You must have the novacom drivers installed on your pc for it to recognize the touchpad. DO NOT FORMAT. If you format the tp under windows, you will have a nice paperweight to add to your desktop. Google novacom. Get the drivers for the pc and everything will work as it should.
[TouchPad General] mayhem69:
I had the right Novacom drivers already installed. The system files got corrupted from pulling the plug earlier in the day. I talked to an HP tech through chat and he told me to format. I did, it doesn't format the whole file system, just the temp. files.

It was working and seemed to be back to regular, but then started acting up again. Pretty soon i was getting the palm.com/rom error code.

After the negative feedback i gave the previous rep. i received a phone call from a US rep. later that night. She is going to send me another TP, i am giving $150 for them to hold til i send mine back.

This thing is too damn buggy, i am selling it on CL. Sold already for $200, getting a Transformer Prime.

This thing is ****! I guess you get what you pay for.

thanks for the help, GEEK!

I have the same problem.. did you fix this by any chance?
[TouchPad General] mcsephoenix:
Try it on another computer first, make sure you are using the cable that came with it. Try after a fresh reboot of your pc... I know it seems strange but I can only get mine to work after a fresh reboot with the stock cable and the touchpad in a verticle position but it works...

One other question:

Why on My Documents, there are no files inside? Both PC and both TouchXperience
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sinister1:
If you are using a Nokia or an HTC phone like my self then it's because certain files have been blocked, white listed I think is what they call it. So basically with those files being blocked it renders WPDM useless. :mad:

[Kindle Fire General] jb0ne:
Since every method proposed in the thread over in the General forum to prevent updates doesn't work, even having custom TWRP recovery, i'm reaching out to the developers to ask for help on this. I suspect ADCP is involved myself but have no way to trace it.

What if I set /cache to read only? That apparently is where the .bin gets written to by whatever process downloads it, and from there it's read by recovery. Is /cache used by anything else on a typical Android system?

Not everyone wants to use CM7 but that appears to be the ONLY thing that "breaks" OTA updates. I'm sure there's some link in the chain we could interrupt to stop this creeping menace. I'm sure i'm not the only person with 6.2 rooted sitting here with wifi off!
[Kindle Fire General] brian112358:
Just a suggestion, but if you set the folder kindleupdates on the sdcard to read-only (it's where updates are downloaded to), would that break OTA updates?
[Kindle Fire General] neilrl79:
Unregistered fires will not get OTA updates. Renaming com.amazon.dcp.apk to com.amazon.dcp.apk.bak will unregister your fire but you will be able to sign into and use all of the amazon services individually.
[Kindle Fire General] bus_ter:
Somone just posted that their unregistered Kindle has been updated! There is no escape :eek:
[Kindle Fire General] JackpotClavin:
Somebody on 6.2 delete /system/etc/otacerts.zip and see if it still updates
[Kindle Fire General] jb0ne:
I just went to do that in File Expert, and I don't have a /system/etc/otacerts.zip.

Any other possible locations for that file? I'll try it.

Edit: Found it in /system/etc/security. It has a 1.6kb file called releasekey.x509.pem in it. Renamed to otacerts.bak

Edit2: Just to be safe, moved the file to my sdcard and deleted it from /system/etc/security. Rebooted ok, temp unrooted, Amazon Videos works, my books work, everything seems ok. Note that I am also one of those who disabled OTASilentInstall as well though that doesn't seem to have mattered for some.
[Kindle Fire General] neilrl79:
Interesting, I wonder if they recently unregistered it,after the update had already downloaded and was just waiting to install. My fire has never been registered and has never seen an OTA, in fact a couple of amazon techs told me that it was unable to be updated while unregistered. Although now that i think about it, I can't imagine amazon techs know anymore than anyone else
[Kindle Fire General] succulent:
Wrong forum... Rename /system/etc/otacerts.zip does help.
[Kindle Fire General] iDylan1357:
this would be great. at least then we could edit the binarys before updating to include FFF and TWRP.
[Kindle Fire General] JayceOoi:
Mine is still on 6.2 with these methods. :)

How to disable auto software update OTA on Kindle Fire?
[Kindle Fire General] jb0ne:
Yes, Jayce, but there are people reporting use those methods and still getting the update.
[Kindle Fire General] jb0ne:
I added another layer of protection, the program Droidwall. I allowed Amazon Apps and Amazon Videos plus a bunch of others but did not allow ADCP. Now if I browse to Amazon App Store, buy an app, it no longer pushes to my Kindle, despite the web page saying just go to the Amazon App store App on my kindle and it would download automagically. I had to manually initiate a download of the app. So either otacerts.zip or firewalling off ADCP disabled remote push of apps -- and hopefully disabled remote push of updates, that part remains to be seen.
[Kindle Fire General] zirooo:
new method

new method (not confirmed yet i think)

Kindle Fire 6.2.1 breaks root and you cannot re-root. To prevent this, simply install DroidWall. If you are afraid of downloading the update and want to keep wifi disabled, just do a google search for Droidwall.apk and sideload.

Once installed, launch Droidwall. Make sure the mode says "Mode: White list (allow selected). You will have to manually select which apps to give Wifi access to (I selected Email, Browser, Netflix, and Amazon Video on Demand). You should only select the apps you REALLY want to give access to. Then hit Menu and Apply Rules. Enable Wi-fi, and you should be good.

I tested while running Wireshark and watched the bandwidth according to my Tomato router - no more huge files being downloaded.

[Kindle Fire General] krelvinaz:
Has your log of the app shown you anything?
[Kindle Fire General] jb0ne:
Where does it log to?
[Kindle Fire General] LeetCompWiz:
This works if you rename OTASilentInstall.apk to OTASilentInstall.apk.bak and apply the rooted 6.2.1 update. NOTE when you apply the update you have to rename the apk again.
[Kindle Fire General] krelvinaz:
the app has a log file you can turn on. You view it via the app under more in settings of the app.

[Kindle Fire General] icebuck:
Hi, but just wanted to confirm will this work or will it still update??

Has anyone tried this?
[Kindle Fire General] dev/null/:
I was using the Droidwall method all day yesterday and today only allowing Netflix, Youtube, Pandora, Spotify, Onlive, Dolphin HD and Market Place wifi access and Just a few minutes ago my kindle was attempting to download and install the update while I was pushing a few apps and I did adb reboot and before it could finish and I'm still at 6.2 but now I've just disabled all wifi access which sucks.
[Kindle Fire General] icebuck:
Same err...My WiFi is off.

Until some solid solution is found to stop these forced updates.
[Kindle Fire General] dev/null/:
Well it appears I wasn't so lucky...every time I boot my kindle fire I'm greeted with the update progress bar that's starts out verifying then installing but I shut the kindle off the prevent it from finishing just in case there is a way to stop it. Damnnnn :mad:
[Kindle Fire General] jb0ne:
Just a reminder I realized myself -- Droidwall, even after adding to the whitelist, is not still not running, you need to go back to the menu and enable firewall.
[Kindle Fire General] krelvinaz:
You need to activate the log too, if you want to see what it going on.

With the log (and clearing the log), you can see what might be blocking something you are trying to do.
[Kindle Fire General] jb0ne:
I activated the log this afternoon; 4 hours later, only 94 blocked packets, to four destinations, one of them google (even though all my google aps are enabled). I went to get more and accidentally hit Apply Rules which appears to clear the log but I instantly got 69 blocked:

63 to 68.142.192.28 - Priority Netwroks [sic] Inc., Las Vegas NV. john.jones@prioritynetworks.net (Going to their website I can't tell why my kindle would be trying to contact these guys...)

5 to 207.171.166.117 - Amazon-com Incoroporated, Seattle, WA. noc@amazon.com

It didn't give an app name -- these were blocked as "App ID (kernel)"

Yes I know 63+5 does not equal 69.

It's the things that make you go hmmm.....

Edit: a few more popped up in the time I wrote this post a few more were blocked

74.125.224.178 Google Inc. x 4 packets, web browser takes me to google search

72.21.194.59 Amazon x 5, no web site

207.171.189.81 Amazon x 4, web browser takes me to aws.amazon.com

207.171.166.117 x 5, no web server

74.125.224.173 Google x 5, google search

I suspect the Priority Networks is providing bandwidth for amazon or something. All of these are from the kernel. Gonna reboot and see what if I get a burst on restart. Since Amazon has so many IPs, the idea of blocking one site, by name, in the hosts file seems kind of silly and I doubt it's affecting OTA updates. I'm still 6.2 rooted. I've heard Droidwall doesn't kick in until after startup and there's a window in which all data is not firewalled, so even with this I bet they could get the 6.2.1 on me through hooks in their kernel...yep, flurry of activity (134 packets total) on startup to IPs registered to Amazon and Google servers, some the same and some different from already listed. (50.16.52.147 - Amazon, web server but blank page; 173.194.64.141 - Google search.) There's no way to block the updates via hosts, they can come from damn near anywhere, and we'd lose Amazon services blocking entire netblocks.
[Kindle Fire General] cmbeid:
Simple fix would be to keep Wi-fi disabled before turning the Kindle off.
[Kindle Fire General] newboy78:
i have 2 xmas fires that were never registered that have not done either update and have been on and connected to wifi for days. so i would believe unregistering would work.
[Kindle Fire General] bluenadas:

[Kindle Fire General] bspisak:

Anyone tried it?

Found a couple of comments about this one as well:

Same question, anyone tried it?
[Kindle Fire General] Thare187:
I just used Droid Wall and have yet to get the update.
[Kindle Fire General] jb0ne:
I didn't rename it, I left it running and blocked it with droidwall. That didn't unregister my device.
[Kindle Fire General] meso100:
I am in the UK and will not get "complete functionality" with a kindle BUT if I bought one and didn't register it, presumably I could root and have no worry about amazon forcing updates to me? Is this confirmed?

Then I believe with a custom ROM it's just going to be like any standard tablet with no amazon browser/apps etc?

Thanks

You sort of ran into the same problem as the guy in this thread yesterday.

To sum up that thread for you:

1. Download a Gingerbread rom. Here are sone samples:

Octane

Valhalla Final

KJ6 AOSP Style

2. Use the Gingerbread Starter Pack guide to flash it without any problems.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] TJj33p3rz:
Yes been trying that Im here it says all threads complete but phone doesnt reboot to pull battery its just on the downloading screen still

4) Load up Odin, and load the KC1 files, DON'T TOUCH ANY OTHER OPTIONS, leave them like they are even if Odin changes them!

- 4a) PIT: Sgs4g.pit

- 4b) PDA: pda.tar.md5

5) Flash and let the phone reboot. Once you see the T-Mo startup screen (the pink one), OR the CWM (red text) screen do a battery pull.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] vgcraze:
Try pulling the battery after Odin is done and see if it boots up.

Edit: oh and unplug it from the PC when its booting up
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] TJj33p3rz:
Its just stays at the downloading screen lol im having the most heck of a time with this phone :o

Wish i could just flash from zip but keep getting that dang cant mount sdcard/rom name tried numerous sd cards reformat.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] stephen_w:
What version of ODIN are you using? Also, when usong ODIN make sure you don't mess with any of the checkboxes - just let ODIN decide what to check.

I'm not sure about the CWM error as I've not experienced that problem.

This method got my phone back this time but before i kept unplugging the phone from the cord and had 2 cords plugged into PC I kept switching back and forth then it recognized.Just messing around to see if i can find a way to get it to recognize in DL mode now and now it wont.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] bhundven:
Hmm, if you've tried every usb port on your computer, try a different computer.

Maybe you got some funky usb host device on your computer that the phone just doesn't like.

I have tried I have a Windows 7 and an XP I get the same.I just picked up a new cable to see if that works and still the same.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] TJj33p3rz:
Ok heres what I did I went into phone settings privacy and did a factory data reset

After that wouldnt ya know no trouble recognizing PC at all with any cord I had.

So I did this http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1358498

So this obviously did something :-)

I didnt run the bootloaders and already closed the program out.Do I need them?Can I just redo it all first flash then flash again with the bootloaders?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] TJj33p3rz:

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] darkinners:
I am currently using gs2 and in love with the galaxy note 's massive screen.

One of the main reason I love gs2 was the extremely snappy user experience, no matter how many apps I open. It never slows down.

One thing I worrying about the galaxy note is that has the same snappy response like gs2 does? I read on some user reports on internet. Some says the galaxy note sometimes laggy and feel sluggish when you open few resources hog apps. Maybe not enough rams?

any input from experience user who switched from gs2 to galaxy note are appreciated.:) thanks
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Souai:
galaxy note has the same amount of ram, it just doesnt seem to maintain the same amount of free ram, at least not on the stock ROM.

when i first booted up my galaxy S2, it had 550mb free ram. when i first booted up my note, it only had 300mb or so of free ram. swapping launchers helps it a little.

but for the most part, a few apps will be fine. launch too many and gingerbread will manage the ram by dumping some of the unused apps.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Souai:
alternatively, wait for ICS in q1 2012, and take advantage of the fact that it lets you freeze bloatware without rooting.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] robertsydbrink:
I got em both and yes the GNote was a little sluggish with the stock software. But with the stock KL3 its a huge difference for me. Its now as snappy as my S2.

The only thing i notice is that scrolling in some settings lists and such can be choppy sometimes. And between homescreens if you have loads of widgets and shortcuts. But with ICS i think this device will be flawless (if you have big pockets :))
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] SeanX:
I have had my note for about a week. I have updated to the latest ota update (KKA) and installed all my programs from my GS2.

I have no noticeable lag. Scrolling is fast and fluid and it seems as snappy as the GS2.

Anyone with the VZ Razr have free wifi tether after rooting?

EDIT: Also check post #15
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Helmoot:
yep, I forget the guys screen name but do a youtube search for razr wifi hack...very easy!!!!

I followed his directions and I paid for the sqlite editor app he recommends (I think it was $2.50), but I'm sure there's freeware...

after the quick hack it allows you to use the preinstalled mobile hotspot or USB tether functionality or you can download the wifi tether apk
[Motorola Droid RAZR] bb12489:
Currently the built in WiFi tether when hacked with sqlite editor will only work in USB tether mode. Wifi tether isnt 100% Alot of sites just fail to load for what ever reason. Maybe this has changed now, but when I changed the entitlement check on mine alot of site just would never load over wifi, but worked great over usb.

I just followed the same guide from when I used sqllite on the Bionic and it has worked spot on ever since. Mine has been 100% no messed up pages as others have reported. Just change your Entitlement Check to 0 and reboot and you should be ready for Free Wifi Tethering ;-)
[Motorola Droid RAZR] bb12489:
I did actually use the built in WiFi tether as well as the wifi tether apk and both of them showed the same issues with not loading certain pages correctly. However I never fixed the permissions since it was never mentioned to try that. Once I get my new razr on friday i'll give it a try.

I think though that its something with how the data gets routed from the 3/4G chip to the wifi chip. When any of you have been wifi tethering with either application, have you been on 3G or 4G data? perhaps this is the issue? I've been in a 4G area trying to wifi tether and having it fail, but I have never tried on 3G...

Also I wonder if after the OTA update that the results will be different? can anyone confirm this yet?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Mobalized:
Is anyone else getting the message "tethering or mobile hotspot active" in the notification bar when using the wifi tether apk? My X never displayed this notification when using wifi tether.
