Problem while installing Android on my N900
 

user nesrazz does have a problem after installing (flashing kernel) android.
he was already suggested to reflash/disable R&D mode.
But it seems, that he enters the wrong commands.
Also he doesn't understand english very well, so is here someone speaking turkish?
That would help a lot!
His original posts started here but since his problem is offtopic in that thread and we would like to keep it as clean as possible, I've started a new one for him.

Thanks

ok commands i run in in order to flash back to the standard maemo kernel are as follows (on windows):

make sure your n900 is connected in usb mode first (take off back cover remove battery and connect usb lead then hold the letter u on keyboard and insert battery) once you get the usb screen (nokia with usb logo in top right) hit return and flasher should flash


Translation : hope its something readable:

Ok i standart maemo çekirdeğiyle geçmişe dönmek için koşur kumanda etir as follows ( pencerelerde):

Senin n900 bağlandığından emin yap usb şekili birinci ( al sırt örtüsününötesinde kalk akü ve connect sonra usb kurşunu mektup u klavyede çalıştır ve Ek aküsü) bir kez sen alınca en üst hakkın içindeki usb logo nokia usb perdesi dönüş vuran ve flasher çakmayan

I believe his battery is completely dead.

He should charge it by using an external charger or by some other means.

This happened to me when experimenting with the current Android kernel in rd mode.

or just connect the device to charger and leave it for 32 secs it will start charging quite happily

why nobody makes android into package that will be easy to install?

It is still in development. If you can't do it, it is better if you don't.

There is the Android autoinstaller. You can't make it any easier than that. It installs multiboot, allows for the power kernel to be available etc.. I had a problem with partitioning, so I did that manually. But apart from that, everything went smooth with the auto installer.

It can't be any easier than this.

If you look at the date, the OP post was dated may 2010. And the poster is a top notch linux hacker/programmer! If a top linux hacker said he has problem in installing, I agree, it is probably NOT straight foreward. However, today is October 2010, as pantera1989 pointed out, things have changed. And there is now an autoinstaller, everything you need is here, http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=61338; dont bother to scan 500+ posts, everything you need is on post 1.

post questions if problems, we will take you thru,

ok i see your points, but is it Nitdroid 0.0.8 running perfectly?
and because i'm not good enough in English and rootsh.
therefore, it will be nice if you can make a clip about how to install Nitdroid 0.0.8. Then everyone can do it.
have fun

I think you have a point. I myself would NOT be interested to do it though.
