[ANDROID] How to Install Gingerbread 2.3.5 on HP Touchpad - Touchdroid Build

---

Big happenings recently in the Touchpad realm. Touchdroid, one of the groups who was developing Android for the HP Touchpad, has decided to release a dump of their build, along with instructions on how to install it. I have recorded my own installation in hopes that others might benefit from it.

Two things:

1. Please follow the steps listed here http://touch-droid.com/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=2

2. Be aware that this is not the Cyanogenmod version, and there are a few items that are not quite working yet.

Here is the link to the video:

Happy Flashing!


Now, the usual disclaimer: If this bricks your Touchpad.... bummer, dude.

Also, I am aware that an amazing build will eventually be released from Cyanogen. I am excited about this. The touchdroid build is just to tinker with.

:::UPDATE:::

If you want to uninstall this, here is a video explaining how:

agreed. Even if their devteam is knowledgeable I will not install their port because of the logs I've read.

This is the beginning of it all...^^ Android is damn near now... thx!

Please keep in mind that this build is incomplete and buggy. That being the case, this is only recommended to those that care less about the source (we already know all about that) and more about tinkering with it. Use it if you like, but keep the arguments out. Thanks.

Interesting, although its VERY incomplete. I can only surmise that this is a "just to get it out there" kind of thing.

The comments on the video are already entertaining.

People, if you don't have any idea what this is, where it comes from, or why it's being posted..... DON'T INSTALL IT!!!!

If some idiot (me ) puts a video on the intertubes, it does NOT mean that you need to follow it. Watch it, learn from it, but if you don't like the outcome.....DON'T INSTALL IT!!!!!

Also, I total get why people bail from giving even the smallest amount of help to others. Nobody asked me to do this video, I just saw a need for it and made it. And... I'll do it again once cyanogen's stuff comes out for it.

Haters gonna hate, I guess.
