One Click Root

The is pretty much the easies way to root your xoom. A one click method, and also unroot it back to stock if anything need to be done, like take it for repair to motorola or the upgrade for lite. It works for both wifi only and 3G. Just make sure you click the correct method for your kind of device.

There is also videos out there on youtube and google with it being done, that's how I got mine done. And more of a visual guy.

Here is the link from here on XDA, good luck. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1011196

Here is a link to the video I use, these guys have videos on both rooting and unrooting, enjoy fellow Xoom. http://theunlockr.com/2011/03/30/how-to-root-the-motorola-xoom-wifi-or-3g-one-click-method/
[Xoom General] bmancell:
Well there we go! lol

Thanks a bunch.

I assume once I am rooted I just install that SetCPU app and play with it?
[Xoom General] marinierb:
Best reason to root? Ad-blocking hosts file!
[Xoom General] MitchRapp:
same thing here...wifi only in canada. I used one-click root ... click ok like 15 times and you're done!
[Xoom General] 0212353:
one click rooting, nice! I'm new to all this rooting stuff........so that might just push me over the edge!
[Xoom General] MikeyMike01:
Other than ad blocking, not really. I haven't root'd mine.

Sent from my Captivate
[Xoom General] bmancell:
Yea the part that gets me is the ability to unroot and put back to stock, just in case I need my warranty.
[Xoom General] supremecream06:
yeah the ability to unroot is the best thing since the xoom. Lol. Cuz you can always go back to original. Just a side note be very careful with that setCPU' it can be useful, and hurtful.the xoom is fast already, but. I mean as other have said, it is safe to an extend, but I would keep it that hight. One becauxe of battery life, and two because it could become an issue. I think if it was totally safe to clock that might, motorola would have been the one to do so, and would have put this device out the as having a 1.5Ghz processor. So just be careful, and as soon as you notice anything not right or normal, head for the door. Lol. (Go back to stock)

A-men.
[Xoom General] robbiev80:
I also bought my xoom at future shop. I used that link above to root my xoom and now im overclocking as well.
[Xoom General] raviosopr:
Do rooting enable the "Market Enabler" app?? and if the answer is yes, do this app fix the problem of the missing apps by hacking the market provider to [US] Verizon??????
[Xoom General] alias_neo:
It needs root and busybox. Basically, it lets you set your carrier to any carrier you like to fool the market.

It is often used by people who's countries don't provide market access.

Since I don't have a XOOM yet I can't vouch for its functionality on there but I don't see why it shouldn't work.
[Xoom General] supremecream06:
only 3g

I believe the above comment is correct. And as a side note I think the above app is only going to work with the 3G Xoom, not the Wifi only version. Because of the celluler radio. I have heard that both the wifi and 3g have a radio, because even the wifi version has a sim card slot, due to it being combine with the micro sd card. If this proof to be true, it could be a good deal for use with the wifi only. Cuz that means I pay $200 less. And if it is there, motorola will likely not make it active. But then once the codes are release, folk on XDA will make that dream a reality.
[Xoom General] alias_neo:
Don't count on that slot working on the wifi model. The important hardware like the radio will likely not he there.

The only reason the slot is there is because its combined with the SD slot and it would be costly and pointless for them to source an alternative socket just for the wifi model.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mmegalodon:
Not sure about throwing a lock at the checkout screen, but there are apps that can lock up specific applications. So a pass would be required to enter the market as a whole.

[Windows Phone 7 General] WooDoo.CZ:
Hi. Fist i want to apologise for my engilsh. In this moment i have android phone Desire Z. I am happy with him, but i really like WP7 UI. I think that WP7 is more faster than Android, more intuitive and more user friendly. Android is too cumbersome. I want to buy some device with WP7, but i think that every device on the market is too old. I mainly point on hardware(CPU, etc..). I know that now it is enought good, but i am looking into the future. I don't want to buy one and after half year buy new one because my is too slow. They show them when Microsoft introduced WP7 and then nothing. I hear every moment about any new Android phone but WP7 totally nothing. Maybe Nokia is going to release any phone but i don't like Nokia. So i ask if is any new phone going to come or no. Maybe from HTC? Samsung? LG?
[Windows Phone 7 General] tfouto:
no one knows when the new chassis will come. Maybe in the end of the year. Just wait and see... :)
[Windows Phone 7 General] vangrieg:
Me, I would change phones every months if there were phones, so I don't mind being an early adopter. If you want to keep your phone for a long time, you should probably wait until the second half of the year.

That being said, I doubt current devices will be "slow", but current hardware isn't too sexy anyway.
[Windows Phone 7 General] DatDereX1:
It won't be considered old or slow for a long time. I was going to wait but got one last month. Wish I had gotten it sooner.
[Windows Phone 7 General] agp64:
I am still waiting for A decent WP7 to be released as the current generation of WP7 phones on offer are nothing to wright home about, I would get a Samsung Omnia 7 (16GB) or a Focus but nether are offered in Singapore. The other thing holding me back from getting a WP7 phone is no GPS compatible software and WiFi tethering out of the box.

I was so hoping these things would be resolved by now.

Even android is lacking in the GPS maps Available for Asian buyers.:mad:

No wonder so many still go for an I phone as all these features are available from the start.

The other area I find window and android a letdown is accessories with nether offering accessories like docking stations and a good range of cases.

At least the Nokia partner ship will resolve the compatible maps for those outside the US. And as most Nokia phones have tethering I hope this will be added as well.:)

Please release A Nokia WP7 ASAP. :)
[Windows Phone 7 General] Nakazul:
I remember seeing the video demo of mango, running fast on Omnia 7.

The hardware is importent, sure, but if where talking speedwise, i belive my Omnia 7 will live on long. WP7 is a optimized OS against hardware. Android, being a "slaped on os" will always need twice the speed on HW to match WP7.

Sent from my Omnia 7 using Board Express
[Windows Phone 7 General] Nakazul:
And correction, it still cant match in speed and fluid os.

[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bengtner:
I have installed the custom ROM Cyanogen CM7.0 RC4 v014 Gingerbread 2.3.3 but I can't get the radio up and running. "Unknown" baseband version is the message, so it seems like have the wrong baseband version. The thread about this ROM states the right baseband version is included in the zip file. I can't find it inspecting the RAR file, so I assumed it is included in the ROM as such and the baseband will be flashed together with the ROM. Is this the case?

I have tried several full wipes and reboots but nothing helps. I ROM starts OK but no signal.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bengtner:
I can answer my own question. I flashed the 52 baseband version and by this the radio was on again. My taking from this is the baseband ROM is not included in the Cyanogen v14 distribution.....
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Azur0n:
did u flash on 2.0.52? Because that's I think the only x.x.52 Baseband version that exists for x10i... also wanted to use that ROM, but my baseband (2.1.54) is not supported.....

BTW: is there any difference between 2.0.xx and 2.1.xx? :D
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bengtner:
Yes, I used 2.0.52. For a moment I started to think about if there is a 2.1.52, but it looks like SE just have one consecutive series of ROM, and there is just one 52 version 2.0.52.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bkbk16:
The baseband used to be included in the .zip but J didn't include it for the last version or two. I guess he still hasn't changed the OP to tell people to get the baseband from a different thread in the dev section.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Azur0n:
ab Ok... would be usefull, to add this, so dumb ppl like me won't try to install it with 2.1.54. XD

Will soon flash on 52 and when cam-issues are fixed, i'll get my first ROM XD

I am running deck's rc9 rom, go launcher, and widget locker. I am getting force closes off of go launcher constantly. Anyone else having this problem? Should I just say **** it and switch to adw? Also, I have used set cpu to underclock the processor when the screen is off. When the screen goes back up it goes up (from 768 to 1113) could this be part of the problem?

My data's been throttled for four weeks now. I'm pretty sure that's a whole billing cycle, right? I'm stuck at 53kb per second and its driving me insane ._. Do you KNOW what you can do with 53 kb per second?! NAWTZING! I called tmobile already but they confirmed that there was no problem. They suggested that it might be my location ._. I'm not asking for help, cause I'm pretty sure there's no way around this. I'm just putting this out there.
[G2 and Desire Z General] Febby:
that sucks... The best you can try is maybe calling a technical rep and ask for your data/internet connection to be refreshed/reset... I feel your pain though, being throttled is horrible! I couldn't even do basic google searches or check facebook >=(
[G2 and Desire Z General] shortlived:
If your on a no contract plan. Call them up and tell them if you didn't know about the cap and to reset it or you will cancel your service. At this point they will transfer you to a retention specialist who gets paid to keep you with tmo. They will surely reset it at least once. Let me know how it goes.

I just got my DVP a few days ago...

Today I dropped it (the first time it dropped) and it shattered the glass...

everything works fine still...it is just so ugly I would like to get it fixed...

What can I do?

I cannot find any replacement parts, I cannot find any repair shops for this phone also... currently I am on hold trying to call dell (hopefully they give me good news?)....

I am lost and disappointed -I cant believe I cracked it esp. this soon!..

well I am asking for your advice / comments / help on this one, XDA ...

please advise me...

UPDATE: dell said it would be 249.99 to get a replacement phone...

good deal? or should I just get another phone or something? I am thinking of going through with it to get it done, but if there are cheaper options I am interested...
[Venue Pro General] pjfan75:
Did you try checking with @dellcares on Twitter? Someone had a similar issue the other day and said @dellcares helped them. Not sure exactly what the outcome was, but worth a shot.
[Venue Pro General] erebusting:
no, but dell charged me 249.99 to send me a replacement device...

they told me that a cracked screen is considered to be out of warranty (I think it also includes any physical damage as well...not sure about that part though)...
[Venue Pro General] alodar1:
you're lucky then. They sent me a copy of the posting on their community forums telling me its absolutely not covered. I could replace my 16g device...for $499.00. But they would throw in free over night shipping.
[Venue Pro General] raremage:
While it sucks, I think it's hard to argue with this stance unless people start to report widespread screen cracks. I've dropped mine a couple of times and no problems (~knock on wood~) and I have not read about a rampant issue with screen fragility, so at the moment it sounds like you were just damned unlucky.
[Venue Pro General] alabij:
My phone just fell at the train station and the freaking screen cracked. Damn. I called T-Mobile . .The rep at first didn't even know what it was and asked if it was a tablet. Put me on hold for over 10 mins then asked me to call Asurion and see what they said.

Asurion rep put me on hold for about 5 mins and then said it wasn't a supported phone.

I then called Dell Mobility. Lady told me $249 for a replacement. wow! I told her I'd think about it. Though it's half the cost I could get an HD7 straight from T-Mobile for less than $100 with contract renewal

Dell Venue Pro replacement glass / fix

I had a similar situation - wife dropped and our small son stepped on her Venue Pro, cracking the upper right corner of the gorilla glass. The phone still worked fine, even in the impacted area -- it just looked ugly and glass continue to chip off. Dell offered to replace it for $250.

I found the replacement glass from the below site, ordered it and it took about 2 months to arrive (they were out of stock initially).

mobilephonecrazy.com/modeldetail/Venue-Pro,LCD_Glass_Lens_Screen_.htm

I successfully swapped out the glass today and it was tedious being careful not to break anything and lose parts, but not too bad if you're patient - it took me about an hour. Remove the backing and battery and there are 6 black screws to remove (one was covered by a white sticker for me). I just used my finger nail to go around the edge of the lower housing (not LCD) until I was able to wiggle and eventually pop it free (be gentle, don't force it). Then extend the slider so the keyboard is exposed. Rotate 90 degrees from the lower housing you separated from, being careful not to damage the cables that attach the LCD to the lower housing. There are then 4 screws that secure the digitizer / glass to the LCD and slider housing. Two you can see internally once you rotate 90 degrees as above. The other two are always visible with the slider extended (keyboard visible) but they're under 2 black stickers at the top of the screen on the back. I just used a push pin under the edges to pop off the stickers. After removing these 4 screws, again I used my finger nail working my way around to pop off and remove the digitizer / glass from the LCD and slider housing. Once free, there is a single cable connection to remove the digitizer / glass from the LCD. Check the replacement glass as a guide for where these last 4 screws are and where the cable connects (top of the screen near the speaker). The cable just pops on / off.

Ensure you clean the underside of your new screen and the LCD is free of dust / debris / fingerprints before reassembling! Snap on the glass to the LCD / slider housing and install those 4 screws first, then rotate back 90 degrees to pop on the lower housing and then finally re-install those 6 screws. Mine fired right back up and works fine...I was a little nervous with potential damage to the exposed cables and separating the housings, but it turned out fine.
[Venue Pro General] JaimeE2011:
I just replaced mine last night. A bit heart stopping at times as there are a lot of fragile cables and little thingst that can fall out but if you have a good light, a small star-shaped screwdriver, and patience, you can do it. I bought the glass from an EBAY seller in china. Took less than 14 days to arrive and the cost was a lot cheaper than the UK seller you see in the posting (I paid like $74, with shipping). My DVP looks new now. I tooks some pictures as I was taking the thing appart and will try and post later.
[Venue Pro General] JaimeE2011:
I was able to create a very raw an amateourish video for youtube. Hopefully you can use this link to get to it //youtu.be/pnOnYZDZfrw I hope this helps somebody out there that needs to replace the glass on their DVP!
[Venue Pro General] little_daffodil:
Thanks for the advice, I'll check it out.

I've managed to get some serious scratches on my Gorilla Glass and I've no idea how I've done it as I am always incredibly careful with my phone.

How do you know it pops out easily? Did you see it somewhere? I'd like to see how easy it is to remove and replace before attempting it myself.

Thanks in anticipation,

[Venue Pro General] nylonthread:
now what....

I shattered the front glass on my DVP and bought a replacement on Ebay from a seller in Hong Kong. I watched a youtube video and managed to take the phone apart and replace the screen successfully. If you do this, be warned that there a few pieces that are not attached to the motherboard that will just fall out. Be sure to notice where they came from. For me, a little board running the on/off button and the camera lens fell out. It was easy to put them back in their place. HOWEVER........

Everything works now except I see the letters "ENU" up near the clock, and the virtual keyboard will not appear. Do you think this means the phone thinks the keyboard slider is out because of something I screwed with while the phone was apart?

I just installed the Mango 8107.79 update, and the keyboard still will not appear. So I know its not a bug. The EM app (you get after pressing qwertyuiop and doing the "man machine interface test") is telling me the slider is open when its not.

What does ENU mean? Just be careful if you replace your own screen!!
[Venue Pro General] khara:
ENU means that the next letter you type is going to be upper case.
[Venue Pro General] magicsquid:
Yes, I think you are probably correct.

Mine says 'ENG', so I would guess it represents the language. 'ENU' is probably English - United States. The code seems to appear when the physical keyboard is pulled out. (It doesn't seem to be visible when using just the on-screen keyboard).
[Venue Pro General] nylonthread:
thanks....

Thanks, that's what I needed to know. I guess I'll take it apart again and see if I can figure out why the keyboard is stuck in pulled-out-mode. I feel guilty now, because I just bought a Lumia 710 to replace my DVP, but the display is nowhere as beautiful. The Dell really is a great product....
[Venue Pro General] cdgoin:
Anyone have to replace JUST the glass portion..? Trying to find directions ANYWHERE.. All I can find is someone that was able (apparently a while ago) to find the replacement part complete not just the glass itself. I have JUST the glass.

I ASSUME it is like the HD7 where I have to use a heat gun.. but would be nice to know HOW.. its a bit more intricate than the HD7 screen replacement.
[Venue Pro General] cdgoin:
I was correct.. a industrial heat gun, or a really hot hair dryer is required..

OK follow directions here :

http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=GlHfrJrxz3g#!

Up till you have the glass portion off.. Have a rag to protect your hands. (SORRY NO PICTURES as my camera wasnt around.. and my DVP was occupied)

1) With gun on low or hair dryer on high.. Get the broken glass HOT to the touch.. (Try not to heat the frame too much) and it does not take long for the thing to get hot (especially with a heat gun) heating it slowly and with multiple passes is MUCH better than trying to get it hot all at once and melting something.

2) From the sides, one at a time gently pop the glass from the adhesive holding it to the frame, with the small flat blade screwdriver that comes with the kit. ( the sellers on ebay either send you the toll kit to take the phone apart with the screen, OR some sell it seperately. Its pretty cheap and worth the cost of getting.

3) Reheat top

4) Slowly pull glass away from the top, be careful not to damage the speaker

5) heat the bottom..

6) SLOWLY pull/pick the glass from the white adhesive.. YOU WANT TO LEAVE AS MUCH AHDESIVE AS POSSIBLE

Now the reassembly

7) Pull the protective cover off the back of the glass

8) There is a double sided tape sticker type thing with the glass. Pull the middle out of it.. Now pull the remaining thin ring of adhesive (With backing) off the card.

9) center the sticky side down on teh glass. top and bottom are not overly important. What is important is getting the adhesive on the SIDES of the glass..

10) cut a square of adhesive off the left over center.

11) You will see on the bottom a thin ribbon you will see where it goes through the frame.. apply adhesive on backside of frame. It will be to hold the ribbon at step 13

12) slide thin bottom ribbon through frame

13) Fold ribbon up and adhere it to the adhesive

14) align glass at botttom and sides and sit the glass in the bottom of the frame with the glass tilted up and away from the top of the frame

15) Slip upper ribbon in hole of frame

16) Sit glass down and press frame and glass together

17) GO back to video..

Hope that helps..

After it was all assembled and working I hit the glass with some heat to get the adhesive gooey one more time and pressed it all together.. so far it seems tight.
