Just upgraded to 1.4.0 still not working.. wait.. quick question..

If I go into Settings--Storage-- Should I see my SD card like I normally do on an android device?

If I use either Astro or Root Explorer I CAN see the SD card. Also if I boot into recovery I can see the SD card as well. Is this what is considered working on the Xoom?

WAIT!!! Now the script is working.. Yippie.. Guess I needed the 1.4.0.. Great stuff. Ok.. thanks for the help.. I am off and running now!! (Though I do wish the SD card showed up in Settings/Storage like other Android devices. I guess that I coming.)

And now getting 3264 quadrant score!! whoa!
[Xoom Android Development] joeski27:
Ok so I've flashed 1.4.0 and all seems to be well with regard to seeing and accessing /sdcard/external, however I seem to have lost my USB host capabilities. I used to be able to plug in my adapter into the micro usb port and then connect to my external card reader (to read, for example, CF cards from my DSLR) but now it isn't connecting at all; the light on the card reader isn't even coming on - completely dead. Any ideas what happened?? Obviously something changed, but I have no idea what it could be. Hopefully someone has a troubleshooting tip or two that I could look into.

By the way, I also ran the script, and it seemed to run just fine (I got a "script ran cleanly" response after running it), but that was it. Was something else supposed to pop up or occur after running this script? I don't quite get it.
[Xoom Android Development] scassel:
BRD you are the man!

Flashed 1.4

Downloaded scripter and set up (command MUST be exact)

I now have "F:" when I run my script

I can't wait to see what comes next!
[Xoom Android Development] lokko21:
Trying to flash tru recovery and I keep getting this E:Error in /sdcard /Titmat_Xoom-v1.4.0.zip

any Ideas I run the script first.

Edit: Flashed manually ADB and its working cool, run the script and the drive shows on my PC.

Thank you very much.

Cannot activate 3G UK model

Hi,

I have managed to get the kernel working, wifi running etc. but I cannot activate the 3G anymore. It just sits on the activate device search. I have a feeling it might be to do with the difference between uk and us networks? I did notice it says "change the cdma roaming mode" in the options so I'm guessing it is not looking at the gsm bands?

Thanks,

Matt
[Xoom Android Development] ghoticov:
Yes, I actually did it twice to make sure I was copying it correct.
[Xoom Android Development] ghoticov:
Ok, maybe that was the deal... it did go to two lines when I typed the script.

EDIT: Just tried to do what you said and it would not let me enter it as one line. Here is exactly how my command window looks:

am start -n com.android.systemui/ .usb.

UsbStorageActivity

I don't see a way to make sure the script stays on one line.
[Xoom Android Development] robbiev80:
[...]com.android.systemui/<NO SPACE HERE>.usb.[...]
[Xoom Android Development] ghoticov:
ugh! lol That was it! It looked like there was a space after the / ... hard to tell sometime. :)

[Xoom Android Development] ghoticov:
hahahahahaha its all good :)
[Xoom Android Development] blakejohnson86:
If you guys have Tasker installed, you can skip using Scripter and create a task in Tasker to do the same thing. Install the "Locale Execute" plugin, and Tasker will be able to use that.

The command would be

!am start -n com.android.systemui/.usb.UsbStorageActivity

After you create the task, you can create a Tasker widget on your homescreen to execute that task.
[Xoom Android Development] ghoticov:
So I have a question. :)

What does having this show up as Mass Storage do that is any different than it showing up as "external" or "sdcard" before?

I could drag and drop files before flashing this kernel so I am not sure exactly what the advantages are with having this?

Before (with 1.3.2) when I plugged up my xoom, I just looked under "Device Storage" and my external SDCard showed up under that and I could drag and drop files.

Now, it shows up as an "external" folder and it also (when I run the script) now shows up as "F:" (XOOMSDCARD).

I guess I am confused as to what the differences are. :)
[Xoom Android Development] joeski27:
one other little issue I just noticed with the new kernel. In the previous version, the bottom charge LED remained on while charging even when the tablet was powered on and sitting on the dock. Now it's back to no LED being on unless charging with the tablet powered off. Hope this gets fixed, really liked having the led to tell me the charge status.
[Xoom Android Development] joeski27:
Yeah wondering the same thing , haven't found a real explanation of this yet.

Also, am I the only one that no longer has usb host working since this last update? Used to be able to connect my adapter to my xoom to my card reader but now nothing works. Really hoping someone can help me out here.
[Xoom Android Development] robbiev80:
Yea mine still works. It's under /usbOTG
[Xoom Android Development] jlaw904:
Quadrant scores 3100-3300 and Linpack is 63 with performance gov and set to 1.5

Thanks! :D
[Xoom Android Development] joeski27:
Yeah I see that directory but hardware wise no connection is being made. And I know it isn't my adapter because it has worked perfectly before. I mean normally the little led on the card reader would come on as soon as you plugged it in but now nothing. :(
[Xoom Android Development] boredmug:
ok, just flashed this and its fast but now when I try to download things off the net it says USB storage is required. I'm not using my sdcard because the 32 gig is on order and the 16 gig is in my phone. Thought it was still supposed to use internal storage? How do I fix this?

Nvm. I'm stupid
[Xoom Android Development] TheBurgh:
Step are to flash 1.4 in cwm then create script
[Xoom Android Development] p8ntballah21:
Works great! Thanks for all your all hard work!

I do have one question. Will Clockwork include this external folder in my backups?
[Xoom Android Development] twinkyz1979:
It just forced reboot on me. I was just switching screens on the home screen when it froze and rebooted. :(

It gets past the boot image and locks up at the lock screen.

Any thoughts on how to correct this problem? Even tried re-flashing 1.3.2 with no luck.
[Xoom Android Development] stevefxp:
Hi all,

Running the 1.4.0 kernel and things look good. Quadrant score is just over 3000 when set to performance. Cannot wait to see where we can go in development. Great job all!

[Xoom Android Development] Moricon:
okay I am going crazy here. I think I have the order of things messes up but not the brain power to figure it out.

1. I root via the 1 click method fine. It installs version 1.3

the flash clockwook recovery

then try to flash version 1.4 following the instructions in the 1st post but get can't mount sd card error

also try flashing via kernel manger but that is not working either. still reads version 1.3

thanks for any help. yes i know i am missing something
[Xoom Android Development] mhausig:
Probably to be expected from any update that affects storage settings, I've been using launcher pro plus as my default launcher and the latest upgrade made it unrecognized all of the Widgets in in use other than its own. This is apparently a common problem with LPP when Widgets are stored on sdcards. I'm pretty sure other rom upgrades have done the same thing.
[Xoom Android Development] c0t0d0s2:
Me again. Still having the camera problems with this kernel, but I figured something out.

If I have "store location" turned on, and the GPS tries to acquire, the camera goes haywire, like it keeps resetting. If I manage to turn "save location" off, the camera goes to normal.

Works great with my 32gb sdcard; however now it finally says in Storage (via Settings) -7479552000.00B for Applications and a total of 28.42GB for total.
[Xoom Android Development] joeski27:
Continued tinkering, and USB host still not working for me. Can't say for sure that its this kernel, but I can say that it was working before flashing the 1.4 update. This really sucks.:mad:
[Xoom Android Development] kev0153:
awesome

Two questions

1. Can I delete sdcard2?

2. Does the mass storage trick work on a Mac?
[Xoom Android Development] robbiev80:
1. Yes. I did with no problems.

2. Sorry don't have a mac. I would like to know if this works on Ubuntu though.
[Xoom Android Development] insty:
1. Yes

2. Works perfectly fine on Snow Leopard.
[Xoom Android Development] siscim23:
So I had no problems flashing 1.3.2 a few days ago. I try to flash 1.4.0 now and I'm getting E:error in /sdcard/tiamat_xoom-v1.4.0.zip

Tried downloading through the Xoom, it downloaded as eopFAT.zip, but I got the same error.
[Xoom Android Development] Crazypinoy9:
How did you get it to fit on one line? I don't have a space where you did and I have it copied EXACTLY. I can get to "am start -n com.android.systemui/.usb.UsbStorageActivi" and once I enter in the t and y it moves to the second line.

When I run the script it just sits at the "running script" popup like it's gonna work but nothing happens.
[Xoom Android Development] lokko21:
I had the same problem I don't know if it was cuz I run the script first, but went ahead and push it tru ADB and worked good, I didn't had to recreate the script, just click on the created one and F: drive showed on my computer.
[Xoom Android Development] siscim23:
Yeah I saw your post but I don't want to resort back to adb lol. Also, I haven't created the script yet.

'Mass storage enabled in Android...'

Does that mean there's no need to reboot to mount as was required previously? If so, I might finally take the plunge after reading this thread every day since it started. Last week I found an 8 gig SD card from my old phone that needs to be put to good use.

Did anyone experience memory leak issue after updated to 1.4.0?

My xoom lost response after about 1 hour.

I rebooted it, then checked free ram in the settings, the value was about 500M. I checked it every several minutes,and saw the free ram decreasing slowly. After about 1 hour, it dropped from 500M to 150M, and the xoom lost response.

Then I rebooted it again, and turned off the WiFi Tethering, It seemed that the leaking disappeared.
[Xoom Android Development] endine:
Hey guys, instead of using scripter for 1.4.0, I found an app that so far works well. The app is called auto mount! Woot woot!!

[Xoom Android Development] twinkyz1979:
i flashed back to stock and re-rooted then used the OG 1.5 overclock. Now everything works fine although i do not have the external sdcard but i can now run titanium backup which i never could b4.

might i suggest something needs to be thoroughly gone through and checked. it's kind of funny how i could not run titanium backup till i totally got away from tiamat.

Delete my post. I have my answer

It was a stupid question
[Xoom Android Development] funnycreature:
The only problem I encountered was that my autocorrect changed usb to USB while entering the commands in Scripter. So if anyone else has a problem with the script make sure your text is not changed during typing. I used Clockwork Mod to flash.

Unfortunately, as other mentioned, my Quadrant scores dropped as well to below 2400 now. I'll keep an eye out how it behaves!
[Xoom Android Development] xjack:
My 16GB is also working just fine.

My Applications is reading -2944755712.00B

28.42GB is the correct number for internal stoage. This is a workaround and thus won't show your sdcard in Storage.
[Xoom Android Development] xjack:
Confirmed as awesome and persistant after Xoom reboot.
[Xoom Android Development] cat2115:
Hi,

I don't care of backup. Do I need to install CWM since CWM can't mount my MicroSD card? I did it like 10 times and re root, still can't get it to mount. and yes i have a sdcard2 inside sdcard folder. Some1 said i need to format my microsd card from a droid phone. i do not know any1 with the phone.

however, I can use Kernel Manager to install tiamat 1.4.0. Then I will try Script or Auto Mount to mount my MicroSd card
[Xoom Android Development] cat2115:
Could you please guide me how to use Auto Mount to mount microsd card? do i still need to follow the guide like Script? thx
[Xoom Android Development] bwcorvus:
Cwm is not required now that we have kernel manager. It does have some nice options like backup, wiping, installing, and mounting.

[Xoom Android Development] funnycreature:
I seem to be plagued by more or less random rebooted since flashing 1.4.0. Maybe it has to do with unplugging it from usb without ejecting it first?

Also, would it be possible to include the NTFS hack in the Tiamat kernel? Can't link right now from the Xoom.

I had to re-install my Motorola drivers to see the sdcard on a PC when in ClockworkMod. I notice it saves backups to the external folder?
[Xoom Android Development] bigrushdog:
I experienced this several times. However, my testers were unable to duplicate it. But the bug is definitely there. It has something to do with unplugging usb, but ejecting it doesnt matter. It will do it even if MS is not mounted. Likely I am missing pieces of a driver. I am looking into it. However, at the moment, my gut just tells me that Mass Storage may end up going away if we can't get it right. Stability is my top priority. If we do decide to pull the plug on Mass Storage, I will create a separate branch for it and users may fork if they wish. Besides, MTP works perfect and both internal and external are accessible. Also, I have deternmined that we can not use native Android Mass Storage Mounting if we want it to work right. A third party solution (I think I saw an "automount" app floating around) will be needed. Just some thoughts... :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes:
[Xoom Android Development] bigrushdog:
I can not confirm 100% but have heard rumor on #xoom that it does. However, I need to look at the ramdisk because i think there is some gsm stuff in there making the UK model act weird.

Please help a french to understand as well as possible ;)

Hello guys,

First of all, please excuse me for my english , I'll try to explain the best I can ;)

Got my Xoom Wifi (MZ604 European/French, without the Verizon Logo) since few days, and I want to understand better the way to unlock, root, and flashing Tiamat to get my Xoom better.

I'm french, actually there's no french tutorial to explain how to unlock/root/flashing tiamat & CWM on Xoom Wifi.

So here I am to ask for your help to understand as well as possible how to flash my Xoom.

Firstly, I have an HTC Desire, so I'm familiarised with adb/fastboot, flash roms and recovery on my Desire.

Secondly, I don't have atually a MicroSD for my Xoom, but as I read it's not necessary for the whole procedure.

So there're all informations I get on this board, and the order I think it's the good way for getting the best from my Xoom :p

1. Unlock Bootloader

This is necessary for flashing CWM Recovery and Tiamat.

Vol- + Power

fastboot oem unlock

fastboot oem lock (to relock device if needed)

2. Flashing ClockworkMod Recovery v3.0.2.5

adb reboot bootloader
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot reboot
adb reboot recovery

3. Installing Tiamat Xoom 1.4.0

1. adb reboot recovery (reboot into CWM)

2. Go into "mounts and storage"

3. Select "mount USB storage"

4. Copy/Paste Tiamat_Xoom-v1.4.0.zip at root of SD card (internal)

5. "Go Back" then go into "install zip from sdcard" then "choose zip from sdcard"

6. Navigate to the zip file and select it. It will now flash.

7. Back out to main menu and reboot.

Ok so am I right since here ? Is this the correct order to apply for this ?

And so I've got 3 questions :

1. I don't understand when I get root (superuser.apk) in this procedure. Is there anything else to do, and at which time in this procedure to get Root on Wifi Xoom ?

2. If anything goes wrong, is there any way to restore stock, like flashing some .img using fastboot/adb ?

3. Is it necessary to relock the device after doing all this ? (fastboot oem lock)

Thank you guys for helping me to clarify this ;)

I read that it works nice together but I was also wondering if the changed modules (or files?) can be included in the Tiamat kernel, just to safe downloading from different sources. I am thrilled to try it out tonight! But again, I had at least one more reboot, this time without doing anything :( I guess it's time soon to bring the Xoom back to stock and start from scratch installing Tiamat first and then the rest.

1: You'll want to root after unlocking. Look here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=968342

There's also a 1 click method here that will unlock, root, and install the Tiamat kernel here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1011196

2: Not sure for your model... There are some stock wifi images floating around, but I'm pretty sure the European models need a different .sbf file. If you do find it, you can install with RSD Lite (4.9 or above - not hard to find).

3: No need to re-lock afterwards.

[Xoom Android Development] MitchRapp:
stupid question coming from a linux/adb newb (me)

do I need to flash it through recovery (1.4.0) or can I just do it the step-by-step way like the previous ones (after extracting the files that is):

Start cmd (command prompt)

Simply copy and paste the next steps, line by line:

cd C:\temp\

adb shell

mkdir /data/media/sdcard2

exit

adb reboot bootloader

(wait until Motorola logo shows)

fastboot flash boot boot.img

fastboot reboot

(wait for reboot)

adb remount

adb push bcm4329.ko /system/lib/modules/bcm4329.ko

adb push tun.ko /system/lib/modules/tun.ko

adb push scsi_wait_scan.ko /system/lib/modules/scsi_wait_scan.ko

adb push cifs.ko /system/lib/modules/cifs.ko

adb push vold.fstab /system/etc/vold.fstab

adb reboot

I remember saving those instructions because they were just so damn easy.
