I've been using it since the day Alpha 0 came out, and couldn't be much happier with it. The WiFi is a little wonky if I don't turn it off before I turn the screen off, but CM7 was the same for me. The video acceleration is a little off when doing things fast, but for all the video watching and game playing I've done (and my kids have done) it has not caused any problems.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] tselling:
I would say the HP Touchpad is a great choice. I have two of the 16GB that I got direct from HP for $99 each them running CM7. I mostly use them as photoframes and use an HTC Evo View (32gb onboard storage) or HTC Flyer (16GB onboard storage) for daily useage. But the HP touchpad has the more development. There is a fair amount of dev for the Flyer, but not much development for the View but after installing VTLauncher and rooting and installing NoLock I am satisfied. I have also owned the Nook Color and Nook Tablet... but sold them once I tried a Flyer ($199 refurb) .... and then a View ($239 new). The NC or NT are both nice you are primarily looking for a reader with a few tablet functions. The Nook Color has more development but the Nook Tablet is noticeably faster. BTW I actually prefer Gingerbread to HoneyComb on the flyer and view. They have hw buttons for home, back, menu buttons so don't have to lose any screen when in full screen games but you lose the HW buttons in HC.

Never heard of ESPOW...

I decided on an HP Touchpad. I mean it's a $500 tablet and I was able to pickup the 32gb one for $190 shipped on EBay. I could have got a 16gb model for $170 but since it doesn't have a MicroSD card I decided more internal storage is best. I've seen CM9 running on my boss's HP Touchpad and it's quite stable, only 2 issues are Camera and Microphone but they work fine in the WebOS side.

This will hold me over until the $250 Asus with the Tegra3 comes out in a few months, or the Nexus Tablet for $150 comes out. I then may buy another tablet, if I found it useful enough, or just sell the Touchpad and pay the difference to get the upgraded Asus.

Thanks all for the advice though. I was down to the Kindle Fire or HP Touchpad and the HW is far superior in the Touchpad. The Kindle Fire though was cheaper/smaller/thinner/lighter and may have been a better option for my 2 year old who loves to play Angry Birds but the touchpad's hardware and fact that the wife would be using it a lot as well drew me to the touchpad.

So I managed to almost brick my GNex (Verizon CDMA) last night, it was stuck in a "Encryption Unsuccessful" loop. I was able to get into CWM however a wipe data would not mount /data even after format. I managed to get the phone booted up after flashing stock boot,system and userdata imgs. I now have a ROM installed (Codename Android 1.5.5), problem is now my SDcard capacity shown in CWM as 13136MB, in ADB Shell running 'df -h' shows Userdata with 13.3G size, is there a way to re-partition this to make use of the space that there?

When in parted for the userdata 'device' it shows the device to be 30.7GB in size. Im just a little nervous to bork my GNex again (or permanently)

Thanks in advance for any info.

I currently have an HD2 running CM7 and was considering updating to the Beta of CM9.

I was wondering what the significant improvements of switching were?

Is there a big reduction in battery life vs CM7 and how smooth does it run comparatively?

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Nigeldg:
I haven't used CM9 for more than an hour but I can safely say that there isn't any real difference in battery life. However, the reason I stopped using it so quickly was the speed. CM9 is excruciatingly slow, after being on a CM7 build. ICS was meant for higher-end devices, and it shows unfortunately. It's usable as a daily ROM in the sense that everything which you really need works, and the speed is fast enough, but I would most certainly not recommend upgrading from CM7 to CM9 :)
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Fox_in:
CM7 - stable (could work for weeks without rebooting), very fast, most current apps supports it

CM9 - sometimes self-reboots, some apps throws exceptions, a bit laggy (ex. youtube app), no HW-acceleration for now

seems on CM9 works a bit more time at one charge (ex. CM7 = 1daylight, CM9 = 1daylight+night, but not completely sure)
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] mikalovtch:
Cm7 better because Cm9 drstupny not all the features that are in the CM7. Hopefully with the advent of official drivers, everything will change
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Glebaka:
why not to use AOKP not cm9, AOKP is more functional then cm9 for now

for me why im not using ICS anymore (used icecreamtoasty rom)

-scrolling is not very smooth

-laggy multitouch

-no HW(no flash etc)

need just wait for 1/2 year and everything will be ok

[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Stillkrazy:
Hi, I am looking into getting myself an Android tablet next week and had my heart set on a Motorla Xoom, simply because the price (£279) appears to be the best value around for the spec of the tablet.

One thing that is starting to put me off is alot of people are telling me that the Xoom is 'really heavy'. Now i've read the weight compared to other tablets etc but it doesn't really tell me if the weight is a turn off.

I appreciate if you guys could comment on whether you find the weight of the Xoom to be a hindrance, do you worry about dropping it? is it uncomfortable to hold for browsing the net etc.

Where is the extra weight coming from? is there a bigger battery?

many thanks in advance, the alternate option i have at the same price level is the Galaxy Tab 8.9 which is at the opposite end weight wise, but lacking in storage/screen size etc.

cheers

[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nadiros:
Eh - I Love my Xoom, but in answer to your questions....

Yes, the Xoom could be considered "heavy" as compared to some other

tablets.

Xoom - 708g

Galaxy tab 10.1 - 565g

Acer Iconia Tab A500 - 730g

I don't find it heavy but it feels solid for sure. Has mostly a sturdy aluminum body

Maybe not a one handed tablet but I for one appreciate its build quality - a big factor in me buying it.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shaunbrookes:
Its definitely a bit heavy, can't deny it. But i love it and it doesnt put me off it. Plus for that price its by far the best option
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Asphyx:
Yes it's heavy but I personally like that feel from my units.

The only knock on the weight is you will find it difficult to prop it up without some sort of stand or case that supports it.

But considering it is a google experience device, has an unlocked bootloader and is now cheap as far as tablets go I wold buy another one today if I was buying my first tablet!

The only knock I have with the unit has nothing to do with the unit at all!

I just can't for the life of me understand why the HD Speaker dock has every port but a USB on it! Has Power, and HDMI but no USB sync port!

The only other unit I have reccomended was the Transformer series for those who want the laptop experience but the ability to have the tab experience as well!

Asus did a good job on that design but the locked bootloader was a no go for me!

Other less savy folks it's fine but since your posting on XDA I would assme you want to make it into a coffee maker as well! LOL
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Stillkrazy:
thanks very much for the replies!

it seems that owners of the Xoom don't have buyers remorse then with regards to the weight of the product :) , which is the only drawback i could see.

I also thought it very strange that the dock(s) dont have usb connections, strange decision that from Moto, especially since it appears the dock uses the micro usb port when its lining up.

All in all the Xoom appears to be more than value for money, and with the standard dock (£18! on amazon) and keyboard (£20) at such low prices aswell, i could see them combining to replace my laptop.

thanks again, be on the lookout for a Xoom n00b hitting the forum next weekend ;)
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] princenoob:

I was in the same boat this tablet is awesome and I am glad I got it good build quality and as easy to play with as my galaxy nexus. I wish the front facing camera quality was a little better other than that this is an amazing tablet and I love it. Battery life is good too even clocked at 1.5 GHZ

[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Prack:
I will say the device is heavy but I always have it on my lap etc so it doesn't bother me. You will get use to it.

Now I will also add in that this is by far the best tablet to own period. I've rooted/rom'd a lot of different android tablets for co-workers and I can say that NONE have as good of a development community as the Xoom does. Fast roms, kernels, backtrack 5, ubuntu, even the USB "camera" adapter can be used for a keyboard/mouse/USB WiFi, USB thumb drives etc. Basically anything with a USB port will run on this thing.

Xoom for life dude.

Well, two days in and I've flashed the US from and been upgraded to ICS and I'm absolutely thrilled with the Xoom!

I need to find some good tablet apps though, and looks like I'll have to root it to get the BBC apps (should have realised that, lol)

I've not touched my Galaxy S since I got the Xoom.

For anyone reading later, I would say that, yes, the Xoom is on the heavy side, but the build quality and battery life easy make the trade off worth it. Still can't believe I only paid £279.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bigrushdog:
From a development point of view, the Xoom is second to none. I've had more fun developing on the Xoom than any other android device ever. Also, running ICS and a bleeding edge. 39 kernel, you have access to mobile technology nobody else has yet, such as WifiDirect. Truly, the xoom is at the forefront of android development, and Eos will continue to push the boundaries of Android reality.

[LG Optimus 2x] mrgian:
Hello everyone. I wanna ask what i've done to make my phone unusable. Here's what happened two days ago.

I have with me a LG Optimus 2x P990, running Android version 2.3.4. I have decided to root it using SuperOneClick. The root was successful. I wanted to try some custom ROM. So I searched on Google for some custom ROM and I picked the CyanogenMod; and I followed the steps written on the site (except for the rooting). I cannot post the link, go to "Google" -> search : custom ROM for LG Optimus 2x -> First link to appear that says "CyanogenMod Wiki". And after that, when I rebooted my phone, it was stucked up in LG logo. I did remove the battery and put it on again, and the same thing happened.

I don't know what to do and I am looking forward whoever knows how to fix my phone. Any reply will be appreciated. Thank you! More power!
[LG Optimus 2x] salisbury_steak:
Hmm... we might need more details.

What was the version of clockworkmod you used?

Did you do a nandroid backup?

Which CM rom did you installed (I tried googling you search word, but it didn't work, I dont see cyanogen wiki as 1 of my results)

Also, CyanogenMod's 1st boot takes quite some time. maybe 5minutes. How long did you wait?

On the bright side, this is just a softbrick. And your phone is still very fixable. ;)
[LG Optimus 2x] mrgian:
The clockworkmod was v4.0.0.5. I didn't do any backups. Uhm, since I can't post the link here in some circumstances, I have tweeted you with the link. Woot! Is it just a softbrick? (Phew!! Cross-fingers!) Hope this will be fix soon. :(

[LG Optimus 2x] salisbury_steak:
If you were able to successfully install CM, the LG boot will not be animated.

So are you seeing an animated LG or animated CM boot screen?

Also, how many minutes did you let it boot?

You get a animated LG logo after a successful cm flash..

First you get the white on black screen then with some blue stuff in the background... :p

Its an LG logo with a blue colored background screen. I think I only waited for 2 minutes or 1. And, as what you've instructed me last night to boot it up, and wait for 10 minutes, nothing's new, still the same thing happened. Stuck up on that part, until the battery drains.
[LG Optimus 2x] salisbury_steak:
Thanks for confirming. In that case, let's see if you can still flash the latest nightly...

Download the latest CM7.2 nightly from here: http://download.cyanogenmod.com/?type=nightly&device=p990 (It's the March 13 nightly)

Put that file in your sd card (You can use a card reader to do that in the meantime since you cannot boot up your phone)

Place the sd card back in your phone.

Boot directly into CWM. Do this by holding volume down and power. Do not let go until you see the CWM bootscreen. (Or once you see the 1st LG screen go away. Thing is, CWM boot screens are not animated, and may simply look like an LG logo with blue stuff behind it.)

Do the 3 wipes:

full (system) wipe

clear cache

go to advanced and clear dalvik cache

Install zip from sdcard, select your freshly downloaded CM7.2 nightly

Boot up

Report :D
[LG Optimus 2x] mrgian:
Uhm, my CMW bootscreen is that it has a guy, like a hiphop one. (hope you can picture it out). Does CWM 4005 still working?
[LG Optimus 2x] salisbury_steak:
Hiphop dude? By any chance... does he look like this?

If that's the case, I recommend that instead of flashing a CM7 rom, flash Modaco's GR ROM first.

Modaco's GR rom is here: http://android.modaco.com/topic/343...-optimus-2x-with-online-kitchen-stockvanilla/

After which, perform steps 2 onwards please.

That should at least get you to a working ROM. (And not a bad one at that.)

After that, you can try Modaco's ROM first, or we can move you to CM7 if you really want to.

---------- Post added at 06:21 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:15 AM ----------

Just in case you got overwhelmed with Modaco's post, search for the prebake line saying:

"Gr6 option pack 'vanilla edition' " You can download that one. (Pre-bake = free Modaco ROM)
[LG Optimus 2x] mrgian:
YES! EXACTLY LIKE THAT! Uhh, which one will I download in here? :confused:
[LG Optimus 2x] salisbury_steak:

[LG Optimus 2x] salisbury_steak:
Aww... in that case, (Unless somebody has another idea) I suggest a smartflash of a stock LG rom.

Hmm.. you might need to flash a backtoext3.zip.

I'm not in front of my PC right now, but I'm sure Temasek (you can search for him) has a mediafire link in his signature where you can download a backtoext3.zip.

Flash that first, then do the 3 wipes, then flash Modaco rom again.

[LG Optimus 2x] SP1996AC:
@salisbury_steak

I think the problem is the CWM version. I believe you need to have at least CWM 5.0.2.0 (the one from ROM Manager) to flash Cyanogenmod.

So you might wanna flash first a newer CWM, (preferably 5.0.2.8, not touch CWM!) and then try all over again with a Cyanogenmod ROM.

Thing is, he can't boot into his ROM.

Or... is there a way to flash newer CWM from outside the OS?
