Re: [Android] NITDroid V2 Development Topic
 

What is the latest kernel?

Is it

2.6.28.NIT.03.tar.gz

Re: [Android] NITDroid V2 Development Topic
 

yep 03 is newest (its included with multiboot though

Re: [Android] NITDroid V2 Development Topic
 

I have been away for a while so I'm not up to date on what has changed. I've also never installed Nitdroid.

If I follow the instructions at the following adress, is that all I need to do?

Re: [Android] NITDroid V2 Development Topic
 

yes, everything is explained there.

Re: [Android] NITDroid V2 Development Topic
 

steve,
can you compile the dual boot kernel with a nice gui instead of the post boot script grub? is it possible to make it similar to Macintosh dualboot screen?

Re: [Android] NITDroid V2 Development Topic
 

whats point in gui for a bootloader. pointless exercise imho

Re: [Android] NITDroid V2 Development Topic
 

Ehy Dj... any news? :)

Re: [Android] NITDroid V2 Development Topic
 

giu boot loader is nicer to look at. The post boot message makes the N900 look like it going to break lol. i don't mind it on the computer or my ps3 though but those are handy when i'm trying to find out what drivers and processes are running and failed during boot time. For N900, it a little pointless since most users just want to dual boot. They don't care much about those preboot messages.

but if it's not possible to somewhat hide the text and replace it with an animation or still image then it won't be can't do much. lol.

Re: [Android] NITDroid V2 Development Topic
 

Anyway Steve, please keep up the good work :)
You are the man! I'm waiting for the full operatible stable Froyo Os to use as my daily OS over Maemo5.

Re: [Android] NITDroid V2 Development Topic
 

Daft question, but is there anyway of being able to pause the boot process so you can read what the messages say :)

just in case of any errors loading things in

Re: [Android] NITDroid V2 Development Topic
 

As I recall, you can't pause it, but would also be helpful, is if there was a way to output that text to a text file. This would allow you to then post sections of the output here for people to read....

Re: [Android] NITDroid V2 Development Topic
 

Try dmesg :)

Re: [Android] NITDroid V2 Development Topic
 

im new to this.jus wondering is there anyway to port sony ericssons timescape to the n900 with 1 of the versions of android?

Re: [Android] NITDroid V2 Development Topic
 

I installed Nitdroid for the first time today. It feels very slow, is that the way it runs at the moment or have I maybe done something wrong?

Re: [Android] NITDroid V2 Development Topic
 

In the current build, Android is very slow... but in the next maybe.. :D

Re: [Android] NITDroid V2 Development Topic
 

@ All Devs, good work so far and thank you! It looks good even though it's a bit slow!

Is there a way to get portrait mode for the home screen? I see it rotates in the menu but when the menu is closed it goes back to landscape.

This question has probably already been asked but I'll ask anyway, has development reached the point where it should detect the mobile operator? In my case it shows the bars with an x and scanning for mobile operator gives an error.

The next is more fast :)

See it Byte.

Now we must only wait :D

Re: [Android] NITDroid V2 Development Topic
 

would a 1gb card be ok???if so what limitations would it bringgg

Re: [Android] NITDroid V2 Development Topic
 

Should present no issues at all.

Re: [Android] NITDroid V2 Development Topic
 

I used a 1GB card when my brand new 4GB SanDisk failed and it has been working fine. Am lovin' NITDroid. Can't wait for the next update, hopefully with GPS and 3G working.

Re: [Android] NITDroid V2 Development Topic
 

Hi all,
didn't really check on the thread already but :
- can we use only a partition of the sd card ?
I got a 32Gb and dont really want to use everything for NITdroid :D

Re: [Android] NITDroid V2 Development Topic
 

When yes how I can do this ? to merge the sd card to a part android / Ubuntu and other part for "just files " ?! ;)

Re: [Android] NITDroid V2 Development Topic
 

maybe resize the actual partition used for maemo and create a brand new one for nitdroid install !
using something like gparted

EDIT : ok sorry 10 000 000 times didn't even read the how to before asking ... now everything is ok
cheers ^^ :o

Re: [Android] NITDroid V2 Development Topic
 

I keep getting write error read only file system while trying to extract nitdroid.
what do i need to do?

Re: [Android] NITDroid V2 Development Topic
 

let me guess somedude: your using a 4gb sandisk card

Re: [Android] NITDroid V2 Development Topic
 

Yes I am and its class 2

edit: I followed nitdroid wiki 3 times now and everytime it didnot work i reflashed my n900 and then I followed your steps in the latter post twice and then reflashed it again.

edit: tried again now it says no space left on device

Re: [Android] NITDroid V2 Development Topic
 

yep check your rootfs usage for start. Second you would be the 4th or 5th person now to have same issue with a 4gb sandisk card... Suspect theirs a issue their as its far to many to be pure coincidence imo.

Re: [Android] NITDroid V2 Development Topic
 

rootfs says 77mb free

Re: [Android] NITDroid V2 Development Topic
 

for the moment working great on the 32Go sandisk SD :D

Re: [Android] NITDroid V2 Development Topic
 

i have a question...

Will the warranty of my N900 lost if i install Nitdroid?

Re: [Android] NITDroid V2 Development Topic
 

definitely not
on the worst case you fflash using diablo and then emmc but not any problem in any case regarding the warranty
IMO ...

Re: [Android] NITDroid V2 Development Topic
 

So, http://www.pocketables.net/2008/07/android-install.html

this android install works yet to n810?

They install the last version of android? (1.6)

Why not work more on the version to n810?

GPS works on n810 version?

The Droid App Store works?

Re: [Android] NITDroid V2 Development Topic
 

Oops and I just bought one yesterday LOL

I will try it tomorrow and see if I have any issues with it

Re: [Android] NITDroid V2 Development Topic
 

No one can aswer me?!

Re: [Android] NITDroid V2 Development Topic
 

@foxdanger: The development for N8x0 is seized, as you can see on this page http://wiki.nitdroid.com/index.php?title=N8x0

Re: [Android] NITDroid V2 Development Topic
 

N810 isn't top priority, but I saw hints that improvements for N810 Android might appear soon.
