NITDroid uninstallation
 
I have a big problem, and I know that many people on the official Nitdroid thread are having the issue too.

I installed Gingerbread, only to find it was lacking in video playback, so I installed nitdroid 0.0.9. As soon as I did, I had the following error

android.process.acore has stopped unexpectedly.
Force close.

The refrains me from using the web browser, messaging application, and dialer.

Could someone out there tell me what to do in this case? I've already tried to uninstalled and reinstalled nitdroid 2 times.

Thanks in advance :)

Also, how does one actually remove nitdroid and its associated files entirely? I've done apt-get install nitdroid-uninstaller, but is that it?

Do not know how to, but did you try the Forum Search, there are some threads where this was discussed before. Will may be faster than waiting on an answer.

The wiki claims to uninstall and remove the nitdroid folders and files using filebox. This messed my system up beyond repair, however Im clearly to blame as others have followed the wiki countless times without trouble.

www.nitdroid.com is the wiki, iirc.

Simple: Click the Uninstall NITDroid icon in your applications.
This is remove multiboot and the kernels. Just format your SD card.

What if mount /dev/mmcblk1p2 doesn't exist? I get a no such file or directory error.

First check which is mounted for not just open x-terminal type mount| grep mmc and show us the result, then i will tell next what to do.

shardul 2011-01-19 11:58

Re: NITDroid uninstallation
 
You don't have to do flash, Just type this cmd on x-terminal, which i have written in my earlier post

If it is on the internal n900 memory then use mount /home /and

that is if you installed it to /home when installing. This is the default location because that is what the instruction guide thread on here said. Be careful to not delete any maemo files though. I'm sure someone more knowledgeable can write the exact command in order to do that........?

Or would uninstall nitdroid command work when you are in this directory. Is that safe? It wont delete the nitdroid kernel will it, if for example you just want to go back to using nitdroid on an external card?

Thanks for adding that, and the list of folders which can be deleted. The code you have put has confused me though.......
"root
mount /dev/mmcblk0p2 /and -o noatime
nitdroid-uninstaller "

Isn't that the command to remove it from the sd card? I could be wrong as I'm no expert, but perhaps someone could clear that up, as it is exactly what people in this thread have had problems with. They are being told to remove nitdroid from their emmc, but the commands they are being given is to delete off sd card.

kyllerbuzcut 2011-02-05 15:04

Re: NITDroid uninstallation
 
just investimagated and mmcblk0p2 should indeed link to /home partition, so if you installed nitdroid on /home then that is correct. Some people have it on mmcblk1p2 (this must be the sd card) mmcblk0p5 (if you installed it on a separate partition) and I've seen others as well.
If the command doesn't work for you then you just need to dind out here it is installed to on your system.

Basically, It is in mmcblk0p2 try to mount
