Here's my standard "How to doctor a TouchPad" response:
How to Doctor an HP TouchPad (reflash the ROM)
On your Touchpad be sure to have:
USB cable.
The battery is charged to at least 30%.
Computer:
Windows 7, Windows XP, Windows Vista
Available USB port (not a hub or secondary port).
Java 1.5 or later is installed. If you are not sure about what version of Java you have, or even if Java is installed, go to www.java.com and click the Do I have Java? link to install the latest version of Java.
210MB of storage space.
Internet connection.
Miscellaneous Info:
The update process will take approximately 15 minutes.
During this process, your device will not be available for use.
Downloading webOS Doctor
Download webOS Doctor on your desktop computer. If you have a webOS profile, get it from http://ws.hpwebos.com/webosdoctor/sorry.htm
If not, check the webOS Internals page: http://www.webos-internals.org/wiki/Webos_Doctor_Versions
Get your TouchPad ready to update
Hold the Power Button for several seconds until a menu appears.
Tap Shut Down to completely power down your device.
Running webOS Doctor
Double-click the file that was downloaded to run webOS Doctor.
Follow the on screen directions up until you are asked to connect your device.
Select the language you selected on your device, and click Next.
Confirm your language choice.
Click Accept to accept the terms of use.
Click Next. webOS Doctor checks your system. BE PATIENT! I've seen this part take a few minutes to complete.
After webOS Doctor finishes checking your system, you will be asked to connect your device.
Connecting your device and finishing the webOS Doctor update
Connect your device to your computer using the USB cable. You must connect your device directly to your computer, not through a USB hub or other intermediate device.
Now the tricky part. Hold the Volume Up button on the device and insert the USB cable. After the large USB symbol appears on screen, let go of the Volume Up button. If you see the HP logo instead of the large USB symbol, you may have let go of the Volume Up button prematurely. If this occurred , wait until your device boots up, shut down your device and then repeat step 2.
Windows will find your device and may offer to install two different drivers.
When asked to install drivers of OMAP, select No, not at this time.
When asked to install drivers for Palm Novacom (bootie), select Yes and let the drivers install. This may take a while. Once the drivers have been installed, the Next button will become available in webOS Doctor.
Click Next.
Do not disconnect your device from the computer during the update process.
When the Reset Complete screen appears, click Done.
Wait a few minutes for your device to reset.
You're done!

  • How to keep that valve open for certain period of time and shut off automatically

    Hi everyone,
    The objective of the VI is to measure pH and then open acid or base valve based on pH valve. Below is my UNFINISHED VI
    My question is:  if, for example, the  pH is 10, then, the program will open acidic valve for 5 seconds and then shut off automatically. After that, wait for 5 second. this process will go on and on as I use while loop, but I just dont know how to control the valve on for 5sec and off and then wait for 5sec.
    Anyone can help me out?    Thank you very much
    In the picture, please enter those values before running
    P.S The VI is based on previously posted vi by someone who made it 1 yrs ago.

    1. The reason the valves close immediately is that the Elapsed Time VI does not cause any wait, it only measures the time. So the valves closed within a small fraction of a second of the time they opened.
    2. I modified your VI to wait until the Elapsed Time has ended.  See the "wait" state.  I probably modified some of your other functionality in the process, but this shows one way you could do the timing. 
    3. You do not need any Value property nodes.  They should never be used if the value can be wired directly.
    4. You do not need any sequence structures. Dataflow will determine the order of things occurring.
    5. If you use an enum for the state machine (and it is a good way to name and select states), you should make it a type def. Then when you need to change it as I did to add several states, you only need to change the Type Def in one place and the changes propagate through to every place you used the control or constants derived from it.
    6. I added a Halt state which will close both valves before stopping the program.  When you are controlling a real world process, it is important to consider the start up and shutdown requirements. For example the digital outputs of the USB-6008 default to inputs when the device is first powered up. And, the inputs are pulled high by a 4700 ohm resistor (at least I think I recall that value). Will this open your valves before the program starts running and sets the I/O lines to outputs and forces them low?
    The USB-6008 has rather limited drive on the digital lines. You will probably need a buffer between it and the valve coils.
    PID and PWM are more complicated than I want to get into here.  First, are your valves proportional or on/off? Second, (assuming that they are on/off) how fast can you open and close them without destroying them in the first week? What is their expected lifetime in terms of the number of operations? How fast do you need to be able to change them to keep your pH where you want it?  Are these values compatible?

  • Captivate8 shut off automatically

    Captivate8 has just been install by our technician  on my corporate laptop (window7).
    However captivate shuts off automatically every time i start using the question slide or quiz, it won't let me edit any questions.
    Do I need reinstalling?
    Is it because i's corporate network?
    Please help.

    I  could be that your Default Locations (in Edit > Preferences > General > Default Locations) are pointing at network locations,  or that you are not able to use Launch As Administrator privileges to run Captivate because your user profile does not have Administrator Privileges.

  • 5c shut off automatically and wont turn back on

    My iPhone 5c shut off automatically and wont turn back on. I tried to turn it back on and it didn't work, so then, I went to plug it into the charger. It didn't start up or show the apple logo, it just vibrated every five seconds. So after awhile I went on to iTunes and tried to see if I could reset the factory settings, after it attempted to download it said that I needed to type in my password on my phone, but how was I suppose to do that if I can't turn my phone on in the first place??? (By the way, I accidentally dropped it, about five inches off of the ground, about an hour prior to this happening. so I don't know if dropping it had anything to do with it, because it seemed fine after I picked it up.) Help. Really, really, REALLY need it. thanks.

    If a SMC reset does not help, make an appointment at an Apple store genius bar for a free evaluation.

  • 3rd gen nano shuts off automatically

    When I dock my 3rd gen nano into my Bose portable it randomly shuts off and displays the battery charging screen on the nano.
    When I press the start button the Bose remote the nano will play again for a few songs then shut off again. This doesn't happen with my ipod video.

    I called Apple Support last night to make sure they are aware of this problem. While on the line, we tested a few scenarios, and it seems that the nano only shuts off automatically if the pause / play buttons are used on the Bose Sounddock remote. When I started the nano using its controls rather than the remote, everything worked fine, including adjusting the volume, skipping songs. Only the play / pause button caused the problem, but really, who knows at this point.
    I also noticed this problem only after "upgrading" to firmware 1.0.2. I will try to restore the nano to its factory settings this evening (1.0.1) and see what happens.

    Hi Lidmar,
    First, please try this:  Remove the battery pack from the camera and close the battery compartment.  Now Press and hold down the power button for 5 seconds.  Replace the battery pack and turn the camera on.
    If your camera works normally, you're ready to start shooting.  If the issue persists, we recommend that you send your camera in for service.  You may arrange service for your camera here.

  • I bought my iphone 4s in August, since then it has gotten really hot on the back of the phone and shut off automatically three times.  Is this common?

    I bought my iphone 4s in August of this year.  Since then it has gotten really hot and shuts off automatically.  When it does this, I had not been on the phone using it.  Is this a common occurance?

    This is not a common occurrence. You should make an appointment at an Apple Store to have the phone checked.

  • X230 tablet shuts off randomly

    Applies to being unplugged and plugged in. It's not due to have power consumption, usually just shuts off from within minutes of logging into my account. Safe mode seems to delay this problem for a while.
    Best way to go about fixing this? Malwarebytes doesnt detect any viruses.

    The odd thing is that mine started doing it right after the new download, so I was convinced it was related. Anyways, after reading other posts, people kept on insisting that I should try different headphones. My headphones (which were originally with the IPOD) were a little loose, so I used my husband's headphones which fit nice and snug. Incredibly, the problem disappeared!! As silly as it sounds, try new headphones that fit nice and tight! Good luck and let me know if it works for you too!

  • Iphone 3gs powers off/shuts off automatically/randomly when using various apps.

    Did update recently (about 2-3 weeks ago) and have been experiencing problems with phone automatically shutting down/off in the middle of various apps.  I-phone says operating system is Version 4.3.5 (8L1).  This random power-off has happened in Safari, Facebook, different games, Words w Friends, mobile newspaper apps, news apps, etc.  The only way to get phone back on is to plug it in to power source.  This occurs no matter how full or low the battery is charged.  Any ideas???

    I'd say it was the phone if it's switching it's self off.
    If it was just a signal issue then that would be O2, but not if it's turning it's self off. Phone apple to get an appointment at an apple store, they can test it and replace if necc.

  • How do I shut off automatic  button navigation?

    I don't seem to have the choice in preferences it just has buttons navigate automatically right or left or up or down...I want to shut them off I have version 4.2.0 mac osx 10.5.6 version, 2x2.8 ghz quad core intel thanks

    On the menu screen, in the upper right corner, you will find a button for "Settings". Make sure "Auto Assign Buttons Continuously" is not checked.
    Then you can select each button individually and then look at the Inspector. Hit the Advanced tab and you will see you can program the Up, Down, Left, Right buttons however you want.

  • My iphone 4s shuts off automatically, and i can't turn it on with just the power button i need to do the "reset" all the time. it's been happening since sunday and today is already tuesday. what is happening?

    OS - 6.1.3
    After it turns off it gets put into " recovery mode". and even if i do the "restart", i have to do it several times before the phone actually turns on. phone is 1 year and 5 mos old. already tried to restore it but it just keeps on shutting down. can anybody help?

    Hi, thank you very much for your reply. No my phone was never been jailbreak-ed. Never been dropped in water or in any wet surface. Dropped on the floor while texting yes, but it was just a one time incident, last year august i can clearly remember, but after that no more (phone still works fine even after.) restored the phone again earlier, but problem still occured. Will try to go to Apple also to ask and have it checked.  Just worried because my phone is already out of warranty. Will keep you posted. Again, thanks. If you have any more advice just let me know. It would mean a lot.
    Cheers,

  • Why does my shuffle shut off automatically?

    While running with my shuffle, the music stopped abruptly after approx. 32 minutes even though the voice was saying the battery was 75%.  I could not reset it after turning it off for 5 seconds.  I later re-installed/re-registered and this worked for a couple of times and then one day the music to stop after 43 minutes.  Is there a setting or something that I need to revise?

    Go to /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration and look for these files:
    com.apple.AutoWake.plist
    com.apple.PowerManagement.plist.
    Trash them and then restart your Mac. Go back to System Preferences and reset your Energy Saver settings.
