Re: [Android] NITDroid V2 Help/Tutorial Topic

Ok, I think I can find a spare one of those, do I need to set it as dual boot with a boot menu, or can I run it native (doesnt matter if I brick the phone either :))

2010-07-01 18:38

Re: [Android] NITDroid V2 Help/Tutorial Topic

@*Sonic*: You might want to try the Autoinstaller script, that would take almost all work out of it :)

Re: [Android] NITDroid V2 Help/Tutorial Topic

Realy cool,
have it up and running since about a week now.
Currently on zimage4 froyo 4-3
Have a few issues:
No SD-Card, which is weird, since mount shows me that the eMMC is mounted on /sdcard (/dev/block/mmcblk1p1)
And I can LS it ..
(and so I can't download anything.. really anoying)

I cant su (in dev tools terminal)
su: uid 10025 not allowed to su

The wifi works, but only ones.. as soon as you lose connectivity it displays scanning... forever. Disableing and ena wifi doesn't help.. have to reboot and then it see's all accespoints and it will reconnect to one of my stored ones..

Hi kingoddball,

I would like to know how can I impliment your flasher or kernel settings with the kernel-power application because obviously when I reinstalled all my application included the kernel-power one i lost your kernel and I am not able to load NITDroid anymore.

Cheers

Re: [Android] NITDroid V2 Help/Tutorial Topic

blk0 wont be touched by installer, it always picks mmcblk1, bootmenu should work with {EXT_CARD}p2

Re: [Android] NITDroid V2 Help/Tutorial Topic

Premade cards sounds like a good idea but maybe it could wait a bit until it's working a bit better(so you don't get any dissapointed customers ;)), or at least make sure they know what they are getting...

dj_steve

2010-07-02 11:28

Re: [Android] NITDroid V2 Help/Tutorial Topic

of course make sure people know what their getting

dj_steve

2010-07-02 11:41

Re: [Android] NITDroid V2 Help/Tutorial Topic

yea of course id say what its getting:

ok prices:
im going to quote 2 prices per card, one if for a brand new card and one is for a 2nd hand card thats been fully tested and 1 year warranty - i use the 2nd hand cards from same place and have no trouble at all)

Code:

Size       New       2nd

1gb        n/a         £5

2gb         £8       £7.50

4gb        £12        £10

6gb        n/a         £11

8gb        £19        £13

16gb      £32        £30

32gb      £90        £55

all would be with whatever latest version of nitdroid at time is
postage included in them prices.

I used the auto installer and got the same prob. Just open the Bootmenu file and remove ^M at the end of each line.

I am having the same issue. Could please specify the file we need to edit? I looked at both "bootmenu.conf" and "android.ext.item" under "etc" but couldn't see a "^M" anywhere.

Thanks.

I checked this file android.ext.item which was generated by the sript and it had these signs at the end of each line. After removing them, it worked, might be a coincidence, maybe just rebooting did it. Dont know for sure.

2010-07-03 21:23

Re: [Android] NITDroid V2 Help/Tutorial Topic

The android.ext.item is updated server side so it should not contain those signs any more...

Re: [Android] NITDroid V2 Help/Tutorial Topic

Hmm.. So can anyone help me with the error I'm getting after selecting option 2 'Android' in the bootmenu.

'getbootstate: Invalid selection'.

Any help is much appreciated!

PS: I used the autoinstalller and got no errors during install. I saw the Nitdroid should work screen as well.

Re: [Android] NITDroid V2 Help/Tutorial Topic

Been trying to install using AutoInstaller....

Script works, but I always have problem in Stage 2, downloading the tarball, have DSL, so, have pretty fast connection...download typically starts, but then usually stops at about 2 - 3% complete...retries many times, then fails....one time I got as far as about 32%.....

Any suggestions?

Thanks!

Mark

If I understand you correctly, you are worried that NITDroid will screw up EasyDebian. It shouldn't. NITDroid just messes with the kernel and the MicroSD. It shouldn't touch anything with EasyDebian, since you have to be booted into Maemo to get to EasyDebian anyway.

Hope this answers your question.

I had to type in the contents of the android.ext.item by hand because it was corrupted somehow. Then it worked for me.

Just trying to use autoinstaller again....

Retrying.

Some time later, I now see:

So, now it's on 'try 13'.....

:confused:

Meanwhile, as noted, I'm able to download OK with other laptop on same network, although MacBook is in dock with ethernet cable to my Netgear DSL modem/router...but have used wifi OK with my other laptop too at home...

Any suggestions????
