Unfortunately yes, you need to be rooted to free up space and memory.
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nbetcher:
I recommend using SalsaSlide (from the development section), but you should know that Bluetooth doesn't work yet.
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NexusSlide:
AOSP roms give the most internal storage usually between 140 - 142 mb
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] poormanq45:
Dalvik cache will use almost all of the internal space.

Root and move it to Extend and you're set

sent from my MT3GS running CM7 nightly
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bunu:
1) Root

2) Install CyanogenMod 7 a.k.a CM 7

4) Install Wi-Fi Fix or GPS fix if needed

3) Use ClockworkMod Recovery to make an EXT Partition at 512 mb (largest size you can make from within the ClockworkMod App)

4) Use a free app from the android market "S2E" to move apps and dalvich cache to EXT Partition
[Xoom General] GodEater:
Before you go about changing it, could you do me a quick favour and make a note of the User Agent that it's using currently, and post it here?

whatsmyuseragent.com <-- This site will tell you.

Edt: Gah. Stupid "you can't post links when you're a newbie" limitation!
[Xoom General] jutley:
Edit ok why didn't you just say that site looked well dogy can you help me get to us stock
[Xoom General] GodEater:
Erm. Nope.

Didn't ask for your IP address. Don't want it. The UserAgent string doesn't contain it, all it does is identify the version of the browser that your Xoom reports to remote websites. I can't use it for anything malicious.

I already upgraded my Xoom (also a UK one), and have thus lost the chance to easily get in on the free keyboard and mouse that Motorola are offering to UK Xoom owners - since you have to visit the promotion website with your xoom.

When I do that with my Xoom I'm visiting it using a browser which is sending the UserAgent used by the US firmware, and so the website does not recognise me. I thought I'd ask a kindly soul who still has yet to change their firmware to the US one to help me out - but if you don't want to help - so be it. I'll just have to go back to the stock UK image temporarily.

Sorry if I scared you.

For reference, this is the string I'm looking for, which is what my Xoom is currently set to use :

Mozilla/5.0 (Linux; U; Android 3.1; en-us; Xoom Build/HMJ37) AppleWebKit/534.13 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/4.0 Safari/534.13

Yours would look similar, but not identical to it. Note there is no IP address info in it.
[Xoom General] jutley:
Ok I tell you what help me get to Us stock first and I will give you the info you need is that a deal.
[Xoom General] GodEater:
Not really, if you go to US stock, you won't have the info I need any more.

Never mind - I'll do it myself.

There's a ton of guides on what you want to do in the Android Dev section for Xoom - are none of them any use?
[Xoom General] jutley:
I don't know which one I need to use I have a wifi only tablet stock on 3.01 I was going to get the info for you first before we convert mine to us stock
[Xoom General] Lothaen:
the motorola dev site with the images on is the best way to go.

that's what I did.

download drivers

download us wifi image

oem unlock

flash

(do not oem lock) though

then boot up, set up, it'll OTA to 3.1 job done.

i'll see if i can find the guide I used

this post kinda has the answer:

you'll want this image for the us 3.0.1 image: Build HWI69 for US Retail	122 MB	N/A	MZ604 Product Specs	Download

fastboot oem unlock

I think it then asks if you are sure, blah blah blah follow on screen instructions

fastboot flash boot boot.img

fastboot flash system system.img

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

fastboot flash userdata userdata.img

fastboot erase cache

fastboot erase userdata

DO NOT fastboot oem lock
[Xoom General] jutley:
Thanks this will be so helpful to me what about recovery and root don't we need them to do it all I want is us stock 3.1 don't care about root and stuff I am on v3.01 uk xoom wifi.
[Xoom General] Lothaen:
updated my last post.

no - you don't need to root if all you want is a stock 3.1 us wifi image. I didn't - also in theory when the 3.2 update comes I should be able to get that OTA too without worrying... although someone may correct me if I am wrong! :)
[Xoom General] jutley:
This part do you have to type all this at once or line by line?

fastboot flash boot boot.img

fastboot flash system system.img

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

fastboot flash userdata userdata.img

fastboot erase cache

fastboot erase userdata
[Xoom General] jutley:
And how is the us rom all working any problems downloading etc what's the differences I know on the us one the updated will come fast.
[Xoom General] okantomi:
Line by line...hit enter after each line.
[Xoom General] Lothaen:
haven't really noticed much difference to be honest.

the UK language is an issue on both UK 3.0.1 and US 3.1 for the bluetooth keyboard is my only grief with it
[Xoom General] jss42:
I'm going to ask a potentially stupid question (well 2 of them)....

Does this have any impact on the app purchased from the app store? I.e. can I still download and run the apps I've brought with my UK account?

Also

Does the US image have an option to set UK keyboard layout? I need £ sign :D
[Xoom General] jutley:
The answers are yes and urm yes :)
[Xoom General] jss42:
Many thanks to everyone, my UK Xoom is now on 3.1!

I flashed and got the update

Now just need 3.2 :D
[Xoom General] jutley:
to all i have just re done the whole guide in the first post to make it abit easier i hope it helps all those uk euro owners like myself to get to a true stock ged honeycomb v3.2 enjoy dont forget to hit the thanks button if the guide helped you.
[Xoom General] PrinceTc:
Hii

I will also try the guide u made, but i am not super user, so is it save for guy to try it out, my xoom is canadian xoom, will this guide work on this xoom?

and another q too, i living in denmark, so i need some of the letters in danish, can i get it with US image, or noot..?

i f not, how can i put the danish keeyboard languages on the US xoom...?
[Xoom General] Lothaen:
it's a very safe guide - it looks scary, but it's pretty straight forward actually! just read it through first and do it step-by-step..

it should work for non-UK xoom's too - i.e. Canadian/australian, I did the same steps basically which was for a CAN to US Xoom (see my sig link for this post):

[Q][SOLVED] Upgrading from Canadian Wifi 3.0.1 to US Wifi 3.1 which also details rooting, kernals, and a language pack (see below)

As for the danish keyboard - I have no idea - Moto posted that they would fix non-us keyboards in their 3.1 update - I dont know if google's 3.2 update will fix it for US xoom's or not - not tested yet - more locales 2 from the market helps add in languages you are missing but doesnt fix the actual keyboard when connected...

if you root and stuff you can get a 'language pack' but i dont know if this fixes the keyboard layout for the BT Keyboard.

if you find a good answer for non-us keyboard layouts let me know :D

good timing to re-write that guide up :)

Don't want to be sarcastic like the rest. I'll just say that this should have have fleshed out into an entire tip thread with that included. The reaction would have been more positive. Just a tip for you in the future.
[HTC EVO 3D] flyingwolf:
Part of the snarkiness is because this is covered in the manual for the phone.

Hi all DEVs ,as you can see in the left,I am from China ,And you may know that there`s a Greet Fire Wall which was bulit by the China Government,so i cant access MuiltUPLoad or Hotfile or MediaFire directly.AS for me it`s easy ,I can use a VPN service or something else . But when i want to introduce your jobs to my friends or some one else ,there`s a Problem.They may not konw how to use a VPN or so,What then can see is just a White page with"The page can`t be shown" on it.They may think i am playing a joke on them .

So i think you can upload your jobs to another service (just a copy is enough) such as SkyDrive ,or could you please allow me to mirror your job to another server which can be accessed in China ? I know that there may some one already mirrored your jobs without permission ,They may even write there name on your jobs as if the job is done by them.But I haven`t done it even once .What i think is just that i don`t want to disobey your willings...

I will be very happy if you allow me to mirror your jobs or you can make a copy on another server...

Please forgive my bad English...
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] abrarabbu:
Its not Jobs, It is Roms.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Hzu:
If you have nothing to say, then don't even bother to.

@OP, since you can easily obtain the files, why don't you re-upload them and privately send the files to them? Just make sure you don't make your re-uploaded links public since most developers don't want their users to re-upload their ROMS.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] pheel:
是的。 您可以给您的朋友这材料但是，不要放在网上。

English now: Yes send them the jobs/material/fw/roms privately, but DO NOT upload it or put it on the net for others apart from your friends to download. :D

[XPERIA X10 Android Development] esimon1980:
Correct me if I am wrong, but I believe what OP was trying to do is to get the PERMISSION TO RESHARE those ROMs from our DEVs :D

OP, Maybe you could send PMs to Dev(s) who is/are concerned to this matter. It's far more efficient, don't you think? :cool:
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Hzu:
That's why we said, send the files to his friend PRIVATELY.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] zjhjack123:
I have already done it and I am waiting for reply...
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] zjhjack123:
I am not only mean the ROMs but also the softwares and kernels and anything else:cool::cool:
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] zjhjack123:
Thanks ... But i really want to share it .

The good things should be used to share with everyone , doesn`t it?:p
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Hzu:
Yeah, but most devs here prohibit anyone from re-uploading their ROMs but if you are going to send them privately to your friends, it's OK I guess.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] zjhjack123:
SO that`s why I write my request there...
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] pheel:
don't worry. just send privately.

So I've purchased the last year and half

Nexus, To get into Development and I needed an unlock phone. My iPhone 3G was slow and Nexus was just shockingly fast.

iPad: It had 3G and GPS, i wanted to use it as GPS Dashboard. I ran into troubles with the apps, none of the apps support the full screen navigation till several months later.

iPhone 4: Development and just to be hip (don't slam me for being hip...)

Nexus S: Also great for development and the damn thing had a front facing camera that I could use within development apps.

Moto Atrix: 4G*, Dual Core, frontfacing camera, GFX, 1gig of ram, and I thought it would be great for development but I prefer the Nexus S. Honestly, I love my Atrix but its a pain. Its running on 2.2 as of now, the 4G connection is

slower

than 3G, and MOTO Blur. Moto Blur should be an option on its devices.

Asus Eee transformer: It was cheap, fast, and of course (you guessed it!) for development...
[General Questions and Answers] vnvman:
I got this Desire about a year ago. When i choosed it i could also pick a Galaxy S and an iPhone4 (contract). I didn't pick the Galaxy because i wasn't convinced about the build quality, the annoying lack of flash and notification led annoyed me and also because at that time development for that specific phone was kinda weak. The iPhone wasn't even worth considering because iOS4 was piss poor compared with froyo, and also because xda goodies were just too tempting for me. Probably if the iPhone had iOS5 on it already, with many android features copied, my choice would have been a little harder, but i was so curious about android that i would have probably grabbed the Desire anyway.
[General Questions and Answers] tktino:
I find it interesting that a lot of people now are working towards Android, what made you decide on Android when you had options like WebOS, Windows Mobile, Symbian. Or Was it the hardware too?
[General Questions and Answers] vnvman:
Well actually being a long trade HTC fan helped me deciding. I was coming from a winmo 6.1 HTC device (Cruise) and i wanted to try out android. Sure hardware was also something i took into account: android phones were much better than any symbian back then already, and WP7 seemed unable to compete in terms of functionality, it seemed to be a really locked down os plus i truly hated the interface (and i still do lol). WebOS was actually worth considering, but it already felt like something from the past: back in the days of the big android boom i saw google's platform as the best option, tho i always appreciated palm devices in terms of form factor and ease of use.
[General Questions and Answers] tktino:
I love how Palm's GUI and user experience is right in the middle of being like an iPhone and Android. Its pretty as an iphone but open like android device. Its an ideal OS but I think the hardware... Thats whole different story, Its so small.

[General Questions and Answers] GnatGoSplat:
Last year and a half for me:

iPhone 3GS 32GB White: Loved my original iPhone from 2008 (primary on TMO), but it couldn't run any new apps so I upgraded and the price was right. Sold it.

iPhone 3GS 16GB Black: I really did not like white. At all, so I bought this, but it was an unlockable baseband, ugh. Sold it.

HTC Desire CDMA: My backup phone (Touch Diamond on Verizon) was getting too old, so I thought I'd pick up something modern to replace it.

Droid Incredible AMOLED: Bought for my wife to use on PagePlus, to replace the original iPhone she had since 2008 on TMO. She loves it, hates iPhones.

Droid Incredible SLCD: Liked my wife's D-Inc better than the HTC Desire, but I liked the Desire's SLCD better than the AMOLED, so I got an SLCD D-Inc for myself.

Nexus One: I bought it to use on TMO, because after using the D-Inc, I didn't like my white iPhone 3GS at all. Not just because I don't like white phones, but because its low-res screen looked like crap in comparison. Love the N1, still have it, but plan to sell.

iPhone 4: My new primary on TMO, replaced the N1. Main reason for it, because I already have a D-Inc as a backup, my wife has a D-Inc, and we both decided variety=good, better not to have too many of the same thing, so iPhone it is. I do like it, love the Retina display, build quality, size, thinness, how it feels in the hand, smooth games, and I'm much happier with it now that I found a nice HTC Clock for it.

HTC Surround: Mostly got this because it was a good price (at the time) on the marketplace, and I'm already familiar with Android and iOS, I wanted to see what WP7 is like. I am actually more impressed with it than I expected to be. UI a bit boring, but the same apps on WP7 are WAY nicer than their iOS and Android counterparts. Only problem is, there aren't very many apps available in general.

Samsung Omnia II i920: WM6.5 phone, bad ESN, that I picked up cheap. Sort of got it in my head this would be a nice dev phone. I thought it would be cool to write an "Alien Dalvik" for WM6.5 so it could run Android apps. I just hate the thought of all the millions of "obsolete" WM6.5 phones out there and had the idea that a Dalvik VM for WM would be a very good form of recycling. Will probably end up selling as I seldom follow through on any idea I ever get.

MyTouch 3G: It was cheap, thought it could make a nice desk clock that auto-sets its time/date. It would have cost at least as much to buy an atomic desk clock that's always lit, and this could even display weather at the same time.

First i had a LAMEE chocolate (BL-40) from LG - never had a worse phone on my life. I wanted to try touchscreen and stuff, and it was almost free...

Then i switched to a blackberry. That was a total deception. EVERYBODY said that Blackberry was soooo good, i found it to be an average phone at best.

After that i switched to a Xperia X10, which came with a malfunction on the usb conector and tech support declared it as bad use. (never trust brazilian tech support - is the worse). I got it resoldered, and it worked for another 10 months. - I wanted a phone with android mostly because of its sync, to have all my services linked with my gmail account was awesome.

Android phones

HTC Hero: It was the first Linux based phone I deemed viable. Google backing was a big factor. Then discovered rooting and Custom Roms and H*ll will freeze over before I'm going to give that up. Seen other Linux based phones before, which were limited and business oriented, not what I wanted.

HTC Desire: Fallen in love with Android on HTC Hero, the Desire was a very welcome upgrade to the Hero hardware-wise. I'm eying the Sensation, but I'm not going to give up S-Off and custom partition schemes, so the Desire will have to do a few extra shifts :-)
