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.

Thanks...

Re: Another Android port: NITdroid

It's very likely just something stupid I did, but I couldn't get the new release to run out of the box. The rootfs was missing a lot of seemingly important stuff, like /init, /sbin/adbd, and some...

Re: Palin/Biden debate

Hey Texrat,

Nokia makes lots of money overseas... does that mean your stock is likely to go up if the dollar is worth less?

Sorry to everyone else (in the US), just looking for silver linings...

What exactly is the will of the people? Last I checked, it was whatever the last 30-second ad they saw told them to think. How is this good?

I know it's not fair, but if you can't devote an hour...

Re: Mark Shuttleworth invests in open source UI

Just my 2 cents (from someone who would primarily like to use it as a finger device):

For touch screens, it seems like lists should be scrollable in the iPhone-ish way. Click anywhere and drag to...

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.

Re: Which device type is the real competitor?

I'm kind of torn. I have a windows mobile phone that someone gave me for free for 3g access that I'd really like to dump (or perhaps perform Voodoo on to kill MS). Pairing is practically a must for...

Re: Sprint's XOHM WiMax service launching next month

Re: Bluetooth-PAN in Diablo

@Rohan:

Did you set the phone as your default device in the control panel? I'm pretty sure that's what maemo-pan tries to connect to. That's the only thing I can think of off the top of my head.

Re: Patched maemo mapper 2.4.1 with google traffic

Re: Patched maemo mapper 2.4.1 with google traffic

Any idea what setting I might've missed that's causing it to constantly refresh the tiles? These are the two things I noticed:
