Wireless is now working for me now that I have the non-debugging kernel enabled.

adb works just fine for me, not sure what that issue is about. Build seems fast to me, if a bit longer to boot. The power updates are great, having it report battery power is pretty nice.

Problem I am having is, cookies still do not work in the browser. Not sure what is up with that. Anyone having the same issue?

I reloaded the system from scratch (new fs on the card, etc) to make sure that I don't have some carry over incompatibility.

Great work on this. I check the thread daily for updates.

jogorman, the cookies don't work for some reason.

The new release seems slower but smoother... Looks like I am still having that DNS problem. Very good though, almost complete.

And time works! Yeah!!!

Just wondering, how come the EEE PC port took such a little time, when this is taking longer. Are x86 systems easier to work with?


Problems: My computer did not boot when N810 was attached via USB.

adb is not working under windows. It looks like Android is identifing itself as a "USB composite device", which is stupid. How do I enable adb back on the N810?

solca:

Can you update the links on your page with the latest patch - kernel and user, as well as the latest kernel.config?

Thanks
Awesome work!!

Ok, got adb working in Linux, you just need to enable USB debugging (sigh)... This was in DevTools before, looks like it got moved...

Trying windows now... Yes it works...

When you finish compiling Android there is a ramdisk.img file which contains everything in the rootdir.

But I'll include everything in the next tarball as before just that will be unused by N8x0 devices as these will continue using the initramfs aproach.

I found the cause, I didn't use the correct compiler. Will fix for the next release.

Cookies don't work since Google update the browser to the november webkit.

The EEE hardware have open source Linux drivers that follow standard Linux APIs that don't require binary blobs to work. The NITs require propietary binary daemons (dsme, bme, kicker) to function, it's open source drivers for basic things like Tahvo and Retu ASICs don't expose standard APIs and just modify directly registers, all the real thing is done in userspace and obfuscated by the propietary daemons.

It's a day and night difference, although it could be much worse, it seems Nokia close the door to other OSes than Maemo.

I update all source patches at the same time as the precompiled downloads or I'm missing something?

The normal kernel have adb disabled by default, you have to enable it in settings as any normal Android device, the debugging kernel have it enabled by default.

Yes, WebKit has its own share of issues... In the WebKit in default browser thread Pronvit mentioned how you can use libcurl to handle cookies, maybe that will help?

After a clean installation, all seem working properly. There must be some directory permission or ownership issues with my previous environment.

But the ro.secure=1 seems to have disabled all the fun of owning the NIT.

Yes, added to my checklist before releasing...

Has the kernel patch not changed then? I have kept each file as you have updated and diffed the old one vs the new one and there are no differences.

@Solca & Bundyo: Really great work guys, I've been playing with android and I have wanted to get it working on my n770.

Solca, your n770 debug kernel image fails with that annoying fading nokia screen and restarts.
Bundyo, both of your images get to the verbose linux output bootup screen and successfully mounts my mmc, but fails with:

Code:
Kernel panic - not syncing; No init found.  Try passing init= option to kernel.
It has successfully mounted my ext3 partition as readonly root.

There were are few command timeouts for mmci-omap for CMD5 and CMD55, and one for CMD8.

I'm using the current android rootfs image from Solca's site. I tried changing permissions in Ubuntu to read and write, but it's still being read as read-only.

Again great work guys, and kudos to you bundyo for getting this far with the n770, all of my attempted compiles have ended like Solca's, with the fading nokia splash.
