Go to /system/etc. And rename hosts file.

Good luck.
[TouchPad Development] Leoisright:
Heavy hitters are working on it now. Thanks to preludedrew...we found kernel source. Myn, Tommy,CHUBBZLOU, and myself should get a lot done today
[TouchPad Development] herrdude:
Double-post.
[TouchPad Development] WildKun:
Maybe this question was asked alreade, but I didn't find.

2.9.1 is last CM7 based version or there will be one more and then you will move to CM9?
[TouchPad Development] Beanchimp:
I may be completely wrong on this one but CM9 isn't out with no release date as ETA's are never given nor should be requested :D

Also I believe Team Xron are looking towards moving away from CM, or removing as much CM stuff as they can
[TouchPad Development] TonyStark R.I.P.:
Hey Leo, I can't find if you ever did a follow up for this... Or are the steps in op the only recommended?:)
[TouchPad Development] Krunk_Kracker:
Add far as I am aware, they have split the team up. Some are still working on cm7 while the others are focusing on getting another port of ICS ported that ISN'T CM9. We're going to have two different versions of ICS for our Touchpads, woot!
[TouchPad Development] TonyStark R.I.P.:
camon guyz, lets push leo past 3000 thanx
[TouchPad Development] method2madness:
6 out of my 8 today have been to Leo. :)

(no homo)
[TouchPad Development] TonyStark R.I.P.:
Im at 25 w/ XDA app
[TouchPad Development] method2madness:
Yea. I keep forgetting about that. Imma start using it more.
[TouchPad Development] detdett:
I tried using xda app but I keep on getting fc. Anyone else has the same issue?
[TouchPad Development] TonyStark R.I.P.:
delete the app and reinstall it
[TouchPad Development] detdett:
Still the same error. Every time I try to browse this thread it force close on me :(
[TouchPad Development] willyjay:
Put my max thanks in for the day for him....almost there.
[TouchPad Development] isanrap:
Mission accomplished :-) Leo is past 3000 thanks now.
[TouchPad Development] TonyStark R.I.P.:
Awesome. It's the best we can do while we wait;)
[TouchPad Development] upsmanraz:
I haven't tried it yet, but read in the forum that the paid app doesn't crash.
[TouchPad Development] detdett:
It just amazes me how different the paid and unpaid version is. Talk about day and night!
[TouchPad Development] tommytomatoe:
And if you buy tapatalk its even better :-)

I might be wrong but the paid xda app is behind on a couple updates. Tapatalk has multi quote capabilities :-)
[TouchPad Development] Joker Fuel:
Tapatalk is still free on getjar I think. No force closing
[TouchPad Development] ewalk4866:
Tapatalk is free still if you have the getjar app store too :)
[TouchPad Development] Moshe5368:
I use nothing but tapatalk so I was confused about the post counts I was seeing in various posts until I tried the web version of xda. Now I see what's going on. I use tapatalk because it standardizes input throughout all of the forums I am on. Makes things simplier.
[TouchPad Development] systoxity:
Complete wipe and reinstall following instructions from the first post to the dot.

Thanks again for the rom op!
[TouchPad Development] Leoisright:
Beats audio isn't an apk. That would be nice. It's all in the framework, htcmusic.apk, etc for beats bins, libs, bins, Soundfx. Its in thru out the system. So its about 99.9% impossible to impliment beats in aosp. But, we can try to get the buffers in there and tweak things to try and get beats effect.
[TouchPad Development] newarkhiphop:
edit: crisis averted
[TouchPad Development] mrksbrd:
Just a fyi.. If anyone is having flash issues, uninstall the apk from system/app folder. Reboot...then download/install 10.3 all should work well now
[TouchPad Development] Gack69:
I flashed the tester yesterday and have not had a single issue it yet. Loving it! Would I be more helpful to the cause to keep the tester and run with it, or flash this latest build?
[TouchPad Development] vWvSTATICvWv:
As far as FB, download LBE Privacy Guard from the market and when FB asks for GPS permission, block it.

Leo, would I need to do a full wipe coming from 3.3 to 3.3.2?
[TouchPad Development] viny2cool:
Noob question..So i am on CM7.1 Alpha 3...can i just flash this using Recovery? No issue?
[TouchPad Development] peekeesh:
That's what i did and no issue so far.
[TouchPad Development] newarkhiphop:
yes wipe ONLY cache and wipe dalivk cache before i what leo recommends
[TouchPad Development] zcrugby:
when backing up/restoring from titaniumbackup should i do user apps + system data or just user apps?
[TouchPad Development] chicle_11:
I just did it - user apps worked for me.
[TouchPad Development] zcrugby:
yea i know user apps works, but sometimes i dont want to lose some of my system data so i was wondering if its safe to restore that aswell
[TouchPad Development] chicle_11:
When I want to do a full restore I usually do it from clockwork, but I do a backup every day. I delete the oldest bu when making a new one, if not you lose a good bit of space on your hd.

I figured that when using titanium, choosing just user data would save time.
[TouchPad Development] zcrugby:
yea i used to do that as well when i had my atrix. oh well just bought titanium pro and have it syncing with dropbox so i guess i shouldn't have to worry about loosing anything anymore.

other question tho, this noAd thing, is there a way to add an exception if i want ads to load on a particular cite?
[TouchPad Development] Leoisright:
No, just wipe dalvik should be fine.
[TouchPad Development] wondercoolguy:
wow moving your rom has destroyed my battery life. I have done zero on my tablet since I pull it off the charger at 6am it is now 2pm and its already down to 50%.....I looked at battery usage and the Android OS was crazy.... rebooted into webos....
[TouchPad Development] Leoisright:
Wow, I use my for 6 hour listening to music, online, and more. Still more than 50%.
[TouchPad Development] lay_forat:
just Google it all the touchpad has different battery statics

by the way right now i am on official alpha 2.1 i would love to try CM7 XRON-ified but the problem with official alpha 3 is 3d games graphics sucks like shadowgun, nfs hot pursuit etc... what about CM7 XRON-ified is it fine or same bug like alpha 3 ?
[TouchPad Development] jsjr1988:
help

flash is not workin for me, am i the only one?
[TouchPad Development] destroyer67:
Youtube plays audio with no video on portrait mode, but both audio and video plays fine on landscape mode. I have uninstalled and re-installed the Youtube app but still acts the same. Anyone else experiencing this?
[TouchPad Development] Moshe5368:
Hey, joker, nice boot ani. I have it going and it looks very nice. Thanks for the work.
[TouchPad Development] detdett:
Cool stuff! Im luv'n it
[TouchPad Development] detdett:
Is there support for HP touch pad ? I tried downloading an app from get jar but it couldn't find it?
[TouchPad Development] Joker Fuel:
thanks ! I'm bout 2 weeks into doing anything like this. It'll keep getting better!
[TouchPad Development] bluedogtouchpad:
Reverandkjr just uploaded a new install video. Just remember if you install Xron to rename the zip file to update-cm-xronified.zip

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IGY4gpsDPD8
[TouchPad Development] life:
if you do forget to rename the zip just boot into clockwork mod and mount usb, copy the zip over and then wipe and flash.

i just forgot to rename and this worked just fine.
[TouchPad Development] detdett:
The animation seems a bit slow... maybe that's just the way it is for the first restart

EDIT: it was just a first time thing. The animation is smooth and slick now ;)
[TouchPad Development] L33t Masta:
Having an issue where the weather app crashes when I throw this thing on the Touchstone.
[TouchPad Development] Joker Fuel:
Which weather app? I've had 3 or 4 different including spb on there and never had issues
[TouchPad Development] flashypants:
Just a quick post to say I'm still lurking around. Been hectic busy with the little addition to the family but been reading the thread every day or two.

Awesome to see so many Devs on the team now, getting very excited!

Can't wait to get that special email from Leo along the lines of

"click here... Xron_cream_sandwich_vB.4.0.zip"

Go Team Xron! w00t w00t!

Thanks all!
[TouchPad Development] Beanchimp:
Congrats on the addition, and thats strange as my version says 'Ice_Xron_Sandwich_vB.4.0.1.zip'

:p
[TouchPad Development] detdett:
Hahaha good one. Got me there for a sec
[TouchPad Development] Heart1010:
Don't know if the user with wlan problems tried this already. (read in rootzwiki forum)

(I don't have any problems with 2.9.1)
[TouchPad Development] NeWCuLTKiNG:
wow 580 pages I haven't been away that long. I have lots of reading to catch up on.
[TouchPad Development] sigson:
Try the link below, for some reason I couldn't attach the Apk.

http://android.modaco.com/topic/345804-patched-getjar-apk-works-on-any-device/
[TouchPad Development] detdett:
If only there were more people like you... this thread will be half as long

Thanks a million. Such a cool app.
[TouchPad Development] ItsDon:
Worked perfectly, thank you. Been looking for this :)
[TouchPad Development] TonyStark R.I.P.:
I may have missed something but I thought we couldn't use the touchstone while running an Android ROM.
[TouchPad Development] benfikaman:
I have been using the touchstone to charge the touchpad ever since the early versions, works great and no issues at all.
[TouchPad Development] Sychodrama:
No I did not. Im too stupid for that stuff. Ill just have to deal with the wifi looping.
[TouchPad Development] ItsDon:
Agreed, Touchstone works perfectly with 2.9.1.
[TouchPad Development] bmcgarry84:
I've been using my touchstone since day 1 without issue.
[TouchPad Development] herrdude:
What brand and model of router are you using? Most likely the ip address is 192.168.2.1 or 192.168.1.1.

Put that address in your web browser and the password is most likely admin, root, or possibly nothing.

Dig around til you find where to change the channel.

Good luck. If you get the model number i can give more detailed info.
[TouchPad Development] Krunk_Kracker:
Or 192.168.0.1
[TouchPad Development] TonyStark R.I.P.:
Agreed, what brand of router are you using... Linksys, D-Link, Buffalo?
[TouchPad Development] Beanchimp:
Some routers usually have the username and password on a sticker underneath, but then those ones normally make you change the password once you have logged in
[TouchPad Development] InferiorL3gion:
Netgear is 10.0.0.1
[TouchPad Development] scariola:
Standard is web browser address. 192.168.1.1

Username: admin

Password: admin, password or blank entry(no password)

Once in, look for wireless, wireless security, look for your ssid name and channel. Change channel to 1-4. Then save settings button, done.
[TouchPad Development] Joker Fuel:
Or 192.168.0.1 on some router setups.

If u seem to have gotten locked out of your router, try holding down the reset button pinhole for 30 to 45 seconds. Some router brands(dlink and Linksys that I know of) will factory reset all settings including user/pass. Then just Google your router to check what the default is.
[TouchPad Development] TonyStark R.I.P.:
While scariola instructions are great, PLEASE use Jokers ip of 192.168.0.1 to enter your router.

Netgear IP (cut and paste this)> 192.168.0.1 <

If you simply type this (or cut and paste it) to your browser bar it should bring you to your router. If it does not somebody has configured your router in a different manner. You haven't mentioned if this was a shared network, nor weather you own the router or not.
[TouchPad Development] lowetax:
if no wifi, go to your friend's or neighbor's,

and tweak your tp setup to see what works with their router settings.

(fyi write down what their router settings are)

as you want your tp to work when you can't touch/change the router/wifi signal.
[TouchPad Development] Beanchimp:
I was going to suggest a factory / pin reset but as the user has already stated they aren't very good at this sort of thing (stupid I think the user said) and if this is the only available internet connection then it might not be such a good idea

Alternative is to google the router to get default settings, manual, firmware update etc all 'before' any changes are made
[TouchPad Development] Leoisright:
Just touching base. We are all working from source. So it takes longer for the repos to get set up....
[TouchPad Development] virgilone2:
some 2wire routers are 192.168.1.254 with the 10 digit pw on a sticker on the bottom

Sent from my Xronified TP
[TouchPad Development] dallas.maverick:
For those of you that hate the default clock popping up everytime you put your Touchpad on the Touchstone dock, download an app called "Dock Nothingness" from the Android market. Makes it less annoying by ensuring your screen stays where you left it...
[TouchPad Development] eddieyee:
To get your router's IP address, do the following (assuming Windows):

Get a command prompt : start / run / type: cmd

in the "Black Box", type the following on the same line:

ipconfig | find "Gateway"

You should get some information with an IP address. eg below:

C:\Users\Owner\>ipconfig | find "Gateway"

Default Gateway . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.2.1

In your browser, go to the IP address. Example below:

http://192.168.2.1

Be sure to put the http:// in front, otherwise it may not work. As for default username/password, look on the router, or google your routers model. Defaults are usually: admin/admin admin/password admin/<blank (just hit enter)>
[TouchPad Development] Krunk_Kracker:
ipconfig will do they same and may be a little easier.
[TouchPad Development] method2madness:
Bingo!
[TouchPad Development] lowetax:
why does it seem like the emphasis here is on adjusting the router to work with the tp,

when you want the tp to work with existing wifi signal,

no matter where located (in your home, work and elsewhere).

besides your home (and maybe work), you can't go adjusting the router

(to work with your tp setup) in all those other places. (Starbucks, etc.)
[TouchPad Development] Joker Fuel:
we should start a router thread in the general section.... been talking about it for like the last 5 pages
[TouchPad Development] herrdude:
Who among us can code the approprate wifi driver?

So we end up changing the wifi channel, wherever possible, as this is the path of least resistance...

It's worked so far!
[TouchPad Development] method2madness:
I have a Harmony remote. I'm sure we can incorporate that somehow.
[TouchPad Development] Krunk_Kracker:
I've already started to put a FAQ together regarding setting a router up. Should be ready tomorrow.
[TouchPad Development] happyta5:
Wi-Fi problem may not just driver problem. Here is my experience, I'm using x2.9 odex for awhile & overlook it to 1.7g. At the beginning, it run fine. Router set are ch4. Eventually, more application & games loaded. SOME games crashed & I begin have Wi-Fi issue. Clean cache...reboot. never fix it. I restore it to Jan 7 & Wi-Fi work again. Right now I run it as 1.2g and will c how long it can stay stable?
[TouchPad Development] eddieyee:
That depends... if you have multiple adapters and lot of info coming up, this will get you exactly what you need versus a newbie sifting through the results of the ipconfig....

Either way, the resolution should be two fold... one is to address the conflicting channels, which will help wireless speeds in the house in general, but really, the root cause needs to addressed....

When I continually ping the touchpad from another PC it is very apparent how frequent the touchpad drops the wifi... I myself live in a relatively dense neighborhood, and I see drops regardless of the channel I am using.

I have a Buffalo router whr-hp-ag300h and running openwrt on it... I have also tried doing logcat on the touchpad and I don't see any stacktraces getting generated when it drops. Is there a debug mode or different location for the wireless logs, or any setting in the configuration files?
[TouchPad Development] rogabean:
Feel your pain. I have been trying to sync the repo all weekend. Keep getting errors. Think its my net connection though.
[TouchPad Development] kopitekid:
woot... Finally caught up 2.5hrs of reading.. Thats teach me to go missing for 3 days..

Sorry just had to say....
[TouchPad Development] Leoisright:
Ok....the source repo has finished syncing. Now on to building. Will be so nice going to build from source.

You guys have no idea how crappy the last couple days have been computer wise. Had to redo my entire computer twice....and 5 hours to set up repo from source.
[TouchPad Development] herrdude:
You may be right. I was over at webosnation and there is a 20-page thread on wifi problems in webos. So it may very well be a hardware problem.

Here are their suggestions.(try one by one to find one that helps):

1. Update firmware and/or hard reset router.

2. Avoid A and N bands (use B or G).

3. Take security down a notch (wpa2 to wpa, wpa to wep, wep to open)

4. Change channel until you find one that works (4 seems to work well)

5. Use these settings if your router allows for it:

change beacon interval to - 75

change RTS threshold to - 2304

change fragmentation threshold to - 2304

6. Boost signal or move closer to router.

From this forum here are complemetary tips (again try one by one until it seems stable)

7. Try a new router (some swear by Belkin)

8. In wifi settings, put wifi to never sleep.

9. In wifi settings, turn network notifications off.

10. In settings, rename device to something with letters and numbers only.

11. Open wpa_supplicant.conf in /data/misc/wifi and remove the offending network. Turn off wifi, wait 1 minute and try again.

12. In terminal type su and then rm /data/misc/wifi && reboot (this one is more scorched earth as it will delete all of your wifi network settings)

13. Boot into CWM or TWRP and clear cache and delvik-cache.

14. This is really scorched earth, completely reflash (cache, delvik-cache, factory reset three times). And start again.

If your wifi doesnt connect automagically, you can try a total reflash and it may work. Or you can install a widget on your desktop. Wifi widget or beautiful widgets has one. Then it's a simple tap to wifi freedom.

Good luck and solid wifi connections!
[TouchPad Development] Grizzy3:
Good luck! Hopefully you don't have any more computer problems.
[TouchPad Development] method2madness:
I suppose it's just like the wifi trouble on the android side, some have it and some don't. But I have yet to have any trouble with wifi in WebOS.

I am using a netgear router and have no wifi problems at all. I am also using the N band on the router. I also connect with the 5 ghz band with no wifi issues at all.

Here is the router that I use.

600 WIRELESS DUAL BAND GIGABIT ROUTER—Premium Edition WNDR3800
[TouchPad Development] InferiorL3gion:
Disregard steps 2 & 5. The only time I had wifi instability was due to a bad wipe or install. The best solution to this overbeaten discussed wifi problem is to change your wireless channel and update the firmware on the router. Fyi the android os base is still alpha so random unexplainable, touchpad out the window frustration is bound to occur due to an unstable base. Nothing you can really due about that.
[TouchPad Development] InferiorL3gion:
Same here. Tho I don't use webos that much.
[TouchPad Development] herrdude:
The list is a group of suggestions culled from the 550+ pages here and the 20 pages over there. I am not saying each point will help each person. But each point has surfaced as a solution at one point or another. So there is no purpose paring the list down because something didn't work for you but could in fact work for someone else.
[TouchPad Development] InferiorL3gion:
First of all everything works for me. Second there's no since in jeopardizing the entire wireless network for a single device. Also I'm not "pairing it down". I just simply stated that as my suggestion you should disregard 2 & 3, especially 3.
[TouchPad Development] aceytech:
Since almost everyone is discussing router/wifi issues and ignoring you, I just wanted to say thanks for your continuing efforts, especially given the rebuilds. Having just done a rebuild myself, I totally empathize with you. Looking forward to your new builds!
[TouchPad Development] herrdude:
Just a quick word to say that 2 and 3 have been used in this very forum as valid solutions. So disregarding them runs the risk of inviting more "my Wi-Fi doesnt work" posts.

Cheers!
[TouchPad Development] Leoisright:
got some headway....but got some stuff to work out. apps, framework, and few smaller stuff didn't compile right.

gonna do it agian. no biggie cause I already have those.

just a teaser of the build.prop

View attachment build.txt

Im hitting the bed...thanks for all the patience you guys have. jTomorrow brings new day, and more done. not bad, only logged 25 hours this weekend redoing my computer 2x's, touchpad, and repo/compile...lol

~leo
[TouchPad Development] tommytomatoe:
To piggy back on Leo I synced the aosp ics source today and built it. Sadly I had work before the compile finished. Heading home now to see what surprise I have waiting for me.

While I think ics is where we are heading...I think it will be productive also to put together a rom for the masses based on what's working (android 2.3.7) just so the masses have ssomething to play with. That said...I will be playing with both 4.0.3 and 2.3.7 simultaneously in the next few days to get something really fun out.

Can't say enough how much I appreciate all you sweet people. Also a huge thanks towards the people who have brought us the wonders of android on this here tablet - cm crew and evervolv. Lets not forget their ridiculous work :-) thanks guys.
[TouchPad Development] ItsDon:
Tommy! You made the only ROM I had on my Evo for more than a week, it simply rocked. On a different phone now but gotta say I am thrilled you are going to be deving for the TP. Folks who don't know of you will, soon. :D
[TouchPad Development] tommytomatoe:
Hola Don! Which phone are you rocking now? :-)
