[Xoom General] IndivisibleP:
As far as the OP I don't think the question should be about Google updating the xoom really. Google makes honeycomb so i think the real question has to be whether they will update honeycomb again before ice cream comes out. As far as I can tell once the next version of android OS comes out the previous version seems to stop being upgraded (once froyo came eclair stopped moving, froyo stopped updating with gingerbread, etc). Will honeycomb stop with ice cream? judging by the past, probably.

As far as the future of early adopters, I think the best thing to hope for is that the xoom (tegra 2) will be sufficient to run ice cream and be compatible enough that it will appear OTA directly from Google. As far the xoom being the first device to get it, I highly doubt it. Odds are a new "vanilla" device be it phone or tablet will debut the OS (also with whatever developments have been made in mobile processors since tegra2 under the hood). Yes the naked truth is that it is a fast fast moving market.

The percs offered to early xoom owners from google have been: first to get honeycomb 3.1 and guaranteed invitation/acceptance to Google music. Beyond this I don't think Google has anymore special treatment up the sleeves. And I don't immagine they are that stoked about being subtly expected to do damage control for Motorola's 4g problems.

If there does happen to be a HC 3.2 upgrade before ice cream then perhaps xoom owners may be first to get it but at any rate i immagine ice cream ends up on the xoom regardles, either through xda or Google or of course both.

And I think that is the future for xoom owners.

Edit: and just to clarify, I dont think Google exactly promised that they would update devices for 18 months, but rather that their partners have promised to update their devices to run whatever compatible android versions are released for those devices for 18 months. I.e no being stuck on froyo forever even though your phone can run gingerbread. What we would want to hear iis tthat Google promises to release compatible updates for your device for 18 months, but this isnt what they said. Plus that would pivot around device release times which isn't possible. If a new device comes at the end of an OS cycle I doubt Google will carry version for another year because one phone hopped on at the last minute. Btw sorry to be so cynical guys, just calling it as i see it
[Xoom General] hdtvpower:
No update no sd

It will most likely not be updated again and will not receive sd card support anymore.

HC 3.1 is the final version, next version is smoerrebroed 4.0.

[Xoom General] tumbes20000:
My guess is that the xoom will definitely get ice cream sandwich given that its a pure google device. The nexus s just came out and its specs are worse than the xoom and nexus will definitely get ice cream sandwich. Now whether the other tablets get the upgrade is up to the manufacturer.

Hardware specs are not the limiting factor to getting android upgrades, its manfacturers modding android to fit their custom software like compiz or motoblur.
[Xoom General] raviosopr:
ice cream is for cellphones and tablets ( I think this is gonna be for 7" tablets and lower) and honeycomb is a OS optimized for tablets, so I think that we will see more honeycomb updates
[Xoom General] burden010:
This is absolute FUD. You don't know that this is true, nor have there been any indications from Google/Moto that this is the case. Stop scaremongering.
[Xoom General] jm9843:
Ice Cream Sandwich will be the latest version of Android upon release and will apply to everything (phone, tablet, tv). They are not going to continue Honeycomb as some kind of separate "large screen tablet" branch after ics as you seem to be implying.
[Xoom General] Lothaen:
US Xooms will probably get updates to ICS I guess... didn't they have a prototype of ICS at Google I/O on a Xoom?

No, they said it would be merging of the Tablet and Phone - so it should be any sized screen (although that probably just ranges from phone (can't think of lowest size, but lets say for the sake of argument:) 3" -> tablet 10.1"

I concur - that's how I read it all too :)

Also I imagine there may be a couple of bugfixes along the way but nothing major till ICS (4.0?)

so maybe 3.1.1, 3.1.2, probably not a 3.2 - only if there's a new feature they want to push out that is fairly big...

However - if google are responsible for the SD Card slot - then 3.2 may address that issue - else it'd probably just be a 3.1.1 update judging on how they have done updating numbering on the past...
[Xoom General] rivera912:
I think Google had Moto add SD to be ready for Ice cream. Its my idea that that was the plan maybe im crazy but who knows

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Scytheb:
Correct me if I'm wrong , but since Cyanogenmod is based on the stock android os, shouldn't it have the normal ,fully functioning , keyboard of gingerbread on this version? It seems to me that although you can choose any input language , there is no auto correct at all or prediction for any foreign language. I need prediction and auto correct for greek because it's really hard to type fast without it.

Is there any way to fix this (maybe dictionaries where kept out because of space and can be found somewhere?)

Edit: Suuure , 2 days and noone has any idea about it :P ... I worked out that I need a main.dict file to place in the proper folder , but can't find that file anywhere ...

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MIMi King:
It doesn't matter that it's build on a stock rom... they might have modified the keyboard to look better and also removed other languages dictionaries to save space and reduce the size of their rom...

you can use better soft keyboards or either download the appropriate dictionary for your phone and inject it into your phone!!!
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Scytheb:
Gladly mate... But I didn't find any decent dictionaries (or even half-decent)...

I am looking for a source but to no avail.. The keyboard is so annoying to use without any prediction at all , and I've found other problems with it lately... It was the thing that made me just go back to my own 2.29 and just keep the upgraded radio which actually did

I tried to flash the latest (at that time) Synergy Rom on Sunday. I had been trying out Sense 3.0 Roms since being on Cyanogen for 3 months and low in behold after flashing and rebooting, the phone hung on the splash screen, wouldn't even get to the boot animation. I pulled the battery out to reboot and kept doing the same things. So then i just figured I go through bootloader to get to recovery. When I hit recovery, the phone hung on the splash screen and thus I was forced to report my phone lost because I use it for work and was able to get a new one the next day (had to pull out my old bb 8530). The phone charges, but it will not do anything when powering on, or hitting recovery but go to splash. Once again when i try to go into recovery, it won't get there.

Any Help Please.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] k2buckley:
You need to reflash your recovery. Is it just hanging at the splash screen, or is it rebooting at the splash screen?

Download this PC36IMG I attatched (it's Amon RA recovery v2.3). Place the file on the main directory of your sd card (you'll probably need to take the SD card and use a card reader to get the file on the card....or put the card in another phone with an sd slot if you have access to one...just get the PC36IMG.zip file on your card). Once it's on the card and card's back in the phone, boot to your bootloader. It should scan and find the PC36IMG then ask you to update...select vol up to say yes. Should finish in 10-15 seconds. Then when it asks you to reboot, say no. Now from the bootloader menu, choose recovery. Do you successfully boot to recovery now, hopefully?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dels28:
Ok, I got that, I put cyanogens latest release candidate from 5/5 on the card, I have Ra's recovery up, i guess i jumped ahead and the install aborted, tips please.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] k2buckley:
So what part aborted? When you were flashing the rom? Just to clarify, you did successfully get the recovery flashed, right? Now it's the rom you're having trouble flashing?

If so, I'd be sure that you don't have a corrupted download. Check the md5 checksum, or simply try redownloading it and trying again. Good luck.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dels28:
It starts to install the ROM, then it all of a sudden aborts after getting 50-75 percent complete. I'm trying RC 7.3 now, wala, it worked, well i have an extra evo now i need to figure out what to do with it. BIG THANKS.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] k2buckley:
You're welcome, glad you got it squared away.

As far as having two Evo's...just be careful. If I'm not mistaken, when you report a phone lost or stolen to Sprint, they will make the ESN bad. I'd check into that, to make sure that one them doesn't have a bad ESN. I didn't even catch that part of your OP that you had already gotten a new one, lol.

I have a cheap one (16USD) bought from dealextreme.com I use it with a kodak zi8 flip camera and my nexus one. on the zi8 it works great, on the nexus you can see vignetting from the lens.

there are several different lenses, and some are VERY low quality, blurred edges, etc. be sure to read reviews and view sample images of the specific lens you want to buy, if you can

it's a fun accesory to have when used with a photo app (picplz, photoshop express, etc)

I have friend that has a Droid X and she wants me to root it for her to help her with her battery life. I have a rooted HTC Inspire and it's crazy how much my battery has improved w/ rooting, custom ROMs, and using SetCPU. After looking around in your forums, I've noticed that even though they're both Android phones they are completely different in the wrold of how to root. I have a few questions and hope you can help me out.

1. What is easiest way to root? I see somethings about z4root, but not sure since it's no longer in the market. I have noticed that this phone is about 1,000 times easier to root than my Inspire was.

2. I see that you guys have no luck w/ ROM Manager. Why and what should I be using for the Droid. The guys in HTC and Inspire forums swear by ROM Manager and I've had nothing but luck with it.

3. Since there are dedicated webpages to the Droids, can I find more ROMs there as it seems there aren't as many choices here for the Droid X as there are in the Inspire forum.

Thank you for the help.
[Droid X General] djsupersoak:
Is she running on Gingerbread? If so, there is currently no root method except to SBF to Froyo, root that with a tool such as z4root, then download and install a pre-rooted version of gingerbread available online.
[Droid X General] GunnerOnASpooky:
The X is a relatively simple phone to work with as far as root is concerned. Like the previous poster said, if she has taken the latest update, you'll have a few extra steps, but its still pretty easy. As far as Rom Manager goes, it works great for the X, but you have to use the Droid X bootstrapper in order to use it successfully. The biggest factor for the X is that the boot loader is locked, so while we can run custom roms, we don't have the same freedom as other phones. Everything you need to know about rooting is pretty easy to find in these forums, so have fun.
