What version of Webos are you running?
It is probably because you have Android installed. Uninstall Android after making a backup and you should be good to go .
Hope this helps .

Yes you you will lose everything but that is the point in order for ota (over the air ) update. Copy all of your personal files to your computer and the nandroid backup you are going to make . Then after you have removed Android and updated Webos reinstall Android like you did the first time with ACMEInstaller2. Don't worry I have copies of all the files you will need ie moboot , gapps, and cmw with links in another post .
If you need to pm me .
Hope this helps to put your mind at rest.

Is there a benefit in updating WebOS? I keep thinking I will use WebOS to do a video call, or to show off Glimpse, but honestly I haven't had much of a need for Skype and I am increasingly happy with CM9. If and when it goes to Jelly Bean I seriously doubt I will ever boot back over to WebOS.

I use it for Skype and to update the latest preware apps but for the rest of the time (95%) I use Android.
it only takes 5 minutes to uninstall and 15 to reinstall. Do it when your bored.

I had no problems updating to 3.0.5. I did lose moboot, but that was an easy reinstall with Acmeinstaller. All my android files were untouched.
I would use webos more if it had more apps available. The battery life is much better than android, and the camera works. I use it for Skype. The preware tweaks really make a difference also.
Having a dual boot tablet is why I like the touchpad so much.

If you have any Kernel tweaks installed, they need to be removed. This fixed the install issue for me.

Dextermorph @ gmail if you'd email them. Ill end up doing it just not today.

Oops... it just hit me you're referring to the new open webOS...

[Q] Overclocking posible with version 3.0.4 on HP Touchpad?

Hello people i wanted to overclock my touchpad but i updated to ver. 3.0.4 it will now tell me that the method is obsolete anyone know how to get pass this, another method maby? Help would be greatly appreciated.
Preware?
Sent from my PG86100 using XDA App
Yes I am talking about preware, it wont let me downlad or install some stuff because its testing versions/unsafe i am well aware of the risk but i still want to continue
I'm on version 3.0.4 and used the "stable" kernel from Preware... And govnah to overclock it..
Id say watch a video tutorial on YouTube to make sure you have Preware installed correctly/trouble shoot what is causing your error

ok question did you use the tutorial on xda or did you use a youtube video because i am useing the xda tutorial i have preware installed can you give me the info of the name and adress of this safe kernal

Testing.preware.org is the official instructions for running testing preware feeds. Pretty important to visit there and understand why they made it harder to use alpha/beta feeds.
Sent from my PG86100 using Tapatalk
I would have to agree with contradude. Alpha and beta releases of software on the touchpad do have serious risks involved. When using android and having a problem, one can always just reflash the install when things go south. If you screw up on the webos side, you better have a good working knowledge of the linux command line as there be large dragons ahead. I currently run uberkernel and govnah to get stable performance at 1.5 gHz. The TP is fast and smooth at those settings and I see no upside to pushing the envelope as everything runs as it should now.

preware still works under 3.0.4
not sure what you're getting at

I just saw the updated uberkernel and installed it. We now have the 1.7 GHz option as well as 1.5. This was released since my last post. The feeds I was refering to were the experimental feeds for pushing beyond the uberkernel limits.
-- Sent from my TouchPad using Communities
The latest uberkernel is also a BETA feed.
So you need to look at Webos Internals Testing Feeds , for the new procedure. Read this page carefully.
As Moshe so nicely put it, this is the entrance to the Dragons lair.

In webOs, apply the tweaks to make it faster (logging, preware, etc.). The instructions are in the forum.
I find webos fast with no lagging. I have Uberkernel Oc'd to 1.7 max, 384 min.
In android, I use cm9 alpha 2, and/or Cherry Kang. They both work well.
Please remember in order to upgrade your WebOs to the latest you have to remove any kernel tweaks first then re-apply after you upgrade.
What if I have CM7 alpha 3.5 already on my touchpad? Can I install the WebOS update or will it remove CM7?

You may have to run ACMEInstaller again after updating WebOS. CM will still be there, its just moboot is not working so you will have to reinstall it using ACMEInstaller.
Update WebOS then re-run ACMEInstaller

You might have to doctor.
You can try re-installing moboot. Maybe that'll fix it.
Sounds like you might have removed the webos uimage when cleaning out moboot. If so, a trip to webos doctor will be required.

Yes. Didn't you notice the name change?:silly:
Op. Care to tell us anything else other than 'I did it'. Maybe the process, make a guide, anything at all that would make the community better?
Lol. Sorry. There is a ROM in the original development section that let's you dual boot. You can download the boot image from there.

Do you have a custom ROM and Ubuntu or stock ROM with Ubuntu?
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app
AOKP 4.2 and Ubuntu. I was running the Multi ROM from the Original Android Development section. It does just that, lets you running several ROMS. I don't have much of a need other than AOKP and Ubuntu but it's awesome you can choose which ROM to boot. I wound up screwing up everything last night by messing around. I wiped my entire tab. I loaded Ubuntu on my PC and managed to reinstall Ubuntu on my tablet, while wiping out everything. So now I have to redo everything. That's what I get for messing around with things I have no idea about. But for me thats the only way I learn.
If you want to run Ubuntu too, check out the Multi ROM. Works very well for me and seems like for quite a number of others.

Ready to change my old android 4.0 for 4.2.2

Hi people!!!
I'm ready to change my old android 4.0 for a new one, i'm thinking in 4.2.2 because it's newer and i think that has less bugs that this version.
But i'm worried about my apps, and services, like my gps points and my advace in my games and download again everything!!!
So, i want to know if exist any app to avoid download all again, and keep my info, like my notes, my downloads and everything.
Thanks in advance for the help!!!

Google will back up all of your apps if you opted to do so. Make a nandroid back up in recovery, as well as a TiBu backup. Then when you isntall 4.2.2 you should be able to recover everything with those 3 backups.

Going from 4.0 to 4.2.2 could cause issues though so be warned that after you restore your data you could encounter FC's. Not saying it will happen but there is always a chance. Especially considering that there is a completely different partition layout between where you are and where you are wanting to go.

Well wouldn't he just flash 4.2.2 twice, then the gapps, and restore non-system apps and be fine?

Yes that would work perfectly as far as restoring apps. However the restore of user data for the apps so he has his last save point on a game or is already logged into Facebook might be a different story. With the use of the /datadata partition in JB it could cause issues. But it might not I really don't know.

Good point, didn't think of that. I would think the apps should be able to find the correct path though when restoring backups from ICS to JB...worst comes to worst just move it manually

I know that cm10.1 has a symbolic link, data/data >> datadata, that gets created when you flash it. I imagine that is only there to allow legacy settings to work.

Thanks for the answers, its really helpfull for me.
Mmm i think that it's better download all again, after that generate a issues in device, because it's just why i'm changing my android version jeje to avoid problems and bugs.
So, i want just one answer, what it's better for me.
Make that backup and restore with all its problems, or just download all my apps again and lose the data.
Remember i am a noob in this world, and i think that i can afford the time of install all again.
Thank forum, it's just a lot of help for me.

Try both out. I would start by doing all your backups and then upgrade and try to restore your data. If it works then go with it. If you have problems resort to the other option.
