to know =) . But still seems a mess to remove if installed to emmc?

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

not really, follow the instructions on wiki... and use filebox to delete folders :)

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

Hm thats what I did last time ;) . Using Filebox. It was more the "what to delete" part that seemed weird. I deleted what the wiki said to delete, and **** got messed up on my phone. Like icons would disappear after I deleted certain files/folders. A lot of folders couldnt be deleted until I went down in the directory and found the specific file that refused to be deleted, and deleted it explicitly.

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

hmm not sure why :D i've personally done it more then 5 times and worked for me...

icons would disappear - this is when you deleted your whole rootfs not just /and folder :D :D

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

hmmm maybe I did something wrong during installation... ****it, Ill try again. Not sure wether to give 0.0.9 or Gingerbread a try, which would be the better of the two in your experience =) ?

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

0.0.9 is more stable for games and also internet. accelerometer is nearly perfect :D
wait for the next release of gingerbread if you want to install gingerbread :D
