Installing CM9 on fresh HP Touchpad??? - TouchPad General

What is the easiest way to install CM9 on a fresh HP Touchpad? I have searched and found tutorials, but they are mostly outdated and for CM7.
I played around a little with webOS and do not like it. I did a master secure erase to put it back to stock. I want to install CM9. Can someone lead me to an updated thread? Once I get CWM on there, I am good to go.
Been flashing my Behold 2, Vibrant, and Galaxy II for a while. Getting CWM on here seems like a chore...
Thanks.

You're first install still needs to be with acme installer, so go to the official cm9 thread and follow those directions. After the initial install you can use Clockwork

I just installed CM9 on my touchpad this weeked. I followed "Idiot's Guide to installing CM7 Android on the HP Touchpad" on youtube. Just follow it and use updated files, where he used CM7 use CM9 of your choosing. Everything is running and been playing with it all weekend.

Thanks you two. I just got CM9 up and running. I read that there is a market issue and two zips were created to fix resolution problems and enable the market. What did you guys do?

I did not use either resolution zips. Its a preference thing....if u think he icons look like they were made for a senior citizen u might want to look into the 160 zip....I am satisfied with the stock resolution.....only weird thing is in portrait you get an extra row of app icons....again I just set the default to not auto rotate in display settings and wallah ....again tis a preference as is most of the android experience. Play around with things and if u feel so inclined to experiment one suggestion would be to backup your current from via clockwork mod recovery.

[Q] i would like miui and need direction

im sorry i have to ask.. i have looked for a couple of hours now and cant find any solid info on installing miui..
im a veteran at flashing tw roms and themes.. but with the lack of knowledge on aosp im a little weary on going forward..
im unsure if any kernel comes with the miui rom.?. what cwm i need.?. or if i need to odin it.?. what modem will i need? .. do i need to start from stock eclair? do i need to reboot before flashing a kernel after flashing rom? do i need to reboot before flashing gapps? do i need gapps?
my head is spinning.. if someone would give me detailed direction i would do my best to compile it and help others.
thanks
What I did as a noob which was easy even for me was EF guide : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1035420
Then : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1155477
well actually I just went from EF to CM7 that new guide seems simple enough though.
and the CM7 post he refers to for the fixed cmw is this : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1116424
Then just flash Miui from CM7 or straight to Miui from EF but it sometimes gives you issues. My personal experience has been to flash Jt's CM7 then to Miui
*Edit* Also if you need any more help just PM me I have an hour to kill or so.

had some trouble with some hash checks.. little behind
flashing new cwm then cm7 then miui... miui is all i need to flash? or do i have todo gapps
?
what color should the fixed recovery be? mine is still red.
sorry my bro from portland called. Red is fine you dont need gaps as you will be flashing it away anyways. if you're still having issues with hash checks download an earlier build of CM7 to install that first then Miui.
Edit Miui comes with Gapps, jt's CM7 doesn't but when you flash to Miui you will wipe gapps anyways is what I mean.
edit 2 Also depending on build you won't be able to 3 button to red cmw from boot so use terminal emulator or rom manager to reboot into recovery.
wow.. cm7 is so much better than what im used to i might just stay.. lmao..
im not sure what i want now.. cm7 or miui.. i need a nice gold coin to flip

how come i cant find my app drawer icon on miui... i think im screwed =(
lmao the default Miui launcher has NO drawer but you can make folders and organize stuff if you want a drawer download my personal favorie launcher that I use Launcher Pro from the market
actually I use the plus version since I paid for it, well wourth it to support the dev.
I'm off to work but I'll check the forum with tapatalk when I get a chance incase you need anything else. Later

[Q] Want to install ICS but first want to return to stock

Hi,
I currently have moboot 3.0.2 and xron 2.91 but wish to return to stock webos then install latest moboot or the touch based boot menu then install ICS
I have a few queries first...
How would I achieve this? WebOS Doctor?
Is there an app like Titanium for WebOS? So I can back up some webos based apps?
I would like to shrink the WebOS partition as it's hardly being used these days, Is this possible?
Which boot menu do you suggest? I have the splash screen error at present due to using the old moboot, I understand this issue is fixed in the latest version, Does the touchbased boot menu include this fix?
When running WebOS doctor which firmware of webos does it install? I have a few issue's with preware coming up with errors when opening at present.
Can I still install preware on the latest webos version?
What are the main issues when using ICS? Is the WiFi still flakey? Any other major bugs?
Thanks in advance
Ist there a reason to go back to stock webos?
I would propose to install moboot 3.0.5 and one of the ICS ROMs. That's it!

Have issues with preware, Lots of scripting errors upon start up.
Also would like to shrink the webOS partition to give more space for Android.
Do you have ICS on your TP? How does it compare to xron's gingerbread builds in terms of bugs?
Use ACMEuninstall to remove Android completely. Then use webos doctor to clean ur webos. Many guides for how to use those tools in dev section.
The bugs in ICS depends on whose ROM u r using. But definitely buggier then xron/cm7.

Which ICS ROM do you recommend? For the best user experience?
first rule of XDA, never compare any roms..they all are good for different purposes...right now all ICS roms are almost same...from the Team Xron version is not officially released..so dont expect any support there...your other option is CM9...which is officially released and u might answers for them in the forums....

Looks like I'm the first too try.Impostor my findings if any.thank-you.
Is there a way to run this from the SDcard? Thanks.
I'm gonna try this, although it may take a lil while due to the fact that I'm in school right now. Screw studies there's a new NT ROM out!

Well, I'm back on cm9 because about every 3 minutes or so it would kick my out to the boot sequence. I kept trying to download the LCD density modder to fix the screen density from hdpi to mdpi, but I couldn't due to the frequent crashes. I dunno if this is just me and I botched the install somehow or if this ROM is still extremely alpha. If these are routine problems id recommed putting "WIP" or "devs only" in the thread name. Just IMO. Hope this is just a problem with my install.

Make sure you do a factory reset after flashing the rom. And don't restore data from cm9 using TitaniumBackup.

The rom should work but the kernel is for 16g only. You need to mod it (change the irboot) for it to work on 8g.

Helpp miui photon!!!

Hey I installed the miui photon 4g and I'm having some issues. Well first I wanna say that I love this rom. But back to my problem, I've been noticing that my web browser, youtube, facebook, instagram would close on their own. I've also flashed the beats mod on my phone but when it finish and reboots everytime i open music i get music player has stopped and i start hearing like a beeping noise so i'd flash back to before i had it installed, i've tried different versions and i get the same results. Then today the phone just died and when i stuck it back on the charger it said i had no battery left when just a min ago i had 80% left. And another quick questions I want to know about the media gui add ons and media add on do they already come with the rom? Because it says page 9 is where i can find them but searched from page 1 to page 20 and could not find anything but the beats mod any help or anything I know i should just use the search but i just don't know where to begin to search =[ any help please?
P.S.

I'm gonna try to install the latest version and see what happens but if anyone can help me i will greatly appreciate it

Flash newest version 2.6.29. Do the Aroma version (it does the wipe IN the rom). Then download and flash the Options Chooser. That has all the mods and tweaks you're looking for (SRS/Beats, etc). Those should work with this rom quite well.
PM me if you hae any issues. I don't get on Q&A very often, but I answer nearly every PM I get personally and I usually will get back to you very quickly.

No problem. I really should come on this portion more often to check out if people have any issues with my rom. As always, have a question, let me know...I am not someone who gets upset at receiving PMs
From what I've read and my experience, the Aroma version is for upgrading, the zip version is for fresh install. Important to do a full wipe including deleting the .android_secure folder on the SD card. When I've dome fresh MIUI installs using Aroma I've had updater issues and random reboots.

If anyone cares to help me out it would be appreciated, I just need the help because all the 'files' are all over and I wann make sure i get the right files! thanks in advance
Welcome! I used this: http://liliputing.com/2012/01/how-...-on-the-hp-touchpad-cyanogenmod-9-alpha.html . You don't need to install CM7 first. I would recommend the latest CM9 nightly, since I found that the last alpha's wifi can be temperamental. The nightlies are pretty stable. OaT also has a good stable one.
EDIT: corrected link.

Thanks bro I really appreciated it, just one quick question ... this is a brand new touchpad... with 3.0.5 on it... If i wanted to install any ICS rom on it, are those all the files I need, from what I understand I need to get the novacom drivers, install novacomdrivers, place the acme installer in there, then mount my TP, create the cminstall folder, then copy the CWM file, the rom, and the moboot in this folder. and then follow instructions? Is that okay? is that it? the thing that is bugging me the most is that I'm not sure if I have to install the acmeinstaller1 first and then ugprade to acmeinstaller2, and if the rom I put there first has to be a CM rom or can it be any other
That sounds good. Acmeinstaller2 is fine, I believe. Any ROM is okay, it doesn't have to be CM.
Acmeinstaller (including V2) assumes the ROM and CWM zip filenames start with 'update-' and you may need to rename the files in the cminstall folder otherwise the Installer won't process them.

Correct, just AcmeInstaller2
To install CM9 on a new touchpad you'll need acmeinstaller2, Moboot for choosing the OS you want to boot when powering on your tablet, gapps for Google apps, and clockworkmod for backups and flashing things in the future.
I recommend following reverend Kyle's videos on YouTube. Look for his CM9 alpha 2 videos where he installs with acmeinstaller2
I'm running the latest nightly and it works great (smoother than alpha 2 and vibration/microphone works!)
