it does and i toggled.. thanx

EDIT:: i now think that the reason i didnt see a toggle before is that i wasnt at the very root ..

I just upgraded the girlfriend's TP to the camera preview which had some alpha version of Cm9 with the filename ending in "fullofbugs"... From sometime in early spring, February-May sometime, forget when I installed it, she mostly uses WebOS but is beginning to NEED Android for work..

I could have sworn I would have to wipe.

Oddly enough, it flashed a dirty with no problem. I only had to fix one thing, for some reason Purge Bitmaps (in settings) had flipped itself on, and was causing graphics failure in games and even the camera. I flipped that back off, and it worked. Just a tip in case anyone else has the same problem.

I only tried the stock camera... Image was extremely low res/grainy and the aspect ratio was way off.... that normal? I should read the thread better lol...
[TouchPad Development] blmvxer:
It looks bad in the camera, but the picture afterward looks better.

hi:

i make nandroid backups before i upgrade.

while on prev9, i tried to open HP Touchpad wallpaper applier that was working fine until this time ; i dont remember if i have opened since prev9 upgrade.

i got the stopped error..

cleaned the app's cache from settings-- no help

from recovery cleaned cache and delvik-- no help

looked for any related .odex files to delete.. found none

uninstalled / app and tried to reinstall but got "Insufficient storage available"

i went back to a backup that everything worked and that didnt help.

i dont know if any other app has problems.. i dont have many installed .

i moved the apps that were possible to move, to sd card-- no help

its showing 221mb used and 1.3gb free..

ppl say that i have to reflash gapps.. i didnt do that.

do i have to wipe system >reinstall prev 7 > reinstall prev 9

ive done about everything i could find except a solution of "Download and Install Android SDK from Google’s website" etc.. and using command lines..

any help is appreciated..

EDIT:

this post probly s/b deleted.. posted here before i considered that the orinal thread in general section is the better place ..

sorry

EDIT: solved.. to save clutter please delete..

@Dorregaray

Just wanted to say an official thanks for your work with the camera and making it super easy to include it in any build!

I'll be sending a donation your way!
[TouchPad Development] ASAM123:
Hi. Do I need to wipe if I am coming from CM 9 nightlies?

And how to get google now on Touchpad running ICS? Thanks.
[TouchPad Development] _Dorregaray_:
just clean dalvik/cache. don't need to wipe everything
[TouchPad Development] ph3d:
How's the Jellybean port going I was enjoying ying face recognition for unlocking while non this ROM lol :) thanks again for all the work!
[TouchPad Development] donniebball23:
Install question. I am coming form cm7. Do I just follow the instructions for CM7 to CM9 and just use this file instead of update-cm-9.0.0-RC0-Touchpad-alpha2-fullofbugs.zip? Or do I install that first then this? It has been along time since I modded my tp so I basically forgot how to do everything.
[TouchPad Development] _Dorregaray_:
follow the guide and use preview7 instead of update-cm-9.0.0-RC0-Touchpad-alpha2-fullofbugs.zip. then install preview9 upgrade
[TouchPad Development] tystar:
Big thanks, First time i've flashed my TP since I bought it with CM9 already installed. Didn't realise would be so easy to flash to this. Anyway works a treat thanks again
[TouchPad Development] donniebball23:
To flash the update, do I just put the update in cminstall folder and reboot?
[TouchPad Development] sstar:
Just download it and flash with either CMW or TWRP .
[TouchPad Development] amkaos:
put into cminstall > reboot into recovery > install zip from sdcard > navigate to cminstall > choose that update zip > center button
[TouchPad Development] donniebball23:
Latest issue :)

I installed the update but now I am getting an error in the system tray stating "Permission requested" for my gmail account. When I click on it I get "Unfortunately, Android System has stopped". Any idea what the problem is?
[TouchPad Development] shumash:
Did you reinstall gapps?
[TouchPad Development] flamand:
If reinstalling gapps doesn't work, try deleting gmail app data, delete your google account, reboot, then re-add your google account.
[TouchPad Development] donniebball23:
I installed it when I upgraded to cm9. Do I have to do it again after installing the update?

---------- Post added 15th November 2012 at 12:07 AM ---------- Previous post was 14th November 2012 at 11:35 PM ----------

I ended up putting the word "update" in front of gapps file and flashed it. That did the trick. I installed cm9 with Acmeinstaller3, so I guess I needed to put update in front to work.
[TouchPad Development] _Dorregaray_:
preview10: http://goo.im/devs/Dorregaray/update-cm9-tenderloin-camera-preview10.zip

I have replaced the binary libcamera.so with the one built from source. Please let me know if it works the same as preview9. Thanks
[TouchPad Development] stunndd:
Probably a stupid question but can I update from 7 straight to 10?
[TouchPad Development] jeepcook:
Is there something else in the changelog ?
[TouchPad Development] _Dorregaray_:
no, that was huge change
[TouchPad Development] _Dorregaray_:
I'm proud to present the preview11, now flashable update for official nightly:

http://goo.im/devs/Dorregaray/update-cm9-tenderloin-camera-preview11-for-official.zip

No more separate camera builds.

The camera permissions fix has been merged a few minutes ago so the camera will work out of box from the next nightly. For older nightlies you have to fix the permissions manually (in terminal):

chmod 666 /dev/msm_camera/*
[TouchPad Development] nikos5800:
Can you make a flashable update for cm10 jelly bean?

Thank you again
[TouchPad Development] noellenchris:
Thanks Dorregaray! You truly are a great member of XDA and the CM team. You have been hard at work on one of the hardest tasks for our TP and you were quick, professional and selfless in your actions. People like you are what has made XDA into the greatest forum for our toys.

Be Proud!

+ 1 x 100..well put.. im so happy dorregaray is here.. fixing all the bugs and incomplete functions, our HPTP is now fully useful and a real pleasure.. i cant thanx you enough

EDIT:: I get bootloop.. reverted back to prev_10 ; maybe its something simple.. bad d/l or something..

i spose i misunderstood.. this update is just for the official nightlys and not for this thread?

thanx
[TouchPad Development] :
Awesome job, thank you!
[TouchPad Development] rkaede:
wow. i see both patch for jellybean and ics already approved and merged.

you're the man!!!
[TouchPad Development] ph3d:
Can this new version be flashed over jb?
[TouchPad Development] detdett:
Not yet
[TouchPad Development] tichs:
thx, now I think CM9 for the touchpad is finally done, there is nothing more to do, the future lies in jelly bean 4.2 now
[TouchPad Development] BuffMcBigHuge:
Just flashed this on 16.11.2012 CM10.... it now is stuck in the boot animation.
[TouchPad Development] tichs:
don't flash like that, clean everything then flash wipe data and system
[TouchPad Development] amkaos:
is this different than [ROM] UNOFFICIAL CM9 with working camera prev 10?
[TouchPad Development] BuffMcBigHuge:
yes, i always clear my dalvik and cache partition. im saying the preview 11 does not work on cm10 at the moment.
[TouchPad Development] rkaede:
works for me. just get the latest nighly from get.cm. make sure u restore factory data.

format system. format data.

flash the nightly , gapps and the preview 11. voila !!!
[TouchPad Development] _Dorregaray_:
It's prev10 ported to work with official nightlies. no functional changes
[TouchPad Development] _Dorregaray_:
For CM10 users I have something: http://goo.im/devs/Dorregaray/update-cm10-tenderloin-camera-test1.zip

But it's not tested. I don't even know if the device will boot after flashing or if it will work. Anyone wishing to give it a try?
[TouchPad Development] sstar:
Didn't work for me.First two times got a blue screen and the third time got stuck in a boot loop.

Reverted to my back up . Looking forward to version 2 ?

Thanks
[TouchPad Development] blmvxer:
Boot loop first boot. But hey one more step in the right direction.

[TouchPad Development] detdett:
Hey Dorregaray,

Do you think touchpad camera can have the same mod as the nexus 7 where video recording would be 720p instead?

Thanks
[TouchPad Development] Dimitris CH:
So this means that when the next CM9 nightly come out we can just flash it and camera will be working!

Love it!!

Congratulations _Dorregaray_!
[TouchPad Development] jeepcook:
We'll see tomorrow, day of weekly cm9 builds ...
[TouchPad Development] :
Boot looped here as well... how do you recommend flashing it?
[TouchPad Development] _Dorregaray_:
the test1 for CM10 is not working :(
[TouchPad Development] amkaos:
it seems that [ROM] UNOFFICIAL CM9 with working camera is complete and maybe a new thread for cm9 official and/or unofficial cm10 should start up...

maybe not
[TouchPad Development] nicsptl:
To Dorregaray,

iF i build CM10 as stated in your github, will camera work ?? or there are some changes to be made it on cameraHal to work on CM10.

Many Many Thanks to you to make our camera dream in Android true :)
[TouchPad Development] _Dorregaray_:
there's a crash after starting preview on CM10. I didn't found a fix for that yet.
[TouchPad Development] fireforhire:
This patch softbricked me on the newest cm9 nightly...
[TouchPad Development] mrnv45:
I tried to do 11 but didn't get no boot up just back to recovery. I'm on 9 now.. do I gotta do 10 first?
[TouchPad Development] chicle_11:
I flashed 11 over the 11/11 nightly and it's working fine.
[TouchPad Development] Xontic:
I have been reading this thread and it seems like many of you are coming from different builds. I have been trying to get my sister to allow me to root and put android on her TP, but she wanted the camera to work with Skype. Now that it seems to be fixed, is it as simple as using a phone? I am using the GS3 and am fully comfortable with putting on a ROM and everything, but people are talking about putting this ROM in the update folder and flashing it over.

Just wondering if, coming from scratch, is it like a normal phone, where after you put on CWM you just wipe and flash ROM+Gapps?

Thanks for your time,

-Xont!c
[TouchPad Development] chicle_11:
If you're flashing android for the first time, read the stickies, there are several good how-tos. WebOs nation forum is another good source of information.

It's a whole process. You have to create a cminstall folder, put the right files in it, and type the commands to a command prompt.

Good luck.

This really belongs in the q/a section.
[TouchPad Development] jeepcook:
new rom available ! http://jenkins.cyanogenmod.com/job/android/13083/

Even if she's not happy with the camera (or anything else) you get a dual-boot tablet so she can use webOS as much as she wants.

20121118 cm9 build installed, after installation I had to install preview11 for camera.... everything work great .. but why is the camera module not merged to cm9 builds ?

Thanks
[TouchPad Development] _Dorregaray_:
because it hasn't been accepted and merged. why? don't ask me
[TouchPad Development] jeepcook:
Ok no problem.. we just have to flash yours! Thanks for your great job!
[TouchPad Development] tekrhino:
Sighs... download link for the 1118 nightly is down, even the torrent link is dead.

Oh Boogers!.. Oh well, I've waited this long for this to come, I can wait some more..

BIG THANK YOU to the OP.. Much props dude!

[TouchPad Development] mrnv45:
if coming from your rom, do i have to full wipe going back to the cm9 + preview 12

which i was on before your fix?

can i just wipe cache and dalvik? or do i have to fresh wipe...

cause damn i have a nice set up lol
[TouchPad Development] mrnv45:
Never mind.......I just wiped cache and dalvik...flashed both..worked great....cm9+12... are y'all gonna start a new thread for cm10 when can and sound work

Dorregaray,

Coming from your unofficial CM9, can I just flashed the CM9 official nightlies and then the preview 12 without wiping data? I don't want to lose all those apps and customization.

Thanks again for the spendid work!
[TouchPad Development] drmarble:
The legendary James Sullins has produced a cm9 test version with camera:

http://goo.im/devs/j...-tenderloin.zip

alternate download site:

http://sourceforge.n...jects/touchpad/

He wants testing and klogs and logcats.

He is hoping to merge it in (115 commits!). Wants lots of testing before pushing.

His work is entirely based upon Dorregaray's work. They have been discussing it together in the irc. He has the advantage of being able to push _some_ of the changes to cm. Us mere mortals can't.

Thanks to all. Enjoy testing.

Try cleaning Skype cache in "setting control panel & scroll down to apps section, look for Skype.

Please don't ask for ETAs or news about upcoming development, since devs do this in their free time and asking can be construed as demanding. The standard snarky/flaming answer to such questions is "2 weeks."

if i were to guess cm10 wont come until the camera is merged into cm9 nightlies.

i dont have any firsthand knowledge, but just a guess.
[TouchPad Development] havikx:
Cm 10 cam test 1 is already out. Doesn't work... But they tried. Soon. How long did you guys wait for ics camera? You can wait.

Dorragaray, you are highly under appreciated. I know your are helping other device developers fix the same problem you just worked so hard to fix. I admire your ability to work on and troubleshoot a device you yourself don't have. You are to camera fixes what Dan rosenburg is to root. The man. Thanks for all you do.
[TouchPad Development] _Dorregaray_:
yes, the first step is to finally get the camera driver merged in cm9. then I have to successfully migrate to CM10 and we will see
[TouchPad Development] x000x:
i think there is only 1 person working on it (Dorregaray)

so i'd suspect the process will be slow.
[TouchPad Development] _Dorregaray_:
yes, only I'm working on it. unfortunately there's no one being able/eager to help:crying:
[TouchPad Development] Dongers:
Are there no other Devs that can help out Dorregaray..?

It is really quite sad that after all this time we finally get a few breakthroughs and everyone appears to be too busy with JB now...?

Thought that the people working on JB would be interested in getting this more stable, so they could port it to JB....

Guess not...its a shame.

Wish I had the skills to assist, can you imagine the kudos you would get (along with Dorregaray) for this!!! :)

Keep up the good work though Doregaray, knew you would get there in the end, youre a Legend!!!

[TouchPad Development] Treken:
Try to do a clean install rather than a dirty flash. factory wipe after using titanium backup to backup apps and wipe cache and dalvik then flash Rom and see if you still have the problem. You can alternately wipe cache and dalvik to see if it works then resort to a complete wipe if needed. I think there's a zip in the dev forum that may fix the Wi-Fi as well. Good luck ;)

BTW, thanks D for this progress. p.m. me and maybe I can help out with your endeavours

[TouchPad Development] mengesb:
I do have to ask, why release a full build on your own when you could merge your commits to get the camera working with Cyanogenmod? They're very active, and I'm sure they'd very much appreciate and give you complete credit for working on the camera, which has not been a primary objective of theirs for quite some time. I test for the touchpad project, and I know that your commit merges would be welcome if they can pass code review. Perhaps they can even fix or address some of the errors your releases have experienced? Have you joined #cyanogenmod-toucpad?
[TouchPad Development] rkaede:
if u follow his thread on rootzwiki. he did mentioned the reason why it's not possible to implement it to the current CM9 build. something about the memory spliting that disabled on the current CM9 build. in order to enable it theres no other way than build ur own ROM with the memory split enabled.

Is battery management continually being worked on or is it as good as it will ever be?

Since I installed the first camera patches, while all else is fine, a specific video game (Fantasy Defence) has some glitches (e.g. in specific scenes the screen appears all white instead of showing the animation).

Is there any chance the camera patch has affected the graphics in the video game?

I can get a video and post if you are interested to check.

It's not a big deal, just wondering.
