Android NewsSome clever coders over on internettablettalk.com have managed to successfully port the Android OS onto the Nokia N810, and have even made it as simple as installing an application.

The successful Android port also includes a working TouchScreen interface, a fully functional browser and Maps integration.

Installation Instructions

No partitioning needed (135MB free space needed)
———————————————–
Step #1
Put android.img.bz2 on your memory card

After putting the file on the memory card (either one) there must be 110MB free space on whichever card is holding the android.img.bz2 image.

You can get the file here (See md5sum information below)

Step #2
Then install the deb, this will flash your kernel and give you an icon in extras menu to start Android.

Once complete you just reboot

  6. Thanks so much for the links and instructions! It does seem to work!

    It doesn’t seem perfect but it does indeed work! I have installed Maemo (Diablo) on my flash drive, in a partion. Here is the link for how to boot from flash:

    https://wiki.maemo.org/Booting_from_a_flash_card

    From what I understand utilizing a flash card can increase performance, so I think Android will work better.

    Some things don’t seemto be working but the browser does.

    It would be so great if upgrades and apps can be installed. I’m not sure if apps can be installed but i’m definitly gonna try.

    I’ll report back with what happens.

  7. so how to deploy any android apps into nokia?
    which model support for android?? I ask google but he said nothing.

  8. What are the supported models for installing Indroid ??

    I couldn’t find an answer to that anywhere

  9. hello. I can’t find instruction to install .deb file on mt Nokia5800 :(
    Can you help me, please?!

  10. the broken url
    https://penguinbait.com/adroid-installer.deb
    should be
    https://penguinbait.com/aNdroid-installer.deb

    ;)

  11. you must reboot. Hold the off button down until it turns off then turn back on, click in the icon

  12. From what I’ve read on the www.internettablettalk.com forums, this is no longer being maintained. Instead, they point to another option called NITdroid. I haven’t played with it yet. I plan to sometime in the near future.

  13. hey i have the same problem too. i installed everything correctly but android is not loading. i see the progress bar and its been there for over an hour now. let me know how the other kernel is Matthew

  14. I’ve run through the instructions and I suppose I get Android installed properly but it never successfully loads.

    I’ve installed android-installer.deb and android-update.deb. When I run it from Applications->Extras it sits for a while and only after the screen blanks and I tap it to turn it back on do I see the Android progress bar. However, it is frozen. I’ve given it well more than the ~60 seconds you stated were needed but still, no go.

    This was with the 43-7 kernel update from Nokia. I’m going to try with the kernel the device shipped with to see what happens.
