So i searched and searched to see if anyone else had the same issue.. and i can't seem to find a thread anywhere and I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction.. I followed the steps to ge CM7 on my touchpad.. and when i hit the novacom boot mem:// <ACMEInstaller it goes to the hp logo and sits there.. i let it sit there for 20 mins. still nothing.. I saw on one of the videos that was release earlier today it goes almost instant to installing CM7. Hope someone could help me with this.. or even a work around..
Thanks,
Krohn
I've got the exact same problem.
NovaTerm:
device_command_rx:502: got request: verb 'boot', url 'mem://', argc 0
parse_uimage:238: uimage 0x41000000
EDIT: I got back to webos. Follow this post.
1:In cmd, run:cd program files\palm, inc
2: novacom boot mem:// < uimage.moboot_0.3.3
3: Be ready, Moboot gives you 4 seconds to select a rom.
I still don't have dual boot.
i had some help in irc.. I had a bad ACMEInstaller .. so i got a new one and it worked!
Just redownload? That simple?
same deal here. I tried twice, no difference. Then I Reset/wiped the touchpad and tried again. It worked fine.
I did take my touchpad two or three minutes to get to the double penguin screen for some reason. (all three times) Nonthing about mine was instant like in the video(s).

Hey guys I had the same problem as all those described above, so I re-downloaded the ACMEInstaller.zip file, checked the md5 sum (it matched) and tried again. It worked! Must have had a problem on the first download or something.

Hello, I just bought my G-tablet and I have severely screwed it over. First, I rooted it and installed CWM, (It went fine). Then I flashed Cyanogen 7, following their wiki full update instructions. It was running fine till I found out that for some reason, my computer nor the tablet even knew it had an SD (Computer found nothing, File explorer on tablet had nothing) coupled with the fact Gapps refused to install, I figured this would be solved in a wipe then another flash. Nothing was different. So I wiped again (seemed to have froze during) but the flash of Vegan 5.1 seemed to have went well... for now. However, trying to install Adobe Flash via the preinstalled android market, it wouldn't install. It kept saying download unsuccessful, for every single app I tried. (no it's not an network problem). Being the noob I am I started following random googled XDA threads on how to fix this. I partioned 4gig from my sd to see if that would fix the market problem. I got stuck in a bootloop so I was forced to reflash vegan. When I did, I found out that when I tried to install anything it said something along the lines of "Not enough space" knowing I had 13 gigs of memory leftover, I figured I'd try rebooting. Got stuck in bootloop. Then followed yet ANOTHER googled guide (droidpirate brick fix) and now I can't even access CWM. It just loads as IF it were going to CWM but then shows me a /!\ caution sign then instantly turns off. When I normally start it, it goes into bootloop. when I try to get to CWM (holding volume up, power) it goes to a useless flash that I presume just fails, then brings me back into the bootloop. As far as I see, I have no way of fixing this...
I know this is so much to read, so in a brief explanation.. I'm in a bootloop, cannot get into CWM (brings me to a failed flash then back into boot loop) and am in dire need of assistance Please help me

NvFlash is currently not working for me, I don't know exactly where I messed up but my computer already has the drivers to read the tablet. when I run the .bat, it doesn't seem to do anything.
Scratch that, got it to work. I didn't extract one of the folders entirely. But my tablet is still stuck in bootloop even after this? what now?

Take this with a grain of salt, as I learned it is not 'always' your friend
Now it's just on the stock Viewsonic birds and Gtablet logo bootloop...
Even after I NvFlashed it... Still can't access CMW.
Any suggestions?
Nvm, I got it to what appears to be working. (and I just about jizzed all over my tab.) Thanks so much. Saved me a beating from my parents.
I've tried to look for this problem and haven't found anything similar. If it's already been addressed please direct me to the previous thread, if this is in the wrong place please move it.
I rooted my Galaxy S II a while ago and it's been working great. I wanted to try Cyanogen mod 7 and so I followed the instructions on their website. Trying to use ROM manager gave me a weird error message telling me that there was an invalid signature or something, despite toggling everything and wiping the cache to turn it off. So I followed the "method via recovery" instructions. I did everything exactly as it is there, including the Google apps stuff, and it all seemed to work perfectly. Then I rebooted it hoping for it to boot into CM7, and instead, when it turns on it goes to the screen saying Samsung Galaxy S II with the yellow triangle underneath, and stays there. Every time it turn it on it goes to that screen and doesn't change. It's now been like that for half an hour. I can start it up into download mode, and I've tried flashing zImage to it again, but no change.
I have a NANDroid backup (it's backed up with CWM anyway), and I've copied the backup to my computer, but I have no idea how to apply it when the bloody thing won't turn on.
I'm using Linux with Heimdall (the cross-platform Odin clone).
Please help me. Unfortunately I have no internet in my flat so I won't be able to see any advice until tomorrow unless it;s given in the next ten minutes. God I really hope the thing's ok.
Hi
Do you have jigg? ( if you don't have it buy it from ebay or ask some friend of you )
With jigg you can enter download mode and then flash the stock rom.
Pull battery, wait 10s, then boot while holding power+vol-up+home. This should get you in recovery. Then restore nandroid.

I can't believe it was this simple, I knew power+vol-down+home got tme to downloading but I didn't know that got me into recovery. Everything's recovered now.
Thank you Dutch people!
I already tried downloading it from the original post, but it says daily traffic limit reached. Already tried waiting two days, but the error remains. Could someone please upload it somewhere, or provide a working link? Help would be much appreciated, as Adam's method is my last hope.
Thanks in advance!

This is how I downloaded it a few weeks ago.
Good luck!
Thank you for your help, I managed to download and run the ubuntu recovery, but now I ended up being stuck at the "n" read forever screen. I already tried the 8 failed boots method, nothing changed. Any idea what to do now?
ouch.
It ran without a hitch for me (after I got it on card big enough to handle, sheesh). Head back to Adam's thread, I'm sure someone will be able to help you there.
After you put in the card you made, you did see ubuntu running, right?
When booting from Adams recovery sd it will take a long time before you even get to the 100 second countdown timer (about 5 MINUTES). It takes an additional 20 minutes or so to format, write zeros to all the partitions snd rewrite each with data for 1.4.0. THE SCREEN WILL TIME OUT at some point in the process and i found you can just press the N button to turn it back on to monitor progress. When it is finished, the script will tell you to take out the SD and then the tablet will reset and go into a recovery and reset the firmware. I had an issue reregistering when the B and N screen came up so i skipped registration by holding volume up and touching the left and right corners of the screen at the play video screen. A factory button appears and after pressing that, you hold volume up and touch right corner of screen and an option to skip Oobe registration appears. Skip oobe and then you are ready to root. Personally i made a CM7 root card and booted with it. I THEN INSTALLED CWM with Indirects recovery tool apk. Then you can flash Cm9 to the internal and use cyanoboot to chose between the internal cm9 or sd cm7. Good luck!

had to go to virtual box
my problem was not the downlaod. i got it from the OP link w/ no prob. but w/ windoze, the microhcsd did not work. aarrgghh. adam kind of responded to that conplaint by saying 'windoze has problems and linux does not'... so i am like a big zero w/ ubuntu but what the hay. i dnlded oracle's virtual box and got it going. then i dnlded ubuntu but did not like its layout and looks so i dnlded mint and that seemed better ( for me ). within mint, i made the sd using a cheapie 16GB from amazon. you do have to have patience and there is very little feedback. well, with the new sd, the un-brick process worked. just pluggin it into the pc and it ( slowly ) gets going. you think its still dead and will not work and then it comes to life and you see ubuntu graphics and its running its script. there is a progress bar of sorts. then you power on and it is at 1.40 and you have to skip over the OOBE ( out of box experience )
.
gotcha for me was that it was NOT powered off when you think it was powered off. the screen has a black / blank mode and then the 'real' black / blank mode. if you hold the tab at a really sharp obtuse angle . . . you can see that it is 'on' when you thought it was 'off'. with no cable attached, press and hold the power button for five seconds to make it off-off...
So my dad's touchpad recently started being weird. I thought that it was because it didn't have enough charge so I told him to charge it. Now that it has some amount of charge, the boot menu comes up (I installed AOKP for him) but whenever I select it, it bootloops into the boot menu again. The same problem occurs when I select WebOS under the menu. I tried to get into CWM recovery but that has problems too because I can get into it but no options actually come up and I can't select anything.
tl;dr, I can't boot into Android or WebOS.
Is there any guides that I can follow with this problem? I know some things about Webosdoctor but I just need some direction is all. Thank you.

Try this link :

Read the whole thing. Around page 12 there's a good work around if you're having trouble with novaterm.
Let the tablet charge for a few hours before trying the process.

Thank man. I looked at that guide too but wasn't sure if that would allow me to reach a resolution. I'll try it since at this point my dad's touchpad is a brick.
Here's another thread that could be helpful : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=33669700#post33669700
Hey all, this is my first post on this forum. I registered just to let my voice be heard.
Let me just say that I have done extensive research into these problems but I don't want to brick my phone so I want to know the direct steps for me.
OK my problems are:
Upon turning on the phone the original Motorola logo is gone and is instead replaced by:
"Unlocked. PwrReason: PWR_KEY_PRESS. OS will boot in 5 seconds. Press a key to stop countdown. Avaliable Modes are: " and lists 14 different modes I can choose
This happened after I accidentally deleted my pds folder or something of the sort. I must've partitioned something accidentally and as a result my phone did not boot the next time around. It booted after I did a battery pull but gave me the next problem.
Upon booting into CM10.1 I noticed that the soft keys would not work. The entire screen was recognized as one big touch surface.
I deduced that some file was deleted which makes the screen recognize the soft keys, so I proceeded to do some research into it. The methods I saw to do were doing some sort of pdsfix which is not recommended unless necessary, which in my case is very necessary. I can boot into Romracer's recovery (5.0.2.7 I believe it is) as well as my OS. Everything is working except for those problems I listed. I am not sure if my phone can boot into fastboot but I can try. Please post your answers because I really need to get my phone working perfectly again. At this point, it is only useful for texting and a little music (and settings). I can't go into much else without restarting the phone each time (you must know why).
EDIT 15/04/13
-----------------------------------------------------------
I just flashed pdsfix(gingerbread).zip and I am now able to use my phone at normal speeds and even overclock if necessary. I was running epinter's CM10.1 Rom
Fixed half the problem!
Okay so after many hours of trying, I managed to install the drivers for fastboot on my computer and did the fix for the pds file.
First I downloaded moto-fastboot.zip and extracted to my C:/ drive.
Then I tested if my device was recognized. It didn't recognize it at all, so I went into device manager.
In device manager there was my problem. I saw fastboot with a yellow exclamation sign. I right-clicked it and directed it to where I had previously downloaded fastboot drivers. (Found them here: FASTBOOT DRIVERS
It installed nicely and when I tried the commands listed in Method 2 on this page PDS Partition Fix it worked perfectly!
So I proceeded to restart the phone, no issues. But the Motorola logo at the very beginning is still not there. It says unlocked at the top left and displays the same options as before. The phone is still fully functional without it, but I want to get it back. I will be doing more to fix this though.
But the best part is that, my soft-keys are working perfectly! :laugh: I do notice a little lag in the system but that will be fixed soon. Hope this helped anyone who didn't know what to do.
P.S. If you find a way to restore the Motorola logo on boot, please tell me!

Perfect! Thanks much for finding that for me. I now have the problems fixed except that my cpu won't clock above 608 mhz even when I put the min clock slider higher than that value.
I suspect that perhaps I flashed the froyo pdsfix instead of gingerbread. Maybe that is causing the problem. I'll try and post my results soon.
My Atrix 4g is fixed!!
Wow I can't believe I finally fixed it! It was as I suspected. After downloading the pdsfix(gingerbread).zip I rebooted my phone into fastboot and proceeded to flash the zip. And who would've guessed it? I am now able to clock at usual speeds including the 1000MHz of old ^_^. I am sooo glad I found this forum. If anyone had similar problems you can try the steps I did.
P.S. For the record I was running epinter's CM10.1 Rom for the Atrix 4g. I may go to Neutrino's in the near future, but I am just glad to have my phone back in working order :laugh::laugh:
