hey

android can't see ur music and videos because music folder in maemo is .music and so it's hidden so copy them to another folder

and try player pro for music , it works ver good

about contacts , connect ur n900 to pc suite and select all ur contacts and copy them to any folder and then copy this folder to ur mobile and open nitdroid

then open contacts and choose import/export then choose import from sd card and then copy all and u wiill have all conatcts in nitdroid

Reports:
1. I reverted back to 0.0.9, since the accelerometer is properly calibrated, and this is the most stable and usable version, till now.
2. Installed a couple of games:
Asphalt HD: Works like a charm
Angry Birds season: Working great
Need for speed SHIFT: Works like a charm
Hero of sparta: Works like a charm
Family guy uncensored: Working great
Gangstar west coast hustle: Working great, minor glitches in accelerometer can be avoided using touch control.
Opera Mini: Driving me crazy
I'll try my best to upload a video tutorial on how to install Nitdroid, not promising.
what version of gangstar west coast hustle did you use please ammyt?

i installed it but has bad graphical issues (main character had no colour and bulidings was messed up etc)

thanks

1) overclock the nitdroid. do i leave the oc profiles in /etc as it is or do i rename the file and move it to another locations

please help
Re 1):

Overclocking and power management is managed by the file: /and/system/etc/power.conf

In Xterm:

root
mount /dev /and
cd /and/system/etc
Copy in your suitably named modified file(s), rename the current 'power.conf' file (to keep an original copy), then rename you required file 'power.conf'

The Android widget 'Temp+CPU V2' is useful to confirm current CPU speed, usage & temperature.

I got this to work for me following the instructions, but I've just noticed something today. I may have somehow mounted too much stuff to /home somewhere along the line. What's the best way to check which mountings I don't need. I have run the mount command in xterm and I believe the erlevant section I have are:
/dev/mmcblk1p1 on /media/mmc1
/dev/mmcblk0p1 on /home/user/MyDocs
/dev/mmcblk0p2 on /home

I believe the last one there is where the android files got set up.
Is there any other/better ways of checking this?

The reason I am checking this out is because I looked at the DiskUsage app and my /home is full. All the characters are screwed up and just show up as squares now and I cannot update anything ( because it thinks /home is full.

If there is any linux experts who could lend a hand I'd be very grateful. Any other other things to try would also be appreciated.

Thanks for all the great work so far

Read the first post.
Particularly APP Market Fix (should help with Market) and Kernel update for Nitdroid (ability to install apps on SD, which is required by Angry Birds).

How do you do a clean reinstall of NITDroid? I want to go back on 2.2.1 but everytime I reinstall 2.2.1 I got billions of errors on screen something stopped working ...blah.

I assume you have installed NITdroid with nitdroid-installer.

1. First, open Xterm and drop to root.

2. Mount your nitdroid partition on /and.

Code:

mount /dev/mmcblk1p2 /and -o noatime


3. Run the uninstaller scripts.

Code:

nitdroid-uninstaller


4. Unmount

Code:

umount /and


5. If you are not going it install NITDroid again, you can also remove nitdroid-installer:

Code:

apt-get remove nitdroid-installer
