Note that you have to use Acmeinstaller 2, not just acmeinstaller. Go over the step-by-step instructions carefully and try again. It should work.

Also you need to change the name of the newest CM9 download zips to have 'update-' at the beginning of the filename for AcmeInstaller2 to pick it up.

I have tried them but it still didn't work. I eventually installed through clockworkmod. But I still would like to know why it didn't install through acmeinstaller? The other touchpad I tried installed android fine through acmeinstaller2

Hi. I was following this guide here wiki.cyanogenmod.<(SPACE)>com/wiki/Viewsonic_G_Tablet:_Full_Update_Guide
(REMOVE <(SPACE)>)
I chose to install the 'update' to internal memory. Upon rebooting while holding the volume up and power buttons, "booting recovery kernel image" is seen but it doesn't progress beyond that point. After pressing the power button the tablet boots normally. I am stuck at Step 3 of the 2nd Method in the guide I had posted. I read somewhere that ROM Manager softbricks the device or something so I avoided it. How can I finish installing Cyanongen or perhaps switch to vegan? I would appreciate any responses

Err. Tap UI says 1.2-4349.
I'm having the exact same problem. Just got the tablet and starting from the beginning with CWM. I've tried internalsd, externalsd and nvflash and all three methods result in the same thing. Stuck on the booting recovery kernal image.
I may nvflash the stock recovery and try it again.

This means your on bootloader 1.2. Cm7 is made around bl 1.1 so it wont install correctly. You can install a modified version of cm7 that was packaged to run on bl 1.2. There is a thread in development by zyhong that has links to the modified cm7.
Here is the thread

There are 2 options for kernels. The roms on the linked thread come pre packaged with either pershoots or clemsyns 1.2 compatible kernel.

Okay, thanks. I followed this completely without any errors...how do I know if Cyanogen is installed? Everything looks the same, has the same settings, nothing was wiped (same apps in same places and still have flash). Nothing says cyanogen in the settings. Thanks!
You guys flashed (installed) the wrong cwm for your branch. You're on 1.2 but you flashed in cwm for 1.1.

You can't uninstall it. And no you didn't follow my guide. The fact that you put in the wrong cwm says this.
Go to my start here page and impliment code yellow. Make sure you look ahead at the rom page to know which rom you want and what branch its on.

I make these videos because I know how frustrating it is when there is a list of steps to take, but you are so uncertain if you are doing it right. I think people are much more comfortable SEEING someone actually perform the steps. Guides are good, but demonstrations are much better.

Reverend, I just wanted to thank you for all your excellent video How-To's.
I have a question and maybe others can chime in here.
When I originally installed CM9 I never did get a CWM Recovery. I recently updated to latest CM9 Nightly and I installed TWRP.
My question is, can I install CWM Recovery as well and how do I go about it?
My phone is running 2.3.4 and it is rooted. I tried to install Cyanogenmod and it didn't work.
It says Current Recovery: ClockworkMod 5.8.1.8 (I assume that's the right one?)
Already made backups using Titanium. Went to download ROM and only found the Cyanogenmod 7.1.0 (Stable Release). In other peoople's video it shows different kinds of Cyanogenmod but on mine only that was there.
I checked those three boxes, downloaded, and the phone restarted and it shows error sign and small Android robot. Waited and nothing happened so I just reboot my phone and it went to the ClockwordMod Recovery mode and I restored.
Any idea why this is happening? Did I do something wrong? What should I do?

Hi,
I want to try install the new Cyanogenmod on my Tab, read a bit about it, and tried last night to get it going. many different forums and steps were tried... none worked? Thing is, I read a lot of terms and stuff, but I'm not sure what they all mean.
My route took me through Android SDK's for drivers, Samsung drivers with escape??? no clue what that was?? Nvidia drivers? Then tried to use a program called Clockworkmod? Confusing, especially since nothing seemed to actually do anything?
What is it that I need to do exactly?
What i can say is that when I boot my Tab up, there is an unlocked padlock at the bottom of the screen.
I have the latest Cyanogenmod for my Tab "p3" downloaded, as well as the Google Apps.
Cheers

You need to use Odin to flash Clockworkmod recovery onto your tablet.
Then you need to download the p4wifi (if yours is wifi) edition of CM9
Then boot clockworkmod recovery and flash CM9 and then Google Apps
ok, but with more in depth steps please, i got a better idea now though!! thanks

Root http://www.androidauthority.com/galaxy-tab-10-1-root-clockworkmod-recovery-50799/ (stop after step 12.)
CM9 Flashable Zip http://download.cyanogenmod.com/get/jenkins/4709/cm-9-20120720-NIGHTLY-p4wifi.zip
Get into recovery mode, go to install zip from SD, select the zip /\ hit yes. Reboot.
Ok, no joy,
What I seem to have:
A working fastboot, fastboot devices does list my device. And when I try flash something via Odin, my Tab says "flashing mbr to device" so my action on my pc does initiate something on the tab. yet it stops there, at the flashing mbr to device screen. It does not start the recovery img.
A working adb, adb reboot recovery does reboot my tablet, but it still does not boot into recovery. It has a android sign, with a yellow exlamation mark over it.
I've tried to flash skitzandroid, clockworkmod, and the tabrooteasy one. I just cant seem to get this thing rooted?
Is there something I'm missing?
I do have an unlocked padlock on my screen when i boot it up.

I followed a post on here from malloneem - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2037368 - but I ran into an issue. I have CM7 running just fine on NT (thanks by the way ) but I'm trying up "upgrade" to CM10. I can boot into recovery and then into TWRP but it hangs after selecting the acclaim.zip file and gapps file. It states "Flashing file 1 of 2 /sdcard/sgt7-10-20121124-UNOFFICIAL-acclaim.zip" I let it run for 2 hours, but no luck.
Thanks in advance!

The method you're using is rather old. Before you try anything else I will interrupt your possibly long strenuous process of flashing CM10.
Before you attempt anything else, restore your tablet. You might be mad at me for saying this, but it makes things easier using the newer methods for flashing ROMs. You can restore your tablet by writing this repart.img to an SD card and putting it in your nook. It will write stock BN ROM to your tablet. Use this:
http://raywaldo.com/2012/06/how-to-un-brick-a-nook-tablet-8gb-or-16gb/
A lot of people have problems with TWRP. I could never get it to stop freezing up. Assuming you want to internally flash CM10 I'll give you this link to follow:
http://iamafanof.wordpress.com/2012/11/03/cm10-0-jelly-bean-for-nook-tablet-uploading/
If you are new to flashing ROMs there is a very simple way of using CM10 from an SD card. Just write it to your SD card and you're good! You can use a partitioning tool such as MiniTool to expand the different partitions of your SD card. Use this method if you want run from an SD card.
http://iamafanof.wordpress.com/2012/11/18/cm10-0-jellybean-sdcard-img-for-nook-tablet/
If you run into any problems along the way, just ask!
I appreciate the reply. I was able to flash back to factory, but I'm a bit perplexed on the second link. I do want to run CM10 internally. I was able to grab the file, but the link isn't exactly noob friendly on a "how to". Could you point me in the right direction to get started on this?
Thanks

Try this out.
Mega simple super duper easy way where you don't have to set up any partitions at all:
1. Download one of the ready-made CM10 sd-card images on Iamafanof website. Doesn't matter which! These images contain Cyanoboot.
2. Burn this image
3. Put your CM10 and gApps on this or another sd card.
4. Boot into Cyanoboot by holdninh "n" during bootup. Choose "sd recovery"
5. Clear cache and dalvik
6. Choose your zips and flash them
Once CM10 is installed you'll have Cyanboboot and CWM installed internally so if you need to reflass you just boot into Cyanoboot by holding the "n" at bootup.

It indeed takes 2-3 minutes but then it just flashes the Android home screen and goes back to the cyanogenmod boot splash screen.
I am guessing I should install another build perhaps?

Go to recovery and do a factory rest/total wipe, wipe cache, wipe dalvik cache. Then install the ROM again. If it still doesn't work try a different ROM.

By "cyanogenmod boot splash" do you means "Cyanoboot splash" or "Cyanogenmod boot-animation"?
You need to say more on what you did to "flash the ROM" so that we can discern what you might have done wrong.
