This is why I'm so excited that XRON will soon have its own website. Rather than searching through a 5000+ post thread (finding potentially old information) we might have numerous, shorter threads that each focus on a separate issue. I can't wait! :)

You don't like 50 free gigs of cloud storage?
[TouchPad Development] joehank:
I thought it was only 5 gigs? I'm still on v2.9 and it was installed. Already, I just had to create account.

Edit: just checked, only 5 gigs, was there a special offer when you did yours Krunk?
[TouchPad Development] isanrap:
Thanks a lot for the heads up :-)

On another off topic note, I tried to install Amazon appstore so I could get splashtop for free and it told me(after I installed. It) that Amazon appstore Is not available in my region . I am deployed in Kuwait right now. Is there a setting I can change or Is it an internet thing? Would one of those IP spoofing apps work?

edit: I am able to go to Amazon.com to buy things. I just went there for the same application.I was able to purchase it for free,and was directed to open Amazon appstore to dl it,which it let me do and install? Strange...
[TouchPad Development] Noobla_Khan:
Good...I was going to post up the apk(Amazon) for you to sideload, glad you got it firgured out.
[TouchPad Development] ewalk4866:
OK so for everyone know both the new touchpads that you bought are going out today. one for tommytomatoe and the second one for chubbz they should have them next week sometime. I also just wanted to take a minute to thanks you everyone for donating to make this happen with out you guys we would have not been able to get soo many touchpads this as fast as we did so THANKS GUY. Also i wanted to thank the four new devs that are now part of this awsome team and i know we will start to see you touchpad just get better and better now so THANKS GUYS and walcome aboard and cant wait to see what you guys have for us. :)
[TouchPad Development] Leoisright:
The problem, debugging apps won't happen much. Skype isn't what I deal with much. There are a lot of moving parts.

As far as the theme goes, a poll has already been done. I have no intention of keeping this like cm version only tweaked. Plus I'm not in to making themes for theme manager.

Sounds like you want me to make a custom Rom for you, sorry but this is for 10,000 people. The bloating has been beaten to death. Remove what you don't like.
[TouchPad Development] Krunk_Kracker:
If you log into webOS and open the box app, you'll get 50 gigs of storage free.
[TouchPad Development] joehank:
Oh yeah, forgot about that. I haven't logged into webos for a month
[TouchPad Development] ewalk4866:
OK guys so we just did it again! i bought one more touchpad just now for TMartin and he should have it sometime next week as well. So welcome aboard tmartin and look forward to seeing your work as well.:)
[TouchPad Development] cjvail13:
Big thanks

Big thanks to Leoisright and others that have helped. I have been using xron since I got my touchpad 3 weeks ago and its been great. Never had to post here before as the questions that i had were always asked and answered in this thread. Thanks everyone.

Leoisright I sent what I could hope it helps. Confirmation number: 0RJ27447B9107644J.

how to remove HP printer app

I do not have an HP printer, and the app insists on opening my doc files where it renders them incorrectly. How can I remove or at least disable this app- there is not an option to remove it on the app directory.
[TouchPad Development] herrdude:
Delete it from /system/apps.

Probably should reboot while you are at it.

PS This is shown in Reverend Kyle's video...
[TouchPad Development] af250xxl:
if more and more people hear about the XRON rom.... won't that somehow

drive up the prices of Touchpads? :D

here's what I'm thinking.... I absolutely love both of my Touchpads now that

they're both running XRON roms. :) Not to mention I only paid $83 for each

from HP.com on the first day of the firesale.

I am actually in the market for a 3rd tablet.(4th, if you count the iPad 2

that I also own) Most Touchpads are still hovering around $200 on eBay

and other places. However, there are some decent Android tablets for just

over $300.(example: Toshiba Thrive 8GB for $349, and a couple of the

Asus tablet) Which one am I better off buying?

---------- Post added at 12:53 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:52 PM ----------

I have been wondering about that.... when I go into /system/apps, it just keeps

telling me the apk & odex files cannot be deleted. Am I using the wrong file explorer?

(ES File Explorer)

Thanks! :)
[TouchPad Development] herrdude:
I user Root Browser (free from the Market). The first time you use it, it asks for SuperUser access and then it does the trick.

PS If you go to post number 2 of this thread and watch the second video, he is using ES File Explorer.
[TouchPad Development] pgzerwer:
Under settings in ES File Explorer, check Root Explorer (allow SuperUser), then check Mount File System and you will be able to wreak unspeakable havoc within your system files - you'll be fine if you just be careful what you change/delete.
[TouchPad Development] isanrap:
you have to activate root permission and mount the system in es file explorer watch Reverend Kyle's video he has explained it well.

Just as a quick side note, I haven't had any WiFi issues since v1.2, but yesterday I decided to give chainfire 3d a go and it completely messed up WiFi in 2.9.1 for me. I tried everything, since I have been around from the beginning I know all the workarounds, and they were all a no go. Had to go back to 2.8 then 2.9.1, so caution to those with WiFi issues when installing chainfire 3d.

[TouchPad Development] af250xxl:
I just noticed something unusual after I rebooted.

A few of the icon titles on my home screen were scrolling and I have no idea why.

For example: "Sketch n Draw" is now scrolling the whole title.(normally it shows

up as just "Sketch n D" and the "raw" gets cut off. After the title scrolls for a

few times. It stops and goes back to normal.("Sketch n D")

Does anyone know why those icons would do that? Like I said, it only happens

after I boot the Touchpad, currently running v2.9.1.

Thanks! :)
[TouchPad Development] Harsh:
guys my friend is willing send me his 16GB touchpad from US to me in Germany. Could anybody suggest which courier would be better to use?

Asking here because

1st. I am gonna install this ROM as soon as I get it.

2nd. Few people here may have this experience

3rd. Getting it for Development purpose :D

Also for all using rootbrowser lite (with adds) don't forget if you add this file

You get the same functionality as the pro version!

[TouchPad Development] af250xxl:
I shipped a Touchpad to my girlfriend in Frankfurt(an der Oder, not Main),

while she was on assignment there. I think I paid US$42 for "International

Priority Mail" and I declared insurance value as $399.(yes, I know I only paid

$83 for the Touchpad :D ). It arrived safe and sound after just 4 days.

Or, if you have a FedEx corporate account, it will only cost $51 to ship and takes

only two days. Just checked the FedEx's corporate ship page for my company.

[TouchPad Development] Harsh:

[TouchPad Development] kopitekid:
Just got splashtop for free from getjar and this is an awesome app. Will allow me to get around the Sky Go restriction of streaming to only two registered devices.

However I don't have a facebook account to sign in with. Is it possible to get this app back next time i wipe my device. Or is it possible to d/l the .apk from this site

Thanks
[TouchPad Development] sigson:
I don't have a link but here is what has worked for me (usually after flashing the latest XRON)....If the headphones don't work/very low sound I usually open up the volume controls (with headphones in) turn off haptic feedback scroll the sound output up/down (basically change some settings) close out the setting panel and reboot (without headphones in). Upon reboot I reopen the file I was trying to listen to and viola - it works. I have also read where others do the same with DSP manager and it works too (even without the reboot).
[TouchPad Development] lowetax:
just saying, donations go through without posting confirm numbers in the thread ...
[TouchPad Development] sigson:
(Regarding Splashtop) It is the free app on the Amazon app store today too..Amazon allows you to save it to your Amazon account thus allow you to use in the future (if needed) rather than worrying about if it is still free on GetJar
[TouchPad Development] kopitekid:
To fix my headphones i simply reboot with them plugged in

Always works for me!

How about using Apkextractor from the market

to pull the apk out of your Splashtop and save it somewhere (maybe box.com)
[TouchPad Development] domenci:
I was hoping the OP would eventually be updated to reflect the changes made to 2.9 from 2.8, but it looks like I'll have to ask here since there was a lot of talk of "scripts" and other help from MisFit on that release: what are sq mods? Besides Leo's two brief mentions just that they were there and another link to the OP I can't find any mention of "sq mods" in any context connected to Android. Thanks!

great rom, btw, having no wifi or reboot problems. Then again I always doublecheck the MD5 on my downloads and follow instructions (except when people say wipe the same thing multiple times, that's just silly). Keep up the great work.
[TouchPad Development] Beanchimp:
I have 2 questions that hopefully can be answered (totally unrelated though)

Leo, does all the work you do change any of the CM7 Alpha 3 core stuff in a major way, or is it more just little tweaks here and there (appreciate you do a lot to this ROM) and now with the new Dev Team will you now essentially be creating your own custom ROM from Source Code or will it always be based on whatever Cyanogen do ?

I did ask (but didn't see an answer) do you use anything from the ICS source or purely SDK (in relation to icons themes etc, and if from SDK any particular reason)

My other question may just be a general android question

I have a Macbook and I connected the Touchpad to it and moved a lot of files, however it hasnt moved them, it has copied and pasted the files and removed the originals but hasnt freed up the space

Is there anywhere on the Touchpad I can 'remove' or reclaim this free space as I now have no free space left on the device

Thanks
[TouchPad Development] russg:
I don't currently have 2.9.1 installed but I was toying around today with Wifi. As I've posted earlier my Atheros based route plays very nicely with the TP with XRON. The broadcom based router does not. Well, I turned on the 5ghz radio on the Broadcom and connected to that. The connetion seemed solid but the TP would reboot itself.

Switched back to the Atheros and the rebooting stopped. Odd, very odd.

Need to update one of my TPs to 2.9.1 and see if that still happens.
[TouchPad Development] FishDoc:
Two minor problems

First problems I've had on any of the Xron editions. First, SPB Shell installed fine but doesn't want to launch on first attempt. Second try works but frequently closes. Any advice? Second, android market won't download Box because it sees the i9100 in build props. What will I screw up if I change the build prop back to touchpad? Thanks in advance.

I dont see any harm in it.. I think people are excited about this ROM and the possibilities and donating may be the only way they can help contribute as they are not technically inclined. So it makes them feel good to say thanks to Leo and post their confirmation # like a badge of honor. I think its pretty cool..I've never seen another thread like this before where everyone is so excited to help. Just saying....
[TouchPad Development] hadeone:
This rom works great for the most part. Doesn't feel like a hack at all but the fact that the mic and camera don't work does limit the functionality of the device.

Are there xron cm7 fixes in the works for the mic and cam or will they be working on ICS?
[TouchPad Development] swear0730:
Its not noobness. I posted my confirmation number for two reasons.

1) Anybody can say they will/did donate. Doesn't mean they did. Remember: we're all out in the ether.

2) If Leo or the rest of the team happens to try to match up donations to people it makes it easier.

I know that if I was putting this together I'd be keeping a list of donors and would have columns for confirmation#, donation amount, paypal login and XDA member ID.

Not saying they are though.

Wow, perfect! Thx so much for the help!
[TouchPad Development] scrotty:
I've seen the same behavior. I just kept restarting it. But I've noticed of late that it's been starting fine on several consecutive attempts. Maybe another example of necessary quiescence?

I changed my back and haven't noticed any adversity (make sure to reboot after update for change to take effect). But I also don't play many games as so didn't care about the reason behind the change in the first place. That is, you might find that Box is now accessible, but other apps you want are not.

Hey Devs and community!

New to TP and just recently went through all of the posts. Phew! (Reminds me of the early days of myn warm roms for evo when being gone for a day meant 20-30 pages of reading!).

Was rocking my OG evo, but since I jumped into XRON after the New Year, my evo has gotten a lot less work.

Leo + Devs... great work on this beta port of an alpha port. The finished product is going to be absolutely amazing if my TP is running so smoothly now, especially with all of the great devs coming aboard.

Reading through all of the posts, I am quite impressed with the community assembled here. Really looking forward to being a part of this. I felt it was only right to donate for all of the hard work in making our TPs so great. I wont post the confirmation number up here because it seems kinda silly to me (but to each his own!), but I really wanted to share my thanks!

What's the difference between jump and splashtop?
[TouchPad Development] lowetax:
how about vpn to work server pptp ?
[TouchPad Development] dajogejr:
Jump uses port forwarding and RDP standards for remote desktop viewing/using.

Splashtop uses a software client that broadcasts and must be installed and configured but doesn't require port forwarding, etc.
[TouchPad Development] rwstarke:
I believe that Splashtop does not use secure encryption. Jump uses TightVNC on your PC as the default service.

[TouchPad Development] FussyQBert:
Sorry, a bit of a RDP/VNC/VPN noob. Just need some clarification. The built-in VPN function seems broken as of B2.9.

I need to log in to my place of employment's VPN PPTP server. If I try to use JumpDesktop will I have to forward ports from my windows machine or on the whole work network? Obviously I wouldn't be able to forward ports for the whole network.. :/

Splashtop is kind of expensive, and sounds exactly like TeamViewer which is free. If I used either one of these, would I be able to connect to the VPN server here at work, without modifying anything (save installing a file on my windows box here).

Thanks for the help...

Thanks man. I fixed the notification bar being black and updated a few icons to ICS. Looks good so far. Will have an upload tonight. I am not sure what to do with the search button. Thinking about just making it something entirely different from HC to make it match better with the other ones
[TouchPad Development] Leoisright:
The changelog is really only asthetic looks.

* Fixed notification bar to be grey

* Changed search icon in menu soft key to 3 dots. I will continue to work on a matching one but will take time.

* Fixed other Theming issues with icons here and there. Changed to either ICS, HC, or Stock CM7.1

* Made sure Swype is removed entirely

There isn't any SOD issues that Im experiencing. I always wipe factory reset/wipe cache and then install.

Prior to installing I will open zip and install any apps that I have that are paid then zip and flash. I totally bypass TB or any other backup software.

You should be able to wipe dalvik/cache and flash over top so you may not lose any information.

Thanks,

You may want to try a different computer or usb port, with the required novacom drivers, and if that doesn't work, maybe try using webos doctor to bring it back and start fresh.
[TouchPad Development] Leoisright:
I'm gonna scrub thru the scripts tonight and see if there are anything that could be causing conflicts with ip. Over all I'm not experiencing SOD, the WiFi connects and stays connected. It takes a few tries at first but once it connects its good to go.

Also, I will look in to a few more tweaks to the CPU. Maybe we can get cpuconfig installed. Also, its time to start looking at the browser and music. I would like a browser similar to what the 3d uses and there is a possible way to impliment a sound buffer system to mimic beats until we get a sense ported over.

Maybe its time we start thinking outside the box to get premium sound. It's gonna he a stretch but there's got to be a way to impliment sound buffers. Seeing how we don't have soundimage, we need to be creative.
