Upgrade from CM7 to CM9

Hi,
My daughter has the HP touchpad, I've already loaded CM7 using moboot method so she keeps webos. I can see now that many stable versions of CM9 exist and want to upgrade to one of the many ROMs available. Can I do this straight from clockwork mod or do I need to flash additional zip files in order for it to work properly. I have searched lots of forums and some are suggesting to use acme installer 2 but I have titanium backup so cannot see the point in this method. Any help is much appreciated.

Err what's the question .
Q:can I upgrade to CM9 from CM7 through clockwork recovery?
A:don't remember where I saw it but I do remember that it could not flash properly and result in bugs....
So its best to do a clean install using ur PC and following this

Look for a video from reverend kyle on youtube, its a pretty good explanation and tells you the files you need. The CM9 build will be outdated in the video so just use the latest gapps and CM9 build. Everything else will be the same. Basically you'll need to use you computer and ACMEInstaller2. If you ever want to install CM10 you'll want to use ACMEInstaller3.
Many thanks for the responses, I will see how I get on.

Might want to consider what was posted above, skip cm9, use acme uninstaller to start clean, then acmeinstaller3 and put one of the jellybean builds on.
JB takes up more system space, which acmeinstaller3 provides

You know codes.
Using a base is "porting" a ROM not building one.
There are a bunch here on porting, but in the end its a lot of trial and error. Reading logcats, an working from there.
Since the ported ROM wasn't built for your device, there's no specific directions on how to do it and have it work for every device out there.

[Q] miui for lg optimus l9 p769?

Can anyone please port a miui rom to the lg optimus l9 p769, or the avatar rom? I like the whole interface and look on the rom, I am currently running cyanogenmod 10.1 4.2.2 and it runs great, but am really looking forward to miui or avatar on thr p769, please port the rom , thanks in advance And thanks to all the developers out there who spent hours and days on building roms for us to enjoy :good:
I made an attempt, it went to the miui boot screen but didn't boot all the way up. I won't make any promises but I'll make another attempt.

I also tried to port to P768. The most hard part is try to correct all patch conflict because it's not a copy & paste job. I use Europe open V20H as base. Not sure I can port it but it teach me a lot about how smali work.
Thanks for the replies, the first time i installed miui was on the htc hd2 and samsung galaxy s, and got to say that it was the best rom for me besides cyanogen, I like the idea that miui can be customized and to look like anything......thanks again

I use instruction from https://github.com/MiCode/patchrom/tree/jellybean and https://github.com/MiCode/patchrom/blob/jellybean/Patchrom Developer Guide.pdf
but there are porting guide at http://en.miui.com/thread-5432-1-1.html
For me if you follow instruction in github you need to understand how smali work because sometime you need to under stand what that part of program do. And for some function you need to remove LG code that not compatible with miui patch. Miui patch is base on google stock rom so port it to LG modified rom is not a easy task as compiling CM. You also need to modify variable name to match target rom and how to call function because you cannot directly pass variable index above v16 to function (for example, p0, p1, ... is store after local variable, you can read about this in smali reference ).
Thanks ill see what i can do

[REQUEST] port twrp to smultron

I am a twrp fan and at the moment the only kernel I found including twrp is the lupus. But on my rom's OP lupus kernel is not recommended and the most compatible kernel is nAa 2.6.32. I have pm nAa asking him to build a version of his kernel with twrp but I didn't even got an answer. Then I asked for help on the official twrp site but didn't get answer, too. I have also tried to follow the instructions to build twrp with my own but I'm a completely noob on kernel and recovery developing. My last change was to find a way to decompile lupus and nAa kernels and replace the nAa 's cwm with the lupus' s twrp, but the folder structure wasn't the same. So I decided to ask, kindly for help. Are you a dev /advance user or just know a little about kernel compiling? Do you have a lot of free time? If yes, then try to help me by providing me a working recovery.img or give me a detailed, step to step and noob friendly guide to do it myself!
PS: I'm using smultron and I don't have Ubuntu or cygwin installed on my pc.

I know this guide. It is to complicated for me and also I dont have fast internet, so it will take ages to download the sources. Any way to edit an existing boot.img to make it work on my device?
