Originally I was getting those "SD Card Removed" errors. I assumed it was from flashing a bunch of different roms.
I read a few posts saying flashing a bunch of roms will cause such a ting to happen.
So I do a full wipe in Clockwork.
I am installing the nightly, worked fine.
Then the 120dpi. smooth.
Then the Google Apps. Whenever it started to install, my touchpad would just restart. After several tries and more of the same, I do another wipe. No zip files are installing.
Just a restart when starting to install.
So I webos doctor.
So far so good.
When I try to install CM9, similar situation occurs as the zip files.
The install code starts wizzing by on my touchpad.
After a certain point, it freezes and reboots.
Several attempts; all the same.
Is there a way to fix this?
Sorry for the double post, but I figured out the problem.
This is mostly for any body if they run into this problem.
Turns out, the android partitions were corrupt, and webos doctor couldn't touch them.
In the preware beta feeds, there is an app called Tailor.
What it does is, allow you to view the partitions on your touchpad.
You can either delete the partitions or reformat them.
I choose to delete them and then doctor them back into the main drive space.
Afterwards, the install went flawlessly.
Any WebOS Doctor later than 3.0.0 doesn't touch the other partitions.
If you wish to use WebOS doctor, you can use 3.0.0 first for partitioning and then use 3.0.4 to upgrade.
Had issues like this when trying to install nightly over a cm7: a reboot immediately after the start of gapps flashing, successful flash of nightly, but a bootloop after... I guess it has something to do with compability between cm7 and cm9, because what helped me is totally uninstalling any android/moboot/cwm with ACMEUninstall and doing a fresh install with ACMEInstaller2. CWM backup and most of sdcard content remain intact, so you still can restore if it fails to. Hope it helps...

So I have failed...
I did an upgrade from Cyanogen 4.2.7.1 to 4.2.8 by using CM Updater, as always, and didn't bother with performing a backup or wiping.
This upgrade procedure used to work without any problems, but now I find my G1 telling me "The process android.process.acore has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again" and I'm not able to do much before the message pops up.
I can receive phone calls, but other than that I'm pretty much helpless.
What I have done so far, is to re-flash both with the same image, and 4.2.6 which I had on the sd card.
I have also tried the fix_permissions command, and the check/fix ext, but nothing has helped me so far.
What I was hoping for, was that somehow I could be able to at least start Mybackup Pro to perform a (last) backup of my messages (SMS/MMS) and my phone log, before I wipe and install 4.2.8 again, hopefully with better luck.
Or, is it possible to perform a "manual backup" of these items by accessing the sd card directly? I have an Apps partition, does any of these Items belong there where I can make a copy?
Or is it possible to flash an older Cyanogen ROM that would more likely work without the acore error, and let me run Mybackup?
My computer is running Linux (Ubuntu), I have no ADB access, but I am able to mount the sd card via the G1 (the notification bar is possible to access, and it seems that any thirdparty program that I may succeed in launching will not be affected by the acore error, but I have tried 30 times to pull up the app list to start mybackup but I'm hit with the acore error each time...).
Any hints are highly appreciated.
Thanks,
Christopher
I'm getting the same thing ...acore
This is my first post in a forum but long time reader of xda. I don't know the common lingo but know how to get around to do things to my goofy little phone. I did a google search on CM 4.2.8 and the acore error that brought me here.
I'm getting the same error even though I'm using MT3G. I was getting this error back in the past couple CM versions, kept doing an CM updates thinking next version would clean things up. The acore error continued on making calls, opening browser, opening market or etc. Eventually FC started happening. These occurances always happenned 8 to 20 hours after update/install of CM and light use of my phone.
Last night I decided to do a CM clean install to what the CM wiki or CM xda guided me to perform (flashed 1.5 nbh, FlashRec, 1.6 base and CM 4.2.8). I didn't bring back any old apps since I didn't have anything worth saving. Phone was running great untill making a call this afternoon ...got that dreaded "The process android.process.acore has stopped..." message again. I'm going to try another one of my older micro sd cards thinking my class 6 PNY might be crapping out. Hopefully someone might have some more information for us before I try this route. Anyone please help and guide us to the right information to correct this. Thanks, Greg.
This is proper step, do this when you get the chance..
1.Wipe everything
2.Install 1.6ADP Htc
3.Install cyan right after
4.reboot
5.should goto recovery again, now reboot once more
6.bam-back in action
Does anyone know if it is possible, with a Cyanogen ROM, to make a copy of a few system databases just by taking the SD card and inserting it into a card reader of a computer?
My SD card has three partitions: data, apps, swap.
I need a backup of
* messages (sms/mms)
* phone log (incoming/outgoing calls)
* browser bookmarks
If I wipe my phone, I will loose these... :-(

Or by booting into Recovery, and enter Terminal - can I somehow manually copy these data files from the phone to the SD card, and then restore them after a full "re-flash" with wipe and the works?
~Christopher
I was finally able to run MyBackupPro by using the search function - on the 15th try or something, MyBackupPro finally showed up as an application finding and it ran without problems. So I have now made a successful backup of the most important databases. I tried to start a few other applications by searching for them as well, but they never showed up in the results. Oh well, I guess I will just perform a wipe and reflash of latest Cyanogen ROM, and then start re-installing applications again.
~Christopher
Did this work for you? I have a G1 with same ver of CyanogenMod that started giving me the android.process.acore error to when trying to place a call. Wonder if there is a issues with Cyanogen's 4.2.8 & 4.2.8.1 mods...
I installed the latest CM9 nightly, and so far everything was more or less running smoothly... but I didn't realize the 50+ apps on SD bug was still present. No matter what I tired, I Was not able to do anything about this annoying mess. So I just chose to do a factory reset, then rebooted into webos and deleted everything in .android_secure.
However, when I booted back into Android, I found out that NOTHING got reset. All my settings, internal memory apps, etc are still there!
Is there any way to do a complete reset on CM9 and put it in a state as if I had just freshly installed it short of literally uninstalling and reinstalling it?

Aall, you have to do is a factory reset in clockwork mod....
You will also have to finish off the 3 finger method by wiping cache and dalvik cache, that should do it
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I997 using xda premium
Choosing "Reboot into Recovery" just reboots back into moboot, not clockwork. Pressing power+volup also sends me into WebOS recovery. There is no clockwork or android recovery option in moboot.
I don't see a way to enter clockwork.

If you dont see the option for clockworkmod in moboot, then it didnt install when you did the instal process. Most likely (because I think a lot of people are doing this) you downloaded the wrong Clockwork Recovery. You probably downloaded one that was named "recovery-tenderloin......" or something like that. You need the one that startes with "update......" I dont know the actual names. But when you get it, you can just use ACMEinstaller again, just like you did before to install it.

I was wondering why the ACMEInstaller2 deleted all the other zips but left the Clockwork one in the cminstall folder.
So is it safe to run the ACMEInstaller2 with only the clockword zip in the cminstall folder? It won't mess up anything else or complain that the CM file is missing? Or do I need to do an uninstall and reinstall again?
By the way, I have been meaning to ask. I know that the "sd card" is internal memory that both WebOS and Android share as a media folder, but if I choose to reformat/reset the SD card from within Android, will that delete anything from WebOS? I know it won't mess with WebOS itself or it's settings, but would it remove any of the music, videos, downloaded files, or anything else that was put there through WebOS? I don't know if deleting the contents of the .android_secure folder were enough to "reset" my CM9 install, or at least anything it put on the SD card. Is there a way to just delete anything only Android/CM9 put on the SD card partition and not anything WebOS or it's apps put there?

It left clockwork mod there because it didnt install. It installed everything else. Delete the old one you had in your cminstall folder and put the new one there and just run ACMEinstaller like you did before. You dont need to have the other stuff in the folder. Just the clockwork mod. You will be fine. Once its done you should see Clockwork Mod in moboot.
As far as the sd card, yes, anything you delete in Android on the sd card will be deleted on webOS as well and visa versa. What are you wanting to "reset"? You can do a factory reset after you get clockwork mod on there.
I posted this on rootzwiki, but I'm hoping someone here will help guide me back.
I have CM9 installed, which was working great except that I kept having "not enough memory" errors when trying to install apps from the Market.
I went to the CM7 sdcard problem fixes thread, found here:
http://rootzwiki.com/topic/13277-cm7-fixes-for-sdcard-issues/
These fixes work for CM7 and 9, so there is no compatibility issue there.
I attempted to expand the data partition by 1gb by flashing the correct .zip. However, after waiting 1.5 hours, with no change in the screen, I was forced to reboot it. I don't think I was too mistaken for thinking otherwise. No error message was given.
Now:
1. It reboots into CM9 okay, except the "checking SDcard" sign is on forever. Thus no access to the SDCard.
2. It won't reboot into WebOS anymore. It stays at the hp icon. This is most concerning to me, because to me it implies that something more than then Android install is broken now.
3. In Clockwork Recovery, it won't allow me to restore! Selecting that option just freezes CWM. However, it will allow me to browse the sdcard contents when selecting "install from zip"
4. From CWM, I can mount USB access and see all contents of the SDCard.
5. I did some searching, and one post suggested removing fsck_msdos from system/bin. I did this, which allowed me to access the SDCard in CM9 as this circumvented the SDcard checking. This obviously is not the right solution, so I restored it.
Next steps please?
I've got backups so the data isn't so important.
I think the sdcard partitioning is wonky due to the aborted memory expansion attempt, so I'm not sure running ACMEuninstaller will fix that.
I'm thinking I attempt to run ACMEUninstaller first, followed by WebOSdoctor if it won't boot into WebOS?
Take a look at this guide : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1426244
Yup, ended up doing that and looks like it's doing well.
Basically jacked up the storage partition so badly there were an infinite # of errors. Because WebOS uses that same storage for some of its files, couldn't boot either.
I've had to do it 3 times already.
It's a big PITA, but it works....... If your partitions get fracked, I've found this to be the best option.
How to find back the lost memory space after uninstalling CM9 & reflashing webos3.05?
I just wanted to upgrade the cm9 on my touchpad 16GB to cm11. What I did is:
1. Uninstall cm9 using ACMEUninstaller.
2. Reflash the device using webos doctor 3.05.
After writing to the device for a while (with a chip shown on the screen), webos doctor said "Unable to reset the device". I manually reset the device, and it did start the webos nicely. But when I check the device information, I found the available memory is only 2.9GB! I installed cm9 one or two years ago with ClockworkMod, but I did nothing to uninstall it after removing cm9. Is that the reason some memory got lost? Can I find it back? Any input will be appreciated.:cyclops:

[ROM GUIDE]How to install Android 4.4.x with Jcsullins TPtoolbox "The Super Easy Way"
I have two HP Touchpads, a 16GB and a 32GB. Both have CM installed by me. The 16 ran for about a month and then crashed & won't reboot ("unfortunately Trebuchet has stopped"). It seems that /cache is corrupted but I have tried every function of TPToolbox and TWRP to repair delete resize or wipe and each one fails due to /cache problems. Reinstall also fails. Grateful for any insight / assistance.
Same problems on my wife's old unit. Tried almost every option and no go on retreading this tire. What's sad is if WebOS Recovery was still available, this would be an easy fix, but all my attempts running this process and doing a complete reset back to webOS have also filed. WebOS partially works, but repartitioning using Preware tools (Tailor) have also failed to fix corrupt storage.
Suspect I'll need Linux to ADM and reformat the partitions, but no go with this either and would love some help from some Linux junkie who may have a suggest.
Maybe someone can help both of us and please let us know if you make progress and I'll do same.

webOS recovery doesn't help me - reinstall fails
I can still boot webOS but it doesn't have much space. I bought a 32GB motherboard and am going to try installing it.
