Make topaz.xml copy to makefile... And remake CUSTOM_XML=topaz.xml all

Flash it to webos3.0.0 first. And use novainstall77 flash it to webos 3.0.5. And flash CM10 later......

Saw some webos fans have question in TpDebrick004 threads like this:
Executing file...
Checking QDL mode...
QDL second stage mode not found
Aborting

Or like this
Checking QDL mode...
QDL mode not found
Aborting

Make sure hold power+Home+ vol down over 30 seconds. If still see above lines that means Qualcomm CPU or Emmc ...were burned. Need to repalce a working mainboard....

[lemanho]

There are two dead TP mainboards on hand. So look for two brand new Qualcomm APQ 8060 cpu with hard ways (For tabelet use only not for mobile phone). Will replace it for my friends on sunday....

[lemanho]

thank you Mr John Steffes. thanks his great job. Upgrade touchpadgo from ATT 3.0.4 to ATT 3.0.5
1. Can run and finish ATT 3.0.5 doctor. It seem very slow .
2. Stuck on HP account set up as normal touchpadgo. Need to the other software to solve it.
3. So grab the Att.tar and Webos.tar from 3.0.5 rom. Flash it with my way. Due to skip modem update/media partition/touchpanel update. It is very fast to flashing.
4. No need to set HP account and show home screen immediately.
5. Running the software as fast as Touchpad ATT 4G (both use 1.5Ghz CPU).

[lemanho]

Haha...same problem as Chris's touchpadgo and HP logo breathing endless . Do not remember which software cause. Will flash it back to ATT 3.0.4 tonight. Because can show chinese app and chinese baidu input in 3.0.4.........

[lemanho]

downgrade touchpadgo from 3.0.5 to 3.0.4. and flash back chinese language package into it. That's fine.
So touchpadgo ATT 3.0.5 doctor is OK. Don't worry Go problems and doctor it like touchpad....
Next target will flash chinese language into 3.0.5 rom......

[GMMan]

I'm sure the "Name" label could be translated better.

[lemanho]

Haa. What's name you suggest...
One strange thing that can not activate HP account by Impostah. But I could do it in last year. Don't know why

[daexpression]

lemanho...any more of those touchpadgo ..devices lying around lol....

I suggest "机名", since "姓名" is literally "last name first name", and there's no such distinctions for a machine. Not sure if it's just using a global language file, though.

I do not work for HP. I am just a fan like palmos and webos from Pilot1000/professional.....Touchpad/go. If you know how to flash Palm V/Vx rom (Blk/wht screen). You are old enough like me.....

It is diffcult to find out touchpadgo. Cause HP stopped the Go programme and destroyed the finished product. Only a few of Go spread out.

can look for it in resources file from rom....
2. downloard and compare 3.0.2/3.0.2(1)/3.0.4/3.0.4(1)/3.0.5 rom for touchpad 3G+wifi version. All use att.tar (52654080). 3.0.2 webos.tar (228495360). 3.0.2(1) webos.tar (228495360).3.0.4 webos.tar (233963520). 3.0.4(1) webos.tar (233953280). 3.0.5 webos.tar (231925760)....
3. Need two tar files when try to use nova device install software to flash hp device. must put above hp.tar or att.tar into local base image. and put the webos.tar into local customization image that you want...
4. So Can I do this?? take a touchpad wifi version and flash the wifi+3G rom in it ??? Because it doesn't need doctor and just flash the device directly.......Still looking for dead touchpad to try this way.


Annouce again. Big risk to flash device and will damaged the mainboard if one step wrong. I know that somebody had damaged the touchpadgo mainboard .....

Flashed the ATT 3G 3.0.5 rom into 16G wifi touchpad with Ubuntu PC in the weekend.
1. Device info no changed. Cause hardware do not support 3G function. showed AT&T communication Manager app on wifi touchpad version.
2. Will show CPU+Arrow+HP round logo on the screen while flashing ( funny).
3. Can flash speical rom into touchpad if you want.....

No.No...that's impossible. Wifi version mainboard and 3G mainboard are big different. Vol connector and sim card set are different. Also there is 3G cable inside the edge of screen....

I think that you had a 32G 4G touchpad on hand. So suggest to DIY.....

[daexpression]

alright Lemanho, understand..been running the 32GB/WIFI for a while..and was contemplating the 32/3G or 4G versions....lets see if can grab one from anywhere.
btw is there anyway to get spare plastic bezels? - the stupid crack at the speakers are a pain.....

[lemanho]

Fixed a problem ATT 16G Pre3 last night. Share it here...
1. ATT 16G Pre3 with downloard a lot softwares and patches. Also upgrade a special 2.2.4 Rom. Deleted the reset options from Device Information alraedy.
2. Running ATT 2.2.4 Rom doctor. Stopped at 4% in the process.
3. So grab the webos.tar and Att.tar from 2.2.4 Rom. Flashing it with NDI and suceeded.

1. Using Superman JC TPDebrick 004 to Flower screen. That means no OS in the touchpad
2. Connect to PC show palm bootie like big USB symbol (But still show Flower screen).
3. Can not use touchpad doctor to flash it.
4. Using NDI to flash it to webos 3.0.5..............
