  • flash the image and the kernel with NeoTool

Usage

Buttons

  • AUX (short press) shows the keyboard
  • Power (short press) suspends the Neo

  • make and use a swapfile on your µSD (warning: this may destroy the µSD card after uncertain time)
  • save the TangoGPS map files on the µSD as there is little space left on the NAND
