Just a fast development question, GPS ? I don't think I read anything about it so far in here.

Will it be working at some point? or maybe it's already funtional?

gps module is for some weird reason known only to nokia linked to the phone modem so thats gonna be a bit down the line.

edit: just paired my Bluetooth gps fine though so once emmc/mmc mount works we may be able to get some sat nav goodness

Yeah figured that when I saw the spread sheet how the interior electronics where designed.

But I'm sure your Dev's will get there sooner or later!

Are you sure you downloaded it into MyDocs? Do "find / -name NITDroid-N900*" to see where it is.

Honestly I think that the most important thing is to implement the graphics accelerator, maybe the other things can wait for now

I do not know if you agree

However, Dj and others are fantastic programmer, they should work for nokia

hi there. I've been following this topic for months now, and all I can say is you guys are amazing! thanks a million for bringing Android to the n900!

I have some comments on the latest build though:

- everything works fine at the OS level but when it comes to the applications they tend to force close. (haven't been able to launch Youtube and google maps for example)

- on the market the furthest I could get is the "Starting download" screen, I was not able to install anything yet (my partition is 1.9 GB). Is this working for others? If yes, I will try to reflash, that never hurts

- there are at least two applications pre-installed on this build that use the camera, but AFAIK the support for it has not been looked at yet (correct me if I'm wrong). Are you planning to include this in the to do list? Again, please shoot me if I'm the only one without working camera.

Sorry for the long post, just wanted to add my feedback on the new (otherwise awesome) build. Thumbs up, keep up the good work guys!
