Install Android 4.0.3 ICS on HP TouchPad (CyanogenMod 9)

Now i will tell you about How to Install Android 4.0.3 ICS on the HP TouchPad (CyanogenMod 9),
The CyanogenMod Touchpad Team has released CyanogenMod 9 (of course it’s based on Ice Cream Sandwich) for the HP TouchPad that is still in alpha. Some features don’t work yet unfortunately like traditional storage mounting, the camera and the microphone option. Alpha 0.5 will be out soon so most of the bugs will probably get fixed with that.

Non-working features of CM9 Alpha 0 for the TouchPad :

• Hardware video (OMX). Consequently, Netflix won’t work and YouTube won’t play HD movies. As a temporary remedy, you can use alternative players (e.g., MXPlayer) and software codecs for viewing your local media files.
• Audio. Microphone is not functional. Current libaudio solution will no longer be developed further in favor of CAF libaudio, which will replace the current solution.
• Camera does not work.
• Market filters prevent some apps from being installed. Temporary solution is to revert to standard DPI settings (e.g., 120, 160, or 240).
• Titanium Backup crashes the kernel. This is being looked into and will most likely be resolved with latest updates to Titanium Backup.
• Most hardware problems from CyanogenMod 7 have been carried over to CyanogenMod 9 Alpha 0 for the HP TouchPad.
• Gapps for CyanogenMod 7 won’t work. This can be remedied by using an updated Gapps package.
• Traditional storage mounting is not supported. ICS uses MTP or PTP for USB file transfers.
