NITDroid installation

I'm disappointed that NOKIA announced they will use WM for their new N9 series phone, and that makes me wanting to give up Maemo. I've used iPhone before. Its a good experience to use a smart phone. But it is too expensive for me. So, I want to migrate to Android based. For some reasons: Android had good integration with Google services, that's helpful to me. Android also has lots of applications on AppMarket. Android based phone is cheaper than iPhone. So, I tried to install NITDroid on my NOKIA N900. I want to thanks to the NITDroid project! Its very easy to install NITDroid on NOKIA N900 for now. The following is the notes I've been tried. Preparing a microSD card, and 2G size is recommended. Add a repo: extra-devel on Maemo's application manager. Install a package named nitdroid-installer on Maemo. Click the Application icon or run 'nitdroid' with superuser for automatic installation. After the installation, reboot the phone to entering the Android world...

NOKIA N900 upgrade

There are 3 ways to upgrade your N900. OTA Over The Air. YES! Upgrade your phone online. Its easily but might cause problems after OTA. PC suite Use NOKIA OVI suite or NOKIA Software Updater. Upgrade your phone with PC suite and backup your file before you starting. That's the safest way to upgrade your N900! But all chinese support will be lost after upgraded. Rewrite with flasher Get the flasher with latest ROM file. Rewrite the ROM with latest version. You don't have to rewrite eMMC content unless the system crashed. Besides, if you've been upgrade your phone but ran into some problems, you'd better rewrite your ROM again with the same version. All chinese support also will be lost after upgraded. You can easily done with above way for upgrading. Enjoy yourself! ps. I already upgraded my N900 to PR 1.3. XD
