Not sure why anyone would want to read my interview with rootzwiki but if you do its up @rootzwiki


When will you stop with your work on the Touchpad? will it ever be finished?

Currently the focus is on longer term development. That is, moving the kernel to 3.0+ and moving to the Linux ath6kl kernel driver for wifi. My hope is that the move to the 3.0 kernel will give us working hardware video decoding. In addition, we need to move to a different libaudio solution. Once these are done, I hope to take more of a backseat for the Touchpad and probably move on to another device.

I was running a Bricked kernel based on alpha .6 and booted into recovery, created a backup, then booted into CM9 (not the bricked kernel) and deleted the bricked kernel from my boot partition with Root Explorer.

Then I booted into recovery, formatted cache and cleared Dalvik cache and flashed just cm9 (0216). I didn't need to flash gApps since Market worked fine, but I did flash the touch screen driver (#10).

Looks like it wants to reboot when it's idle, o/w very smooth. Maybe I need to buy this. :D

I downloaded this directly to TP and runs fine so far. The "clock stopped working" was an annoyance for a few times. Removed it and stop. Rebooted about 3 times earlier in the day. Gonna scour rootzwiki and xda for more info. It's really smooth though. I'm liking the keyboard this time.

XDA says

Not Working:

Hardware Video- Netflix and HD Youtube videos.
Microphone
Camera
Some Market Apks
Titanium Backup At the Moment
Most of the hardware problems from CM7
Gapps intended for CM7/Gingerbread. USE GAPPS ABOVE
USB file transfers use MTP or PTP in Ice Cream Sandwich

Hardware Video, Microphone, Camera, and USB file transfers have been well known for a while now. I thought Dalingrin found a resolution for TiBU but it's possible that it broke again.

Personally I've seen one reboot on my TP since loading the latest nightly. Since then it seems to have settled down and is fairly stable. Haven't run into any insurmountable issues yet... I figure I'll just keep doing what I'm doing until the next nightly is released. And then install that and start over again... :D

Edit: Apparently I spoke too soon! :D

Added @Dees_Troy 's touchscreen driver and a reboot fix courtesy@jcsullins to the touchpad nightlies from tonight's build onward.

EDIT: also included is the option of changing the user agent in the web browser (menu... advanced tab). This means the browser can report it's from an ipad, desktop, android, etc. The advantage of choosing "desktop" would be to avoid the mobile version of many websites.

BTW, this build is pretty good.

All three changes/additions are great improvements!

I agree....

BUT, I left my TP on all night and no deep sleep. I had some yesterday before updating tho so might be due to clearing caches. I'm charging it now to test again.

There were some reports of SOD's, maybe due to the power saving mode in the new touchscreen drivers. I had my min speed set to 192 and no SOD's (maybe b/c it wasn't sleeping).

FYI...

The hardware acceleration (smoother video) that was included with CM9 alpha 2 is now included with the nightly builds.

You could make a backup in recovery and try CM9 and restore AOKP if you prefer that.

I'm on MIUI (ICS) right now and that's usually a weekly build (Fridays), unless there's an issue.
