ALL Q&A FOR THIS ROM HAPPENS HERE.
Thanks.
Thank you very much! Just got it running, so far no issues or force closes. I have been waiting on a 1.1 bl honeycomb. Thank you!
Wow! Great news, definitely gonna give this a try, had lots of issues the last time I used a 1.2 based bootloader,so I'm really glad to see this!
Thanks!

I'm actually surprised that it took this long.
We used the 1.2 bl initially because we had to as we ported directly from the Adam devs. But once there were Clem kernel ports, it wasn't technically a requirement anymore. I just never changed my port as my opinions on 1.2 are already well-stated and sticking with it made sense to me, at least. But that doesn't mean that a 1.1 based HC ROM was impossible.
However, if NI releases a HC port and it's using a .36 kernel to make everything work, this 1.1 ROM might have issues with porting that. But this is all speculation, at this point - I don't know if a NI port will even work on a GTAB yet, regardless of the bootloader used.
does this has the same bl 1.2 version issues or just the usb to pc?!
bl 1.2 version has these issues:
(copied from other forum)
- Camera isn't working (pulled out the app for now)
- Browser is working, but OpenGL is disabled for it to work. That means no Flash on the stock browser.
- (High-def) video playback does not work, yet.
any testers can confirm this? i'm a bit feeling lazy to try it today
confirmed but very smooth i love it its not reading my sdcard though how can i get it to read sd card?

Editing out , as I PM'd the OP. Nothing bad, just some suggestions is all.
Awwwww, yeah! I'm pumped. Is this essentially the same as Roebeet's BOS, with the same features not working yet?
This is great news!
Is it accelerated?
Does it run Flash 10.3?

Odd...seems to work ok on mine.
I did notice that it's called "/external_sd" though, might want to check to see if you have that on your device.

One other thing, on a good note -- I'm definitely happy to see more modders our there for the GTablet. Options are always a good thing and I plan to pull back a bit, starting new month. So the more HC ports we have, the better!
Quick question... If I'm running Vegan 5.1.1, what do I need to do to install this ROM? Full wipe? Just flash it from CWM? Something else entirely?
Sorry, I'm still a bit of a noob at all of this, but I promise I'm trying to learn!

I was really hesitant to post anything, as I really don't want you taking this the wrong way. I apologize if it came off as anything else but a concern for post-support, that was not my intent (and, in retrospect, a PM would have been better. My bad).
The branding, for me, is mostly about post-support. Remember, I'm a sysadmin by trade so when I get PM's on issues, I usually ask the usual questions like what mod, what version, how did you install it, etc. That's actually why I started branding "TNT Lite" as such back in November, as it was easier for me to know if a user was actually using my ROM or not. That's really my only concern, here. When two different mods are branded the same, it will get confusing. Especially if they are on two different development branches. It is fun, I agree - that's why I do this. But for users who soft-brick, it's sometimes a major panic attack and a lot of them are hesitant to use nvflash.

Robeet, I think you were spot on, the OP is not reading it correctly. I can just see the flood of posts/PM's asking you questions and users cross posting between 1.1/1.2 because of this and the difficulty of tracking all this. it's difficult enough keeping up with all these great roms and boot loader types, I could not imagine what it is like on your guys side.
OP he is not dissing you, he is just asking that you rename it so you can support issues and he does not have to keep getting cross questions, it's pretty much non-issue in my eyes.
OP, thanks for supporting the Gtab and the 1.1. people like all you devs that make android so much fun and android FTW over IOS.

Yes, full wipe and flash it. do a backup of course just incase you want to go back. back up your apps as well so you can restore them on the other side of HC.

And it starts....says "Bottle of Smoke" in your XDA app.
Remember - it's a fork of BoS. It has a different kernel and possibly a different ramdisk, so I don't know how it will perform versus BoS (the original one).

Maybe this should be called something like "Bottle of Smoke MOD" since technically it is a modified version of the original.
I little while ago I flashed the BAMF-GingerREMIX-v2.0-Beta6 with the Darkhorse theme but it's been like a month or two since I did that and I was curious if there is an update to this ROM because I didn't see anything in the development forums on Thunderbolt and I expected to see a number of the latest BAMF updates but I see a CM7 and a bunch of others that I never seen before. Anyone point me to the right link or know anything about this? thanks!

They have their own site/forum and updates there. Don't have a link, but google for bamf forum or something like that and it should turn up.
I found the site and forums about their ROMS but nothing speaks anywhere that I could see to weather specific roms will work with the thunderbolt or not where as in these forums I know they are meant to work on the Thunderbolt. I just don't want to DL a rom from there and find out, oh CRAP this was meant for an Atrix, not a Thunderbotl and now I've bricked my phone!

If you are in the thunderbolt/roms section then they are for thunderbolt, the only other roms are for the incredible. They are working on a DX2 Rom but they don't have a section for it yet.
Hi all,
I am looking to root my HP Touchpad but am a bit overwhelmed by the options available and cautious about the bugs mentioned in various roms.
I have a Nook Tablet rooted to the newly released CM7 so I am familiar with the process but there seem to be alot more options to take with the Touchpad.
Firstly, what should I root to? I am reading it is CM9 rather than CM7. Then some people are crooning about ICS which I have never tried. I also see that when people root it seems to be dual boot method rather than just one...is that mandatory?
Could anyone point me to the thread or a nice guide for rooting to CM9? I see one with CM9 and cornerstone...is this the one everyone is using or a variation of it?
cyanogen mod comes prerooted.
i believe you mean which rom to Flash.
and in regards to your question, i actually have no problems with CM9 atm. It's pretty nice.
if you want a "how to install android on your touchpad", go to rootzwiki and follow the instructions in the cm9 alpha 2 thread.
EDIT: yes, dual booting is mandatory for now afaik. It's a safety mechanism in case something happens. you can atleast revert back to webos and start from scratch then.

Thanks that's exactly what I was looking for.
Ty all for responses.
If I am reading this right, I have to install CM7 first then upgrade to CM9. Is there a marked difference between 7 & 9? I am used to 7 from the Nook Tablet but if CM9 is better for the HP I will get it.
No you do NOT have to install CM7 before installing CM9.
And yes, there is a HUGE difference between the two. CM7 is Gingerbread, originally made for phones (and the occasional tablet - but highly tweaked in those tablet versions). CM9 is a tablet OS that can be tweaked to work with phones.
I highly recommend reading the thread in my first reply, on RootzWiki, which explains what you need to get and download and do in order to install CM9. Or, as I said, PM me, and I'll walk you through it.

Can you direct me to that thread? Not sure what you mean by thread in your first reply.
I need a guide that is using the new CM9. I am using this page which was linked to me. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=23740765But looking at this page all tuorials seem to be Cm7 or something else. Maybe it's there but I am not seeing it.
For example, is this CM9? http://rootzwiki.com/topic/10121-releasealpha35cyanogenmod-touchpad/ Or is this something else? It just says CM Touchpad.

Okay, first off. Your second link is not CM9, it's CM7. You can tell by reading it. At the bottom, the author discusses CM7. I think the current official release of CM9 is Alpha2. Check here. There's a link in that article, but you'll have to read it. Here is the link to CM9. Alpha3.5 was CM7 from November of last year. CM9 Alpha2 is from February of this year.
To find the CM9 link is pretty easy. Look near the top of the link you posted, almost in the (top) center of the page, there's a link that says 'CyanogenMod[Touchpad]'. That's the link to the 'parent forum'. By clicking that link you'll find the posts in that forum. If you look at the light grey in each post, there are dates there. CM9 Alpha2 is currently the most recent official version, so logically, it's the post with the most recent date.
And like I said, if you look on Youtube for a 'Reverend Kyle', he explains everything you need to know in very simple terms. His videos are very easy to follow, and you can even do it without reading the full RootzWiki page. You can probably even find a direct link to the files on his youtube videos, so you won't even have to use google.
The install procedures for CM9 and CM7 are exactly the same. They use different files, but the process is the exact same.

Thanks for clearing these things up for me.
I suspected the install procesdures were identical, but wasn't 100% sure and knowing me that's where i'd mess it up - leaving out something v. important.
I see on the CM9 link there are links to Reverends video guides, so I am gonna start watching his channel and take it from there.

His vids are very explanatory. He's also got his own forum and an Android app that both might also be useful.
Plus he's a SUPER-nice guy. He'll answer any questions you have if you post in his forum or as a comment to one of his youtube vids. Although, his forum would probably be faster.

Success! I did it using the videos and it went off without a hitch. He breaks it down so well. Some things I even had to skip past because he was explaining them in such length - which is no bad thing.
Anyways, thank you steering me in the right direction.

I have an unlocked and rooted Atrix, gone from RedPill to CM7 and am now looking to the AOKP found here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1580449
Since I'm a 'noob' and can not yet post in the development section, I figured I'd ask my questions here.
Much of the thread appears to be somewhat outdated, since many of the issues that were bothering people have been corrected by updated builds. It seems that some people are still having at hard time with the external SD card, and that SDCardswitch.zip is something that will help. What kind of application is this and where can I find it?
As for overclocking, the consensus was to use Jokersax CM9 1.3, but I've seen people using Atrix V4 1.5. Is there one that's better than the other?
Is there a new radio that I should flash?
How well does the joker fingerprint mod work?
There was also some people mentioning a USB Widget...any suggestions about that?
What kind of launcher is compatible with this rom? I have GO launcher Pro with CM7, will it carry over?
If there's anything that I might be missing, please let me know. I don't mind looking for the links and downloads, I'm just looking for some direction. I'm looking forward to downloading and testing this rom out!
Thanks, and I hope I haven't rambled too much...
I bought my phone on swappa and it was rooted/unlocked/s-off. I put a bunch of different roms on it and have enjoyed using this phone. I sold it today and the buyer wanted stock on it. I told him that I didn't plan on doing that because I don't even know if it's possible. I would, however, like to put something on the phone that is pretty stable. The last version of CM9 I tried was not very good and that's what is currently on it. Any suggestions of what I should do would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Do you have a ruu suggestion? I just want something stable because I have no idea if this guy knows how do any of this once he gets the phone. I basically told whoever bought it that it has a version of CM9. I just want to know if there is something more stable to put on the phone. CM9 or 10 preferred rom would be nice.
I can't post links due to <10 posts but there is a thread just a few down from this one (started at 3:40 yesterday) that has links in it for returning to stock, including re-locking.

Thanks Doug. I just found that post before reading yours. I think I'm just going to leave what I have on it and just call it good. I put in my listing that it had CM9 and root so if he doesn't like it, he shouldn't have bought it. I just don't have enough time to take it back to stock before tomorrow. I really wanted to know if there was a better version of CM9 but after reading a few threads, looks like not much has changed. Thanks everyone.
