Hey did you install multiboot.deb(multiboot menu) before installing the ntdroid

Re: Problems Installing NITDroid N12 UMay, KERNEL PANIC! Help please.
 

No,You have to press tab after: leafpad /etc/multiboot.d

After you press tab it will show 11 or 1

Re: Problems Installing NITDroid N12 UMay, KERNEL PANIC! Help please.
 

I think he has not installed multiboot menu becauze even if he ran throug a problem installing ntdroid,he should have been able to boot into maemo!!!!!!!!!

Re: Problems Installing NITDroid N12 UMay, KERNEL PANIC! Help please.
 

leafpad /etc/multiboot.d/11 + TAB and autocompletes all the name.

I dont have idea why isnt working... by the way, android gingerbread guide it's working.

Is there any good and working tutorial to install it?

Re: Problems Installing NITDroid N12 UMay, KERNEL PANIC! Help please.
 

Hi,
well mine is working for N12.
Here is my 11-NITDroid-mmcblk0p2-2.6.28.NIT.06.item file:
ITEM_NAME="text"
ITEM_KERNEL-2.6.28.NIT.06
ITEM_MODULES=ext3
ITEM_DEVICE=${INT_CARD}p2
ITEM_FSTYPE=ext3
ITEM_FSOPTIONS=rw,noatime,errors=remount-ro

As rishabsp says also,
have you installed multiboot? I have version 0.2.10-1

Re: Problems Installing NITDroid N12 UMay, KERNEL PANIC! Help please.
 

when you install NITDROID-INSTALLER, installs automatically the multiboot and bzip2...etc

the kernel of android isnt that!
i followed this guide...

Re: Problems Installing NITDroid N12 UMay, KERNEL PANIC! Help please.
 

Yep, it's what I use normally - from here:
nitdroid-kernel-2.6.28-06_final1_armel.deb

I also use the rc3 version but I find I get random reboots with that so I stick to the generic one.

Re: Problems Installing NITDroid N12 UMay, KERNEL PANIC! Help please.
 

i'll try it again with this kernel...

i'm scared of hit any key to panic!!

and brick my phone again...

Re: Problems Installing NITDroid N12 UMay, KERNEL PANIC! Help please.
 

If ever you can't boot into your phone you can always reflash the kernel only and it will boot for you :-)

Re: Problems Installing NITDroid N12 UMay, KERNEL PANIC! Help please.
 

Only reflash the kernel? how? thanks by the way

EDIT: ITS WORKING!! IS THE ****ING KERNEL!!! Thanks my partner!!!!!!!!!!!! yessssssss

This older kernel works perfect!

BUT, be very careful what you do here as you can easily wipe your rootfs and emmc- ie your phone and all personal data.
Read read and reread what you're about to do before you do it.

Re: Problems Installing NITDroid N12 UMay, KERNEL PANIC! Help please.
 

I apologize now if this is thread stealing, but it's still the same general topic.

I have the same (relatively) issue. I get a kernel panic whenever I boot NITDroid.

I tried .08 (or whatever version that was) and N11 and N12 (at least I think I did).

They all gave me the same thing. It flashed by too quick to see it, but it said something about power_supply module crashing.

Now I've had a weird hardware issue with my phone ever since my other one practically melted from a bad Car charger.

When I charge it up, whether completely charged or still charging, and unplug it, the battery life indicator drops to nothing. At first I had to reboot it or the phone would die after a minute or two. Now it seems after a few minutes (more than 2) the battery will say it's charged, but usually only at 3/4ths of the way or so after a 'full' charge.

Now part of this may be because my original battery was fried along with the phone and only pretends to work properly, or because I have a Chinese Knock off and a third battery; http://www.amazon.com/1350mAh-PG-Pre.../dp/B0037LI9TI

I also bought this stand alone charger; http://www.amazon.com/XpressMusic-N9...sr=1-2-catcorr

This is the only thing I can think of that is causing NITDroid to crash. This isn't so much a "Help help, I can't get NITDroid to work!" but more of a "Wow, this is a weird one! Maybe fixing this bug could improve other things?"

I wish I could get the kernel panic message. I am currently running PR1.3 (the replacement came with PR1.2, but as I said, I had this issue since I got it, and I tried to get Nokia Care to fix it, but they said they couldn't see a problem with it... which makes me think maybe it's (all three?) of my batteries!

Let me know what you guys think... probably should put this in a new thread... let me know what you think about that too.

Edit, yes, I have flashed my Kernel, though it has been a while, tried it when I first had these issues. If all it took was to buy a new battery (or more) and a different charger, then I'd do it in a heartbeat. The phone is now out of warranty, and I've just been waiting for that damned new device!

Re: Problems Installing NITDroid N12 UMay, KERNEL PANIC! Help please.
 

Yep, I would make a new thread for it.

Re: Problems Installing NITDroid N12 UMay, KERNEL PANIC! Help please.
 

Just setup just like flashing for real, just add to the command string. It should look like this:

sudo flasher-3.5 -F RX-51_2009SE_20.2010.36-2_PR_COMBINED_MR0_ARM.bin --flash-only=kernel -f -R

It will just flash in the kernel and reboot using it, not touching anything else.

Just to confirm that I also found nitdroid-kernel-2.6.28-07_rc3_armel.deb and nitdroid-kernel-2.6.28-07_rc4_armel.deb quite unstable giving kernel panics and reboots, after that having to reflash stock kernel with
# flasher-3.5 -F RX-51_2009SE_20.2010.36-2_PR_COMBINED_MR0_ARM.bin --flash-only=kernel -f -R

Now, with nitdroid-kernel-2.6.28-06_final1_armel.deb it works OK.

Thanks,
Rafa.
