It's here, ALPHA 2.1 (10-19-2011)

This may be a dumb question, but how do I transfer the backup from my phone to touchpad? I was thinking I could share the app from my phone through email but I've forgotten how.

I plugged my phone and tablet into my computer at the same time and copied the Titanium Backup folder from phone to tablet, then fired up TIBU on the tablet.

OTOH, if you use the same Gmail account for both, your paid apps are still available from Market, but not the data.

I just copied over my titanium backup folder over to the touchpad from my phone. Put it on my computer from the phone. Then plugged up my touchpad and copied the entire directory over. Then installed titanium backup on my touchpad and restore what apps I wanted from it.

You beat me to it... recommended trying out thumb keyboard too. Also there is market fixer in the RootzWiki forum somewhere that will show mostof the market apps.

How did you get different colors for your circle launcher text labels?

Figured out something... if you want your favorite app but can't find it on the market on your Touchpad... download it in market on your phone... backup with tibu... put the backup on your Touchpad... and then use tibu to restore it on your Touchpad... works great... running facebook and twitter market apps.

There's a fix for the Market filtering issue now. Works like a charm.

A couple first impressions:

I was not able to launch and setup Kindle right away. I'm pretty sure this is because the "sdcard" is shared, and the Kindle folder already existed, but for the WebOS version. This caused the Kindle app to lock up on the launch screen. I had to rename/delete the folder to allow Kindle to create a new one, but I would imagine that this will cause a problem when I boot back into WebOS and launch Kindle again. This issue will probably cause issues in other apps that attempt to store settings in the same folder.

I have to toggle WiFi on/off in order to switch WiFi networks.

Other than that, it's pretty sweet so far.

I grabbed an old Microsoft BT keyboard from the server room at work. It was a bit quirky, like the letter "i" would bring up about 6 i's with different accents on them (like for foreign languages), but that seemed to only show up once. Also, the tab key would add a tab instead of going to the next input like on a web page. The "end" key closed my email setup wizard and I had to start over. Hopefully your results will be better. :D

Wow still pretty impressive though, I'm excited to get mine :D

Wow, 1,699 installs so far: CMStats search for "tenderloin".

Since I'm posting links, here's your open issues: Issues - cmtouchpad - Android port for HP Touchpad - Google Project Hosting

Speaking of links, I added a sticky with links to interesting stuff. Let me know if you found links that were helpful. :D

I wonder if they'll post a new build after the weekend.

Issues:

Wifi issues seem to be popular. Open Settings... Wireless & network settings... wifi settings... (press menu button, choose advanced). Wi-fi sleep policy should be "never sleep".

Long press on the network and choose "forget" and re-add it also fixes it for some.

If that doesn't help regulatory domain... change to the number of open channels (try 16).


Sleep issues: Let your TP sleep on it's own. Using the power button to force display-off can result in a sleep issue that requires power+home to reset (hard reset).

This has happened to me 2 or 3 times, always when the battery is really low. I thought it had something to do with power, not specifically the power button. Good intel, I'll see what happens if I don't use it

What about a homescreen hotkey instead of the power button? Think it'd be the same issue?

I use the Quick Boot widget and haven't noticed an issue, but usually use it to reboot. I know using it to shutdown while plugged in, takes me to the boot menu where I have to choose "power off". I'm not used to that.

Another fix for sleep issues is to open SetCPU and set the minimum speed to a higher speed like 384 since 192 might be too low to pull it out of sleep. Then check the "Set on Boot" checkbox. I just changed that now so don't know yet if it helps. FWIW I was OC'd at 1782 MHz, but now I'm at 1512 since it's so fast I don't need the speed and battery is more important. When I checked Quadrant at 1782 I hit 3,000 on my first try. That's just one cpu and no 2D yet. :D

Wow it was 100% stable at 1782? I keep mine on 1404, but if it can go that high maybe i'll bump it up a bit

My wife's 16 GB TP is stable at 1900, but I need the additional space (32 GB) or I would have swapped with her. :D

I think I've hit 1800 with mine, but don't recall what the OC kernels are capable of. My webOS side is set at 1700 with a beta kernel that doesn't have the junk scrolling up at startup.

I'd be surprised if most of TP's aren't capable of 1700.

1500 is the stock speed of the "special" TP's, like the white 64 GB version.

1500 is the speed the chip is rated at. :D

The Nook Color was 800 MHz stock, but the chip was rated at 1000 max and everyone set it to 1200-1300 until it was discovered that the GPU maxed at 1200.
