I have figured out how to fix the WebOS Doctor / 12% issue!!!

It seems that this particular issue is revolving around an issue with "resizefat /dev/mapper/store-media" and the fact that the fat size is different than the backup.

I did a bit of research and came up with the following solution:

Run WebOS Doctor via CMD line "java -jar webosdoctorp302hstnhwifi.jar"

When the Dr. hangs up at 12% open novaterm and connect to your device

Then type the following command:

dosfsck -r /dev/mapper/store-media

And follow the prompts to correct the fat size to the backup

Now put your tablet back into recovery mode and re-run WebOS Doctor. The error where it is hanging up should be gone and the system will flash completely.

(Comments from attempts appreciated)

OK - I had an issue after running webos doc 3.0.2 so I ran 3.0.0 - after it finished I had to plug the tablet into a power outlet and let it charge for a bit before it let me set up the system. It was hung up at the stupid HP splash screen for maybe 5-10 minutes but once it charged I got the prompt to select a language.

Question about novaterm

Hey! This is great news. I'm living abroad and did not want to have to ship the touchpad back.

I have a quick questions because I am not so computer literate. I don't understand when you say "When the device hangs up, open Noveterm and connect your device." First, it hangs up but goes into a never ending loop of messages scrolling in the comand window. How do I stop this? How do I open novaterm, and wouldn't my device already be connected?

Thank you so much for your help!

BEst regards from Norway

[TouchPad General] nononsense:
so i here is what i did and it actually solved the problem:

system details/programs used:

running Win7 x64 via Parallels on Mac OSX

WebOS doctor 3.0.2

Novaterm x64 (webos-internals.org/wiki/Portal:Accessing_Linux)

exact steps that i did (some may not be preformed, but this is what i did)

restarted the touchpad: center + power

upon reset, held: power + volume up to enter dev mode

ran webos doctor through the command "java -jar webosdoctorp302hstnhwifi-3.0.2.jar"

went through the normal hoopla and got to the 12% hangup where it goes in an endless loop.

launched novaterm

used the command: "mkfs.msdos /dev/mapper/store-media"

restarted the touchpad: center + power

upon reset, held: power + volume up to enter dev mode

re-ran WebOS doctor

hung at 12% for a minute then the process jumped to 25% and finished installing.

5 min reboot and back to the "select language" screen.

Hope this is of help to someone.

Also, I won't be back to this forum, so I can't answer questions.

Good luck!

bad news

i tried the same thing on my touchpad:

if i thyp:

mkfs.msdos /dev/mapper/store-media

then it says no such file or directory

if i look for store media, in the directory it exists, i also can still boot into the webos. but i can not paste anything into the toucpad, most of the aplications wont work either. its like the file store-media is corrupted, and i can not access it with novaterm. it can not find it.

does anyone know a solution?

i would be greatfull
[TouchPad General] jlove:
is there a way to manually flash webos on the touchpad, maybe i can then overwrite the corupted files

Don't Give the Once "Head Honcho of Apple" Anymore Sh!t. Send out your prayers!!!

As a tech/phone junkie this is really sad for me to see. The once "Head Honcho of Apple" is obviously very sick. Which leaves me to believe the reason for his resignation. I'm not going to lie, as much as I love android and dislike apple products because its so closed source, he definitely changed the game. IMO his computers are still the sh!t. I owned a jailbroken iPhone and as far as hacking anything goes that's where my cherry was first popped. I'm done giving Steve Jobs crap, & as a community we all love the same thing. So there is no reason to hate apple anymore. The decisions they have made in the past is now in the past (the whole HTC dispute). & we could only hope better ones would be made in the future. Let us as a community send out prayers for this man as he helped pave the way for what we love to do today.

Agree, hate to say but if it wasn't for the first iPhone then phones today would still be crappy. Apple is the reason why we have so much competition in the cell phone race. Every phone out there is always compared to the iPhone.

[HTC EVO 3D] r0cky0790:
I would totally have to agree with you. Like i mentioned in the OP, I was once a short term fanboy for the iPhone when i jailbroke it. Only until I was introduced to something better. Don't flame me but I'm being honest. I even gave up my G1 for the iphone. That phase only lasted till i got the OG Evo though. After that it was no turning back. Like you said though Cory, if it wasn't for the iPhone, we would still probably be stuck with something like the t-mobile dash.

I agree with everything said so far. Cancer has ran its course in my family for a while now. From grandfather, to my father, to my 18 month old daughter. Not good in any scenario. Thoughts will be with him no doubt.

I never had problems with Steve Jobs. I just hate his company. My prayers go out to him.
[HTC EVO 3D] chlehqls:
+1

I don't really have a big problem with the guy myself, but the way his company tries to think everything they do is revolutionary. Though that being said, I will gladly say that the iPhone, iPad, and iPod were game changers. Without all these devices, I'm sure the tech market would look a bit different. How different, well that depends on speculators.

My thoughts and prayers go to Steve. That doesn't even look like him anymore...

Jeesh Jay. I'm so sorry! I have an 18 year old, an 11 year old, a 3 year old and my boy that just turned 1 last week. I own a restaurant and a some toys.... I'd give up all the toys and money for health and happiness. Btw.... I'm only 34 lol. We started young.

Thank you Dave. She is doing good now :D 22 months of chemo, she's a tough one. :p I didn't start that young, lol, but I do have 3 myself. 7 yr old boy, and twin 6 yr old girls. I'm 32 and I'm done son, lol.

I do feel that Apple did lead the way for all the phones we have now. I don't care for them one bit honestly, but I can not stand to see someone suffer, no matter who it is. I knew he stepped down because of health but I didn't realize it was that bad.
[HTC EVO 3D] life64x:
The man, no matter what you think of home was a business visionary and a very decent person. My prayers go out to him...in times like this, strip away all the technology and all that other crap..only when we truly see a person as that, a human, we stop, look and feel for the man, his family and we look at ours..we pause and see, life and all it's forms is precious. Particulary the creature called a man, woman and child.
[HTC EVO 3D] r0cky0790:
Yeah, I don't think anybody has a personal problem with Steve. He was just running the frontline, so he endured all the heat. We all just don't like the fact that as a company Apple won't except the fact that the competition has closed in on them and claimed the market. & the only way they knew how to fight back is by lawsuits.

As a persons who's father went through the devastation of cancer I send all my thoughts and prayers to Steve jobs. I'll still always choose android over apple but I would never wish cancer even to my worst enemy.
[HTC EVO 3D] nerv666999:
ehemmm.... gentlemen lets not forget that he was the company. The classic toxic type A that need to control everything within their sight. The type of personality that statistically is more likely to have cardiac issues and even many types of malignancies among other maladies. I wish him a peaceful end but just because one is sick and (perhaps) dying shouldn't mean they get a free pass for their acts and decisions made when in better health.

Many titans of industry have the same story arc and while it may be appropriate to extoll what was accomplished it might not be prudent to extend that praise to the individuals themselves. Henry Ford and Walt Disney immediately spring to mind as I write this
[HTC EVO 3D] Rydah:
You know, o may not agree with jobs's decisions, but I hope the best for him. Wishing well.

Girlfriends dad was lost due to cancer.. never seen such sadness in someones eyes when someone talks about her him. I will say I dont understand gods objective with this kind of sickness but I still keep faith. I will pray and hope that we can all beat this sickness one day.

Soldiers are one thing

Police officers/firefighters/and all those in the medical field are another thing

and even those who are heros in tragedy are another

but my hat goes off to those who fight cancer along with their families, and all these other diseases in the world. They will always be looked by me as the bravest I have ever met. To anyone who has had or has a loved one with cancer I hope all is well and a safe recovery.
[HTC EVO 3D] teddat:
we've heard this many times "If it wasn't for ____________, we wouldn't have_________"

Its true for many things we take for granted in our privileged lives. But in all honesty, if it wasn't for apple/iphone/steve we'd be still using resistive touchscreens with stylus inputs. who knows how long that path if ever would have converged with what we have now. android or not. windows 7 phone or not.

Here's to the crazy ones. He'll be in my thoughts. Get better soon.

I'm curious why a multi-billionaire who can afford the best medical care on the planet deserves so many prayers and well wishes, yet people far more deserving of our care and support who are suffering from cancer even worse than him are unseen and forgotten about as they sit in second-rate hospitals and suffer.
[HTC EVO 3D] life64x:
Because a human life is a human life, from the guy on the street wheeling a shopping cart to a person head of a corp. As long as they did not commit crimes and sins toward our species, human life should be gleamed as precious. While I agree with you about the untold masses of suffering, we don't forget about them also. He is not better or worse then anybody else. A human is a human. It make us what we are. Unique.

Do you think while he's going through whatever he's going through he's proud of all the people he ever wronged? Even though that would be a typical human action to continue to condemn a person for their mistakes, it isn't really the Godly thing to do. No I'm not a Pastor nor am I always in Church, but I damn sure have a little more compassion then what you displayed^^^.

I agree. How about some prayers to those troops fighting and dying right now. I'll pray for them, and for the sick people that I know. Yes, Jobs' sickness is sad, but it does not effect me nor my life. I still don't like his company and his cancer can't change that.

I don't want to turn this into the Bible Study/Religion thread but.. you can pray for more than one person. Sure he wasn't out fighting for our lives but he did better our everyday lives by introducing competition into the market. Do i like his company or use his products? No. But will I hope he gets better? Yes. I can't imagine someone being okay with another having cancer simply because he doesn't approve of his business ethics. That in no way reflects his personal life (something that we as consumers/strangers don't see). Anyways I hope he gets a little better and wish him the best.

Please reread what I said....as long as they did not commit sins or crimes against s fellow human.

And I do agree with you, what he did was wrong. But this is not a thread on god, or what ever it is. Cancer is a *****, a equal opportunity destroyer of humanity, and a person that is suffering. If you don't like him or apple, fine.
[HTC EVO 3D] :
I know this man not comparing Steve to Bin Laden.

Free Dirk!!!
[HTC EVO 3D] ckoadiyn:
no not comparing to anyone just saying make sure you pray for everyone not just those that are sick etc. while bin laden was the picture for his orginazation doesn't mean he should have died .same with husane both should have gone to trial did they no so yes they deserve prayer just as much imo. Just seems dumb to want to say a prayer for someone you don't know. And while he's sick I still hate the man don't wish him to suffer though. And for what he has done good and bad and the lawsuits he was still the one making the orders. All Im trying to say is EVERYONE good and bad deserves a prayer due to the fact their life and the wa things are lead them to be that person which doesn't make it their fault for some yes they do choose but it still is due to enviroment or illness
[HTC EVO 3D] jrmatics:

[HTC EVO 3D] life64x:
This thread is getting way to political, I will say this then leave. Humanity is great, it is men and woman that destroy it. For me and only me, I say we first have to look in the mirror, before we say this or that about anybody. I for one don't like the idea of we are so fragile as a species, so dumb and stupid and barbaric to ourselfs and others. Dreamlike worlds only exist in fiction. Life, for all shapes and forms is wonderfully exquisite and at the same barbaric. All wrapped up in what we call reallity. If we care for people, who we care for is up to the person..we then are human. Without caring, we would of died a long time ago.
[HTC EVO 3D] ckoadiyn:
Didn't compare the two read my previous post just saying good and bad deserve prayers just cause u don't know why they do what they do doesn't make them deserve less then anyone else and was tossing those out their BTW I notice no one mentioned the japs running planes in to ships etc. U guys just wanna focus on the fact I said bin laden should have got peoples prayers to which makes this whole give a prayer thing fake for most people as someone said all human life is precious that's all.

Why do people keep saying that? Everything evolves from something. I honestly believe phones would've became what they are today regardless. Apple just tried to be better than RIM, and Google tried to be better than Apple. These "cell phone wars" are just like the gaming console wars.

Without Motorola we wouldn't have what we have today.

Jobs is a brilliant man who made a difference. I just hope he can let Apple go and somehow he can concentrate on himself and survive this. As for Apple...

Sorry I'll save my prayers for someone who actually needs it. With all that money he has, he doesn't need any of our prayers. He has access to the best medical team that money can buy.
