Requirements

• OpenJDK 1.7 or greater

• Novacom or Adb

• Novacom will get installed automatically when you run WebOS Quick Install (except on linux for now). ADB is required for LuneOS only.

• DevMode enabled

• This can be done on your device by typing "upupdowndownleftrightleftrightbastart", opening the DeveloperMode app, and enabling the feature. Not required for LuneOS.

• When you plug in the device, if you want to use WebOS Quick Install, choose the "Just Charge" option on the device.

Running WebOS Quick Install

• Simply double-click WebOSQuickInstall.jar and (as long as Java is installed properly) it will launch.
