OMG OMG my phone just reboot and is actually working now :-) thank God.

Now if someone could tell me how to reset it back to the golabl versaion and remove the NITDroid.
Do I need to follow the flasher method or can I just reset it direct form the phone?

Thanks
chris

Uninstall Bootmenu
Format SD Card
Use flasher to disable RD mode
Use flasher to reinstall PR1.2 (May not be necessary, but i did this anyway)

It used to be on the wiki: "flasher-3.5 --disable-rd-mode".

jw isnt the motorola droid using the same ti arm processor as the n900 is there a way to install kernels n dependecy from that phone and put it on n900? i could be off base here but that seem easier

Is having root access the same thing as being able to get the dependecies needed to make it work on n900? or is that just giving us the abilite to use the android os, but the actually kernel's to use it correctly on the n900. I believe the droid also has the unofficial 2.2 os now. according to this site. Droid unofficial 2.2 update for rooted droids sorry if i am asking stupid questions jsut curious about the whole process of this. And eager to see a fully working Nitdroid900 :P

No, root access is like admin access. The problem with just using Milestone drivers is those drivers are encrypted. Kinda like the equivalent of Nokia's closed source drivers for some of the N900 parts.
