While I have had wifi issues when tethering, it isn't a common problem for me. Occasionally, I've found that the WIFI is picking a 169.x.x.x private IP for some reason. It seems as though my Nexus S might somehow be at the root of that. When I restart both my Nexus S and my TouchPad, then it works again. I haven't noticed the problem when connecting to access points, using networks both at home and at work.

i've been running android on my touchpad since cm7 was first released. ive updated ever time a new release was posted. i've had pretty good luck overall as far as not having any major issues. well, a friend wanted me to update his tp from cm7 to cm9. installed cm9 through cwm recovery and booted fine but it would randomly crash and reboot (i never had this issue). so i back-tracked and removed android completely with acmeuninstaller, and re-installed it the recommended way but same issue. this was driving me nuts. i was beginning to think it was a hardware issue. so i go into the webOS side and notice it's still on version 3.0.2, so i decided to start fresh and remove android, upgrade webOS to 3.0.5 and try again. everything is working great now, no issuses on either side.

i thought i'd share this experience to you guys because maybe there was a conflict with cm9(cm7 was running fine) and older versions of webOS since the kernels share the same directory. i don't know how or why and maybe it just needed a clean start on both side.

btw: during the process i created batch files to run acmeinstaller2 or acmeuninstaller. makes the acme process a double click so saves a little time and you don't have to remember what to type in to the cmd window :)
[TouchPad Development] ingenue007:

I use cminstall2 to flash CM9 0.6 on top of CM7 but had market & gmail app crash, no google account in setting. After some reading, apparently cminstall2 skip Gapps zip file that I put inside cminstall folder. I had to reflash CM9 0.6 with cminstall2, then immediately first boot to recovery to flash gapps_ics_4.0.3_v11.zip

Then market app would work and let me add my google account from there.

make sure you are not using other kernal such as bricked.

flash 0.6 again using cwm, clear everything after flashing.

[TouchPad Development] mkosem:
Anyone else seeing weird load spikes from the "Android System" process? It seems to spike every few seconds, enough to push the CPU to the Max power state. I saw some articles from December mentioning similar behavior on nexus s devices. Maybe just an ics issue at this point? Seems to have somewhat of a negative impact on battery life.

--Matt
[TouchPad Development] mkosem:
Did a bit more investigation and found, with top, that /system/bin/netd is what's consuming all the resources. Anyone else seeing this?

--Matt
[TouchPad Development] bline007:
I haven't noticed any from the system a few apps don't close all the way all the time . I got watchdog app and i just close them out with that when they do. I'm not one for a task manager but WD let's u see everything running . If u have rom toolbox u can do the same thing
[TouchPad Development] mkosem:
Watchdog only properly shows the apps running within android. Netd is a system (Linux) service. I can only see evidence of it running with Linux tools in the shell. It appears to be consuming ~50% of one core almost constantly.

Interestingly, freezing Network Location, rebooting into recovery, and clearing dalvik/cache (the last two probably weren't necessary) seems to have stopped it.

To check if you're seeing the same thing, you can launch a terminal and run this (the extra parameters are needed because the keyboard doesn't seem to control top properly):

top -m 10 -n 1 -s cpu

[TouchPad Development] mkosem:
It's a few posts back. Freezing or removing "Network Location" seems to take care of it.

Edit: maybe not. The issue seems to pop up randomly after that too. Disabling/enabling wifi seems to shut it up for a bit, but not permanently.
[TouchPad Development] mkosem:
Well, I'm not sure what netd's role in the android ecosystem is but renaming/killing it seemed to have resolved all of my performance issues without any apparent loss in functionality...until I tried rebooting. It seems the bootup process must depend on it.

Mounted the system partition in WebOS with novacom and put it back for now. It's somewhat of a frustrating issue though.

--Matt
[TouchPad Development] chaudha4@hotmail.com:
Same problem for me in all alpha builds ( 0, .5 and now .6). The only way I get it charged is by booting into WebOS. I have even changed WebOS to be my default in moboot so that it can auto boot into webOS when my battery fully dies and I connect it to charger. You can use cyboot to do that. Hope this problem gets fixed soon.
[TouchPad Development] sean is here.:
With Alpha0 there came a charging and UI fix. here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1452328

Are you guys doing a complete data wipe and cleaning the Dalvik cache on install?

I haven't had this problem, since A0...and the charging/UI fix took care of it.

Another thing you could try...charge to 100%, then boot into CWM and under the advanced menu, clear the battery stats.
[TouchPad Development] mkosem:
Well, I pulled the netd executable from CM7 and haven't been able to reproduce the issue with it so far. It generally appeared after turning wifi on and off a few times and/or going through the settings menu (just navigating through it). So far so good *fingers crossed*.

--Matt
[TouchPad Development] chaudha4@hotmail.com:
Yes, I did a complete wipe, dalvik cache clean on all my upgrades. I have not cleared the battery stats though. I did apply the charging fix on A0 but not on A5 or A6 as its already fixed in those builds. I will try battery stats wipe, but I doubt that will make any difference. BTW CM7 charged just fine. So its CM9 specific issue.

I have the touchstone charger and it works fine with Alpha 0.6, I did a full wipe and dalvik wipe too, so DK if that did the trick but as I say, it works fine here...

[TouchPad Development] arkay71:
Rebooting in Alpha 0.6 with the power button - how?

Alpha 0.6 is absolutely stunning! Only thing I can't work out is how to reboot without doing the full hard reset. On XRON Beta I could simply do a long-press on the power and get the usual reboot / shutdown options. Apologies if I'm being sloooow.

Any pointers gratefully received - I've searched and read the OP but to no avail...
[TouchPad Development] sean is here.:
On my pad, with a long press on the power button I get a reboot/power options menu.

On reboot, we are taken to moboot, but that is just so. It must be. That's where you can select to boot into webOS or CM.

Are you sure that it's doing a hard reset on you? That would mean you're losing apps and data. If that's the case, you should wipe/factory reset and reinstall. Be sure to also wipe the Dalvik cache (under advanced settings in CWM).
[TouchPad Development] androidmonkey:
In the OP, the apps are listed but it doesnt explain what they are for, if you need them. Some of the OP still refers to alpha 0.

Besides GAPPS v11, is any of the other things needs? LCD Density modder, what is that?
[TouchPad Development] sean is here.:
Chainfire 3d is good.

Try the LCD Density modder, it's a matter of taste.

I'm in a hurry so I don't really have time to answer these questions. It's pretty obvious what Nova and CM9 music are, I think. The rest you can find explained more thoroughly at rootzwiki.:D
[TouchPad Development] b.huss2:
1) gapps - a must have. android market and other google stuff, the market being the main benefit.

2) NOVALauncher - not required but a great alternative home launcher replacement.

3) cm9 music - not required. music app i guess, i've never used it so i can't comment on it.

4) Chainfire3d - not required. some use it if they are having problems running a particular game/app and need additional video drivers to do so properly. i haven't used it since i've been on cm9 but i used it in the past to fix graphical issues with certain games and also add ability to run games designed for other video platforms (ie. tegra only games).

5) lcd density modder - not required. i've never used it but some prefer to run different lcd density than provided by stock cm9. lowering density makes things on the screen smaller thus providing more real-estate on the screen. altering this can effect app compatability.

hope this helps.
[TouchPad Development] androidmonkey:
Thanks.

I am coming from alpha 0. Can I simply flash the .6 zip from CWR or do I have to use Acmeinstaller2?

Is there a way to mount the TP in windows as a drive? I only get the MTP popup and it ask for drivers in WinXP 64bit. I am only able to mount via drive in CWR.
[TouchPad Development] b.huss2:
have you turned mounting on in the storage settings? when you go into settings>storage, the advanced settings tab in the top-right corner of the screen. if you have, then i'm not sure. mine mounts fine on win7 x64.
[TouchPad Development] androidmonkey:
The only option is "Media device (MTP)" and "Camera (PTP)"

When I hook up to WinXP 64bit, nothing happens under MTP. When I choose PTP, a window pops up with only the camera folders.
[TouchPad Development] b.huss2:
yea turn on mtp. that's what you get with honeycomb or later versions of android from what i understand. if your pc isn't seeing it then it could be a driver/cable/port issue. it may just take a couple minutes for your pc to pick it up the first time. plug it in and wait a few and see what happens. you running stock CM9 A0.6 right?

running CM9 A0.6 and won't charge

{Posted this in general section and didn't get much feedback.}

I can't get my touchpad to charge.

I believe it has something to do with booting-up with the charger plugged-in.

If I boot-up when it is not plugged-in I can subsequently attach the charger and it will charge.

However if the charger is plugged-in during the boot-up it will not charge and will eventually completely discharge.

It then becomes impossible to re-start cos you are forced to re-boot whilst charging....with the consequent inability to charge.

Catch 22

I'm now stuck with a touchpad with no charge that I can't re-start!!
[TouchPad Development] sean is here.:
First make sure you're using the supplied cable and charger. Beyond that I don't have much to add. I would probably try a clean install, wiping cache/partition/dalvik after using webOS Doctor. There was a charging fix on CM7 but it should be irrelevant on CM9.

When you get charged, fully to 100%, go into advanced settings in CWM and reset battery stats.

Just flashed to .6 a couple days ago and I'm experiencing this same issue. This wasn't happening with .5. Also, I did a clean install.
[TouchPad Development] Magikman74:
I stand corrected. I have two touchpads, both with .6 on them. Neither were charging. I swapped their USB cables and they are both charging now. One of them is actually charging from the computer USB port. It's USB3 so not sure if that has an effect. Until now I've not had any luck with that.

And before anyone says it, I did try to unplug and then plug back in the USB cables, multiple times. Not sure why the swapping worked, but that gift horse can keep his mouth shut. :)
[TouchPad Development] sean is here.:
The TP does have a higher draw than most USB charged devices, so while USB3 seems to work without a big problem...USB2 won't charge very well at all.
[TouchPad Development] rgwebster:
re: charging issue

I'm still having difficulties. Its a major problem if I let the touchpad completely discharge, since it will then only re-boot whilst charging and hence not charge from that point onwards. If I manage to re-boot with the charger disconnected I have no difficulty charging from that point onwards.

Does anyone have a more elegant fix for this?
[TouchPad Development] ankorez:
yeah thank you very much
[TouchPad Development] chaudha4@hotmail.com:
I had the same problems in .5 and .6. It seems to have gone away after I did a battery stats wipe. But I am not sure if that really did it because I am sure I did battery wipe when I went from .5 to .6 and charging problem was still present. But you can try that a few times and see if it help you.

BTW you may want to change your default boot to webOS so that when the battery is completely discharged, the system will boot into webOS when you connect the charger.
[TouchPad Development] rgwebster:
Thanks for that idea re my charging difficulties. I have installed cyboot in webOS and this should prevent me getting stuck with a flat touchpad. cheers!
[TouchPad Development] promiseofcake:
You can also always use novacom to boot with a different file. For instance you can boot the TP with a local copy of moboot if the one installed isn't working.

novacom boot mem:// < moboot.uImage (for example).

[TouchPad Development] bline007:
Have you tried just installing the old gapps? You can also try extracting both of the apps that are not working from zip and place apks in /system/apps. Be sure to clear dalvik and cache first. switch to read and write using root explorer and then reboot. If either one of those hasn't worked. You can also uninstall not working apps, clear cache and dalvik, then move apks to /system/apps and click on them. To install. Some apps have two apks so make sure to check
