Well I honestly can't answer your question regarding freeing up space using your MAC (dont use one) nor can I answer the sdk icon question but it was confirmed that going forward the team intends to build from source (that was a few pages back).

Although I am a Lurker (most of the time) I'll try to help with whatever limited abilities I have.

Once again THANKS to the team, although now I find myself constantly looking to score another TP to add to the collection...
[TouchPad Development] sigson:
Just a thought, have you tried deleting the files using root browser or a similar application? Or do they not show up to the TP?
[TouchPad Development] Beanchimp:
They don't show up at all in either 'droid or WebOS, but I don't know if they are stored somewhere in a hidden directory. Ive tried clearing cache etc. they aren't in lost.dir either

I know the question about source got answered and I guess the Cyanogen one got answered too

I know everyone especially the dev's are busy and the thread moves very fast and sometimes things get missed. But given how much everyone moans (on xda in general) about noobs constantly asking the same quesions they are are the ones that almost always get answered LOL
[TouchPad Development] herrdude:
Go to /etc and rename the hosts file. You will have to restart the hulu app and possibly reboot.

Enjoy!
[TouchPad Development] Krunk_Kracker:
This thread moves stupid fast, patience grasshopper.

I know nothing of Macs though, but hopefully someone else can help you.
[TouchPad Development] Leoisright:
What files are you referring to that won't get deleted
[TouchPad Development] advocate2:
Leo,

Another bit of help for the Team is on the way. 28C55925UF009633T.

Hits for this thread seems to be exponential in growth. Wow.

Since so many questions arise over and over again, a FAQ might be in order as a sub thread.

It is getting very exciting waiting to see the results of your new team. Aside from fixing audio and video glitches, I can't even imagine what the Team can come up with to make your Rom better than it already is.

By Luck and accident, I got six Tpads during the firesale. Four went to friends and family for free. I kept two for play. All owners send their thanks for their, now moded, very cool Tpads.

+1 for VTL, based on ADW launcher. I got the paid version which allows the side docks to be hidden of and on. If you could get the developer on your Team it would stunning.
[TouchPad Development] Leoisright:
Yeah, it's going to be lots of fun. I talked with them all last night extensively and can't wait for them to get them in their hands. You guys showed great amounts of support.

ETA on getting TommyT and Chubbz their tp should be around Monday-Tuesday, TMartin may be a couple days behind because the ebay seller wouldn't drop ship directly to him so it has to go to ewalk first, then he is 2day mailing it to him.

I was able to order all of the cases except for MiSfits mainly because he is in Japan. We are working out a way to have it sent over to him tho.

I really hate not having my TP. So much that I started working on ICS for the 3D. I took all our current scripts and put them in preludedrews aosp and see what we get. tick tock gang.

Thanks,

~leo

Quick direction to any fix for Google currents fc problems? Just came to xron 2.9 from plain cm 2.1. Had zero problems with currents before, now fc every few minutes .
[TouchPad Development] isanrap:
There has been fc problems with current from cyanogenmod v3 just let the app do the syncing and leave it for few minutes. That seems to stabilize the app for me. Though it fc from time to time.
[TouchPad Development] pgzerwer:
Thanks for the quick reply! Another quirk I found is tweetcaster won't connect to twitter. Any ideas on that one? Can live with other twitter apps, but was a bit used to caster.
[TouchPad Development] chicle_11:
Try uninstalling/installing, that worked for me.
[TouchPad Development] brooon:
Hey Leo! :)

As long as you are making such big efforts to achieve a holistic ICS style, just a small "styler-suggestion" from my side:

There is a dialer (including the contacs menue) called "exDialer" on the market for free. Combined with one of the two available ICS themes (for free as well) it IMAO really fits pretty nice into your build! Of course, the dialer itself is not pretty usable here...but due to the fact that I´m using the contacs app pretty often, I think this may be kind of interesting for others as well.

And just to clarifiy this in advance: Of course I am not the dev of exdialer, nor am I connected with him in any other way. I´m just impressed by its...ehm...beautifulness^^ (Didn´t like all the dialer alternatives in the past)

:D
[TouchPad Development] slam11100:

What I thought was funny was when I received his thank you email for my donation and I saw his "real" name and I thought to myself...No way is that his real name..sounds like a porn star name lol!
[TouchPad Development] spf2722:
Leo, if you are a porn star, you are the most talented porn star/dev i have ever known.... lol
[TouchPad Development] Joker Fuel:
Lmfao...

and for those who are wondering what Leo's real name is... donate, and find out for yourself
[TouchPad Development] Leoisright:
haha, i am a porn star....just only to my wife.

anyway, I sent out an email to all the beta testers from just a temporary email so we can consolidate them. I had 5 return and undeliverable so I will check spelling.

Please read the email and respond when you can. Give it about a half hour, please email me or pm me with ur email address so I can compare to our beta list.

Thanks again!

I have been posting and helping for quite some time on XDA and you can't take it personally. DO YOU REALIZE HOW MANY PEOPLE ASK QUESTIONS:eek:

Threatening with a "no donation" because questions aren't answered, hmmm really:confused:

OK Beanchimp since your comment, several folks have responded. Have you donated yet.

Point is, you didn't get the answers you were hoping for. This happens to all of us, including the dev's.
[TouchPad Development] domenci:
quick question, seems to have gotten lost in the mist since yesterday afternoon-

what are "sq mods"? leo seems to be the only person to have written that phrase, ever, on xda, and some of the installation instructions reference them.

Does anyone know why my battery life is so poor with android as opposed to webos when the screen is off? I turn off wifi on both of them when the screen is off, but in webos I get about 6-7 days of battery, whereas android it only lasts 2-3 days. Here are the graphs

They are a load (2000 ) of zip files, basically mame roms LOL

What I did on the mac (stupidly lol) is to move all the rom files to the correct folder, however the Mac OS doesn't move files as such, it copies them then deletes the originals once moved. I ran out of disk space ( I did all of this under Android) so I unplugged the TP from OSX and connected it to my Windows Laptop and 'moved' the remainder of the files

Now I constantly get almost no space left on the TP in either WebOS or Android, but as they were moved / copied etc in Android I figured that it may be holding onto the space in a hidden dir or something that I could just purge

---------- Post added at 05:48 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:40 PM ----------

OK let me just clear this up, I am not threatening with a 'no donation' maybe I should have phrased it a little better

What I meant was that I would like to donate, but if I ask something (several different questions and get ignored where is the incentive to donate, why should I etc. like I said I understand that everyone is busy and the thread moves very fast so things *can* get missed. There is also selective answering too

Im not asking the same repeated questions that others do. Im not taking a hissy fit or throwing my toys out of the pram because I haven;t had questions answered.

On another thread I am following on XDA every so many posts there is a please donate as we need servers etc post. The main person has thrown his toys out of the pram and basically said he is no longer contributing on XDA. That instance there is more or less begging for donations going on but if the main dev has thrown his toys out of the pram why should anyone donate ?

I won't be donating because I have now had a question answered. I will donate for other reasons like supporting the work / Devs etc :)

Aghhh I didn't make this a multi post, it should have been 2 seperate posts ! Not sure what has happened there
[TouchPad Development] Leoisright:
have you tried a file browser in webOS to delete them?

If not, maybe it's time you acmeuninstall, and start over with your android. The rom is so easy to set up

I just glanced at the email. But, I will take time to read it and reply.
[TouchPad Development] Beanchimp:
Yes tried in both 'droid and WebOs and connecting back to the PC and show all files etc but nothing

I am running 2.7 still as 2.8 just kept rebooting constantly so I know I will have to full wipe anyway to install the latest ROM

I have loads of stuff on the TP so I can move files off it, but I could do with reclaiming the 2Gb space back PMSL

When are you changing the paypal email address for donations ? so I can fire one over shortly
[TouchPad Development] TabletConnect:
5G vs. 2.4GHz

I noticed some people mention that they connect using their 5GHz band. I have a dual band router but am connected to 2.4GHz.

Is there really an advantage to the 5GHz? My understanding is that unless you are near your router, this may not work (for example, my router is in the playroom on the first floor but if I go to my bedroom on the second floor, connection may not be great).

Can someone comment on this?
[TouchPad Development] JSmurfy:
2.4 will be further as u stated..

i mean it basically is a statement that is correct..

it's not bad to use 2.4 or 5GHz..

just when i r close to the router u will be on a "faster connection"

due to being right next to it.. almost like hard wired in..
[TouchPad Development] Leoisright:
Honestly, I would just webDoc it back and spend the time setting it back up. Seems like you may have some underlying issues like the sdcard issue. I've had that and only thing that worked was a secure full restore in webOS and still then had to webdoc it back.

As of now, that email address will remain the same until the site is up and running where we can have a better location for all the necessary emails to be hosted. Still, all the money donated will be going to the team, so no worries there. I still have one case left to buy and ship over to japan for misfit but my just get his wife the money so she can send it over.
[TouchPad Development] Beanchimp:
Thanks

Is it the TP case the genuine HP one, if so I have 2 brand new spare (bought them in the last fire sale :))

I want to keep one of them though as a replacement for mine or my 4 year old son's when they get too tatty but I could always ship this over to Misfit as a way of donation ?

---------- Post added at 06:26 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:24 PM ----------

5ghz is about 30% less distance than 2.4ghz

2.4 ghz clear line of sight is about 100m on 1Mbps connection

5Ghz is far better if you need true N speeds and have other wireless around that is in the 2.4ghz band

5Ghz in busy areas you don't really need to channel manage as it is far less used :)
[TouchPad Development] Leoisright:
Yeah, i have 3 of those myself. we got everyone stealth armor carbon fibor ones. They were cheap... like $26 after shipping. I was looking for ones that will protect the case around the speakers. Unlike the stock one...lol

But you can send it to him in Japan, but not sure if he will give up the shipping address to the base where he's at. Hit him up in PM tho. Im sure just the gesture is more than enough bro.

Thanks,
[TouchPad Development] TonyStark R.I.P.:
In layman's terms 2.4 is for both web browsing and 5 is mainly for audio/video. While you can receive A/V on 2.4 the transfer rate w 5 is much higher. Your proximity has nothing to do w/ it. If you receive the 2.4 signal, you will for 5 as well. However on either band the closer the better
[TouchPad Development] ashton4life:
Hey Leo I just put on the Stealth Armor protector. I got the Tungston one and it looks great. It went on easy with the hair drier. The screen cover left a few weird bubbles, like the water is a bit trapped under. I may just take it off since I dont think I will scratch the screen easily, it was the back I was worried about laying it around. I got the 26 dollars shipped deal. If anyone gets it you better hurry because the sale is ending soon, the're normally 41 dollars shipped. Check it out. Here's the link for all if it hasn't been posted yet:

[TouchPad Development] TonyStark R.I.P.:
Please note that these are the kind of comments that can bring a post to it's knees. You have just gone full circle and used space in a dev section that should have never taken place.

Please do not waste dev space like this again! If questions aren't answered in the future pm the dev or others you see with good knowledge of the rom.

While XDA is lenient, this kind of banter is no place for dev sections. They will take action if you can't be more considerate of their rules.
[TouchPad Development] rwstarke:
Give it a couple days to clear up. The screen protector is permeable and bubbles will disappear.
[TouchPad Development] Leoisright:
Yeah...I'm gonna have the screen covered for sure. I'm excited to get the cover and know the team is too. I hope it helps the speaker are but doesn't look like it even covers that area.
[TouchPad Development] lowetax:
use system panel app end all tasks at night then screen off.

albeit that i don't have any tweaks to 2.9.1,

i turn display on in the a.m. and it maybe used 3 %

wifi is still connected and it's ready to rock n roll
[TouchPad Development] kopitekid:
These Stealth Armour covers look real neat... I'm gonna get my kids a couple!

However its $22 shipping to UK which makes these two cases $62. Do you guys think this is worth it or anyone know a better option from UK?

Thanks
[TouchPad Development] Beanchimp:
This isn't strictly true

2.4 is for any network activity, as is 5

you generally receive 2.4 much further than 5 (about 30%). it should be the other way round, if you can receive 5 you will receive 2.4

2.4 is swamped these days and the transfer rate can be the same, the frequency has nothing to do with transfer rate

I am using MX Player (with or without ARM V7) and have no pixelation problem in HD up to 1080p. However, the audio is lagging for a few seconds right after fast forward or rewind, and at 1080p the video sometimes freezes (probably waiting for data because the file is on a network PC accessed with ES File Explorer). I have not tried 1080p with local files on SD memory. But I saw the same freezing problem on WebOS.

BTW,my MX Player always uses SW decoder. It complaints no hardware decoder found! What did you do for it to use HW decoder?
[TouchPad Development] ashton4life:

No it doesnt cover the speaker side completely. I just protects the back from scratches when you set it down.

[TouchPad Development] Beanchimp:
I know if I do that it will definately clear the missing undeleted files LOL

At the time I installed 2.8 I didn't want to flatten and rebuild to stop the reboots, so I rolled back to 2.7 instead just as well really as 2.9 requires a flatten anyway :)

Im in no major rush to update anything at the moment as 2.7 is working great and have finally just got the iCade working with Mame :D
[TouchPad Development] ashton4life:
Well I just bought one of the carbon fiber skins 16.95 shipped. I'll save it for later.
[TouchPad Development] j.a:
The carbon fiber back from skinomi covers the back and all four sides as well as around the speaker. i applied it to mine and it looks pretty good. check them out if you have not ordered the skins already.

I had a StealthArmor carbon fiber skin.... ripped it off....

[TouchPad Development] dallas.maverick:
keep trying everyone, I was able to get 10 bucks back for my keyboard, so both Keyboard and Dock cost me 19.99 each, I think that's an awesome deal. Initially, I thought what the heck, tablets aren't meant to be used like this, but the amount of typing I do using the Toucpad and the need for a charge all the time, it makes it well worth it. If anything, HP should be thanking Leo for his efforts in reviving their hardware. Too bad they chose to kill it.

Any time I have a wifi isue I run that app and it fixes it. About the best answer to the wifi problem I have been able to find.
[TouchPad Development] kopitekid:
Yep been using this for a while and works for me too...
[TouchPad Development] method2madness:
I have done quite a bit of research and testing on this wifi thing, (and wifi in general) and have found (for my situation at least) that the TP running CM7 works best with routers containing the RALINK chipset (i.e. Belkin).

My WRT54GL containing a Broadcomm chipset was flaky at first, until I changed to channel 10. Once this change was made, I only got dropped once a day, or so.

And lastly, my D-Link DIR-825, containing an Atheros chipset was by far the worst. That thing would drop multiple times in a row just out of spite.

There's definitely something in the drivers that likes to give certain chipsets a rash of ****. But this is probably not going to be rectified in CM7 and may still be an issue in CM9, unless the devs can finally get Hp to release the drivers.

If you're still having issues, and are in a position to do so, go grab a $40 Belkin router from wal-mart and you shouldn't have any more wifi issues. (As long as you're connected to that router).
[TouchPad Development] lowetax:
with perhaps some gratitude to, er, CyanogenMod for Touchpad, too, ya think !

credit given...

i would venture to say, that with open source and the devs out there,

that we'll be taking advantage of moboot dual boot

and jumping over to webos more often than we do now,

just to see what goes on ...

This could be true but when I had xron 2.8 odexed I never got more then three seconds of a connection. After wyping cache and factory reset and acmeuninstaller I now have xron 2.9 deodexed running and I have yet to have a bad connection. If you think it has something to do with the router then why would it be working fine now. I am still using the same router. It is a Cisco/Linksys E1000. This wifi stuff has been puzzeling.
[TouchPad Development] arkay71:
Just flashed B2.9.1 odexed after factory reset / cache wipe and reboot into recovery. Awesome stuff but now can't get exchange connection... loses connection to server. Was working fine under B1.2 - rock solid. No it's not the server as working on other android devices. Any ideas? Searched the forums to no avail.

Any help much appreciated :)

(PS: Thanks for the stunning work on this mod - donated already to show a little but of practical support to XRON - 0D3950822D115940U and CM - 3HC59346RM6609621)
[TouchPad Development] method2madness:
I dont think it's the router. As I said previously, it has something to do with the driver. And certain routers communicate better than others. It's either a handshake thing or a direct-sequence spread spectrum (DSSS) (frequency hopping) thing and some chipsets deal with the errors better than others. Even to the point of being VERY random and sporadic.

This has been discussed to death here, including myself. ;) It basically bloils down to this: There's absolutely nothing Leo can do to fix the issue as it's inherent to the CM7 base and the wifi drivers. But!, if someone wanted a quick fix and has the means, Belkin routers work great with all the current CM& ROMs.
[TouchPad Development] treehumper:
Everything, including my TouchPad, connects better to my cheap Cisco router in comparison to my high-end Netgear (I still use my Netgear, though, it doesn't have to reach far). There's a lot to think about when you consider individual devices and wireless connectivity, not just the drivers. Here, drivers really are the primary issue since we don't have a stable HP driver to use as a basis but we get by. Since we're using a third-party knock-off we're looking at issues all around, but it actually does better than I had originally expected.
