[TouchPad General] joshts0:
So we can stop seeing these over and over and over again.

Common issues:

1. If it goes to sleep, it may not wake up. Force reboot by holding down the power button and center button on the front of the screen for 15 seconds.

2. Wifi may not connect. Try disabling and re-enabling wifi. That may not work still, try rebooting. That may still not work.. come back later, it may work then. Seriously, I rebooted 20 times with no luck, cycling and cycling, no luck still, set it down to charge for a few minutes, came back, walla, all was good. Now, I was at least able to connect for a bit... and then LATER it stopped working.. if you were NEVER able to connect, that may be a different story. Worst case, do a wipe data/factory reset in CWM, that should fix it.

Another bit that may help:

Go to wifi settings. Click your router and forget. Turn wifi off then back on again. Then connect back to your router with your password

More ideas:

Also, go to Settings | Wireless & Networks | Wi-Fi Settings .. click the Menu button, then click Advanced. Turn your Wifi Sleep Policy to Never, so that it stays on when your screen goes off, that should help, though it may drain your battery. But, its an alpha, so oh well.

5. Google apps are missing. Install gapps. You obviously didn't read ANY thread about it, so go back to it and do it again. Or be lazy and get it here: http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/Latest_Version#Google_Apps

Flash that zip in CWM.

4. Market has apps missing. There is a fix now.

On that page, it links you to the fix.. here it is

(If I'm not supposed to link directly to that, let me know, I'll remove it).

Just flash this fix in CWM. If you don't know how to do that, don't use this alpha, but also.... mash in one of the download links into your browser in android, download it. Now it probably put it into your 'download' directory on your "sd card". Reboot into "Recovery" or choose Recovery in the boot loader. Go to Install Zip from SD Card.. and choose zip from sd card.. then navigate to your 'download' directory, select it, and walla, market is now fixed.

5. I want Swype. I don't know how to search. How do I get Swype without searching?

Start here... http://rootzwiki.com/showthread.php?7916-HOW-TO-Make-Swype-Work-on-the-TouchPad

Here's where I'm at with Swype so far... I used the resolution they used as an example.. Screenshot below. I used the Beta installer. Haven't messed with other resolutions yet to see if I like the outcome better...

6. CM7 Deleting files/directories copied while in WebOS usb mode...

http://code.google.com/p/cmtouchpad/issues/detail?id=69

In short, copy them while in CM7.. or use the workaround in there.. or wait until they fix it...

7. Facebook Force-closes ...

Use FakeGPS to set a location, Facebook is crashing when it tries to get a GPS location.

I just wanted to try to put all these EXTREMELY REPEATED questions in one place in hopes that people will see them and stop asking :) Anyone have any more to add? I know there may be a few more places that have this exact content, but I didn't see any quite like it here...

I'll update this post as I see new tips, so post away.
