[Q] How to Fresh install CM 10.2 on HP Touchpad

I have 2 year old Touchpad that was running Android 4.2.2 and tried to update to 4.3.1 and trashed it. I was running CM 7, upgraded to 9, then 10, then 10.1. I did everything to try and salvage it and read every article possible with NO luck.
SO, I decide to use Acme Uninstaller to remove it, but had issues seeing the Partition and it wanted to FORMAT - I did NOT FORMAT because everyone said not to.
SO then I did a factory reset on the Touchpad and erased it. This worked and allowed me to try and get back to CM 10.2.
The problem is that I cannot find a single installation method that shows the simplest steps to install CM10.2 ( Android 4.3 ) without having to install older version of CM9, or CM10.
I have tried every possible article and method and so far here is what I am stuck with.
I can install CM9 with Moboot BUT CWM and TWRP will not install so I cannot update GAPS.
I erased and then tried using the TAILOR Web OS app to increase the OS partitions from 400mb to 600 mb and that installed fine.
Then I installed CM 10 using ACMEInstaller 3 and it boot loops.
Then I tried CM 10.2 using ACMEinstaller3 and it will not install and says the package is invalid.
It seems like something do to with the partitions and that is why I cannot installed CWM, TWRP or GAPS or even an update.
The only thing I have NOT done is use WEB OS Dr. because I thought this is for when WEB OS is trashed.
I know this seems like a re-post but it really isnt
IF anyone has a simple document that details exactly how a Touchpad should be correctly erased and then install a fresh CM10.2, I would really appreciated it.
There just does not seem to be any articles or you tube videos that show this processes.
I am sure there are a lot of people that would benefit from a guide for CM9, CM10 or CM.2 by doing a complete erase and start over.
I have started writing my own documents but of course I cannot finish it.
Please help and point me in the correct direction because I am stuck with only WEB OS.

I too am having a confusing time with my TP. I've tried a few ROMs and I just want to basically erase everything and install a single, fresh new ROM. I haven't touched my TP in quite a while so i've forgotten all the confusing steps it took to originally root it. Some guidance would be great.

Finally have CM 10.2 / Android 4.3.1 installed
I wanted to let you know that I was FINALLY able to get a fresh install of CM 10.2 / Android 4.3.1 installed using the NEW ACMEInstaller 5 T.
I also used the ACMEUNINSTALL2 that was re-posted.
So I plan on Factory wiping my Touchpad so that I can document the process from beginning to end and if it works, then I will post my instructions.
Of course I make no guarantees like everyone else states, but I am following pieces and parts of what everyone else posts and just trying to make a simpler guide. There are lots of guides but nothing that seems to work at all for me and lots of other people are saying the same thing.

[Q] Unofficial CM11 Problem

Hi.
I have just flashed the unofficial CM11 rom on the Original Android Development Forum on my TF701T. The install appears to have been successful however the system keeps freezing anwhere from 1 minute to 5 minutes after boot. Before it freezes everything appears to be working as it should. Any ideas what I have done wrong and what I have to do to fix this? Apologies if the same issue has been raised elsewhere.
Many thanks

Are you on the correct bootloader 10.26.1.18 as is required?

I've not heard of this ocurring (my own tab has been running for a while now; no issues of this sort).
Are you on the latest ROM build (01/29)? Have you flashed the appropriate gapps?
Are you on the latest boot loader?
Any apps installed which could cause issue?
If it happens when plugged in to USB, is isb OK on your PC/Mac?
Have you used titanium backup to restore system level stuff from a non compatible build?
Do this,
Go back to stock (latest release from asus) and observe for an hour or two. Any issues? If not then flash ROM + gapps and wipe. Don't sign in and don't restore apps. Any issues? Then sign in and restore. Any issues? And so on and so forth until.you find the break point.

Thank you for your prompt responses as always and apologies for not replying sooner.
SDbags I am installing CM11 over your own excellent 4.3+ stock rooted v2 ROM which I believe involved updating my boot loader. I am unsure how to confirm the version I am on but booting into recovery shows the following
Android Macallan-user BL released by ww_epad-10.26.1.7-20131108.
Pershoot once the new CM11 was first flashed the TF701 would freeze during the setup steps well before any 3rd party apps could be installed. After a number of attempts I manage to get through set up and the system becomes a lttle more stable but then freezes after a few more minutes. I can conform that the correct gapps has been flashed using the link on the associated thread and no additional apps except the ones included on the ROM have been flashed. The system freezes without being plugged into the PC via USB and as mentioned before I am coming from sdbags stock rooted 4.3 ROM and have not used titanium back up at all.
A couple of additional point
1) I have tried to reflash sdbags ROM again but it now gets stuck on a bootloop.
2) I noticed that my install of CM11 is not able to access either an SD card placed in the dock or MicroSD placed in the tab despite the system recognising when they are inserted or removed on the task bar.
3) Because the system freezes so quickly it tabvery difficult to transfer a new ROM downloaded to my PC over to the TF701 because the moment it freezes the PC can't communicate with the tab.
Apologies if this reply is a little onerous - any help would be greatly appreciated and thank you both again for your prompt response to my.request for help.
Kind regards,
East

Hold down Volume Down and Power and read the bootloader version from the top left.

That's the wrong BL to be on. I don't believe sdbags' ROM updates BL. You must do it via Asus's update.
Go back to stock recovery and follow asus's procedure to update yourself to their latest 10.26.1.18 (4.3) build.

Dear SD Bags & Pershoot,
Apologies for not responding to your feedback sooner - Its been a busy week at work.
I will follow your advise and update the bootloader via the ASUS website and try to reinstall the rom again over the weekend or early next week and I will update this thread with the results. Once again apologies for not following the instructions more carefully.
Many thanks & kind regards,
East

Hi felIas.
I have updated the bootloader as I should have done initially which appears to have sent me back to stock unrooted 4.3. Please could you confirm that all I need to do now is install the recovery image and then flash CM11 and GApps? Does the rom file work the same way as SDbags rom where it also roots the phone as part of the installation or do I need to somehow root first?
Having said all this I am considering leaving the system as stock until a work around for sky go on rooted 4.4.2 devices is found!
Many thanks again for your guidance and patience.

I have a work around for Sky Go on rooted devices You didn't ask.
PM Please.

Hey there I was wondering if anyone else is experiencing my problem. I updated to CM11 on my TF701 and while the dock and keyboard works some of the keys are dead i.e. Settings button, toggle wifi, toggle bluetooth, screenshot, disable trackpad, and auto brightness. Is there any way to fix this? I have tried editing the qwerty files and installing the asus keyboard apk, but neither worked. The APK did not install and editing the qwerty.kl file quite literally did nothing. Also curious if there is a way to get an external mouse to behave the way it did on JB left click is a standard touch and right click is back?

Kernel needs recompiling with fixes in it - not a huge job but something I have on my todo list - won't be for a while though.

Is there a thread I can subscribe to to get the latest news??

[Q] Odd issue with root disappearing?

Hi,
I've just upgraded the OS of my HTC One to 4.4 with Sense 5.5 and rooted the handset.
I took the majority of information and downloads from here:
http://htconeroot.com/htc-one-stock-roms/android-4-4-kitkat-sense-5-5-stock-rom-for-htc-one/
while the rooting stuff I grabbed from here:
http://htconeroot.com/htc-one-root/how-to-root-htc-one-windowsmaclinux/
So ok this is my 3rd OS upgrade with root so in a basic sense I did this:
- Updated TWRP to version 2.7.x
- Used TWRP recovery WIPE option to format / (root)
- Installed the 4.4 stock ROM from above link
- TWRP then asked me if I would like to root the device and so I said ok to that
- Booting into the OS everything was fine and I had the SU-Root icon in the Apps menu
I'm not sure what happened if the battery got drained or so but in anycase after a restart the handset was no longer rooted??
As I have the 2.65 SU-ROOT Zip file on my storage partition I went back to TWRP and Install then clicked on the Zip file and re-rooted the device; then wiped the cache and booted back into the OS.
For some reason now the phone isn't able to be rooted at all? I am pretty sure I had similar behavior with Android 4.3, though the initial stock build was absolutely fine.... I think I managed to get from 4.1 to 4.2 successfully.
Will I need to format the handset again then re-install the ROM and re-root or is something else going on which I'm unaware of??
I've also noticed that the device becomes un-rooted each time the battery goes low or dies for some reason... a persistent root would be nice as I have many apps needing full root access; not to mention being able to work with the full Android system too.
Would anyone be able to suggest anything? Thanks!

Need your advise what to do HP Touch Pad

Hello to everyone ... I'm new here and I register to site because I notice on google this site about what one can do with the HP Touch Pad and I'm hoping to get this unit up to par . I must say I never used before it was given to me by a family member and I just never bother using it until this week as to what I could do with it . So just to add it has 16gb and what is installed is HP TouchPad webOS 3.0.5 which seem to be pretty useless . Also, CyanogenMod ..... cm_tenderloin build .... Android 4.1.2 ... Kernel version 2.6.35-palm-tenderloin Mar 3 2013 . Now I have seen threads in this forum towards this pad . My question is what would you do with it if you had what I have install ? If I'm correct the webOS is pretty much a waste to have, yes ? And, if I were to get the latest Android build what would you suggest I do ? Thanks to anyone the replies

Anyone want to help out a total noob with this touch pad ? What I would like if possible from someone who would give me directions is installing the latest Android . I don't need what's on there now and would just love to run the latest Android if possible, wipe the whole thing clean and do a clean install of Android only .... I know for many from what's on this forum the threads in doing this stuff is easy but the more I read the more I'm confused . So if someone would be kind and tell me what I need to download ? What I have downloaded is Java, Novacom installer and TPToolbox v42. Which one is the Android latest ? And if there anything else I need to download ? Thanks

Thanks for responding with a link that I have had a look at and again this stuff maybe seem basic to understand to most but I'm not getting it . This is why I'm asking questions is a very slow pace understanding . Again, if anyone would be so kind to help me out with one step at a time it would be greatly appreciated . I'm using a PC with windows 7 . My tablet I don't care to back it up or upgrade it or save anything . I want to wipe it all off and install I believe Marshmallow which I believe is the latest Andriod, yes ? Though I am not sure which file I need for it . What I have downloaded onto my computer is UniversalNovacomInstaller, TPToolbox v42 and java . Can you tell me what else I need ? Thanks

Just an update as to what I have done. I downloaded and installed both the java and the UniversalNovacomInstaller 1-4-1 . I have the TPTool v42 on my desktop. I rebooted the tablet into recovery mode . I double click on the tptb_v42_win.bat file and get >> Cannot find Touchpad Toolbox binary file TPToolbox-2015-01-00-v42.bin ... press any key to continue and nothing happens after that . Is the TPToolbox corrupted or am I missing something? Thanks

No wonder I was confused I couldn't get the tptoolbox to load . Once I uninstalled the UniversalNovacomInstaller 1-4-1 and all its traces and reinstalled I got the toolbox to load . Now I am off to learn to understand as to how to install android . One question if someone would be kind enough if I place these zip files >>> cm-13.0 tenderloin , flintman TWRP touch data media , gapps 444 - base in my Touchpad ttinstall folder am I on the right track?

Well it look like flintman TWRP touch data media doesn't work, got an error for it . So basically I wanted to install Marshmallow but I don't believe I have the correct files for it . So what I have downloaded now are >>> [ROM] Evervolv | 6.0.0p1 [AOSP Marshmallow 6.0.1] [3.4 kernel] [nightlies] With DM , gapps-601-base-20160606-1-signed.zip . My question now is for the recovery file will any do or does it have to be a certain one to go these other files, and if so, which recovery file should I download, thanks

That didn't work either above but I did manager to get 5.1 installed . Now that I got a OS installed the guide make sense but when a newbie is learning and the dame NovacomInstaller isn't working it sure can make matter very confusing

Dude905,
Novacom is a webOS tool/driver and before TP Toolbox was released was the way to load up Android. As you already had Android installed you would also have had TWRP or CWM. These could be used to flash the latest version of themselves or even go to the Play store and install TWRP Manager. From there, you just needed to download a ROM and use TWRP (I prefer) to install the ROM and relevant GAPPS (Google Play Store stuff).
The TPToolkit works well with 4.x and 5.x but not 6.x or 7.x yet. Everything you need to get 4 or 5 working should be listed in the TP Toolbox thread. The problem is there is a lot of info to read and understand.

Thanks for responding. As a Windows user which I never used anything but learning this stuff does take a lot of reading . I have a better understand of it than when I first started. I wouldn't say I'm there yet 50% maybe but at least I was able to install KitKat 5.1 thanks to the easy to use TPToolbox, that dude made my life easier and he deserves a big THANK YOU . If by chance he does created TPToolbox for 6 and 7 that would be really good news and I would even throw him a few dollars for it .

I've been reading through this forum for the last couple days - haven't started anything. This post is EXACTLY where I'm starting. I have Webos and cyanogen -
Android 4.2.2
2.6.35-palm-tenderloin
Cyanogenmod version 10.1-20130330-unofficial tenderloin
Build Date Mar 29, 2013
Anyway - I want to do the same thing. I'm building this for my kid - and would like it as up to date as possible.
Do I wipe it clean or do I have it set up to just load a new rom already? I completely forget how I did all this. I got to a point where all I had to do was copy a file over and reboot. Again, I forget how I got it to this point. I haven't touched this touchpad in more that 2 years. I spent yesterday charging it and wondering if it would ever turn on. Took like 10 hours to charge!
Dude905 - think you could point me where you started?

@osubg1 sure no problem if I can. Remember though I too am learning but I was able to load Kitkat on both of mine tablets . Now I basically didn't care to keep WebOS since I myself find no use for it . Ok, So what I done was first download java onto my computer . Then I downloaded that easy to use Tptoolbox v42 . After that I put these 3 into a folder >> cm-12.1-20151116-SNAPSHOT-jcsullins-tenderloin.zip, FLINTMAN-TWRP-touch-data_media-SELINUX-2.8.3.0-12-23-14.zip and gapps-511-base-20160929-1-signed.zip . I then download the UniversalNovacomInstaller-1.4.1.jar. What I done was place Tptoolbox and UNovacominstaller in a folder together . So I have 2 folders One for the Tptoolbox and UNovacominstaller and the other with >> cm-12.1-20151116-SNAPSHOT-jcsullins-tenderloin.zip, FLINTMAN-TWRP-touch-data_media-SELINUX-2.8.3.0-12-23-14.zip and gapps-511-base-20160929-1-signed.zip.... Now I unzip the TPtoolbox within the folder so it would all be in that folder . I then installed UniversalNovacomInstaller-1.4.1.jar, afterwards I loaded the Tablet into the WebOS recovery mode and once that was done I plug it into the computer . Now there going to be a time when the UniversalNovacomInstaller will pop up a folder ttinstall and you need to copy cm-12.1-20151116-SNAPSHOT-jcsullins-tenderloin.zip, FLINTMAN-TWRP-touch-data_media-SELINUX-2.8.3.0-12-23-14.zip and gapps-511-base-20160929-1-signed.zip.... into that folder . I then started tptb_v42_win.bat file from the Tptoolbox at which time you'll notice it loading to the tablet . I then selected wipe it all from the selection and click yes 3 times . Once that was done I selected to install at which time you unmounted and start the installation process . Now this is just for KitKat which isn't the latest Android but it's good enough for what I need it for . If you want the latest I believe you need to flash it within kitkat but I haven't read up on that part to much . I hope it helps and if you get stuck I will try to help you through it . good luck

All sorts of pain trying to install Android (tenderloin-6.0.1)

Edit: Not sure what I've done differently that I can see but it's suddenly accepted the cm and install is ongoing. Fingers crossed I make it through to the end
Got my 32gb Touchpad webOS 3.0.5 to come back to life after sitting in a draw for 3 years without a charge. It runs great!
I'm on Win10 (64bit)
Now the issue is the universal novacom installer fails everytime. Detects win 64 but then won't install the drivers. So I found the drivers separately and put those on manually.
Now when I hit the batch file in TPToolbox 2014-05-18-v40.bin (I believe this is the most recent version) it comes up with
Setting Palm Path . . .
Checking novacom service . . .
Loading TPToolbox . . .
unable to find device
.
Cannot connect to Touchpad
then the stuff about the cable (using original HP cable I used to charge it) have it in usb mode (this is the usb image it says should be on screen).
Now if there's a way to get it into "Recovery (bootie)" mode that gets the large usb symbol on screen that I'm failing to comprehend then maybe this is my issue.
Begging for assistance before I lose my mind. Also first post, great forum been here the last 4 hours but I think I'm going word blind now.:good:

Something else not working now.
When I get to the install Android bit on the toolbox it says "there are differences between boot sector and its backup.
Not automatically fixing this.
Free cluster summary wrong
few more bits like that then it aborts back to media volume mounted.
Just noticed I was on version v40 of tptoolbox so I've switched to v42.
Now it checks the tenderloin and gapps zips but says "Invalid number of recovery zips (0)
So where do I get that from? I didn't see any recovery zips at the downloads link or have I missed something glaringly obvious? I watched one of the videos through and he put on 3 zipped folders but one was an update. No sign of recovery zips so how do I deal with this?
Here goes the umpteenth attempt.
I could use some help that the guides seem to be missing. I've tried different tenderloin zips and added in the update zips but still falls flat at Invalid number of recovery zips.

Unfortunately there is lack of details in you posts to be able to be of much help.
I would personally either go with 4.4.4 KK or leap over to EVs nougat 7.1.1
Reference Roland's tutorial's, they are the best source of info out there.
There are two of his threads pinned/stickied above this thread, & one below.
They have _all_ the details to install any version you want. There is an abundance of info.
WebOS, imo is dead for these. I haven't touched it for over 4 years.
It is not on any of mine.

I'd disagree regarding installations of Marshamellow having all the info as I followed the available info and came up with those errors time and time again, specifically the "recovery zip" folders.
I gave up after losing a day to this. Installed 4.4.4 kk before I went to sleep as that absolutely had _ all _ the info and it went on first time. Ty for your input.

6.0.1 Marshmallow cant be installed directly with the TPtoolbox

Hey Android 6.0.1 Marshmallow cant be installed directly with the TPtoolbox due to an incompatibility with the required recovery file. Hence the reason my TPtoolbox guide specify the install of android 4.4.4 or 5.0 but not 6.0.1. In addition to keep WebOS on the tablet you will need to follow a few extra steps or you may get errors and issues. Not to worry every link and piece of info is provided in detail below, you could even successfully install 6.0.1 with this guide but 7.1.1 is better, happy flashing.
