[Android] Another Android port: NITdroid
 

NITdroid is a port of the Android operating system to NIT devices, currently it is a work in progress.

NITdroid is the product of collaboration here in itT forums and at #nitdroid IRC channel.

Short story: I didn't know about the other port when I start experimenting and bugging ppl at IRC, here it is the result, there's a lot to do yet, please if you feel motivated learn to use ADB and help with the debugging ;)

Latest release is: 0.4.3.

I was just wandering what to fill my N800's new 32GB with... ;)

Re: Another Android port: NITdroid
 

Neat, now the G1 is out, we can expect a lot of apps.

@Solca: You have a typo - You probably meant that the latest kernel is 2.6.28 :)

Re: Another Android port: NITdroid
 

Just to make it clear - i guess Maemo is not working with this kernel? :)

Re: Another Android port: NITdroid
 

It boots directly from memory card rather than going to initfs which boots Maemo.

AndroNIT sounds way better :P

Solca: i have this information:

About keymap:

if android loads all .kl files in /system/usr/keylayout/
there are duplicate entries.

@qwerty12: Can i change the partition to boot from?

Re: Another Android port: NITdroid
 

I have no idea :/

All I know is that the line is hardcoded in the kernel cmdline.

But if it's switched to the initfs, then I have a feeling that a load of 2.6.21 modules will be loaded and the old closed source wifi driver will attempt to load. I don't know if that would mess up things.
