[Xoom General] Scotty Bones:
The surface isn't a tablet, its a slate. I can already configure switches via console with my Xoom. It's too bad vmware wont get off their rear. My notebook is no longer portable, so i'm need of decent mobile solution for vsphere. The surface seems like an interesting device, i have always wanted a slim line slate. If you can ditch win8 for Win7, it might be a winner.
[Xoom General] 3devious:
What is the difference between a tablet and a slate? What can you do in Win 7 that you cant do in 8? Other than press a button in the lower left part that has "Start" printed on it?
[Xoom General] Scotty Bones:
A slate is a real pc, a tablet is not. This is why you cant run windows software on the RT. Microsoft made a huge mistake by not making this distinction clear from the get go. As for win8, its a complete abomination. My rant on that subject could take up an entire page here. Needless to say, I refuse to upgrade my MCSA to 2012 because of it.
[Xoom General] freeky1:
I have the Fujitsu Q702 11.6" tablet with i5 and 256 GB hard drive. It had Windows 7 and I upgraded it to Windows 8 Pro. I have to disagree with you about Windows 8. I love it. I have it on my tablet, laptop, and desktop. Windows 8.1 (Windows Blue) will add a start button when it is released in the fall.

advice for replacement

I enjoy my Xoom every day (MZ601) but I realize that it will have to be replaced within a year or so.

What tablet would be a good choice?
[Xoom General] 48dodge:
I've finally decided on getting the 2nd gen Nexus 7 which is supposed to come out this month. I'm sure I'll use my xoom for certain things but Web browsing is starting to get tedious.
[Xoom General] romdroid.:
still waiting for a decent 10" tablet with memory card support and 3g.
[Xoom General] XxLordxX:
Wait for the next Nexus 10 ;), the current one is great' but as you want to buy next year...

I downloaded Bubble UPnP on mine, even without the screen working, I plugged on HDMI, so I can watch many stuff there, also I'm thinking about formatting and loading it with only movies and videos, so it will be much better. So, it's now my media centre, as I can let it open on my bedroom and watch a video stored on it on my N10, while lunching.

I guess Google won't be your option, since Galaxy Nexus they don't support SD card anymore, and I guess there will be no 10" with 3g, because if the following: I have a S4 and a Nexus 10, I don't need 3g on both, just share 3g from S4 to my N10. But I know that it can be an issue to some people, as not all phones have WiFi Hotspot, however as things go they will all have IMO. Probably you can look for the next Asus Transformer ;).

Thanks XxLordxX for your advice;

Wait for the next Nexus 10 , the current one is great' but as you want to buy next year...

But the Nexus 10 is not for sale in the Netherlands, something to do with the Playstore not being fully functional in our country.:(
[Xoom General] romdroid.:
I use a diffrenct sim card that has unlimited data connection for my tablet. For my phone I only have 1gb. Also with hotspot it drains a lot of battery
[Xoom General] romdroid.:
I was just to order nexus 10 but I couldn't live without the fact that it didn't have any 3g. I mean the 32GB version is also to expensive and 16gb is not enough. There is still no talet to date that can give u as much as the xoom gives. 32GB, 3g memory card slot etc..
[Xoom General] piratashitzu:
I have both Motorola Xoom and Samsung Note 10.1 (N8000), and I must to tell you N8000 is the best tablet I've ever used till now.

I have a 16GB version with a 64GB MicroSD Card. 3G is very good and the TouchWiz interface is smooth.

It made me give my XOOM to my little son ( 2 years) play virtual piano and watch cartoons with an OTTERBOX heavy duty case (KIDs proof).

Go for Note 10.1. You won't regret.
[Xoom General] 3devious:
I keep the data plan on my XOOM because my mom loves it so much. I put that Verizon Messages app on it so she can text from her ancient flip phone. I really miss not having LTE anymore. Sure, I tether my Surface to my Galaxy Nexus but it's not the some. I also had faster data speeds on the XOOM than the Nexus.

If Microsoft puts out a Surface Pro with LTE, I'm even willing to switch carriers. The XOOM had me really spoiled when everything got working.
[Xoom General] kevoroid:
Motorola Xoom by far is the most pure and flexible tablet of all!
[Xoom General] 48dodge:
Forgive me for I have sinned. I did end up getting a 2013 Nexus 7. After the latest update my gps issues seem to be working. I plan on keeping one xoom for myself. Also going to setup at least one of my others for the kids. May give them each one. The few times I picked the xoom up I can't get over how solid it feels.
[Xoom General] kevoroid:
couldn't agree more!
[Xoom General] sk4doosh:
+1 on the Xoom's internal memory size and memory card slot. Most tablets these days don't come with external slots, just trying to make you use the the various cloud storage services that are available and keeping their manufacturing costs down.
[Xoom General] IbukiSuika:
I can't agree with you more. Even if I do decide to get the 2013 N7, I still have to keep my xoom. I bet someone will even port 4.4 kitkat to it... It's the tablet that outlasts them all. :angel:
[Xoom General] logitechor:
I love the Xoom and continue to use it. The developers continue to breathe life into it. I am running 4.3. I like the 10 inch screen. Personal choice I suppose.

Rooted unlocked and over clocked it is pretty fast. Not as fast as current tablets but fast for the average Xoom. The hardware on it is versatile - including the Sdcard Slot and the OTG USB and front and rear cameras. All of this is important. I love the Xoom despite it's age and not the most current features including the processor and display. Iam very glad I purchased.
[Xoom General] pkarza:
Every time I think about getting a different tablet, a new rom appears. As a matter of fact, I had a nexus 7 and sold it... the xoom just felt better. The 4.4.2 rom just kept it in my hands again.
[Xoom General] Spikexp31:
I fully agree with pkarza !
[Xoom General] brewer75:
Agreed

I bought my used Xoom wifi about a year ago, immediately rooted it and ran various CM 4.2' nightlies. I decided to take the leap of re-partitioning and installed the unofficial OmniRom Kit Kat 4.4.2 making sure I explicitly followed ALL the directions, procedures, and tweaks. This has brought renewed life to the device and I am so pleased that it works this well that at the present time I don't see any need to get anything else!
[Xoom General] hotdog011:
This Xoom is the little choo choo that could... with a little help from our dev community. I just wish it was fast enough to play 1080p without stuttering. Still love it.
[Xoom General] XxLordxX:
Hi,

Sorry, but why would you want to run a 1080p video on a 1280x800 screen? I also wanted it do it, but then I noticed it'd be not worth. Also, the processor can't really handle it... Xoom is still my media server, it's sad that it can't play some mkv videos too. But it's still a great device! Only wished my one had the screen still working hahaha.

[Xoom General] TheOrangeRemix:
XOOM is 4 years old and still running strong with 4.4.4. Works great for reading news, tweeting, messaging, and browsing web sites. I will never upgrade!
[Xoom General] Kingsman1:
I'm running the Cyanogenmod Android 4.4.4 Rom 11-30-2014 with the latest standard Gapps. The Xoom is still running great. With a good internet connection it still works beautifully for almost all purposes. Though I wouldn't recommend it for the latest processor intensive gaming it works great to show movies from YouTube, Xfinity, Netflix, etcetera.

Been using mine now for nearly three years, and I love it. Last week when I went to teach my class, an 80" screen had been installed in the classroom. Hooked it up with my HDMI cable. Beautiful resolution.

I write, teach, use the Xoom as a display for my sheet music, coupled with a Cicada wireless page Turner, I'm able to play my keyboard effortlessly.

With a 128 gig external, this is still an amazing piece of machinery. I've had several other tablets break on me, die, or had the developer fail to upgrade their tablets. I believe that the developers with XDA are still working on bringing us Lollipop. I really am glad that they have been so faithful with this work.

At some point I will be retiring my Xoom for a tablet with faster processors, more Ram, 64 gigs of internal Rom, an external sdcard slot, larger screen, and pen (read Samsung Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 anyone?), but not yet. Even then this wonderful workhorse will either go to my wife, or to one of my grandchildren.

Blessings,

Rob

Which ROM did you flash? Which kernel are you using? If it's an ICS based ROM, and you're on a .42 GB, obviously enough the phone won't boot properly.

What is meant by ics based rom??
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Feanor88:
It means that they are developed starting from official Sony ICS ROM. Therefore, they will only work if you are using ICS kernel.

Do this:

-Download from HERE Mini's ICS firmware.

-Use Flashtool to flash only the kernel: this means you have to select the ICS .ftf and then uncheck all "Wipe" boxes. Then check all "Exclude" voices, but leave "Exclude kernel" unchecked.

-After flashing the kernel, you should be able to boot.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] juabhi:
Thnxx....But if I want to install those roms then what should I do?Do I have to root the ICS?? I have this ftf and just flashed but I lost root access.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Feanor88:
Well, you lost root access because you didn't do what I told you to do.

So why should I tell you what to do next? You probably wouldn't do it.

So... you flashed ICS. Congratulations. Now, to root ICS, you have to flash GB back. Then root it. Then, you can:

a) Flash ICS following THIS tutorial to keep root. Then install CWM. Then, use CWM to flash the ROM.

b) Install CWM on GB. Use CWM to flash the ROM. And then you can do what I told you to do earlier. That is:

ONLY. FLASH. ICS. KERNEL.

Not the whole ROM. Otherwise, you'll have to start from the beginning.

Follow the steps on either one of these threads in order to re-install a custom recovery. From there just follow the thread of any given Rom you want to install (especially steps for if you are S-ON or S-Off) and you will have root that way, Most, if not all Custom ROMs have root. Goodluck Buddy

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nuld:
Hey guys

I got the notification that a new update is available for my stock GT-I9300 (Vodafone New Zealand) a few days ago. When I clicked on install it complained because I was on mobile data and so I decided to wait until I am at home. But when I got within range of a wifi it must have automatically downloaded and installed the update, because the next time I pulled the device out of my pocket it was stuck at the initial boot screen.

I have since tried to do a firmware recovery through Kies, which downloaded the firmware and then failed to install it saying that it does not know the device or something along those lines (I unfortunately did not save a screenshot of the exact message). Then I tried Odin, which simply fails with the log output below. I know that this is a ROM for the UK, but I haven't found a ROM for NZ yet and thought that it might work anyway.

The status printed when I go into the recovery mode is a bit strange:

ODIN MODE

PRODUCT NAME:

CUSTOM BINARY DOWNLOAD: No

CURRENT BINARY: Samsung Official

SYSTEM STATUS: Custom

Why is there no product name and why is the system status "custom"? I have only had the phone for three weeks and I have not rooted or flashed it yet.

Any suggestions would be much appreciated :)

Doesn't look like your computer found your phone, remove/reinstall the USB drivers. You can use KIES, click troubleshoot connection, it will reinstall them.

Hope that helps,

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nuld:
Odin says "<ID:0/011> Added!!" (or some other port of course) whenever I connect the phone, doesn't that mean that it detected the phone?

I actually did the troubleshoot connection in Kies yesterday and it reinstalled the driver. I have since removed Kies (not the driver) from my computer, as I thought that this might be the reason why Odin fails.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nuld:
Ok I am getting really desperate, I have spent a large part of the weekend trying to get this to work and still no luck. Any further suggestions would be highly appreciated :)

I have re-installed the USB driver a few times now and Kies is not installed to make sure that there are no conflicts between ODIN/Kies. I have also found a ROM for Vodafone NZ (I9300XXALE8_I9300VNZALE4_VNZ) which is where I got the phone.

ODIN detects when I plug the phone into my computer, but fails with the following:

<ID:0/011> Get PIT for mapping..

<ID:0/011>

<ID:0/011> There is no PIT partition.

<ID:0/011> Added!!

<OSM> All threads completed. (succeed 0 / failed 1)

What is the cause for this error and do I need a PIT file and do a re-partition to fix it?

Is it normal that when in download mode, the product name shown on the phone screen is empty?

Thanks!

Noob question but hopefully someone here can help with something that's puzzling me.

My Iconia is a 16GB, of which 12.7 is available (seems like a lot to lose for the OS, etc, but whatever). The other day I notice I only have approx. 2GB available for use. Now I don't store tons of stuff on my tablet nor do I have too many apps on there IMO, so I thought that number was a little low. I hook my tab up to my computer and go through the properties of each folder to see how much space they're using. Adding everything up I get about 4GB worth, which should leave me 8.7 GB available for use. So why is it telling me I only have 2??? Where did that 6.7 GB go?

Thanks for any help.

P.S. Yes I will back everything up and move as much as I can to the SD card.
[Acer Iconia A500] yaworski:
Is your tablet rooted? If yes then open Terminal Emulator or connect with adb shell and run (as root) following command:

du -had 1 /data

It will display sizes for direct subdirectories and files in /data partition (internal storage is also on this partition in /data/media directory).

Meaning of used "du" parameters:

-h - shows file/dir sizes in human readable form

-a - shows file sizes (without this du only shows directory sizes)

-d - max deep to display (-d 1 means only direct subdirectories)
