really?

Any Pictures you may upload?

Got the french Version too (wifi only), rooted but getting the message that it's up to date :rolleyes:

Did you update OTA or by motocast?
[Xoom General] lars2206:
I'm surprised nobody has uploaded any videos to YouTube showing how the Xoom 2 Media Edition performs with ICS - I'm curious to see any speed improvements, as well as teaks in the user interface.

BTW - mine is the MZ607 - bought from amazon.co.uk. Can't wait for the update :)
[Xoom General] _mocus:
I just don't believe that anyone really has it yet.

When I get an update I will perhaps make a short video

Used MB526 with Tapatalk 2 on cm10 nightly jelly bean
[Xoom General] KenSis:
I cannot either believe that somebody out there has already received the update and that nobody has done a short review of ICS on Xoom 2, here on the forum or on YouTube which would be better as I am also interested in seeing the performance. I am eagerly waiting for the update since browsing on my Xoom 2 ME MZ607 is really slow compared to my Razr maxx which is on ICS.

Two weeks have passed and the ICS rollout has still not reached the majority of the Xoom 2 users.
[Xoom General] mdcykkk9:
Reminds me last update that took them almost a month to be available for everyone
[Xoom General] Kirimis:
I think I am loosing hope. ICS is teribbly delayed, I do not know when it (the update) arrives if it will be upgraded succesfully (or get the exlamation mark), and we should be really talking about Jelly Bean....not ICS.

Anyway... Galaxy Note 10.1 is really nice, though it lacks the build quality of Moto. Sammy will definately get my money next time. At least they have a little more respect for the customers money.
[Xoom General] matticala:
Just flashed 281.8 through RSD Lite. It's still 3.2.2 but feels MUCH BETTER than previous releases... anyway, almost immediately after first boot I got ICS update notification. It's downloading...

Bye bye TIM branding, much welcome EU Retail Ice Cream Sandwitch. :laugh:
[Xoom General] lucasarran:
Yes that is the current version.
[Xoom General] mdcykkk9:
The latest update is 1.6.0_268.4 not .6 for most of us. You have a newer version because you have the 3g version of xoom 2.
[Xoom General] Syphon Filter:
I've just got a Xoom2 and seem to be having problems getting the 3.2.2 update.

How can I manually force an update?
[Xoom General] qdh1502:
Hi,

I'm in France and bought the Xoom 2 ME. My build 1.6.0_218.3-MZ607 ,current version 3.2.

I cannot find the update of 3.2.2 for my tablet. It say that I have the lastest version ...

I try another Xoom 2 ME in Darty (France) with the same build and it found the update.

How can I update manually my tablet ?
[Xoom General] mdcykkk9:
Lot's of us have the same question :confused:
[Xoom General] woohoo70:
i have ordered the 3g xoom 2 here in Australia should have it on Thursday or Friday i will post what version it running when i receive it
[Xoom General] Casey Rain:
just bought a x2ME here in the uk...... no update yet but the tablet is locking up a couple times a day...... does the update fix that?
[Xoom General] mdcykkk9:
I had the same issues. Factory Resetting the device through Android recovery fix it
[Xoom General] qdh1502:
Anyone can answer my question please ?

My Xoom 2 ME build 1.6.0_218.3-MZ607, current version 3.2 => no update

I try another (at Darty http://www.darty.com/) with same build, same version => update found ...

Is there any difference from Nomvember product serie and February serie ???

Any way to dowload the update manually ?

Thank you
[Xoom General] big ach:
Yes it's different...

Swype is more stable

Charging while tablet is off

Brightness bug is no more

Some better app compatability

Sorry dunno if there is a way to do a manual install

I requested motorola support the new firmware file to update through android recovery and they told me that i have to wait until my tablet receive the ota update. :mad:
[Xoom General] DiamondGeeza:
I am also still waiting on the update, After 3 emails from motorola support, one of them asking me to factory reset all I ended up with was you will have to wait for the update. That was the 24th of Feb.

Mine shows GAS_EMEA_UCATBLT1WIRTCOREEU_P004 as firmware configuration version might this be common to those of us waiting? my tab is rooted.
[Xoom General] Vanpeebles:
I was having all the common issues - freezing, reboots etc. Every single day! Ever since I rooted my xoom 2 last week removed all bloatware & crap apps changed my kernel govnor with setcpu to ondemand from moto, I have not had any issues with anything since
[Xoom General] aajohn:
Thanks

Having rooted by Xoom 2 ME as well I'll check out your tip.:D
[Xoom General] mdcykkk9:
i formated through android recovery and then rooted and made few changes you did and most off the problems that had with my tablet gone ...
[Xoom General] andario:
No luck with the updates here, either.

I live in Spain, and my UK purchased Xoom 10.1", Build Number 1.6.0_218.3-MZ615 keeps saying it´s "up to date".

Do you guys think my Spanish IP could have something to do with it? (The Xoom 2 being released later in Spain than in the UK, of course...)
[Xoom General] woohoo70:
ok got it on friday had time to play around with and loving it my build number is 3.2.2 mz616
[Xoom General] Dry.doc:
I have not yet recieved the update either, and I have a UK Xoom 2 stateside.

I just got off moto chat and was also told I would have to wait for the OTA update.

That being said, she did say that it is not region specific, so hopefully that answers Andario's question. She sated that I would still receive the update no matter where I was If I had an internet connection.

I guess we just play the waiting game....
[Xoom General] crisisinthecity:
Try going into apps. All apps and find "Google services framework". Force stop it. Then clear data. Shut down and restart. Now check for updates.
[Xoom General] andario:
Thanks mate. I actually took the time to find out how to change my IP, and did not work either with a UK address, so I guess we will have to wait.

I´ve just done this exactly as you said, and did not work either. Did it work for you?
[Xoom General] ezekionokia:
I have ICS since the 2nd of september and to be honest I couldn't be bothered with a review because I'm too busy working the bytes of my tablet.

The ICS release is now using the full power of the h/w and I experienced no lag, crashes and so on.

The system font is ugly as hell, multitasking is epic, screenshot ability without having to download the internet and be the brother of Linus Torvals is a plus.

Other that that, there's nothing really spectacular. The ICS version has been reviewed on the internet over and over, on motorola you also get updated bloatware to go with it.

Next step root it so as to freeze the hell out of all the bloatware.
[Xoom General] KenSis:
Thank you for you reply. I am happy to hear that you are satisfied with ics on your xoom 2.

After carful consideration of ICS running on my mz616 Australia yes it is smoother, yes it multitasks much better, yes it looks slightly better... But the fact is.... No its not Jellybean... Sure having a tab of this nature has its advantages with its size but not the usability a phone with JB has. Apart from screen size.

So alas as of yesterday i have sold my xoom and it ships out tomorrow. Saying that this will be my last post using the xoom.

Peace out my under supported fellows. Hope that bootloader finally gets unlocked for you :D :thumbup:
[Xoom General] Jabba_4:
Hello matticala, since we have the same model/version (TIM) I would like to know if, after the flash and the update, you have noticed the same functions about the sd slot and the usb using an otg cable. Since some devices are not able to use the SD slot (it's physically absent) and if I don't remember wrong the xyboard is not able to use the OTG cable. I would avoid to do the flash/upgrade and then discover that both SDcard and usb are not fully implemented...

Many thanks.

Same here I also have the MZ607.NonEFIGSRetail.en.EU version and still nothing new. I bought the RAZR MAXX a week ago and it is also a NonEFIGSRetail.en.EU version, but after starting it up for the first time the ICS update was there waiting for me. I got to admit though that that the Razr is not as fast as the SG2 that I sold and the camera appears to be crap compared to the galaxy. However I love the design and the sturdiness of the Razr.

The Guide is actually only for the MZ616, because kent managed to get a fastboot file for it. As soon as there are more fastboot files available and ONLY! if something is available for your device, you may use this guide to flash yours as the only difference will be the flash file itself.

[Xoom General] lars2206:
From which countries are you receiving the update and where did you buy the tablet? Just curious :)
[Xoom General] jevdroid:
I got the update for my Xoom 2 ME offered yesterday (located in the Netherlands, bought it from Dixons). Yippee! Or so I thought. It downloaded and started updating when all of a sudden: BOOM! All that's left is a green Android-man with a triangle in the middle. Update failed. Checking it, I found the update stopped because it wanted to patch one of the delivered stock apps that I removed. Stupid thing won't update the system without it.

I panicked. Reset the unit completely. Wiped cache & data. Now it is back on 3.2.2, but no update offered. I did manage to recover most (if not all) stock apps from a backup, but since I did not save the update.zip file I guess I'll have to wait for the next time it shows.

So, a quick question to those that received the update for MZ607.NonEFIGSRetail.en.EU: can you check your cache directories for an update.zip? If you've got it, can you make it available to the rest of us?
[Xoom General] Fishmoose:
I can check in six hours when I get home. I don't have root though, is it needed to access cache?
[Xoom General] jevdroid:
Thanks for checking. Don't know if you need root, might be. I noticed it downloaded through the regular mechanism first, than copied. So if you can't find the cache directory, it may be there's a copy in /sdcard/Download or something similar. I'll be much obliged to you! :fingers-crossed:
[Xoom General] zloytim:
that's file will be erased after updating :(
[Xoom General] Fishmoose:
Sorry, I can't seem to access cache without root. Download folder is empty. I think zloytim is right, cache is wiped after reboot anyway. Have you tried forcing update via 'About tablet' or MotoCast?

[Xoom General] nabuhonodozor:
Yes it sould fix this issue. Its proppably the cpu governor issue. You can fix it by rooting your xoom and using ie. Setcpu to switch to something else.

I normally do not act like a hysterical updater, but I'm starting to piss me off with this strange motorola updates policy that no one understands. No response to a pattern and do not know what to expect.

And the guy comments :) "my device still says it's up to date !"

But if you will go to that web site on the bottom is guestion:

[Xoom General] nabuhonodozor:
I bought first motorola droid and, after two years beeing cheated by moto support, I told to myself (and all around me I could think of :rolleyes: ) never again moto. Month or two ago I bought two xooms 2 ME because of of very low price (two umts devices in price of one) . I said to myself : "hey, only donkey wont change its mind!"

Now I am sure. Nothing have changed in moto department. You buy their device an you should know that bootloader is locked and there will be no updates whats so ever.

If any, you can wait until the kingdom come.

I am not responsible if anything happend to your device. Don't blame me for frying your Tablet ￼

Go to http://code.google.com/p/opptimizer/ to get the modules, for more information and support the developer ....

quick download link http://code.google.com/p/opptimizer/downloads/detail?name=mo_simp_1.5_xyboard-signed.zip&can=2&q=

Unzip the modules

Put them in your /sdcard directory (or anywhere you want)

You need to root your device and download terminal emulator from play store

In terminal emulator:

su (grant root access to terminal )

mount -o rw,remount /system

<<<< copy modules>>>>

cp /sdcard/symsearch.ko /system/lib/modules/

cp /sdcard/overclock.ko /system/lib/modules/

<<<<install loadable kernel module>>>>

insmod /system/lib/modules/symsearch.ko

insmod /system/lib/modules/overclock.ko

mount -o ro,remount /system

<<<<Modules are now installed- you only have to do this one time>>>>

To overclock the cpu in terminal (you don't need to do that. You can download shell script and run it)

echo 5 1350000000 1390000 > /proc/overclock/mpu_opps

1350000000 is for frequency and 1390000 for Voltage

Motorola VSEL Values:

63 = 1400000 this the maximum value

62 = 1390000

61 = 1380000

60 = 1370000

59 = 1360000

58 = 1350000

Every device can oveclock and be stable in deferent values . Mine is not stable over 1.36. Try and post your resault

To overclock the gpu in terminal

echo 384000000 > /proc/overclock/gpu_opps

valid values for GPU Frequency 256000000, 307200000, 384000000

Every time you reboot the device Overclock settings are lost ...

Download this shell script and put it in /sdcard/ directory: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/152184/oc.sh

In terminal emulator, you can run the script every time you want to overclock the device:

sh /sdcard/oc.sh

You can edit the script with other values to find the best for your device
