Great to see a update for the XOOM (Wingray), I haven't checked this particular forum in ages!

I'm looking at updating my XOOM as I'm running CM10 on it currently, but it's not quite stable for some reason.

Anyone of you who have experience with CM10, CM11 (this version) and OmniROM 4.4.2? What would you recommend as a daily ROM? :)
[Xoom Android Development] webeougher:
Depends. If you've used CM before and enjoyed it, CM 11 is rock solid. If you want a bunch more customization options, Omni's not a bad choice.
[Xoom Android Development] srqrob:
I haven't used the Omni. Like you I stuck with CM10 for a long time and was about to bail on the Wingray as I saw more and more issues arising. I had not used TWRP before and had a couple of issues going in but now that I'm here it's a new burst of life for my Xoom. I'm a CM fan and happy to still be there.
[Xoom Android Development] for3cas7:
Has anyone noticed any issues on wifi ? Its specifically when streaming videos that I get some lagging and sometimes disconnects.

I can have my s3 running a stream from iPlayer and my Xoom side by side.

The xoom (mz604) will stutter or drop connection completely after 60 seconds but the S3 carries on as normal.. I'm on fibre and a few 70/17 connec so speed shouldn't be an issue. It's only since the cm 11 upgrade that I've noticed the issues.

Can anyone help? Or is this a known bug? Or is there anything I can use to diagnose the issue (log locations etc?)

I'm on the latest version as well if this helps... V.11 20140207-1931+0100

[Xoom Android Development] for3cas7:
Updated after i posted this and still an issue...

Is there anything I can use to View what is causing the disconnects?
[Xoom Android Development] TheOrangeRemix:
Great work so far! A couple of issues when upgrading to the latest build:

- stock browser FC (I tried Dolphin and it works fine)

- when reading a book in Play Books in portrait mode, the nav buttons disappear, but never reappear after exiting the app. Turning the screen off then back on fixes this. Must be something in immersive mode which causes this bug
[Xoom Android Development] no*boundaries:
Its a great ROM very happy to have it on the Xoom, but as mentioned the stock browser is just weird, it flashes and jumps around and then pop ups with virus checking, and then opens tabs and errr I can go on. Help. someone hi jacked the code somewhere along the development.
[Xoom Android Development] Alxoom33:
Looks like you picked up some malware. Use an antvirus app. I like AVG Antivirus free.
[Xoom Android Development] HuckFinn:
Which stock browser are you referring to? I did a clean install and the only browser I had installed was Chrome. I was hoping to use the old browser as it seems to be more stable for my use. Firefox and Dolphin are fine, but I would still prefer the old "Browser".
[Xoom Android Development] TheOrangeRemix:
I think he means the AOSP browser, which I am having FC issues with, but I flashed the latest on top of a previous version.
[Xoom Android Development] no*boundaries:
Yes, AOSP browser, it is unstable, it flashes and carries on, it opens up tabs, then shuts them by itself, all very odd. I thought malware, but running norton mobile security. It came in on XDA forums

wifi problem

Same for me. After 2 days the problems began. First time after battery was down to 30%, after that problems are always there and in every app using internet.

Loss of Verizon LTE after Bigpart repartitioning & CM 11.

This is awesome that there is -some- kind of recovery process so that you can get LTE back, but...

It scares the hell out of me. Plus I've been through so many complete rebuilds from scratch that

I'd rather slit my throat than go though another one. :D OK, maybe just my wrists.

The bigpart process I could understand - in fact it was quite easy. The recovery... yikes!

Do we understand why this happens? Is it that the bigpart repartitioning process somehow dings some

part of the radio code? If so, could this be replaced by the TWRP recovery(or more likely, by the

CM rom, since there are specific ROMs for the stingray)? Does anybody understand why it happens?

Thanks!

PS: Other than missing mobile data, -everything- else with CM11-20140211 works very well for me. I have to

admit I haven't had a chance to really beat on it because I'm still contemplating doing webeougher's

recovery process, and didn't want to prematurely invest in resetting my baby up, only to blow all

that away again. Having said that, there have been no real holdups or glitches that were unexpected.

Very functional, and love having the option of installing the full bore PA Gapps(even if I've disabled

80% of the Gapps system startups :) )

Very VERY happy, and impressed with all the hard work that appears to have been successfully

accomplished with this!
[Xoom Android Development] webeougher:
Did you come from stock, rooted Jelly Bean? That's the only commonality we've been able to come up with, which leads me to believe that Moto or Verizon switched something up in that update which makes it incompatible with the BigPart process.
[Xoom Android Development] rmkenney12:
I've forgotten exactly what I did, but about 5-6 months ago I tried doing an update to

CM10.1 + Gapps, and started having problems with Google play not connecting.

I thought that I'd somehow corrupted something(this was before I found out that

/system was too small). So I tried to do as clean a reinstall as I could make happen.

I reflashed my stingray back to original baseline(HLK75D?) using fastboot,

relocked it, allowed OTA's to finish updating it to IMM76L(?), unlocked it,

and rerooted it. Then installed CM10(no Gapps yet). That seemed to work, so then

I updated to 10.1. That seemed to work, so I then installed the Gapps package

for 10.1, but then it started doing the same funky thing that it had been doing before

I did the baseline - the progress meter for the Gapps install would only go halfway

and then it would exit, and it was obviously only half-installed when I went looking for

stuff.

It was only then that I thought I had problems with the Gapps specifically, and checked

the clockworkmod logs. I noticed the "out of disk space" error generated

by the Gapps install, and realized that it was actually a space issue, and the Gapps install

was merely taking the blame because it was the last thing to be installed.

So I attempted to fall back. I did a factory reset, flashed back to CM10, reinstalled the corresponding

Gapps, and (somehow) the thing has been working correctly - play market working OK - Wifi, LTE, etc.

No glitches at all. Just a 20-30 Mb left in /system, but it was enough so that Gapps would install and I

could run the market and reinstall all my apps.

So, that's the provenance(or as best I can remember). It's been several months since I've monkeyed with

it.

I had been waiting for the Bigpart project to get to a point where it seemed mostly foolproof,

and only just yesterday installed CM 10-20140211 and the PA Gapps package. Maybe I didn't

wait long enough. :laugh:

Anyways, so what you're thinking is that the final OTA I originally allowed before I unlocked the Xoom

is the deal breaker with BigPart?
[Xoom Android Development] rmkenney12:
Well. I slashed my wrists, slit my throat(after drinking a lot of beer), and then went through the process

documented by [MENTION=1515895]webeougher[/MENTION] :D Success! I have CM 11 Bigpart, PA Gapps, and 4G LTE.

Awesome!
[Xoom Android Development] _MrFrankie:
You can remove superuser from this rom? because premium play (similar SkyGo) does not work with the active root.

Can anyone modify this app?

A change in frameworks/base/core/jni/android_view_Surface.cpp causes an error on the build, it's from 3 days ago, wondering if you know how to fix it

for the time being I've reverted to this which was fine before it broke

this is the commit that broke it: https://github.com/CyanogenMod/andr...mmit/956497ec7d387135caf42b574275fa91e8f5b53c

The latest build is 16/02 which is 3 days ago when the commit was made so I think your latest build missed out on the error
[Xoom Android Development] Elite_Deforce:
Just installed this, very good ROM, great work. I came from OmniROM because that ran extremely sluggish on both my Xooms. CM11 is better but can still be snappier. Those of you who have a nexus 5 or similar, how would you compare your speed to this ROM? It's still a bit night and day for me. What settings are you using?
[Xoom Android Development] logitechor:
I too am looking for a way to play nice with HBO Nordic. On my Nexus 4 I installed a simple 4.4.2 ROM and HBO Nordic works with a VPN (I use HideMyAss). On my Tablet I have CM 4.4.2. HBO Nordic does not work.

I tried a couple of temporary hide root access apps and while they let HBO Nordic load the video does not play.

Not sure of what tactic to take. Thank you.

USB audio working

First of all, thanks a lot for a great rom. Working superbly on my Xoom and the standby time is awesome! :)

Now, to the question...

Is USB audio properly implemented?

I have seen several reports over at Head Fi forums that USB audio (i.e. audio output through a USB-connected sound card) is now natively supported in CM11 after this change by Mr Steve Kondik himself.

If so, anyone got it working?

I have tried with reportedly compatible hardware, Motorola Xoom + SMSL Fort, according to this page. (Yes, I know that this page is about a specific app, but the point is that the hardware is tried and tested.) with no luck. The Xoom doesn't seem to recognize the sound card. Trying said app, it reports that the "Linux layer" recognizes the hardware, but that Android doesn't.

Would love to turn my aging Xoom in to an awesome hifi-player, and it now seems so close to happening!

Any input is appreciated!
[Xoom Android Development] maduuto:
Hi. Ist cm11 stable? And i need a rom and kernel with loop device support does this work here?

Best wishes
[Xoom Android Development] silbo:
Schischu tanks for this Rom.

But the 3g connection is miserable.
[Xoom Android Development] armido:
Loop support.

G'day,

Yes. CM11 supports loop devices and most linux file systems you may want to use. Great ROM, and stability is a pretty broad term. If you are more specific about what kind of stability you desire, I'm sure there are users who can answer your concern.

I particularly appreciate the 'shield' feature that enables one to block apps from accessing your private information. Be aware that SuperSu is included in the ROM and is not flashed when coming to CM11 from another ROM.
[Xoom Android Development] maduuto:
What is the advantage of cm instead of omnirom?
[Xoom Android Development] Elite_Deforce:
I personally find CM11 to be much faster and snappier than the OmniROM.
[Xoom Android Development] maduuto:
I will try it :) Updates? Every week?

Kind Regards
[Xoom Android Development] Elite_Deforce:
I'm still finding CM11 to be a bit sluggish despite having 450MB free RAM at any given moment and running very minimal apps. Anyone else? I have my processor set to 456 min and 1400 max ondemand.
[Xoom Android Development] 063_XOBX:
You realize you're talking about a device that's 3 years old and wasn't particularly powerful when it was new running a much newer OS, right?
[Xoom Android Development] gibbs1984:
OK had a quick look back through the posts and can't see anyone else with the same problem but I have a massive wakelock, my device had 98% when I went to work this morning and was on aeroplane mode, came home and the battery was dead.

Installed Wakelock Detector and it appears that the default Clock app is keeping my device awake and draining the battery. I'm on the latest version.

Any suggestions? I could flash the ROM again but if it's a default app will it make any difference? It seemed to be fine last week too which is strange.
[Xoom Android Development] dizzy33:
Android 4.1.2 was perfectly fluid and smooth. Android 4.4.2 is using less ressources, and only ask 512 mb of minimal memory.

So 4.4.2 should at least be as smooth and fast as 4.1.2. (and I don't even talk about ART).

Now let's talk about specs : our Xoom has the same specs as a Galaxy S3 mini (more or less). And many devices are still sold with dual core processors and 1go RAM (sometimes even with only 512mb).

So our Xoom should be able to run 4.4.2 at least as smooth as 4.1.2.

Both CM11 and Omnirom are still less fluid than 4.1.2 (I tried both), and I think this is more an optimization problem in the way these ROMS have been adapted to our Xoom (Omnirom is getting better and better but is still not fluid enough for me).
[Xoom Android Development] Elite_Deforce:
This. My Xoom was running almost at iPad *gasp* fluidity when it was all stock. These ROMs add enormous functionality at the cost of enjoyment of using the device. Furthermore, I have heard that some folks are running these ROMs with very nice animation speeds, so I'm just wondering what's up that's all.
[Xoom Android Development] Elite_Deforce:
Also, I'm constantly getting Google+ FCs. I don't even use Googe+. :(
[Xoom Android Development] dizzy33:
These ROMs maybe smooth enough for many people, especially if they come from 4.2 or 4.3 ROMs which were also a lot less fluid than 4.1.2.

I tried both Omnirom and CM11 2 weeks ago, and I was impressed by the progress made since December 2013 about fluidity (I've found Omnirom a bit more fluid than CM11). These ROMs are quite good, I guess they may be usable as is for most of Xoom users, but I am in search of perfect fluidity, and 4.1.2 is perfect in that, not CM11 or Omnirom, even when using ART, processor overclock to 1500 Mhz, etc ...
[Xoom Android Development] gibbs1984:
OK so left my Xoom on Wifi and dropped about 2% all day so is there only a problem with battery drain with the Xoom in aeroplane mode?
[Xoom Android Development] IcyAgitator:
Can i just flash the regular cm11 nightly builds and then flash the bigpart kernel (elemental-x Xoom 2.1) on top of that install? Or is this build special in some other way?
[Xoom Android Development] matt4321:
That would work, all the needed changes are in the kernel

Exchange email problems

Could somebody please tell me if stock email works with Exchange yet on CM11? I tried it about 1 month ago and didn't work. It could receive, but not send and would get into endless sync loops. It does the same thing on Omni, and is driving me nuts. :( Would appreciate some feedback. I don't have this issue on my stock Nexus7 running 4.4.2...

Thanks,

Mount script for external sd partitioned vfat/ext2, 3, 4

I'm experimenting with liv2's instructions for installing linux natively http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1138661 , and found a script that mounts an external sdcard with a vfat32 and linux partition that works with Big Part cm11.

Hum... how weird. Let me get back to the drawing board then... thanks for the input.

---------- Post added at 09:52 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:50 PM ----------

I don't have any problems with any other device... just the Xoom... which to me is weird. I have 70+ users all using different devices that all work just fine. We are also using Office365 which in itself is a benchmark standard for things working, and my Xoom just spins and spins trying to sync that. So I'm going to wipe from scratch and try this all again... perhaps I'll be nice and get some logcats together if I still can't get this working.

Thanks

Anyone know if there is a way to disable the charging light feature? In older version of CM the option Settings > Device > Display & lights > Battery Light would disable the charging status in addition to the low battery indicators. At least this is what I remember disabling the light. I change the tablet on a dock at my bedside and since I updated mid January I've had a very bright green light that I've been trying to block.
[Xoom Android Development] tincbtrar:
Years ago I worked for a company who used exchange but had no idea how to implement it for mobile devices.

Be sure to ask IT for exchange protocol and port info. That would be a good start.

Or better yet...if you have a mobile device which is already configured (and rooted) delve into filesystem and get info for that connection.

This helped me from bothering IT after factory resets. :)
[Xoom Android Development] Vnvjeep:
Lol... I'm "IT", and actually the one responsible for our exchange and mobile environment and have a fairly good idea when it comes to dealing with these kinds of issues... My xoom running Omni/CM11 is the only thing unable to make a solid connection. I support dozens of iPhones, ipads, and a host of different droid phones and tablets... I don't have any problems with a rooted Razr Maxx HD running KK 4.4.2 Carbon... or my nexus 7 running stock KK 4.4.2....or my Note3 running stock JB 4.3... but I do have problems with the Xoom ... same settings. Doesn't matter if its exchange 2010 or 2013 or Office365. Same issue.

Well I wiped from scratch last night and right out of the chute... its slow, sluggish and has email hanging in the outbox. Sometimes I could push it through by repeatedly resending/syncing the outbox or by rebooting. I don't see this behavior much. It was working fine on EOS 4.0, so its difficult to justify that I'm doing something stupid here... there's a real problem with this. I've been looking at logcat, but nothing is sticking out yet. Seems like its trying to do its job, but is just not very responsive. The account syncs up fine but when it gets stuck in its sync loop, everything grinds to a halt. When its not stuck in a loop email is received just fine.

If you want to test this... set up a free account on www.outlook.com and configure an exchange account... see if you experience the same issue.

Thanks.

stuttering connectivity

Hi guys,

1. is it just me, or do you experience stuttering connectivity? When I am watching youtube, or using uListen very rarely I can listen to the whole song without any stuttering. I can live with a lot of things, but this is really, really annoying when listening to favourite tracks.

2. Does your device sees 5G wi-fi? My xoom saw it once and that is it, can not see it no more.

I'm obviously on bigpart, had Omni Rom, but really wanted to try CM (wiped everything apart from system). My broadband is great, other devices connect via 5G, so it must be the xoom problem.
[Xoom Android Development] Alxoom33:
I've seen 5g on my Xoom even before Big Part.
[Xoom Android Development] xywojtek:
that's great, but does it work? it doesn't on mine
[Xoom Android Development] Alxoom33:
Yes. Works fine. Try deleting your data on Ti and then input your wifi info manually.
[Xoom Android Development] for3cas7:
I uninstalled cm 11 due to this stuttering issue and switched to omnirom. I commented on it back in Feb and it's not been resolved, so I tried an alternative.

I don't necessarily hate omnirom, however it's not cm11. The stability is just so much better though for WiFi. No stuttering on YouTube chrome streaming and no random disconnects from MY router so I suspect it's a cm11 build issue, or at least it definitely is for me.

If this could be fixed I'd go back to cm11 in a heartbeat.
