Touchstone vs Wall Charger and sleep mode.

Yes, I do have daydream enabled to be active when on the docking station. And just to be clear, it is after I remove it from the dock (touchstone) that I see the -170 mA battery drain vs. after removing from the wall charger, I see the - 6 mA battery drain. I will test it with daydream disabled to see if that makes a difference. I am wondering why the difference in sleep mode after removing from the charging stand vs from the wall charger. Both seem to charge the touchpad just fine.

Update: I turned off daydream function before placing tablet on touchstone last night. Checked it this morning and tablet appears to be sleeping at -6 mA. Will test again this evening to see if this is an anomaly or a solution.

Thanks

Just wanted to give Jc Sullins the proper thanks and respect. I've used his software to make otherwise medicore, nearly worthless tablets into well performing, useful, and desirable devices. Using Ubuntu I've debricked many tablets that were practically given away on eBay. Using touchpad Toolbox it has not only erased the useless webOS and reformatted to Android but has also reflashed the a6 firmware so these 3-4 year old tablet batteries last over a week on standby. The near flawless rom of Android 4.4.4 has given me countless hours of enjoyment, a great variety of features, and performance where friends with newer nexus devices can barely tell the difference. Hats off to this man who truly is a master of his craft.

Audio lag when streaming from live video sites

Anyone else have a problem when streaming from live video sites like ones listed below? I'm not talking about video sites like Hulu, or Sidereel where you watch videos that are uploaded, and cached. I frequently watch live sporting events online, and since upgrading to CM11 there is like a 2 second audio lag. I'm using Dolphin Browser with Jetpack installed.

Everything worked fine in CM10, and I didn't even require Dolphin back then.

Help updating Android on Touchpad

Well, it has been over two years since I first put android on my touchpad and I would like to update it. Currently, I run out of storage space because it only give me 2GB out of the 32 to install apps. I believe there is a 50 app limit too.

This is what I am currently running:

Android Version: 4.0.4

Kernal Version: 2.6.35-palm-tenderloin Dated Aug 4 2012

I have tried reading this thread here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2712680

And this one here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2756314

I am still a little confused though.

I don't care about saving anyting on the Touchpad, so a complete wipe is just fine. I was hoping that I could just install an updated version and run it. One that would remove the partition, and since I never use it anymore, webOS.

Is that something I can do? I get confused about installing the recovery and gapps. I already have those, do I have to install them again?

I would appreicate any help on this. I know you all know a lot on here, and I don't remember it being this confusing two years ago, but any help would be greatful.

I just want to make sure I do it right and follow the right steps.

Jcsullins TP 11/25 Snapshot

This is an awesome ROM for the Touchpad. Thanks to Jcsullins for breathing new life into our TP and keeping it out of the landfills. I only have one issue with the 11/25 build that I also encountered with the 10/15 build. After a bit of use, the WIFI basically stalls. If I toggle it off/on, it starts working again for a short while. I have 3 TP that run into the same issue and I'm using the T-Mobile Cellspot router they have been giving out. Same thing on 2.4 or 5 GHz. I even went through a full Toolbox wipe and reinstall thinking it would magically fix it. Has no one else encountered this WIFI problem?

Well...I plug in my TP and windows 8 does recognize it as the 989 that I named it. When I try to run TPToolbox it says novacom is not installed. I guess windows 8 didn't keep the correct drivers upon upgrading. Unless I am doing something wrong.

Power drain issues with Touchpad and CM-11

I have updated my touchpad form CM9 to CM 11, the J C Sulling build cm-11-20141125-SNAPSHOT-jcsullins-tenderloin. I had previously tried the 1015 build. In both builds, I am experiencing very high battery drain , 15% per hour, while performing no user tasks.

I noted, using CPU-Z that there is a very big difference in CPU speed regulation between CM9 and CM11. In CM9, during idle, CPU0 would idle at 192MHz, and CPU1 would be disabled. For CM11, the minimum CPU idle speed shows as 384MHz for both CPUs. CPU1 never goes to disable, and both CPUs never idle lower than 384MHz.

Clock speed range is shown as 192 MHz - 1.78GHz.

This would explain why CM-11 has a much higher battery drain, but does not guide me as how to fix the issue.

Any advice would be appreciated.
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shumash:
It's far more complicated than that. The ROM's don't even share the same kernel. The sharing and setting of the CPU's is performed by the governor. If battery performance is what you are after, set your governor for one that provides it. You can change the cpu max and min frequencies and governor in the Settings app. Suffice it to say that CM11 uses more power than CM9. You can minimize that by reducing the display brightness, putting it into deep sleep manually (letting it go to sleep just shuts off the display until it times out for suspend), etc. Additionally, the 384 MHZ setting has been shown to help prevent SOD's.

PL21046,

I haven't used my TP much since the last charge, but it's been 2 days, 22 hours. That's with 2 hours screen time so far and still at 58%.

Since you said you updated from CM9 to CM11, does that mean you did not perform a full wipe of your TP with the Toolbox?

1. Backspace key is not working in horizontal position but works in vertical

Position of tp.

2. 3 dots on right hand corner does not work in vertical position but works in horizontal position on tp.

3. Bottom icons like goto previous screen , home screen and another on does not work in vertical position but works in horizontal position.

Last update killed my tablet

After flashing cm-11-20141203-UNOFFICIAL-tenderloin.zip, My screen started having problems turning back on. pressing the buttons had no effect, but touching the screen multiple times (2-4 times), and everything would be back to normal.

I woke up the other day and now I have what appears to be a dead tablet. I have tried all options for a hard reset to no avail. (hold any combination of power, volume and enter key, power and 15 enter key clicks etc...several days worth of attempts including holding buttons for as long as 10 minutes) However, when I connect to the computer and hard reset, I can hear the connection noise disconnect then connect, but nothing catches.

I don't want to give up on my touchpad....Any Ideas?

NOT a noob. Have looked up all variations of how to reboot and nothing works. :(

v41 only supports specific gapps packages as stated in the v41 post. If u want to use unsupported gapps packages, u either have to use v40 and rename the gapps package to match the filenames supported in v40 or don't flash any gapps package when u install with the toolbox and then flash gapps manually from recovery.

Upgrading from one CM11 ROM to another

Hi, sorry for being a noob, but I'd appreciate some advice to make sure I'm doing things right and not risk bricking my TP.

I used TP toolbox a few days ago to install cm-11-20141106-UNOFFICIAL-3.4_kernel-tenderloin, following these instructions. It worked fine, no problems.

Now I would like to install cm-11-20141125-SNAPSHOT-jcsullins-tenderloin (mainly because reportedly it supports Netflix, which doesn't work with my current build). What I've picked up from these forums is that I can do this by "dirty flash", rather than repeating the above procedure.

Hello, new member here, longtime fan of the CM builds! I have a bug to report, and it's a pretty simple and verifiable one that affects CM11 (and 12) that shows up running the Scrabble app on an HP Touchpad. If this is not the proper forum to submit a bug report to, then I apologize, please move to the appropriate thread. Thanks!!

Here 'tis:

Bug in Android versions 4.4.4 (and later) on HP Touchpad? Repeatable, verifiable. Not present in Cyangogenmod 10.2, last version 4.3.1 confirmed OK.

Tested present with 4.4.4 CM11, tried with the following builds:

cm-11-20141125-SNAPSHOT-jcsullins-tenderloin.zip

cm-11-20141109-UNOFFICIAL-3.4_kernel-tenderloin.zip

cm-11-20150112-UNOFFICIAL-tenderloin.zip

gapps-kk-20140105-signed.zip

gapps-kk-20140606-signed.zip

Also present in latest 5.0.2 CM12 build:

cm-12-20150112-UNOFFICIAL-tenderloin.zip

pa_gapps-modular-mini-5.0.1-BETA7-20150111a-signed.zip

Bug Description:

Scrabble is a free app available from Google Play, and a very popular one, at that. When it is launched, annoying as it may be, it forces the display into portrait mode. Everything is fine until you start or continue a game, and actually goes to the playboard screen. This is when the bug occurs. When it happens, it seems like it's zoomed way in on the lower left 1/4 (approximately) of the screen. After this happens, backing out to the main menu screen of the game, it is still displaying incorrectly, even though it previously rendered properly.

Interesting Work-Around:

Once the bug happens the game must be terminated, or, I found you can go to the lock screen with the power button, rotate the unit to Landscape mode, then unlock the unit. It will auto-switch back to portrait mode, and the display is fixed! FOr the moment, anyway. It is not a permanent solution, as the next time it switches in and out of the game screen, it zooms way in again. Having to keep going back and forth and keep locking, rotating, and un-locking, rotating, etc. can get annoying, so a fix would be preferable to the work-around.

Possibly Useless Conjecture:

The bug seems to be tied to or at least occurred at about the same time as the changeover to the new auto-hide system status buttons (back, home, app switch) that (dis)appear at the bottom of the screen? At some point during all the unlocking and rotating, etc., the status bar at the bottom becomes opaque, like it used to be pre-CM11, but it's covering up the bottom part of the screen (not reducing the app size to run above the bar, like it doesn't realize the status bar is there or it thinks it's still transparent). So, maybe that may have some possible interaction with the zooming bug, or may be possibly unrelated. Just my SWAG...
