hello everybody,
today i installed the cm7 on my tp and as i rebooted it to install a next rom, the screen is now stuck at the main screen of moboot 0.3.5
the side buttons are moving just fine up and down and down up, but the power button will not work to select the option such as boot clockworkmod, boot cyanogen mod.
the power key does work fine because it was working fine during cm7
im not sure whats going on, so if somebody can help me it would be great thank you
I always use the Home button in Moboot to make the selection.
I tried to install cm9 on my touchpad and I followed this tutorial: http://www.webosnation.com/how-install-cyanogenmod-9-android-your-touchpad?page=1
I have a problem, I followed each step and everything went great till the double penguins came up. The first time I tried this, the touchpad rebooted itself to WebOS, so I shut it down, hold the power button and volume up button, and I proceeded the whole "cmd" part for the second time. The double penguins appeared and I realised it stopped. I looked and it wrote that the cm9 filename was wrong...it had to begin with update-cm . So I waited for the device to reboot again so that I could change the name of the zip file, however the screen is stuck. There is a black screen and a lot of text. Everytime I push a button, there is a writing on it.
For example, when I push the volume up buttong this comes up:
^[[4~[ 2432.551116] gpio-keys: volume up button pressed
[ 2432.701070] gpio-keys: volume up button released
I tried to reboot it but the device does not shut down. It is stuck, and everytime I push a button, it just writes that I pressed and released the button.
I tried to download WebOS Doctor, but I cannot find a valid download link, and I do not think this will help, because I cannot shut down the device!
HELP!!

Have you tried pushing power and home buttons at the same time for about 15 seconds to hard reboot the device? that may help you go back to web OS and redo the cm9 flash process again...you may have done something wrong and that's why is not installing properly...good luck!
btw...here is a link to install cm9 on the tp....IMO the best guide out there with files and links to everything...http://liliputing.com/2012/01/how-to-install-android-4-0-on-the-hp-touchpad-cyanogenmod-9-alpha.html
You will be fine. If nothing else the tp will die, then you can recharge and doctor back to stock. But like rhidalgo said you should be able to force shutdown. Although I always hold vol up, home, and power for 15 sec. But your not bricked so don't worry too much
Edit. I would just try cm again before you webdoc. That's kind of a hassle, and it sounds like the tp is just in some diag mode or something.
My Touch Pad went nuts and decided it wasn't going to boot. It will start to boot but only gets to the screen that says loading.. The next screen would be the boot animation but it never gets that far.
I have to hard rest the TP but instead of booting to the Moboot menu it just goes right by and keeps trying to boot cm10. So I stuck in loop hell.
I was trying to boot to recovery but I'm not sure you can without the menu.
Anyone have any ideas? I can get into USB mode but that's it. Haven't tried ADB but not sure if it boots far enough for adb?? another problem is my battery was at 15% so I have to do something fast once I turn it on as it would charge the way it is now.
HELP!?
Hold down a button such as one of the volume buttons while it is booting from a powered down state. Moboot cannot proceed with a button held down. You'll get a prompt to release all keys and you should then go into the moboot menu.

If you hold the volume up Button and press power till you see tha hp logo, you should go into the recovery mode right away!

Well that's how its supposed to work. But once I let go of keys it starts to boot into moboot (I can see the screen) but then there is no actual menu and it just automatically starts booting CM10 again.
Anyways I found the ACME un-istaller and was able to run it before my battery totally died (it was at 5%) and at least now I'm back to WebOS and fully charged. I guess I"ll have to reinstall all the Android stuff from scratch. But WebOS isn't all that bad and actually work very well, if only their was app support.
Thanks for your help though.
I am hoping someone can assist me. I have had Android loaded for over 2 years now, and I somehow may have killed it yesterday. Here is what happened. Please help me revive my favorite tablet.
I was going to load Jelly Bean 4.3 and saw in that for most of the ROMs, it recommended to increase system partition to 512 and provided a link. I downloaded the zip file.
I have TWRP, so booted to TWRP and then performed a Factory Reset Wipe, which deletes everything, and is what I do always before a clean install of a new Android version.
I installed the "File to increase partition size to 512".
The next step was to install the ROM, but when I clicked install in TWRP (it is an install program that has some touch capabilities), TWRP just looked back to the home screen, and I go the message:
"No system found". or something similar.
It was in a loop, so I decided to click Reboot to see if I could boot back in to WebOS or my last Jelly Bean version.
When I clicked reboot in TWRP, it said rebooting at the top, but the progress bar didn't move for 15 minutes.
While this was happening, I could not click anything in TWRP, when I touched the Power key, it when to a screen that did nothing, other than let me back to the previous screen if I swiped it, like a confirmation message. It just took me back to the screen where it was locked.
I figured I was well on the way to trouble, so I decided to hard shut down while it was in this state.
I pushed Home, Power, and Volume Up/Down keys until it flickered and the power went off.
Now, I cannot get it to show any life.
I plugged it in and charged it, but still not response.
Can I get it to connect as a USB even though it is unresponsive? Maybe to start over with WebOS Doctor?
Or, is there something else to try?
Please help me, XDA Dev community. I will try anything.
Thank you in advance for your help.
did you find fix

I have the same Prob .it will not start did you find a fix? if so could pass it on thanks
Found Fix
I ended up visiting the tpdebrick-v004 thread on rootzwiki. I booted my PC to LINUX 12.04 Live CD and applied the fix. I also ended up charging it for 2 days and it finally powered on. I then did a WebOS Doctor - plenty of instructions on how to do this. Then I used ACMEUninstaller2 to fully remove all Android. Then, I installed the latest CM10.1 with ACMEInstaller5, which automatically increases the partition to 600MB. Took 2 days off and on to do all of this but it worked.
The first step is to charge the battery for 1 full day, then press Power+Home to try to reset. If that doesn't work, try to push Power only, and boot into WebOS if you get this option. From there, you will be ready to start restoring.
If your problem is something other than what I have, the solution that fixes 95% of TP brick problems is tpdebrick-v004 by JCSullins. That should fix you.
Thanks
a fix for hp

this worked for my tp good luck
1. Plug the charger in and connect it to your touchpad.
2. Press and hold home+power together for 1 minute. If no response, release, then hold both for 1 minute again.
3. If 2 does not work, keep the charger connected, release the buttons (2) then press and hold home+power+volume up together for 1 minute. Release, then press and hold home+power for 1 minute.

If that didn't work, try pressing the power and Up volume button at the same time. This should show the usb logo. Use WebOs Doctor to revive the tablet. This will wack moboot. Use ACMEInstaller 5 on the pc to install moboot (0.3.8), CWM or TWRP zips from the webos /cminstall folder.
My home button has stopped working on my TP. I'm currently stuck on the mobot 0.35 screen. volume rockers work to move cursor up and down to select webos or Android but home button to select wont work. Seems I can only wait for the battery to die and then let it reboot naturally since holding the power button and the volume rocker doesn't seem to reboot in Mobot screen.
Going forward I'd like to restore home button functionality. it stopped working some time ago. Should I open up HP TouchPad and see if I can fix the issue with the contacts of the home button? Don't know if thats easy or if I'm capable of. Or is there another way to install a newer Android version for me without a functional home button? thx!

Android should be the default boot option for moboot. You could try using the older install methods with the ACMEInstaller5 here if you're desperate to get android working again. Try using a newer rom below.
Download Android 4.4.4 Kitkat install files(Rom, Recovery, Gapps):
Rom:Download the latest Lineage11 build
Recovery:TWRP-jcs-dm-tenderloin-20140612b.zip
Gapps:gapps-base-arm-4.4.4-20170902-1-signed.zip
Note: Do Not unzip the files.
Repairing the actual button could be tricky but there's an iFixit guide here HP TouchPad disassembly guide on youtube here
