This is CyanogenMod 10.1, a highly customizable AOSP-based ROM, now ported to the HP Slate 7 Plus!

To avoid any crashes while using this ROM make a Nandroid backup and wipe cache, dalvik-cache and data.
This ROM requires ClockWorkMod to be on your device. You can get it here.

Only one or two downloads will be here at a time to save space.

CyanogenMod is not yet ready, a few kernel tweaks are needed to get the thing to boot up

I stole the ROM zip from the server :p

When I try to flash it says :

Code:
about to run program [/tmp/backuptool.sh] with 2 args
Not backing up files from incompatible version: 10.1
run_program: child exited with status 127
format: unsupported fs_type "ext4" partition_type "EMMC"script aborted (no error message)
script aborted (no error message)E:Error in /sdcard/cm-10.1-20140223-UNOFFICIAL-birch.zip
(Status 7)
Installation aborted

I compared the format command in updater-script from your ROM with the stock one, and I can't find any difference.
I really don't understand ...
I even tried to only let this to updater-script :
Code:
format("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/platform/sdhci-tegra.3/by-name/APP", "0", "/system");
mount("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/platform/sdhci-tegra.3/by-name/APP", "/system");
package_extract_dir("system", "/system");
but it fails too with the same error ...

I found this thread : http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2407649 not sure it can help.

Ok the problem was update-binary file, I replaced it with stock update-binary file : ROM installed succesfully.
I suppose your update-binary doesn't support ext4 file system.

Now when rebooting I'm stuck on the first HP logo :(

WTH
It could be a problem with SELinux, I hate that little devil sometimes.

Hi,

I have a question, I did install cwm on my hp slate 7 plus (4200ef), but is it normal that I cannot make a backup of the system with it?

And I don't know the manipulation to directly access the recovery mode, on the hp slate 7 plus .... I try many things like Power + volume up or down and nothing...

I would like to try cyanogenmod but I didn't backup the orginal firmware ... I would like a least backup my ToZlate firmware.... and parameters...

Thanks If you can tell me!!

I used backup only once from CWM, it worked on a fat32 formatted SDCard. Stock ROM can be downloaded from HP website. Hold Power and Volume+ when Slate is off, you should see 4 little lines at the top of the screen.

Thanks for your answer !

It worked I was able to go to the recovery...

Thanks for the backup !! I didn't thought that I would need a sd card...

I search on the HP web site but I didn't found the stock firmware... maybe on the US website.. I will search but not on the french site...

Thanks again.. I think I will try cyanogenmod as soon as it will be released !!!


Thanks for your work

I'm redoing the whole kernel as I believe that's the issue.

(offtopic) @zarto your new avatar looks like Gordon Freeman almost XD
I need to make an avatar in Androidify

Other devices have been distracting me. Sorry guys.
I am porting PAC-ROM to my device and if it works I have an idea to get CM to boot.

Sorry guys, the build failed. I still have something up my sleeve though :)
This error was a configuration error and shouldn't be too hard to fix.

    Hi,

    Is it a personnal server? (home on a virtual machine) or is it a paid server?
    If you need a virtual machine with ubuntu 14.10 on it, I can provide you one from my own ESXi server ...

    This is a dedicated server that @zarto built for me. Normally I access it via TeamViewer.

    EDIT: I just got word that the server is once again fully operational. :D

    Bug??
    There is hotspot option?

    The ROM is not ready yet, I'm tackling that error.
