seriously, you guys are crazy awesome!

 

[Redflea]

wow, that's awesome.
btw, will things not working in cm7 a3.5 (Camera, microphone, bluetooth headset, etc) continue not to work in cm9 for a while? I meant, will these need to be fixed in cm7 first to make them work in cm9?

From what we've heard so far, CM7 development is over...

Excellent news, thanks for the vid Green. This was picked up by Engadget & The Verge already, probably plenty more news sites to come (incl. Lifehacker).

Keep up the great work, it's definitely appreciated!

No.
I think the plan is stop CM7 alpha support once CM9 alpha is out and all efforts would continue on CM9.
And we really do plan to release source right from the start this time. That should help with more helping hands too, we hope.

First of all, I can't thank you guys enough for the tireless work you do to make users like me happy. This can "never" be said enough!

Verrrrry nice, releasing the source will be great for others willing to dive in and help debug issues as well, this is just fabulous news.

Thanks again and again and again...

I'm so excited I can't wait. I love using my Touchpad with CM7, but gingerbread is so clearly a phone OS. Considering how much more useful my Touchpad has been with a phone OS on it I can't wait to see it with ICS

Great!

BTW, this is a great example of why we don't need to have endless threads about "when is it coming out??" and all the needless speculation. The CM team is all about the users, as soon as its ready, or even small progress updates like this, they let us know

And now I wait patiently like a kid in the candy store for this to be available for install.

Wow! I knew I made the right decision when I bought the touchpad during the original fire sale. I had faith in the open source community and have not been disappointed.

Lovin' CM7 and looking forward to CM9!

 

[Ricbug]

Wowwwww !!!!! Very great job.

 

[32BitWhore]

Fantastic work as always, you guys continue to impress me. Like was said above, I had faith in the open source community when I bought my TP, and I have not been disappointed.

Very excited!

Cannot wait!

2 HP Touchpads are waiting with welcomed arms.

 

[Parkway233]

I am happy to see the video. Eagerly awaiting CM9, love the work you did on CM7, I have had very few issues with the alpha versions of CM7 (other than the obivious no working camera). Love CM7 alpha and I don't use webOS anymore on my touchpad. Bring on the fun with CM9. Thanks again for all your work, you make playing with a HP Touchpad lots of fun. Hopefully installation through CWM can be done. Thanks again and look forward to it.

Wow I am so excited I hope it is soon

 

[Sebianoti]

Will i be able to install this alpha using clockworkmod recovery using a zip?
And does

 this fix the vpn pptp issues?​

i need PPTP VPN on a tablet and WebOS does it fine​

but it doesn't have the apps that i want.​

 

[Aganar]

Eagerly awaiting. If ICS is as good as they say, perhaps I can finally retire webOS altogether and stop hoping for an Android card-emulator for it.

 

[omegamongoose]

Green, dalingrin, you guys are awesome. I hope you can put all this work on a resume and get something else on top of your legendary status in the TouchPad community.

One of the biggest issues preventing us to make it available now is that there is really no easy way to install it yet, no package you can just drop into CWM/installer. Need to work on adding packaging support to the build scripts.

Looks and sounds like a release is being planned pretty soon then. I hope you go against those who are saying to wait until video playback is ready, many of us don't need it or could do without it. Besides, if the main things that don't work are the camera and video playback then I'd say it is a pretty damn good alpha.

Really appreciate the videos and progress updates, keep it up.

Video playback now works (was not at the time of the video shooting), but only in software mode.

Hardware mode doesn't support many video filetypes anyway, I find myself using software mode twice as much for playing video. Anyway, I guess doing CM7 really did help with getting ICS to work, I didn't expect a video of something working so well this early, good job ;D
