Howdy everyone! It's thecubed / IOMonster again!
This time, I'm back with a MONSTER release
For all those asking "What's a Monster RootPack"? It's simple!
It's a SD card image containing a bootable Clockwork Recovery 3.0.0.5 and a set of .zip files that allow you to root your device and install Google Apps (market, gmail, youtube, etc).
All you have to do is read the instructions-- it explains the rest.
Please be sure to read ALL the instructions first before using this utility!
All the instructions can be found here: http://legacyschool.us.to/nookdev/clockwork/rootpack-instructions.html
Be sure to read through them!

I'm not one for huge forum posts, so keeping all the instructions on one URL helps me stay organized

Updates:
Version 0.7
New build environment!
New CWR sizes, rootpack reduced to 128mb image. (We now have 128mb, 1gb, 2gb, 4gb, and 8gb images!)
1.1 Rooting and Google Apps support! (thanks D3cad3nc3!)
FIXED: backup/restore from CWM now works correctly!
Version 0.5
Well, packages.xml is in /data/system, not /system .. oops.
Release of 128mb bootable Clockwork SD card also
Adds block-1.1.zip and unblock-1.1.zip to block the updates the easy way!
Version 0.4r2
Bugfixes. Lots of 'em.
Version 0.4
Fix root.zip and googleapps.zip permissions problems (/data/app and /system/app DO have different owners and permissions)
Bootable CWM base: No change; version bumped to 0.4 just because.
Version 0.3
Update to most recent Clockwork Recovery 3.0.0.5 build (should have working backup/restore, and defaults to ext2/ext3 support instead of ext4)
Fixes root.zip and googleapps.zip bugs (can't believe I forgot a semicolon!)
Updates installclockwork.zip to latest Clockwork Recovery build supporting ext2/3
Version 0.2
Initial public beta release

This brings me to my final point: this rootpack has been tested on my device, but I'm sure there are still bugs! If you want a time-tested method for rooting your device, stick with AutoNooter for the time being.
BUT! I really need testers! If you'd like to test this, please let me know.
Questions/comments welcome!
woot! thanks iomonster! this will make my tinkering much easier, mwahahahaha!
CWR works beautifully booting from SDCard, you sir are the man of the hour I shall email you two internets!
However, I do not see the zip files you refer too (Does not really matter that much as by itself its amazing!)

The real credits go to the awesome dudes of ClockworkMod, nemith on IRC, FatTire on IRC, [mbm] on IRC, and a LONG list of other people that I am soon to credit with a rather large section in my instructions
Glad it helps!
EDIT: The zips are only in the rootpack_1gb.tar.gz -- they're actually in the sd image. Clockwork_1gb.tar.gz is just a bootable clockwork, for the people who just want a platform without any additions (and a speedy download! the rootpack is 24mb, whereas the clockwork card is only 8mb)
yeah, ive been too preoccupied with work to hop on IRC lately , i need to get my butt back in there... this weekend for sure.

something is up with the img file for the rootpack, it claims not enough space on my 2gb card and my 16gb card... cwr only img seems to be fine.. just a heads up
I take it back.... my work laptop is just a POS, my thinkpad does it just fine! whatever.... so much for Dell!

How big did it decompress to be? It should only be around 900MB... unless I accidentally compressed it wrong somehow...
Seems to decompress fine for me.. 941-ish MB.. should fit just fine on any SD 1GB or larger...
What If You're Already Rooted..
Can this be done or (groans mightily) do we have to revert all the way back to stock?
Ok, I followed the directions exactly, and the device went into a boot loop. It installed the Root, then tried to install the googleapps.zip and received an error 6. Tried rebooting and running the googleapps.zip again, same error.
Ultimately, I used the AutoNooter process and it worked perfectly.

Thank you for your feedback! I'll be sure to check out why the device was bootlooping.
As for the error 6, that'll be interesting to track down.. it's probably a missing semicolon somewhere haha.
One question-- when it was bootlooping, did you see the new boot animation? or did it just go to the "touch the future of reading" to the "n" screen and over and over again?
Well this is embarrassing! I forgot to include the modified ramdisk in the root.zip... your device started bootlooping because I renamed the ramdisk, but forgot to copy the new one in place! Gah! Oops!
This, sir, is amazing!!!!

Probably a missing semicolon somewhere... I'm not at my desktop at the moment though, I'll post back with an update soon, and replacement .zips just incase you don't want to reburn the SD card. (you can just drag+drop 'em to the SD card once you have it made)
Version 0.3 is now out! Give it a spin and let me know what you think!

Great news guys! Look forward to testing it.
How do I edit the list?

That's probably why you got such a response funny enough im sure you was one of the first crying out for Cyanogen on gen8 at least we have something and not just a topic with users slagging each other off!!
Thankyou gbohm openaos and especially bubu for all of your hard work, great start
I have Xron-ified vB2.9.1 rom installed on my touchpad, when it goes from Moboot to Cyanogenmod there is a quick error message that says the splash screen is too large for the display area, then it goes on to boot normally with the Cyanogenmod loading screen, followed by the colored flipping tiles screen and on to the home screen. This error seems to have no effect on the boot or the performance, but I just wanted to throw it out there. I've had this error on vB2.8 and vB2.9 versions of the rom.
Otherwise, I have no major issues and no complaints. I have been fortunate with these flashes and have somehow avoided all of the major issues I have been reading about.
Thanks guys and keep up the great work!
Gotta update Moboot!
Yup update moboot to the latest version tht will fix the problems.

Have you updated your moboot to the latest version. For link see above in my previous post.
Sent from my Touchpad using Tapatalk
I have been looking for "how" to update moboot.
First... for those who have not been back to Acme Installer since your initial install... you will need it again. Every post I saw just said update moboot... I had CWM on the brain.... I have many pc's, so had to figure out which one had the Palm sdk installed on it... it also had the acmeinstall tool. You will need both of those.
Second. I went to the above site with my touch pad. Downloaded the file. then used my file manager to move the moboot_0.3.5.zip file to my old cminstall folder.
Third step. On my XP computer I opened a CMD prompt as admin and changed to the directory where the palm sdk was installed. I could see the acme installer in there.
Fourth - Shut off touch pad, plugged the USB cable into the pc
Step 5 - Fired up the touchpad and chose Webos recovery mode from the list. Did not have to hold the volume anymore which was pretty cool.
Last but not least - Rejoice as moboot gets rewritten, sys reboots, and I have a cool Xron logo where the old image does not fit error used to be. =)
If there is a better way than this please share. Worked for me, but who knows...
Forgot to add this line.
novacom boot mem:// < ACMEInstaller
that is what you type at the dos prompt
Just a heads up... Had to re-use this trick a 2nd time today. Decided to update to 3.0.5 of web os. It eliminated moboot.
It was not too tough to fix though. I added a few dual pane file manager in web os. Downloaded moboot again and put it in the cminstall folder.
shut down,
rebooted holding the power and volume up.
the rest was the same as above.
Cannot remember the file manager... Sorry. It was free though. Had what reminded me of a major's rank in the center of it...
I tracked down the file manager I used. It is Tegi's Commander. Took me a second to figure out how to move the file... I tried to just drag it, but it was a long press gig.

Had you updated moboot before updating WebOS? As of the moboot update 0.3.4 that shouldn't happen, WebOS updates should not remove moboot (Source: JCSullins). I updated my WebOS to 3.0.5 and moboot remained untouched!!
Also as prev stated 0.3.5 will remove splash-screen size error!!
thanks for the information. I was actually able to figure it out on my own, and thankfully I did exactly what you guys suggested. For anyone else reading this, the instructions above work brilliantly! Thank you guys for your help and your quick responses and please excuse my delayed replies.
Hey Kids, I figured it was getting kind of boring around here so I'm releasing a little tool I've been using for a while now. It's just what it says, an "Auto Flasher". It will flash any rom, any kernel, backup data, restore data, fix permissions, etc. With full wipe function or just a cache and delvik wipe. All from the comforts of your pc. Just plug in your evo3d with usb debugging enabled and some room on your sdcard and off you go. Oh, almost forgot. This will also Odex all your system apk's if you like. It's on the menu. Even if you have some odexed, it will skip over those.
Things to do first:
1. Run the AF4.5setup.exe. Choose a location (I like the desktop) to run it from. It will create a folder called Auto Flasher V4.5.
1.a Run the 2.08setup.exe and the 2.17setup.exe *(these are just RUU 2.08 and RUU 2.17. Download them even if you already have them. The exe will install them to the proper folder.)
2. Open the Auto Flasher V4.5\Place-Files-Here\ROM folder and copy paste your rom of choice.
3. Open the Auto Flasher V4.5\Place-Files-Here\Kernel folder and copy paste your kernel of choice (if your flashing a kernel).
4. Make sure USB debugging is on and you have about 500 mb on your sdcard.
5. If you need HTC drivers, look in the \Drivers folder. (Install them first).
6. Run the Auto_Flasher_V4.5.bat.
7. Sit back with a brew and watch the show. (It will prompt you a couple of times for some yes and no questions).
NOTES:
I had to separate the .exe's because of file size limitations on DevHost. If your not doing a firmware change then you don't need them. But I recommend you download them.
When restoring data, run your rom first for a couple of minutes. I found everything takes nicer.
When running "11. Fastboot Radio/Wimax Flasher" Please make sure you don"t interrupt this. You won't like the results. If something goes wrong, you will have to flash your radio manually because you'll be in a nasty bootloop.
This is a beta release. Many improvements on the way.
Disclaimer:
If you say I bricked your phone. I will laugh. Nothing this does can't be undone with a nand restore. So for the love of god, DO A NAND BACKUP FIRST!!!

Yes. the zipped folder has TWRP 1.1.1 in it, which works the same way, if you run it manually with ADB and Fastboot. The OP has made the process a little shorter and easier for you.

Hey guys, I need someone with Hboot 1.50 to test this. I'm on 1.40. I believe you need to use the HTC Unlock Hboot 1.50 method first found here http://www.htcdev.com/bootloader . Then just use the tool. Thanks.
Will HBOOT 1.5 users be able to flash new radios/wimax with this without having to run the latest ruu? Thanks
Hello guys.
I just got a brand new TouchPad 32GB. WebOS is very nice, but there are not many applications, so I'm trying to intall CM9.
I have all the drivers installed correctly, I can put the touchpad in developer mode, and USB mode
Problem is, MOST of the links on the guides are outdated. I tried guides here, guides on rootwiz, guides on XDA.
So I started looking for the files myself, and now I have.
e0664157ed69f8999e1c3ee77cdc53ae ACMEInstaller2
7b49b53a9d70315c40dccde9fc20e7a9 ACMEInstaller3
7642f3f0a8090dc52445541a94ed8164 cm-9-20120816-NIGHTLY-tenderloin.zip
980139d6b46b9cbba4db0e07ad17ba5d moboot_0.3.5.zip
1308300f38685d44afde730efd9132cc update-cwm_tenderloin-1012.zip
So I copied all the files from c:\downloads\touchpad to \cminstall on my touchad.
Rebooted into recovery, and did the:
C:\DOWNLOADS\TOUCHPAD>"C:\Program Files\Palm, Inc\novacom.exe" boot mem:// < ACMEInstaller2
The touchpad did some magic, including some linux thing/scorlling, rebooted, but now I'm back at webos.
So, did i forgot something? Should I use ACMEInstaller2 or ACMEInstaller3 (or even ACMEInstaller?).
Thanks.
EDIT: OK. I just realized that the Boot menu gives you some seconds and then it boots to WebOS.
Now, when it boots, I get this options:
Boot webOS
Boot ClockworkMod
boot webOS Recovery
reboot
shutdown
NONE of the options allows me to boot into CM9. I'm missing something?

Hello guys.
I just got a brand new TouchPad 32GB. WebOS is very nice, but there are not many applications, so I'm trying to intall CM9.
I have all the drivers installed correctly, I can put the touchpad in developer mode, and USB mode
Problem is, MOST of the links on the guides are outdated. I tried guides here, guides on rootwiz, guides on XDA.
So I started looking for the files myself, and now I have.
e0664157ed69f8999e1c3ee77cdc53ae ACMEInstaller2
7b49b53a9d70315c40dccde9fc20e7a9 ACMEInstaller3
7642f3f0a8090dc52445541a94ed8164 cm-9-20120816-NIGHTLY-tenderloin.zip
980139d6b46b9cbba4db0e07ad17ba5d moboot_0.3.5.zip
1308300f38685d44afde730efd9132cc update-cwm_tenderloin-1012.zip
So I copied all the files from c:\downloads\touchpad to \cminstall on my touchad.
Rebooted into recovery, and did the:
C:\DOWNLOADS\TOUCHPAD>"C:\Program Files\Palm, Inc\novacom.exe" boot mem:// < ACMEInstaller2
The touchpad did some magic, including some linux thing/scorlling, rebooted, but now I'm back at webos.
So, did i forgot something? Should I use ACMEInstaller2 or ACMEInstaller3 (or even ACMEInstaller?).
Thanks.
EDIT: OK. I just realized that the Boot menu gives you some seconds and then it boots to WebOS.

Your third file should should be renamed so that it reads ,
update-cm-9-20120816-NIGHTLY-tenderloin
And yes use ACMEIinstaller2
I hope this helps
Boot into CWM and then flash the 8-16Nightly file that you have then the latest Gapps 4-29

Yeah, I re-read one of the guides, and it mentioned that, so i'm trying again.
Thanks.

How did you get on?
i tried acmeinstaller3 and i was complaining of inode errors ? has anyone else experienced this ? is there anyway of checking the filesystems again for errors, as there was lots of inode fixes maybe it was due to partitian resizing ?
i personally used this link:
http://liliputing.com/2012/01/how-to-install-android-4-0-on-the-hp-touchpad-cyanogenmod-9-alpha.html
The only thing i did different was that i used the latest version of the files.

I did exactly the same.
Just wanted to say this really helped me. And for any of the noobies, if you take the OP's MD5 codes, and plug them into Goo, you will find the files very very quick. And in order for me to download the ACMEInstaller2, I had to change it to a .zip file, and download as such, and then when plugging in the CMD code, just add .zip to the file name, and you're golden. Hope this helps!

If you are partitioned once using ACMEinstaller2, you should ACMEuninstall to remove/repair partitions. After that you can use ACMEinstaller3. Just make sure your CM9 and Gapps file names begin "update-" as you copy them into the cminstall folder.
ACMEInstaller3 is for CM10, not CM9.
not just for CM10

As posted by Developer green, it was designed for CM10 in mind to provide a little more partition room to accomodate CM10. It can be used with no ill effects* with CM9 to get that space from the beginning flash of CM9 and then you would be CM10 ready. You are able to use the benefit of a little more system partition than what is deployed with ACMEinstaller2.
I've used ACMEinstaller3 with great success on 6 of the 15 touchpads I help support with CM9. I use ACMEinstall3 by routine now as there is no need to have either ACMEinstall or ACMEinstall2.
* - the use of a few hundred MB from the SDcard to System partition is a small sacrafice of storage space on SDcard with the potential gain of CM10 ready and more headroom for the system, even on CM9.
I picked up a 32gb TP a few weeks ago.and have just been sitting on it. I was hoping to see some updated guides to simplify my learning curve to get android on it (i know I just need to read and learn). Can't believe I'm so hesitant to do anything with it, but the op's experience seems inline with my expectations of the device at the moment.

I used the same lilliputing site linked above. Like another post said, just plug the md5sum into goo.im and you should find the files.
First time install instructions for CyanogenMod

The "maintained" instructions list in that post point here: http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/HP_Touchpad:_Full_Update_Guide
^^^ There are a couple small inconsistencies here. I'm not sure how to submit to have them corrected.
Overall, this is designated as the official source.
In the top section they list ACMEinstaller3 (although the lower section they list ACMEinstaller)

Thanks to everyone who posted. I plugged the MD5's in as suggested, found the liliputin, CM, and jcsullins goo.im sites for files and read/the liliputin guide. I'm sure I will have additional questions for when I get back up later tonight to attempt this, but it looks like I have all the needed files ready plus some extras (screenshot).
For now:
- Do you have to "dual boot" android & webos, vs wiping out webos and keeping only android?
- How much space is WebOS taking up on the "dual boot" setup, ie does it have it's own partitions etc separate from android?
- Can you just turn the device on and have it automatically boot android (WAF = Wife Acceptance Factor)
- When installing roms I have been used to formatting /system, /data, & /cache first. Does AcmeInstaller do this for you. If so, you can just do new rom flashes & backups "manually" through CWM or TWRP right? I keep seeing mention of only wiping "cache" beforehand?
- How would I restore the tablet to stock WebOS, AcmeUninstaller? (I plan on going with AcmeInstaller 3)
- My impression is that the latest CM9 Nightlies are the most stable/functional ICS versions currently available for the TP as a daily driver. Is this correct?

Re Files: You have more than enough.
move a copy of ACMEinstall3 to your PCs Palm, Inc folder
rename gapps-20120429-signed.zip to update-gapps-20120429-signed.zip
rename cm9 ROM to update-cm-9-20121007-NIGHTLY-tenderloin.zip
From webOS / USB mode connect your PC and copy your cminstall folder to the tablet. (cminstall folder should have 4 .zip files: CWM, MoBoot, gapps, cm9) when you reboot to Novacom Bootie, you are ready for your ACMEinstall invocation command. Takes about 15 min. to flash.
CyanogenMod is dependent on webOS to be present. You cannot remove webOS. If you are that concerned for space, webDoctor to ver 3.0.0 and never OTA update. That version has the smallest footprint, you might get a couple hundred MB saved, but IMHO, not worth the effort.
The default boot order selects Android after 5 seconds. You can edit this or use a preware webOS app: CyBoot to edit the default and how long to wait in MoBoot before default is loaded.
ACMEinstaller3 handles the partition chores for you. You don't have any CM or other ROM loaded? If you did, you should ACMEuninstall first or to return it to stock webOS. wiping cache is a selection that is done from CWM or TWRP on re-flash of the ROM. You could select ClockworkMod on first boot to do this step, but I have never bothered on an initial load.
I'm currently on cm-9-20121007, the latest nightly.
Good Luck

The Touchpad's hard drive will show as 27.1gig before installing Android and 25.4 after if you use ACMEInstaller 3 or 25.5 with ACMEInstaller 2 .
You should not attempt to remove webos.
After installation it will automatically boot into Cyanogen/Android with a 5 second delay. To give you the option to change . Both the boot preference and time out can be changed either by installing an app called Cyboot through preware on webos , or by editing the boot folder when running Android.
Use gapps 20120429 and if using ACMEInstaller 3 rename so that it begins update- .
Yes use the latest nightly and rename so it begins update-
Acmeuninstaller will return the tablet back to webos and running Android uninstall from preware will remove moboot .
Install it have fun then you will probably have a few more questions.
Good luck
Thanks guys. I'm up and running on latest CM9.. AWESOME!
Still would like to see someone with a guide here that has up to date links. But the Lilliputin site guide was good minus links.
