32GB 3G Touchpad with factory installed Android 2.3.3 - TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello everyone.
Last week I got access to an old supposedly dead touchpad lying at my friends office. Had to fiddle with it for almost a day and a half to get it running as it was totally out of charge.
Tried all possible combinations of VolUp, VolDown, Home but it just would not start initially, even after leaving it for charging for whole night using the original charger.
Anyhow once it booted, to my surprise it had Android 2.3.3 preinstalled. The initialy few sec boot screen showed HP logo with few cmd lines mentioning topaz etc etc.
The few details in the back are as below...
Prototype - NfS
FB35UA-EVT
CPU - APQ80680(64M)Rev.2
So anyone around have been able to take a complete back of the original rom and then upgrade to CM9/Cm10?
I tried following the common steps for upgrading from WebOS to CMx but none works for obvious reasons.
I am currently trying to get help on how to install mboot and tenderlionCWM, hence any pointer would be of great help. FYI the terminal does not give SU access either.
Update 1 - Out of desperation, I ran the JC tool tpdebrick, well didn't went good, I believe.... the outcome is that the device does not show any activity on screen and under windows device manager it either shows Android or QHSUSB_DLOAD!!!

Hi, never heard of the hp touchpad coming with factory pre installed android, and j's debrick is i think only for something that is lifeless..
Anyway what I would suggest is this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1426244 paying particular attention to the first post on page 12. And with luck you will have a working TP.
PM if you want /need further assistance.

followed the give guid to restore to factory, however no positive results.
I got stuck on the first step itself as the PC shows the device as an Android device., Hence Novacom is unable to find the device.
The touchpad device property is as below.
Bus 002 Device 030: ID 18d1:d00d Google Inc.
I had to install the google usb drivers with tweaked inf as mentioned else where in the forums. The only difference was that the device id is different than the ones posted here.
I went ahead and tried placing the command
adb devices
but that too shows no device connected, even though the PC device manager shows it connect with drivers.
pls suggest possible wayouts

Android 2.3.3?, is there any pictures we can see? Pretty please.
Have you tried installing a camera launcher to see if the drivers are there?

Well I wish I did a rom backup before moving forward, however as I had updated in my OP, Im in a brick situation right now, with no signs of life.
For last two days I am running tpdebrick by JC to revive it, but alas no positive signs for now.
P.S. For once when it did switch on, yes the stock camera was running, but the images were way below normal.

There were a select few Touchpads that accidentally shipped with Froyo 2.2 which was likely being used to test the hardware before WebOS was completed for it. But I've never heard of one shipping with GB, any CM7 ROMs for this were based on 2.3.7 IIRC.

I used the link above on a TP I bricked, did not work. What revived it was the TPdebrick following procedure
http://rootzwiki.com/topic/38786-tpdebrick-v004/

your tp might be valuable to developers. i would contact them and see if theres some system files on it they could use.
a very few prototype models had android installed on them, but they were never meant for the public. however a select few did manage to get out into the wild. this one you have is quite rare.
edit: never mind, i see you've bricked it. could have had some potential useful files on there

I'm guessing TP Debrick won't work for you because you're in Google Inc. mode already. A little modding of the tpdebrick script to skip the first steps would probably solve this problem.
I will attempt if no one beats me to it.

bonkers! I never realised that it was this a rare device . I had been careless handling this and overconfident in putting custom roms etc.
Anyway I spent the day last in running the tpdebrick004 again and again with different ways. Prior to that our fiddling with webdoctor, novaterm etc all failed.

And that is where I am stuck right now... Hope this is of some help in figuring out the next steps...

your device has different partitioning and no webos installed. the tpdebrick and the methods for installing the CM7/9/10 won't work for you.
when you have started messing with tpdebrick, webos doctor you have probably bricked the device for good and every valuable part of software that has been shipped with this prototype rom you had is lost.

maybe, though webdoctor was not able to connect, however how one would know that the partitioning was different. do excuse my lame Q

Because it didn't have web os.

I'm having the exact same issue on a 32GB 3G version of the Touchpad.
It always fails at the A6 flashing...

If you guys want to get these fixed, PM jcsullins and ask him to join you on IRC.

There are andriod 2.2.1 /2.3.3/2.3.4 os version for Touchpads in 2011(Never released).Andriod Version can flash back to webos. But need PalmWinDfuUtil/NovaDeviceInstaller/webos Tar files..etc
If use Tpdebrick 004 run to All Done. Will see flower type on the screen (The means into Revoery mode). Must use Nova Device Installer to flash the device.(Can not use doctor). But it will lost Wifi address and need to rewrite it....

Cannot get past Fastboot using TPDEBRICK 004
I posted the problem on RootzWiki, but essentially my 32GB 3G TP does not get past Fastboot:
Sending CloseFlush...
Done writing files.
Resetting device...
Requesting Reset...
Waiting for fastboot mode...
fastboot mode not found

Fastboot will work to communicate with the TP, but I don't know enough to troubleshoot the debrick scripts on my own.
lsusb reveals:
Bus 002 Device 015: ID 05c6:9008 Qualcomm, Inc. Gobi Wireless Modem (QDL mode)
Is there anything that can be done manually via command line using fastboot? I'm not a Linux newbie, but i'm not a developer either.
So, I started digging because i'm curious...
in the tpdebrick script found the following:
devid_fastboot="18d1:d00d"
also found this:
echo "Reseting device..."
perl qdload.pl --lreset
echo "Waiting for fastboot mode..."
if ! `check_usbdevs 60 ${devid_fastboot}`
then
echo "fastboot mode not found"
echo "Aborted."
exit 1
fi
echo "Loading TPToolbox-Headless ..."
fastboot flash bootmem TPToolbox-Headless-v004
if [ $? -ne 0 ];
then
echo "TPToolbox-Headless load failed"
echo "Aborted."
exit 1
fi
So I sort of understand the script, but again i'm not a developer...
When I manually execute the perl command, I get the following result (is this a problem?):
[email protected]:~/Downloads/tpdebrick-v004# perl qdload.pl --lreset
Requesting Reset...
Invalid Response: 03 00 06
If the Invalid Response is correct, then it appears to be failing to execute the fastboot with the check_usbdevs devid.
Is there anyway to check the usbdevs and/or devid, and that these are correct?

[Q] KFHD 7" Lost in trying to recover from boot loop, on Linux

I was given a kindle fire hd 7 that is stuck in a boot loop. My friend gave up trying to root it and just gave it to me in its borked state. What he told me he did was root the device then used the one click apk, from that point on its been stuck in a boot loop. Past that he is not sure what he did. Fastboot does not recognize it unless using the 0x1949.
I am on Linux and have no simple access to a windows box, I have tried issuing fast boot commands to put a new system recovery and boot img on the device but, all I end up with is either a fastboot loop or the kindle loop. I am lost trying to sort out what I should be trying next or if this is just a brick at this point. Looking for some advice as to where to go now? Does anyone have a link to a good known working system recovery boot images or to a linux guide that shows what to do when its not recognized and how to restore? I took the ones from KFHD package and have tried every combo of images they had including each versions system.img and system2.img, all with the same results. I can post any other info needed to help diagnose the issue, also adb does not recognize the device either.

The order of the fastboot commands is the order that I issued them when trying to restore the KFHD7. Can anyone shed some light on what I am missing here or what I am doing wrong. I have never had so much issue as I have trying to fix this device. I always end up with the kindlefire logo looping. Thanks a bunch for any help with this.

The order of the fastboot commands is the order that I issued them when trying to restore the KFHD7. Can anyone shed some light on what I am missing here or what I am doing wrong. I have never had so much issue as I have trying to fix this device. I always end up with the kindlefire logo looping. Thanks a bunch for any help with this.

Yes I am and I showed the output from the device in the lsusb portion. I get to the fastboot screen. It shows the output above stating its seeing it. Says its OK on each step for uploading the files.
[Edit:] Where did you get the partition images you're trying to restore?

I got them from the 7" Dev board inside the KFHD System.img Restore Tool

And just to confirm I am not dense this is the model number of the kindle X43Z60
Are there different images I should be using? Are the commands wrong?

It's hard to tell. With no way to check the md5 on the images you're restoring, who knows what you're dealing with. I can tell you that the boot and recovery partitions should be exactly the same size. Your outputs seem to differ, but I haven't taken the time to convert 8192kb to bytes to know for sure.

Okay, let me try and explain this to you. In your output from the OP you have the following listed for the boot and recovery images...
Code:
fastboot -i 0x1949 flash recovery recovery.img
target reported max download size of 1006632960 bytes

As I said before, the boot and recovery images should be the exact same size. When you convert 8192KB to bytes, you get 8388608B, which is obviously different from 8390656B. You should probably check your downloads and make sure you have the right ones.
That being said, I'd like to draw your attention to the following two lines of code posted above...
Code:
...
fastboot -i 0x1949 flash recovery recovery.img
...
fastboot -i 0x1949 boot boot.img
...
Don't you think it would work better if it looked like this?
Code:
...
fastboot -i 0x1949 flash recovery recovery.img
...
fastboot -i 0x1949 flash boot boot.img
...
@soupmagnet
Thanks!!! You spotted the issue cant believe I was missing that every time.
It showed the correct sizes once I added flash Thanks again.

Yes, I know.
Maybe, there is a solution somewhere...I search, read a lot but not find.
I'm not optimistic a fix will ever come, but you never know.

I have created an Ubuntu Live CD with all the necessary files to Debrick the Tablet from TP Debrick v005 by jcsullins.
If there is any Tablet that did not finished the flash process, run this Live CD and perform the Debrick again.
If you do not know the Tablet model do the following:
Flash using the 16 GB, then connect to charger. If the home LED does not come on after some time then.
Flash using the 32 GB, then connect to charger. If no LED light then
Flash using the 64 GB.

[Q] Unbrick Hard Brick AT&T Note 3

So i hard bricked my at&t Note 3 when i was in Odin. Looked like Odin froze so i unplugged it half way thru and tried to get back into download mode and NOTHING! Black screen ... can't get into download mode, power device on or nothing. Never bricked a device in all the years i've been rooting and tried everything. Unfortuantly, i still can't get this to work on Linux system and just want to know im doing things right. I placed the img on sd card and inserted it with thumb usb and that's fine. When i type in dmesg | tail i get this ...

bash: path_to_debrick.img: No such file or directory
Really no idea what im doing to not get this work but i'm sure it's something simple. I just want to get back into download mode and then i'll be straight and can Odin my files to recover. Unfortuantely i can't get back in download mode!
Do i need MJ5 img since i was on MJ5 then did UNOFFICIAL KK update and was running DynamicKat when this happened?
Also i am using a SanDisk Elevate 32GB sdhc card on my 32 Note 3 so i know the cards not the problem. It's brand new and reads fine otherwise.
Please let me know if i'm doing anything wrong as i've been working on this for 48 hours and just need my phone back! lol
Thanks ... I really appreciate it!
I'm just going to bite my tongue on this one and help you.
"<path_to_debrick.img>" is just a place holder, you have to actually put the path of the debrick.img file you loaded onto your device, not <path_to_debrick.img>

Any help would be appreciated. I even tried it twice with no luck. Also my new 32gb sd card won't read now when i put it reader into usb. No pop up or anything? Thanks guys.
***Edited*** also i was on MJ5 then did the Unofficial "Jump from Jellybean to kk" ... which image would i need then? And if someone has it can they send it to me please!
Something didn't go right with the debrick image writing. That fdisk command should have listed all the partitions on that disk, with should be 20+, and you are only seeing one.
Re-run writing the debrick image. Sometimes it fails on the first few tries.

You're not inputting the command to write the image correctly.
The last part should be of=/dev/sdb NOT of=/dev/sdb1. Lose the 1
You really didn't read the hard debrick OPs instructions closely. he explicitly says to ignore the partition number, being the 1, because you are overwriting the current partitions.
Correcting that issue with the command should write the image correctly, and you should be good to go from there

Funny you said that because i did just rewrite it twice without the 1 just as sdb and when i unplugged it and plugged it back into usb i did recieve about 6 pop ups but were all sd card readers showing on my desktop like i had 6 different usb readers with different size sd cards some
Here's the correct screenshot of whole desktop. Also battery was 65% when this all happened but hasn't been used since in last 2 days of trying to fix it so see no need why the battery would be dead, correct? I could have phone on for 2 days and not touch it and wouldn't be dead. Would still be at about 40-50% i would assume if left on untouched for a few days. I just know i could do this and see no reason why this shouldn't work. Do i need the MJ5 img or something since i was on that with unofficial KK on dynamickat?

It looks like one of the partitions isn't being written correctly on the SD card for some reason.
How many partitions is the fdisk command showing?

Well today must be my day. I called to get replacement phone and girl was real cool and said I could just pick one up here locally at the support center. Luckily dude at support center was just as cool and just pretty much swapped it right out without even trying another battery or doing tests. However when he put my battery in replacement Note i stilll had 65% so who knows wtf i did. Lesson learned ... never pull out early when Odin looks like it freezes for a few mins. Just in time for the official KK root now that I'm actually on Official KK stock rom. Thanks again for all your help. Much appreciated!

Amazon Fire 7-inch tablet rooting error messages

Hi, I recently updated my Amazon Fire 7" 5th Gen tablet to the latest system update & prior to this the tablet had already been rooted when it was running Android 5.0.1, but now the newer update has un-rooted the device and I am having difficulties re-rooting the device as now I am receiving some error messages in the Amazon Fire Tablet CMD Tool and I am unsure about what I have to do to resolve the issue....Below is a copy of the error messages I am receiving:

Thank you shabuboy, I will read through the thread and see if any of the information can help me....:good:
I've read through the links enlisted and watched the tutorials but I've still not been able to root my device as I continue to get the same error message ...I wish now I had not updated to Android 5.1.1 and at this point I think I'm going to give up until the next update or so ....
If you followed the procedures for 5.1.1 and/or used the supertool and still did not work, I would attempt to disable OTAs at the least.

Yes I have disabled the OTAs now, as well as this I also found another XDA user who's having the same problem with he's device: http://forum.xda-developers.com/hd8-hd10/help/looking-help-rooting-kindle-5th-gen-v5-t3285665 & I've contacted him to see if he has found a solution to his, hopefully he'll get back to me.

Have your tried doing a restore with the 5.1.1 stock firmware before proceeding with the root process?
I may try this option next
I may be forced to try this option next, I'll give a feedback on the results once I've done this although I did factory restore obviously to no avail as once the update has been done it cannot be downgraded....
Good news!!!! I now have full root access/super user privileges
***UPDATE***
I now have full root access to my Amazon device, I think that some of the files that were giving the error messages were corrupted and therefore last night I re-installed/restored the android 5.1.1 firmware to the tablet and this resolved the problem …Thank you both "shabuboy & thekrakah", I much appreciate your contribution to my query and thankfully now my device is operating correctly....
