Thank you for the clarification Drmarble:good: I just made some major changes to the OP to get it ready for a new video I'm filming this week, so there are many inconsistency's with the current video atm. I'm always happy to accommodate other Tech enthusiast but it helps when people explain what the problem is. I really don't know much about people from reading just one short post. Sorry for any confusion or miscommunication.

Like I said I am open to suggestions or requests, ie "could you please add captions to the video". Telling me they are nil or useless doesn't exactly motivate me to spend hours of my own time writing captions. If anyone has requests or suggestions this is the time to voice them, this might be the last time I remake this video.
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jerryatherton:
Say it ain't so!! Your videos are great, i have referred to them often. Saying it may be the last one, you sound like you are predicting the end our old die hard Touchpads.
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RolandDeschain79:
It ain't so! Lol thank you for your support:o Let me clarify;. I will continue to make videos for the HP TP for as long as development continues! I love my TP and enjoy trying out the latest versions of Android:highfive: However this might be the last full install video that I need to make and I plan to do it better and make it more complete than any other video around(Maybe with captions too):cool:

No problem! Sorry about confusion. Most times I do just fine with English but once a while it bites me. :P

I previously posted a howto and a volunteer website for captioning.

after installing cm 10.1 with ACMEInstaller5 is it necessary to do again partition with tailor to update to cm 10.2?? is it necessary to install recovery-clockwork-datamedia-6.0.3.6-20130926-tenderloin again?

this whole tutorial saved my life. i had some issues upgrading to 4.2.2 so i did a wipe, but it got all funky so i had to WebOS Doctor my TP, then run uninstaller, then installer. it was a huge pain in the ass, but now im on 4.2.2 and its smooth as butter. thanks!
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ranjib:
Hmm, maybe I didn't read your advice carefully enough, but I ran into problems when installing cm11 by milaq regarding the partition sizes.

I thought everything would be okay if I use ACMEInstaller5M, but after installing I had to "tailor" /media partition (as this ist now only for webos purposes) and to widen /data partition (which is for android purposes)!
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RolandDeschain79:
Please read the info

I haven't actually had a chance to add links to Milaqs excellent CM11 builds yet. So you got that directly from Milaqs thread and didn't read his instructions. I would highly recommend reading the written information in the OP's instead of relying on video information you skimmed over.

I'm aware that Tailor isn't only for WebOS, I made a video about it.. You also didn't read the info I have about Milaqs CM10.2 build:( Edit now I read you were posting in Milaqs thead and just didn't listen to people:).

[ROM] [NIGHTLY] [JB] [4.3] CyanogenMod 10.2 nightlieshttp://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2450358http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2450358By Milaq

Notes: Low battery drain (-4mA to -10mA) h/w video, Audio & Mic, Nightly Builds, Pie Controls, Inverted Volume Controls, Camera doesn't fully work, Bluetooth.

Note(Important): It is recommended to increase the size of your partition from 400-500MB using Tailor or Flash this .zip file through recovery to change the partition size to 512MB(Gradular&codycoyote). You can also use the light 4.3 gapps

Note:If wifi turns off in suspend/Sleep mode - uncheck wifi optimisation.

-Settings/Wi-Fi/3 Dots/Advanced/Wi-fI optimization (uncheck)

Note(Important): This build also requests that you use a new data media CWM that requires you to change the layout of your partitions. Previously Android and WebOS shared SDcard space in the Media partition (the space you see when transferring data via the USB cable). This build separates the Android and WebOS space by asking you to move free space from the Media partition to the Android Data partition(the place where apps are stored). This new layout will show two SDcards when accessing the tablet from the PC, one for Android and one for WebOS. To make this change you can use either Tailor or a flashable .zip created by XDA member the_ape.

Downloads:

Data Media CWM 6.0.3.6

The_apes Flashable zips

Note: Make sure you have enough free space before flashing one of these zips. There are two types of .zips in a variety of different sizes. one that changes just the Data/Media partition and another that changes both the System and Data/Media partitions. Be sure to choose a zip that best accommodates your TP model 16or32GB.

Note: Once you've made these changes you'll need to use Tailor if you wish to change them back.

Note(Important): The Evervolv AOSP Android 4.3.1 Rom doesn't need these changes and is recommended for average or inexperienced users. This setup should only be done by expert users!

I didn't want to argue. Just tell my first and faulty thoughts. Your work is fine though, thank you very much for that. And I want to tell with the great effords of other developers there is a good working kitkat on our touchpad!
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RolandDeschain79:
Well my bad then, I thought your off topic post was some sort or troll. I do note that ACME5 changes the partition size to 600MB in the video but I will test and add info about Milaqs CM11 builds, i've just been a bit busy. I have a thread dedicated to listing info about the various builds below in my signature line. This is more of a how to guide for first time installers and I don't recommend the data media partition changes for beginners, so I don't mention that in the install video.

U want to revert back to stock rom????
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] haree:
hi

im already on stock u can see what i did on the link given on 1st page i wanted to relock the boot but when i use the comand and do it i keep getting back to the bootloader and thats it so i just wanted to know how to relock the phone and get things looking like its on stock im planning to sell this phone at the phone shop and may be get a MMX canvasHD :p:laugh:
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] anmolkumar10:
If u want to revert back to stock.. Follow these steps :

First u have to unlock bootloader which u have relocked....

Then u have to download RUU... First u see ur radio number on top of bootloader screen. Then download appropriate RUU from here .

Run the RUU application. It will extract the files in temp folder..

search for the ruu logs, for me at c:\ruu_log. in the log (for me in line 191) is the path to the rom.zip that should get flashed. something in temp folder... for me the line looks like this:

"<T093343><DEBUG><CMD>fastboot -s HT1BMVMXYZ flash zip C:\users\raangu\AppData\Local\Temp\{1235}\{12345}\ rom.zip</CMD></DEBUG></T093343>"

extract rom.zip... and copy system.img , boot_signed.img and recovery_signed.img to the adb folder [fastboot folder]

connect usb reboot in fastmode.

open command prompt in the fastboot folder and type :

fastboot flash system system.img

fastboot flash boot boot_signed.img

fastboot flash recovery recovery_signed.img

relock the bootloader

In command line type :

fastboot oem lock

now run the ruu application and install RUU..... U will be back to stock rom with bootloader locked.. :)

HIT THANKS IF I HAVE HELPED U....

---------- Post added at 11:07 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:02 AM ----------

follow the steps i have given and dont forget to hit THANKS... :laugh:

To relock u also have to flash stock boot.img....
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] haree:
hi

assuming u have read my link on the 1st post on what i have dont u mean what i have done is not enough and i need to do what u say to get the same working

right:confused:
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] haree:
hi

my boot details are

Hboot : 1.07.00000

Radio : 1.18.08.18

i dont see this number in the link u gave me for the RUU can u advise which one i need to download pls
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] anmolkumar10:
hmm... I think u have stock rom installed in your phone. U just unlock your boot loader.... Then u flash the stock boot.img that I am attaching here.... Then reboot... If it works tell me..... :good:
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] haree:
hi

just rem long time back i gave my phone for service and they flashed a new SW

and the version was as u see below

android version 2.3.5

sense version 3.5

software version is : 1.43.720.2

and i by mistake deleted the CWM backup of this rom so may be that is why i cant flash the existing RUU as it is a version lower than what i had

so now if i do as u say will it work or will it brick my phone

right now my phone shows stock recovery and stock rom isnt this enough to give my phone for exchange at the phone shop and get any new one im thinking of getting the new MMX canvas HD may be around the month end it still hasnt hit the market yet only available online:rolleyes:
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] anmolkumar10:
Is your phone booting now??? If yes, then its OK .. u can give it for exchange... no worries..... :good:
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] haree:
hi

ya after unlocking the bootloader im able to boot the phone and use it i also added my contacts and successfully did a factory data reset so im good to go

right now got some problem today and some major expense so i dont think in gona trade in the phone right now may be after a few months :(
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] anmolkumar10:
That's gud.... I think you are not having signed stock boot.img flashed.... That's why u r not able to boot the phone after locking the bootloader.... If u want to lock the bootloader, first flash stock boot.img and stock recovery.img then lock it...
[Nexus 4 Accessories] parker09:
Hey just recently got this case, been using it for about two days, I purchased it from ebay for < $10, and as expected it's basically a TPU gel case except it's got a stand.

It's obviously raised a bit on the back in the middle for the kickstand, and I've gotten used to the bump on the back already, it's nice to use as a desk clock for those who haven't got a Orb charger yet, viewing angles are good and as expected will only work in landscape. The stand does 'feel' a bit cheap but has been holding up well (see what I did there??? :P).

Using the phone while the kickstand is out doesn't seem to be a problem, it moves a little if you press too hard, but I've been able to gesture type SMS and while it's sitting on my desk.

Few pictures:

Size comparison between the TPU case with this case (with stand)

You can see the nice Nexus logo albeit a little cut off on the S.

I've tried installing the drivers. I've tried two different PC's. I've tried mounting USB storage and without. With debugging and without. But I can't get the captivate to mount with usb.

Can anyone help me?

Did u try a different micro usb/usb cable ?? Different usb ports ??

Can u get in download mode and Odin recognize ur phone ??

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drizzt5:
I've tried a motorolla, kindle, and a galaxy nexus usb cable. No difference.

I tried the front usb port and the back usb port on my desktop and one usb port on my laptop. No difference.

I can get into download mode, I don't know if Odin recognizes my phone though. Do I need drivers for that?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 4-2ndtwin:
Odin will work with the samsung captivate drivers.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drizzt5:
Can't get the drivers to work on 4 machines. Haven't tried windows Xp yet.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BWolf56:
Are you installing the right ones? I mean, I've ran Odin on all Windows from xp and up (currently on W8).

Also, you could give Heimdall a shot (use a different USB port).
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drizzt5:
I've tried all the recommended drivers. I'm currently letting my friend try on his machine to take out bias.

I'll try hiemdall soon but if the device with drivers isn't working I don't expect it to work.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BWolf56:
Heimdall is a bit different, it installs it's own drivers (hence why I mentioned to use on a different USB port).
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drizzt5:
Sounds promising. Let me try.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drizzt5:
Nope. I can't get this damn thing to work.

Any other suggestions? I can't really do much without getting this connected.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BWolf56:
The thread 4-2ndtwin linked has pretty much all the solutions to connection problems.. It's actually the first time I see it doesn't fix someone's connection problem.

Did you try all the his suggested in his thread?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drizzt5:
I think most of them.i don't have the original cable and don't know how to get it btw.

Let me look at the thread again.

Edit: only thing I haven't done is try it on Ubuntu....

Also. I should note that I can connect to Bluetooth on the computer but not USB.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BWolf56:
Did you check to make sure all the 5 pins of the cable are fine and in contact?

And any samsung usb cable can do the trick, don't need to original per say. BB cable don't work for sure (data pins don't connect), I'm not sure about the others.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drizzt5:
Tried with galaxy nexus cable. I'm pretty sure it was connected.

Anyway I can bypass this all with Bluetooth connection? Something I know works....

Edit: I'm starting to suspect that the USB pins are busted up somehow, allowing it to charge but not mount. If someone can show me how to root and stuff without using a USB cable once I'd be fine...
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BWolf56:
You need to be connected with the USB if you want to root.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 4-2ndtwin:
Yep...sounds like a bad port on the phone. U can check mobiletechvideos.com if u wanna pay to get it replaced.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drizzt5:
There is no way to do this without USB?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BWolf56:
Actually, there *might* be. It's quite the shot in the dark though. I can't test it atm (Cappy is at home and I'm at work).

Look for TRusselo. In his sig, there's a 3e recovery fix (it's a bat file that removes the security check when trying to flash). But since it's supposed to be done through USB cable, you would have to grab the file it replaces and move it yourself using a file explorer (with root rights). Don't forget to make a backup of the original file

You could then put speedmod kernel (zip) on your internal, flash speedmod in recovery. (You might have to rename it to update.zip)

I know it seems a lot for rooting but it's the only way I can think of without a USB cable.

If that doesn't work, you will most likely have to get your USB port replaced.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drizzt5:
I actually tried something similar last night but I'm confused about one thing.

How do I replace the recovery to allow me to install the update.zip without having root rights in the first place? It kept saying I'm not allowed to do that.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BWolf56:
A file explorer with root rights. ES file explorer, Root Explorer, etc. are apps that allow it.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drizzt5:
Ok. So having root rights doesn't mean that you have to be rooted?

So last night I had ES file explorer installed. I copied the recovery and pasted it somewhere for later. I then tried to delete the current recovery so I could replace it with another one and it did not work. But maybe I am confused.

Also, could you link me to the Trusselo file? I found the thread about the 3e recovery, but I don't know which file you are talking about.

Thanks for helping me and responding so fast, I really appreciate it.

edit:

Alright so here is my thought process:

1. I have dropbox for transfering files and es file explorer for moving them

2. I have speedkernel downloaded and renamed to update.zip (I downloaded the .tar file and renamed it to update.zip, is this fine?)

3. I have the recovery file backed up on the phone.

Now what needs to be done?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BWolf56:
You'll need the zip version of the kernel. The .tar is to flash with Odin.

The file should be in TRusselo's sig. I'll see if I can find it.

EDIT: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/19201431/Files/3e_fix-Unzip-ClickInstall.zip
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drizzt5:
Ok, so I found the .zip version of the speed kernel. I have that renamed to update.zip.

Now what do I do with the file you just gave me?

edit: I understand that it is meant to replace the recovery so that I can install unverified updates but I'm not sure what steps need to be taken to install.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BWolf56:
I can't open it at work (Gov worker.. kinda secure in here). But there should be a bat file and the file it replaces. Find that file and replace it with the new one.

Quick question, are you on 2.1? If so, you could try to jump directly in recovery and install the update.zip.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drizzt5:
On 2.2

I'll try replacing the old recovery file with the new one in the .bat file, right?

Edit: Ok, sorry for all the questions but I want to clarify this.

1. Am I replacing the recovery file in the bat file with the old recovery file?

2. Am I replacing the old recovery file with the recovery file from the bat file?

3. Am I just hitting the install.bat file and letting it do its thing?

4. Other...

If I sound like a noob, that is because I have never rooted a device using this method before and I am uncertain, lol.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BWolf56:
Actually, the more I think about it, the less I like my idea. If something goes wrong, you can't recover without a working USB port.

The only thing I'll suggest to try is to go in recovery and try to install the update.zip. If that doesn't work, then you'll have to get your USB port fixed/replaced. The risks are too high with the other method, I haven't used that method in too long and without a way to recover, it feels too dangerous to me.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drizzt5:
I don't think it can be done anyway. I've tried replacing the recovery before with another recovery file and it won't let me. And it wouldn't let me update.zip last time because it was unverified. Unless the speedkernel zip file I downloaded is special for some reason it probably won't work.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BWolf56:
It's such a old way of doing things that it kinda got lost in here but it used to be possible.

When I get home I'll look for a update.zip that you could install (see if I still have one laying around on my external drive).

And I'm in no way telling you how to do this for you to try to replace the recovery but with a file explorer that has root rights, you need to be mounted as R/W (instead of R/O).
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drizzt5:
Alright, I understand. Replacing recovery is highly dangerous. Wait for possible update.zip.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BWolf56:
Sorry for the late reply.

I couldn't find the update.zip I was looking for :/

If you still want to proceed with rooting, you will probably have to get in touch with Josh at mobiletechvideos.com - He has fixed more Cappys than anyone around here.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drizzt5:
Hey thanks for all the help.

But I can't pay $35 to fix the USB. I paid about that much for the phone in the first place and money is tight.

I took a gamble and I guess I'll have to just use the phone as is (Not happy at all about this) until I can find her a suitable replacement again.
