[TouchPad Development] O.a.T.:
OaT's LNT GApps updated on OP. I'd recommend 1) wipe cache, 2) wipe dalvik, 3) flash the zip.

Also, GMail is now available in the market and as such has been removed from the standard GApps. So, I am removing it from the OP.

As an aside, I've moved to the latest version of TWRP for recovery, and although I'm still getting used to it, I very much like it's touch interface as well as the additional features it supports. Also, although I haven't tried it, CWM backups are reported to work with TWRP after moving them to the appropriate directory under TWRP. Finally, as a fallback, I created a flashable zip to take me back to CWM recovery, but have not used it so it is untested. If anyone needs that, LMK.
[TouchPad Development] dung8604:
Flash TWRP through goomanager app?
[TouchPad Development] O.a.T.:
I went the CWM flashable zip route.
[TouchPad Development] somanshmittal:
Hi oat! I must say that your rom is simply amazing. However, there is one problem. I dont know if its just me or if others r facing this as well-when i move apps from tb memory to sd card using app 2 sd pro, the sd card storage unmounts n i lose all my apps. This prticuarly happens when im almost done moving most of the apps and this problem is i think inherent from cm9 since i had the exact same fault i that as well. Os there a workaround this? Or any solution? Any help regrding this would be highly appreciated. Thanks.
[TouchPad Development] O.a.T.:
'Fraid the only thing I know about this is that there is a method to double (or more?) the size of your internal storage partition. Believe I saw it somewhere on a Rootzwiki discussion, but I didn't pay much attention to it as I was nowhere close to the limit of what I think is ~2gb. I'll take a look and see if I can find, and if so post a link here, but you're searches may be more effective than mine.

Got lucky on my search. Below is the link. Although it was written for CM7, the initial reference I found was in CM9 with comments that this works there as well. Still, you should check more thoroughly than I did. Hope this helps.

News section in OP updated.
[TouchPad Development] LinuxNewb:
The cornerstone project has been pretty quiet. I would suggest visiting their google group page to see if there's been any chatter.
[TouchPad Development] stunndd:
I just want to say that I love this rom. It's been very stable and fast, no problems at all. I'm also excited to see this rom with cornerstone. Keep up the good work.
[TouchPad Development] O.a.T.:
Yes, it has been pretty quiet over there for several weeks.
[TouchPad Development] wolfgr:
!!! sound fixed.... cornerstone!!!! omg ur my hero cant wait for this.
[TouchPad Development] O.a.T.:
Wow, what a brain fart! :o Had completely forgot that you need exchange to setup hotmail. "Installed" that, which is found on the OP along with directions on how to install (it's not a standard install) and was immediately able to setup my hotmail account.
[TouchPad Development] Kiersten_Kress:
I downloaded version A and B because I wanted to give your ROM a try.

After I flashed it and rebooted, it kept giving me a message that said the phone process has stopped... and wouldn't continue any further.

I tried re-flashing several times and still got the same thing. Finally I went back to CM9 and my Touchpad was running normally again.

What am I doing wrong? I'm using CWM when I flash....

Thanks! :)
[TouchPad Development] O.a.T.:
What wipes/formats did you do prior to flashing? You've only had CM9 prior to trying LnT?

Edit: Saw your post on CN. You were running CN and not CM9?
[TouchPad Development] Kiersten_Kress:
Sorry... I should have made it clear that I had three Touchpads in my family.

#1(16GB) was running CN 4.01 fine for over a month, bricked after flashing LnT. (have been working on it for the last three hours trying to at least put webOS back on there... but even the power/vol buttons are not responding to anything right now) but I can't really blame LnT on this one, as I have opened up this Touchpad up previously to install a replacement battery as well as a white shell.

#2(32GB) was running CM9. After flashing LnT, it keep giving me the continuous "phone process has ended" pop-up messages... flashed it back to CN

#3(16GB) untouched... always ran CN
[TouchPad Development] O.a.T.:
Re: 1. I suspect it is not bricked at all, rather the boot partition has been filled to capacity between the installs of CN and LnT, and of course the existing WebOS. Believe CN provides a boot partition cleaner on their classicnerds site. You probably need to use that and understand what state that leaves your boot partition in.

Re: 2. You still haven't told me what wipes/formats you did. And I quote, "was running CM9.... flashed back to CN". Again, which is it?
[TouchPad Development] O.a.T.:
But that is exactly what you did do on the CN thread. And I quote (copy)....

"Being stupid and bored today, I decided to give LnT rom a try. Unfortunately, LnT rom has bricked one of my three Touchpads at the moment. I have been trying to un-brick it without any success so far."
[TouchPad Development] swear0730:
Happened to me. Here's what I did.

1) Factory wipe.

2) System Cache Wipe and Dalvik wipe to be sure.

3) Install LnT.

4) Install OaT's "Light n Tasty" GApps. I believe its the lack of doing this that causes the problem.

5) Reboot the TP.

If done right it should bring you to the Google setup and ask you to turn on wifi, log onto your Google account, select timezone, etc.

At least that's how I remember fixing it.
[TouchPad Development] slam11100:
That's the process I use and no problems! By the way, not sure if Kiersten_Kress gonna be showing up here any time soon. Kinda been called out and what not.

Been lurking for a while and have run cn and cm9. Liked cn a bunch, and am really liking LnT. Have not flashed the update because I've been so stable. I never really had wifi issues (use it mostly at home with good signal) so can someone recommend whether I should try a or b first? I suppose I could try both and report back but what fun would that be?? Ha. Oat awesome work! Beer money coming! Cheers

Sent from og evo or tp running something these devs have cooked up
[TouchPad Development] dung8604:
any time I want to try a new rom, I backup and wipe everything (system, cache, dalvik), then flash twice. So I flash LnT, gapps, LnT, gapps, and then supreme, and cornerstone mod. Might help.
[TouchPad Development] f_padia:
If I install the latest version of this rom would I need to wipe to upgrade to the ROM +cornerstone version that you might release on the wkend? Or could I flash over? Just wondering whether I should hold on or not
[TouchPad Development] O.a.T.:
You should only have to wipe cache, wipe dalvik, flash ROM, then finally flash new gapps when the LnT + CStone comes out. So don't worry about flashing the current version and then having to set up everything all over again.
[TouchPad Development] badaphooko01:
I am having trouble installing this rom. It seems to install just fine but when it goes to reboot, mboot only gives me the option of classicnerd, cyanogen or akop but not this rom. Is there a way to get rid of those boot options? Please advise....
[TouchPad Development] O.a.T.:
You probably need to clean out your boot partition from all the different boot images that have been placed by the different ROMs you have flashed. I believe there is a boot partition cleaner on the CN website, but don't know what "state" it leaves it in.
[TouchPad Development] potatohead:
flash this file via twrp or cwm before flashing a new rom

http://classictomatoe.net/classicnerd.net/Betas/update-remove-tga_uImages.zip

it will clear the moboot menu of roms that are no longer present
[TouchPad Development] badaphooko01:
thank you, that worked
[TouchPad Development] Moronig:
O.a.T., Love the ROM, and I'd be happy to help out. If you need more testers, I would be glad to help on your next round of testing.
[TouchPad Development] strikerage:
I keep getting errors when I use the top Google search bar. It gives me an error and says Google search has stopped. Only issue I've had so far. Love the Rom. Smooth, fast, and responsive.
[TouchPad Development] lzhikai1994:
Definitely want that Cornerstone to work. So as to show off ! :P Nice rom, only Wifi issues but who cares, its still a good solid rom
[TouchPad Development] badaphooko01:
By far the snappiest rom I've tried. Anybody got a cure for the battery blues? I went through a whole battery yesterday when it usually last me 3 days.
[TouchPad Development] strikerage:
Has anyone had an issue with Google search not working? When I tap the top search bar, I can only type one letter and it kicks me out.
[TouchPad Development] badaphooko01:
It works for me. Try unistalling it , then d/l it from the market.
[TouchPad Development] O.a.T.:
News section in OP updated!
[TouchPad Development] O.a.T.:
No problem here either. Maybe try wiping cache and dalvik or go into settings>>apps>>all and clear the data under google search.
[TouchPad Development] f_padia:
Is the ath6kl wifi driver better than the normal driver?
[TouchPad Development] hexto:
I'm excited to try the Cornerstone build. I'm downloading it right now.
[TouchPad Development] O.a.T.:
I don't have any real wifi problems, but even I find that the ath6kl drivers seem to connect faster and maybe a bit stronger.
[TouchPad Development] f_padia:
Cool thanks. Also if I want to use webcm9 with this ROM which version should I try? There are a few different versions for different cm9 builds not sure which is most suitable.

I'm running cornerstone version A now and so far everything is good and smooth. Thank you very much for the ROM. There is one thing though, I can't seem to remove stuff from the go launcher homescreen. I drag it up to remove in the top right but it just returns back. That's for widgets or shortcuts. Any ideas? Thanks
[TouchPad Development] story:
Do I need special drivers to connect Mass Storage on W7?

I had a Galaxy Nexus and it detects fine.
[TouchPad Development] O.a.T.:
Re: webcm9. Not sure what to say about that since I haven't used it, but I would suggest using the one for latest CM9 build. That's 04/18? I'd do a nandroid of what you got now, just in case.

Re: removing widgets/shortcuts. I'm not having that problem, but I am doing it with CStone turned off. Are you trying with CStone on?
[TouchPad Development] lzhikai1994:
settings > storage > menu ( top right hand corner ) > check MTP
[TouchPad Development] O.a.T.:
Not quite sure I'm following the question. Do you mean seeing the TPad on W7 as a media device? Are you using 04/18 or the 04/29 versions. Either way if you go to settings>>storage>>3 dots in upper right hand corner>>USB computer connection and ensure MTP is checked. That should connect in all cases for 04/18, but on 04/29 it will only connect on boot up with CStone disabled. Once CStone has been enabled (and even after it is killed), it won't connect, so you need to do any file transfers before enabling CStone or you will have to power cycle.
[TouchPad Development] folkland:
WebCM9 0.4 support

I have the 4/29 version installed so far no issues - although it's only been like 10 minutes, LOL

I'm gonna give webCM9 a try - I'll report back

Thanks!
[TouchPad Development] hexto:
Tried the cornerstone build. Icons are getting cut off so only the top of them is visible on my desktop, Google Play won't launch even after clearing cache, and my Wi-Fi has been spotty. I wiped cache and dalvik when I flashed. Going to try cm9 cornerstone
[TouchPad Development] f_padia:
I am trying it with cornerstone on but it seems to be working now correctly. May have just needed rebooting or may have been one of the quirks you mentioned.

I'll try webcm9 and report back
[TouchPad Development] folkland:
Well i webcm9 got me stuck at the android logo, had to restore from last backup. Flashed the. 4/18 version 2x - no luck.
[TouchPad Development] f_padia:
yup just experienced that too!

I flashed LnT back over it because I forgot to download the revert .zip but then wifi wouldnt connect. No matter how many times I rebooted or switched off/on wifi wouldnt connect. So I ended up wiping and restoring.

Word to the wise. Do not try webcm9 with this ROM!
[TouchPad Development] hexto:
Some issues here. Back on LnT 4/18 which is perfect.
[TouchPad Development] strikerage:
I wiped, wiped, wiped, and wiped again, then did full reinstall plus gapps. Its weird because my search bar operates normally at first, but hen after a day or so, it doesn't want to work right.

Here's exactly what occurs: when I tap on the search bar, the search screen comes up, and at that point it is fine, but as soon as I type something in the box, the process stops abruptly, like performing the action to search in and of itself is causing conflicts.

I used titanium backup to restore programs the first time I wiped to fix he problem, then I tried to fix a second time by wiping, and then restoring my apps through the market to avoid any non compatible files from corrupting the search function (just being cautious there).

OaT, do you have any suggestions on this one? I like your Rom, its smooth and does everything I'd hoped it would do. I'd love to give it more of a chance before I jumped ship.
[TouchPad Development] O.a.T.:
See where you say search bar works for a day or so. I'd have to guess it's an app that is breaking it. What are you using that is "unusual"? Maybe try installing the unusual ones, one at a time, for a few days till you can figure out which one is doing it?
[TouchPad Development] f_padia:
Do livewallpapers not work on this ROM?
[TouchPad Development] viskon:
No. They don't.
[TouchPad Development] strikerage:
Interesting developments per your suggestion. It seems that my search bar fails upon activating my wifi. Narrowed it down by stopping all running services one by one. Could be Google sync too, but I haven't tested that yet.

I am currently using version A of your latest build, the one without the wifi drivers. I've never had the wifi problems that seem to plague most TPs. I don't know if I should try out build B, or if doing that will probably help?

For sake of not reinstalling what few apps I have, can I just flash version B over the top of version A, wiping only the caches? It would save me a hassle.

Thanks!

UPDATE....

omg.... I just read in another forum where Google search screws up when you mess with dpi. Yes, I changed dpi to 138 in build prop. I haven't reverted back yet, but does anybody think that is my issue? Will mess with it in a while.

Suggestions on a non-finicky dpi setting? 120 is low, 138 seems just right but obviously causes issues, and 160 is WAY to big.
[TouchPad Development] f_padia:
Is that just to keep the ROM light and simple or is it just not capable for some reason? I mean, is there some apk that can be installed to allow live wallpapers to be used or does it need to be built into the ROM when compiled?
[TouchPad Development] slam11100:
Ok. Loving the rom. Super zippy and responsive.

Only problem i have is with titanium backup. I can't get it to start up. Its stuck on the asking for root rights. I open superuser and its allowed. Cache has been wiped. Ideas? Thanks in advance!

sent from my og evo or a-dified tp running smack
[TouchPad Development] O.a.T.:
Yes, no. Yes, no.
[TouchPad Development] f_padia:
:D ok thanks.

p.s. would you consider adding webcm9? It really is a more useful way of showing recent apps and I dont think it adds any bloat to the ROM.

p.p.s. oh and while im making requests :p would you consider also adding the quick apps from here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1525148. Im not sure what this would involve and I appreciate that you want to keep the ROM light and simple but it seems like it would be a very useful addition if it could be implemented.
[TouchPad Development] EViollet:
Hu?

I added the LiveWallpapers.apk and LiveWallpapersPicker.apk from the latest CyanogenMod9 and live wallpaper seems to be working fine. What issues should I expect?

[TouchPad Development] viskon:
+1.
[TouchPad Development] f_padia:
see this is what I was thinking. I remember seeing these apps in other ROMs and I was wondering whether just installing them would give me that functionality. I guess the answer is yes. thanks!
[TouchPad Development] lzhikai1994:
Just curious, does cornerstone allow you to run multiple games at once?
[TouchPad Development] viskon:
My experience has been that Cornerstone gives an error saying that the games cannot scale to fit the smaller screens. They have to run on the bigger screen.
[TouchPad Development] story:
Fast and Smooth

It's everything I wanted from my Touchpad.

Is there any Kernel that works with this rom and can overclock?
[TouchPad Development] lzhikai1994:
I just tried. Was able to play Fruit ninja, BTD 4, Battleheart together with no error. However, the size of the smaller windows are not the size of smaller screens on phones, thus you cannot see the two sides of the game.. Amazing it doesn't lag.
[TouchPad Development] O.a.T.:
Try as I might, I can not see any different functionality that webcm9 adds over the normal cm9 app switcher. All I see is visual presentation changes. Unless someone can really describe the functional differences it's doubtful I will be including that in LnT anytime soon.

From the video, Quick apps seems to provide a dock-like capability through all apps running, beyond the launcher. This provides easier access to initiating apps, although once started accessing them through the app switcher is almost as easy. This seems to be very early in development (v0.3), but I will look further into it.
[TouchPad Development] O.a.T.:
You can overclock the standard CM9 kernel with say, No-frills.
[TouchPad Development] viskon:
I agree that WebCM does not provide any additonal functionality. But having used WebOS quite a bit, I find WebCM more intuitive than the default ICS set-up.
[TouchPad Development] f_padia:
yes youre right about the first point, I guess there isnt really any added functionality apart from the screenshots being larger and thus making it easier to see content. In terms of actual use not much different to standard app switcher. It does make it feel a bit more like WebOS which is a good thing though!

With regards to the quick apps, the dock is not based on running apps I dont think. I think you can add whichever apps you like to the dock. The advantage of this over standard app switching is that you know exactly which apps are there. I can forget which apps are running if I dont use the TP for a while. Anyhow, its not major would just be a nice addition. I understand if you dont want to add because of its early stage. Thanks for considering though
[TouchPad Development] O.a.T.:
Words are hard! What I had tried to say is that the "Quick Apps dock" is available on every app running, not just the launcher. I'm still not sure that is coming out right. :confused: Anyway, I think we are saying the same thing. It is a nice capability that I will try to pursue.
[TouchPad Development] f_padia:
oh yes, I see what you meant now and yes we are saying the same thing. Thanks again
[TouchPad Development] badaphooko01:
Those of you that have tried both A & B. which is giving you better battery life? Version B had been terrible for me, although i just ordered a touch stone so charging wont be such a hassle.
[TouchPad Development] thaiusmle:
Anyway to change dpi to 120 without breaking Cornerstone?
[TouchPad Development] O.a.T.:
I think it might work by just changing the density on the build.prop. But of course you might want to make a nandroid, if it doesn't work and things go sour on going back to 160 dpi. I would try myself, but just installed a new non-Cornerstone version with some things I'm playing with. Let us all know if you do try it.
[TouchPad Development] O.a.T.:
OP News section updated.
[TouchPad Development] f_padia:
"im no building on Ubuntu 12.04" :eek:

yo mean you werent already using Ubuntu :p? or have you just upgraded?
[TouchPad Development] O.a.T.:
Words got in the way again (lol!). "Upgraded" is much better and reflected in news. Thanks.
[TouchPad Development] Moronig:
I tried it with both 120dpi and 132dpi. Both kinda work, the app drawer button gets out of alignment, but the apps work ok.
[TouchPad Development] madflava54:
Anyway to remove the "Go" launcher?
[TouchPad Development] Moronig:
My launcher screen gets off center when I turn the TP from portrait to landscape (and back too), and sometimes the icons are clipped. That happens with cornerstone on or not, and the same happens on Nova launcher, Apex and Go Launcher HD, so it doesn't look like it's related to the upgrade from 1.05 to 1.06. Does anybody else get that? I was running the Apr18 Version B on 132dpi, BTW.
[TouchPad Development] mike-y:
yes, you can remove it, just make sure you install another launcher first.
[TouchPad Development] f_padia:
yup I noticed that too. Not sure why it happens but it can get a bit annoying. Im trying to work out a way to avoid it. If you figure it out please let me know!
[TouchPad Development] f_padia:
is it possible to provide a flashable zip of just the wifi driver used in version B? I flashed version A but im finding wifi to be quite problematic. If I disable wifi I have to reboot the tp to get it back again which is a bit of a nuissance
[TouchPad Development] dung8604:
If you read the differences, the only thing is the kernel + wifi driver. The wifi driver is incompatible with the kernel in version A. Why don't you just flash version b?

Personally, I'm still on the last release before version a and b. Just seems to work better for me and I have little reason to change it. However, I will say that I want the sound fixes found in both A and B. Thus far, I have only done a system wipe, not full wipes, so that could be causing my overall unhappiness with version A and B.
[TouchPad Development] f_padia:
I wasn't sure whether I'd need to wipe before switching from A to b. If not I'll just do that
[TouchPad Development] O.a.T.:
From the Flashing section in the OP...

"Actually, I only find it necessary to wipe cache and dalvik between flashes of my own ROM. "

This has remained true even with flashes between CStone and non-Stone versions. You probably will also have to flash Gapps again, followed by signing into your Google account.
[TouchPad Development] O.a.T.:
I suspect it is because of the 132 dpi setting. Along that lines, I've noticed that at a 120 dpi setting my Google search no longer works, like others have described. Does the "restart" capability in Go HD Launcher not correct it?
[TouchPad Development] dung8604:
If that's the case, then maybe my wifi chip/routers or whatever just plain don't like version A and B... I'll give it another go tonight.
[TouchPad Development] O.a.T.:
I do recommend full wipes and formats from whatever other ROM (CM9, CN, AOKP, CK, etc.) before flashing LnT. But in upgrades/switches from/between LnT to LnT, I've never had to do anything beyond wiping cache and dalvik.
[TouchPad Development] justjayhere:
I would love to test this as well... I have the TouchPad of course.. and an Eee Pad Transformer... So I have one of the best dualcore tablets to compare your Rom's performance against.
[TouchPad Development] soljafree:
Its a great fast and light rom I really like it no issues as of yet and wifi is doing pretty good too
[TouchPad Development] tlazarus:
Figures I'd be the only one experiencing problems... I had CM9 Alpha2 on my touchpad, plus the Bricked Kernel. I booted to CWM, did a factory reset, then formatted each partition. Then I installed this ROM, as well as the GApps, and rebooted. When I choose either the Bricked Kernel or the Default Kernel, I get a boot loop.

I suspect this has nothing whatsoever to do with your ROM, and I am going to fully remove android and then install the rom again, but I wanted to mention it.
[TouchPad Development] Leoisright:
Not necessarily, flash our moboot cleaner then wipe cache, factory reset, then flash Rom again.
[TouchPad Development] chotberg:
send me te rom link please..
