How to Update to Cyanogenmod 7 Alpha 3 Android on the HP Touchpad

Here it is! This video demonstrates the process for updating your already installed Android to Alpha3. If you do not already have Android installed on your Touchpad, you will want to watch my other videos and install using this new file.

Download the Alpha3 from Rootzwiki:

* Bluetooth DPad/arrows do not rotate with screen
* Battery stats now available to Android
* Serial# now populated
* Shorter hostname as a result of serial#
* General wifi fixes
* Preliminary Touchpad 4G support(no radio)
* Possible fix for A2DP and wifi interference
* Possible fix for SD card not mounting
* Camera FPS improved but still nearly nonfunctional

Hey i need help how to get to clockwork mod i try and it didn't work it go staright back to the Cyangeon mod x.x can u please help?

[reverendkjr]

@Biddison100 Sounds like you didn't install the Clockwork Recovery file correctly. Use ACMEInstaller to install the cwm file again and then it should show up in your moboot menu.

Hello,

My wife is running Cyanogenmod 3.0 on her TP and experiencing two problems: First, when I attempt to install certain apps (e.g. Scrabble), I get the error mesage, "Can't install on USB storage or SD card." However, on my TP, running 3.5, I can download and install that app with no problem. Also, my wife's TP is not accepting the 3.5 update. Install keeps aborting.

@reverendkjr : Hey, thnx for such wonderful uploads. I have alpha 2 on my touchpad (wifi is problematic). I want to upgrade it to the latest alpha release. I was wondering if the apps and the settings i have will be lost ? Do i need to reinstall them after the upgrade ?
