[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kandroid:
People, I just got a refurbished XOOM a few days back. This is the WiFi only US model. I checked the status, and it says its still on 3.2. I see that there should be atleast 2 OTA updates for this - one to 3.2.1 and one to 4.0.3. But when I check for system updates, I keep getting this "You system is up to date!" message. I connected it to WiFi and let it sit for a couple of days now, and still no updates. Am I doing something wrong? Anyone is this same situation? A search did not turn up anything on the forums nor on google.

Any help would be much appreciated.

I would prefer not to root it for atleast the first 90 days while it is still in warranty.:D

Current system info:

Model Number : MZ604

Android Version : 3.2

Firmware : GAS_EMEA_USAHUBLWFRTDACH_P009

Build number: H.6.6-23

Thanks

Mine is the same. 1saleaday.com? Did you have a strange plug adapter you had to use? I dont think we got the US version.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theherodrownd:
I had similar problem I just rooted and updated manually. Since this is a developer tablet Motorola provides all the software to restore back to stock if you need a warranty replacement.

I follow the instructions in the thread above! Worked perfectly.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kandroid:
Yep. 1saleaday.com

I got the micro USB cable with it. I think you might have gotten the OTG cable (Micro USB Host Cable) instead.

I thought I was getting the US version!. When I powered it on for the first time, the language was in German. I just assumed that the language got changed by accident.

The funny part is, I am not able to find this build H.6.6.23 on the motorola page (http://developer.motorola.com/products/software/). So how do we figure out which version this is?

Thanks. But how would I know which version I have? As mentioned ^, H.6.6.23 is no where to be found? Was your build the same? Or was it different?

I wanted to get the XOOM so I can get the official version of ICS, but it looks like that's not going to happen :mad:
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kandroid:
Were you on the same 6.6-23 build? I don't see this build listed on that thread? My only concern is, if I do need to go back to the stock ROM, I won't be able to, as this build is nowhere to be found.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thevumeister:
Mine is H6.6.23. So if you follow the instructions you'll be fine! It's very straight forward instructions.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kandroid:
Thanks! I'll give it a shot.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kandroid:
For anyone wondering, 6.6.23 build is for Retail Germany. The progression of updates is as follows:

6.2.351 (3.0.1) > 6.4.20.1 (3.1) > 6.6.23 (3.2)

So, if you do need to go back to the original stock, it would be 6.2.351
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] acoleman.mobile:
This is great news. I am also having an issue with my xoom not charging, it says charging and then says to connect to charger and it's discharging while i use it plugged in. Is this normal?

---------- Post added at 10:37 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:08 AM ----------

I have the normal usb cable, it's the power adapter that's odd. It's the same plug as something like a heave duty air conditioner or something 220watt, and it has an adapter to make it plug into a normal outlet.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rubber guard:
I also got the 1saleaday xoom and had the same h 2.6.6-23 build

I followed the instructions posted in the thread about about how to GED-ify your xoom and it will revert back to US 3.2 then it will see an update and keep updating you (i had like 5 total) all the way up to iml77 build aka ICS

---------- Post added at 04:05 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:55 PM ----------

what you have is a european outlet, with a converter to match US outlets. my dad always travels with a US>euro converter.

For the driver issue, which version did you download? 32 bit or 64 bit? And what version is your OS?

Please Help

I like many also purchased the moto xoom from 1saleaday which I received today but was very disappointed to see it is NOT the US version so I am running into the same problem of not being able to update to ICS! The instructions seem simple but it is not something I feel comfortable doing on my own.. Can someone please post a video on youtube showing step by step how to do this (PLEASE) I am very new to this all and dont want to ruin my device.. not interested in having the device rooted with custom roms or anything like that, I just want the official ICS release. Also for anyone reading this if you reside in the orange county, ca. area and know anyone who is HONEST and REPUTABLE who can to do this for me for free or small fee please let me know. Thank You
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rubber guard:
while you would have no reason to trust most people on here, there are money on here who could do this for you (or walk/talk you through). I dont have a camera that would allow me to do a walk-through for you, but someone might (or it might already exist)
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kandroid:
I think you might be better off sticking to Honeycomb for now, until Google and Motorola start pushing ICS officially to other versions. Even though the instructions seem simple, things can go wrong, especially if you have never done this before. This is just a word of caution.

If you really want to do this, I would suggest reading up on setting up adb access on your pc first. This would include - installing the proper motorola drivers, getting your pc to recognize your xoom when you connect it, and getting adb to see your device. Since this does not make any changes to your xoom, you should be ok if something doesn't work as intended.

Once you have this first part setup, then you can venture on to the next parts. The most critical thing is to find instructions that are specific to your device and version, and to stop doing what you are doing if the result of a step doesn't exactly match with the instructions.

I'm sure someone can walk you through the complete process, but if you are not comfortable doing it, you'd be better off letting someone else do it for you, rather than follow instructions over phone or watching a video.

Let me know if you have any other questions.

After the rom, did you install any suspicious app through the market or by offline?

The reason why I'm asking is, these days I've seen some suspicious apps something like MP3 downloading apps or some other apps originated from CN.

I have some experience receiving SMS but not email. Usually, there's nothing to do from your phone's email client (gmail, email, or any pop3 emails). You need to visit the your email provider's website using your account and check if you are able to categorize the received email as spam.

Even though Final Fantasy 1 wasn't released in English by Square Enix it is running on Android in English so I know getting Chaos rings 2 to run in English is possible.

Better Battery Life

In stock gingerbread I usually got 1 1/2 day of life with 2-3 hours of screen on. With CheckROM v6 I got around 2 days with 4 hours of screen on. Now with ICS and CF-root I got with the first full charge 1 1/2 day with 5:30 hours of screen on!

I froze all the junk that comes with the ROM, I only have a partial wakelock AudioOut_1 that is driving crazy. So far I'm quite happy with it.

I'm not having any real battery issues myself, but since quite a few people report it I decided to call Samsung and ask if they will provide a rollback to 2.3.5 or what they could do to alleviate the issue.

And the answer was, as a technician had told, to solve the battery issue I should do the following:

1.) Charge the mobile to 100%

2.) Let the device drain battery as "normal" until around 9%

3.) Then open applications that drain battery fast until the phone shuts off

4.) With the phone in off-mode and drained recharge it to 100%, and do not turn on the phone at all during this time

5.) Turn on phone, and the battery life should be back to normal

Seriously, this was the official answer I got from Samsung support technician. Sounds like some old woman's advice, but hey if anyone with battery issue want to try then why not. At any rate it can't hurt :)

so I called Verizon Wireless today to complain about my phone..

me - my phone reboots on it's own, when are we suppose to get update for it already? isn't that a google phone and we suppose to get updates directly from google? and what's the hold up anyway?

verizon - updates will come from samsung and not google and we have no information on that

me - maybe you can contact samsung on my behalf and inquire about update?

verizon - ok, please hold ...

few minutes passes by...

verizon - thank you for holding blah blah blah, i just got off the phone from samsung they said check samsung website regularly, they'll announce it there, by that time your phone will receive update.

what a waste of time!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Sleuth255:
You were fed a total line. Your phone's version of Android is "mysid" which is directly updated by Google. However all updates do need final approval from Verizon.

In fact, to verify this yourself, download the free "GN Official Update Checker" from the marketplace (I refuse to say "google play store" fttb) and run it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] efrant:
That "official" update checker is nothing more than a user-created app that checks if your device is running yakju or mysid and, if so tells you your device is updated by Google, and if on another build, it says its not updated by Google. Not even close to being official.

No one knows if non-yakju or non-mysid builds are updated by Google or not. It is just speculation. What we do know is that all updates for ALL builds are pushed from Google's servers.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] a1exus:
i just wish they push update already, so that everyone is start being really happy with that phone, my co-worker just updated his to 4.0.4 and extremely happy with it now, which is great! if by end of this month they wont release anything i'm going to update "leaked" version of 4.0.4 myself!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] a1exus:
i ran "GN Official Update Checker" and it said exactly what you said.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] a1exus:
what's the difference between one and another?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Sleuth255:
@efrant: Well, I never said it was the official update checker either, only that it was named the "GN official update checker"

However, its author does keep up with the official status as shown on the androidcentral writeup here (note what it says about mysid in the photo and the clarification posted later).

@OP once you've checked your build with the above app, feel free to find the actual official answer to your question from Jean-Baptiste Queru who is a Software Engineer at Google's Android Open-Source Project.

A link to his answer on Google groups is located here

@efrant: Hopefully this is official enough for you too. At least the AOSP status is being confirmed for yakju and mysid and the supposition by Jean is that this implies direct updates too. ;)

---------- Post added at 02:19 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:17 AM ----------

yakju is the official GSM build for the GNex. Its variants are yakjuXX where XX is two additional lowercase characters.

mysid is the official LTE build for the GNex. I don't believe it has variants.
