running version 45 of power kernel.

If your camera won't work after upgrading your kernel, just install the updated fcam drivers and it should work fine. Look for the updated fcam drivers that titan posted.

Update: I can also confirm that gps still works after upgrading to version 45.

No. You must be joking. Even if you didn't buy it in another country.

You could try breaking the USB connection and see if they will replace it.

Now I'm joking.

Help! Ok I've been going through the forums and trying to read most people's problems but there is a little too much info.
My camera stopped functioning so I took out the battery to restart and that began a nightmare with Uboot. I keep getting a penguin on what seems like a endless cycle. My phone will not respond to any commands that are listed.
I have it connected to a wall charger but it's not blinking as if it were charging, and it just keeps cycling on and reverts back to the penguin.

What should I do?

Well I guess i'll try one last time tomorrow otherwise Nokia will be my last resort.

How can I reflash it if it's not openning at all (battery is not charging)?

Trying Power-kernel v45 on a freshly flashed, PR-1.3, N900... board type 2204.

The light for charging does not appear to work. The keyboard light appears also broken... even in darkness it fails to come up.

With the included 'uboot' loader, how can I boot into the normal Maemo 5 kernel? I thought it could be done with 'run noloboot', but apparently not...

You'll get your lights back to life by doing this:
install latest fcam drivers from devel
shutdown
take out battery
insert battery
start the device

Re: Update for Enhanced kernel for power users just released
 
Would you please check if with kernel-power ver 45 you get the normal usb mass storage? My phone doesn't react when connecting via usb to my desktop. HW version is 2101.
Now trying to reinstall stock kernel and re-checking.

UPDATE: stock kernel, pr1.3, works correctly with usb mass storage. Now trying with hostmode kernel.

UPDATE2: hostmode kernel, based on Titan's power kernel ver 40, has usb mass storage, usb host, OC. No u-boot, no 1.3 patches. Guess I'll stay with that for now.

Re: Update for Enhanced kernel for power users just released
 
This question isn't specific to the recent update to Enhanced Kernel..

I have loaded up a customised kernel which idols at 125mhz and depending on the program and the hardware required (GPS, Wifi, etc) goes up to 850mhz as its max.

PHP Code:
if [ "$QBW_EXEC_REASON" == "QBW_STARTUP_UPDATE" ]; then
# add here switch on instructions
/usr/sbin/kernel-load /home/user/MyDocs/kernel.txt | sudo gainroot
echo "ON";
exit 1;
fi;

if [ "$QBW_CURRENT_RESULTS_TEXT" == "ON" ]; then
# add here switch off instructions
/usr/sbin/kernel-unload /home/user/MyDocs/kernel.txt | sudo gainroot
echo "OFF";
exit 0;
else
# add here switch on instructions
/usr/sbin/kernel-load /home/user/MyDocs/kernel.txt | sudo gainroot
echo "ON";
exit 1;
fi;

I have used the queen beecon widget to create an on/off state for that kernel. Loading the kernel is fine:
/usr/sbin/kernel-load /home/user/MyDocs/kernel.txt | sudo gainroot

but unloading the kernel doesn't work. I tried the command:
/usr/sbin/kernel-unload /home/user/MyDocs/kernel.txt | sudo gainroot

the 2 thoughts that occur is that the command kernel-unload is incorrect? or that there needs to be a customised kernel and a stock kernel in MyDocs.. ie: I load the customised kernel to switch it on and I load the stock kernel to switch it off?

Can any one help me with correcting the command line to switch the customised kernel off

You voided the warranty when you installed a non-stock kernel from extras-devel. They will probably not help you unless at least you first reinstall the factory-stock kernel. But if you do that you won't need Nokia's help anyway.

Bottom line: If you don't know exactly what you're doing and why you're doing it - don't be doing it!

if you have upgrade to kernel titan power45, after starting kernel (uboot) try to open the keyboard then the bootmenu should appears.

if you accidently install uboot while you're on PR1.2 just reflash with option kernel only command:
(first shutdown n900)
flasher3.5 -F <firmware image> --flash-only=kernel -f -R

(on pc will display "waiting for device")

(then power on) your n900 while the flasher command still runs



hope it help

I can confirm that USB Mass Storage mode works fine with Power Kernel v45... device must be powered on; if off, it goes into "charging" mode. My device's HW version is 2204.

i tried reboot and hw power off but both aren't working.

Re: Update for Enhanced kernel for power users just released
 
Had this problem last night. I left in on the charger for an hour, then unplugged it and removed the battery. Booted normally after that.

Re: Update for Enhanced kernel for power users just released
 
Been using kernel v45 for 3 days now with no problem... LED lights ok, booting ok, charging ok, USB mass storage mode ok, camera ok, GPS ok.
So far so good very stable to me...
BTW HW revision is 2204.

And oh... No nitdroid or meego here... Just plain maemo and kernelv45. Just wanted the uboot screen it adds geekiness to my device whenever I boot up :D no need typing noloboot or anything. Just let the timeout pass then woot boots to maemo. :)

I thought it was overclocking that voided the warranty. Just installing a non-stock kernel voids it?

Re: Update for Enhanced kernel for power users just released
 
I have recently installed kernel power 45.

BatteryGraph is showing a steep drop in battery charge level at the end of charging compaired to the stock pr1.3 kernel.

Is there any difference in battery monitoring in kernel power?

Re: Update for Enhanced kernel for power users just released
 
i just found a bug in the power-kernel version 45. If you don't charge your phone and live it to die:)), and then charge it again, won't have any sound after start up....I used the power kernel 45 for more than a week and it worked just fine, but last night the battery was fully discharged and after i started the phone the sound wasn't working anymore.

So i had to downgrade to version 42 and it did work again.......Did anyone have noticed this? or is just only me.....

Hello fellow MeeGoons.

I've successfully installed Titan's power45 kernel with u-boot, and I have latest MeeGo from trunk on my SD card, installed as described in http://meego.com/devices/handset/ins...ego-nokia-n900.

Just one question: I don't get it how to boot it from u-boot? Where should I place MeeGo's kernel? :)

EDITIED: okay, found it here and in many other places: http://blog.gbraad.nl/2010/11/how-to...ego-11-on.html

With u-boot, it's as simple as create small fat32 3rd partition on MicroSD and copy created with mkimage uImage there. Worked like a charm.

My battery is DEAD! All day it has been draining like never before after updating the kernel. Removed and will wait for further info if that stopped the drain

I've had a similar problem. I lose sound and vibration whenever I reboot too fast, i.e. use rhe reboot button (if enabled) or switch off and turn on straight away.

Try restarting a few times, but let it rest half a minute before you turn it on. It could also help to remove the battery betweem restarts.

Good luck!

for people with problem caused by uboot in power kernel v45
try updating to v46 recently released with uboot disabled, hope it will fix unwanted issues caused by uboot (which i dont have a problem so far)

hmm two things.. 1. i dont get the pinguin anymore and that stuff but boots normal (just want to confirm that everything is okay ?!? )
2. my radio app doesnt work anymore.. worked before (i dont mean the transmitter, i mean the actual radio app). There are 2 versions in the cataloge, one of them doesnt even start, the other one starts but no sound output !?

Jigzy 2010-11-18 22:54

Re: Update for Enhanced kernel for power users just released
 
anyone update enhanced kernel V46 yet? being a noob don't want to dive in head first and when it all goes wrong have sleepless nights trying to figure out how to fix it.

ktchiu 2010-11-18 23:03

Re: Update for Enhanced kernel for power users just released
 
I just updated it earlier today. It installed fine, and booted up like normal (no uboot screen, just the Nokia logo). I used to have problems with the device not playing any audio and not vibrating after rebooting with v45 but have yet to experience this.
