Well I see now, that sucks. I was so happy for a minute now all of my dreams shattered lol. thanks for the reply btw.
[Xoom General] speedyr6:
Since 4.0.4 ota you can't use stock recovery to flash an OTA update that you download to SD card. The only work around I know of is unlock then flash recovery then flash ota. No need for root, just unlock and CWM recovery.
[Xoom General] hooman64:
one noob question tho, after I flashed CWM and update, I'll still have CWM recovery instead of stock android recovery right? does that keep xoom from getting future OTAs?
[Xoom General] jediman:
More importantly, what about if you want to re-lock the xoom?
[Xoom General] Lothaen:
You don't need to OEM lock... I never have and got ICS updates...
[Xoom General] jediman:
No, you're right you do not NEED to, HOWEVER, some of us might like to, and if all options can be covered, then they should be :)
[Xoom General] SamXp:
Finally flashing the update! After unlocking and installing EOS R6 Recovery, it kept just going into the standard Android Recovery. I finally reflashed the img in fastboot and rebooted and got EOS Recovery to come up.

Nice! I am 4.1.1 now!
[Xoom General] UserX10:
Got the same error.

I´m also now on 4.0.4 and after trying to flash the Status 7 Error...:-/
[Xoom General] Lothaen:
Two options

Wait for OTA to come properly

Or flash EOS recovery then apply the ota

It will reinstall the stock recovery
[Xoom General] UserX10:
I have flashed the EOS recovery and trying to install the update.zip but the error 7 appears...
[Xoom General] jediman:
BUT doesn't allow you to re-lock,

Oh screw it. RE-flashin via EOS and then giving the EOS JB a try.
[Xoom General] rabcyn:
I tried this, and it didn't work. The xoom will fail to boot saying something along the lines of "Failed to boot LNX 0x0004".

The only way to get a oem locked 100% stock is to wait for the OTA to hit, AFAIK.
[Xoom General] for3cas7:
Yeap I can confirm the error message. "Failed to boot LNX 0x0004"

DO NOT RE-LOCK

If you do then simply use OEM Unlock again..

Worked for me..

Had a Twitchy Bum time there for a minute though :)
[Xoom General] Lothaen:
Ref lash recovery. I bet it didn't take first time
[Xoom General] Stillkrazy:
Did a system update check about an hour ago and nothing. Using the tip a few pages back (force stop Google Service Framework, clear data) I got the 4.1.1 OTA on my second try.

Everything updated smoothly and i'm enjoying 4.1.1 :)
[Xoom General] Lothaen:
If you flash back the full stock honeycomb imgs I bet you can relock?

I though I would leave unlocked until I need the above for some reason :P
[Xoom General] neilalexander:
Got the OTA update earlier on this afternoon, seamless install and much more responsive than Ice Cream Sandwich. (Didn't even realise it had been released on the Xoom yet - it just popped up whilst I was browsing Google Reader in the garden earlier!)
[Xoom General] hooman64:
well I'm not on any custom roms yet. but from what I learned either Google or Moto disabled installing from USB drives. I'm not sure if your problem falls under that category. but I read somewhere else that the same error occurs if you try to update to the latest version but you aren't currently on a correct rom/build. so if I were you I'd first double check my rom/build. if that didn't help. try getting in touch with a senior. I'm sorry if I couldn't be much of a help.
[Xoom General] raider1970:
Stuck?

How long does the install take? Mine has been stuck of Patching boot image for about 10 minutes!

Nevermind.......I shut it down and reinstalled, finished installing, rebooted to JB goodness!!!
[Xoom General] baz2a:
via ssmorris = Yeah, this is how I just did it for my Wifi Only Version.

1. Download the OP's google link for the new JB Update (link)

2. Rename it to update.zip

3. Place the update.zip on the internal storage root directory of your xoom

4. Using EOS Recovery (CWM based) R6 recovery (installation instructions), reboot into Recovery Mode and perform an "install zip sd card"

5. Choose the option for "apply /sdcard/update.zip"

6. After installation is complete, choose the reboot option and enjoy the new JB update

I can confirm that this worked well to update my wi-fi unlocked, stock, non rooted Xoom to 4.1.1. I installed the softkey version of EOS recovery R6 and everything updated well.

Rooted version up in Android Development

Whereas mine failed with error 7 on the OTA, stachre's rooted stock has run through 100%

Edit: for some reason, the charge led doesn't seem to be active any more when I plug it into my speaker dock. The display says it's charging, but no led.
[Xoom General] ntron1:
The LED only turns on when the device is powered down.
[Xoom General] alpine101:
That's different behaviour from ICS then, because that used to be green when charging on the dock, and turn white when fully charged. It now goes white, but only when the system is fully powered off, even if it's charging.

Can anyone confirm the boot animation has NOT changed with the Jelly Bean update and is the SAME as ICS?
[Xoom General] ShonkUK:
it looks the same but the crc is different i think
[Xoom General] gmanunited:
I still get Status 7 error. I guess I will have to wait for OTA....
[Xoom General] oldblue910:
Is the boot animation for the stock ROM the multi colored X or is it the alternate animation with the lines?
[Xoom General] edeseven:
Does anyone knows which is the latest Tiamat kernel available?

I'm currently on 3.0.24 gpuoc, otherwise stock 4.1.1 from OTA

Anyone on teameos nightlies can check on about tablet page and see which is the latest kernel please?

Many thanks :good:
[Xoom General] Winesnob:
Is there a method to boot into a custom recovery without flashing it through fast boot? I've done this on a GNex using a toolkit, but never directly through fast boot commands. This would leave stock recovery intact to allow manually flashing the zip without error.
[Xoom General] DsturbD:
ok, what i did was to return everything to stock (yes i know, but i had nothing on it anyway so why not) following the steps in this thread

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1163523

then going through all the updates to get to 4.0.4

then i copied the zip file from the OP to my internal sd card and flashed EOS recovery r6

booted into recovery and flashed the zip like any other zip file and rebooted, now on 4.1.1

the boot animation is the same as ICS (maybe a bit different but basically the same). no jelly bean wallpapers either

wondering if there will be changes to the official OTA that wont be in this soak test release?
[Xoom General] Lothaen:
Same ICS boot anim for me
[Xoom General] Lothaen:
Neither. It's the ICS boot
[Xoom General] Lothaen:
How come this thread didn't hit the front page... http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1795888 this thread did with far less information than this thread has :s

Oh well. The main thing is the OTA is out there
[Xoom General] qwertyoscar:
Got OTA today.

the external SD card behaves different to ICS

in ICS and Honeycomb, the sdcard is named as "external" when check using AndroZip and File Manager HD

and was able to written in using File Manager HD (but not able to delete files)

But in JB, the card is named "sdcard1" with permission dr-

cannot write files in even using File Manager HD

And like before, cannot delete files, so it becomes read-only now :(

Kind of a bummer
[Xoom General] satterje:
Endless Reboots after doing this method?

Anyone have endless re-boots after this? I have cleared the cache, Dalvik, and factory reset. No luck.:confused:
[Xoom General] ghodzilla5150:

[Xoom General] wantbluetooth:
After trying 10x, it really works! Thank you~
[Xoom General] Lothaen:
is it the assert_space_error like detailed a few times in this thread already? whereby we suggest either waiting for the OTA to come down, or fastboot oem unlock + fastboot flash recovery eos-recoveryv6.img and then flash via sdcard or internal storage? :)
[Xoom General] Pitrick:
Is there something I'm missing. When you guys say flash EOS Recovery and then reboot into recovery. How do you do that?

Because I flashed the EOS Recovery from fastboot but then if I reboot my xoom and use adb reboot recovery the old recovery is back again.

It doesn't stick. Is there a way from fastboot to directly boot into recovery? Or from the boot screen to go into recovery instead of fastboot?

Thanks

---------- Post added at 07:06 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:53 AM ----------

Never mind. It worked using the EOS Recovery method..just need to make sure you

fastboot flash recovery therecovery.img then

fastboot reboot and push the volume down button 2-3 seconds after the motorola logo to go into recovery and flash from there...

If you leave it boot completely you will need to redo the flashing of the recovery because it doesnt stick.
[Xoom General] phuxnpro:
I did the Settings/Apps/ALL/Google Services Framework/Force stop/Clear data & cache/Retry update and it worked after about 6 hours of doing it 5x an hour. It decided to do it while i was in my local grocery store teatherd to my phone.
[Xoom General] oldblue910:
Well that sucks! haha
[Xoom General] MetalMessiah78:
For all of you people getting an error message while flashing the update, you MUST be 100% stock. In my case, I had flashed the rom in the thread below when ICS dropped, as it said it was stock, but I kept on getting the same error as everyone else.

[UPDATE][ICS]Stock Android 4.0.4 IMM76, Root, via CWM Recovery (US Wi-Fi MZ604)

The rom in that thread has a modified bootloader, and therefore is not stock. If you are running that rom, then it would probably be best for you to flash [UPDATE][JB]Stock Android 4.1.1 JRO03H, Root, via CWM Recovery (US Wi-Fi MZ604) as that also has the modified bootloader.

For those having problems with their recovery not "sticking" go to /system/ and delete or rename recovery-from-boot.p. That is what causes the stock recovery to be reflashed on every reboot and wipes your custom recovery.
[Xoom General] rubejb:
Thanks! I think that the rooted JB ROM is exactly what I was looking for!

Now to get to backing up my apps.
[Xoom General] JoTeC:
I wonder why some Xooms can get this to work and others cannot. I have tried this for 2 days, at least 50 times and can not get this to work. I guess the public release will be in a few days given the ICS soak test to public release history but I am still intrigued why this works on some devices and not others... Oh well.... :eek:
[Xoom General] Lothaen:
It's a mystery. Could be servers are busy I guess. Or just that it is only servicing particular range of android ids?

I guess only google know.

As mentioned above too its happened to me before wher you try for hours. Go out and it then says update is available on its own
[Xoom General] rmm989:
yes, while in the reboot cycle, I kept it hooked up to the usb and flashed recovery again. The problem only happened with the "plain" eos recovery, and I was successful with the switfkey recovery file instead.

I also had a status 7 error, but that resolved when I didn't rename the zip file to update.zip and just left it as google named it

edit - I was also 100% stock but was still getting that status 7 error.
[Xoom General] JoTeC:
I was thinking a MAC ID range. First I thought maybe those that did have success were somehow registered with MFN but looking at the low post count from those users, I doubt they were registered. Anyway, I'm tired of hitting that check update button. I'm off to Indianapolis in an hour so I'll try it there...
[Xoom General] treyatl2006:
Finally got the new update after clearing Google service framework and pressing update at least 50 times... lol typing on this forums is much improved!

Just got mine after clearing out my Google framework one time. Boy that was easy.
[Xoom General] geetarman:
I have been clearing the google framework to try and get the JB update notstop last night and today and nothing.

It may just be a fluke but i just got the update. I did a factory reset, then the tablet automatically checked for an update and said it was up to date. Then i cleared the frame work and manually chose to check for updates and BAM - got the update.

I'm in the US. (mississippi to be exact) and I am not part of the soak test.

Hopefully this will work for some others.
[Xoom General] JoTeC:
Booted my Xoom in Indianapolis and the update was there... Running JB and the world is round again! :cowboy:
[Xoom General] jonmanson:
Same for me, I did a factory reset then got the bean update.
[Xoom General] treyatl2006:

Total success. After reset, I had to clear the framework twice, and the update popped. :victory:

Stuck on Boot Animation after JB OTA

SO finally received my OTA notification ..downloaded and hit the Install and restart button and WTF Im now stuck on the boot animation screen .

Any suggestions/advise on what I should do ?? Im really bummed out and really at a lost here.

[Xoom General] chrisjcks:
Isn't the 3.x kernel in jelly bean for the Nexus 7 only because that's nvidias tegra 3 latest kernel?

Tegra 2 that's in the xoom still has 2.6.
[Xoom General] fenixjr:
there's a updated file for jelly bean that's been floating around. I know its on my sd card but i cant get it off atm.

it's basically labeled the same thing just something like "jb-update" is appended to it.
[Xoom General] Tito2007:
ok,,after many tries i finally figured a way to get to stock rooted Jb with the Ota...it was a long process but i was able to do it. and i went about this way because for whatever reason my xoom did not like the rooted jb (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1796335) and after i flashed it many times it would never stick and i would keep only having stock 4.0.4 so i tried the following below.

step 1. i re flashed the xoom stock images HC 3.0

step 2. update the xoom from 3.0 to 4.0.4 using the over the air updates.

step 3. fastboot flash the eos r6 recovery while still on 4.0.4

step 4 create a nandroid of the stock 4.0.4 system

step 5. install the Universal Xoom root zip

step 6. log into google account to have access to market

step 7 update superuser app, download ota rootkeeper

step 8 use ota and create a copy of su, then click temp unroot

IMPORTANT

make sure that you have a copy of the jelly bean ota on your internal sd(http://xdaforums.com/show....php?t=1736634)

step 9 turn off xoom, then boot into eos recovery

NEXT FEW STEPS ARE CRUCIAL

step 10 choose advance restore from internal (not regular restore option) and select the nandroid of the stock 4.0.4

step 11 select the option to restore only the boot.img

step 12 now install the JB Ota ( when it boots you will lose the eos reovery and the stock recovery will be flashed back,, so you can always fastboot flash back the eos recovery, just make sure to delete the recovery boot.p file in the system folder using root explorer or something similar.)

step 13 once you have flashed the JB ota, boot back into android, open the ota rootkeeper app and restore the su,, then use titanium backup or some other root app to verify that you have root.

optional step 14 after verifying that you do indeed have root access perform a factory wipe so you can start fresh. that's what i did and all was good.

hope that helps some people.

edit : if you are on a stock 4.0.4 than you can continue from step 3 as basically you need to be there in order to follow the rest.
[Xoom General] AlphaNoble:
Anybody else surprised to see the ICS boot animation and the ICS browser still in the app tray? Especially after Google said that Chrome would be the new default android browser.

Also anybody notice any project butter improvements? Mine feels about the same as 4.0.4 but I have noticed some animations that are new.
[Xoom General] Rblacula:
I knew about Chrome because it's only baked in on the Nexus 7 (not even on the GNex). The ICS boot animation surprised me, but it makes sense since the new boot animation is the Nexus symbol and the Xoom isn't an "official" nexus device. I just wish they would've given us that cool boot logo the N7s from I/O had before the latest OTA gave it the same boring one as the GSM GNex 4.1.1 OTA.
[Xoom General] zeeza57:
If u want the update that's nice. I didn't look for it the OTA was sent to my Wi-fi zoom. Now I have a useless stuck in boot loop paperweight. Thanks for no jellybean greatness here, no zoom greatness either.
[Xoom General] dizzy33:
I could received the 4.1.1 update message on my Xoom when I did the framework trick. But I have a problem : after the update has been downloaded, I push the install button, then the Xoom reboots and get stucks on a picture with the Android robot down with a red logo on it ...

If I reboot the Xoom it will then run and come back to ICS ...

My Xoom is a rooted GEDified one, living in France, I flashed the stock U.S. 4.04 ROM. To do that I put my Xoom in stock U.S. Honeycomb and then waited for the Xoom to auto-update up to 4.04. So all OTA updates worked fine since Honeycomb.

I tried two times the 4.1.1 update but still failing, and I don't know why ...

Does anyone have a clue of what may be my problem ?

EDIT : I also tried unrooting my Xoom with Rootkeeper, but the 4.1.1 upgrade is still failing with the Android robot down picture after reboot ... Is there anyway to check the logs somewhere to see why the upgrade crashed ?

thanks !
[Xoom General] Geeba:
Hmmm still no JB in the UK on stock US ICS Wifi Xoom :confused:
[Xoom General] dizzy33:
That's a nightmare for me !!! I flashed back the stock recovery thinking it may have been the problem. Then the installation of 4.1.1 was working longer but then crashed again ... So I managed to re-lock my Xoom with "fastboot oem lock", but when my Xoom rebooted it was stuck on this error message : "failed image lnx 0x0002". So then I re-unlock my Xoom (fastboot oem unlock), now my Xoom is working again in 4.04, but I lost all my data ...

So as I guess 4.1.1 OTA install does fail because my device is unlocked, I would like to know how to re-lock it without getting the error "failed image lnx 0x0002" ... Can anyone help me ?
[Xoom General] oyeeeeeeee:
Oh Yes!!!!!!

Android Update (Android 4.1.1) :D

Also got some Jelly Bean goodies in Sweden :D

[Xoom General] Geeba:
How long ago? was it today?
[Xoom General] Winesnob:
For some reason the sound search widget wasn't included in the OTA. You can download the apk from http://androidspin.com/2012/07/02/g...-now-available-for-download-no-root-required/ and install. The widget will show up in the app drawer and can be placed on a home screen. Works.
[Xoom General] dizzy33:
So finally the only solution I found was to revert to stock Honeycomb and then relock bootloader as I could not relock it running ICS ...

Here is a tutorial I made for GEDified people :

[Xoom General] oldblue910:
Between no JB boot animation and wallpapers and the missing Google Sound Search widget, it sounds like this JB OTA for the Xoom is really kind-of half-assed.

[Xoom General] hkk:
It seems everyone in the world seems to be getting the update, except me :(

Clearing Google Services Framework doesn't help, even after about 20 times. Any others not seeing the update?
[Xoom General] Theme Ishere:
He is the type of person who says what he thinks. And, sadly, I think he is right. I am a bit disappointed as well.

I reckon you love your xoom, and that's ok (I am quite fond of mine as well), but all in all there are some things missing that should have been included.
[Xoom General] trevagreene:
Just got the update. Im in Australia.
[Xoom General] donmb80:
Keep in mind if you don't use a data plan on your VZW Xoom you can still flash a wifi ROM and have jellybean!
[Xoom General] Outcome:
Actually, according to the presentation, the stock rom on the Nexus 7 they showed runs what appears to be phone mode due to its portrait orientation and launcher, however they clearly state that the apps are running in tablet mode (Google +, Gmail, etc). So the fear that I have is that they have abandoned the honeycomb look of the tablet launcher for a more unified experience across the board.
[Xoom General] Ghost-of-the-Sun:
This.

If you are posting on xda you shouldnt worry about your 3g/4g xoom update. Team EOS will take care of it for you and in the meantime you can use a wifi rom.
[Xoom General] oldblue910:
And for those of us who don't like EOS or any of the custom ROMs available for the Xoom?
[Xoom General] albundy2010:
Then you wait for moto/Verizon to update it.
[Xoom General] gothickah0:

[Xoom General] donmb80:
Yeah that's what I was getting at. I had 10 month old laying on me and was being quick
[Xoom General] oldblue910:
Yeah, I stand corrected. There are actually three different UI modes that you can put Jelly Bean into. A guy on another thread verified it using the SDK build. There's normal phone mode for small screens, then there's the intermediate mode for 7" screens (which is the default mode for the Nexus 7) which looks like phone mode but allows apps to run in tablet mode, and then there's the version for large screens that will give you the full-on tablet mode akin to what we see on the Xoom. Fine by me! As long as they're not doing away with that full-blown tablet mode, have at it!
[Xoom General] Casey Rain:
Yes, I know that. I'm not upset that the original Xoom is getting Jelly Bean, that's great that it is. I'm upset that Motorola has taken so long to get ICS on the Xoom 2. There's simply no excuse, and had I known it would take this long, I may not have purchased it in the first place. Frankly, if there's not at least a given date by mid-July when the Nexus 7's start shipping, I might sell the Xoom 2 and get one of those. Hell I could get two N7s for what I paid for the Xoom 2 lol.
