[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ambrosios:
did anyone get CWM recovery to work with the japan's official 3.1 update?

Edit 1: was about to get CWM to install and also able to get Tiamat 1.4.4 to install.......Confirmed that SD card is working......

try to flash wifi_rootTool_3.1.zip......flash went okay...but it will just bootloop...did a factory reset in CWM with no success...had to start over....will try to do the old fashion way now with adb
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ydaraishy:
I would guess that a version of CWM working on 3.0.1 would work on 3.1 -- it's a separate environment. Like you said -- it's the things you're trying to flash that are the issue?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Core618:
Okay, I had soft-bricked my phone and recovery was not working, so, after a few minutes of tech time with T-Mo they shipped me a new phone.

Even though i called them to cancel the shipment when I managed to get Odin working and get the phone back up...

Long story short - the brand spankin' new device just landed on my desk updating stock apps as I type.

KB5 stock.

Is there anyway to back this up as is before I add CWM? Can I somehow dump it with Odin? I still have not played with Odin enough to know this....

I'd like to preserve the stock rom if it all possible, for 'just in case'
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] robbbbit:
You could pull ur /system/app thru adb or you could use titanium backup.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Core618:
That I can do, I meant something similar to a nand, the whole system backed up.

Thought it might come in handy... no worries though, grabbing the Kd1 update then I'll root/cwm and nand that... just figured since I had a virgin phone I'd back it up if I could.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] krylon360:
DONT TOUCH A THING!!!!!

We need the a fresh SBL.BIN and BOOT.BIN

Get with drhonk for the commands.

Dont flash KC1 or KD1 just yet.

run this in linux if you have it.

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] mad_fitter:
Yes, please do. This could save us all huge headaches in the near future!.

Sent fro somewhere deep inside my head.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Core618:
Fek, sorry guys, I just got done grabbing the Kies KD1 - literally right before I rad this it finished installing.

I haven't flashed anything, this is still just the stock phone, with the T-Mo/Samsung ROM, upgaded, but not with any custom roms, on it if that will do it, I'll hold off rooting, etc until I can get the sbl and boot pulled if these will still work?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] krylon360:
if you did kies, that should be fine.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] chadster214:
i'll do this once I get my new phone. just let me know what to do
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Core618:
Good - I have leagues this evening, headed out the door in a few.

I'll toss the laptop in my bag and do this at the office tomorrow morning since it needs linux for this.

Can't even remember which flavor I have installed on the lap right now... but no matter, it'll do.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] GDofWR420:
Sorry to hear about your phone that sucks. Thanks for taking one for the team, really you saved alot of other phones by sacrificing yours. Thank you sir
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] chadster214:
someone has to do it.. :D so i took one for the team.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Bl4ckpheniX:
Krylon I also have a virgin phone kb5 can't get to it until I'm done with work in 4 hours. Use the same code on Mac with adb?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] GDofWR420:
Wish I could replace it for you
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Core618:
PM'd Drhonk for detail, not heard back yet....

I'll give this a go on my own this morning, and hope for the best :eek:

the sooner I get this done, the sooner I can get Black Ice on this phone - kinda sick of the stock phone already.....

Finally some good news for anyone outside the US!

"The non-U.S. 3.1 update does include SD card activation"

https://supportforums.motorola.com/message/410341

Post from Motorola forum manager

Still no news on when we'll get it in the UK, but good news in general
[Xoom General] jss42:
More news on the Motorola forums:

Should get within the next few weeks

"Good news!

The 3.1 update for the Motorola XOOM™ outside the U.S. has started. Owners in Japan started receiving the update today (June 21). Owners in other regions can expect updates to start over the next several weeks until the roll out is complete.

Motorola has responded to the widely-expressed desire to have the SD card activated on Motorola XOOM. The 3.1 update for non-U.S. devices, in addition to many other improvements, also includes an SD card activation solution. Release notes for this update will be made available in each region. Please note that functionality varies by region."
[Xoom General] inspiron41:
So...when do US users get SD support?!
[Xoom General] timrock:
i would like for someone with a non US Xoom to confirm that it works.
[Xoom General] T0LLPHR33:
good for those non-US XOOM owners...but I'm pretty sure that the largest % of XOOM owners are based in the US...so why push the SD support to all other regions excluding the US is beyond me....:mad:

I'm sure US will get it shortly after you guys...but it would be the smartest thing for Moto's Marketing to just push the SD support update to all XOOM owners in ALL REGIONS...
[Xoom General] alodar1:
ahhh....because they were releasing anyway...and it was an easy way to get to the next step. My bet is the US will see 3.2 with SD card support...and bug fixes based on the NON US 3.1 release.

Dev for things like this never stops....they fork the tree and keep going. Sounds like the fork was....US/NON US. eventually the forks come back together.....and eventually they will fork again...with each new release.

It will be interesting to see if the 4g implementation is 100% HW based....most likely...but...who the heck knows...
[Xoom General] timrock:
from matt at motorola forums
[Xoom General] T0LLPHR33:
I know this was a little far fetched for even me but I was really hoping that at the very least the SD support aka HC 3.2 update would come a lot sooner than later (was really hoping to have the SD support before I go on vacation this saturday)...oh well looks like I'll have the update either during or after my vacation...

It almost makes sense that they pushed the 3.2 Update/SD Support to the non-US regions 1st since US was the 1st to get the 3.1 update...still say that Moto should have put the foot down by now and just released the update to all regions...but I'm sure there is a ton of work to allow all features to be working and released in their own regions...

I'm really interested to see how quickly the 4G LTE hardware/software upgrade comes to us after the 3.2/SD support update is released? hhhmmm....
[Xoom General] alodar1:
Well I certainly can I say Android development is new to me. With GED and non GED. I understand the base releases of the OS and its updates....and in general understand the Branded skinning that has to take place. Not sure if those terms are appropriate. I think its hard as a consumer sometimes to think that a company is NOT working on a fix to your problem....specifically. They are instead working on whats next....and included in the whats next is x% bug or issue fix from the previous release. That is, of course, if the bug is not destroying sales.. IF the bug is a show stopper, then all hands on deck to get it fixed. With the SD card implementation, it has been a future investment. Because the investment can come in 2 different flavors....GED and NON GED, the timeline is different. I 'assume' the Xoom is a GED and as such, cannot, by contract, implement a NON GED resolution....without the goodwill of Google.

To my knowledge 3.2 doesn't mention a SD card resolution. If it does, then the answer is clear. Otherwise...development continues. Dev of 4.0 is not waiting on 3.x. 3.1 was most likely not waiting on 3.0 to release...but, could be incorporating some 3.x fixes, etc.

Since Matt over in Motorola says this is a NON GED implementation....3.2 falls back into the guess category...where we can add as many fixes and features as we wish...and be radically disappointed when it does release.
[Xoom General] alias_neo:
Not entirely correct. XOOM in the US is a GED which gets updates direct from google and which as of now still does not have sd card support. Xoom outside the US are not GED and as such get updates from Motorola. Motorola is getting a hard time since google didn't implement sd support and so they are / have implemented their own fix. This means that those of us outside the US have to wait longer but we get the added advantage of Motorola devs going a few rounds with our updates before the bell. As such, the update we are about to receive (3.1) is the same google version with additional changes by Motorola, namely SD support.

This could be seen as a good or a bad thing, either way, its entirely possible (and quite likely right now) that the rest of the world will see official SD support before the US.

Macbots drool as I XOOM through the Galaxy to my hearts Desire.
[Xoom General] robbiev80:
They're probably just releasing the "Motorola" version of the Tiamat kernel. :cool:
[Xoom General] lpasq:
Ah yes... the TED variant is blessed with many goodies

...xoom posted...
[Xoom General] Lothaen:
I thought the same!
[Xoom General] burden010:
Hmm. It's a shame that Moto have to go down the path of implementing their own fix. Obviously this means that for the US Xoom to stay a GED they will need to wait for Google to provide a solution and CANNOT roll out their SD fix to US Xoomers.

Here's my take on things:

US gets 3.1 first, way ahead of Rest of World

ROW get 3.1 weeks/months later but with Moto SD fix

US will NOT get Moto SD fix

US gets 3.2 way ahead of ROW (with SD fix??? I certainly have not seen evidence that this is the case)

Moto probably ignore ROW for 3.2 and concentrate on ICS.

Looks like a mixed bag of good/crappy support for the Xoom.
[Xoom General] ZoinksS2k:
I postulate that the SD card update will be available for download and/or installed when LTE upgrade happens.
[Xoom General] Lothaen:
probably - although moto fix and google fix for sd may be different things - meaning that as you said, moto will skip 3.2 or they'll be an EVEN LONGER delay in applying it to ROW
[XPERIA X2 General] ironandrei:
To synchronize Xperia X2 (Windows mobile 6.5) with your PC first you need to install the necessary Microsoft software.

If your PC is running on Windows XP you need Microsoft Active Sync. But your device will not be recognized as an external Drive... so forget about it!!! (I can’t even view the device photos,with my version of Active sync) You can explore the Phone, add or delete files, but that’s it! What you know from Nokia Ovi suit or PC suite is not applied. It can happens that your contacts are doubled, tripled in the phone if you use the sync one after another, and it syncs automatically.

For Windows 7 you have to use Windows Mobile device center. Be shore that your phone is not connecte when you first install the programm.Mobile device center, seems to be better than Active Sync, but I prefer the old OVI. I find it easier!

I don't use Vista, so I can't tell you anything about it. As I understand you allso have to use Windows Mobile device center, ore easy Sync for this OS.

So don’t expect your phone to be simply Connected to the PC, and to be recognized as external Drive. You need the sw!
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] 8igdave:
- Did google searches and on here but my problems seem different to others or I don't understand the solution.

I installed the stock orange latest rom not knowing it would rid me of root and all that so I'm trying to get back to recovery so I can nanbackup back to leedroid.

What I have done so far -

1) Downgraded (was an absolute pain, took many attempts seems that rooting twice screws things over)

2) Rooted using visionary+ - comfirmed I am rooted

3) Installed rom manager and reflashed recovery with it.

4) Open recovery and get a Red exclamation mark in a red triangle.

Interwebz tells me this means I have no recovery or am not rooted. I am rooted and I have reinstalled recovery.

What have I got to do to fix this?

Please do help :)

:EDIT:

had an idea while trying to cold boot into it it is reading the file i have on there to downgrade with and I think that is causing the problems.

:EDIT2:

didn't fix it. Sigh. Really need help guys.
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] tigrisimo:
ok my friend this could happen because you are not ablr to root the DHD perhpahs it has the last OTA or used an RUU to actualize to last version, doublecheck the firmware version on the phone, then i will explain a little more (i know its painful already have been victim by the rooting process)

good luck
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] 8igdave:
I am getting so god damn pissed off with this. As I took my battery out for the 100th time I thought to my self mmm this is gonna break if I'm not careful and out pops my volume rocker. Had to bend it to get it back in. Don't evne understand why this is all happening. I did this all fine the first time around.

Firmware is 132.405.6

The rooting isn't the problem, its recovery which is.
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] 8igdave:
Just discovered holding up and pushiung power button is meant to get you into CWM but i get "E:can't open /cache/recovery/command"

Annoyingly it lets me reboot and would ahve saved my volume rocker :@

:EDIT:

Christ I forgot to plug my phone up to the pc and run s-off. What a bloody moron.

I couldn't hate my self much more right now *strokes his bent volume rocker*

:EDIT2:

S-OFF didn't fix it either :/

Infact I can now no longer boot into recover, it freezes at the HTC logo.
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] jkoljo:
Now that you have S-OFF, go to ROM Manager and reflash the ClockworkMod.
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] 8igdave:
That didn't work, I had to manualy install it in the end. I now have V3.0.0.5 but I can't restore my backup because:

E:Format_volume: no MTD partition "boot"

What does this mean and how do I fix it? I need to get that backup back! It has everything :O

That backup was made with a V3 CWM. But I hear I need V2 to use with froyo? GAHHHHHHHHH.

Got to downgrade CWm now I guess. EURGH!
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] 8igdave:
Rom manager wouldn't downgrade but I tryed upgrading to 3.0.0.6 in a hopeful attempt and appears to be working XD.

Then after alllll this I have to find out how to fix my echoing as it works on the stock rom so must be something i need to do to leedroid. I'm thinking radio change?
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] tigrisimo:
so i assume you finally downgraded to a "rooteable" android version... if still need help, send a PM so i will try to help u!

good luck!!
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] tigrisimo:
.... got it, you hace to plug the hd to pc, debbugginng on, (charge only) download the rom manager, reflash the klockwork, and try again

good luck!:cool:

Hey guys. First and foremost

love my G2x

. Am a noob to Rom switching have only moded to CM7. I noticed alot of people modding further with their Robin device. The G2x made it so easy to mod. Want to mod further but am worried because I'm a noob. Been around the forums and am thinking the Vibrant would be a good Robin because of it's variety of Roms, Kernel's, radios and other features. Rather wait to mod my Batman. And pick up a Robin that I won't care if I break. Suggestions?

Ill stick to the phone and count on you. Been easy so far, however I'm susceptible to dumb luck :rolleyes:

THANK YOU EVERY G2x devs and users alike.

G2x with the update gingerbread or not would keep me with this phone for at least my 2 year contract. Robin has Batman, This Robins got th G2x league of...

[Atrix 4G General] Magnetox:
The guide will only be for bell firmware. If you're running an international firmware its much more complex, and I never swapped to an international firmware, so I can't say how to do it. However, NFhimself managed to go from the french SBF to bell 2.2.2 and bell radio. Not sure how exactly, he's a master with ADB and code. He's the one who has made the bell deodex files, as well as many bell atrix mods. Contact him if you need help going from french sbf to bell, since he went through the process. However, know you'll need pretty extensive programming/code knowledge.

The guide will be up asap, im studying for exams / beginning to write it right now. :D

To clarify: the guide will show all bell users who are on 0.37.4 how to update who have modified system files (ie. webtop hack, deodexed, etc.) to bell android 2.2.2. A clean update as well, not some weird glitch of an update.
