CD desktop

Sorry im a Noob. Could you please put the full thing i will need to type into CMD Prompt.

 

[Andelusion]

open up Command Prompt and just type "CD desktop" (without quotes).

Then type "novacom boot mem:// < ACMEInstaller" (again, without quotes).

It's a known issue in the current version.

See issues here:

Thanks.

Also noticed after long periods of standby it doesn't turn on. I have to hold down power and home button for a quiet a few seconds to make it boot up again. Also touchstone charging does not work even though the charging icon/animation works (this is a known listed issue)

List of Applications I have tried/tested:

1) Angry Birds - very slight stutter
2) Angry Birds Rio - slightly more stutter
3) Fruit Slice - works well
4) iSyncr - Tested Mac version works fine and syncs all music and playlists correctly
5) PlayerPro - Slight lag when scrolling tracks, but fine apart from that. All Album art is scaled correctly.
6) Beautiful Widgets - Very slight lag in weather animations
7) BBC News - Works fine.

Which web browser is the best, i cant stand the stock browser?

The battery draining is pretty bad even after downclocking it to 192mhz while on standby.

Kindle seems to work OK It gives a crash message for the shortcut bar when opening but all seems fine when you exit the program.

Stock browser seems fine to me, loads pages the same speed as my SGS2. It struggles with Flash content, but that is to be expected, for now.

Anyone read anything as to what is likely to happen with the next webOS update having installed Android?

 

[rp2000]

Anyone got any screenshots of what their layout is like?

I might try to install Go Launcher and change this, but as I recall Go Launcher did not seem very Landscape friendly when I tried it on my SGS2.

Nothing interesting really.

Mine just decided to stop turning on, had to hold down power and menu for about 20 seconds before it would boot.

after working fine last night, my touchpad now wont connect to my router. It wont even find it, its as if it doesnt exists. I've got a superhub broadcasting two ssid's and it wont find either. Im stumped lol

Not spent a lot of time playing with it so far, but here's mine:

Very common problem in the current version, seems to happen randomly.

Ah that's reassuring then

Fix for the market filtering:

Seems to be working, I was able to download Dolphin Browser HD from the store, which wasn't available before.

Anyone managed to get iDisplay working?

Had some spare time this evening, so got android on the touchpad.

Definitely better than an alpha, I've seen phone ROMs released in worse states than this! Only negatives seem to be battery life (which is a given for this time), and the wifi-not-connection-after-rebooting bug. Both I can live with till updates arrive.

Installed N64oid and a bluetooth wiimote controller, N64 Mario Kart goodness!

 

[rp2000]

Has anyone connected a PS3 controller via BT? If so what software do I need etc to try this out and which emulators support it?

Mine so far not much, looking forward to see what themes get released now

Chainfire 3D works in case anyone was wondering. Was able to download and play Fruit Ninja THD without problem.
