    Hi dj_steve,
    I've just send money for a few -or more, depending where you go- cocktails your way.

    Thanks for the hard work you're putting in, having choice is great !

    Geert

    reason nothing has been updated for n900 is because i have not released any files yet, none of the items i have working at the moment is hwat i believe is user usable yet, yes the os boots and runs etc but nothing useful works (bluetooth/wifi/gsm/sound etc) so basicly all you can do ias brose the os and not use anything - hence mostly useless

    Hey guys,
    I'm a bit of a newb here. I could partition my memory card to those 4 formats described in the instructions, but after that i don't know how to mount/unmount one partition as the root. Can someone plz write a more detailed instruction as how to do that? one last question, am i going to lose my Maemo 5 OS on my phone or i'll be able to run both OSs by rebooting?

    Awesome work so far, if I had the knowledge I'd help, If I had the money I'd donate, but I spent all my money on this phone!

    I have a few questions though, how much time are you putting in to this project and do you think you'll ever give up before you have a fully working version (or version that has everything you were able to port)

    i cant believe you are the only person working on this, surely there must be someone else out there with the knowledge who wants to help

    I don't want to run Google's piece of sh*t kernel.

    I want to see android apps, and whatever stupid-*** vm they use, running ON MAEMO. One click install.

    This should be worth about 10 million euro to Nokia ...

    arnimS. as i believe you will find has beensaid previous in this thread or one of the others on android the dalvik VM/android apps are so heavily reliant on the kernel modules they use that it would be hard if not near impossible to back engineer them to actually work

    ok quick update here since ive had some progress this morning

    bluetooth now works (well it can scan for devices etc so seems to work - my speaker system has died so cant test much)

    battery reporting works via adb but android still wont see it - working on that as i type

    But some people, (including me) likes to browse the OS So, in what phase do you plan to release it?(like "when sound works", or "when gsm works"...).

    And is there a danger to damage the battery with Android, as there's a closed source battery management driver in maemo if I remember correctly?

    this seems to be a common misconception about maemo5 + battery monitoring.

    the BME in mamemo only controlls charging from what i can tell, its basicly a software control for what the n900s internal hardware battery charger can do (ref: http://wiki.maemo.org/N900_Software_BME - read the part about stopping BME) the charging system will work fine without any intervention from the userspace hardware, because that battery charger chip allows basic safe charging, (and also allows charging from totally dead battery without the os needing to boot)

    and release will be when i have some form of network connectivity be it gsm or wifi
