As for the instructions, I would like to thank to mido.fayad and tele for contributing:

Changelog:
http://nitdroid.com/index.php?title=Changelog

Let's start:
If you installed Nitdroid 0.0.8 in /home, remove all Nitdroid files from /home partition, by filebox for simplicity, but don't remove maemo files!

Files to be downloaded:
Nitdroid 0.0.9:
http://downloads.nitdroid.com/e-yes/...-0.0.9.tar.bz2
Copy it to:

Code:

/home/user/MyDocs

Nitdroid's kernel:
http://downloads.nitdroid.com/nitins...nal1_armel.deb
Copy it to:

Code:

/home/user/MyDocs

Installing NITDroid 0.0.9 to the EMMC:
1.Enable all repositories from App manager (Extras-testing, Extras-devel, Extras and the default Nokia)
2.Install Leafpad from the App manager and make sure that you have root access
3.Close App manager, open X Terminal and execute the following commands:

Code:

root
apt-get update
apt-get install nitdroid-installer
y
y again if it asks again

4.After the nitdroid-installer package is installed, close X Terminal
5.On your new X Terminal window, type the following commands:

Code:

root
cd /home/user/MyDocs
bzip2 -d NITDroid-0.0.9.tar.bz2
cd /home
mkdir /and
cd /
mount /home /and
cd /and
tar xvf /home/user/MyDocs/NITDroid-0.0.9.tar
dpkg -i /home/user/MyDocs/nitdroid-kernel-2.6.28-06_final1_armel.deb

9. On Xterm:

Code:

leafpad /etc/multiboot.d/1 (then press tab on your screen

Your .item file shall open take a look at ITEM_DEVICE:, if you're using an mmc ITEM_DEVICE:${INT_CARD}p2 OR if you don't have an mmc ITEM_DEVICE:mmcblk0p2

Fixes:
Great fixes are included in 0.0.9, including airplane mode, wifi fix, and google sign in. In addition, some users reported that the app market already needs no fixes, but not with me, so let's keep this fix here. More fixes are included in the wiki if you needed them.

Alpha-numeric Keyboard FIX:
Very annoying problem is gone...
http://downloads.nitdroid.com/e-yes/...keypad.kcm.bin
1.Download this file to ./MyDocs
2.On Xterm:

Code:

mount /home /and
cd /home/user/MyDocs
cp "filename" /and/system/usr/keychars/

APP Market Fix:
1.Open the Market app (from the Home screen or app launcher)
2.Leaving the Market app running, return to the Home screen and open the Settings app again
2.Within Settings select Applications → Manage applications → Running (from Tab at top)
4.Scroll to select the Market app → press the Clear Cache button → then press the Force Stop button (Do not press the Clear Data button)
5.Press the back button (to go back to the list of running apps)
6.Scroll to select Google Services Framework → press the Clear Data button → OK (to confirm) → then press the Force Stop button
7.Return to the Home screen
8.Launch the Market app again, which will give an error "Attention an error has occurred..." → OK button
9.Shutdown by holding power button → Power Off → OK
10.Restart, wait for wi-fi to reconnect, open Market again (You may have to reboot several times and check Market)
The opening Market screen should no longer be blank, and many more apps (free & paid) should now be available. (Although apps can be downloaded, a few may still fail to install or run properly).

Kernel update for Nitdroid:
1. Download the kernel from http://downloads.nitdroid.com/e-yes/zImage.
2. Connect your phone using usb to your computer and copy the kernel over to the phone (paste it in MyDocs) open up filebox and navigate to where you copied the kernel and copy the zImage.
3. Now navigate to /boot/multiboot. There should be a file here called vmlinuz-2.6.28.NIT.06. Rename it to vmlinuz-2.6.28.NIT.06.old.
4. Paste the xImage and rename it to vmlinuz-2.6.28.NIT.06.
Now you have the latest kernel installed!

I Need Speed!:
The easy way:
Basically OC'ing is done by editing the OC profiles in ./etc, there you'll find 4 OC profiles. Delete the ones you don't want, and keep the needed ones.To modify your "needed" ones:

Code:

mount /home /and

Code:

leafpad /and/system/etc/"yoursomething"

The nooby side:
1. Install attached setcpu, OC, party

Kernel Power installation:
For people who want to install Kernel-Power:
1. apt-get it:

Code:

root
apt-get install kernel-power kernel-power-flasher
apt-get install kernel-power-bootimg kernel-power-modules

2. Using filebox, navigate to

Code:

/boot/

3. There you should find zImage-2.6.28.10maemoxx where xx stands for kernel-power version.
4. Rename it to vmlinuz-2.6.28.10powerxx, then copy it to

Code:

/boot/multiboot/

5.Open Xterm and execute:

Code:

cd /etc/multiboot.d/examples
leafpad Maemo-power39.item

6. Change the values to

Code:

ITEM_NAME="Maemo kernel powerxx"
ITEM_KERNEL=2.6.28.10powerxx

7. On the N900's keyboard, ctrl s to save the file.
8. Returning to Xterm:

Code:

cp /etc/multiboot.d/examples/Maemo-powerxx.item /etc/multiboot.d

For people who had kernel-power preinstalled:
Open up xterminal and type

Code:

root
apt-get install --reinstall kernel-power kernel-power-flasher
apt-get install --reinstall kernel-power-bootimg kernel-power-modules
apt-get install --reinstall multiboot-kernel-power

after this reboot your phone and you should be able to overclock maemo!

FAQ:
