oh, great! the charger really not working doh.gif

now I got to travel all the way and change another one mad.gif

Anyone care to remind me where to find the connection setting to always ask before auto connect? what should I set in the Autodisconnect under GPRS section? what if I got a MMS coming in and I can't a WIFI place, will the msg remain until I can get to a WIFI area? tongue.gif thanks in advance, it's really like bought a new pc, need to relearn everything

no laaaaaaaaaa............

Still around liao...................was a wee bit busy only...and still supporting N900 strongly...

As for the Dualbooting...

after reading a few post back...your Bootmenu .item file is correct ka???

Seems like u have .item for Nitdroid and .item for omap1 only...

Thats why u see only those 2...

or u checked this already?

sorry how do i check and rectify the.item file

QUOTE(super_evil_alien @ Jan 25 2011, 10:53 PM)
Did you install NITDroid in eMMC or microSD?
You may have to create the .item file manually.I'm quite sure your kernel power has been installed successfully.It's just you missing the multiboot file.
Not many abandon ship.Just busy.
*
multiboot file aaahhh how do i go abt this guys..
i installed using front page method i GUESS its on the emmc (dunno how to check)

QUOTE(angelbratz @ Jan 25 2011, 10:56 PM)
Josh....remove the:

Bootmenu
Kernel
kernel setting

and follow this...This method u tak payah pening kepala to copy paste or creating boot .item manually...It auto make for u...

http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p=911733&postcount=12

Did you try this method???

___________________________________________________________________________________________

Tak perasan u have Nitdroid installed...unless u wanna reinstall your nitdroid...

Ive installed and reinstalled nitdroid like almost 10 times already...kekekeke....
*
will try and update you guys...
im at a level to wipe clean my nitdroid and install roti halia but still blur on which is the best method.

Nope,you cannot just flash eMMC.
eMMC aka the 32GB internal memory contains the /home/ partition which contain applications file.As such you cannot flash the eMMC alone.You can manipulate the size of the partitions without losing data if thats what you want to do.

If you want a stock setting phone I suggest you to use FP Flashing Method B.It'll flash both rootfs & eMMC.
Don't remember...I'll test it again.
I think I played with both MPlayer & VLC.

About MeeGo device,I'll take a properly implemented OS over a hard end hardware any day.
Even for desktop PC the devs still yet to take full advantage of multiple CPU core.Not much games utilize the multiple CPU Cores.
N8 is good example of decent OS implementation.The CPU isn't all that powerful but the overall OS functions is quiet fluid.

I don't think hardware spec will be any problem.Most probably it'll have a dual core ARM processor at launching time & eventually Nokia will start using Atom SOC.
I'm still waiting whether Intel can deliver the promised 7 days standby time with moorestown based SOC.If they can deliver it I'll get a Intel CPU based MeeGo phone for sure even if the OS bit "patchy"
*
N8 actually is not fluid and smooth, the memory usage is very high... and these widgets when you go to Online Mode, it'll consume even more memory. Once you go offline, seems the memory isn't released. ANYWAY, I'm just using the default widget provided when I got the device + cpu and memory monitor. The usage memory usage is over 70%, if I open an app, the usage will shoot up to 90%++. If the usage is over, the phone will hang/soft-reset, all the memory released...
Software can be fixed/enhance, just a matter of how dedicated and fast/proper they do it; But hardware on mobile devices cannot be upgraded, so I'd prefer them to provided a good hardware "at the very least". Like N900, the OS is great, despite there are many things to improve and missing features, but these can be improve/enhance as long as the team continue to develop and support it. Plus, the OS can still be used for future devices, but for hardware, we're stuck. Like N900, if only it comes with MORE ram; but then again, it was a delayed model. Imagine if we can upgrade the hardware like ram, graphics, etc.
OR, there is a new update or replacement for N900 hardware... OR some company managed to create a powerful device which can run Maemo5...

For MeeGo, I would prefer them to provide "at least" a decent hardware specs, plus this is suppose to be a class above those smartphones. It doesn't have to be the latest, but it should have specs that will provide "MORE" than required, NOT "just enough" for DEFAULT settings. Users like to customize, if customization, adding widgets, etc slows down the device or cause not-enough-memory (e.g. N8), then to me, it's a failure.
As I said, hardware on these devices can't be upgraded, so, provide at least "more" than enough or capable for heavy usage/customization, next they can improve on the software optimization.

You can't come up with a perfect OS without testing, usage, etc. Software is improved overtime with new bugs found, new memory leaks discovered, better utilization/optimization, code enhancement, etc. All this require lots of time.
When the hardware is limited, the development team will need to work extra hard to find ways to improve the OS... and with such tie consuming and tedious process, they might only improved a only a little due to the limitation of the hardware, in the end, it's not worth the time and effort spend, especially at these times where technology advances very fast. The development team might just give up and said, it's limited by hardware. Unless this OS is used by many devices, they can optimize easier as new devices are made available, such as Android.

Even for iPhone, they're not going to spend a lot of time optimize for iPhone 2G, or have they stop updating it? It's not worth to spend too much time if the device hardware is so limited, but if the device hardware is good and has potential, the development team will have the dedication/interest/etc to work on it, improve it, optimize it. As what happen to N900, it's a great device, but mainly, it's the OS. If there is a more powerful device that can run this Maemo5, I believe, this will change again.....
For now, let's see what's ahead for MeeGo..........

well..sorry to say bro..the best way to fix this prob is to reflash..if no other methods seem to work, then that's your only option..

i had this prob..try to wiggle the headphone's connector..pull it slowly until it's 1/4 out..rotate it..if it doesn't work..pull out the headphone jack, then, re insert it..but do not fully reinsert it..while u slowly insert the jack, rotate it at the same time..

this is wat i did..and it eventually works..

Download this file & dump it at etc/multiboot.d/
Reboot & press2.
If it's still not working then I suggest you to just reflash.

Give some extra force when you connect the earphone.Try rotate the wire also.Sometimes it's just loose connection.

I lost my earphone looong time ago.Cannot test anymore.

Follow frontpage "Flashing Method B"

If it's not working or you're lazy to do it,you can send your phone to me.

You can change the resolution and bitrate higher but I don't think it will increase the original video quality.

No need to rename also can play, even you rename as some unknown extension also can play.

When use KMPlayer, you need to change the "player" to mplayer, default if I'm not wrong, it's using maemo5 default media player.

The charger definitely is not working, cause I plug in another Samsung charger using the same socket, it is charging fine (except no led orange light like the USB charging? could it because it only got 700mA output oppose to 1200mA) , I ask my brother to send it for exchange today

In the rush, I forget about the headphone doh.gif too late he is on the way already, nevermind, I might be going for a bluetooth headphone...those cable from headphone is...disturbing

Guru meditation...so far not clear reason why it came out...i also faced the same issue when i swap OS @ Nitdroid...

I just go in stock kernel, reinstall the power46, Flasher, module & bootimg and i can boot up the kernel already.
