[MENTION=8005714]HP_TOUCHPAD[/MENTION] No worries, my TouchPad scares me it runs so quickly now and I remember checking the partitions with the command you gave in the directions and things looked as they should. It can be one of my life's many great mysteries how I got it done and I am completely okay with that. I have brought hard bricked devices back from the dead before and I could tell you more but it is unlikely you could believe me and my honest humble forgetful self. With everything surgically implanted in my body, I am a cyborg working on Android devices and maybe they just enjoy my company and play nice.

My TouchPad boots faster than the Samsung Galaxy Note 4 I have too now.
[TouchPad General] HP_TOUCHPAD:
As long as you have a /dev/store/swap partition listed when you do the command in TWRP terminal

/boot/usr/sbin/./lvm.static/lvs

Then is all set up properly, that is the most important.

Do not feel alone in your great mysteries, I only know how to copy and paste on a PC.

How all this came to happened?

You're welcome. I'm updating it with aurora store and bromite repository. https://xdaforums.com/android/apps-games/galaxy-playstore-alternative-t3739733

I know why i hadn't internet. For some reason my tab drops the date/time and was in 2018. Manual reajustment made in works. Thanks ! :)
[TouchPad General] HP_TOUCHPAD:
The Aurora Store is perfect, it does what it needs to be done, download Apps and keep them updated. The Tablet can perform perfectly at web browsing and streaming videos. The reason for the slow down is due to the excessive advertisement and data collection by google. Most of the resources of a mobile device (battery, CPU usage) is due to the constants advertisement and data collection. The screenshot shows the Aurora Store and Bromite Browser in the background with 647 free RAM, same as with the ROM by itself.

I use Racoon on the PC to download Apps directly from the Play store and keep them updated:

https://raccoon.onyxbits.de/

It is best to select Automatic date & time in Android system settings.

My own story of no internet with date/time:

About six month ago a friend need it help as her computer would not connect to the internet and it was only use for some basic Web Browsing. Thinking that it may have a virus preventing the connection the PC was brought over to my house for some intensive software repair. An Hp PC with Windows Vista, what a combination !, but I was ready for the challenge. The OS booted with no issues, I looked at the time and date which it was set to early 2000's made the changes as I always do to any device I use, ran FireFox and internet was working perfect. Called my friend to let her know the internet works, the only thing I did was actualizing the date and time.

The problem was hardware related, the CMOS battery that maintain the bios configuration including date and time. During that time by her area the electricity was flickering and some times will stay off for a minute. That cause the PC to reset the year as the CMOS battery was bad.

Lesson learned, always check date and time on any device that can not connect to the internet. ( It will save you a lot of TIME )

memory script: free, cat /proc/meminfo and top

Hello [MENTION=8005714]HP_TOUCHPAD[/MENTION], other other memory 'sheik geek' users.

I have been wanting to start my memory experiments on the HP TOUCHPAD and have created a script that will run the commands free -k, cat /proc/meminfo and top, all consecutively using a shell script, it will redirect the output of each command to a file where it will undergo intensive analysis by me and other 'sheik geeks'. I even have plans to put the top output into an excel spreadsheet where I can add up the RAM memory easily.

This shell script called mem.sh, I created it on the Linux box ( using geany editor ) and then using ADB I have moved it to /sdcard/downloads on the HP TOUCHPAD. But I can't seem to change permissions to execute, so I can run it. Now I can run each command individually outside of the script.

Why can't I ( root ) change to execute permissions like 777?

I still have some tweaking to do on the top command, because I noticed that PIE has different fields than NOUGAT.

I will attach a snapshot of my problem, I have tried as regular user "shell" and also switched users to "root" to no avail.
[TouchPad General] HP_TOUCHPAD:
To run any script on the Tablet, it needs to be place in /system/bin ( folder ) /system/sbin (is under TWRP) and change permission there.

Android already does that using dumpsys meminfo

Here are links, have FUN !

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/26776134/adb-shell-dumpsys-meminfo-what-is-the-meaning-of-each-cell-of-its-output
[TouchPad General] DoubleStuff:
Thanks for the information, I will study those links, but over the past weeks I have become familiar will free -k, cat /proc/meminfo and top, but its always good to know more.

BTW, my touchpad only had /system/bin, did not have /system/sbin, but I was able to copy my script and change permissions, and tweak the top command to something like this: ( top -s 6 -n -1 > filename ). So I will start my experiments soon. This is very fun learning about memory!!!

HpTp_MaXtreme Kernel Settings for ALL ROMs

This guide was updated on October 9, 2019, added the following:

HpTp_MaXtreme: Settings in the Kernel to make it as fast as possible, but at the same time stable and safe to use.

The highest frequency is set to 3.0GHz, but I do not believe is actually working that fast but somewhat equivalent to 1.8GHz (1836).

At least the listed frequencies makes Android and any App believes is running on a 3.0GHz CPU and why not we get to brag about it, having the fastest CPU on a mobile device right now !

All the files for each ROM are a compress zip file that contains all the preset frequencies. The file must be uncompress on PC and then the desire frequency flash using TWRP.

[TouchPad General] frankt2012:
I don't know if I am doing something wrong but last night I tried to install Evervolv v9. I did everything in the correct steps. I did the automatic wipe first and then I ran the f2fs file to format in f2fs and rebooted. After that I added the Evervolv v9 zip and then the Hptp_Max zip at 1674 and then added the reducer script and then gapps and then superuser and the the toolbox all in one shot like the directions say. All flashed fine but when I restart Evervolv just stays at the Evervolv boot screen with the blue line moving. I even tried leaving the tablet for an hour like that and nothing. I tried all different combination of flashing and the only way I get Evervolv to boot is by just flashing it itself with nothing else and it boots right away. But it is on the stock kernel and then the swap partition will not work. It was to late for me to try last night but I am gonna try to start over and flash Dirty Unicorns v13 instead. Maybe my touchpad doesn't like Evervolv with the custom kernel for some reason. Just wanted to see if anyone had any ideas because I rather use Evervolv. Thank you.

-Frank
[TouchPad General] BGrosse:
Hi Frank,

don't really believe your TP does not like Evervolv! My TPs are better on Evervolv than Unicorn.... :angel:

OK, let's start at this one:

- boot TWRP and mount /boot

- in TWRP start a terminal

- key in "cd /boot/user/sbin"

- key in ./lvm.static lvs"

What is then printed out?
[TouchPad General] frankt2012:
I will check that out when I get home from work tonight and get back to you on it. What am i looking for when doing that? Thank you for the help.
[TouchPad General] BGrosse:
It' the table which is printed out. Partition names and sizes primarily. Please report back. :highfive:
[TouchPad General] frankt2012:
Will do thank you.
[TouchPad General] JAChavez99:
I'm having the exact same issue!
[TouchPad General] HP_TOUCHPAD:
Did you actually flash the ToolBox by JC Sullins ?

If you did, then that is the problem. The ToolBox can not be permanently place in /boot there is not enough space to accommodate all the boot images. All listed ROMs will work with all Tablet, if only the instructions are follow exactly as posted. I do have the Toolbox listed as optional, but the user must follow the detail information on how to use it properly. Let me know if that is causing confusion and I will remove it from the guide.
[TouchPad General] HP_TOUCHPAD:
Did you flashed the ToolBox into boot?
[TouchPad General] frankt2012:
I did flash it into boot but I ran the automatic wipe for the 1 gb swap at least four times after that trying to get everything to work. Wouldn't that have removed it from the boot partition. The last two flashed I tried I did without flashing toolbox. Maybe it didn't fully remove it? I didn't realize it couldn't remain in the /boot partition permanently. I misunderstood the directions. Sorry about that.

-Frank
[TouchPad General] HP_TOUCHPAD:
The toolbox can only be use to re-flash the A6 battery firmware and that only needs to be done probably once a year if ever need it. To avoid any issues my advice is to load it from PC or use the following:

https://xdaforums.com/hp-touchpad/general/hp-touchpad-novacom-repair-android-t3960435

All ROMs does work on ALL Hp Touchpad even as a dual install with WebOS !
[TouchPad General] frankt2012:
When I run the automatic wipe moboot only shows like you said:

boot Recovery

boot WebOS Recovery

reboot

shutdown

Mine looks like that plus boot android because I have flashed Evervolv. But it still just hangs at boot and never loads android. Maybe I need to manually wipe the boot partition like you said. Maybe the script didn't remove it all. I will try when I get home. Thank you.
[TouchPad General] HP_TOUCHPAD:
Then the problem is not in /boot and there is no need to delete anything from there.

What frequency did you use?

1674, 1728, 1782 or 1836

The Tablet can hang or freeze if the present frequency is too high.

Also make sure to always use the latest files posted on this guide.
[TouchPad General] frankt2012:
I used the 1674. I figured it was best to start low. I tried the one that was in the All_Files_Evervolv_v9_elginsk8r_Pie.zip first and event the one that was stock but with the 1674 frequency and the swap partition enabled and both do the same thing. Then I tried the HpTp_MaXtreme_ALL_CPU_Universal_Optimize_Swap_Evervolv_v9_elginsk8r_Pie.zip which seems to be the latest one you posted with the 1674 frequency and still the same thing. The only way I get Evervolv to get past the boot screen is to flash with just the stock kernel. I even tried flashing with just the Evervolv rom and HPTP Maxtreme kernel at 1674 and still hangs at the Evervolv loading screen and just the blue line moves.
[TouchPad General] HP_TOUCHPAD:
All ROMs stock Kernel default CPU settings are set to 1512 ( 1.5GHz )

If the Tablet will only boot using the Stock Settings ( kernel ) CPU is set at 1512, then that is the maximum overclocked frequency that it can handle and there are some Tablets that can only run at 1512. That does not mean it will not work, it will perform very similar to the other overclock frequencies.

The reason for all the preset frequency is to avoid installing any App to just change the frequency in Android.

For the Evervolv v9 PIE by elginsk8r, the All_Files and HpTp_MaXtreme have been updated that include the default frequency of 1512, if any Tablet will not boot using 1674, then use 1512.
[TouchPad General] frankt2012:
Thank you for updating with a 1512 version. I will try it when I get home. I will report back what happens.
[TouchPad General] frankt2012:
Just an update. I tried the 1512 kernel and still the same thing. So I tried installing Dirty Unicorns v13 and that works perfectly with the 1674 kernel. It took about 10 minutes to get into android on first boot but it went in and all works fine. I tried Evervolv again just an hour ago and it is till sitting at the Evervolv boot screen with the blue line moving. I don't understand why Evervolv doesn't want to work.
[TouchPad General] HP_TOUCHPAD:
I tried to replicate the issue and the problem is with Open Gapps.

Something changed and the new builds of Open Gapps do not work on Evervolv PIE

The Open Gapps that works are from October 1, 2019. Download from that day and then Evervolv PIE works.
[TouchPad General] frankt2012:
Ok gonna try that right now. Thank you.
[TouchPad General] frankt2012:
Ok so far everything is working. Thank you so much for the help. The only thing I just noticed is SuperSU says no root detected. Is there more I have to do to gain root?
[TouchPad General] HP_TOUCHPAD:
All listed ROMs have permanent Read and Write access to /system, all have root access with no issues.

SuperSu must be the last to be flash, to make sure it makes the proper changes. It must be done after flashing any of the HpTp_ settings file.

Every time any HpTp_settigs file is flash, SuperSu must be flash again.

If SuperSu display that no root is detected, just flash it again in TWRP Recovery.
[TouchPad General] frankt2012:
Ok. I did it last but maybe something went wrong. I will try reflashing it. Thank you again for the help.
[TouchPad General] JAChavez99:
Thanks for figuring that out, finally got it working! Only issue I'm having now is with certain Wi-Fi networks but other than that all is good. Thanks again!

[TouchPad General] middle_road:
Been out of town for a couple of weeks and haven't kept up.

Took (3) tablets with me and the only one to run properly was the one with EV9 on it.

The one with DU 8.1 keeps rebooting randomly so I'm getting ready tonight to wipe it and redo.

re-downloaded all the files so I hopefully don't mess anything up.

Haven't decided with ROM to go with yet...

I'm confused by something - the newly introduced Step 2A MaXtreme.

Do we flash the desired frequency from:

HpTp_####_CPU_Universal_Optimize_Swap_<Desired-ROM>.zip

and then flash:

HpTp_MaXtreme_ALL_CPU_Universal_Optimize_Swap_<Desired-ROM>.zip

is MaXtreme in addition to Step 2 or is it meant to be flashed by itself only?

I've been browsing the last few pages for an hour but can't figure it out.

Thanks,

_Dan
[TouchPad General] HP_TOUCHPAD:
In the ALL_Files zip file there is a README text file that gives a brief description of each HpTp_ Universal_Settings.

The HpTp_MaXtreme is not included in the ALL_Files, is the latest Kernel with Maximum Extreme settings that provide the max performance. There is nothing to worry, the Tablet is stable and was tested before posting.

To get the most out of the Tablet flash the HpTp_MaXtreme with the fastest CPU frequency the Tablet can handle.

If any question, just ask !
[TouchPad General] middle_road:
OK, I think I figured out where my confusion is coming from. And I'm lost...

I re-downloaded the files for EV9 and Milaq's LineageOS-11. trying to decide which to go with.

The contents and structure of the zipfiles is different.

There doesn't appear to be a README in the zipfile for Milaq's nor any frequency files.

The zipfile "All_Files_LineageOS_11_MIlaq_October_01_2019_Kitkat.zip" contains (4) folders.

MAX_kernel_Ramdisk_build_prop_Settings

Original_ROM_Settings

ROM_Reducer_LineageOS_11_Milaq_kitkat

Stock_kernel_Changed_Ramdisk_build_prop_Settings

Under "MAX_kernel_Ramdisk_build_prop_Settings" there is only one file:

"HpTp_MAX_ALL_CPU_Universal_Optimize_Swap_LineageOS_11_Milaq_Kitkat.zip"

and in it the only files and one folder are:

10/19/2019 10:47 PM <DIR> META-INF

10/01/2019 07:25 PM 3,980,038 boot.img

10/01/2019 03:06 PM 4,196 build.prop

02/29/2008 03:33 AM 12 moboot.default

3 File(s) 3,984,246 bytes

In the EV9 zipfile under 'MAX_Kernel_Ramdisk_build_prop_Settings' there are individual zipfiles:

HpTp_MAX_1512_CPU_Universal_Optimize_Swap_Evervolv_v9_elginsk8r_Pie.zip

HpTp_MAX_1674_CPU_Universal_Optimize_Swap_Evervolv_v9_elginsk8r_Pie.zip

HpTp_MAX_1728_CPU_Universal_Optimize_Swap_Evervolv_v9_elginsk8r_Pie.zip

HpTp_MAX_1782_CPU_Universal_Optimize_Swap_Evervolv_v9_elginsk8r_Pie.zip

HpTp_MAX_1836_CPU_Universal_Optimize_Swap_Evervolv_v9_elginsk8r_Pie.zip
[TouchPad General] HP_TOUCHPAD:
Pie and the other ROMs are not been updated and the settings will stay the same. The 1512 frequency was added for any Tablet that can not handle the 1674. The issued came up with a user than was not able to finish boot into Android, but it was related to the Open Gapps, which is fix now.

Only one HpTp_ ***_***_CPU_Universal_Optimize_Swap needs to be flash for all the settings to be apply.
[TouchPad General] middle_road:
Ah, now I think I get it. Forgot that KK had that option to change the frequency...

Been flashing too many different ROMs lately.

Back to post #616 - you mentioned the reboots were due to the tablet being fully charged, and that's is what it was.

I had the tablet on a touchstone....

I also do not have android on my touchpad yet because I am blocked from getting to that point due to /boot folder being full.
[TouchPad General] HP_TOUCHPAD:
Does the Tablet has WebOS?

Do you want to setup Android and keep WebOS, or make the Tablet Android only?
[TouchPad General] middle_road:
Sounds like it's a Tablet in the original off-the-shelf configuration with WebOS only.

You're going to be limited in what you can do until you 'start at the beginning' and get Android on it.

It is a known fact that Milaq's servers spit out Roms every month whether there are updates or not. Why don't you just take his latest ROM and build a compete zip for it. Less confusion that way. All the zips will be the same.

---------- Post added at 03:05 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:35 AM ----------

I copied this from the OP of this thread. I think it answers your question:

For WebOS users

WebOS has the swap partition and it can be share with Android.

There is no need to Flash the file Automatic_Wipe_All_and_Create_Android_with_Swap.

But to use Android PIE, Oreo and Nougat the Android /system partition must be 1400 MB.

There are two options to resize the Android /system partition.

Inside webOS using Tailor:

Click here for Tailor

Using the ToolBox:

Click here to download the ToolBox

After the Android /system partition have been resize Flash any listed ROM.

Now you are going to have to go back to this paragraph in the OP to actually be able to click on the links. You can also do some reading in the link below to better understand TouchPad Toolbox. You cannot do what you say you are trying to do. So follow HP TouchPad's instructions and you can install Android along side WebOS or completely remove WebOS and just install Android.
