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

Anybody know if you can install this on N800? With all the good news about Meego, Android and Ubuntu possibly working 100% some day on the N900 maybe its time for me to retire my tablet and move up to Maemo5 aye!! Has anyone installed run this yet? http://www.skyfire.com/product/skyfire-2-0-for-android/

Well, I sure do not like that feature, it heats up the N900, use battery and finally crashs the nitdroid. Any way out? Currently I keeps on uninstall seldom used apps, but not ALL apps can be uninstalled, like the one comes with Froyo, Amazon mp3, it refused to uninstall.

Any how, my common sense, this feature kills battery/memory, not true?

Another question, some apps can put an icon on the top border, which allows one to use any time they want, like Advance taskman, taskman apps, etc, what do you call that feature, I want to look for that feature for BT/wifi apps so that I can open/close wifi/BT without having to get out of an app.

Froyo´s problems with task managers are widely known by the Android Community: http://androidforums.com/droid-all-t...ers-froyo.html

Some says that Task Killers are not necessary in Froyo - Google developers included - others disagree, like you and me.

Not an NITDroid problem, but a Froyo "feature", like I was saying before.

Call audio and airplane mode are NITDroid known problems, yet to be resolved. And it will be resolved, be certain of it. 0.0.9 is coming up soon.

The N900 heating problem exists because N900 run full processing all time. The "on demand" mode has yet to be implemented on NITDroid too. It´s not because the background programs.

Great part of the Android native apps can be removed simply deleting the respective .apk from the root directory. I removed the Amazon MP3 app from my old CLIQ simply doing it.

For "on-off" wi-fi, bluetooth, airplane mode, we had that...I can´t remember well, but I think the name is "Beautiful Widgets".

Thanks for the info on Beautiful widgets. Widgets puts on/off on desktop, they are fine. I prefer power settings. However, in order to get to desktop one still requires to get out of whatever you are doing, then do your settings then get back in. What I ask is icons stays on the top border, like taskman, that can be used without having to exit your app. I want to know what feature is that and how to look for an app to have that for BT/wifi.

Trying to get angry bird with absolutely no success. DL the lite.apk from 3 sources and all are the same file length, I guess the file is fine, just cant install. Anybody has luck with angry bird, lite or full? TIA,
