1. For all people bugged on with the HW Keyboard, install this attached .apk in Nitdroid. Then go to settings ---> text input, then disable android keyboard and enable HTC IME.
2. For people who don't have an sdcard be sure that ITEM_DEVICE:mmcblk0p2
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.

a few questions..

1) maybe i'm just ******ed but the steps on the instructions are 1.2.3.4.5.and then 9

there's no step 6, 7, or 8? what the hell?

2) i've completed everything, steps 1-9 minues the missing ones obviously, and everything is fine except step 9. everytime i do that leafpad opens up and seems to open up a file called (1) at the top, but there's nothing in there. it's just a white page of emptyness.

3) this is technically a continuation of the previous question: when do i hit 'tab' in xterm? do i type the leafpad /etc/multiboot.d/1 command and then hit enter, and then go back to xterm after the n900 opens up leafpad and hit tab? what's the point of that. i'm confused.

(sorry if i'm just daft. i'm confused hands down.)

4) i tried rebooting (having not completed step 9) and multiboot loaded properly and everything, except that if i hit '0' it boots Maemo like it should, but if i click '1' it still boots maemo. what is going on?

thanks in advance. it would be great to get this working. i'm pretty sure this is some trivial issue, but i'm stuck.

Sir how do you revert back to 0.0.9
do i need to reinstall nitdroid installer or just copy the 0.0.9 img and kernel into the respective area and change the multi boot config file accordingly ?
appreciate very much if you can post a detail step by step on how to revert back to 0.0.9

thanks in advance

[Tab] is the soft key on the Xterm screen and this will auto-complete the command.

Do exactly as the instructions say:
leafpad /etc/multiboot.d/1 (then press tab on your screen)

This command should then complete with the name of your file to edit, so then press <enter> for leafpad to open the file for editing.

To see the multiboot item files you have available type:
ls /etc/multiboot.d/

You could provide the file name direct to leafpad with:
leafpad /etc/multiboot.d/11-NITDroid-mmcbl... (etc. as per the filename)
