Hopefully, by this week or next week, but who know what happen, maybe suddenly Meego come in with the same price or N900 price rise up high like a shooting star.
But still will take N900 at my first priority.

u don need 16gb to dual boot android, u need lesser than 2gb partition to install android.

thats why all the high capacity card has to be partitioned to less than 2gb for android and the rest left to be fat32

Flash 10.1 on Apple iPhone/iPad/whatnot (not adobe's flash)

http://digitaldj.net/2010/08/06/flash-for-...yes-frash-0-02/

at least they're getting somewhere with this... while nokia/maemo community just lingers around doing nothing...

hey guy can i know what is the "BatteryGarph" reading after full-charge?

my is full-charge reading: 94% and 1214mah, is it something wrong with the battery?
i been test few times....every time same result as above
*
the trick is when the battery is fully charged, and the LED blinks green, u have to pull it out immediately...

if you leave it on the charger, the charger cuts off power, the blinking LED uses some juice and even after 5 minutes on blinky blinky LED the power drops below 95%...

there was a symbian app that monitors charging activity and lets out an alarm when its 100% charged, waiting for a similar app on maemo...

if i am not mistaken n800/n810 had some app like that... cant remember the name...

You need to repartition your micro SD card, can do it with your N900. If you have a 8gig, make it 2gig - 6gig. 2 gig partition format to ext3 for android used, linux partition, and the 6 gig format it to FAT, so that you can store your files here.

Follow the guide here:

lee0125, try OCing Nitroid flash is much faster, biggrin.gif

@josh, its the best way buddy, i learned how to
1) run virtualxp/vbox linux on my pc
2) increased knowledge of maemo architecture
3) learned about partitioning, mounting/unmounting etc
4) become even more comfortable with xterm, biggrin.gif

My nitroid is using max speed 1000mhz


As for the fullscreen issue do this:

A) Firstst of all, you need to be on maemo 5 and have a text editor such as leafpad (my preferred, more user friendly than vi) installed.
run a xTerm session

1] type:
sudo gainroot
mount -t ext3 -o noatime,rw /dev/mmcblk1p2 /and


2] open the file build.prop in a text editor. if you have leafpad installed type:

leafpad /and/system/build.prop

3] in the file
search for the line "f.lcd_density=160"
and replace it by "f.lcd_density=240"

4]after that save it by clicking the upper contextual menu

exit leafpad

exit xTerm

reboot your device and voilaaaa !

B)If you want to to allow nitroid to OC :

1] first download this file
http://downloads.nitdroid.com/power.conf

2] next u need to mount the nitdroid partition in maemo

3] Open Xterm

4] type:

sudo gainroot
mount /dev/mmcblk1p2 /and
cd /and/system/etc


5] transfer the power.conf file that you downloaded into this folder


6] now u need to edit /and/init.nokia.rc and remove the cpu scaling lines :
( remove the entire #power management section )

7] if your using leafpad, type :

cd /and
leafpad init.nokia.rc


8] remove the section of text below:

# Power Management
write /sys/power/sleep_while_idle 1
write /sys/power/enable_off_mode 1
write /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor ondemand
write /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_min_freq 250000
write /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/ondemand/up_threshold 86
write /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/ondemand/sampling_rate 46875
write /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/cpuinfo_min_freq 250000
write /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/cpuinfo_max_freq 600000
write /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/cpuinfo_governor ondemand


9] save the file and next time u boot nitroid it will be OC'd


Added on August 9, 2010, 4:44 pmFor those interested in dual booting nitroid, refer

http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=58890

it has the most up to date installation method. however u need to check post number 2 for the latest nitroid build, 0.0.6

on another topic, anybody using the 'Shorctcutd' app? It allows you to set proximity sensor and camera button to for opening, phone, desktop commands, and even enable 'crtl+shift+r' for enabling autorotation, wink.gif
