I just restored... all went smoothly back with 3G
[Xoom Android Development] bwcorvus:
The best i can tell, and i'm hoping solaranz can figure it out (and correct), but if you wipe in CWM it makes your data partition read only. So the setup wizard can not store the files to know its complete. You will either need to nandroid restore or factory reset in android os and reflash the rom (make sure you reflash before loading the os again).
[Xoom Android Development] Turkawa:
So that thing works in every angle except the right angle then :)
[Xoom Android Development] lpasq:
I appreciate that you replied. Thanks

[Xoom Android Development] MidwestDrummer:
At first I was sure that I flashed the latest version of recovery from ROM Manager, but the more I think about it, I'm not so sure. I'll check this as soon as I get home from work.

Would this be true even though the Tiamat 1.4.4 kernal was included with this ROM?
[Xoom Android Development] okantomi:
If you haven't already updated CWR through Rom Manager DON'T DO IT!

Install the 3.2.0.0. from solarnz instead. The other one (from Rom Manager) will screw you up.

I feel like a broken record, lol...remember them?
[Xoom Android Development] MidwestDrummer:
Alright, I'll check when I get home. Where would I look to get 3.2.0.0. from solarnz? Also, if it turns out that I did update recovery via ROM Manager, do I have any recourse?

Thanks!
[Xoom Android Development] Turkawa:
CWM for xoom is here

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1074979

if you loaded 4.0.0.4 already and if you have rom manager you can scroll to the bottom and choose "All ClockworkMode Recoveries" and choose 3.0.2.5, then go to thread i linked and flash that..

Thats how far my knowledge goes :)

Hope it helps
[Xoom Android Development] okantomi:
That sounds good...I did things the hard way.
[Xoom Android Development] MidwestDrummer:
I'll take a look at my situation when I get home. Thanks a lot. I really appreciate the info.

i cant install apps :S when i try the xoom reboot itself and something more, where can i find the apk for calls and messages ?
[Xoom Android Development] davidsos:
Originally Posted by davidsos You should be able to overclock with this ROM, " Packed with Tiamat 1.4.4 stock GPU. Flash OC'd gpu version is you wish" is part of the ROM's description. That means that the kernel that comes with the ROM has the cpu overclockable to 1.7 Ghz but the gpu (graphics processor is not overclocked). If you're using the setCPU (application) to adjust it you may not have configured it properly. I believe that the first time you run it you are asked to make some sort of choice about the CPU which if I remember should be to let it figure out what to do. You can probably force close it and clear its data from manage applications in the settings panel and start over. Don't check the option for set on boot until you have found the frequency you picked to be a stable choice. One of the panels in setCPU has a stress test which you can run for a few minutes and stop by using the back soft key or tapping on the screen. If it's locked up go to the next lower frequency, after you reboot. I'd also make sure that it survives running quadrant.

If you want to overclock the gpu, you'll have to flash that kernel over this ROM. You should get what you have to work first, IMO.
​

Glad that I could help. I can see how many responses are short or vague enough to make one feel unsure of what to do and worry about bricking your toy. If you want to flash BRD's Tiamat 1.4.4 kernel with the GPU overclock, just read the instructions in both threads carefully. If you don't play fast moving games, overclocking the GPU may not even be noticeable. It will add a bit to the Quadrant benchmark, if you don't chase benchmarks, then you shouldn't be that concerned about GPU overclocking either. I flashed the GPU overclocked kernel on my Xoom and it works fine, no danger if done correctly.

For some reason the term ROM in the context of Android seems to mean the Android layer above the Linux Kernel (OS). Technically ROM means Read Only Memory which is not true of what Android is. If it was a true ROM (hardware) then you could never flash a new version.
[Xoom Android Development] kymikes:
OK, you are on to something here. I pulled the SD card from my DroidX and when I put it in the Xoom, I can see the files in /mnt/sdcard/external (also in /sdcard/external - must have more than 1 mount point) but when I format the other SD card in the DroidX and put it in the Xoom, I still don't see the file on the freshly formatted SD card. What is special about this formatting. When I put the working SD card in DX 1 1/2 years ago, I thought I set it as Mass Storage connection to PC and formatted from PC but that didn't work for the card I put in the Xoom. Have I completely forgotten a 'special' step to format an SC card. Please advise (as apparently my grey cells are dying fast). TIA.

Edit: RESOLVED. Found SD Card Formatter v.3.0.0.0 (by panasonic & ??? - check on Google) - reformatted the micro SD card and Boom - no more problems - still don't get what the 'magic' is but now I know how to solve it.
[Xoom Android Development] MidwestDrummer:
Sir, if you were here I would buy you a beer. This is exactly what resolved my issue. Thanks again for your assistance!
[Xoom Android Development] LNKNPRKFN:
one of the other things is when you remove the card from the xoom, and you put it or another card in you need to reboot the device, it doesnt recognize the card without a boot...hope this helps too
[Xoom Android Development] kymikes:
Thanks but I always power down the Xoom to swap SD cards - didn't think they were hot-swappable. There is clearly something more going on with formatting SD cards than I am aware of if there is a special piece of software to format them. It is curious that you can read the card when mounted for USB Mass Storage but Root Explorer won't 'read' it until you format with 'special software'. The formatter is PC software and I formatted in a multicard reader w/microSD slot. Then it worked fine. Live and learn.
[Xoom Android Development] KingDavid63:

[Xoom Android Development] flooppoolf:
Revolutionary !

This indeed is revolutionary,but is this just a boot.img with new features? Will this help us build CM7 or possibly CM8. Will we be able to port Roms over like the HTC Flyer rom for the desire hd to our xoom.Will all this be Possible now or will we have to wait 'till HC Source is released...

HC SOURCE will NOT be released thanks to those Cheap tablet companies in CHINA so Lets be like our #1 enemy and start suing EVERY cheap a5s company that makes cheap tablets.
[Xoom Android Development] flooppoolf:
Ohh and why cant we get the sdk on our tablets and then port stuff to it from that?
[Xoom Android Development] AppleBoy:
has anyone tried doing the whole disk encryption after installing Tiamat? Every time I start the process it goes to a weird looking android for about 10 seconds then reboots without encrypting it.
[Xoom Android Development] Elysian893:
So copying the brcm_guci_drv file to my sdcard and deleting it fixed the 50% cpu usage issue but naturally made the GPS no longer work, only have network type GPS... What file or process actually calls the GPS up in the Xoom's system? I'm really weary of SBF'ing, especially since I can't even get a Nandroid backup to restore...
[Xoom Android Development] khanh1289:
edit** nvm... answered my own question
[Xoom Android Development] solarnz:
OK. If you intend on updating busybox to a newer version that didn't come with the rom, please ensure that you flash this first.

It is simply an update to the ramdisk that will be included in the next update of the rom.
[Xoom Android Development] Turkawa:
i am like a kid waiting for Christmas!!!
[Xoom Android Development] solarnz:
Well, the fix has been released, but it will also be included in the next update
[Xoom Android Development] okantomi:
I did get stuck at the Dual core logo upon reboot and had to find my way back from the dreaded RSD3 mode.

I didn't see your fix in time.

This problem is still wreaking disaster as we speak. Can you or another developer consider posting a warning in the General section where more people will see it?
[Xoom Android Development] Elysian893:
Fixed my issue, flashed back to stock and then wiped and reloaded the rom. No more issues!

Has anyone got openvpn to work with the cynogen script?

I loaded up my credentials, but when i attempt to add the VPN network, OpenVPN is not an option. Am i missing something?
[Xoom Android Development] zehkaiser:
I'm having trouble with my screen not wanting to wake up. I'll hit my power button and it'll take 2+ seconds for the screen to turn on. Also, my tablet is having trouble keeping my USB keyboard connected. I've had to wipe and redo my install already.
[Xoom Android Development] rschenck:
I believe the fact that it takes the screen a couple seconds to wake up is a good thing, actually. It means the power management is working well and the device is going into a proper deep sleep when the screen is off.

Once you get over that initial "crap, its busted!" reaction when the screen takes a beat to come up, you should be ok.
[Xoom Android Development] Kippui:
what about those of us who are still on 3.1 stock who have the latest busy box?

I installed the latest busybox from the market following some instructions on these forums. It froze once and I ended up with RSD 3 but it somehow reboot by smashing as much button combinations as i can. its working fine but I still dont want any future troubles
[Xoom Android Development] Alxoom33:
/external vs. /download??

S:)orry, see post below
[Xoom Android Development] Alxoom33:
:eek::eek:I flashed the update, thanks. One issue that I recently noticed in flashing the 1.7 OC kernal and the two updates is that I can't access the /external file from recovery with CWM. I get to see the file and

then get pushed back to the previous page. I can, however, access /download and flash the .zip update from there. I don't understand...why even bother to copy and paste downloads to /external. Am I missing something?:eek:
[Xoom Android Development] cam30era:
What version of CWM are you running? If you are running 4.0.0.X, downloaded from ROM manager, then that's your problem. If so, in ROM manager install an older version of CWM (3.0.2.5) then go to solarnz's thread, pinned to the top of the development section, and install CWM 3.2.2.
[Xoom Android Development] Chelseablue:
I just realized more of the extent of win provided by this rom. Before flashing this I couldn't look in the direction of 1.7ghz oc, but now I can actually run it long enough to run a Linpack and Quadrant before I get rebooted. That rocks my socks off.
[Xoom Android Development] Elysian893:
Try bumping up your minimum speed 1 tick, that should help a lot.
[Xoom Android Development] le_pere_noel:
hello, thks for the work no problem installing this rom on my xoom eu but is there any possibilities to install any other languages like french :p ?
[Xoom Android Development] Alxoom33:
I was using 3.0.2.5. I just installed 3.2 as you suggested and ran a new backup. Thanks CAM30ERA!

But, after posting last night I ran into another issue. After flashing update 3, I noticed that my charging light was no longer working, so I flashed update 2 to get back the charging light. Well, that locked me in a bootloop, the last nandroid backup didn't work, but miraculously at around 3:40AM I was able to reflash 1.0, update 2 and the Full throttle OC kernal, and lo and behold I'm back. Strangely with all of my apps and data. Don't know what the issue is, but beware of update 3, especially if you want your charge light back. I personally am waiting for the new ROM update that Solrnez mentioned.
[Xoom Android Development] legion21:
i'm stuck at the honeycomb thing while booting.. is there a way to factory reset from there?
[Xoom Android Development] mr_wrong_0:
Mine did that for what seemed like forever. Give it time even up to like 15 minutes no lie.

If it is still loading after that you can boot into recovery and wipe or reflash or whatever you need to do.

To boot into recovery hold vol up + power and once it shows the big M logo press vol down once followed by vol up once and it should load you into CWM.
[Xoom Android Development] legion21:
i coulda sworn i left it there for like 20 minutes but im going to try to reflash the rom and see what happens.
[Xoom Android Development] legion21:
been going for 25 minutes at the honeycomb logo... guess ill just keep waiting?
[Xoom Android Development] dhemke17:
That's too long....it should ony tame at s Max ten minutes...if you have adb set up, pkug your xoom into your computer and ru. The command ddms and see what its say I g...if its giving you a repeating error, or its not changing you are stuck. In a bootloop...
[Xoom Android Development] rschenck:
Look for a stutter....if the animation is running smoothly, the black frame every 30 seconds or so, then 10 or 15 minutes for the boot is possible, especially on a first boot.

If the animation looks jagged, as if the honeycombs are stopping mid frame, and the black frame is appearing every few seconds, then you are bootlooping. In time, you learn to get a feeling for it.
[Xoom Android Development] misc77:
Hi I got stuck at the welcome screen. It keeps telling me to activate but I am on Singapore network. Do I just apply the 3g patch fix?

Thanks.
[Xoom Android Development] RinTinTigger:
can anyone assist?

i want back from tiamat to stock rom 3.1 VZW 3G

how do i do?
[Xoom Android Development] rschenck:
I would say that you should just download your stock rom from Motorola, and flash it via fastboot.

Follow these instructions from Steady Hawkins, all around good egg.

Ad block not working.

Great work with the ROM BRD...

Has anyone noticed that the ad block script, which overwrites the host file, is not able to block any ads. These ads in the browser seems to slow down the scrolling due to these annoying ads in flash.

This used to work earlier. I used Xoom Overclock advanced setting to block ads.

Any one able to get this working?
[Xoom Android Development] legion21:
It seemed smooth but i just gave up, ive installed the rom twice now and the same thing has happened both tines so i just gave up and installed the kernel instead, which is working fine. Can't get it to run at 1.7 though, seems to max out at 1.6 :-(

Also are there any major differences between this rom and the xoom zone rom?
[Xoom Android Development] driftr:
So I thought I'd throw in some problems I had with this ROM. I installed it all fine, no issue. Went to the market and installed a new app and it worked fine. Over the weekend some updates to existing apps were available. After installing them my Xoom bootlooped and wouldn't boot. I saw one mention the BigX theme might have some issues, I don't know if that had anything to do with it, but I couldn't get out of the loop.

I even tried to restore a nandroid I made before flashing the ROM but it still bootlooped. I tried re-flashing the ROM but still nothing. I know it's said to NOT wipe from CWM but I had nothing else to try so I tried that too but same old bootloop. This is a bootloop setting for at least 15 min so it's not like I didn't wait.

In the end I had to fastboot the HRI66 or whatever from motodev, root it, upgraded to 3.1 and the kernal, made a backup, restored my previous nandroid backup, and I was back in business.

So for now I'm not running Tiamat Rom 1.0. I see there's a third "fix" for busybox but I doubt that would've prevented the first glitch. Any thoughts on why upgrading apps would have totally screwed it over?
[Xoom Android Development] bwcorvus:
You most likely updated the super user app...the binaries are causing issues.

[Xoom Android Development] deathshead:
Hi, Anyone know if there is a version of this rom with GPU overclock and STOCK battery?
[Xoom Android Development] rschenck:
In the OP it says that you can flash one of Tiamat's kernels with GPU overclocking after flashing the complete ROM if you need GPU overclocking.
[Xoom Android Development] rschenck:
OK, NOW things are going to get interesting....

Now that HC 3.2 seems to be a fair accompli and due to arrive for "the Xoom and other existing tablets in the next few weeks" (SOURCE), some questions arise.

First, if you have the Tiamat ROM installed will you still get the OTA update to 3.2? Would we need to revert to stock to get it?

Next, if you do get the 3.2 update OTA, will it overwrite the ROM and kernel but not wipe data?

Lastly, whether we get the 3.2 update or no, will Team Tiamat be producing the next gen of the ROM based on 3.2?
[Xoom Android Development] shmigao:
Pretty sure no OTA updates coming through to unlocked rooted devices

Going back to stock might bring OTA to you... but... why the hassle?

Pretty sure Tiamat team will bring out a 3.2 based version

:)

hopefully for euro xoom too...
[Xoom Android Development] rschenck:
I heard that rooted US devices did get the OTA update to 3.1, so I was curious...

and yes, I agree that just waiting for Team Tiamat to release their own version of 3.2 WINNING will make the most sense.
[Xoom Android Development] vdub804:
Loving the rom but after flashing it some apps are missing from the market like amazon besbuy etc.
[Xoom Android Development] cam30era:
It's fixed, but.... You have to flash "update 3" from BRD's second post, after the OP.
[Xoom Android Development] davidsos:
If one had the charging light on, after "update 3" it's off again. I think the best solution is lights off when the tablet is awake and lights on when the tablet is asleep and the charger is plugged in. That way we might not need two different flashes all the time.
[Xoom Android Development] solarnz:
The busybox issue was fixed, not the superuser issue.
[Xoom Android Development] solarnz:
Actually that's even harder to implement.

The next version will give you much greater control over this.

Expect this rom to be out in a week - week and a half.
[Xoom Android Development] rschenck:
Excellent! Any word on the upgrade procedure? Just flash the new version over v1.0?
[Xoom Android Development] okantomi:
I can tell you that rooted US Xooms did not get the OTA update. At least mine didn't. No worries, weez gotz developerz!
[Xoom Android Development] cam30era:
Oops! My bad.
[Xoom Android Development] bwcorvus:
Rooted Xooms got the update just fine, but it would fail the install.
[Xoom Android Development] okantomi:
Umm, I guess I followed the advice in this thread about the superuser issue, and allowed the upgrade.

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=14874972&postcount=18

--Cue the hand-wringing--What should I do? I know that the app is just the installer and it's the binaries that are/were the problem. Will uninstalling the last update potentially help solve the problem? Should I just flash my latest recovery (with earlier SU app version)? Since the only people that are even talking about this may have the wrong info (the post above) what should be done?--end hand-wringing--;^)
[Xoom Android Development] Alxoom33:
Can confirm rooted US Xoom's got the OTA update. I did not allow it to flash and waited for Tiamat's version. Otherwise I would have been afraid to brick or break root. If 3.2 is:rolleyes: pushed out I would wait for a rooted version.
[Xoom Android Development] cam30era:
I did not get the update on my rooted, US wifi only Xoom. Possibly because I was running BRDs 3.1 before the ota hit?

is it advised to install this instad of :

[KERNEL][AOSP]Tiamat Xoom 1.4.4 "Full Throttle Baby! 1.7Ghz" [Update: 6/2]

My device is: Xoom EUR 3g/wifi with HC3.1
[Xoom Android Development] culac:
I managed to install this rom eventually, but something weird is going on. My home wifi isn't showing up even though other devices can see it. My xoom definitely could see it before when it was on stock 3.1, but now only picks up other wifi connections (I had to tether to my phone to download apps). Anyone have any idea what could be going on? :confused:
[Xoom Android Development] mr_wrong_0:
That is really odd man. I've never hear of that, but you could try using clockwork to flash the stock wpa_supplicant file then if you want ad-hoc networks back you can flash the modified version after that.

Is there a way to make the volume buttons control media volume instead of phone volume? From home screen its mapped to the phone audio levels but in app its the media volume..
[Xoom Android Development] culac:
Thanks for your reply. I got it working this morning. I remembered I'd changed my wifi channel to 13 recently so I changed it to a lower channel and it detected it. Still odd that the new rom didn't like channel 13.

help

BRD folks, please help this aging noob. After enjoying the BRD kernel for several weeks, I decided to flash this ROM, which was great. Then i did the update to fix the light, and got stuck in "Dual Core" boot screen. Try as I might, I can't get out. I've followed the instructions in all the threads about un-bricking, etc. Done fastboot reboot, etc., re-flashed the .img file. I can, after playing with multiple vol./power button pushing, get into CWM recovery, and that is exciting. But the Xoom won't read my SD card, which has back-ups and .zips. I checked the SD card in my computer, and the files still there. Anyone able to offer some guidance? How make the machine read the SD again? Thanks, Ted
[Xoom Android Development] spiff72:
Ugh - can't get this ROM to work right (Market issues)

Hey all...

I have tried this ROM several times now, but still can't get the market to function properly. Usually, just switching to the My Apps section will reboot the Xoom. (Oddly - a very fast reboot - much quicker than when you did an intentional reboot. I would guess about 5 pulses of the honeycomb animation before the lock screen comes back).

Anyway - I am about to give up on it and go back to the original BRD 3.1 ROM, unless someone here can talk me down from the ledge!

I tried the wipe within android settings. I tried wiping in CWM. I tried both the Tiamat kernels.

So if I can't get this one working - I want two features of this ROM in the original 3.1:

- Charging light functionality

- The circle battery

Can the charging light fix in the original post be used on the BRDizzled ROM?

Thanks in advance...

Jeff
