I was having lots of issues with the wifi on a previous nightly but having updated the other night it's now rock steady 24/7 - before it would loose connection within 5-10 mins of being enabled!!

Can't wait to try out Jelly Bean!

Jelly Bean is going to have better audio latency apparently so it would be good if it gets ported.

That said, am I right in saying Jelly Bean doesn't have flash support?

I can no longer install apk files manually through es file explorer or astro file manager? I It comes up with the superuser request but nothing happens if I click install so have to cancel, any ideas?

Opps missed this..I have had it when I tried to install the same or higher version of an apk.

I used Titanium backup to clear the cache and wipe the data of the app and so far so good.

anyone know if this charger http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/330765145043?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649 will charge up my touchpad when I'm not near a proper socket please?

bad_ass_neil · 17 Oct 2012 at 09:08

i think the touchpad needs a 2a output, thats only 1a

SKILL · 17 Oct 2012 at 11:35

I believe it'll charge (it charges from my SGS2 charger which is <1A iirc) but it will moan about it.

I'm also not sure it'll charge if you let the battery run down completely, I find neither my touchstone or sgs2 charger will work then, I need to use the official touchpad charger to bring it back to life...

OK thanks guys, struggling with a 2A charger! I find my Touchpad one is so overused it's battered now.

New CM10 ROM was released on the 8th and it's flying. Everything's working bar the camera and the only problem I've had after two days use is a few random crashes with the App Store.

Installed it over the top of my CM9 install first and had a few problems so used the ACMEUninstaller to clear my pad then installed CM10.

Installing CM10 now after Uninstall first, bit worried about bricking it if the battery runs flat

james.miller · 11 Nov 2012 at 20:55

cm10 on the touchpad is noticeable smoother than cm9. impressive. Im also impressed that a webos device has now seen cm7, 9 and 10 (GB, ICS & JB). That's better than a lot of android devices out there lol.

I've not read up much on CM10. Does it need a complete factory reset before installing from CM9?

deuse · 11 Nov 2012 at 22:13

I tried CM10 but it looked the same as CM9 there was a few things more in settings.
I did noticed that Asus day live wall paper I use was zoomed in and google now did not work.

But it's only a pre-view so there will be bugs. I hope that the Ramos W30HD will be out very soon then I will get that.

Pigeon_Killer · 11 Nov 2012 at 22:55

Google Now didn't work for me when I installed CM10 over the top of CM9 so I did a full uninstall first, wiped my SD card in WebOS then installed CM10 and it works fine now.

Thanks for that

I was looking for the easy option!! I guess it's time to dig out Mybackup Pro.

Sorry, that shouldv'e said full uninstall first.

No worries, I've edited the quote!

By uninstall, do you just mean a factory reset from CWM?

Pigeon_Killer · 12 Nov 2012 at 00:02

Ran this command:

novacom.exe boot mem:// < ACMEUninstaller

Wipes CM completely then boots straight in to WebOS where you can format your SD card.
