I haven't had any trouble so far, other than time stamp issues on texts.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xCHPx:
okay, I have a few questions as well, what are the significant changes between froyosense and gingersense besides the obvious addition of gingerbread features? Battery life? I hear radio signal is better? Are there any things that are broken?
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cstrife999:
Thanks for all who replied. Using Gingeritis and very happy with it to this point. Had one random reboot when I first went through setup and one random network disconnect, but since then it's been perfect.

I'm running the 2.0.4-01 with the 2.5.4 test 4 kernel from imoseyon. I'm trying to use it for my daily driver. So far, so good. Remember BACKUP,BACKUP,BACKUP,BACKUP, and BACKUP. YMMV.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] newell23:
problem loading BAMF 2.0-4.01.... I get stuck on the HTC quietly brilliant screen, i flashed the radio that I downloaded the GB radio on the radio page and then i go to flash, the ROM it gets stuck on the load screen... help
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] turpintb:
I'm running das BAMF 2.0.4-01 with Iso's 2.5.4 test 2 kernel for my daily driver. No issues thus far.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] flexor224:
I'm running Gingeritis v1.0 Beta VIII with New Sense 3.0 Aspects. It's a daily driver. Runs great! Love the sense3.0 features it brings to the phone. Really easy to perform the radio flash and rom flash. Highly recommended!
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theryanguy:
I've been running Liquid GingerSense since last night, and even though it hasn't even been 24 hours, I haven't seen one issue yet. Awesome.ROM.

Sent from my super duper deluxe rooted re-romed Thunderbolt. ( and yes, it can also wash my car AND do the dishes)
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dstu03:
It is a great rom but I still do not think its a daily driver. It doesn't have very many issues except for the battery life and the over all lag still in the rom. In my personal opinion the froyo roms out there are still far superior than any gb rom I have seen. I guess some people just want to say they have gb on their phone
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sabindaman:
Is it from the radio or improper flashing?
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dstu03:
Its n another thread its the radio
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] elmuchodroido:
Das BAMF 2.05 is great, but I have to agree with the ppl above me. This bootloop/brick scare got me putting 1.63 back on the phone. So be careful.. or wait til team BAMF figures out how to fix the paperweight-making radio..

[Optimus One, P500, V General] DJBhardwaj:
CM7 by mikOS
[Optimus One, P500, V General] bgdxv:
Nessy Hypnos 2 is an excellent rom, very snappy and with great performance and battery life ;)
[Optimus One, P500, V General] DJBhardwaj:

[Optimus One, P500, V General] Anands3:
openOptimus-build-1.148 is the best ROM out there :):)
[Optimus One, P500, V General] gkalen:
The stablest with all features working great i think that is lol 1.4.2 rom.......and if you flash dookmatt s kernel then you will have great performance..........

I said this because open optimus cannot play divx videos....otherwise if you dont want to watch. .avi or high quality divx then flash whatever you want......

I prefer all features of our phones works correctly and LOL does this

[Optimus One, P500, V General] sholimar:
Try dook's Hypnos if you use mobile data (2.2.2 provides better battery life with mobile data on for some reason)... even without overclock, it performs wonderfully!

If you don't, try franco's devoid+kernel.

i cant find the Databases "pushed all databases from /data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databases/ from my backup to the new one"
[Xoom Android Development] jim_panse:
I can't make a nandroid backup cause I have no external sd. Is there a way to do it with adb?
[Xoom Android Development] lowtraxx:
Hi, I updated the guide, because I used the wrong img file name in the text. The databases are in the data.img If you have no sdcard I think it should be possible to pull the files from your device before flashing. But I don't have the names of the database files here. I am on the move at the moment. Once I get home, I will update the guide with all necessary file names and thread links.
[Xoom Android Development] spline1:
oh :-( i cant unyaffsen :-(

From the US 3.1 instructions do we do steps 2-7 including step 4 (for Verizon 3G users) ???

Thanks
[Xoom Android Development] alias_neo:
You're just asking for trouble with this, I know the kind of impatient people that will boot loop their devices wth this and come back complaining its bricked.

Simple theory though, flash US images, restorevthe databases and then fix your build prop to get your 3g radio and market location back.

Macbots drool as I XOOM through the Galaxy to my hearts Desire.
[Xoom Android Development] lowtraxx:
alias_Neo - That's what disclaimers are for. And here we have some good guides here for unbricking. I did this not because I am impatient. I did this because I wanted the books app and the tablet tab in the market, which we will not get with the euro 3.1 release.

Tyrannos - yes I get hsdpa reception, but @ home my network only does edge.

Andypotts - yes, you follow them to the letter and end up with a 3.1 us XOOM with no 3G then you follow the steps from there and push back the prop and DB files and there you are.
[Xoom Android Development] alias_neo:
Naw, disclaimers are inconsequential, im talking about stressed people with messed up xooms, not trouble for you. Its a pretty clean cut guide. As for the tab, we may get the tablet tab, we have to some day, as for books.. I can do without cause I use other things.

I just don't want people to make a mess of things cause they're getting impatient about the 3.1 update.

Macbots drool as I XOOM through the Galaxy to my hearts Desire.
[Xoom Android Development] B3rlin3r:
Hi and thanks for the infos!

On my device the SHM and WAL file are:

settings.db-shm

settings.db-wal

"-" not "."

First I've backuped my 3.1(german t-mobile mz601) without 3g working wit CW, then used the guide "from 3.1 to 3.0.1". Then I had to unlock and root it once again and was able tu pull the 4 files. Then I've used CW to restore my former 3.1 system and continued with the steps. If anybody wants to have the 4 files(settings.db-shm,settings.db,settings.db-wal,settings.db-shm,build.prop), pm me.

greetings from Berlin
[Xoom Android Development] alias_neo:
I wouldn't recommend handing out your DB files without checking what's in them first. Im not at a computer to check myself.

Macbots drool as I XOOM through the Galaxy to my hearts Desire.
[Xoom Android Development] B3rlin3r:
Thanks for your advice,

but the only "personal data" I entered in the "restocked" XOOM, before I pulled the DB-files was the PIN for my SIM Card...
[Xoom Android Development] alias_neo:
Cool, better safe than sorry. Applies to everyone else that may want to pull the files too.

[Xoom Android Development] lowtraxx:

Sorry, the XOOM seems to have replaced the - with a . I will update the Guide accordingly
[Xoom Android Development] Marshall1975:
Hello

Can anyone supply me with a copy of the system and data img as I have 3.1 already installed on mine.

Thanks
[Xoom Android Development] Marshall1975:
Hello

Ignore the last post as another member kindly supplied me with the needed files. Have pushed all the files to my xoom then rebooted but no 3g still. Thinking im missing something here.
[Xoom Android Development] mynameisjon:
its just a graphic glitch because the xoom is trying the match the signal with CDMA.

wouldn't be too bothered by it.
[Xoom Android Development] kohz87:
so despite the 3G indication, it's actually running on HSDPA?

and do you feel any significant slowness in the 3G network?
[Xoom Android Development] mcfisch:
I've now running the Tiamat 1.4.4 as well - but at the end of the first day after upgrading the 3G-signal has been gone. So sorry, but for me it isn't solved yet. :(
[Xoom Android Development] Marshall1975:
Lowtraxx

Yeah im the same as mcfish. Lost it once in a week and now 3 times in one day. Not a massive issue just a little annoying having to reboot all the time.
[Xoom Android Development] bigrushdog:
Ill be watching this thread for progress. My goal is to add a "Regional Service Compatibility " section to my OP. So that very simply, one can grab the rom then grab appropriate zip for their service provider. Its rough having 50 different models of the same device. :eek:
[Xoom Android Development] shmigao:
wow, BRD that sounds awesome! I have been holding back going to the Tiamat ROM so far, as 3G connectivity and all is crucial for my work (constantly on the go).

50! :eek:

any support (like images, or beta testing, or what not, let me know). cheers
[Xoom Android Development] shmigao:
Yes. at least it appears to be (checking the widget reading)

No. it doesn't seem slower

it's most likely just a wrong reading, because it's simply stuck at one value (2 bars)
[Xoom Android Development] kohz87:
thanks for the notes, I'm taking my mobile network rather seriously since I work on the go, I guess I can stick on this 3.1 now :)
[Xoom Android Development] cbern:

hi

hello 3.1 moto users..

like most of you im a euro (UK) xoom owner and want 3.1...

just realized that the euro xoom is not a Google Experiance Device (GED)..

so my question is to all who converted to 3.1 - do you all now have a proper GED Xoom now with none of the motorola content ( ie quick office - and some moto-blur apps in the settings - applications listing )

im so angry that motorola capitalised on US marketing and sold us Euro lot a different device, im not gonna stress about it if i know this rom brings me the US Xoom in an instant !"!

also and this is important - is the 3g blackout happening while wifi is turned on or just as wifi is turned off, i only ask because my stock xoom does this anyway and needs rebooting, but only after using wifi for a time....

thanx.

.

.
[Xoom Android Development] mcfisch:
For me it happens whenever 3G becomes deactivated - doesn't matter if WiFi gets connected (replaces 3G-connection) or 3G-signal gets lost. But sometimes it seems it just happens without any relationship to connectivity.
[Xoom Android Development] terminal 7:
conclusion

Okay - I finally took the plunge and got my uk Xoom running 3.1_

Signal meter is faulty yes but HSDPA is fine and running at same strength as it was while running the stock uk 3.0 rom.

Download an app called "ELIXIR" from the market and you will see it states HSDPA and gives a signal meter, now my other finding is that the XOOM even with stock rom has a bug affecting signal meter apps, I tried ELIXIR And other signal widgets on the Xoom prior to flashing the US rom and found it only shows half the signal strength that the xooms own signal meter in the taskbar does- only difference is the US 3.1 rom has this 1/2 effect visible on the taskbar indicator too..

So I can honestly say after testing in many locations that ELIXIR and other apps report same signal strength on the 3.1 US rom as on the stock UK rom. I tried 4 location that i know well and the results were identical.

Its just a feature of our uk networks that signal meter needs different calibration to view correct status, its a bit like a speedometer reading "60" when in fact you might expect it to read "100" if you use kilometers instead of miles, but the speed is the same ..

I'm overjoyed by how well my Xoom works with this US 3.1 GED Rom - its unleashed the Xoom and given me the device I paid for, oh yeah and I can turn wifi on and off without then loosing my 3g connection which was happening every single time on the stock rom.

i have not yet had any outage at all - when in standby and i power on the taskbar says no internet connection but this is not the case, its connected just fine, i know this because it receives emails and flashes a received notification while showing "no internet" so again its just a slight visual bug .

MOTOROLA really need to get the euro model sorted soon - this makes the Xoom a killer device :)

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Apps to try - NETWORK INFO WIDGET - by Tony Smith ( free - but paid version is well worth it too )

- ELIXIR - by Tamas Barta - brilliant tool on any android.

- PHONO - by InfonetService - display network info and a widget -( but turn off notifications on honeycomb )

Amazing work, thank you ....
[Xoom Android Development] sharptv:
how do you guys flash the files without flashing the recovery? any help please!!!
[Xoom Android Development] MattCB72:
You need an already rooted Xoom with installed Clockworkmod Recovery. But don't use CWM-Recovery 4.x, because it doesn't recognize the SD-Card! I use CWM 3.2.0.0 (flashed with fastboot)
[Xoom Android Development] misc77:
Hi,

I don't have "settings.db-wal" and "telephony.db-journal" in my data.img when I tried to adb pull it. Can somebody help?

Also, I unpacked it using winrar on Windows instead of unyaffs, will that be fine?

Lastly, I am using "MZ601_H.6.1-38-9_Other_International_Retail", assuming the only difference between the Euro and International versions is the providers settings. Else both stock ROM has 3G+Wifi capability and using same frequency.

Your help would be appreciated.

Thanks.
[Xoom Android Development] Tim24:
Two of these five setting- and telephony-files were empty (size 0 bytes) on my Euro 3g Zoom when I tried to backup them with adb pull.

I pushed two empty files named "settings.db-wal" and "telephony.db-journal" to the upgraded Xoom, 3G still works with Android 3.1.
[Xoom Android Development] misc77:
Thanks for the reply.

Will using winrar to unpack matters? Thanks, I saw my only 0 byte file is "telephony.db-journal". Found the rest.
[Xoom Android Development] MattCB72:
The "telephony.db-journal" has 0 bytes, that's ok.

Hello All,

Could someone help me please with a silly question.

How do I do Step 3. Frankenrom build.prop

There are two ways to get a working build.prop

a. Download the build prop from http://toshsoft.de/xda/build.prop.frankenrom and copy it to your device

Do i just copy the written stuff on a note pad n put it on my xoom or how do I do it??

Many thanks in advance.
[Xoom Android Development] MattCB72:
If you have downloaded the build.prop.frankenrom, you push this to your Xoom. You don't need to rename it. Just push it with adb to the Xoom:

adb push build.prop.frankrom /system/build.prop

This copies the build.prop.frankenrom to your Xoom (in the directory /system) and renames it to build.prop. You may rename the build.prop.frankenrom to build.prop an push ist with

adb push build.prop /system/
[Xoom Android Development] terminal 7:

you ask me this in a private message but you have your account set so i cant reply, change your settings so people can send you private messages and ill gladly reply !!!

good news? lol
[Xoom Android Development] kohz87:
very good news, but does that mean I need to flash back to stock and update, losing the tiamat rom?
[Xoom Android Development] qwerp_:
i still prefer the US rom, as it give more access to stuffs.

i hope the OP can integrate whatever that is missing at the moment from the EURO (non US) 3.1 to the current version.
[Xoom Android Development] shmigao:
One global version with a device and network specific variations would be great. Much like Cyanogenmod ROM working cross platform
[Xoom Android Development] qwerp_:
the problem with that is, Xoom its not a single specfic model.

the 3G model in US is not the same as the 3G in the europe.

will work for the Wifi model.
[Xoom Android Development] shmigao:
That's what I said...

CM works across many different devices
[Xoom Android Development] mynameisjon:
Do you know how big the CM team is, not to mention the fact that the team only ports to devices that they own.

If the dev doesn't have access to a Euro Xoom, its pretty out there to expect support for it...

Donate one to bigrushdog and i'm sure he'll cook something up lol
[Xoom Android Development] lowtraxx:
Yeah,

I hope once system images for the 3.1 release are available I will be able to cook a hybrid of the US and euro versions by using the build.prop, the ril-specific stuff and boot.img from the euro version. Stay tuned once the images become available.
[Xoom Android Development] qwerp_:
love your work... thumbs up. waiting patiently..
[Xoom Android Development] shmigao:
hehe, I knew that this response was coming ;-)

I know that this is huge work and that the CM team is huge... I just said this because some make it sound as if it would be impossible to make a ROM that can work across devices and networks.

I am also not suggesting that I demand it now

I will gladly donate to BRD and Lowtraxx :-)
[Xoom Android Development] mynameisjon:
has anyone ever mentioned that you're awesome?
[Xoom Android Development] mmsson:
Taken the Plunge

Tired of waiting, so went to the US rom yesterday. With these instructions it was kind of painless and trouble free. Will use the device in anger today and see where it ends up. Even before going to Tiamat, the device feels faster/more responsive generally (than the previous 3.0.1 eur rom). Youtube does well too.

First: OP - THANKYOU. Bigtime. Great instructions, and keeping up with the updates etc etc. Awesome.

All the way along I've been very very keen to get movies working on it. However, neither 720p or 1080p movies play on it at anything more than 3-8 fps (unwatchable). I know its probably a lack of apps made for it, or vdpau support in the kernel... if anyone has breakthroughs on this please provide infos!
[Xoom Android Development] niwa2:
Videos work fine as long as they are encoded in baseline profile with aac audio. Most of the stuff nowdays is encoded in high profile with ac3 audio and that is not supported by the tegra 2 chipset.

Motorola claims 20-30mbit/s videos are running fine.

I have encoded a couple files to baseline h264 mp4 with aac audio and they are running fine.
[Xoom Android Development] cheetah2k:
Anyone try this on an Australian Optus Xoom?
[Xoom Android Development] lowtraxx:
Hi,

theoretically it should work on all XOOMs, as you are copying the settings from the original one. As of now I have not found a Non-US XOOM where this does not work. But you SHOULD always make a Nandroid backup before following the procedure, so you can test if it works for you. If it does not or you do not like the result, you can always Nandroid back.

HTH
[Xoom Android Development] Trig0r:
Just done this to mine, slightly different results to the screeny on the first post..

Android: 3.1

Baseband Version: N_01.83.19P

Kernal Version: 2.6.36.3-gc2bee64, android-build@apa28 #1

Build Number: HMJ37

Anything to worry about?
[Xoom Android Development] qwerp_:
i wouldn't worry so much if you are able to get to the screen and see whats on it.

if you have problem, you probably have problem even booting into it.

just check if your 3G works, as that is the only difference compare to the US 3g XOOM.
[Xoom Android Development] Trig0r:
Will check 3g, no Sdcard tho as far as I can see, have got it in CWM but not in ES Filemanager, I have an external fodler bit its empty and I cant write to it..
[Xoom Android Development] Trig0r:
If I drop a custom ROM on this (Tiamat one) then do I have to do step 4 from the OP again to push over my files from before the US flash bit?
[Xoom Android Development] ed.dark:
Yes you do
[Xoom Android Development] Trig0r:
Thought as much, maybe explain why I'm getting no 3g and no SDcard, find out in an hour when I get home, brought Xoom into work with the cable and SDCard but left all my other files at home lol..
[Xoom Android Development] Trig0r:
Files pushed back over, device can see mobile networks but not the one I use so guessing there's no apn details for giffgaff, will check on there support site and try again later..

Still no sign of my sdcard tho.

Wow with acer iconia or asus transformer root was pain free but here man wtf. On others you just root with nodded gingerbreak then flash cwm with app from market then zips away but here all this just for root. No euro image sucks seriously and us image can brick your ****.

So I use this method to root, follow other thread to flash cwm and I am ok to flash any update zips? Do I need to unlock bootloader as a starting point?

I have got asus water live wallpaper working and asus clock widget so my home screen rocks lol

Using this thread and picking up the Tron#4 tiamat kernel and then pushing the files back from step 4 my Xoom seems to work except the SDCard..
