[Q] Need HELP PLEASE (TouchPad Cyanogen 9 Alpha 0.6)... - TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Okay I am having some problems. I upgraded from the Cyanogen 7 Alpha 3.5 to the new Cyanogen 9 0.6 using the lilputing (spell?) instructions to the letter. Everything upgraded and installed just fine but when it booted up I got a picture asking for pin code/pass code with a numbered keypad.
I don't have a pass code or pin on my TouchPad. What am I supposed to enter here??? Please someone HELP ME so I can have my TouchPad back! Thanks and hope someone can help me SOON! I don't want to wipe the data as I don't want to loose all my apps and games I put on there when I had 7. Is there anything else I can do??? I am anxious to try Cyanogen 9 after hearing so many GOOD things about it! THANKS DEVELOPERS!

sorry but dont think its possible to go from cm7 to cm9 and keep your apps and data.
some wont work on ICS anyway.

Actually according to RootzWiki here: http://rootzwiki.com/topic/15509-releasealpha06-cyanogenmod-9-touchpad/ it states you can do it. My Mother was able to upgrade from 7 (Alpha 3.5) to 9 (Alpha 0.6) without any problems. I just can't figure why it would work on one TouchPad but not another.

There is. When i upgraded mine, i did not lose my apps and data. What i did is I ran the novacom acmeuninstaller2 script in dos prompt and made sure i have the zip file inside the cminstall folder in my tp.

I was able to jump from CM7 to CM9 via an upgrade. However, you might want to invest in Titanium Backup to be able to easily do a complete wipe and easy restore. It is a great product for "ROM jumpers"

I was also able to make the jump, but it made me reinstall almost all of my apps before they would work again anyway. Thankfully I was able to use Amazon for them, as the Market forgot what free apps I had...

I use Astro app backup for my touchpad. It doesn't back up data, but I like it that way, fresh install.
You could try reinstalling CM7, and see if it will boot, then back up your apps, wipe and install CM9. I use Titanium Backup on my phone, but on the TP it was spotty which ROMs would let it open. Because Astro doesn't need root it always works.

Has anyone tried ROM Toolbox to see if it was any more compatible than Titanium Backup is. I would personally recommend a clean install to make sure no bugs are caused by leftover applications. To each his own though.

They say on rootzwiki that if you use the acmeinstaller2 you shouldn't have any problems upgrading

[Q] HELP!!!!

Ok, so I have a rooted Nexus One with cyanogen 6.0rc3 on it. I recently tried to put cyanogen 6.1 on it so I could upgrade to 7.0. Then, I see the common glitch where there is no market so I revert back to my old rom which I made a backup for(using ROM Manager). So here comes the hard part, when it restores my ROM, have no apps, no nothing which I downloaded, and I tried to restore again, because ROM Manager reinstalled, but I didn't get anything. Can some tell me how to get my data and all my stuff back, please?!?!?!?! If I don't get help by the end of the month, my service gets cut off, so I really need help!!!! Please help guys, thanks in advance, you guys are the bomb!!!!

What's that supposed to mean? You lose service because you don't have the data on your phone restored?
Are you using apps2sd?
I feel like you have no chance of restoring anything at the moment though.
If you have a custom recovery, just wipe and start again, or restore your backup... Make sure you have a gapps package that is compatible with your ROM...

All your apps will be in the market under 'my apps' and as long as you have synched with Google servers all your data should be retrieveable by re-synching.

You don't need to go to cm6.1 to get to cm7. Even on 6.1 you need to do a full wipe anyway to eliminate any potential problems.
Also did you happen to use CWM 3.0?

Cyanogenmod Question

Hey, i'm having an issue with cyanogenmod 7 on my Nook Color. Switched from cupcake because I thought I'd have greater compatibility with apps. Since the change, programs that once worked (e.g. snesoid, beautifu widgets) won't book. Just get hung and ask me if I want to force close. I'm using the tablet tweaks and everything... is this just how it is, or did I mess up somewhere along the line? Thanks.
I can't speak for the specific apps or ROM ur using, but yeah this happens with the occasional app. Remember that u r using an unfinished product. It will get better as CM refines it. Android as a whole is a buggy system. Its never going to be as functional as something like iOS.
Did you wipe either Cache and/or Data partitions before flashing CM7? Wiping the Data partition will wipe all installed applications and settings, however, it will prevent any weird issues arising from incompatible settings across different ROMs and OS versions.
I don't know about snesoid, but my personal experience is that BW works very well in CM7.

Sounds like something's wrong. My Beautiful Widgets works great. I'd try reinstalling using these instructions:
I have similar problems with both Beautiful Widgets and the XDA app. When I log into the XDA app, it gives me a force close pop up. However, when I use the XDA app without logging in, I don't have any problems.
Which instructions are you referring to in that MASSIVE 100+ page post?
Thanks.

The first post on that page.. That's how I flashed CM7 (pretty standard method, really) and I have no problems with Beautiful Widgets. Haven't tested XDA app. To be honest, I have problems with XDA app on my Droid 1, CM7, so I never use it.
Thanks everyone! I installed following the instructions from wiki.cyanogenmod http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php?title=Barnes_&_Noble_Nook_Color:_Full_Update_Guide
I will give it another shot and report back when I do. Right now I've gone back to cupcake, but still having a problem with beautiful widgets- gets stuck on the "loading skins" screen, never loads.
p.s. I *did* wipe the cache and data partitions
"Cupcake"?? I think you mean "Eclair"?
Cupcake was many versions ago, before the Nook existed, and the Nook Color ships with Eclair...
So, I switched to cyanogen, but I couldn't get beautiful widgets or snesoid to run. Trying to revert to factory settings, but every time I try I get stuck on the word ANDROID in blue.
I've tried hard booting 8x, I've tried running the script to change the bootcount but this just gets me to clockworkmod. I try running the factory reset/data wipe option, but it clearly doesn't remove cyanogen. I've also tried sideloading a 1.1 version zip, all to no avail. Any suggestions? Would uninstalling clockworkmod help?
Are you sure you followed the 8-failed-boots method precisely? That really should have brought you back to stock, at least as far as I understand.
http://nookdevs.com/Flash_back_to_clean_stock_ROM
I really do think so. It brought me to clockwork recovery instead of the usual factory reset...
Well I'm out of my league (I haven't done this) but it seems there are still ways... You could check out http://www.androidtablets.net/forum...install-cwr-save-root-revert-stock-image.html or do some searches here.
Now I'm stuck on the N sign instead of android... Tried everything in the link here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=914690 including the boot partition. No dice. The only way i can get it to boot is to reinstall cyanogen. Is there some trick to uninstalling cyanogen? Any other suggestions out there?
It seems like cyanogen just WON'T WIPE. Even when I format my data, it still loads, despite clockworkmod reporting that it has been formatted. Ideas please!
Check at androidtablets dot net
look for the link about restoring and removing clockwork from an SD card. I'd post the link but I can't yet.

Bummer. Yeah, that's the link. You might want to look in Nookdev too. They oulined a process that was similar, but they said you have to do the image restore AND unregister... though it's been a while since I've looked at it. It might be more helpful. Good luck in getting it back to stock.
This is unfortunate. I had been under the impression it was a LOT easier to get back to stock. (I still bet someone who knows will give you the right guidance.)
Oh well, I guess it's a good argument for using SD card booting exclusively -- I can't wait for a final CM7 SD Card ISO.

[NIGHTLY] UNOFFICIAL CM9/ICS For Droid 4 For MotoICS Leak

FLASHING ROMS WILL VOID YOUR WARRANTY AND COULD POTENTIALLY DAMAGE YOUR PHONE -- WHILE I MAKE EVERY ATTEMPT NOT TO LET THIS HAPPEN, IT'S STILL A RISK THAT YOU'RE TAKING. IF SOMETHING BAD SHOULD HAPPEN TO YOUR PHONE, PLEASE DON'T BLAME ME -- HENCE THIS WARNING.
This isn't so much a ROM announcement as it is a direction to find the unofficial nightly builds of CM9 for the Droid 4 (based on Motorola ICS leaks)
Download Here from ROMbot
Download GApps Here (04/29 Goo-Inside GApps Link).
FLASH THE GAPPS.ZIP FILE AFTER YOU FLASH THE ICS.ZIP
WHAT do I need to run this ROM?
- Rooted
- Running a Motorola ICS leak (.206, .208, .211, etc)
- I recommend that you run Safestrap v2.00 to install this. Here's how to use Safestrap
And you can download Safestrap for the Droid 4 (v2.x for ICS-leak users) here:
Safestrap « Hash-of-Codes
WHAT can I expect to work right now?
- 4G and basic phone function
- All sensors
- Camera, Panorama and Face-unlock
- Video Recording
- HD YouTube
- Netflix
Current Known Issues?
- Data connection is a work in progress. It's MUCH better than it used to be in the old ICS builds, however there is always room for improvement. Due to the "global" data connection style of stock Motorola ICS, this problem will probably continue to be worked on. Feedback is always appreciated, but if you see it posted already then there's a good chance I know about specific issues.
- Currently, there is a bug in the rotation display of the phone. What I mean is, that when you take the phone and rotate it, the display will squeeze in on itself and then pop back out. This is a *known* issue and I'm working very hard to fix it.
- The CM9 built-in Wifi Tether won't work. You need to use the "Wifi Tether" app that's bundled into the ROM. Once you open it, hit [menu] and "Settings". Select "Change Device-Profile" to "Generic ICS".
- I'm sure there's more, I'll update this list here in a bit.
WHO works on this?
Myself and @DHacker29 work as a team to build AOSP-based ROMs (and device setups) for several Motorola phones. Typically, I do the coding work in C, C++ or Java while DHacker maintains the blobs, runs merges with CM/AOKP sources, and solves device issues which require less coding.
WHAT is a "nightly"?
It's an automated build ran from a script. It basically: deletes the current set of output files, sync's with github, and then attempts to do a brand new build. It can break at times, in which case we'll fix it (usually this happens when there are framework changes which didn't get merged).
WHY would I want this?
- Since we work on several devices, this is how we decided to start keeping builds up-to-date. Rather than spend several hours a week on builds and uploading. This happens automatically every night around 2am PST.
- It's up to you the community to identify good "stable" builds.
Feel free to follow me on Twitter as I do sometimes make announcements there before I do forum postings:

Looking great Hash! Thanks for your work.
my excitement is robust
Just tried installing using safestrap and bootlooped. Had to hard reboot to get back to safestrap recovery and back in to stock ROM. Anyone else tried this yet? Might try again tonight when I get home and let the battery charge up a bit.

That was it. First time I've used safestrap. I figured since I did not have a previous ROM installed in Safemode that I did not need to wipe. Went back in, wiped data and cache and now I am in business. Looking good Hash!
One question though, I tried to wipe dalvik and it said it could not find sd-ext. Any idea what that is about?
Edit: Feels so good to be flashing ROMs again!!!

I did the exact same thing (not wiping on a fresh safestrap). I believe that message about the sd-ext is normal when wiping dalvik.

I believe the reason behind that message is that the Dalvik cache is not stored on the sd-ext, but rather the sd, which is internal. Since theres technically 2 SD cards on our device, it looks for the dalvik on the first one. A dev would probably have better advice on it though,....I may be wrong.

Safestrap checks for a dalvik cache under a theoretical /sd-ext partition on the external SD. It's almost never there tho. So you can safely ignore that message.
So one thing I have noticed switching between stock and the ICS ROM is the battery level is not consistent. Reads 60% on stock. Reads 26% on ICS. Anybody know what's up with that?

Appreciate the Rom.. Runs very nicely on Droid 4. Easy install.
I know HW video is being worked on. Will that fix or update allow Movie Studio to work?
Very interested and excited about Ice Cream Sandwich and future updates to this Rom
Installed and loving it so far.
The one thing I've noticed, the phone gets really hot, and the battery usage is pretty poor. I actually watched my battery percentage drop while doing my installs of all the apps that I had to download.
I lost about 3% during that process, even when plugged into the wall charger.
I'll keep an eye on it, as I'm close to a charger at all times, so bad battery life doesn't affect me too much.
Can't wait for BT to work, as that would be the last piece in a daily driver for me.
EDIT - just discovered I'm having issues with Chrome Beta. I've never used it before, but it won't load any websites. I'll DL Dolphin for the time being, but would love to try out Chrome. Just wondering if anyone else is running into this.
Im fully installed and Chrome Browser works great along with all other functions on my end.
As for battery percentage Im not sure if im having your problem with excess heat....

Ok found out it was my charger. For some reason it wasn't actually charging and was just causing heat. Plugged it into a different charger and all is well now.

I'll check tomorrow to see how the battery life is but for now every things pretty smooth. Thanks!

Safestrap 3.05 help please.

I uninstalled the old version of safestrap, then installed the new version. I can do everything just fine (install, wipe, etc) but when I try to boot from the ROM slots, the phone just sits at a black screen.. I tried flashing Eclipse 3.0 and nothing happens.. help???

Hey guys,
New to Droid 3/ Milestone 3 World here.
I just bought one, actually with the 5.2.390.XT860.Brasil.en.BR version.
I'm not exacly new to flashing roms, and recoveries, but in this case I'm a little confused. Is it possible to use SafeStrap on this one? Or better go for an older version of it?
Thanks in advance.
@Munckster, as long as it is rooted you can install safestrap 3.04 and try if custom roms work for you?? but make sure you have the correct SS3 version!!

I was thinking about trying... Maybe during the weekend..
Thanks for the advice, man!
I took my phone back to stock (from an oldish CM9 that had been working reasonably well for me for some time) so I could install SS3. Made the mistake of letting the phone OTA update itself and then had to find a new root hack before I could get SS3 installed.
Unfortunately the OTA update has messed with the radio, as reinstalling the CM9 I've used for months gets a system where the phone app just crashes.
The kexec cm9 on hash code's download site results in a black screen for me. I have to pull the battery to get the phone back. Funnly enough the old CM9 does boot - and every thing works except the phone.
The latest CM10 does every thing I want (I can live with out the camera) BUT I can't receive calls, the phone app crashes. (But I can MAKE calls!).
This is on GSM BTW, not CDMA where I live.
So i'm busted back down to the 'stock' OS so I can use my phone as a phone
And as a new XDA user I can't post my bug report in the developer thread.
Well,
I installed the 3.0.5 version. Works like a charm! The easiest to use recovery that I ever use.
But the question is: Is it safe to downgrade it?
Sorry about the dumb question.
SS3 can be un-installed pretty easily. Boot your 'stock' OS, then use the SS3 app to remove the 'hijack' and then reboot again. No SS3. Just remember to do it from the 'stock' OS and not one of the others.
Don't do what I did with SS2 - from a non stock OS, remove SS and reboot. Ended up with a phone that never finished booting before it rebooted. Fortunately the emergency recovery mode built into the phone worked to recover it.

Is the issue you're having that when you're speaking to people on the phone you can't hear anything and they can't hear you? Cause on CM9 there should be no issues with using it as a phone as long as you don't enable bluetooth ever or use buttons on a headset connected to your phone. I haven't tried CM10 yet so I wouldn't know too much about that. Just for some extra info to save your time do not flash Liberty or Eclipse, they don't seem to work. The newest Maverick works fine.

Downloading Now. I just hope it's for the rooted .621 Non-Milestone hack. The Milestone hack (for root) is .604.

Update:
First I tried it without gapps. Everything booted fine, but there was no market nor would accounts/ sync let me add Google account.
So, I rebooted into recovery, which worked fine, and flashed gapps.
This time on boot, I actually got the Droid X welcome screen, was able to put in Google info, and market initiator ran and updated.
After that everything worked fine.
Tested Bluetooth, Messages, Gps and Calls. Didn't get chance to try Wifi yet, but I'm sure it works since everything-else does.
The only thing that Would be better is an updated Superuser. The 1 included will NOT update SU Binary. I think it's the old edify binary. Even by updating Superuser in the market WON'T help. Although an easy fix is to get RootUninstaller and uninstall Rom Superuser, then download new 1 from the market and install.
Keep up the hard work. Nice Rom.
Finally, does this works for any other gb kernel besides .621?
Anybody please tell us!
Nope, but maybe yes

Nope, but I may have a bad download as I forgot to check the Md5 sum before I flashed. Install was aborted. I can't try again right now because I have another phone to flash and have to go to bed early tonight.
And thank your for the review I've been waiting for a review like that I've created a couple roms and no one has have gave me so much input

No prob Kiladar. I think if someone is going to comment on someones work, they should at least review it and be as informative as possible. It makes it easier
on the devs to look at potential probs/fixes too.
Oh yea, I also got to looking into your system/app folder in your zip. The vending.apk is Not in there, which i would say is why I had to flash the gapps. Just wanted you to know.
Also there is no "boot.img" (which is kernel right?) in the new dwnload.
Right, I will update OP saying to flash gapps rather then say not needed

wifi works just fine with it, and I agree bout the updated superuser since you cant uninstall the one you have with it which means you also cant update to the new superuser because they are different volumes but over all nice ROM.:good:

I had it working on mine but my .605 was the .621/.605 deodexed hacked version cause I was on the .621 before I did the work around on the magic 5 route, originally I did the .604 work around but it should work on the .605 stock rooted, but then again I was also running the kernel for the .621 sooooo if the kernel is the key for running it maybe you cant.
Try another download, maybe you did get a bad DL

I tried this again but, I think the real problem is with my microSD card. I have subsequently tried to flash other roms and have had other aborts as well. I know that the md5's on those checked out. I was able to flash a cm9 based rom and got it set up just fine. All this from the same card on the same phone. Sooo I am attempting to format the card just in case I have bad sectors or something.
Luckily my DX is no longer activated and just keeps me from killing my SGS3 with flashes.:silly:

I hear ya, I had the same prob with sd card so i formatted mine as well, problem was still there though. whenever i tried to install a rom from sd card via rom manager the problem was i kept getting the message saying waiting for sd cart to mount then it would say error bla bla bla sending log file to cwm ect ect ect.... i dont know exactally how i fixed that, all i know is i installed another rom, like cm7 or cm9 for instance and after that whenever i went to back up rom it worked fine ever since.... maybe something flashes over correcting the sd card problem when you install a rom... I know rom manager checks to verify the marker on sd card and thats what your problem is I believe.
Try doing this, try installing a rom cm7/cm9 without making a backup (i know you could lose everything if it fails but its the only way i know that fixed mine) after you have installed cm7/9 go to rom manager and hit the Backup Current Rom it should reboot you to cwm recovery and make an auto backup, if it does this without throwing up the waiting for sd card to mount error stuff and it runs the backup program and then reboots you it should fix your sd card problems.....
Review this rom
this is by far a ROM with the least lag by far i tried liquid ICS and plenty others don't know what it is but the lag is really minimal runs really smooth i only have this for like 3 hours but will update soon
pls hit thanks if i helped
