Re: [Android] NITDroid V2 Development Topic

Re: [Android] NITDroid V2 Development Topic
3d games are always gonna be rather bad without the powervr going, thats being looked at as mentioned though :)

Re: [Android] NITDroid V2 Development Topic
Motorola Milestone sources are here:
https://opensource.motorola.com/sf/g.../frs.milestone I don't think that the PowerVR drivers are there, though. |
Re: [Android] NITDroid V2 Development Topic
they are and we have people examining them as i type :)
|
Re: [Android] NITDroid V2 Development Topic
I also found this:
http://android.git.kernel.org/?p=pla....git;a=summary Seems to be support for OMAP3 in the Android kernel. There will be interesting things in there :) |
Re: [Android] NITDroid V2 Development Topic

Re: [Android] NITDroid V2 Development Topic
yep at the min its because froyo is a lot heavyer on gfx and everything is done in software at min (no hardware 3d etc) eclair was a fair bit faster as its not so demanding, its becuase its still alpha build though yes
|
Re: [Android] NITDroid V2 Development Topic
Hey dj_steve things are moving fast congrats.
Do you think Nitdroid Froyo on N900 will get everything worked out (excluding power managment and stability) before Motorola releases their OTA update to Froyo for the Droid/Milestone :) ? |
Re: [Android] NITDroid V2 Development Topic
havent a clue, possibly possibly not, im not making any promises i cant be sure of
|
Re: [Android] NITDroid V2 Development Topic
Looks like I'll have to get the new script with kernel flashing out soon ;)
|
Re: [Android] NITDroid V2 Development Topic
ok progress has been made folks, R&D is no longer a requirement, unless you want the battery reporting to work in which case it is - thats being examined

Re: [Android] NITDroid V2 Development Topic

|
Re: [Android] NITDroid V2 Development Topic

|
Re: [Android] NITDroid V2 Development Topic
Hi there! First of all I would like to say thanks to all the Dev's/hacker's With all that said
Edit: sorry :D but still thanks guys;) |
Re: [Android] NITDroid V2 Development Topic
yep its a known issue, android cant moutn mmc yet
|
Re: [Android] NITDroid V2 Development Topic
dont have access to irc, but if you release an update a bit later today (got stuff to do now, so not got time) ill give it a go on my spare which is pure vanilla meamo at the moment
|
Re: [Android] NITDroid V2 Development Topic
*sonic* theirs web access to irc on nitdroid site lol
and ill be puttin up howto shortly |
Re: [Android] NITDroid V2 Development Topic
ok here it is folks
Non-R&D Mode Kernel and RootFS this will break the battery status reporting in nitdroid temporarily (e-yes new build when i get it will solve that likely) Requirements Experience in flashing kernels rootsh on n900 *recommended* ssh on n900 bootmenu already installed and configured previously partitioned card for nitdroid these instructions are all to be done on the device except flash start of instructions : 1. in xterm/ssh Code:
sudo rootsh Code:
mkdir /and Code:
cd /and Code:
cd /home/user/MyDocs Code:
bzip2 -d NITDroid-N900-0.0.5-FroYo.tbz2 assuming your using a linux system here: download this : http://downloads.nitdroid.com/Jay-c/....NIT.01.tar.gz on your pc extract file Code:
tar xzvf http://downloads.nitdroid.com/Jay-c/zImage-2.6.28.NIT.01.tar.gz assuming your using a old nitdroid kernel with R&D enabled Code:
sudo flasher-3.5 --disable-rd-mode -f -k zImage-2.6.28.NIT.01 -R should be able to boot android without r&d, no big changes in this rootfs except modules and no battery reporting at moment. |

Re: [Android] NITDroid V2 Development Topic
hey djsteve, i take it android is booting from microsd card? but i thought the mounting the microsd card does not work in android?
|
Re: [Android] NITDroid V2 Development Topic
it does boot from microsd, and no the emmc wont mount in android (nor will microsds fat32) - bootmenu mounts the microsd ext3 so android can boot
|
Re: [Android] NITDroid V2 Development Topic
ah I see. Im familiar with linux but the instructions seem a little confusing.
basicall I create a ext2 partition on my memory card, copy android files to it, install bootmenu and point it to my microsd partition then flash n900 with that new kernel - and then I can dual boot??? is that correct steve? |
Re: [Android] NITDroid V2 Development Topic
@DJ_Steve: Shouldn't it be "sudo flasher-3.5 etc." in linux? :p
|
Re: [Android] NITDroid V2 Development Topic
not if ya runign as root anyway lol
edit: changed it |
