[Xoom Android Development] Schischu:
Indeed it has been a long time since the last update.

But finally I can tell you some news. The last weeks I played a lot with my old Xoom and have some positive results to report:

Omnirom Android 5.1.1_r24 with working WiFi. This is the last version supported by OMNI. (Security patch level November 1, 2015)

Android AOSP 6.0.1_r17. (Security Level March 1, 2016)

TWRP 3.0

I already uploaded the 6.0.1 version here. Please note that this is an early build without OTA support. Download

You will have to use a static ip for wifi. dhcp is not working. Didn't we have this issue some version ago too?

For 5.1.1 I have yet to test OTA but I will hopefully have it online in the next hours.

TWRP 3.0 should also be online in the next hours.

:)
[Xoom Android Development] Rommul:
The Xoom lives!
[Xoom Android Development] shpitz461:
Did i just **** my pants?!?!?!? Thanks Schischu!!!

Is anything else not working besides DHCP? Are camera/gps working?
[Xoom Android Development] Schischu:
Camera not working

Video hw decoding not working

Basically the same stuff as the LP rom.

Currently working on Audio Input Recording

incredible, i love my xoom and will love to test

hi, aosp rom 6 dont boot, it get stuck in the boot screen

second edit, i removed the sd card and it booted
[Xoom Android Development] andPS2:
exciting news!

flashed the new 6.0 test

u have to flash without gapps at first (at least the banks gapps skipping wifi doesnt work)

funny thing is without wifi clicking on apps doesnt show anything

after configuring static ip for wifi (upper right corner) apps do show up

can't believe 6.0 is on good ol xoom - will test more later with gapps

but i am really interested in the 5.1 build - is sound with headphones working and is sound louder

than it was on the rom in this thread before?

as 5.1 had a fantastic standby battery time which i cant reach with any of my other devices (that includes

nexus 5 and fire tablet)

thanks a lot [MENTION=6147355]Shishu[/MENTION]
[Xoom Android Development] briandotcom0:
Have you tried amplify, the xposed module? Between that and greenify, my tablet drops a % or two when I don't use it for a day.

I'm also curious about the headphones audio for both ROMs. Hopefully I'll have the free time to try them tomorrow.
[Xoom Android Development] andPS2:
havent tried amplify yet

but i am talking about like 3 or 4 weeks in standby and still only from 100 to 80 percent ;)

same sound problems with 6.0 test rom - i guess its kernel related

headphones dont work and sound isnt loud enough
[Xoom Android Development] Schischu:
Yeah battery on the Xoom is awesome. Last year I did a test and hat 3 months battery life with only occasionally screen on.

[MENTION=2371134]Schischu[/MENTION] How do i get the TWRP 3.0 for my Xoom??? Wanna try it...
[Xoom Android Development] Schischu:
For people that are familiar with fastboot

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot reboot

http://duckbox.de/android/wingray/twrp/twrp_3.0.0.0_wingray.tar

If somebody feels like creating a flashable zip that would be awesome.
[Xoom Android Development] scorpiomaj27:
Pretty excited about this release, flashed 6.0.1 earlier, however despite several reboots, various types of wipes, etc, it's not stable for more than a minute or 2 before it bootloops from the launcher screen.

Not sure what's going on with it at this point, but I'm going to keep trying.

Also tried the 3.0.2-0, but couldn't get to SD card. Pulled SD card and rebooted, came up once quickly, still testing....

[Xoom Android Development] Schischu:
Yeah it seems that there is an error with external storage, will have to check this.
[Xoom Android Development] scorpiomaj27:
On my side I can now reliably boot, but continue to get The process Android.Phone has stopped... indefinitely. Just a observational data, not a complaint, appreciate your efforts on this.

[MENTION=2371134]Schischu[/MENTION]

How to fix wifi in the Marshmallow rom by Schischu, without static ip and things like that:

Allow developer options.

And then set "ON" the option "USE LEGACY DHCP CLIENT".

Just that.
[Xoom Android Development] tb110188:
The tablet is really great with Marshmallow on it, but some adb commands like "adb reboot recovery" and "adb reboot bootloader" actually just reboots the tablet without entering the options... Even selecting the option to reboot to recovery or the bootloader on the recovery seems not working...
[Xoom Android Development] Manuellama:
To be able to install gapps, you need to add ro.setupwizard.mode=DISABLED to build.prop.

Either Schischu adds this option in the next zip or you add it via adb pull system/build.prop; adb push build.prop system/build.prop after you have added the ro.setupwizard.mode = DISABLED.

It will avoid endless session of setupwizard has stopped google play services has stopped show.
[Xoom Android Development] scorpiomaj27:
Currently was successful as follows:

Fastboot TWRP 2860 (if TWRP not already installed, couldn't get any version of 3.x working.) Can't vouch either way for lower versions, could be ok.

[Xoom Android Development] andPS2:
did anyone get root access?

how is the method? guess we dont need a patched kernel so just flash latest supersu?

any overclocking tool that doesnt need root? since this is aosp there is no built in way

to overclock
[Xoom Android Development] Manuellama:
I found some things about the sdcard.

If you boot with the sdcard, you get bootloop right?

Now try to do this:

adb shell

mount -o remount,rw /

rm fstab.stingray

Wait 10 seconds. It will boot as normal.

If you have ES File Explorer and try to see the sdcard... it will show the contents of /emmc !!!

Just won't tell you is /emmc. It will tell you sdcard emulated or something like that.

I think this is due to init.stingray.rc. It tells to symlink as legacy sdcard and to mount fstab.stingray, but fstab.stingray must be doing something wrong with the sdcard...

init.stingray.rc regenerates itself, like fstab.stingray with every boot... I cannot modify them.

I don't know. I am exhausted today. I think [MENTION=2371134]Schischu[/MENTION] can help me with these doubts.
[Xoom Android Development] Ghennon:
OMG,Finally! What about Everest? Anyone doing it?
[Xoom Android Development] Nuny0biznes:
As far as I know, yes. I think the model number is MZ604. Maybe someone else can confirm.
[Xoom Android Development] brewer75:
Thanks for all your hard work on this. I flashed your build as soon as it was available and just flashed this update. I realize this is an alpha build but I believe I will revert to 4.4.4 since my Xoom is not performing as smoothly as I would like and the battery life is still not good. I'll keep checking this site to monitor possible progress and may return later.
[Xoom Android Development] Nuny0biznes:
HDMI Video

Hdmi video output works for me although audio does not. If I connect the headphone jack to external speakers it works just fine. I noticed that audio and video were out of sync on mx player so i use VLC and manually adjust the audio track to sync. So far, this is really solid for an Alpha. Excellent work. I want to learn to cook roms myself. Any suggestions on a good guide or book? Thanks.
[Xoom Android Development] rohitece06:
This thing will never die!!! Thanks to the amazing developers.
[Xoom Android Development] tomtreas:
Confirmed. Wingray is the MZ604 Wifi only Xoom. I don't know the model of the Verizon one but I think it is MZ601 and it is called the Stingray. I personally have the Wingray and will be watching this thread closely. Thanks for the good work in keeping this sucker rockin'!
[Xoom Android Development] pots22:
MZ601

Wrong, MZ601 = Xoom 3G + Wifi Europe model and it's called "Everest"

MZ600 = Xoom 3G + Wifi Verizon US model called "Stingray";)
[Xoom Android Development] michie:
Roms can be flashed between all variants of the Xoom without risking bricking.

You can use the Wingray rom on Everest and Stingray and visa versa but you will loose 3G functionality because the wingray is wifi only. When you go back to a Stingray/Everest rom later, 3G functionality will be back.

As long as you dont mess with the bootloader flashing roms between all variants is perfectly safe. (been doing this myself for 4 years already for testing purposes)
[Xoom Android Development] andecadu:
installation ?

someone has a video showing the installation ?
[Xoom Android Development] Kinsman1:
I can confirm the compatibility of the roms. I have an MZ600 that I've had forever. Fact is, it was a developmental copy labeled very clearly " Confidential Motorola Restricted Property: Not For Sale". It was under a Verizon contract when I got it. As I began upgrading it I found that it had a Stingray Rom. At the moment I have it running a Wingray Rom a la Cyanogenmod 4.4.4.

I also have an MZ604 that came with a Stingray Rom installed. It's presently running a Wingray Rom a la Cyanogenmod 4.4.4.

Both of these are flawless, except that the build quality of the MZ604 is much more solid, and the beehive patterning on the back does not hold fingerprints and feels better in your hand.
[Xoom Android Development] philnolan3d:
Random question. My Xoom freezes up every couple minutes for a minute or so.. I tried a factory reset and that helped a little. Do you think a new rom like this might fix it?
[Xoom Android Development] tomtreas:
Playing Youtube tonight, I couldn't get the audio to switch to the 3.5mm when I plugged it in. It just stayed with the tablet speakers.
[Xoom Android Development] buffal0b1ll:
This is amazing! Thanks for this!

With the recommended Gapps I too, had a updater script error on install but things seemed ok on boot. Overnight, though, Play Store updated itself and this broke Google Play Services and Settings.Accounts had no Google in sight.

I started over and found that this combination worked best for me and without any updater binary errors in recovery. Clean flash: ROM, TkNanoGapps, TKGoogleKeyboardAddon (this addon worked around an unstoppable AOSP keyboard force close that I got when I attempted with TKNanoGapps only).
[Xoom Android Development] Kingsman1:
Boy! You've done an incredible job Schischu! I've downloaded everything to my old Xoom except the GAPPS file. For some reason this file doesn't download successfully. Any suggestions? As soon as I get this file, since I have 2 Xooms now, I'll be able to install, and maybe be able to be of some meaningful help to you.

God Bless,

Rob

Again, Thanks so much. You've been such a good friend to all of us
[Xoom Android Development] mi6300m:
This is great! It's now making me want to keep this tablet a bit longer and sorta take it away from my daughter. Haa! One problem i'm having is that Plex doesn't seem to work with this rom. It sees the server but no matter what I try to play from it it says an error occured. I back flashed it to a Non-Lollipop rom for this tablet and it plays fine. Hopefully this next update will fix it.

Also i noticed this rom doesn't detect my 5GHZ wi-fi network. I'm guessing this is a known bug?
[Xoom Android Development] pots22:
Thanks' Schischu

Very nice job,

I flash on my Umts Everest, the reactivity is very good. (same error when flash Gapp but reboot normaly)

Camera stock crash google camera also

But normal for an Alpha version.

Impatient to see the ROM evolution :):):)
[Xoom Android Development] unonice:
Keep up the great work .. we appreciate all your efforts , time , and hard work .. looking forward to bug/error fixes and updates .. Continued Success .. Long Live XOOM .. THANKS Schischu , YOUR AWSOME !!
[Xoom Android Development] stanl56:
Schischu, This is amazing! Super smooth operations. Thank you so much for your efforts to keep the Xoom up to date. Anxiously awaiting updates!
[Xoom Android Development] Kingsman1:
Hi Schischu,

Figured I'd join the revolution. I downloaded the install files last night, and put them to work.

Schischu, you've outdone yourself. This is a wonderful Alpha. Certainly there are a very few flukes, but all in all this is shaping up to be a fine Rom. Very smooth, and polished.

Here are the problem areas I've observed so far. Most of these you've already pointed out.

1. The GAPPS file you recommended is a 404. I used the latest Stock GAPPS. There are no apparent problems. The installation was flawless.

2. Bluetooth speakers do not work. Sound only comes from internal speakers.

3. Headphone jack doesn't work at all

4. Even though the volume is full up, there is very little sound coming from the speakers.

5. Dolphin Browser only works properly if Jetpack is disabled.

I'm going to put this Xoom through the ringer in the next few days, but you've done well so far..

A very beautiful effort Schischu. I just can't wait to see the finished product. What you've done so far is just incredible.

Blessings,

Rob

Some observations.

Battery drained to 0 overnight.

Charged and installed Trickster Mod.

Left off charger and checked later. Device not deep sleeping.

Changed gov/io to ondemand/deadline to see if that makes a difference.

AND OH SNAP!! I went to Trickster>Specific>Wake Settings and applied dt2w and it works!!! Holy WOW! I know this may complicate and contribute to device not sleeping in my other test above so I turned it back off. But still, WOW!

EDIT: Sometimes dt2w brings up a whiteout screen, just noticed that. But sweep to wake also works and does not bring up the whiteout screen for me yet.
[Xoom Android Development] Schischu:
Guys, you are too fast for me ;)

Yes sdcard does not work, however I know what needs to be changed as I already done this for note 10.1 and tab s.

Regarding gapps, I will have to implement the opengappsnpatch as again on note and tab s.

Reboot to recovery and bootloader, this is currently wanted behaviour for development purposes. Else I would get crazy.

So please be a little patient with me, I have solutions read. ;)
[Xoom Android Development] Alxoom33:
I got same errors flashing the zip in TWRP 2.8.1. Or by extracting the image file from the .tar.gz dile and flashing the image file in Flashify. Both resulted in TWRP 3.0.2 booting up successfully. However, neither was usable. Since they could not mount internal or external storage or data.

I am using Team EOS 4.4.4 big-part with my Wingray.
[Xoom Android Development] briandotcom0:
Regarding root, on marshmallow, it needs the systemless SuperSU. I believe it's still labled beta. You should not install the one twrp suggests. Sometimes it even asks to install SuperSU after you've flashed the beta.

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=64161125

Also, I ran into problems with bootloops flashing things (maybe just gapps) after first boot, so now when I flash a marshmallow ROM, I make sure to flash everything (ROM, SuperSU, xposed, gapps, kernel modules) before booting system for the first time.

Hope that helps anyone experiencing bootloops.

Can't post in that thread. Is that purposeful, or an error?
[Xoom Android Development] azncarjunkie:
Thought I'd add onto this since I had the same problem but after blowing half my day (it's only my second real run through of rooting/flashing a droid device) I figured out that there are a few differences between TWRP and CWM other than asthetics and flip-flopping between the two I was able to get what I needed to get done.

Main problem was that I couldn't get /System to mount. After flashing to CWM I figured out I could format and then mount with CWM, but my SD Card wouldn't read in CWM. So flashing back to TWRP I could now remount /System again and the SDCard was available.

During my first ROM flash attempt I got the same errors as the picture posted. I formatted each partition one at a time and then remounted (if format/mount doesn't work in TWRP then switch to CWM and try there). I don't know enough to know why it worked in one but not the other but hey...I've got a 5.1.1 running. Maybe I'll try the Marshmallow one next but don't really know the difference. Hope it helps someone.

[Xoom Android Development] Jigoral:
I am wondering if Ive done something wrong. I am trying to upgrade OEM 4.1.2 to this rom. Ive successfully flashed TWRP recovery, and can get to it reliably. I wiped everything except the SD card, and flashed in 5.1 Omni from here. Flashed in OpenGAPPs 5.1 Nano, and SuperSU. Now, the instructions say to wait a long time... but its been close to 2 days now, and the system is still sitting here on the Omni boot screen, winking at me. Recovery isn't giving me any error messages, so I don't know what's going on. Could somebody give me some advice? Im fairly certain its user error, and I just don't know what I'm doing wrong.

Edit: Forgot to mention. Using Wifi Xoom 1 Wingray.
[Xoom Android Development] wanb1i:
Same thing happened to me. I held the power & volume up key to reboot, then installed the kitkat version. Works like a charm, smooth & fast, even the camera works! :cool:
[Xoom Android Development] Jigoral:
I had to install the CyanogenMod 4.4.4 first, then Omni 5.1.1 would install. Seems to run fine, crashed once when I turned on BlueTooth and Wifi at the same time. Since then, its run phenominally on 5.1.1 with no other quirks. I never use the camera on my Xoom. The rear cam is usually covered by my folio cover, and the front cam is nigh worthless in quality, so I never turn it on either. I still can't get stupid Fallout Shelter to run though (which was the whole reason I did this). Installs fine through Google Play Store, but tells me the hardware isn't supported after install. Did that on OEM 4.1.2 as well, so yeah. Screw that game. :(

hi guys, is this rom stable? can I trust and install it for a friend (I don't own this tablet that is why I am asking, never explored rom for this device before)? feedback will be appreciated. If not which latest stable rom would you recommend?
[Xoom Android Development] brewer75:
The 5.1.1 and 6.0.1 builds are both alphas and personally I do not believe they are full functioning and stable enough for daily, dependable use. Whether these builds garner additional attention and refinement still remains to be seen, but at this time I would not suggest that you go above 4.4.4. There is no more activity on the 4.4.4 front as far as I know, but I believe it is the most advanced "full featured, stable, and dependable" rom for the xoom at this time. Both the 5.1.1 and 6.0.1 are fantastic for alpha roms, but the still need work to move from the alpha to something that you can really fully use on a daily basis. I suggest you check the out http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2580256 so your friend can enjoy their Xoom.

System Failed

I have a Stingray which was on Omni 4.4.4 BigPart.

Did an install of Omni 5.1.1 over the Omni 4.4.4 plus the gapps and the SuperSU and the update failed.

Did a complete wipe and tried a fresh install of the Omni 5.1.1 and it failed.

Did a complete wipe and tried to install my backup of Omni 4.4.4 and it failed.

Next step was to go to Advanced Wipe and did a wipe of data successfully and then a wipe of System and it failed.

So here I am in TWRP with everything failing and obviously to me, I do not want just reboot because nothing is there. Therefore I need direction as to what to do at this point. Help?

I wipe my internal storage. Rebooted into Recovery and am now successful. I will now install 5.1.1. The combination of the ROM, gapps, and SU failed. Rebooted into recovery and installed Omni 4.4.4 and was successful. I will then update from there. Solved so far.
