[Xoom Android Development] N-Gage4ever:
Hey bro thank you for your message. Your efforts are so valuable. I ask you only one thing. Please make your rom for MZ601(everest) users too.. There is even a marshmallow rom but it's not compitible with Mz601. It's so sad because we wanna use our 3g feauture with these roms. Also while you build the rom you can make comminication with other rom devs too.. So you can build the rom faster.. Good luck!

Everest

I do not have a Mz601 Everest. I wish I had, but I do not have one and therefore I cannot test 3g...
[Xoom Android Development] N-Gage4ever:
I see so as I said you can work with other rom devs. For example these roms have everest version:

Their devs can help you about mz601 version. Also there isn't a huge hardware diffrence except 3g support between mz601 and other models.. So your work isn't hard.. Thx

I compiled the rom again with some difficulty. It is revision r38.

I have to rest a little more today, but I will try to fix some errors tonight, like the camera not working, or the headphones using Schischu fixes in Marshmallow.

This rom has nothing new yet, but maybe it goes faster, I do not know. I had to fix many, many errors in the frameworks/opt/net and frameworks/opt/telephony parts... but I had a half backup so it was not that hard anyway. I still remembered the long pain fixing those functions, so nothing new.

I had to use brunch command instead of make otapackage to compile. With make otapackage the compilation would never boot. Until I thought about the brunch command and how I used it in the past to make it correctly, I had a hard time.

Anyway, there you have it. I will post more zips in that directory in case I fix something else. (or I break something else) :D

Which xposed-can be used with this version. The one with the last one does not and I tried the xposed-v74-sdk22-arm which I had used before with Lollipop but did not work for me went into a boot loop. What will provide success?
[Xoom Android Development] TheDevFreak:
Does this build have HW decoding?

I used xposed-v85-sdk22-arm on this rom in the past. NOTE: With this rom you must wipe all have twrp bigpart and flash EVERYTHING at the same time (flash rom, DO NOT REBOOT, flash gapps, DO NOT REBOOT, FLASH SuperSu. Optional: Want Xposed? DO NOT REBOOT, flash xposed, reboot. Don't want xposed, reboot.

Any chance for OmniROM in Everest?

Wow! Amazing work! I could not believe that OmniROM was brought thanks to you to Motorola Xoom users! Unfortunately I am an even older Everest user and I really wish I could use it. Does anyone know if anything will be developed for Everest users? Thanks to you my device your brought back to life with 4.4.4 android. Keep up the good work! Thanks! :good:
[Xoom Android Development] TheDevFreak:
I have used this on a Everest device. You just lose the 3g/4g capability.
[Xoom Android Development] docmagda:
Thank you so much for your message!!! That sounds amazing! Good to hear that this is possible! I think I will soon give it a try since I do not really use 3G.

I am really excited about this! Thanks everyone for your hard work. I was really disappointed when I found out that Motorola would not be supporting the tablet and thanks to the constant work of the developers this has become possible and my tablet is back to life! :D
[Xoom Android Development] Manuellama:
Hello everyone.

I compiled the rom again. Since Schischu fixed the headphones part in the Marshmallow compilation, I used part of his sources to build a Lollipop OmniRom revision 38 the way I did it some months ago. This time, with headphones working.

I have to deal with other issues in the rom like camera not working, hw videodecoding, but this is what I have now.

https://www.dropbox.com/sh/rj6si1d9fjohi26/AAC5Jk3wvU2sxMphriqDuW_la?dl=0

Please test it.
[Xoom Android Development] lfpeacemaker:
someone working on this, i think im in a drean, is schischu working on xoom?
[Xoom Android Development] Manuellama:
Yes, Schischu was working on Marshmallow version.

But he is not available for contact or maybe he is busy with other things now.

I chose the Lollipop version to compile since I was most used to it and I had a backup with the changes I had to do to get revision r38.

There are too many changes in Marshmallow, specially with the SDCard thing.

So I do what I can. It is 02:45 a.m. Spanish time, I have a cold and I am still working on this... insomnia.
[Xoom Android Development] lfpeacemaker:
this is amazing, i will test and report, thank you very much, here in brazil is 1:51 am, same deal as you
[Xoom Android Development] shpitz461:
Thanks manuellama!

LP should be much better, MM is garbage on many devices. Would be great if you could get the camera to work.
[Xoom Android Development] lfpeacemaker:
[MENTION=6201636]manuella[/MENTION], i installed the room and is amazing, if have camera and 3g will be perfect, i dont notice any bug

How to activate the 3G?
[Xoom Android Development] ro.chi:
download file labeled Wingray ... with 3G support?
[Xoom Android Development] Blue Lion:
i have tested it every thing is working great....except for HW decoding and camera...many thanks for your efforts man :)
[Xoom Android Development] Manuellama:
I am trying to compile the nvidia codecs for hardware decoding.

They are not recognized now. The codecs are now different from what they used to be. They are built in a more complex way.

And the camera probably depends on these propietary codecs as encoders and decoders. So maybe fixing the nvidia codecs will allow the camera to have metadata not empty (expecting non-empty characteristics bug).

If anyone knows how to build a custom codec for Android as a OMX (openmax) plugin, please tell me.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OpenMAX

The proprietary libraries exists with prefixes like nvmm but I do not know how to link them or compile them.
[Xoom Android Development] Blue Lion:
can you use some resources from this ROM..it has same hardwares as Xoom :

Further Development and Updates

I really appreciate all that the developers and other have done to keep breathing some life in our Xoom's. Since there has been no communication for a while regarding further work here, is it safe to assume we've reached the end?
[Xoom Android Development] Manuellama:
I apologize for the silence. My pc is on repair. It was making too much noise again, and I need concentration to fix errors and compile. I think it will be fixed today and I will be back on compiling. Sorry for the delay.
[Xoom Android Development] shpitz461:
As long as the tablet still works and does its purpose, not having the latest and greatest is fine with me :)

I think someone mentioned the Asus Transformer that has the exact same hardware as our XOOM's, and they have fully functioning MM, not sure about N, so would be great if someone can try to port their roms into ours.
[Xoom Android Development] Manuellama:
Oh, that's a great find! I was looking for the MM version of the Asus Transformer after I saw your message.

The Asus Transformer is the TF101 version.

I think I could use Timduru's sources from the KatKiss TF101 MM compilation and make some changes to port it to the Motorola Xoom.

If I am able to port it I will give him credits.

I am now using a laptop, a Acer Travelmate 5720... Still waiting for the PC to be repaired. I think this evening (3 hours later from now) I will be able to have it again.
[Xoom Android Development] shpitz461:
There is no rush, whatever you can do will be great, at any point in the future, no pressure :)
[Xoom Android Development] matt4321:
Would be cool to see it done, don't think there's many of us hardcore Xoom people left haha
[Xoom Android Development] shpitz461:
Still use it as a desk clock, and play Bubble Breaker. I've been running 'L Speed beta' app which really brings some life to the tablet. Amazing this old of a tablet still works fairly well.

The kids sometimes use it for youtube-kids and some basic games, works well.

How do you have camera? camera never working on 5. and 6
[Xoom Android Development] Manuellama:
Camera is not working...
[Xoom Android Development] amd444:
thanks & info please

Hi, I appreciate all of the hard work you do and hope that you can answer the following.

My xoom, currently on 4.4.4 is having major problems with services crashing all of the time

I have rebuilt it numerous times but the same issue arises.

I am wanting to save my xoom and possibly install 5.1, but can you tell me what is currently not working in the rom?

eg: headphone, hdmi, camera

thank you
[Xoom Android Development] Manuellama:
I am using Schischu's sources, that's the reason I post my compilations in this forum. It would not be nice for me to do any other way. But things that do not work and work:

Headphones work in the latest zip I posted in the forum.

HDMI does not work.

Netflix I remember it worked.

Camera not working, needs proprietary libraries or who knows.

I posted a twrp 3.0.2. recovery with SD card support in the MM forum.

There is a version with MM in the latest post of that forum, the same issues, plus a bug with the SD card, but maybe more battery life.I am now working on MM. I need to solve some bugs I think I know how to fix.
[Xoom Android Development] lfpeacemaker:
Sorry a said it in the wrong place
[Xoom Android Development] shpitz461:
Hi Manuellama, were you able to play with some of the TF101 sources/drivers?
[Xoom Android Development] Manuellama:
Did not try.

I fixed the TWRP 3.0.2 to allow SDCard. It is in the MM forum, one of the last posts.

I am trying to compile Omnirom N for Xoom taking advantage of the new recovery. I will inform you all as soon as possible of the advances.

Since I try first roms to compile in the dedicated server, it is very fast for sources to download.
[Xoom Android Development] shpitz461:
Many thanks!
[Xoom Android Development] SantinoInc:
Need a little help. I'm on the proper BigPart Recovery. When I flash the ROM it goes through fine but when I flash the Gapps I get an error message in TWRP. I made sure the MD5 is correct. The message I get in TWRP says the following in red:

E: Error executing updater binary in zip '/sdcard/p75xx-gapps.....

Anyone have any advice?
[Xoom Android Development] anno73:
Same issue here too. After constant errors about some google apps have crashed I wanted to update from 4.4.4 to 5.1.1. But I cannot install GApps :-/

You can use this omni rom zip, it has working headphones from Schischu Aosp 6.0.. If you flash gapps, I do not know if it will work or not now. I have to test it again. You have also twrp 3.0.2 with sd card support.

Please take a look.
[Xoom Android Development] sebasGST:
Hey, im here with my Xoom, what is the best ROM? With all working? Thanks actually in AOSP 6.0 (NO OMNI)
[Xoom Android Development] Manuellama:
I put a dropbox post before but I have to compile another version soon, I am trying to make it much more stable.

I am sending my pc to repair tomorrow to have liquid cooling installed. I will inform you all soon.
[Xoom Android Development] andPS2:
unfortunately headphones dont work for me neither in the 5.1 version nor in the 6 version

from shishu

only in 4.4.4 headphones work

its the only showstopper preventing me from really upgrading...

as i remember some ppl reported success other reported non success

original apple headphones were supposed to work better if i remember it right
[Xoom Android Development] Manuellama:
Depends on the rings of the headphone jack. 3 rings work, 2 ring it does not. I think
[Xoom Android Development] Manuellama:
Ok. I am back to compiling. I will start with Omnirom before handling Marshmallow again. Omni was always "easier" for me.

I still remember all the files I had to change... I have them in a backup zip, this time I will fix the sources and upload them into github.

So anybody who wants can build the rom.

Issue with google play services

First of all, thank so much to the developers of the ROM for bringing android 5 to the old xoom! I'm trying to setup it in my xoom but when updating google play services it start failing and showing a lot of messages with "google play services has stopped...". Is there any way to get google play services working in the ROM? Or we must forget of using Google's apps such as gmail or drive?
[Xoom Android Development] Manuellama:
If you update Google Play services, it will show error alerts.

I am trying to fix it, I am currently the only maintainer (I think) of this rom developed by Schischu...

It seems an error of libjavacore, according to other developer. I am not an expert but I will try to investigate it further.

This seem to be the fix, but I have to try it.

https://github.com/temasek/android_libcore/commit/4d46de25bdb6d3b8150612a49849e251dcfcb035
[Xoom Android Development] slow1234:
Hopefully you find a solution. Google Play Services has been busted since early February for all Tegra2 devices running both stock and custom ROMS from Android 4.x to 6.x. Some owners of ASUS Transformers claim it is due to NEON related code introduced by Google in the post-Feb 9th versions of Google Play Services - Tegra2 devices like the Xoom and Transformer apparetnly can't handle the NEON code. Google claims it's a vendor/ROM issue. However, vendors do not provide Google Play Services updates - Google does!
[Xoom Android Development] Manuellama:
Yeah, Neon. Like Unity when stopped working on Tegra2 devices...

The same NEON code that disallow compatibility on those devices.
[Xoom Android Development] Pagoaz:
Manuellama,

I am no expert and not a developer but I do have a question. I rooted because my xoom became slow and buggy. But, I never had problems with google play store until I unlocked the bootloader. After rooted with CM11 it worked fine for a few days and then the problems started again. Is it possible we are all having the same problem due to an unlocked bootloader?
[Xoom Android Development] Manuellama:
Good question. Let me check it later.

I will inform you about this issue.
[Xoom Android Development] Pagoaz:
This may be worth checking out I think it may be related.

[Xoom Android Development] Manuellama:
For the Google Play Services has stopped thing:

Go to Applications:

Find Google Play Services. Uninstall updates // Disable

Not the best way now, but...

If you want to use Play Store, uninstall updates from Play Services, download the apps you want and disable again.

Should be a better way to do it, but I do not know how to do it now.
[Xoom Android Development] Manuellama:
I can confirm it works at this moment.

[Xoom Android Development] Manuellama:
http://www.apkmirror.com/apk/google...s-10-5-42-230-149175906-android-apk-download/

I used this one. Nodpi, Android 5.

I think this is kind of unofficial, but I think that it is working now well.

At the moment, no more Play Services has stopped.
[Xoom Android Development] dc-:
Hooray, this worked. I had signed up for the Play Services beta program earlier and I tried the latest last week to no avail. But I just updated again and now it works!!

Because I am on the beta program, I just uninstalled all updates to Play Services, then clicked on the first notification from another app complaining that Play Services is too old. That let me install the latest update, then I rebooted and voila.

I'm happily running 5.1.1 again. When is the Nougat update coming? :) :) :)
[Xoom Android Development] Manuellama:
I compiled Nougat zip once but it did not boot at all. Need more expertise on this matter.

Luckily, I teamed with another user of this forum and he is more experienced in Kernel, so I can compile and he can debug the kernel better than myself.

Probably we can get some satisfactory Nougat rom soon.

;)
[Xoom Android Development] dog-man:
When I try to install it, I get an error message :- There was a problem while parsing the package.

I am probably trying to install it the wrong way. How do I install it to replace the existing faulty google play services?
[Xoom Android Development] Manuellama:
I installed p75 gapps, installed this apk, and then let the Play Store to update later.

Maybe you have a broken apk, so I am uploading it here now. Here is called services.apk.

https://www.dropbox.com/sh/rj6si1d9fjohi26/AAC5Jk3wvU2sxMphriqDuW_la?dl=0

P75 gapps is here too.
[Xoom Android Development] dog-man:
Services.apk is not there?
[Xoom Android Development] Manuellama:
Now it is.

It was uploading some minutes ago.
[Xoom Android Development] dog-man:
I still get that error message.

I am using 'File Manager', should I use a different method to install?
[Xoom Android Development] Manuellama:
Documents.

It is installed with the rom. Maybe it is because of the gapps. Try to install the gapps I sent you, then install that services.apk.

I joined the google beta group and have just received the beta version. I will test and see if it is now ok.
[Xoom Android Development] Manuellama:
Ah good, then. ;)
[Xoom Android Development] dog-man:
Yes, all working fine again. :D

I had convinced myself to get the new Samsung Tab 3 when it comes out. I may not now, as I only use my xoom at work during night shifts and it pretty much does everything I want it to.

Although, it would be nice to have something a little faster and slicker than the xoom. :D

A lot of great info on the first post. Is there a "how-to" for a newbie to learning how to install into a Motorola Xoom tablet?

I am curious if it works on a tablet with stock Android version 4.1.2. Thanks for the help.
[Xoom Android Development] gmaxjp:
First, you'd better to check this to obtain basic knowledge:

hMotorola Xoom/Flashing Guide

Also, recent custom roms require repartitioning and know about this:

BigPart Repartition Upgrade and Resource Center

Some of twrp or recovery softrware can not maintain bigpart properly and potentially have some problems for SDcard handling. Try other "bigpart" version of recovery in such cases.

I think the most functional and stable custom rom is... based on CM11/Android 4.4.4. So I recommend to try this stable custom rom first and then dare another cool and newer roms if you like adventure :cool:

Good luck,

Max

[Xoom Android Development] Manuellama:
I will start to compile the rom for Lollipop and Marshmallow next week.

I am thinking about opening a new thread for Lollipop and Marshmallow, since Schischu is removing every link of the rom from the threads.

Give me some time, I could start this weekend maybe, but surely next week I will be back on compiling.

I have to download sources and all. I will start with Lollipop which I know better.
[Xoom Android Development] thesamim:
I think that's a good idea.

I would also request that you make an announcement here for people who only come to the forum when they get post notifications. :)

Thanks in advance!
[Xoom Android Development] Manuellama:
I feel somehow bad because I did not "start the fire", as the Billy Joel song says.

I was not the main developer of the rom, so my status now leaves me like a kind of "traitor".

Not that I care much, but somehow...

Anyway, I am installing Ubuntu 17.04 now so I will start downloading sources again and compiling. I have a backup of the fixes, will upload it to the github, and I will post a manual with all the steps to compile the rom.

As soon as I have the zip tested and working, I will compile a lighter version or fix the bugs it has.

I wish that was the case for me. Maybe because I'm still on 4.4.4?

I flashed the rom along with the Gapps provided. I updated through the playstore and getting crashes, as well as not being able to login into my google account. Only way to get to stop, is to go into App Manager and disable.

i dont think u are a traitor at all - you're the only one keeping the xoom development alive right now (you and the guy who helps with the kernel sorry i forgot his name)

its rather strange of shishu to remove all his rom links without any statement

isnt it the idea of open source that other people take over if the maintainer has lost interest?

so continue with the good work - we are eagerly awaiting anything new

i think 5.1 is your best shot since the 6.0 rom was very unstable and 5.1 is a better base
