@the OP, as far as CM7 "charging", it is still charging at the same rate as webOS, it just doesn't know that it is not getting a proper charge, so it reports that the device is charging. Basically it's a software notification, but the actual charge being received is the same (not enough) in either OS.
As everyone has said, I highly recommend the TouchStone. My other recommendation, tell him to contact HP support, they should overnight a replacement AC adapter (at least they did for me). The adapter that came with my TP was DOA, I had done full tests (as I had the adapter from the TS as well), hit chat support and they were sending me a new one within 5 to 10 minutes.
Technically if you can find a charger with the same specs as the original HP barrel charge (which has the correct signaling level on the data line) you will achieve full rate charging.
However, as of this posting and as far as I or any of the other TP owners who have attempted to find one is concerned, they don't exist.
If you know different please supply a link as I would buy one as a spare and if there is a car charger version one of those as well and stop using the modified cable that I have to use at present for charging by car charger (they use the same switching signal as the AC barrel charger).
