How to install CyanogenMod 10 Preview with Sound & working Camera on the HP TouchPad!
Note(Important) I highly recommend you make a Nandroid backup of your current Rom, Apps and Setup. This perfectly preservers your current configuration and can easily be restored through CWM or TWRP Recovery. Once you've tested and tweaked your CM10 setup, you can make a Nandroid backup of that too. This will allow you to easily switch back and forth between Roms; while protecting your preferred setup and favorite apps.

CyanogenMod package contents explained:
-There are currently three versions of CyanogenMod provided here to install. I would highly recommend installing CyanogenMod 9 (CM9). CyanogenMod 10 (CM10) is currently a very functional unofficial Preview build but still has many bugs . CM9 is stable and has almost everything working perfectly. CyanogenMod7 also works well but is a little dated and not as well supported as CM9.
-You will need 4 files to install CyanogenMod. The first two files can vary depending on the version you choose to install. CyanogenMod 9 is used here for Example:
1)update-cm-9-20120707-NIGHTLY-tenderloin-signed.zip (Installs your Android Operating System)
2)update- gapps-ics-20120429-signed (Installs your Gapps Package, Play Store & Applications)
3)moboot_0.3.5 (Installs your Boot Menu options)
4)update-CWM6_tenderloin-20121215 (Installs ClockWorkMod6 recovery)
Optional patches and fixes, Not included:
(Optional) Moboot 3.8
Jcsullins has released a new version of Moboot for testing!
moboot_038-tenderloin.zip Download:
Twrp & Moboot 3.8:
"*Moboot 3.8 is still considered a "Testing" version but allows correct device S/n reporting to android OS needed for certain apps/games like Asphalt 7 etc. There are no issues reported (yet) when used with cwm6 because it has always used sdcard/clockworkmod/ for backups.
TWRP uses your device S/N (000000000 on Moboot 3.5) to create the folder where backups are stored, when you update to Moboot 3.8, TWRP will be looking at a new backup folder (ie 12345678) and won't see your previous TWRP backups. This is not an issue on all future backups (or if you started with Moboot 3.8). If needed you can use a file browser to move the old TWRP backup files to the new S/n folder and it has been reported to work.
(Note: I have not tried TWRP on the Touchpad, but I have used it on other devices)."

HP TouchPad Battery Drain issues during sleep (Important):
The Problem:
Developer James Sullins, Aka Jcsullins, has informed HP TouchPads users that there is a problem with our tablets A6 Firmware. This issue can cause an usually high battery drain during sleep. This problem occurs overtime while running both CyanogeMod and WebOS, on the HP TouchPad. As a results the Touchpads battery drains more quickly with daily use and the overall life span is reduced.
The Solution:
Reflashing the A6 Firmware effectively fixes the problem but may need to be repeated as a part of regular HP TouchPad maintenance. Watch this video and follow the step by step instructions to reflash your own Touchpads A6 Firmware.
How to test:
How to monitor your battery

Rom Flashing issues with CWM5 (Important):
The Problem:
-Developer Green has advised that using CWM5 to install(flash) a nightly or format the /data and /system partitions, may introduce corruption into the file system.
-It is advised to avoid updating though CWM5 for this reason.
-By installing Jcsullins new CWM6 you can avoid future corruption.(Included)
-CWM6 Download:
-Updating your Rom with CWM5 can cause the inode errors seen in double penguin mode while installing with the ACEMEInstaller3.
-Due to corruption introduced from flashing/Updating Roms though CWM5, your system partition may have errors.
The Solution: (Also a safe way to upgrade from CM9-CM10)
-Uninstalling CyanogenMod with the ACMEUninstaller and freshly installing with the ACMEInstaller 3 will resolve any possible issues.
-To avoid problems when updating from CM9-CM10 you should first make a full Nandroid backup, then uninstall CM9.
-Next Fully install CM9 using the ACMEInstaller3.
-Once Complete restore your CM9 Nandroid backup,
-Now you can safely update from CM9- CM10 with the ACMEInstaller3 or
-You can also safely flash the CM10 Rom and gapps package with CWM6.
-It’s fine to flash regular.zip files through CWM5; such as gapps files, fixes/patches and CWM6.zip These will not cause corruption and are safe for daily flashing.
-Use CWM6 from now on Download:
-Note* CWM6 has already been included for everyone using this guide to install CyanogenMod for the first time.
-For more information Please watch the CWM6 Video Here:
Partition Size Problems and ACMEInstaller3(Important):
-The ACMEInstaller 3 is meant to increase the partition size from 300MB to 400MB.
-CM9 only needed 300MB but Jelly Bean is a larger Rom and requires more space(350MB).
-In some cases users have reported 0.0/400MB of space left after installing CM10.
-Although everything may still run fine it is recommend to leave at least a little space free. The consequences of running it without free space are not known.
How to monitor free System Storage space with CM10(Optional):
-You can use a free app,Quick System Info PRO, to check the size of your partitions and remaining free space, it should be = 387MB or 402MB. Either of these is acceptable and indicateds that the ACMEInstaller3 worked correctly.
-Having a system size of 387Mib = 400MB and is perfectly normal after using ACME3
-Users report having a size of 394 after flashing to a new Rom. This is also acceptable.
-If your partition is an odd size or you get random reboots,then you may have encountered problems due to flashing you Rom.
Quick System Info PRO Video Link:
Quick System Info PRO Play Store Link:
-If you use the ACMEInstaller3 and then later restore your Nandroid backup of CM9, you will still retain the larger partition size.
-You can then use CWM or TWRP to safely flash from CM9-CM10 but flashing from CM10-CM9 can cause a boot loop.
How to free up System Storage space with CM10(Optional):
I believe I have located about 15.89MB of data we can safely delete. Android in space videos and Phone Ring tones are located @
root/system/media/videos & root/system/media/audio/ring tones.
X-plore File Manager, use this app to delete the files:
Note* X-plore needs to be given Root Permissions by clicking the 3 dots in the corner and choosing configuration. Here check your Root Access settings. SuperUser + Mount Writable, this is what it should say. Next you may need to reboot before it takes effect.
How to guide for changing your system, data, and cache partition sizes(Optional): (Gradular)
Bricking Help & Fixes:
If your HP TouchPad is stuck in a boot loop or not responding Don't Panic! Try the following:
-Hold down the Power and Home buttons together for 30sec to force the TouchPad to Reboot.
-Hold down the Power button and click the Home key 14 times.
-If your battery is heavily drained, then you may need to leave it charging for a full day.
-When the battery is fully drained it can take the TouchPad a longtime to reach even the lowest battery level.
-The USB cable does not transfer enough power to effectively charge the tablet. You must use the wall plug when charging the HP TouchPad.
New* Developer Jcsullins has posted a second thread "TPDebrick v0.4" dedicated to helping people with bricked HP TouchPads(Important):

The changes to the new build are:
<jcsullins> no device specific changes from previous build, just made new build to pull in the fixes for the weather lockscreen
<Heart|> so simply dirty flash over 4th april cm10 build (with wipe caches)?
<jcsullins> just flash, no wiping should be needed
It looks like you should upgrade. Seems easy enough. Probably some other jellybean changes/improvements snuck in.

I always include everything that has been merged at the time of the build unless there is something specific known to cause problems.
If something does get excluded, then there will be a patch in the works to fix the problem that it caused.
The inclusion of the Battery Stats was actually an accident. I had forgot that I added it to the list of patches on a test build I did.
