I wanted to ask this in the developers thread, but they said I needed 5 posts before I can post in the development sections. I downloaded the 12.18 ICS CM 9 rom, and I think its great. My question is where is android market, or how do I put apps on this thing?

It's downloadable via a seperate package called gapps (google apps). You can get it on the CM ( http://www.cyanogenmod.com/ ) site. You want the ics version of course. They may be running a specific gapps release (from the cm site), you'd have to search at least the last few pages of the thread.
There's also a.link on hashcodes site.

Thanks, ill look into it as soon as I get home from work...
A side note: For the alpha, I'm bundling GApps with the ROM. I know this is not common policy, however it will solve some issues with upgrading from build to build and I can keep GTalk out for the time being (it crashes continuously due to camera access).
I ran into that problem myself, forgot about loading the gapps i flashed back to liberty, I will try it again later tonight.
So do I just install the ics zip, and then go back into recovery and install the gapps zip?
Flash ICS and then the apps and do a wipe of data and cache.

Aight cool...im good to go now lol
Got it to work only thing I am hating is the camera not working. I tried using camera zoom fx but that didn't work either but I think its because its not compatible with ICS yet? But other then that I am loving it, it runs like butter.

No software camera will work until Hashcode re-writes the stock camera. All the after market camera applications run off the stock camera.

Turn off Bluetooth and sound will be back! It's a known bug.
Got a woot deal on a 32GB Touchpad for $200 which I want to geek it out to one of these custom ICS roms. The Classicnerd ICS Butta HD rom sure looks solid and popular but most of the guides I found show how to get a Gingerbread rom on it and not an ICS one. I use Cyanogenmod for my mobile but they dont have a stable rom for the Touchpad, so this Butta one looks good and is updated often.
Can you do a custom ICS rom on a fresh Touchpad? Was going to use this guide:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DJ57i2d7NBY
But it seems out of date, plus I saw some posts about the ACMEInstaller2 now...sounds like I need that one?
I've been root/recovery/rom'n mobile phones since my G1 days but this is my first tablet and I want to make sure I get it right. Any guide/advise for this tablet noob and I would be very thankful for that!
Nice, a new ROM. can't wait to try it out.

Go easy on him, he is new to XDA. Just for future reference, try posting new threads general or Q & A if your not a developer or posting some new development.
it's going to be the same but you need to use acme2 instead of 1, and i recommend using the CM9 latest nightly (see the other touchpad threads) instead of whatever version of ICS that video shows.
You can use acme installer 1 to load CWM recovery and moboot without a rom. ( confirmed I have done this). Before you do make sure there is rom on a webos file of your choosing and flash it once you have CWM. You could download a rom into a designated file on webos later too but if you have one ready it would be faster. Butta, cm9, AOKP all good roms.

Er...you may be in the wrong forum...
I have found the CM9 nightly to be the most stable for playing games. I've tried the CM10 and others but as soon as I launch a online game, the TP will generally freeze up.
I play a game called "Tanked" which is online and a great tank killing game against other players. Lots of fun...great graphics, and addicting.
If someone has a suggestion as to a more stable, yet fast rom for this type of gaming, please indicate which you use. I will try and load it up and give you a quick review of stability vs the cm9.
Thanks

Same here. My kids love playing games and I have problem with the T-pad crashing on CM10. I've tried every CM10 ROM available. Each has it's own unique advantanges, but hate seeing Tp constantly crash to mboot.
After rolling back to CM9 nightly, I am not longer having this problem. It's not as smooth as CM10, but kids are happy.
Thanks the Dev for trying to port JB. Hope they continue to get things fully straighten out.
Best roms
This One

Bug free?
Mic works
Camera works
I'm surprised there aren't more posts in this thread..BUT...
I go from CM9 nightly to nightly and they seem to be the best. Very smooth and non-problematic (for the most part).
I use unofficial cm10 03/08. Works great for me.
I would like to try different ROMs, but I can't seem to find one as stable as CM, any ideas?

You may use RandomROM OR Schizoid OR AOKPCM10REMIX_DEC_0412.
These are all the most stable that I have tried
I am using CDMoncrieff 's CM10.1, AOSP version. It's good enough that I'll be using it as my daily driver. I don't use Bluetooth (as far as I know, it's the only thing not working), so that doesn't affect me.

I am now using SGA'S 4.2.2, 04/02 version. Applied the hd zip, and it does everything I need.
Battery life is incredibly good.
Hello, I just decided to put Android on my touchpad, but I don't know which ROM to go with first. I just want something with the best features available while being stable, I don't know if I should go with CM9 or CM10 since from what I see the CM10 ROM's seem to be more buggy? As-well as which Android version, since the latest is 4.2.2 but it still seems to be in its early stages of development.
Any help is appreciated.

Thanks for the answer, I flashed it on my touchpad, however I noticed that flash is really buggy on CM10, it just gives me some horizontal lines, and when I full screen it theres only like a 10% chance of it working, since most of the time its just a black screen or it just flickers over and over and freezes, sometimes its even crashed my touchpad. Would it be best to go to a CM9 rom, or is there some work-around for this problem?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.Hello all thank you for you time. I'm running cm10.1 unofficial nightly build 05.22.13 on my touchpad with the latest adobe flash apk and Firefox app from Googleplay.
The issue that I'm having is my display would go to sleep as configure per my display setting while I'm streaming flash content at full screen. Not sure why this is happening and not sure if this is just my device. I didn't have this issue with cm9. Only notice this with cm10 and now 10.1. Theodd thing is that this issue is also happening with my nook color and nexus 7 with cm10.1
My current work around is setting display to time out 30 mins and touch the display every now and then.
Any help would be greatly appreciated
Thanks again

Flash has never worked well on 4.1+ ROMs on the Touchpad in my experience. Flash isn't supported on 4.1+ but on other devices its still smooth so its a Touchpad Android issue not a Flash issue.
If you want Flash stay with CM9. I went back to CM9 after being on CM10 a while because I wanted stable Flash and couldn't really think of any new CM10 features that I needed.

First and foremost thank you for your input. It is true that flash is no longer supported on 4.1 + but it can and should be stable once installed. One example I can provide is with my nexus seven. With stock rom and latest flash APk installed it runs Smoth no problem but when it is rooted and custom rom installed display issue occurs. There must be some config in the rom where display would remain awake when certain apps are running at full screen. Also its hard to see that its a touch pad issue because this is happening to other devices that I've installed custom 4.1+ rom. I'm currently back with cm9. For stability until cm 10.1 is more stable will switch.

Flash runs smooth on my Droid3 with CM10.1 even though the rom is far from stable. Also runs well on the Razr with stock 4.1.2 update. Its just on the Touchpad that 4.1+ have issues with flash in my experience.

Hi everyone,
I recently installed android on my friend's Touch Pad. Which ROM do you recommend as the most stable/usable ROM? (While being new and hopefully rather current as - like Android 4.1 or 4.2). My friend is definitely not familiar with flashing or anything like that, but she knows how to use android. As I will be moving out of the state at the end of this week, I want to leave her with a good ROM that will be nice and stable and easy for her to use. What do you all suggest? Thanks!
Tough one just have to flash them all and test I would go for cm10 night lies because they'll constantly update it and all you have to do is go into settings and update it.

Thanks, I'm trying a couple. I had a 4.2.2 mashup of CM, AOKP, and PA. It was a bit buggy, and probably too confusing for my friend. She does really like the PIE controls though so I'm trying to get a stable one with those. If not I'll just go for the CM10 nightlies probably. Thank you sir!
for me, the most stable roms are the standard CM9 nightlies.
they benchmark higher than any of the 4.2.2 builds, and has working bluetooth and no UI issues as noted on the CM10 and CM10.1 builds.
every few weeks I backup my HP touchpad and install some of the latest roms and always come back to CM9. it just works better, and best of all, it has a better UI (while the tablet UI mod helps with CM10 and 10.1, it does not fix all of the issues. and for CM10.1 there is no 120dpi so you are stuck with everything being oversized for the screen
while with cm9 all you need is the CWM flashable 120dpi patch which still works with the latest nightly builds and takes care of any market place issues.
Overall for everyday use, CM9 is still the way to go.
I attached the 120dpi patch that I use. It only works on CM9

I've used both CM9 & CM10 and found them to be very stable.
I downloaded. And installed the LCD density trick. Fonts are too small for me. How can I undo it?

If you are on CM10 and the 120dpi is too small, to undo it flash the 160dpi file
the CWM dpi patches are the only ones that have worked for me, I have tried android 4.1 and 4.2 and the only recommendations for adjusting the dpi is using apps from the market place and all of the recommended ones for me have not worked, most causes the rom to not boot fully.
The main thing holding me back from going to anything higher than CM9, is the lack of stable bluetooth support, the new android 4.1+ UI that is just a more screen space wasting version of the cellphone UI (not tablet optimized at all), and the issue with no 120DPI mod working with it.
Have been using CM9 for a long time with no complaints other than battery life. I think there may be some kernels that are better, but I like when the battery runs out and my kids have to put it down. A timer of sorts. I have not found a combination that can compare to WebOS for battery life. But, Android has all the latest stuff now for the kids, so, Android it is. I still use WebOS, though, when I can.
CM10.1 nightlies by milaq have been very stable for me. I experienced random crashing of the default browser in CM9 nightlies but none in CM10.1.
Obviously the missing Bluetooth in CM10.1 may be an issue for some but I haven't really used BT for anything.
