Re: [Android] Eclair NITDroid (WIP)
I couldn't get newer kernels to come up on N810 (varied between framebuffer bringup issues after the n8x0-board refactor, SD/MMC driver issues, and obscure locking issues regarding the...

Re: [Android] Eclair NITDroid (WIP)
I'm not exactly sitting on anything exciting: I've got a linux-omap kernel that starts the Android init and then mysteriously crashes in the MMC driver and an Android 2.0 userland that sorta maybe...

Re: [Android] Eclair NITDroid (WIP)
bdogg64: there's all sorts of information on porting Android - from http://www.linuxfordevices.com/c/a/Linux-For-Devices-Articles/Porting-Android-to-a-new-device/ which talks about a non-NITDroid...

Re: Chrome OS on N900 ?
Gears is replaceable with HTML5 (thus why it's being discontinued) and since the N900 browser supports HTML5 local storage I don't see what the point is at all.

Re: [Android] Eclair NITDroid (WIP)
@Stskeeps: Haven't built yet, but N8x0 looks like just some refactors to use platform_board_infos instead of hardcoded values for i.e. GPIOs. N770 changes look more significant.
So I suspect it'll...

Re: [Android] Eclair NITDroid (WIP)
Yeah, it seems like linux-omap is pretty flaky.
I'm just going to flash the damn rootfs image for now, it's lots easier to debug MMC with a real userland rather than what I can fit in <500K and...

Re: [Android] Eclair NITDroid (WIP)
@sanjose:
I had to cherry-pick a specific commit from the linux-omap repo before the n800-board-xxx.c files were refactored into individual drivers and n8x0-board.c was added - it looks like when...

Re: [Android] Eclair NITDroid (WIP)
Status update: got a working kernel based on 2.6.30 linux-omap and android - will probably have to set up git somewhere at some point because trying to describe all the cherry-picks, merges, and...

Re: [Android] Eclair NITDroid (WIP)
I can't say for sure - it's not like I can come in and claim I'm going to have Bluetooth, Sound, GPS, and a Holy Grail before I've even got any of it working.
I'll lay out my steps so far and for...

Re: [Android] Eclair NITDroid (WIP)
No sound yet - I'm exploring it a little but I'm trying to get things stable first.
And yes, it's my N810 - should work on N800 as well (same kernel). N770 is probably a no-go - Android "requires"...

Re: Maemo-like OS on the Droid?
The Droid is a heavily promoted carrier phone and as such is pretty heavily locked down - you would have to reverse engineer a variety of pieces and break some signature checking and encryption in...

Re: Android as main OS on N810?
There's no reason Android can't be made flashable, but I don't think the audience would be very big - in addition to instability running Android on the tablet is pretty niche as it's a phone OS by...

Re: Chrome OS on N900 ?
It would probably be easier (and a lot smarter) to just make a psuedo-ChromeOS, something that boots a Nokia / Nokia-esque kernel and initrd and then just starts X and a web browser (maybe Chromium...

Re: Android apps on Maemo

[Android] Eclair NITDroid (WIP)
I tried building Android 2.0 (Eclair) last night and getting it working using the amazing work of solca et. al as a base.
I've got it booting and the UI functional - no WiFi or battery yet (just...
