hi, thank you for your response.. could you please tell me why not? do you have any alternative recommendation?

shall i guess that you are not pleased?

do you have any alternative recommendation?
[Xoom General] guitmz:
Get the MZ604 (wifi only). Its the best for updating, etc (its on JB). I had the same doubt last week and got the MZ604 and couldnt be happier! xoom 2 is not a google device so the updates comes from motorola itself and they dont seem to care much about it
[Xoom General] nikolasr200:
wow!! i didn't know that mz604 was had officially jb! :)

i thought that motorola was a google company whatsoever, so i would expect to update all of the series..!!!
[Xoom General] Cubanluke88:
Motorola Mobility has been acquired by Google. However, Google has stated that they will be operating with a hands-off approach. We'll see if that changes in the future.

However, the original US wifi Xoom is a GED, Google Experience Device. This means it gets its updates directly from Google. The other original xooms can be unlocked via the same method as the US wifi xoom, but they do not get updates in the same manner.

The Xoom FE and the Xoom 2/Xyboards are 100% Motorola atrocities. They have locked bootloaders and [should] receive updates from Motorola/Verizon. Good luck getting updates though.

If you are considering a Xoom, get the original Xoom. Otherwise, either wait for a 10" Nexus tablet if you want a 10", or grab a Transformer series tablet or the Acer A200. If you're okay with 7", then get the Nexus 7; it reigns supreme in the 7" department.
[Xoom General] nikolasr200:
quite informative post mate...that's why i can see that still the xooms sell at near the same price as xooms 2..
[Xoom General] guitmz:
well.. its 99% the same hardware! and the xoom front camera is better than xoom 2 (2MP vs 1.3MP).. so I dont see why getting a xoom2. Some may find it prettier but in the end this doesnt even matter
[Xoom General] Cubanluke88:
Not at all. The hardware is actually what is so different about the two devices.

Processor: Tegra 2 vs OMAP 4 (Xoom 2 wins)

Display: Boring LCD vs IPS (Xoom 2 wins)

Battery: 6500 mAh vs 7000 mAh (Xoom 2 wins)

Weight: 708g vs 599g (Xoom 2 wins)

Thickness: 12.9mm vs 8.8mm (Xoom 2 wins)

The cameras are mildy different sure, but the Xoom 2 is better in almost every way in terms of hardware. This should be no surprise, as Motorola products are usually of great build quality; their hardware is usually quite good. Unfortunately, the Xoom 2 was not a flagship or GED and thus it was given the locked bootloader treatment Motorola devices typically enjoy and also filled with delightful software enhancements in the form of Motoblur and various Motorola apps.
[Xoom General] guitmz:
Didnt knew about that!

Processor: Many, many similarities so I call this almost a tie (OMAP simplifies some stuffs) -> http://www.extremetech.com/computin...s-ti-omap-4-or-why-the-droid-bionic-uses-omap

Display: Agreed, IPS is better but hey, side-to-side my Xoom and my Nexus S (AMOLED), I find Xoom screen REALLY nice, no downsides at all

Battery: 500mAh doesnt seems to make a huge difference for me, my Xoom battery takes LONG to dry out (even with wifi + torrent downloads the whole night I can still use it the whole day)

Weight: Xoom does seem a bit heavy sometimes but again, not a big deal even carring it with me everywhere

Thickness: Xoom 2 has a smaller screen and etc but the mm difference does not stands out that much

This is just my personal opinion :) [technically, xoom 2 is "better" but the changes are not that meaningful]
[Xoom General] Cubanluke88:
I sense a bit of bias in your post.

In regards to processors, even if performance is deemed "similar," the fact is that their architecture is ridiculously different and this plays a large role in software development. Nvidia is also usually extremely tight about their processors whereas OMAP chips are pretty open, making development a bit easier. Regardless, the processor is a key component to the device and the fact that they are different directly refutes the idea that the two devices have "99% same hardware."

On to some other hardware differences. The Xoom 2 screen (or any IPS display) is infinitely better than the original Xoom's screen. I'll agree that the marginal battery size difference isn't that big a deal, but its still a hardware improvement and difference. As for size, the Xoom 2 comes in two variants, 10.1" and 8.9" so...its not smaller, it just has an alternate smaller model as well. And weight? Yeah sure I don't mind carrying my Xoom around and laying around with it propped up in my lap. But I remember when the Xoom 2 first came out. There is a notable weight difference between the two devices and the Xoom 2's form factor is much, much more comfortable.

Back to the original point though, stating that their hardware is 99% similar is just silly. You may prefer the Xoom's hardware/think some parts are better/too similar to tell (and I would agree with you in some regards) but the fact is that the hardware between the two is extremely different. You can't exactly say they're 99% the same when they use different processors, different screens, and different builds resulting in different size/weight. If the Xoom 2 had been a GED or at least have been unlocked (and had an sd slot), I might have upgraded for the hardware improvements that were made, as they addressed all of the hardware disadvantages the Xoom faced on launch.
[Xoom General] jlvlawrence:
Original Xoom or the Nexus 7. I've thought about selling my Xoom and getting a nexus 7, but I don't think I could go back to a nexus 7. Currently running CM 10 on my Xoom and loving it.

[Xoom General] thr0tt:
Never a moto product again unless i move to the states but even then it would not be first choice.
[Xoom General] Cubanluke88:
Why?
[Xoom General] ROCKSTAR XS:
So if I have a 32gb 3g/wifi Verizon version its not a GED? I have to get my updates through Verizon or Motorola?
[Xoom General] thr0tt:
Support outside the usa is the worst i have seen for any product, updates have been few and far between, just look at the official moto euro forums and see the dissatisfied customers and this being my first i wont get stung again. Many on theirnhave have moto phone and had the same poor update and service yet went for a moto tablet thinking it will be different, which it isnt/wasnt.

Thats it really, hardware wise is ok but i am worried should anything fail as i know it would be extremely hard to replace or fjnd spares.
[Xoom General] Cubanluke88:
Thats correct. Thats why Verizon versions get updates after the US Wifi versions. If they had chosen a GSM carrier, it might have been a different story (similar to how unlocked GSM Galaxy Nexus is a true Nexus - gets its updates from Google). So yeah, blame Verizon.

---------- Post added at 11:27 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:21 AM ----------

Eh, as far as I'm concerned, the only OEM that gives timely updates is Asus. All the others are complete garbage, not just Motorola specifically.

Really though, in regards to Android devices, if you're willing to unlock the bootloader/flash custom roms, Nexus/GED is the way to go, every time.

[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] repilce:
Hi,

Just got this from my bro as a backup and wanted to get s-off and such to test roms/kernels.

I know this is some old stuff, but search has pointed me about a dozen different ways.

Here's what I got.

Stock eris (which was trying to do an OTA the day or two I had it on the plan, but i kept stopping it)

Hboot 1.46.0000

Radio 2.42.01.04.27

Android Version 2.1

Can anyone point me in the right direction of getting S-OFF?
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] repilce:
Okay, So I think I figured out what I need to start with is the "Root" version PB00.zip but all the download links I can find are dead or gone :(
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] repilce:
Okay, so I finally figured out you don't have to be S-OFF to flash complete roms.. just required for fastboot flashing..
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] doogald:
I just wrote through this last night.

http://androidforums.com/htc-droid-eris/51383-upgrading-2-1-tutorial-9.html#post4873879 - links are all good.

Important: you can only use the PB00IMG.zip method with 1.46.0000 or 1.47.0000 HBOOT versions. There is another way with 1.49.0000.

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iTzTrevor:
I use the trinity kernel and my quadrant score is only like at 5000? I dont understand everyone else gets 7000 or around 6900? What settings do you guys use on the kernel? and my I/O score is very low.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] espionage724:
I/O scores can be upped by turning off fsync, with a supported kernel, either via an app or script.

_motley's kernel thread has a command for disabling fsync, and can be saved to a script and put in the init.d folder. Trinity has an app that can set the setting as well.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iTzTrevor:
Thanks but for benchmarking does everyone change the governor to performance and max out the GHZ to the highest..? I do that. and my scores arent even that good.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
no, i get lower scores with the performance governor. personally i prefer ondemand/deadline. also, the commands to run the ext4 mount script that the tkt app runs, and the commands to turn off/on fsync, are in my signature. use the terminal emulator. remember to benchmark highest cpu/highest cpu.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iTzTrevor:
How do i do the ext mount script..? its not in the trinity kernel app.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Harry GT-S5830:

Hold down the volume up (might be down, can't remember) and power button down at the google screen. Then the screen should go black, quickly hold down all three keys (up, down, and power) and it should bring you to recovery mode. :good:

Hi. Have the same problem. When trying getting into recovery mode, nexus stuck on google logo. Please help. I don't know what to do.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] only1skeemer:
Ran into the same thing and now fixed

I had the same problem and finally figured out (I think) that it was because I was installing the ROM and the gapps at the same time. I installed just the ROM and then booted. Then rebooted to recovery and installed the gapps.

1. Hook it up to the computer.

2. Shut it off. Hold power. Then hold Power and Down till at the bootloader screen.

3. Flash recovery "fastboot flash recovery recov_filename.img". I used the zip from thread 1837401 on these boards to get fastboot and clockwork recovery.

Sometimes have to do this 2x if won't run through. If it sits doing nothing, go down in the menu and reboot bootload and then rerun the command before touching anything on the GN7.

4. Go into recovery, flash PA and reboot. After got in and running, reboot and install gapps.

5. Enjoy the awesomeness!
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] atticusmas:
LOL you have to wipe the data. use tib to get your stuff back. Wiping the cache is a meaningless gesture if you haven't wiped the data. If you had followed the instructions in the rom thread, there would be no problem for you.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dignan17:
Greetings!

I'm trying to back up my rooted phone so I can un-root and re-lock it before sending it back for replacement. I'm trying to use the wonderful Galaxy Nexus Toolkit to accomplish this, but I'm having a heck of a time doing it.

I got it installed, and everything seemed to be running fine, but now it seems to be stuck with no feedback whatsoever that anything is wrong.

The backup started fine, and it seemed to indicate that some app packages were backing up. Then it got to "com.google.android.apps.maps," and it's been on that for about 30 minutes now.

I assume this means it's stuck, right? What do I do? Like I said, there's no indication that anything is wrong (other than sitting there doing nothing), so I don't know what to do.

Help?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Jubakuba:
Create a nandroid instead?

Or use the adb method. Both are detailed in the guide in my sig.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dignan17:
Thanks for the reply!

I thought I was using the adb option in the toolkit. I also tried an backup with CWM, but that didn't back up as much as I thought it would. I was under the impression that it would back up everything, including the apps and their settings, but that does not seem to be the case, as the backup was over in about 30 seconds. The files in the CWM backup folder also only seemed to be ~200MB in size, if that, so I assumed it was just backing up the ROM?

Either way, I just unplugged and tried this again. I think it worked this time. I told it not to include system apps (since those I can get back easily and I don't really care about losing those settings), and that seemed to help. Now I'm working on the sdcard data (because what the heck?).
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Jubakuba:
No, a nandroid backs every setting, app, boot, system, etc.

The only thing it doesn't back up is your SDCard.

If you're using the newest CWM, ,the backup in the backup folded will be small and it won't take much time.

The majority of the files are held in the blobs folder.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] dignan17:
Thanks! I'm going to be safe and do that in addition to the Toolkit.

or maybe you have not enabled usb debugging its under developer on the settings
[HTC Sensation] T-Macgnolia:
As the post above says you can get 4EXT Recovery on your device , but first you will need an eng Hboot cause I think that is the cause of your problem. Got to the Unlimited.io website and click on downloads and down load the Hboot version for the pyramid and the version or Android you are using. Then use the following fastboot commands.

fastboot erase cache
fasboot rebootRUU
fastboot flash zip jb_hboot.zip

This should fix any fasboot issues or other ADB issues because all commands are usable with the eng Hboot.
