- | == | + | ==Fixes== |
- | === | + | |
- | + | ===APP Market Fix=== | |
+ | |||
+ | # Open the '''Market''' app (from the Home screen or app launcher) | ||
+ | # Leaving the Market app running, return to the Home screen and open the '''Settings''' app again | ||
+ | # Within Settings select '''Applications''' → '''Manage applications''' → '''Running''' (from Tab at top) | ||
+ | # Scroll to select the '''Market''' app → press the '''Clear Cache''' button → then press the '''Force Stop''' button (Do not press the '''Clear Data''' button) | ||
+ | # Press the back button (to go back to the list of running apps) | ||
+ | # Scroll to select '''Google Services Framework''' → press the '''Clear Data''' button → '''OK''' (to confirm) → then press the '''Force Stop''' button | ||
+ | # Return to the Home screen | ||
+ | # Launch the '''Market''' app again, which will give an error "Attention an error has occurred..." → '''OK''' button | ||
+ | # Shutdown by holding power button → '''Power Off''' → '''OK''' | ||
+ | # Restart, wait for wi-fi to reconnect, open '''Market''' again (You may have to reboot several times and check '''Market''') | ||
+ | |||
+ | The opening '''Market''' screen should no longer be blank, and many more apps (free & paid) should now be available. (Although apps can be downloaded, some may still fail to install or run properly) | ||
+ | |||
+ | ===WIFI Fix (rare cases)=== | ||
+ | |||
+ | Change the encryption from WPA2 to WPA from your Wireless Access Point. This is a compatibility issue hopefully going to be fixed in later releases. | ||
+ | |||
+ | ===Airplane Mode Fix=== | ||
+ | |||
+ | For people who enabled airplane mode, fixes are here: | ||
- | |||
- | |||
<ol> | <ol> | ||
+ | <li> | ||
+ | Enable the widget power control and turn airplane mode off | ||
+ | </li> | ||
+ | <li> | ||
+ | If this didn't work disable pin code in maemo | ||
+ | </li> | ||
+ | <li> | ||
+ | '''menu'''→'''devtools'''→'''terminal emulator''' | ||
<pre> | <pre> | ||
- | + | su | |
- | + | rr | |
- | + | ||
</pre> | </pre> | ||
+ | </li> | ||
+ | <li> | ||
+ | The technical solution: | ||
+ | <pre> | ||
+ | cd /and/data | ||
+ | rm -rf * | ||
+ | mkdir logs | ||
+ | chmod 777 logs | ||
+ | cd / | ||
+ | umount /and | ||
+ | </pre> | ||
+ | </li> | ||
</ol> | </ol> | ||
- | + | ||
+ | ===Google account sign-in=== | ||
+ | |||
+ | Skip google sign-up in the first tutorial instead, sign up/in google once in NITDroid. | ||
+ | |||
+ | ==Overclocking Nitdroid== | ||
+ | |||
+ | #You can download ready GUI's from the market for OCing: http://talk.maemo.org/attachment.php?attachmentid=16607&d=1293643705 | ||
+ | #Or use one of these profiles: http://forum.nitdroid.com/index.php?topic=116.0 | ||
+ | |||
+ | ==Kernel Power installation== | ||
+ | |||
+ | For people who want to install Kernel-Power: | ||
+ | |||
+ | 1. apt-get it: | ||
+ | <pre> | ||
+ | root | ||
+ | apt-get install kernel-power kernel-power-flasher | ||
+ | apt-get install kernel-power-bootimg kernel-power-modules | ||
+ | </pre> | ||
+ | |||
+ | 2. Using filebox, navigate to /boot/ | ||
+ | |||
+ | 3. There you should find zImage-2.6.28.10maemoxx where xx stands for kernel-power version. | ||
+ | |||
+ | 4. Rename it to vmlinuz-2.6.28.10powerxx, then copy it to /boot/multiboot/ | ||
+ | |||
+ | 5. Open Xterm and execute: | ||
+ | <pre> | ||
+ | cd /etc/multiboot.d/examples | ||
+ | leafpad Maemo-power39.item | ||
+ | </pre> | ||
+ | |||
+ | 6. Change the values to | ||
+ | <pre> | ||
+ | ITEM_NAME="Maemo kernel powerxx" | ||
+ | ITEM_KERNEL=2.6.28.10powerxx | ||
+ | </pre> | ||
+ | |||
+ | 7. On the N900's keyboard, ctrl s to save the file. | ||
+ | |||
+ | 8. Returning to Xterm: | ||
+ | <pre> | ||
+ | cp /etc/multiboot.d/examples/Maemo-powerxx.item /etc/multiboot.d | ||
+ | </pre> | ||
+ | |||
+ | 9. Reboot your device, you shall see a new multiboot entry for kernel-power. | ||
+ | |||
+ | ==Custom EMMC's== | ||
+ | |||
+ | Just in case you fear to run out of memory, here are custom EMMC's if you want to reflash with: | ||
+ | |||
+ | 5GB apps 24GB mydocs: http://www.mediafire.com/?j6srnaxwr3notaf | ||
+ | |||
+ | and | ||
+ | |||
+ | 8GB apps 21GB mydocs: http://www.mediafire.com/?5o1hkuuwhn8hh1c | ||
+ | |||
+ | == Uninstalling Nitdroid == | ||
+ | If on your mmc: | ||
+ | Open X Terminal and type the following commands: | ||
+ | |||
+ | <pre> | ||
+ | root | ||
+ | mount /dev/mmcblk1p2 /and -o noatime | ||
+ | nitdroid-uninstaller | ||
+ | </pre> | ||
+ | |||
+ | If on your emmc: | ||
+ | <pre> | ||
+ | root | ||
+ | mount /dev/mmcblk0p2 /and -o noatime | ||
+ | nitdroid-uninstaller | ||
+ | </pre> | ||
+ | |||
+ | After it completes, simply format your microSD card, then using filebox delete nitdroid's installation folders and files that were copied to home: | ||
+ | bin, data, dev, etc (symlink), initrd, lib (symlink), mnt, proc, sbin, sdcard, sys, system, tmp, usr,default.prop, init, init.nokia.rc, init.rc | ||
