Thanks Brad, Worked like a charm. Now I have to run and pee 'cause of your background water trickling sounds.

[BradLinder]

@quispspaceguy Hehe. It's a water fountain for my spoiled cats. :)

[theSound2009]

did you overclock your touchpad? Seems like your process is so much faster than mine!

[BradLinder]

@theSound2009 Nope, this is running at standard speeds.

Brad, I have not installed CM 7 yet on my Touchpad, was thinking of doing so with the alpha 3. Do you think it is fairly stable now? Also does google video chat work?

[BradLinder]

@akash1229 It's pretty stable, but it's still alpha software. Proceed at your own risk. The camera doesn't work very well at all in Android, so video chat is pretty much a non-starter for now.

Ice Cream Sandwich CM9 is out for the touchpad now!!!! check rootzwiki or cyanogenmod forums! Brad can you please do a tutorial on how to install it use ACMEInstaller2 =] i know you can do it through ClockWorkMod but that formats the data from CM7. thanks in advance!

Android has worked perfectly for a few days but now when I plug it in to my computer via USB it shows the device as being blank with no folders or files on. Can anyone help me?

@MrAdAbsurdum around 7-9 hours i get generelly with wifi on, depends on what you are doing,

thats with WEBOS

[MrAdAbsurdum]

How many hours battery life would you say this gets on line with stock webOS? And have you tried Team xron's iteration of cyanogenmod?

OMG ! MY DESKCOMPUTER RUNS 200 TIMES FASTER THAN THIS STUPID TABLET.

[yellowwflash]

Hey I have a question, once im done installing alpha 3, can i delete that file from my touchpad? also, i started at alpha 2, can i delete the cminstall folder that i installed at the beginning?

For a novice - is all of this even worth it? I would like to at least TRY Android on my TP - especially since I am trying to figure out if I should sell the extra 2 that I have and just get Android Tablets to give as gifts instead - Also, we are waiting on this announcement re: what HP is going to do with WebOs, which should come within 10 days.

Um when I play music and hit the power button my music begin to act weird and sound distorted?
