Two quotes from bwcorvus:

" We have found if you wipe in cwm you won't be able to install apps to the data partition."

"Yea, its a bug they are working on. It was not something that was planned. The partitions on the xoom are different then other devices."
[Xoom Android Development] spiff72:
I just did a nandroid restore back to my previous 3.1.

So would you recommend the following:

go to android setting and do the factory wipe, then when it reboots and does the wipe, catch the second reboot and go into recovery, flash the Tiamat ROM, and then flash the charging light fix?

Or is it better to allow the wipe reboot to fully complete and then shut down - reboot into recovery and follow the steps above?

Thanks for your help.

Keep in mind much smarter folks than myself here lol.

I've been posting in the XoomZone thread as many users hit stumbling blocks (including myself) trying to install these ROMs. I flashed many times testing different variations during the install process. I've successfully flashed this ROM and XoomZone many times.

Here is a post I made about my protocol, there seems to be a very specific process to getting these to install properly.

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=14973893&postcount=132

I've no issues with anything, everything works fantastic. All apps load, nothing FCs, everything works smooth as butter.

Here is what I posted:

Let me know if that works for you. Tried it many times with success.

I think you must have updated Clockwork Mod Recovery to version 4.x through ROM Manager and now it doesn't see the external sdcard when you try to flash from it. You have to reinstall agood recovery. In ROM Manager scroll down until you find anearlier version(2.0.2.5)and then flash the newest solarnz version(3.2.xx)from his thread.
[Xoom Android Development] Dokted:
sounds like a plan, although I of course can't use ROM manager, as can't get past boot screen. Will check which CWM I have loaded when I get home. Thanks
[Xoom Android Development] MystaWright:
Yes, I have the same issue with Swype Installer and quite a few other apps doing this.
[Xoom Android Development] Sic123:
just download the img file from solarnz recovery and flash it using fastboot to get into fastboot hold power+vol up till it reboots the press vol down and it will start fastboot mode
[Xoom Android Development] Bazar617:
Hey guys, try flashing the below link. Its just the Tiamat framework, but with the UAstring changed back to mobile. The Swype installer pulls the UA to make sure you're on a mobile comp, which is why youre having problems on the stock Rom (because its changed from mobile to Mac OSX).

Flash this, install swype, then reflash the Rom without wiping, and you'll have swype.

I am getting below average battery life with this Rom I flashed this week and I am having to put my Xoom on the charger every night now. Can someone send me a link to flash back to stock wifi. I have done some google'in and just cant seem to find the right steps images roms etc.. Thanks in advance.

hello all just got my xoom and have it rooted and am trying to install this rom. I did a wipe from android settings flashed the rom from recovery. However I am in a boot loop witch means i have to do a wipe but i cant get into honeycomb to do a wipe so how do i wipe it?
[Xoom Android Development] spiff72:
Do you by chance have a nandroid backup you can revert to?
[Xoom Android Development] misc77:
Works brilliantly

Am not sure why the low ratings for this ROM? 3.9/5??

I have been using it for a week and battery life is great, 3G did not break and all happy! :D

The only thing is that the tablet now cannot be encrypted. A big minus and that means I cannot lose my gadget else my data will be revealed!

Can any fix the encryption thing?

Thank you.

US Wifi only problems and solutions guide

I have a US Wifi Only (3.1 already installed). I installed ROM manager, and it automatically updated the ClockworkMod to 4.0 which fails to recognize the MicroSD card, nor could I mount USB.

I re-installed the 3.2 version (see this guide, step 2).

Then I was able to install the zip file after mounting the sdcard in ClockworkMod.

It kept booting (bootloop), so I went into recovery mode again and choose "wipe data/factory reset" (was very quick), then I re-installed the ROM again.

It booted, but kept rebooting when I go to the market. So, I decided to do a factory reset (in Honeycomb, go to Settings -> Privacy -> Factory reset).

Now it works like charm! I can install stuff from the market, etc.
[Xoom Android Development] patass:
since when is 3.9 out of 5 bad?
[Xoom Android Development] davidsos:
I believe 'fastboot erase userdata' is pretty much the same as wipe/factory reset. Google it.

Ok guys fill me in... What am I looking at besides a Xoom running Xoom Zone rom?
[Xoom Android Development] bwcorvus:
Xoom zone is this rom with a theme. Read his OP and he will tell you that.

If you are asking about the screenshot, it has external data in it. Something the Xoom has never had before.
[Xoom Android Development] Steady Hawkin:
Take a close look at what BRD has done with storage;)
[Xoom Android Development] keunhuvac:
This is leaked from BRD's new ROM?
[Xoom Android Development] Steady Hawkin:
Yup, just a small taste of what he's got in store for us:D
[Xoom Android Development] rlasalle15:
Does he have a site or anything like that to get into the beta game?
[Xoom Android Development] le_pere_noel:
that's sound great will it be possible in the next version to have a xoom only version ? without the phone setting and so on :)

Thks for the work again

[Xoom Android Development] bigrushdog:
Where u think I smalikanged from lol!

I've been quiet and in hiding working on something epic. Tiamat Xoom Rom v1.1 beta has been released for testing. I have spent probably about 100 hours getting the rom to where it is now. It is the fastest, baddest, sickest thing the xoom has ever seen. This is truly how the xoom should have been released.

Just some highlights.

MountService now has full control of the Xoom storage system, as it should be. that means that Android mounts the MicroSD, and gives you the opportunity to control the MicroSD in a variety of ways. You can now unmount the MicroSD from the status bar or from Storage settings. You can safely remove the MicroSD and put in another one ( some call that HotSwap :D ) Also, you can manage any USB host connections ( like a thumb drive with OTG cable ) from the status bar and Storage settings. In the status bar, you can also launch a native file explorer and browse all mounted storage on the device. Android will now recognize media on both MicroSD and Internal storage. That means music and Gallery media will be seen on both storage points.

Mass Storage is a WIP atm. There are some unforseen complexities regarding shared volumes. However, I should have that fixed by release. Either way, at this point, Android is listening for UMS connections, so the hard part is done. I am having difficulties configuring vold.ftab to successfully unmount usb host connections, but we're in beta.

Also, you can configure multiple input methods on-the-fly with a new keyboard icon.

Solarnz has been busy too. He is finalizing "Localization Scripts" which will assist in the process of making the rom compatible with the many models we have to consider.

This is what I've been doing. We will have a release soon. If you feel you are qualified to test this rom, you can visit us on #xoom. You MUST BE ABLE TO PRODUCE LOGCATS AND PREFERABLY HAVE A GITHUB ACCOUNT. I am very excited about this rom. Also, i have scoured the depths of the Honeycomb framework. There are some amazing things in there. The future looks good for Xoomers.

Oh, almost forgot. It comes with Tiamat Kernel 1.4.5 ;)
[Xoom Android Development] rlasalle15:
I liiiiiiiiiiiiiiiike!
[Xoom Android Development] MitchTank:
Brd. Let me get it. Can produce logcat. Will create github if necessary. Would love to do this
[Xoom Android Development] rschenck:
Yea, but it seems the "visit us on #xoom" part gave you a bit of trouble.

If BRD had wanted beta requests on his dev thread, he would have asked for them to be made here, no?

Following directions, the OTHER white meat.

how to active SMS in this rom ?
[Xoom Android Development] cam30era:
Side load Google Voice, on your external SD Card. It works fine, but isn't available on the Market. You can find it attached in the General section. Do a search for "I got Google Voice working on my Xoom". Or if you have an android phone, just transfer the apk to your Xoom.

How did you root? did you upgrade to 3.1 then root or did you use tiamats rooted update? I ran into this problem so this is what I did:

1) restore to stock 3.1

2) I went through the setup wizard without setting ANYTHING up

3) rebooted into bootloader (which I left ulocked during the restore process) and flashed the custom recovery

4) Caught the boot and rebooted into recovery and flashed the root.zip

5) Rebooted

6) Rebooted to recovery and flashed the rom

7) Waited for the rom to reboot...if you get stuck here I would suggest running a logcat so you can see whats going on

8) Once booted up, i did a factory restore (only because my device would reboot constantly)

After I factory reset from settings, my device hasn't had a single reboot and is running smooth as butter. I hope this helps, if not, let me know what part you get stuck at. I will make a nand and go through the process to make sure I can do it again...If you have any questions feel free to ask here or PM me

Possible to permanently change SIM country value?

Thank you for a good ROM.

Everything seems to work great on my US Wifi Xoom (bought from amazon.com).

My only problem is that I live in Norway, and need access to a few "for Norwegian market only" apps.

I know I can probably use MarketAccess and MarketEnabler (need to find the latest versions - I'm using an old MarketAccess now without luck) to make the Xoom believe or understand that I'm in Norway, but is it a particular reason why this ROM seems to have hard coded SIM country value 310004? Is it anything I can do to permanently change this to 24201?

I understood something was not correct when I suddenly noticed after flashing the ROM that the Market app had the Movies and Books tabs, which my stock Xoom didn't have.

Then I noticed that several Norwegian apps were nowhere to be found in the Market...

Best regards,

Christopher
[Xoom Android Development] xmellyx:
It's just funny because there are links to the #xoom channel on irc in both bigrushdog's and bwcorvus's sigs:

"Brought to you by #xoom" and "CHAT with me on Freenode #xoom"

So reading the OP would have led you in the right direction and a simple google search would have showed you exactly how to get on irc. Instead you got all pissy when someone made a joke that wasn't even necessarily targeted at you.

Just sayin...
[Xoom Android Development] MitchTank:
I said my bad... A couple post back. Your right it does pay to read previous post. Just kiddin lesson learned, some times there is so mush material and you just try to find the stuff that's important.... needless to say one phone and a shalacking later, that's not a good way to go about it.

[Xoom Android Development] davidsos:
Why not just change the uastring from Desktop to whatever other selection that you prefer? Seems allot easier to me.

In your browser go to 'about:debug' enter. Settings -> Debug -> UA String -> Choose Your Selection and you're done.

well I. finally got it to download. I Flashed and everything works fine. No typing lag got 3G AND FOR THE FIRST TIME 720P SUPERB FLASH VIDEO. I had to delete flash and from the sd card re-do the current hulu flash apk.

One thing wrong I lost my favorite bootload since this rom reverts back to the standard bootload animation. No fair I had to redown load my favorite boot animation I hate extra work.:D
[Xoom Android Development] PMDColeslaw:
Ok my bad I thought he was saying there was a way to upgrade the wifi only to 3g. I thought it sounded a little crazy
[Xoom Android Development] ClydeB1:
Yes, but you already wiped in CWM initially. You should restore your Nandroid backup and then reflash the rom and don't wipe data.
[Xoom Android Development] bwcorvus:
Well since the xoom already has AOSP and the source has not been released, this is the best you are going to get. This rom is custom, because it differs from the one that came stock. Its tweaked and deoxed...all you can hope for today.
[Xoom Android Development] Brenardo:

[Xoom Android Development] headcheese:
what did you do? i cant get mine to go.

i tried flashing it, bootlooped, then restored my backup. i wiped with a factory data reset in settings which booted me into recovery then tried flashing again and still nothing.
[Xoom Android Development] JaymZ37:
@ClydeB1 : thanks :-)
[Xoom Android Development] diaa08:
restored meaning you went back to stock rom or restored like fixed the problem?
[Xoom Android Development] bwcorvus:
Because you wiped in CWM :(.
[Xoom Android Development] robbiev80:
Well I tried flashing it without a wipe at first but I got a boot loop. I went into recovery mode and wiped data, data partition, and dalvik cache. I rebooted the system and this time it booted up. It seemed to work fine because all my apps were restored. However, I did a factory reset from the android system menu just to be safe.

Android restored my apps from the market but I also did a restore using titanium. All is working fine.
[Xoom Android Development] headcheese:
thanks, it doesn't seem that a factory reset is even working. went to settings privacy and reset data or whatever. boots me into recovery, i reboot and all my apps and settings are still there.
[Xoom Android Development] robbiev80:
Yea I don't remember it booting me into recovery...Maybe do a wipe the way I did it. First in cwm and then again in the system settings.
[Xoom Android Development] bigrushdog:
Please read my OP. This rom will work for all versions.

Respectfully sir, you have done the exact OPPOSITE of my instructions in the OP.

Instructions:

1) Back up your device's apps and data and nandroid to be safe
2) Put rom in root of MicroSD
3) Flash rom
4) Reboot
5) DETERMINE IF A WIPE IS NECESSARY
If your device bootloops, which is not likely, you will need to wipe
Once booted, attempt to install an app either from the Market or a side loaded apk. If the install fails and borks out, a wipe is necessary.
If it is determined you have to wipe, do a Factory Reset in Android Settings menu. At this time do not use Clockwork Recovery to wipe.
Once wiped, flash rom again and reboot.
6) Welcome to Team Tiamat Xoom Rom motoGoogEpicPwnageWinningness

The possibility of wiping does not even arise until step 5. You made it step 1. You stated that you have Verizon 3g firmware, yet, you wiped anyway. You didn't even have to wipe at all!

Seems some folks are not following the instructions again. I have a fix for this activation issue anyway. At least i think I do. I have a Verizon 3G device not activated, so it's hard to test. I'll test it in IRC then post.

I don't know how that slipped in there! I don't use the stock browser so that's how it slipped past. Easy fix. Grab stock apk and the deodexed one. pull classes.dex out of deodexed apk and drop inside the stock one. Do adb push from recovery, flash the apk from recovery, or drop in rom and flash the rom.

Have solarnz remove speed tweak from stingray.rc and make a flashable ramdisk. Easy fix.
[Xoom Android Development] gpstar:
i'm having the same issue as you as well on a wifi xoom. The factory reset in the android settings menu doesn't seem to wipe anything and just does a reboot into recovery. When i reboot back into android, all my apps and personal files are still there.
[Xoom Android Development] headcheese:
i figured that part out. still working on flashing the rom.

i was using 3.2 recovery just wen back to 3.0.2.8 and the factory reset worked!

EDIT: i thought i had it for sure... still just loops, i am sticking with 3.0.2.8 though.
[Xoom Android Development] lrs421:
There's a factory reset option in recovery.

On second thought, I wouldn't do it unless it's brd approved.
[Xoom Android Development] jfvidalc:
Tried to see if factory reset would fix 3G problem, so I went into settings/privacy/factory reset, and it rebooted into recovery, showed progress bar wiping data, and then rebooted again and went into initial setup screens.

3G still not working after factory reset.

Shutdown/rebooted into recovery and currently running nandroid restore.

ETA:

Nandroid restore complete.

Back to stock rom/Tiamat 1.4.4, and got 3G back.
[Xoom Android Development] PengLord:
This is a huge step but in the future, would it be possible to have the addons (eg: Quickboot, Estrongs File Explorer, and Flash Player hulufied brdizzled, etc) in a separate flashable zip file?

[Xoom Android Development] RinTinTigger:

[Xoom Android Development] bigrushdog:
It's very possible for you to simply delete them.
[Xoom Android Development] diaa08:
haha what do you suggest for those of us who already did? particularly those of us who, in our excitement, forgot to make a nandroid backup? :p should i just flash system image through fastboot or do you think your fix will clear things up?
