That sounded like a tough one. Is your SD card alright? try to write something, see wether it is read only. If you are able to write, then see whether manually delete the file will work. I have NOT seen such error yets, from all the postings, you are the 1st :)

If it is read only, means your card is screw up, need to be format, not a big deal. If all fails, you can do a low level format, that always works, unless the card is physical damage. the low level format is called panasonic low level formatter.

post back for Q, we will take you thru,....btw, you are rooted, are you?

Hello, Has anybody heard about Taintdroid privacy monitoring?

It sounds like a feature that should not be missing in an Android version running on the N900 :)

http://appanalysis.org/index.html

Check out the demo movie of that wallpaper app being caught red handed :p

I happened to notice that on the 13th the source code has been released for use by custom rom builders - it says Android 2.1 Nexus One compatibility but, who knows it can be implemented in Nitroid?

Downloading NitDroid-0.0.8-Popov.tar.bz2.....|

help?? to fix


From nitdroid forum:

http://forum.nitdroid.com/index.php?topic=495.0

and

http://forum.nitdroid.com/index.php?topic=141.0


Here's some more from the wiki (per this discussion http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=62826&page=2):

- DO THIS FIRST:

Step 1: Partitioning

To be able to install the "sudo gainroot" command you need to install a package called rootsh from the application manager first!

1. Open up the xTerm and become root with this command:

sudo gainroot

2. First un mount the microsd card

umount /dev/mmcblk1p1

3. For this step you need to know the capacity of your memory card. The Android partition can only be 2GB, so you need to create a FAT partition that is so large there will only be 2GB left. The number must be in MB, example some recommended sizes are 1, 100, 2100, 6100, 14100, 30100. If its 8GB you can choose a number like 6100MB, if its 4GB you can choose a number like 2100MB. If your memory card is 2GB or below, you can choose 1MB as a number If you do not do this correctly you will not be able to use Android Market!

sfdisk -uM /dev/mmcblk1 << EOF

,<YOUR NUMBER IN MB>,C
,,L
,,
,,
EOF

for a 8GB card:

sfdisk -uM /dev/mmcblk1 << EOF
,6100,C
,,L
,,
,,
EOF


4. Unmount microsd again as maemo sometimes tried to mount

umount /dev/mmcblk1p1

5. The actual formating!

mkdosfs /dev/mmcblk1p1
mke2fs -L NITDroid -j -m0 /dev/mmcblk1p2

- THEN USE THE AUTOINSTALLER

PR 1.3 noted

=======================================
For the German Nitdroid adm, I have flashed whatever that was released this morning to 20.2010.36-2 from 19-1 this morning, not sure it is 1.3 or whatever, it wiped out your nitdroid installation and the multiboot menu. I went thru the installation instruction on this forum, it just went thru just fine, and now my nitdroid is up and running. One mistake I made, I did not backup my aps and desktop setting before. So, it took me close to 2 hours, still working to reset my desktop settings as well as all my favorite apps to reinstall. otherwise everything is the same, business as usual.

I repeat, I flashed the maemo5 update that was caught this AM, and my about product is 36-2, dont know wether this is the same as PR 1.3

Nitdroid works just fine, so far, wifi works, audio works, no apparant changes/hiccup noted.

Edit: Just check, it apparantly is the PR 1.3

================================================== =========

I repeat: Make backup of yours apps and the desktop, then there will not be any fuzzy after upgrade, I am still working on my mistakes, re-install all my apps and seset my desktop, it easily took an hour :(

i used the auto installer, and i just realized that it said it is downloading Nitdroid 0.0.8. i thought the auto installer installs 0.0.7?
