I've been searching all over the place for an answer to this so hopefully you guys will be able to help me out.
I purchased a used 32gb touchpad that came with cm7 dualbooted on it, but when I tried booting into webos the hp logo just stayed on screen for about 15 minutes before I hard reset it. Then I downloaded CM9 alpha 2 and installed it on my sd card then went into CWM and installed zip from sd card. Once i booted CM9 everything worked fine, but on the bottom right it says preparing SD card and just stays there. I can't access anything that's on my sd card through cm9! Any help would be appreciated!
And 1 more thing I can't get into my developer settings tab in the settings menu!
Did you use the ACMEinstaller2? or which method to install?
i used clockwork because it already had cm7 on it and I didn't need any of the data on it
Are you able to ask the person you bought the touchpad from how he installed Android on it? CyanogenMod 7 does not require AcmeInstaller2 but CyanogenMod 9 does, at least from what I've read. Installing CM9 without AcmeInstaller2 could be causing your issue.
Personally what I would do is get a hold of AcmeUninstaller and remove the Android installation and then you can use WebOS Doctor to re-install WebOS on your Touchpad. After that follow the rooting guide to re-install CyanogenMod 9.

There's a really good guide on how to get everything reset for you found in THIS THREAD. It guides you the whole way, and has worked for about 99% of the people who've used it.

Did exactly this and it worked like a charm! I appreciate your help!
I've got the same issue... would REALLY like to avoid a full wipe of WebOS...
I'd had CM7... I used ACMEInstaller3 (b/c the links to AI2 were all broken) to install Oats.. from there I went to AOKP M6, and now to the 0903 CM9 nightly.
I think this was broken all the way back to Oats.. (I didn't keep it long enough to worry about it).

I'm considering putting the CM9 ICS Android port on my WebOS HP Touchpad. However, before I do this, I'm trying to find out how can I put the touchpad in its original, factory installed condition if the Android port doesn't work out properly.
Thanks.

You will have a dual boot option to either of the original os's.
Read the forum before you post , most of the time, the answer is there.
It's actually a little complicated. The gist of it is that you may have to use webOS doctor in order to eliminate the Android installs.

WebosDoctor will NOT remove any Android installs.
http://rootzwiki.com/topic/8732-vid...anogenmod-android-alpha-from-the-hp-touchpad/
or just google it
There's actually a good thread on that here in the General Forum, on Page 2.
Or, I'll link it to you here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1426244
Basically, it walks you through removing the CM partitions, resetting the default ones to 3.0.0, then you can upgrade to 3.0.4 (or 3.0.5 like I did), and reinstall Android that way.
Hope it helps you, mate !
(First I wanted to say, you guys all rock. I owned a Nook Color for awhile and had cyanogen mod on it and it was absolutely awesome. I do understand the basics of how to install it. I ended up selling my old nook (was low on money) and recently began to miss it, so I picked up a 8gig Nook Tablet running 1.4.2. I tried to figure this out on my own, but after 8 hours of reading threads and not having any luck I decided to finally post a thread asking for help )
Problem:
I have an 8gig Nook Tablet (brand new from the store) running 1.4.2. I would like to install Cyanogen Mod 7 on it since the stock O.S. is ... well... terrible.
To start, can it currently be done with that tablet at all? Should I even attempt to do it or wait until everything is more stable?
I did manage to get it rooted using this guys method. Next, I burnt a 4gig SD card based off Indirect's thread so I could boot CWM from it. I was intending on installing CM7 from this thread. I re-sized the 70 mb partition thing using EASEUS Partition Master, stuck the CM7 files in the directory and set about attempting to set it up
My problem is I can't even get CWM to boot. I power it on, it goes straight to the stock O.S. I hold the N button with power button, and it gives me a prompt for a factory restore (which is nice, better than the 'interrupt boot 8 times b.s.). I plug the cable in, unresponsive to anything until I take the card out
Am I doing something incorrectly, or maybe using the wrong files? If I can't install CM7 for some reason, is there any way to make the stock O.S. function better? I can't view apps without going to search->play store-> finding them, which is a pain.
Thanks so much for any help!
Hey, Just got a 32gb touchpad
I want to run Android 4 on it, but i see multiple roms there. Was wondering which one has the least bugs. Im hoping for a fully functional one, but not sure whats there. CM9 seems fairly broken.
Im looking for a fully functional non WEbOS if someone could poitn me to one
Thanks!
I'm not one to complain, but there have been quite a few of these threads started recently... such as:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1618380
As far as CM9 goes, I have been running the Alpha 2 version and have absolutely no problems with it besides the camera and mic not working, and the sound issue while the screen is off. ClassicNerd and AOKP are some good alternatives and they have a lot of support, but there are more. Best place to start is the great sticky post by MindSplit : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1552196
If you see CM9 as "broken" then dont bother with Android on your TouchPad. All CM9 ROMs are about the same as far as how stable they are. And all CM9 ROMs just about have the same issues. They are all built from the same source.
It multiboots tho, so i assume i can install as many things as i want..

You can only install one version of android.
I currently use ClassicNerd Rom and love it. Yes, like stated earlier they all are still a little buggy. However it is very cool to multi-boot(moboot) between webOS and android . On the Android side I'm able to download apps from the market and play a load of games. PM me and I will point you to the instructions I used.
Im running CM9 now! THis thing FLIES, only bug i really care about is the audio distortion when the screen is off one, but nbd really!
Question: If i want to Update CM, i just place it on the SD and install via CWM right. How does Moboot know its CM? If i installed another rom via CWM would Moboot properly boot into it?
AND
Is the storage shared? As in, if i boot into WebOS, will it see all the files on the 32gig storage that android sees?

Yes. just place it on your sd card and install in clockwork. It's wise to wipe cache and dalvik before you flash. There may be times when you get more than one android version show up on moboot if it is two completely different ROMs but you just need to delete the other listing. there are tutorials on how to do that. and your sd card is shared. it's structured a little differently in each OS but it all shares the same storage.
Thanks a bunch guys!
One last question
I have a bunch of apps backed up via Titanium off my GSII, can those be restored safely onto the touchpad(non system apps ofc)
Now that CM10 has been released for the NT I have started up a proper support thread. Pleas keep it as back reports and help.

I would like to run CM10 from an sdcatd. I get lost following the directions iamafanof has on his blog. Does anyone have something clearer?
I just want to boot 10 from sd ,like CM 7 was.
Thanks.
Bill
Just use the same directions used in succulent's (iamafanof) directions on how to boot CM7/CM9 from sdcard. The only thing different is to use his CM10 boot from sdcard zip.
CM10 Install Assist?
UPDATED NEAR END - I am with you miniblue... I have been running an SD version of CM7 for sometime now and absolutely love it. However, would like to upgrade to CM10 and tried using imafanof's SD boot install but somehow I messed it up so now I am running some sort of hybrid of the Nook (still has original apps installed) and CM10. So now I have the nice polished look with none of the functionality.
If someone can help me with some tips as to how to flash and start fresh with a fresh install of CM10 I would be very grateful. Now I have a nook that boots up with cyanboot bootloader but loads a hybrid of CM10 and the nook truncated Android. Now I have the Nook purchased apps (don't care to have) and no ability to do much with the Jelly Bean other than having the nice polished look.
According to the Nook, I am running Android version 4.1.1, Kernel version 3.0.31+ ([email protected] #1), Cyanmod version 10-20120903-UNOFFICIAL-acclaim. Also - My Nook seems to now think it is a 8GB nook instead of the 16GB Nook that it really is. I have the new look but all the B&N apps and no functionality beyond that to speak of. Cannot change themes, etc.
So, I made a good bootable SD card to load emmc CM10. Installed it but still have the weird hybrid version of the Nook software on it. Do I need to format the emmc or something first? I followed the instructions as indicated by chrmhoffmann on this page: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1773362 - where it says this method will overwrite everything. What am I missing?
update: so I was able to use a CWM bootable SD and formatted emmc, user data, etc. Looks like CM10 is running exclusively. Trouble is, as can be expected, it is unstable and so it goes to black screen a lot, particularly when surfing/on wifi. May have to try CM9 for awhile until 10 gets to a bit better performance.

Not sure what to tell you but I used the SGT7 Jelly Bean ROM and I am not having that issue and the ROM is working great for me on emmc. Still getting some black outs on occasion but not too big of a deal.

Yes. It works fine. As everyone is aware, there are some Black Screen Of Death (BSOD) issues and a few random reboots but not to the point of a MAJOR issue.
I have posted my simple guide to installing the SGT7 (Meghd00t) ROM on my website here: http://raywaldo.com/2012/09/root-for-nook-tablet-1-4-3/ - includes video and my process worked to root & install on a stock Nook Tablet (8GB) running B&N v.1.4.3.

This is awesome. I'd been thinking about doing a full restore - re-root - install w/ CM10, and it's nice to have a method to follow.
BTW - Ray, (or anybody) have you heard of anyone having problems getting their PCs to recognize their Nooks as USB drives on CM10? It's seems like after a time my PC first stops recognizing the external SD (shows a mounted drive icon but shows no information or says 'please insert an SD card") . . . then eventually stops recognizing the internal "My Nook" drive as well. At one point I did a complete USB driver uninstall-reinstall using USBdeview, and it fixed the problem but only for a day. And it did not work the second time.
I know this is NT related because it happens on any PC I use. The problem is not present when using CM7.
Ideas?
I love sgt7! Can you thank too many times on xda?
I am new here though and I have a few questions. Has anyone been able to reproduce the sleep of death bug ? Or is it completely random? I have done some minimal Linux and android development and I would love to help with improving jelly on nt. I actually have two nook tab 16s. One is running sgt7 9.13 the other 9.14. I know I haven't searched as much as I could have just yet but I wanted to see if anyone would recommend some things I could do for the devs. Can we get a trace from adb when the bug occurs or do we lose the connection immediately before? Do we know where in the libs or kernel the bug may be lurking?

Not sure which CM10 you have. I am running the SGT7/Meghd00t and it works fine for me.
One thing that you probably already know.. When you connect, Windows will beep but may not display the file manager window.
If you have USB Debugging enabled, then you have to switch to mass storage mode. In the notifications area, you will have a little USB symbol. Click on it and follow the prompts to enable the Mass Storage mode.
Another note. I have Win7/64bit so it may be relative to that. But sometimes SDCard readers, etc have trouble with my USB 3.0 ports and I have to use them on the 2.0 port instead.
Thanks Ray!
Ray, just wanted to give you props for your tutorials. They are very thorough and explain things in great detail for those who are new but want to benefit from the greatness of ROMs and rooting.

Is there a specific process I need to follow to achieve this? Thanks.

Provide more details. Does it go through the install process? Any errors? Does the cm7 install appear to complete too quickly? Are you using twrp or cwm? Have you wiped cache and data then tried installing 7?

Sorry for the lack of details. I'm using TWRP, trying to install the CM7 beta. I have wiped cache and data before flashing, as I always do. But yeah, the install seemed to complete suspiciously quickly, like 5 or 10 seconds. It does say that it completes successfully, however, with no errors.

I've had similar issues and I found in another thread that powering off and powering on the device enables Deep Sleep which helps immensely with battery life. The key seems to be remembering to do this after a SOD.
You have to do a complete power off/power on cycle, rebooting doesn't seem to work.

The official guide for installing cm12?
Hi everyone,
I have no idea if this is the place to post my question and I am really sorry if this is not.
Umm..
I would very much like to install CM 12 on the Nook Tablet from download.cyanogenmod.org/?device=acclaim&type= but I have no clue how to do it.
I tried the link wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Install_CM_for_acclaim which seemed a good place to start for a newbie until I saw this sentence "Bear in mind that the boot.img included with the Clockwork Mod Recovery does not support CM > 10.1.3" and belatedly realised that it wouldn't work for CM 12. *facepalm*
Now I am back to square 1 of ignoranceville and it's pretty lonely over here.
If someone would be gracious enough to help me out, it would be hugely, ginormously appreciated with ALL of my heart! :fingers-crossed:
If you installed cm10 and you have custom recovery just boot to fastboot (hold the 'n' button during start) and install the recovery from cm12 thread. After this install cm12.
It's worth noting that you have to convert userdata partition to f2fs for optimal performance. There are two tutorials how to do it in the cm12 thread.
As I understand it.
It is indeed lonely out there in the stix, fellow noob. When I first came to XDA looking for rooting instructions, I was told to read read read, and I have indeed been doing that. But even then my knowledge has a few gaps.
First, I have a factory resetted stock BNTV250 tablet that is at version 1.4.3. I want to get to the CM12 Lollipop 'acclaim' nightlies on github.
As far as I can understand, these are the current instructions as a general overview;
1) Go from BN stock (what I currently have) to CM10. There are a couple of threads around that have enough information to get someone to this point. You format the (micro) SD card on your computer for fat32.
2) Then use the TWRP 2.8.5.2 from that thread on a properly formatted SD card (now ext4?) card to use the desired image (in my case CM12). Reboot and install CM12 using TWRP.
3) Then, to increase the performance (highly suggested) go to the "CMxx [sdcard as Emulated] {Walkthrough} Guide." So you can merge partitions into one 'single' large partition. But I am not sure if this can include the external SD card that I want to use or not (i.e. in that same partition). Also, I am not clear what is the largest size of SD card I can use on the nook?
I am also unclear if I could use an external USB keyboard or not with that (with a micro USB to standard female USB adapter)?
Ok. That's scenario #1. I *could* get eventually through all that and end up with CM12 installed.
But the *much* preferred scenario #2 that I do not know if it exists or not (indications are that exists for some versions CMXX) is to;
1) format an SD card, transfer the proper files onto it, put it in the nook, reboot,
2) the nook boots and automagically installs the desired CM12 image (or prompts a couple of times).
3) Then you shut down, remove the SD card, reformat it (ext 4?) , and install on device to expand usable memory for all those movies/music someone might want to watch.
I really do not know if scenario 2 exists exactly. I do know that #1 can be done.
As I said, I'm a noob like OP, and if anyone can fill in a couple of the gaps while I wait on the memory card to be delivered, I would appreciate it!
Edit: I don't understand why it's not possible to "sideload" TWRP (or something similar) onto 1.4.3 stock nook, then install an CM12 image from there.
The XDA forums can be like a maze sometimes! :laugh:
I also am having trouble with anything higher than cm-10.1 . I have jelly bean working on my nook tablet (bntv250a) right now. With the usual bugs
These are the files I have working now. cm-10.1-20130117-19-acclaim-HD.zip and gapps-jb-20130812-signed.zip I have tried many other combinations of 10.1 and 10.2 and 11.1 always seem to end in boot loop. But I can seemingly ALWAYS boot those two files and bring jelly bean back. So I don't think there is anything fundamentally wrong with my install technique. Probably WRONG though !!!
I did finally try the latest cm12 and it amazingly did boot and not loop. BUT...... It immediately said android updating. Went through about 95 updating and then finally got to the welcome screen. Others have seem a million popups saying goo apps not working or something to that effect.
Anyway I was able to connect to wifi and start the registration. Unfortunately it was running VERY VERY SLOW !!! The keyboard kept disappearing and was so SLOW that I never made it through.
I am taking note of what kodjo said in a post above about f2fs. I'm going research that and see if I can figure it out. Kind of a last ditch effort.
Keep up the good work folks
