Does that make it mount as a drive letter? Mine mounts as a media device but I'd kind of like a drive letter because I, er, still use File Manager...
Shut up, Coco.
ICS dropped UMS support, not sure if CM added it back in. Either way you, why not transfer files via wifi with samba/windows shares?
No strings attached.
Make a folder called cminstall on your TP and copy/paste all those files in to there. Although, I had to use clockwork to unzip the gaaps file.
Good Job Bob

Turn off TP.
Reboot. Choose Clockwork Mod in the Moboot menu. Install zip from sdcard. Navigate to file. Install.
Use the volume buttons to navigate up/down and the home button to select.
Much thanks.
Can't wait for everything to get fixed.
For some reason the touchpad wont show up on my computer while in android.
No, it dropped UMS support if the file system sees internal memory as SD.
edit: Basically, the explanation they gave was that ICS supports UMS, but Galaxy Nexus' architecture only allowed for MTP.
Had exact issue. Turn off ADB in developer, then go to storage, click on the three triangles on top right, then enable MTP.

how do I mount a share?
You could use something like CIFS Manager to mount it locally, however it's easier using the LAN option in ES File Explorer and just accessing your various shares through there.

Agreed. This is crazy fuckin good. I can't believe what a shit bucket WebOS is.
Ics really shows how good the hardware actually is. The browser is butter smooth.
Just need video working.
Awesome thanks!

The TP has 2 cores.
So I was going through the tutorial on howtogeek.com step-by-step, and everything went smoothly. Now at the BOTTOM of the page is says how to install google apps. It says to put the gapps_ics folder into the Touchpad "cminstall" folder, but when I plug in my Touchpad to the computer, it's listed as "cm_tenderloin", and there is no "cminstall" on it. Do I have to turn off the Touchpad and boot into WebOS?
edit: went ahead and did that, and it worked. I'm so glad to have a use for my Touchpad now! ICS is unbelievably better than WebOS.

But it's a bloody alpha0.
edit: I miss the up-swipe
Yeah the up swipe is pretty ingenious, I miss it too.. I even try using it on my iphone. I
How did cm partition the touchpad though? I'm not sure so it's possible it's like the NS where it supports UMS on ICS, or if CM just went full hog and set it up like the xoom/tf/GN.
Depends on the computer you're on. mac/windows/linux?
I can't really comment unless I see the hardware implementation. I don't think it's software/CM dependent.
It wouldn't work inside apps though...
Has anybody else here had problems charging? I plugged the Touchpad in to the wall adapter, and the charging icon showed up. I left it plugged in for a couple of hours, and when I looked at it again, it hadn't gone up in charge whatsoever. I looked in the settings and it said battery was "discharging", even though the charging icon was clearly there on the bottom by the time.

The ACME installer takes care of all the partitioning to prep for the CM install. Can't really how they set it up though.
Sure didn't, thanks!
No, I meant the partitioning has nothing to do with UMS capabilities and everything to do with the hardware setup.
Go into webos and put cm9 into cminstall again. Make sure you use acmeinstaller2 but I'm sure you did.
I followed the guide for ICS to the letter but in my bootloader I don't get the option to boot into CM9 :S and when I reboot into WebOS the CM9 file has been deleted from the TouchPad
This is all I get
Any ideas?
Double check to see if the cm9 install zip was deleted from the cminstall directory. If it isn't deleted, then it probably wasn't installed?
Tried it three times now, and I am using ACMEInstaller2 yeah.
It has been deleted, seems to happen every time.
It goes through all the Linux stuff, reboots and there is no CM9 option.
I then boot into WebOS to check cminstall and there is no ROM ZIP in there even though I had one placed there.
We talking when the screen is off? I'm not sure of exact numbers but I feel the battery is the same as Xron CM7, which is good enough for me. I don't know how good tablet batteries are supposed to be..
edit: wait, so that means a complete drain in 200 minutes? Screen off, thats totally wrong. Screen on, what apps are you running?
That also didn't work, I did however try a different CM9 download and it finally worked through ACME, must've been a problem with my ROM download.
Cheers for the help nonetheless guys!
I never said the screen was off.
I turn off my tablet completely when I'm not using it.
Low brightness.
I think it's built it. Look under display options, I think if you press and hold the "recent apps" button it will take a snapshot.
Volume down + power button = best app?
I know, thats why it was the first thing I asked. What are you running when it loses battery like that?
Stock web browser. Google Reader. Gmail.
I also find that the battery % is lower when I turn my tablet on from cold boot compared to the battery % from previous use.
It is a similar problem with webOS as well as somehow the device in the off state consumes more battery than the webOS screen off idle state with wifi off.
Something's not right.
