Yes I'm using the 6.14.4,that is all that I installed and disabled automatic updates. I also used micro gapps so that I did not get a version of maps as a system maps that would be difficult to remove.

PS for what ever reasons both my weather app beautiful widgets and flixster for local movie's are now registering geo location. I don't know why because they weren't at the beginning.Not sure about Google Now sometimes I get travel info sometimes not.

MD5 mismatch? Weird, as I made the back up right after install and have not changed CWM version (v6.0.1.9) or anything at that level. Just been installing apps from the Play store and only side load AdBlock.

I played around with WebOS by installing Preware and such for a bit after the CM10.1 install and when switched over to Android it started acting up. So when I chose to restore I got message MD5 mismatch!

As a newcommer to this site I wonder if this "The Easy Way" related to the new TPToolbox that was provided recently.

Do I still need to care about this "The Easy Way" here?

Please add a remark at the first post what is still relevant and how this "The Easy Way" relates to the great TPToolbox.

ACMEInstaller5M step doesn't work properly

Thanks for the nice guide and video on YouTube. I think I might have something wrong with the installation with the 4 ZIP files, because when I run the ACMEInstaller5M step, the TouchPad immediately changes from the large USB icon to the round HP icon and it hangs there forever until I do a hard reset. I suspect the problem might be the location of the cminstall directory that contains the 4 ZIP files. Your instructions state that when you put the TouchPad in USB drive mode, a window will pop up on the PC and that is the location for the cminstall directory. On my PC, no window pops up, so I open Windows Explorer and navigate to the TouchPad myself. I just put the cminstall directory in the root location, but that might not be the right location. Am I on the right track, or is this some other problem? Thanks.

I've started to follow those instructions but already running into issues.

I updated the JAVA and that's done, now the next step is to install the Novacom 1.4.1 drivers.

unfortunately this does not work.

I clicked the link and the drivers downloaded a file >> UniversalNovacomInstaller-1.4.1.jar

I RUN this file but I get the following ERROR (on my windows 7 PC) "ERROR: Driver instalation Failed" (after just a few seconds.

where do I go from here? is there a new driver installer?

I read someplace that the server where the drivers are located has changed or been deleted, is this why it's failing?

I also tried to download the drivers directly, but I get

"The key you provided for file access was invalid. This is usually caused because the file is no longer stored on MediaFire.

This occurs when the file is removed by the originating user or MediaFire.

Still have questions, or think we've made a mistake? Please contact support for further assistance"

Re: [ROM] [03/04] How to install jcsullins CM10 Unofficial Preview Builds Edited 3/6

Many ways to skin the cat...

Since the 2 of you should have the correct system partition size of 400mb from using AcmeInstaller3 previously (right?) & on prior version you should read the Cwm6 Recovery thread in my signature for details of doing a "semi dirty install" (linked in op).. .

- make backup, format system, data, & cache, flash new version & correct Gapps, advance restore "data" from backup.

or "dirty install"...

- make backup, format cache, flash new version & Gapps. ( the cm10/9 zips will format system for you, but I prefer knowing it got done manually beforehand).

or AcmeInstaller3...

- I haven't tried this but I have read that it can be used to install updates without losing data but I could be wrong. Someone else would have to detail it.

If any of the above goes wrong or is unstable...

- format system, data, & cache, flash new version & Gapps, reboot (clean install)

or

- run AcmeUninstaller to fully remove Android, reboot, run AcmeInstaller3 with new cm10 pack again (cleaner install)

May be normal for your TP. You have to see what other apps are running, what is syncing, virus protection....

Not everyone has the same set up. If you have no other processes in the background going then it seems a bit excessive. BUT, remember, this is a 10 inch tablet, with heavy use you may only get 7-9 hours despite whatever ROM, tweaks, kernel that you run.

New CM10 build 03/04

Hey HP Touchpad users,

I just wanted to share my experiences with Jcsullins new 03/04 build and the results of my first battery drain test. So far things have been great! I used the Touchpad off and on for 4.5 days and experienced very little drain during sleep. As is normal, it spiked up and down while sleeping but overall battery life is greatly improved. The Touchpad is quick to enter a deep sleep and stays a sleep more efficiently than with the previous 12/16 build.

The WiFi reconnects and runs faster giving a smoother browsing experience to the user. I've noticed that sometimes it doesn't seem to disconnect when sleeping however it still indicates a battery drain of -5ma so it doesn't seem to be active. I use a WiFi toggle widget to turn it off when I sleep the Touchpad. I had one other problem when I turned the screen off and listened to music, the screen refused to turn back on. I rebooted and it was fine but I hadn't noticed this in the previous build.

So what is the longest battery life you have gotten with this new build? Had any problems or glitches? This Rom is pretty solid and we owe thanks to both Jcsullins and Dorregaray for making CM10 a reality on the HP TouchPad. I like to think if we keep supporting our developers than maybe we will continue to see more updates and newer versions of Android on our Mighty HP TouchPad.

CM10.1 on the HP TouchPad

Hello HP TouchPad users, Great News! SGA has recently posted a build of CM 10.1 for the HP TouchPad with working sound and SDcard. Its almost fully functional minus the Bluetooth. This build lacks some H/W video acceleration but XDA member webdroidmt reports that the latest Adreno drivers fix this problem and it will likely be included into the next build. I am also seeing reasonable battery drain during sleep, as low as -5ma but with the usual spiking. This is a testing build so lets get testing! Please thank and leave SGA some feedback in his thread below.

Big thanks to SGA, jcsullins and drmarble, who all contributed to making this build. Its officially, unofficial, CM10.1 is working on the HP TouchPad!

Re: [ROM] [03/04] How to install jcsullins CM10 Unofficial Preview Builds Edited 3/1

This is also important to hear: This just happened to webdroidmikemt earlier today.

@SGA,

Sorry to report that I am now going back to my CM10 nandroid. Actually, I'm happy that I can still do that. The test build was working great, I was able to get everything working well even with a dirty flash over my current CM10.

Everything I reported earlier was working properly, albeit a bit laggy at times, I suspect because with my dirty flash I had the full complement of apps. In addition to what I posted working in my earlier post, HBO GO also was working and I was able to get the mic working in Google Now without disabling Hotword Detection.

Anyway...the joy ended about an hour ago. I let it sit for a while and when I went to turn it on, I was greeted with the big battery icon/outlet plug. I couldn't get it to turn on with all the various button combos, so I let it sit on the AC charger for a while but it still didn't come back. Btw, when I put it down the battery was at 97%. I have since recovered from this, thanks to my Samsung Galaxy Player AC charger coming to the rescue.

Just wanted to make you aware that this is a possibility, so I would guess caution is advised. But then again, isn't it always with test roms?. ￼

Thanks again,

Mike T
