Re: Another Android port: NITdroid
Got it. For some reason, the kernel I flashed to yesterday was the same as the one I had before. Downloaded it again, made sure the file was different, flashed it and am trying it now.

Re: Bluetooth-PAN in Diablo
I saw that ad-hoc connections drain battery in the original-original thread when going for a workaround, so it specifically ifdown's the wifi connection... not sure if that really does the trick.
