Could I ask for a translation please.

[lemanho]

I am sorry what you mean a translation....

some comments for this touchpad andriod version
1. can use stone to charge battery as TP (I like it. ...)
2. connect to PC as Qualcom HSUSB drive. It need to install 4-5 drivers and reboot PC.
4. Open the USB mold on this device. Can transfer some picture/music to device SD card.
5. Can be downloard Google Play from net. But can not installl.....
6. Can be downloard andriod market (Chinese version). Can install it and running it
7. Can downloard Angry birds from andriod market. But can install/can not run...(misunderstood)
8. Can downloard Halfbrick /can install/can run....(Do not understand why)
9. the softwares which downloard from net can not transfer to SD card. So phone storage is 100-200MB that is not enough.........

Sounds like you have one of those original 7" Touchpad GO's that came with Froyo installed natively. I personally have seen two of themto date, and know of the existance of three others in Taiwan. If that's the device you are holding, then they can be converted to webOS if you're willing to spend some time in front of a linux box. also rumor has it jcsullins may be working on puttinga dual boot cm9 build onto one of them too. That'd be ideal, webOS and CM9 , much better than a native Froyo installation ....

Or is it really a 9.7" Hp Touchpad device with Froyo on it? Heard of them, never actually saw anything (pictures or devices) to confirm they really exist. .....

That's true. You can PM me for more detail if you like this device. I do not want do the way as you mention.Because I have ordinary touchpad 32G WiFi that running webOS And CM9 already.Also I had killed one Touchpadgo 32G 3G by myself. I got the touchpad 64G 3G (Not ATT 4G) and Touchpadgo 16G 3G andriod version this week. I will open the new topics to talk about it later.....
There are over 10 sets HP touchpad and HP touchpadgo on my hand.

Can not use china telecom 3G WCDMA card for this device..........

Just sell it to me so I can replace the MBM with a Sierra LTE MBM, and load webOS on it.


Can't imagine continuing to use Froyo on any device these days .............. arrrraaaghhhhhh

[lemanho]

Why you want upgrade it to Webos ? You mean that can keep the original android 2.2.1 and run webOS in it..Just like CM9 ....Wow.
I want to sell it to you who is supper fans for touchpad and touchpadgo......

[GMMan]

I don't know, Froyo is pretty old. Sure, most apps support it still, but with all the new Android versions coming out it just feels so ...behind.

It may be good to have a ROM dump, though.

(Off topic: Does Android have membooting? There's the recovery, but you can't dump the original if you replace it with a custom one, and you can't dump ROM without having a custom recovery.)

[lemanho]

I find the way to flash this device from andriod 2.2.1 to webos 3.0.5 directly . Just follow up "How to flash webos image with andriod on topaz" issued on Oct11 2010 by hp. But do not find way flash touchpad webos to andriod 2.2.1or 2.3.3.......

[dkirker]

The second to last photo suggests that this is a TouchPad. The 9.7in kind. Also given that the TouchPad's code name is Topaz (as it shows in the model number.

[lemanho]

Of course. This is touchpad 32G wifi 9.7 inch. But buiding up andriod 2.2.1 in it. No webos rom......
