How To Install Chomper Android on HP Touchpad

[mantrafiscus]

This is a good video and no doubt useful to some people but what I don't understand is why would you want to put Android on a Touchpad when the best thing about it is WEBOS. If you want to use Android why not just buy an Android tablet.

[reverendkjr]

@mantrafiscus I would buy an Android tablet, if I could get one with these hardware specs for only 100 bucks.

@mantrafiscus And Android does not limit you as much

[charlie12909]

do you got the video uploaded for cyanogenmod if not can you please upload it

[nationwidefilms]

Is this ANDRIOD better than the other one you showed us how to install? The other one i think is called ginger bread. The only problem i have with ginger bread is that when i plug my head phones in the speakers stay on.

[reverendkjr]

@nationwidefilms Try the Cyanogenmod. It's MUCH better!

[charlie12909]

thanks it worked but can you tell me why my screens blinks every time i click on something in also when i click the home button it goes to hp webos please help me thanks

[reverendkjr]

@charlie12909 Because it sucks. It blinks for me too. Just load Cyanogenmod.

It's great that there's Android but it's pretty limited

Still definitely worth 10 minutes to install this until Cyanogen releases their build

Problem, I installed preware via quick install just fine, though when i try and open the preware app it sits at "checking device type" I also tried to install chroid via internalz pro and got the app though the app does not work when launched, just sits there and acts as if i never touched the app.

[llamas1226]

@llamas1226  sorry for the double post :/

[llamas1226]

I am having a bit of a problem: I installed preware via quick install just fine, though whenever i start pre-ware it gets stuck at "checking device type" forever. I also installed chroid via internalz and the app is there, though when i press the app it just sits there and does nothing. halp plz. :D

Hey Rev! Are you planning to make a video for WebOS 3.0.3 update?

[Sepharite]

9:10 "How to eliminate the chinese" made me chuckle a little. i'm terrible.

[divinexwolf]

@Sepharite Then that makes me terrible. Went from calmly watching to laughing....

Saw this on webOSbuzz. Nice review.

[HoppFamily]

Thanks Rev!

[Forehando]

Good video, thanks!

[Flyhighutah]

The next update will run in the cards, do you think it will resolve the memory issue. I know it is difficult to say but logically yes or no?

[vicdoza]

dude how can I get to my internals? Because the HP catalog sucks lol

[reverendkjr]

@vicdoza You install internalz through preware

[Flyhighutah]

Awesome instructions like always. One question, how you included the extra apps files e.g Quadrant etc in the built, can you make a short video for that too? I just installed the built with your excellent instructions and it is working like a charm. Thankxxxxxxxxxxxx Kyle.

[reverendkjr]

@Flyhighutah I placed the .apk files in the apks directory using internalz.  rewatch the video and that should make sense.

does netflix work?

[GeekisCarnage]

@GeekisCarnage Well I just tried. netflix does not work

[reverendkjr]

@GeekisCarnage THanks for sharing with us!

[reverendkjr]

@GeekisCarnage With only 11 MB to play with, I didn't really see a reason to even attempt netflix. give it a shot and let us know!

Is the touchscreen just as laggy in Android as it is in WebOS? If so, then the laggy screen is a hardware thing. :(

[reverendkjr]

@liamvg It's not a hardware thing, it is a software thing. just look at the cm7 videos and you will see there is a difference.

[gurka]

cheers, thanks
