First off I want to say that MacRom is the most stable/speedy ROM I've used so far (thanks for all the hard work!).
Just a couple issues with the new MR8 update:
1. The new market seems to be really slow? (maybe just due to the older Eris' lack of speed?)
2. I don't know if this is a market related issue or not, but I can't install a couple apps I use. The market doesn't give me an option to even download them: Words with Friends and Google Books. I'm not sure if it's related to the new market or if the apps are somehow incompatible with the new MR8 update?
3. Is there a way to get rid of the blue line that appears whenever you tap the screen to make a selection? I've been searching but have yet to find a way. The line just kind of annoys me, personally.
Any help would be greatly appreciated as I love this ROM! Thanks!
Dude the same thing has been happening the past two days for me on Deadly and Spicy ROMs. For instance I had not been able to get Titanium but I got my Pro key fine, and same thing with XDA, regular worked fine but couldn't download premium. I took a nap earlier and woke up and had premium I'm about to check Titanium so it may be a Market issue.

Good to know. Hopefully it's just a market issue then, but still no luck for me...
same here
i too am wondering why i can't download certain apps from the market, like facebook for example. it's not already installed and i get no download button for that app in the market...but i get download button for most other apps.
also wondering about how to get rid of blue bar on menu selections.

I've seen the same issues with MR8 and MR9... I'm looking into the issue, but haven't found a work-around yet. I'm thinking it may possibly be a result of the build revision bump to 2.3.5 that might be throwing the market off (showing the phone as incompatible with your device), but it's only a theory, no fact to that yet...
Glad to know I'm not the only one as I have been having trouble downloading my premium apps too. I flashed 2.3.5 yesterday. I'm a noob so I was wondering what I Fk'd up... LOL!

Found one problem other than my paid apps nothing else shows up under my apps. Anyone else having this problem? I cleared all market data and downloaded a couple of apps since which usually refreshes it but not this time.

For me, just some of my apps show up under "My Apps". Most don't, and it changes at times. Like in the morning I may see 11 and in the night I may see 24 (although there are way more than that downloaded and installed).
Even after 2 days I only see my paid apps and I have close to 140 on my phone and at least 5 of them I installed after the market update and they aren't showing either.
Edit
When I search and find any of the apps that I have installed they show as being installed on the market link but just not showing up under my apps

So basically stick with the black market until the bugs are squashed?

For those of you experiencing bugs, check to see which version of the Market you have. The first leaked version was 3.0.26 but there is a slightly newer version 3.0.27 available here:
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/7620746/com.android.vending-27.apk
I don't know if they fixed anything significant between these versions but it's worth trying it.

Thanks for the post just checked and I have 3.0.27 installed already so for me something else is wrong.

Market 3.0.27 is absolutely horrid. I switched back to the previous version but today I was forced to update. No way to revert.
1) It's ugly.
2) Reviews of apps are displaying out of order. We have reviews from 2010 being displayed at the top of the list, and recent reviews of the latest version nowhere to be found. There is no way to see how people are responding to a newly released version; meanwhile at the top of the list we have these outdated reviews complaining about issues that were already resolved.
3) Whenever updates for apps are released, the update notification displays, but there is no way of actually downloading the new version. Only "Open" and "Uninstall" are shown; it usually isn't until several hours later when we are actually given the option to download the new app.

That's the version I have and it still has the problem of not showing all of "My Apps". The only thing it fixed was the displaying of unsupported apps (e.g Flash Player 10.3, etc...).

Hi,
I have posted this question on Precentral & Google but I'm not having any luck. I also just posted this ? on WebOS so hopefully XDA & WebOS will be able to help.
In trying to load/open Preware on the TP, it gives me an error. Below is a screenshot of the error & a screenshot of the Manage Feeds. I didn't try to add any feeds.
I did install Preware before the OTA upgrade. Not sure if that has anything to do with it. I have tried removing Preware & reinstall and gets the same persistent error message.
I haven't tried to customize any feeds yet.
What am I doing wrong? What do I need to do to correct this?
Can any experts tell me what I could have done to prevent this error? My brother has gotten a HP TP also so if I was to do this again, I'll like to know what I have done wrong to prevent it from happening again.
Thanks for everyone's help.
Cheers,
Rena
what id say is probably the best option is to remove preware and reinstall, it seems one of the links to the feeds may be incorrect, a reinstall should correct this, if not then you may need to individually turn off each feed one by one and then update feeds untill the problem stops, by doing that you will then find which feed it is that has the problem and hopefully be able to correct/replace it hope this helps
Thank You!

Hiya!
Thank you for your recommendation. Before I tried your route, I went ahead this afternoon (was sick of look at it for the whole weekend wondering what I did wrong) to try one more time on its own & Preware loaded.
Is this a server issue? (Or maybe - not Server but something similar?) Where it's so busy and it just messes up. (I'm not familiar with Preware/WebOS at all - total Noob!). I did not change anything on the FEEDS. All I did was try to load Preware & it actually worked!
Anyway, I got it to load - install all the recommendations and the sucker is fast!
Thank you for your help!
Cheers,
Rena
[Q] Preware Issues with Touchpad 32 GB
Hey everyone i would like to start off with a thanks.
I have overclocked 4 16gb touchpads but on my fifth it was a 32GB and im having issues with the feeds in preware . with just the standard feeds im getting an error.
PREWARE
Unable to run command: /usr/bin/Ipkg -o/media/crytofs/apps update 2>&1
then it shows all the feeds with errors.
any help would be appreciated Thanks

I don't what the resolution is, hoping someone who does will respond. I'm getting the same error on my 32GB.
Do your feed URLs have a / at the end of them? I ran into this problem, and removing the / fixed it.
im just using the default feeds on this so far all 16 gb are working like butter
Sorry, missed that part about the default preware.
Have you tried the standard error-fixing steps yet?
Reboot Touchpad
Reinstall Preware
It looks to me like one of the feeds may be down, or installed wrong. You could also try disabling them one-by-one until you find the culprit.
Another user reported the same error, and she waited a few hours, and it seemed to fix itself.
all general steps have been taken
reboots ... re install still the same
all feeds work on the 4 16gb
just a side note if anyone doesnt know you can get a few games at http://www.webosbuzz.com just use webos quick install, to install them. hit the plus icon add the downloaded file (.ipk ) and install. [ note need for speed takes a while to install ] ( 7 to 20 minutes depending on the pad )

Had a similar issue, did it on first install, and every subsequent reboot... a quick run of WebOS Dr, unit was restored, and everything worked like a dream...
I have the 32GB and to give you an idea, I had to webos doctor the whole thing to finally get it to accept the preware.is.awesome feed... (yes, I followed instructions to the T, 6 times, Kept failing the updates. Once the doctor was done, I set up the palm acc, loaded preware, Added the feeds, (reboot each time, Do not allow preware to update before reboot) and THEN it worked... (well worth the hassle too!)
F4 On OnDemand, 1.7+ Stable
thanks everyone my buddy with the 32 gb will be out of town for a few days. i got everything working but the over clock. ill have to give these fixes a try in a few days.
Cool, keep us posted!
So -- does the 32GB require different steps than the 16GB, or is this "non-typical"? I have a 32GB one and was thinking about trying to install Preware, etc.
Is this an issue with the 32GB in general?
I didn't have to do anything special on my 32GB... You guys made sure not to enter a password when you enabled dev mode, right?

I have a 32 and followed the same copy pasted directions that are everywhere and it all worked without a single problem. No webos doc used. Running uberkernel at 1.5 and everything is quick and smooth. I don't think it's a general issue.
I had the same issue, but I tried again last night, deleted all the offending listings, re-added the preware.is.awsome and it worked.... I had too done it multiple times with the same errors.... no clue what I did diffrently, maybe it was the deleting of the "bad" listings?
Phew, thanks for the feedback everyone. Hopefully I can get around to doing this soon!
Hi guys,
I have done all this thankfully but am wondering if I now apply the latest HP update will it undo everything again?

Sunspider and Browsermark primarily. Also would be amazingly interested in seeing page load tests of a WebOS Touchpad next to a CM7 touchpad, if anyone has two of these things.

For what it's worth, touchstone won't charge
it puts it in dock mode, it trips the charger icon so you think it's charging, but it won't actually charge
kinda stinks, that's a major major bug to me
but I guess that's why it's called an Alpha build

Loving it. Hadn't touched my TP for months and had no hesitation to flash the alpha. I'd say for an alpha it is way ahead of most alphas. I'd almost call it a beta, but I guess some of the bugs, (like the wifi losing connection once in a while) are too big to be beta.

I read you can just grab maps and google apps that wont show up in the market from your phone and move them over. Just grab the .apks off the internet if you want. I just transferred over my TI Backup file and am reinstalling all the apps I want now, g maps is working for me.
I installed last night and so far it's great. The performance is great, no lags, all the apps I need\want have installed without any problems. The only issue I've had so is the battery drain makes it unresponsive so I had to power + home until it rebooted.
I got it loaded but the moboot option and recovery options did not work...so I could not boot back into webos. So I just flashed it back to Webos with the doctor. I think I will give it a little more time for the bugs to get hammered out.
Absolutely LOVE it. Super slick and fantastic for an Alpha build. 90% of the things i want for the tablet install and work without a hitch.
One nice surprise, my WebOS portion of my Touchpad was NOT wiped out in the installation. I booted into WebOS earlier, and to my surprise, everything was intact and exactly how it was left pre-CM7 install. I've been playing with it all day, and i must say, battery life has been great thus far. Tablet is showing almost 7hrs of use (display ON for about 5hrs) and still has 40% battery left!
love it. But it wiped everyhig on my webos. So now I have to figure out how to put my pictures and videos back
Overall I haven't had any problems. Can't wait for future updates
No issues except for wifi issues.
I'm running CM7, and I think it runs really well for an alpha release. I've had minimal problems and most problems are easily corrected and there are some workarounds appearing already.
Flashed CM7 yesterday. Seems more like a Beta than a Alpha build. I tried most of my apps and they work without issue. CM7 runs very well with minor hiccups.Some things I did after seeing others have issues
1-Wifi sleep policy set to never
2-Use Setcpu to OC to 1.5 and undervolt at 384 and I have no issues with the device waking up
3-Use the app "Myappsharer" to send the APKs from my Thunderbolt to the tablet and they install with no issues
4-Before I flashed CM7 I made a copy of everything on the TouchPad to my laptop in case it got wiped out.
This was my first time trying WebOs the past few weeks and I kind of liked it. I do not think I will be going back to it though. I definitely prefer the customization of Android.
I am really liking CM7. I installed it this evening and it seems to be chugging along. I was able to install Order & Chaos on it, but I had to change the build.prop in order to get it to run. It played better than I would have thought, for an Alpha version of the OS. I am going to try and overclock it to see if that smooths out the game.

Didnt OC mine, but i UVed it to 384 to see if that prevents the device wakeup problem. So far so good i believe
I love it, my only thing is dead screen on wake up. It wakes up fine but it's unresponsive. I have to click the power button three times to get it to work.

Facebook requires a GPS. Install FAKE GPS and set a location. This will solve the problem with Facebook FC's.
This worked on my Sensation and on my T-Mobile GSII (Files were originally taken from Sensation forum, I just tried them on other devices). I don't have my Tab with me to try it right now, but figured someone could give it a shot.
Copy files to Titanium Backup folder and restore APP+DATA.
I know it won't work with AdFree or similar without modifying host files.
I tried, I can get it to log in and browse the available videos, however I get stuck on "buffering..." black screen or endless buffer loop where it starts to play ad but then just restarts and says buffering again
I also get the app loaded but get stuck on buffering
Do you have ad free or an ad free rom? That is what causes that problem on the sensation.

Galaxy Task 10.0 does have an ad blocker cooked in, it's a modified hosts file.
