+ | #Open x Terminal | ||
+ | #:<code>root <br />nitdroid <br />YES</code> | ||
+ | #After Nitdroid installs (20 minutes on 70 kb/s download speed) '''don't reboot your phone to nitdroid'''! | ||
+ | #Tap the drop down menu in Xterm click new and close the one before (the one that said Nitdroid was successfully installed) | ||

+ | #Make the multiboot .item. | ||
- | + | ==The procedure of running Nitdroid 0.0.8 on your EMMC== | |
+ | ---- | ||
- | + | Open x Terminal | |
- | ''' | + | *: <code>root</code> |
+ | **mount the partition | ||
+ | **:<code>mount /dev/mmcblk1p2 /and</code> | ||
+ | **Copy android system files over to /home | ||
+ | **:<code>cp -rp /and/* /home</code> | ||
+ | **edit the boot file | ||
+ | **:<code>leafpad /etc/multiboot.d/11 </code> | ||
+ | **:(then tap the tab button, ur .item file will show hit enter to open in leafpad) | ||
+ | :*edit .item file to look like this: | ||
+ | <pre>ITEM_NAME="NITdroid on MMCp2 - 2.6.28.NIT.05" | ||
+ | ITEM_KERNEL=2.6.28.NIT.05 | ||
+ | ITEM_MODULES=ext3 fat vfat | ||
+ | ITEM_DEVICE=${[B]INT[/B]_CARD}p2 | ||
+ | ITEM_FSTYPE=ext3 | ||
+ | ITEM_FSOPTIONS=rw,noatime,errors=remount-ro,commit=3 | ||
+ | EOF</pre> | ||
+ | ::_____________'''OR'''_____________ | ||
+ | ::'''If you followed the manual installation guide with and u don't have a microsd:''' | ||
+ | :*change the .item file to: | ||
+ | <pre>ITEM_NAME="NITdroid on MMCp2 - 2.6.28.NIT.05" | ||
+ | ITEM_KERNEL=2.6.28.NIT.05 | ||
+ | ITEM_MODULES=ext3 fat vfat | ||
+ | ITEM_DEVICE=mmcblk0p5 | ||
+ | ITEM_FSTYPE=ext3 | ||
+ | ITEM_FSOPTIONS=rw,noatime,errors=remount-ro,commit=3 | ||
+ | EOF | ||
+ | </pre> | ||
+ | *Once editing is complete click the drop down menu on leafpad and save then close leafpad. | ||
+ | *Close Xterm, then reboot ur N900 with keyboard open and type 2 for Nitdroid | ||
+ | you'll notice that booting will take less time, and if u want u can remove ur back cover and ur microsd to check. BUT u can't boot without something in the microsd slot, any microsd will work even empty ones. | ||
+ | ==Frequent errors== | ||
+ | ---- | ||
- | + | '''Guru Meditation:''' | |
- | + | ||
- | + | ||
- | + | If you have NITDroid that ends in .06 and you are facing this error, delete the words that are <u>underlined</u> from your multiboot file. | |
- | + | Root filesystem mmcblk0p5 NOT available! | |
+ | Guru Meditation #000000025.62017712 | ||
+ | Hit any key to panic! | ||
- | == | + | ITEM_NAME="NITdroid on MMCp2 - 2.6.28.NIT.05" |
- | === | + | ITEM_KERNEL=2.6.28.NIT.05 |
- | + | ITEM_MODULES=ext3 <u>fat vfat</u> | |
+ | ITEM_DEVICE=${INT_CARD}p2 | ||
+ | ITEM_FSTYPE=ext3 | ||

- | === | + | '''If you didn't find maemo in multiboot:''' |
- | Open | + | |
- | + | Type 0 to boot stock kernel. | |
- | + | ||
- | + | == Some things you'll notice after installing it on the internal memory == | |
- | + | ---- | |
- | rm -rf /and/. | + | #Runs much faster, even faster than a class 8 card. |
+ | #The battery doesn't drain as fast as with microsd. Had it off charger all day playing games and surfing the Internet and got it to only use 40% of the battery. | ||
+ | #Pretty good given now you can use it without it draining the battery! | ||
+ | |||
+ | ==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 gonna be fixed in later releases. | ||
+ | |||
+ | ===Airplane Mode Fix=== | ||
+ | |||
+ | For people who enabled airplane mode, fixes that are in here were tried by me: | ||
+ | |||
+ | *Enable the widget power control and turn airplane mode off | ||
+ | *If this didn't work disable pin code in maemo | ||
+ | *menu→devtools→terminal emulator | ||
+ | su | ||
+ | rr | ||
+ | |||
+ | *The technical solution: | ||
+ | cd /and/data | ||
+ | rm -rf * | ||
+ | mkdir logs | ||
+ | chmod 777 logs | ||
+ | cd / | ||
+ | umount /and | ||
+ | |||
+ | ===Google account sign-in=== | ||
+ | |||
+ | Skip google sign-up in the first tutorial instead, sign up/in google once in NITDroid. | ||
+ | |||
+ | ==Overclocking== | ||
+ | ---- | ||
+ | |||
+ | #You can download ready GUI's from the market for OCing | ||
+ | #Or use one of these profiles: http://forum.nitdroid.com/index.php?topic=116.0 | ||
+ | |||
+ | ==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 == | ||
+ | ---- | ||
+ | |||
+ | Open x Terminal: | ||
+ | |||
+ | <pre>root | ||
+ | mount /dev/mmcblk1p2 /and -o noatime | ||
+ | nitdroid-uninstaller | ||
</pre> | </pre> | ||
- | + | After it completes, simply format your sd 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 | |
