Re: Nitdroid on Nokia n9 and donation thread.
Even if it was possible, the n9 doesn't have enough buttons to be able to navigate the Android OS.

Re: Nitdroid on Nokia n9 and donation thread.
If at all possible..you can get ICS to run on the N9..but the old GPU on the N9(530) can be a problem..

The GPU wouldnt be the problem The buttons would be a slight hiccup, but the proximity sensor can be used, also the screens double tap could be used as the unlock method and the lock button be used for something else :) NITDroid already showed us when can be done with talented developers work at something, so I have every faith that e-yes would be able to get it running even better then he did on the n900! |
Re: Nitdroid on Nokia n9 and donation thread.
There's an app that can be pre-installed in the build.
It gives you permanent On-Screen Navigation buttons... can't quite remember I think it was called Button Saviour, they use it on the Nook/KFire |
I have tweeted to e-yes about this and if he didnt think it was possible he would not be setting up a donation account as we speak:) we have seen what he could do with the n900. Im going to donate 50 euro:)

Re: Nitdroid on Nokia n9 and donation thread.
What's the point on android?
It was done as fun for N900 and to bring over some games. Meego and N9 are fine. NITdroid was a great project for n900. Let n9 be n9... |
Yes n9 is great as is but it wools be cool with nitdroid aswell. Could bring even more games to n9.:-) If you don't want it then don't donate. I hope there are more people then me that want it though: p
|
Re: Nitdroid on Nokia n9 and donation thread.
I saw too on twitter that e-yes "wants" a N9 to begin development of nitdroid. It won't bee difficult to collect the money and donate the device to him. There are lot of people who d like to see the N9 run ics.
|
Im the one that asked him yesterday that's why I'm trying to raise money:) hopefully we can do it:)

If it could'nt be done E-yes would say so. The more cool stuff we get to the n9 the better. I'm really hoping we are able to rasie the money!:) |
Re: Nitdroid on Nokia n9 and donation thread.
I ain't opening a thread for NITDroid on the N9, just sayin' ;)
|
Re: Nitdroid on Nokia n9 and donation thread.
I'm talking about ICS here as no buttons.. :-/ not Android 2.3.5 or earlier iterations cause frankly i would only want to remove Meego from my N9 for ICS.. and I dont think ICS runs good on a 530 ? is there any device out there with a 530 and on which there is an official version of ICS? im asking!
|
Re: Nitdroid on Nokia n9 and donation thread.
Indeed, ICS doesnt use buttons.
Id welcome ICS as an option :) |
Re: Nitdroid on Nokia n9 and donation thread.
then lets donate:) lets make this happen. We all know that E-yes works magic;)

Re: Nitdroid on Nokia n9 and donation thread.
How much will we need to raise?
|
Around 550 euro I'm in with already 50euro maybe more. I really want to make this happen:)
|
Re: Nitdroid on Nokia n9 and donation thread.
would save us a lot of anguish if alien dalvik just came out already
|
I don't think alien dalvik is coming.

Re: Nitdroid on Nokia n9 and donation thread.
question, are the drivers easier or possible to access compared to the n900? that's the main issue in nitdroid...
|
I don't know really. I can ask e-yes if he knows.
|
Re: Nitdroid on Nokia n9 and donation thread.
1GHz OMAP 3630 + PowerVR SGX530 + 1GB RAM is absolutely great to run ICS. Even that old dog with his 3430 and his 256MB RAM can do so.
|
Re: Nitdroid on Nokia n9 and donation thread.
I'm ready to donate for this too. Come on Sniper_swe...Go get the paypal link! :)
Would be nice with an official statement by e-yes regarding this too. Timeframe, priority etc. |
Re: Nitdroid on Nokia n9 and donation thread.
I personally would prefer to see a community alternative to OpenACL or Alien Dalvik (the former's better).
There are approaches towards that, difficult, but not entirely insurmountable, we just need peeps with the skillz/time. But this can't hurt too, so long as it doesn't take away too much from the Maemo dev/proactive-usr community. |
Re: Nitdroid on Nokia n9 and donation thread.
...and maybe it's even "better" to donate to the EFF, instead of swapping Harmattan with that castrated OS. ;)

I'm trying to figure out some other way of donating the cash to e-yes. I'm open for ideas.:) Regarding timeframe etc i think its kinda hard for e-yes to answer without having the n9 but i will ask him when we get the donation account situation solved:) |
Re: Nitdroid on Nokia n9 and donation thread.
how about using western union? i want to see GTA III running on my n9 :cool:
|
I'll check the terms out:)
|
Re: Nitdroid on Nokia n9 and donation thread.
the fees are so high at western union. Example 50$ from sweden to russia and about 18 $ fee :(
that is not an option. Anybody now of other service that can be used? |
Re: Nitdroid on Nokia n9 and donation thread.
|
Re: Nitdroid on Nokia n9 and donation thread.
how about using Alertpay then, its supports russian federation and it should be pretty easy to get money out of there.
check it out. :) |
Seems a lot better. Thanks:)
