3. Are you ready for NIT? ДА или НЕТ?!?
a. Download tarball from here: http://downloads.nitdroid.com/e-yes/n9/nitdroid_n9_ics_alpha1.tar.bz2 , check its integrity, md5 sum for this archive is ee57d8c3b9199e87bb5c355e8c9d1cc3
b. copy the archive to your Nokia N9.
c. execute "as root" command:
Code: [Select]
tar xjvf /path_to_archive/nitdroid_n9_ics_alpha1.tar.bz2 -C /home/4. Reboot, push "Volume Up" button when message "Press VolUp to boot alternative OS" appear . Wait a little, pray a little...
First of all: go to Settings->Display->Sleep, choose "30 minutes". Critical defect ("too deep sleep to ping watchdogs") is yet to be fixed.
Don't let your device sleep. Otherwise it will switch off:)
Enjoy!
5. Usefull stuff:
get adb from Android SDK (http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html)
Commands that would make your life easier:
adb connect 192.168.2.15:5039 -- connect to your device. USB/ADB is broken, but ADB works well over USB networking.
adb logcat -- for reading "main" log
adb logcat -b radio -- for reading "radio" log
adb shell -- to enter to shell
adb pull/push -- allow get/put file from/to the device
adb shell rr -- "restart radio" -- restarts ofono and RIL
adb shell bb -- show battery/charging status
