Maemo/Meego --> Maemo/Android
 
Hi Guys,
I have successfully installed Meego on my N900 onto the SD card and i have installed UBoot to get it to dual boot.

All i have to say is Meego sucks and I would like to remove Meego and install Android instead on my SD card. Any help will be much appreciated. Thanks.

Code:

apt-get remove uboot-pr13
apt-get install --reinstall kernel kernel-flasher

... in Maemo.
Reboot to check that the uboot loader is gone.
Now follow the Nitdroid install instructions (internal eMMC install is recommended over external SD), and prepare to be equally disgusted at in-progress software not being totally flawless for your everyday use.

What can you do with Meego exactly? What apps do you have? Are their any games?

Its slow, its drab, its just plain boring!!!

Nokia should have just went Android in the first place, now its all down hill for them.

Thanks vitaminj.

Is it possible to install Android on the SD card, i have a Class 10 16gb Transcend.

I doubt Android is going to be as bad as Meego. I'm aware though of no phone calls and Camera capabilities. I want it more for the apps.

Tag = 2thick4meego?? Meego is not a good OS (yet).
Why so nasty with the tags?
I do not like Meego, I think it feels primitive.
Hopefully it gets better. Maybe the N9's build is far better than the DE/CE builds we use.

yes, it is possible but it works faster if you install it on emmc. But using constantly android is difficult, phone is hot, problematic charging but you're right - applications work :)

Yeah ask the nasty dude who made the tag.

If only we could get the build that's on the N9, then that would be awesome. The N9 build seems to have alot of potential.
I just hope we get more meego phones which will result in more apps for us.

@vitaminj

You went cool so far, until the part that went "and prepare to be equally disgusted at in-progress software not being totally flawless for your everyday use."
What was the last version of NITDroid you installed? Did you even look at N12? Now I understand that some people hate android, but N12 Umay is far more stable than any MeeGo build, I actually have it as for everyday use! In addition, NITDroid (Android) has indescribable tons of apps, and this is a well-known fact.

You need to install uboot and put its bootimg to multiboot (/boot and /etc/multiboot.d). Later (IMO best using computer) format MMC and put MeeGo image on it. When you finish put MMC in N900, power it on and multiboot should show up, choose uboot. In uboot do nothing, just wait, if everything is ok, meego will start.

Instruction for creating meego mmc card is on meego's offical site.

Off-topic - I'm absolutely sure, that mobile devices market is heading into so dumb direction, only because of such suckers. Possibly I'm doing wron even commenting this - it should be merciful ignored - but it's just "touching" how immature some users are.

Enjoy Your "apps" (they're called programs, You know? I think Apes should fill protest...), buy new w|np$one, put it into | and smoke it. Then go away with God.

Woah slow down bro :) Arent you the one who got all mad in another thread apt-get remove hildon-desktop ? :).


Not everyone likes to tinker with their phones or learn programming . There are ppl who just want apps ( yes apps short from applications you know?) and games. From what I read you're not one of them so just let it go and enjoy your life :)

as for the op he is a troll and as much as I like TMO trolls have flooded the forums :mad: have have you done Steve???? :D
