Does the update speed up portrait mode specifically does scrolling seem perceptively smoother? I'm really hoping they fixed and found a better way of rendering portrait.
[Xoom General] cooleric56:
im not rooted how do i put that on?
[Xoom General] Bauxite:
If you have a USB OTG cable and a USB thumb drive you can do it. Check my post in development.

Remember folks: If you're rooted you need to put any files in /system/app you have deleted back in there or the update will fail.

3.2 update only around 16mb?

im scared i might hurt my xoom :(
[Xoom General] jjsoviet:
I'm so jelly of you Xoom users. Google has been treating it as its baby, while we have to wait on ASUS to roll out the updates. I've heard it has better HW acceleration than 3.1 - has anyone with the update experience such improvements? Kinda interested since we all badly need smoother navigation on Honeycomb.
[Xoom General] Kippui:
:D This is why I got the xoom instead of other tablets. Google treats us so nice. :)
[Xoom General] skylenorman:
Sorry for being a total idiot, but I've never put a rom (custom or otherwise) on my Xoom. I've been tapping "Check Now" for the last hour and still haven't gotten the update, so I want to install the one found in this thread.

How do I go about doing that? Is it similar to my EVO where I put this in the root directory and then boot my Xoom in recovery mode?
[Xoom General] cooleric56:
how do u boot the xoom into recovery mode? without hurting it
[Xoom General] timrock:
if i would have known this, i wouldnt have convinced this guy in best buy to buy a toshiba thrive for his wife.
[Xoom General] Kippui:
Turn it off

Turn it back on

Wait 3 seconds then hit volume down then hit volume up
[Xoom General] champers:
xoom is the nexus of the tablets. Updates first and straight from Google, not the manufacturer (in the USA)

how u mess up my easy instructions?

hold volume up + power button to turn it off
[Xoom General] jutley:
Damm google that was a fast update have euro even got a 3.1 yet they are gonna be real pissed now.
[Xoom General] cooleric56:
ok i did that look when i go to get it into recovery what do i push was i doing anything right or what
[Xoom General] Kippui:
idk why u are in recovery because you can't do anything in it except factory reset/updates(which needs to be on the xoom or otg method)

You are going to have to find a guide to do whatever you are trying to do.
[Xoom General] cooleric56:
im trying to insall the 3.2 update of honeycomb i have it but im not rooted so i cant flash it

If you are so scared of hurting it you should just wait for the official update, period.

You can hit the volume down key multiple times to select different boot up modes, RSD, Fastboot, Recovery. You hit the up key to select the one you want. Seriously do a search or read a guide in the development forum.

[Xoom General] cooleric56:
Can u do this with the wifi one if it is not rooted?
[Xoom General] Markusn82:
For those of you with 3.2 already, how does the update feel performance wise? There was a rumor awhile back that hardware acceleration would be improved in 3.2. Is this the case or does the Xoom still chug in many areas?
[Xoom General] littleneutrino:
Which update file did you use for the update on the Wifi version of the xoom. Other folks have tried the file posted on page 4 and were told it was an invalid file?
[Xoom General] csscmaster3:
I did use the update posted on page 4, I did however rename it to update.zip
[Xoom General] eliteone:
and flashed it through cwm? Or were you stock?

Success on stock rooted 3.2

Got the zip from this thread, renamed to update.zip put in device root, opened in Astro, drilled down META-INF, Google, Android and extracted update-script then edited to remove the lines that cause clockwork recovery to error (fourth and fifth lines I think, the getprop device check) and pasted the new script into the zip. Fired up ROM Manager, flashed Clockwork Recovery, chose to flash the edited update.zip

All worked out much better than expected. Now rooted on 3.2

EDIT 2: not sure about distributing an edited update.zip so here's the edited update-script replace the one in the official zip with it

[Xoom General] jjsoviet:
Please compare the stock browser input speed with, Opera Mobile 11.1 for example. Currently, Opera has the most responsive page loading and text input I've seen for Honeycomb. If the 3.2 update actually fixes this lag, then it would be awesome.

I can't believe 10 pages and not a freakin single review!!!! Come on guys, do a quick compare to 3.1 for all us HC owners out there!
[Xoom General] tritran18518:
Here is your review:

- Before update: stock 3.1 honeycomb

- After update:

+ still lagging when screen rotates between landscape and potrait mode. Nothing changes in term of speed, smooth...

+ Sd card support, u can see it at mnt/external1 when using file manager apps or setting/storage

+ Zoom in/ out function for apps that are not scaled properly. However, when i open Speedtest app, it appears with a tiny window (phone size) , and there is no option to zoom in/ out.

Finally, i think this is just a small update to enable spcard support.
[Xoom General] jjsoviet:
Awaiting this as well. We would like to see improvements vs. HC 3.1 in regards to:

- Stock browser input lag and HD Flash video playback

- General UI navigation fluidity

- Synthetic benchmark performance improvements

- App and 3D game performance

- Portrait orientation issues
[Xoom General] eliteone:
by the sounds of it, it might not be worth the trouble of going back to stock then? no performance boost at all then?
[Xoom General] BlackDino:
disappointing, I had no issues with scaling apps after disabling compatibility mode under the spareparts app
[Xoom General] tritran18518:
i think you are right.
[Xoom General] Brolloks:
is the -email not sending on reply- issue fixed now, that would be the only reason for me to go from Tiamat to 3.2?
[Xoom General] dew.man:
3.2 cured my browser ills

In 3.1 I had problems with: flash playing embedded movies, textarea contents spilling out on to rest of page, browser just shutting down without any explanation, and misc other querks. The 3.2 update seems to have addressed all those and I can now go through all of the test pages that were causing me grief before.

Also, the system overall seems much more fluid/smooth.

Excellent work MOTO!!!
[Xoom General] ahmed007:
Come on guys a bt of help pls answering my question One small questions guys I am on stock 3.1 and my bootloader is unlocked I hope it allows me to update to 3.2 with the unlocked bootloader or it won't update me any ideas thank you did try relocking my xoom but got an error on the m logo so did unlock it back

and then follow the directions at the beginning of this thread. Be advised that this makes it simple, but you will loose root.
[Xoom General] runandhide05:
Ok first things first, I have read every post, and have not seen it asked so I will. I rooted xoom via unlocking, then pushing the tiamat 1.1 method. from there I flashed lunch pad 1.2.3.

with that being said, how would I install this, without relocking, which will from my understanding wipe all data.

And if your solution does not require wiping user data will iloose root?
[Xoom General] Archangel:
anytime you load an update you will lose root because you are loading the stock boot.img which does not include the SU apk nor the clockwork recovery.img, so what is ideal is to wait for one of the devs to get the update,,,give them a day or so and I am sure they will have a great solution to incorporate it. Dont rush we have waited this long whats another day or so??

[Xoom General] Max_Pain:
now this may be a silly question but I must ask.

I just rooted our Xoom and moved to Tiamat last Friday, so there's no way i'm going through all that again. besides, i'm happy with Tiamat.

my question would be, can't the update be modified so that it can be flashed as an update on top of Tiamat 1.1 and turn it into Tiamat 1.2, in the same way that if I had HC 3.1 I could just flash this and turn it into 3.2 without having to flash a new rom?
[Xoom General] eliteone:
Sorry guys, camcorder batteries are dead:-( ..... but if nobody has uploaded a vid in an hour or two I will do so. But I can say coming from tiamat 1.1 3.2 really seems as quick and responsive to me. Keyboard lag seems better, though it still exists on the xda site. HD YouTube through the browser is smooth, with little or no loss in sync. Even managed to play a .Mkv video...... no audio though. The zoom feature works well, though all it does is stretch the image to fit the screen, so pixilation is visible. The launcher really does seem more responsive..... even the auto rotate feature is smoother. I'd say it was with the effort to downgrade, reinstall cwm, flash and root. Can't wait for a custom kernel:-) oh ya, almost forgot external SD has been moved from removable/microsd on tiamat to external1. Hope to get you guys a video review soon :-)

[Xoom General] drplaud:
I like the 3.2 update, but...

it appears that the SD card is READ ONLY. It works, it is recognized, but you cannot copy/move/paste from within Xoom, you have to do it externally (copying files from your computer directly on to the SD card by using a card reader). At least that's my experience. Are the rest of you seeing the same thing? I'm copying movies onto my 32 gig SD card via my laptop. So apps will not be able to write to the SD card apparently. Most confusing.
[Xoom General] timrock:
wow, really? oh well, i guess some fix is better than no fix. what about when plugging it into the pc? is the card recognized?
[Xoom General] Lothaen:
really?

that's odd.

as said - read is better than nothing, but surely it can't be difficult to make it read/write than just read
[Xoom General] okantomi:
I guess that you don't have be stock 3.1 anymore, just have updated to 3.1. See this thread in development section. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1165998
[Xoom General] drplaud:
If you connect your 3.2 Xoom via USB yes you can access the SD card easily, and do file operations. When the Xoom icon appears in my computer file manager after USB connect, there are now TWO subfolders: internal storage and SD card, the latter being the removable SD card. It's confusing because INTERNALLY to the Xoom SD card still refers to the INTERNAL storage, and the SD card is mounted under /mnt/external1. I thought it odd when I first purchased my Xoom WiFi that under file management it referred to SD card (making me think initially that the SD card was functional under 3.1), when in fact this was the internal memory. Now with the addition in 3.2 of SD card functionality, mounting it as "external1" is bizarre, and as I said at least for me the process is READ ONLY. I have copied movies to the SD card, it is mounted in my Xoom, and reads great, but I cannot move/copy/delete any of the SD contents from the Xoom itself, just via USB from my computer or card reader connected to my computer. Wow.
[Xoom General] vamp6x6x6x:

Not sure why you would not want to root your Xoom but believe me its not that difficult. Also I don't know how many people had and issue with Google huddle crashing on 3.1 but its working perfectly fine on 3.2... The upgrade with rooted 3.1 stock to 3.2 stock instructions took me 5 minutes from download to root.

well worth it in my opinion
[Xoom General] gzgundon:
^^ Yay!

what changed?
[Xoom General] Legato Bluesummers:
I'm finding the same thing myself. I could move them via the PC from my internal SD to external1. But can point no apps to that external card to get them to save anything on it. And when i use astro to move files from internal to external it won't let me move or paste anything onto it. Rather sad. I was hoping for more. But oh well. This is a start. Few patches and it should be read/write.

My 32GB card reads fine. And got my USB Motorola OTG cable today too. Hoping I can figure out how to hook a thumb drive or portable HD to this thing now.
[Xoom General] atz06:
Looks like 3.2 does not support USB thumb/flash drive even with the Motorola OTG adapter.
