Last I checked you could still download files from the internet. Use the power on the internet and read the first page;)

Edit: The data media cwm is for Milaqs CM10.2 Android 4.3 nightly. So don't flash that with Android 4.2 or it won't work correctly. Downloading and installing Roms can be done without the USB but make sure you know what you're installing.
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nikola P.:
Sorry, I feel stupid :p I thought I would need to push cwm using adb to boot, not that I can just flash it from cwm using provided zip.

Yup, I'm planing to put 4.3 on it, so updating cwm to datamedia cwm was only question mark for me.

Many thanks for this thread. You made it easy for me to upgrade my wife's Touchpad from android 4.2,2 to 4.3 by explaining all the pit falls and the recorveries that can be used. Also putting all the ROMS in one place makes it easy to compare and decide what is needed at any time.

Looking for a JB ROM for daily use

Would you guys recommend a build for daily use. Mainly use Touchpad as an Ebook reader and web browser.
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RolandDeschain79:
Hmm its hard to pick just one there are many great builds to choose from. Its also hard to recommend one when you have given me zero information about what your currently using. If you're using CM9 or CM10 and don't want to change anything or do a fresh install, then you could just dirty flash to Jcsullins latest CM10.1 VPN Bluetooth Build or Milaqs CM10.1, which are very similar. One of my personal favorites is Shumash's Schizoid, which features an incredible level of customization and even an overclocked Kernel. Read the OP if you want to learn how to upgrade to newer versions.

Hi,

So I haven't really updated my touchpad for a while (one year?)

I plan to follow the easy guide and uninstall android, and then go back in to WebOS recovery and install a Android 4.4 package from scratch - that will ensure my partition sizes are correct. :)

How do I make sure I get a 500mb partition rather than 400mb. Do I need to use a particular version of ACME Installer? IF so, could anyone tell me which is compaticle with the Invisiblek rom on the first page. There is also a GApps listed there. CAn anyone point me to an appropriate moboot and recovery that are compatible with this ROM?

THanks,

James

Well, in the end I decided just to use a download package that was pre-configured - Evervolv (4.3jelly bean) with the packaged gapps, moboot and recovery. Working great.

[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kenny_dd:
Hy Guys, i have some questions about the update procedure.

On my TP 16GB is the Schizoid 4.1.2 running and i want to install 4.2.2 Schizoid. Also installed is moboot 0.3.5 an cwm 6.0.1.x

I have read that CM10.1 needs a bigger systempartition. So i installed "Tailor" in WebOS. Since 25min "Tailor" checks the Filesystem. On a 32GB TP it should be 5-7 minutes.

Why it is such a long time? Or is it better to flash the bigger systempatition zip-file.

it is possible to flash the new rom over the old?

what are the next steps to "upgrade" the rom

Edit: Resizing the partition are done ( at the third time i startet "Tailor" it worked ), now i have a 600MB systempartition.

I'm having trouble loading milaq's CWM selinux 6.0.5.4 (uImage and flashable zip) invisiblek and flintman posted. After I load that recovery and boot into CWM, I'm unable to use the Vol Up/Down keys to navigate (Power and Home key work fine). CWM reflects the updated recovery version, but I've gone through the following numerous times:

Clean install with moboot038 and cwm_selinux_6.0.5.4_datamedia.zip

Clean install with moboot038, CWM6_tenderloin20121215.zip, and flashing cwm_selinux_6.0.5.4_datamedia.zip

Clean install with moboot038, CWM6_tenderloin20121215.zip, booting into WebOS, and replacing the uImage.ClockworkMod with the selinux 6.0.5.4 uImage (after renaming it) in the /boot dir via root manager

*Note: Using ACMEInstaller5E/ACMEUninstaller2 between every attempt

None of those procedures allowed me to use the Vol keys to navigate in CWM 6.0.5.4, but the older 20121215 version worked fine.

I'm sure I've probably just made a foolish mistake, but any ideas on how you guys have gone about this for your kit kat testing?
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chicawhyte:
There are multiple issues involving two Touchpads I can't flash, one is 16G and the other 32GB. The update for them via Goo.im is the same: cm-10.1-20131207-SNAPSHOT-BLUETOOTH-tenderloin.zip. Below issues for each tablet. Please point me in the right directionS or better, reply below.

1) The 16 GB:

I did not partition this tablet because I deleted the previous Android and installed the newest OS at the time. Read below for the stats/issues:

*Android v. 4.2.2

*Cyanogenmod version 10.1-20131121-SNAPSHOT-BLUETOOTH-tenderloin

*Build date Thu Nov 21 17:23:07 CST 2013

*Memory 864 MB

*Model No. Touchpad

*CPU ARMv7

*Processor rev2(V7l)

*Times out, can't download

*On GooMgr and TWRP I allowed Super User access

*Voodoo OTA RootKeeper it displays a developer's warning message in red, then it disappears. Checked: Device rooted, /system supports root protection.

=======================================================================================================

On the 32 GB:

On this one it downloads the .zip but when I attempt to flash it, it does not do anything; here are the reasons/issues:

*On this one the volume works backwards. That should be the download I made which is an older one.

*I did not partition this tablet because I figured it has the memory to operate properly.

*About tablet:

Android version 4.1.2

Cyanogenmod version: 10-20130418-EXPERIMENTAL-tenderloin-FOR_LIMITED_TESTING_ONLY_CAM

Build: Thu Apr 18 00:04:59 CDT 2013

Memory 864 MB

model no. cm-tenderloin

CPU ARMv7, Processor rev2 (V7l)

*TWRP message: "Root is required for this app" WTH??

*ROM Manager msg:"You must root your phone for ROM Manager to function. Superuser was not found at "/system/bin/su" or "/system/xbin/su". Use Google Search on your computer to find instructions to root your phone --->OK.

*SuperUser: I have four logs, 10/3/2013 Voodoo OTA RootKeeper; three are allowed, one is created.

*Voodoo OTA Root Keeper v. 2.0.3

*Checked statuses on this app: Superuser app installed, /system supports root protection.

Two tablets that should have the same update but with different multiple issues. Pulling my hairs here and I don't want to upset anybody here.

Hope this information helps, if this causes issues with you guys when it comes to following different solutions I NEED THEM IN A SPECIFIC ORDER (not shouting but stating the obvious) for the flashes to function properly on each tablet. I deleted apps and skimmed through the File Manager on both and deleted unnecessary files but did not touch anything that was downloaded with the Android.

Please please be kind with me! I downloaded both versions with YouTube and my family has enjoyed the tablets tremendously now that they have Android, especially with our Chromecast.

Flash Milaq’s CM10.2 DM 2.6 Kernel and Gapps = ?????

Flash Milaq’s CM11 DM 3.0 Kernel and Gapps = ?????

Flash Invisiblek’s CM11 Data Media (3.4 kernel) and Gapps = ?????

Flash Flintman’s Evervolv 4.4.2 Data Media (3.4 Kernel) and Gapps = ?????

CAN consistently flash "data_plus" zips from The_Ape or Gradular.

Can be flashed with AcmeInstaller5

rebooting from CM10.2

I went through repartitioning, flashing my first data ROM, and installed a recovery that sees both SD's.

However, when on CM and rebooting, no longer see the menu that was there before when selection reboot (CM, recovery, bootloader). Is there a way toi get that back. I am guessing I might need to reinstall moboot to newer vision - but tried flashing 3.8 and it failed.

I can live with it this way (shut down and then power back up into moboot), but would like to be able to again get there more directly crom CM.
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mpgrimm2:
Did you install one of JcSullins' CWM DM 20140317 Recoveries (Philz Touch or Non-Touch) so you can flash Moboot 3.8 (check the MD5 too) ? Frankly, all the others have their own quirks.
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gaww:
I used the modified TWRP, as I have backups that I might need to restore at some point. It is flashing data ROMs, GAPPS, etc. OK - but failed on moboot.

I could temporarily flash one of the above recoveries, and then reflash modded TWRP as needed.

I had switched over to a modded CMW (it handled the moboot zip OK), but will go over to the above - I kind of got use to touch recovery also. if it doesn't work - TWRP is a flash away for the restores only.

[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mpgrimm2:
Two things.

Make sure u are looking at the right sdcard and I think there is a setting under "Backup and Restore - Misc Nandroid Settings" (scroll down) and select TWRP mode to switch to TWRP formats.

Let us know how it works. I haven't actually tried it out.

LOl - I did not scroll down after going to backup and restore to see the Misc settings.

I had never used Philz - lots of problems with it on newer OTA 4.3 and 4.4 ROMs flashing properly. Note - i made a backup in TWRP, but then tried to have it find some TWRP backups (in both SD locations) and it does not see any. No big deal, as I can flash TWRP if I need to restore any old backups then reflash this for everyday.

Thanks again

PS - reinstalled moboot working OK now. Now all I have to do is find a data 4.4 ROM that has the new OC kernel where Bluetooth works (for keyboard. I only have 512 mb in system, but have over 100mb available, and could easily delete some GAPPs (or use GAPPs lite) to keep it small enough.
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mpgrimm2:
FYI, using the current ACMEinstaller5 now sets up a 600Mb system partition. Gradular's data partition resize zips will move space from Webos Media to /data for data media Roms.

[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gaww:
I used a zip that did both, but only went to 512 on system.

I may go back and do a clean reinstall with ACME 5 down the road, but in the meantime, I want to save current setup with nandroids which would not work on new partition. I have a good backup of CM 10.2 data ROM and Evervol non-data 4.3, so going to try Evervol 4.4 just for kicks.

Have been basically away from this device for a year, but going overseas in a few month and am going to take this (and an S4 getting most of my attention these days) instead of the usual laptop, so want it up to speed - BUT basically fully functional (except for camera - does anyone really use it ?).

New question - does ACME installer also reset webOS to initial state and wipe out all data associated with it also?

Thank you guys:highfive: I took inspiration from your kind words and was determined to improve the instructions. I've attempted to make a video that helps to explain this long wall of text I call a guide. I'm sorry about the amount of information, data media builds are just more complicated to get installed and have more possible pitfalls while installing. Unfortunately I haven't had as much time to dedicate to making videos and guides this past year. However rest assured that as long as our incredible developers keep making great roms for our HP TouchPad, I will do my best to make videos and guides to help users get them installed. When the talented Jcsullins releases his TPToolbox, I will make a video about it and hopefully users will be able to get these great data media builds installed without all the fussin and a feudin.

My apologies it took so long to make but its here and hopefully it will help to make the install process just a bit easier. I've added a timecode so users who are already familiar with what a data media build is can just go straight to installing it.
