You'll need to get stlc45xx-cal and place it on the FAT partition (/sdcard) on your SD card. It should help, even if rebooting fixes it.

I followed this and it seemed to work. When I booted the first time it went to a blank black screen until I pulled out the battery. It booted fine after that.

NEW: I've written a quick script for downloading all of the files. You'll need to go in and change:
to whatever your username is on your system.Code:cd /home/yourusernamegoeshere/Desktop/
And I'm probably being pedantic here but "dmesg | tail" is nicer to look at than "dmesg" (in this case)

Thanks for the hint. It didn't make any difference, however this morning another new wifi device refused to connect (Dell mini 9) and when I checked the wifi was on channel 13.
Since these extra channels don't exist everywhere I'm guessing by default the wifi chipset ignores them. When I changed to channel 1 both devices work fine.

Has anyone been able to flash NITdriod on the WiMAX tablet? Mine's hardware revision is 1007, and flasher said it flashed the image correctly. When I start the tablet, it shows the Nokia logo, with the picture of a spanner inside the tablet, and does not proceed further. I partitioned my 2G internal card to have 500M vfat, unpartitioned, 500M ext3 all formatted and the android rootfs files copied over.

The only issue I had with installing was the 2nd stage loader (when the NITdroid logo pulses) didn't work at first. I'm not sure if this is where the pause (due to first load caching) is supposed to be or not but the first 2 times it sat there for 5+ minutes before I gave up. I tried again later and now it works fine, could be the sd card didn't make a good enough connection I suppose.
Anyway apart from that it seems to work fine. Apart from it's complete refusal to connect to my wi-fi. I've tried add the connection manually but it still says no. Maybe this doesn't work but the project page implies that it does. Any ideas?
