I use PNY but really anything thats rated HC (high capacity) is good
[Xoom Android Development] fsunoles157:
Off topic but how do I restore apps to its last update. The new fb forcecloses going into messages both on evo and xoom
[Xoom Android Development] Archangel:
Well if you have titanium back up you can use the last app that was saved esp if you do a batch back up of user apps and data. But if your trying to stop any updates you can also use titanium back up to freeze the app so it does not receive updates, hope that answers your question?
[Xoom Android Development] Archangel:
also you can, if you want, copy any nandroid back ups onto your computer and unzip them and go into the system or data app file and get the apk that way. Again you have to freeze the app if you do not want it to update. Sometimes devs or companies make updates that break in some systems and until it gets fixed this comes in handy
[Xoom Android Development] jawonder:
Ok got you, so just format the card and insert it and that's it ?
[Xoom Android Development] drziddo:
Now I cant see external device on my PC.

What is going on?

It shows Xoom, but when I go to the folder, looks empty, and that sucks.

One more thing, I cant move anything to sdcard2 since 1.3.2, not even the flashable kernel.

Please help.
[Xoom Android Development] Archangel:
yes thats it, i would recommend turn off your xoom then install and reboot just to make sure, hope it helps!
[Xoom Android Development] Archangel:
so when you click on the xoom when it is connected to your pc the folder does not have any files named clockwork, android, dcim, data, download? Nothing?
[Xoom Android Development] jawonder:
Ok thanks you were very helpful .
[Xoom Android Development] Archangel:
no problem, anytime!
[Xoom Android Development] fsunoles157:
Alright well thanks for recovery lol I completely blew up my xoom with 80 forcecloses. Restore and Im Perfect!
[Xoom Android Development] fsunoles157:
Just wondering. We can't move files to sdcard2 right. Just copy paste?
[Xoom Android Development] drziddo:
Exactly, and in device storage nothing is what I see, empty.

I mean, device storage, empty. And no sdcard with clockwork, android, dcim, data, etc...
[Xoom Android Development] Archangel:
yes copy/paste or ADB push
[Xoom Android Development] Archangel:
Ok did you create a sdcard2 file inside sdcard prior to flashing the new kernal? When you go into root explorer can you see your files and folders? If so then it is prob your sd card not mounted? New kernal flash should have not affected your recovery files and folder? Can you boot into clockwork recovery?
[Xoom Android Development] cat2115:
i follow the guide in post #1 and creating sdcard2 and yes i do saw the folder sdcard2 inside my wifi xoom. however when i insert 8gb micro sd, i did not see the 8gb micro sd card anywhere. also when i check the "about" it said "2.6.36.3Tiamat_xoom-v1.3.0-gc02ada7".. I installed v1.3.1.

What type of format should i use for sd card? ntfs or fat32?
[Xoom Android Development] fsunoles157:
1.3.1 will show up 1.3.0. Also why don't you. Download 1.3.2 and flash also your micro sdcard acts as sdcard2 anything you put in that folder will be on your external.
[Xoom Android Development] kntdookoo:
I cant get this going. I have succesfully flashed Cwork recovery and can get into via adb reboot recovery. But when i goto mounts and storage and try to mount USB it says:

E: unable to write to ums

What am i doing wrong? I have tried 3 sd cards all formatted in fat32.

My XOOM says im on kern 1.3.2 in About Tablet
[Xoom Android Development] el_bori1:
Yes, I had 1.3.1 already installed, I already have the sdcard2 folder inside the sdcard but when I'm in the recovery I can't flash the kernel.

Power off and power on and tap vol down when you see the motorola sign
[Xoom Android Development] fsunoles157:
You need to move the kernel zip to sdcard 2. Copy it from sdcard downloads and move to sdcard2
[Xoom Android Development] cat2115:
wrong reply sorry
[Xoom Android Development] el_bori1:
That's where I have it. I'm gonna try it on more time.

Sent from my Super-Xoom
[Xoom Android Development] Archangel:
is it that you cant see it or cant flash it? When you flash it does it say installation aborted or complete?
[Xoom Android Development] el_bori1:
Just try it again and it says (installation aborted) can't flash it.

[Xoom Android Development] fsunoles157:
I'm not very happy with these random reboots. :-/
[Xoom Android Development] Archangel:
Try this, download the kernal onto the xoom via the browser. Use root explorer to move it from downloads to sdcard2.

then use extended controls or quick boot to reboot into recovery and then choose install zip from sd card then pick the tiamit that you downloaded and install it.
[Xoom Android Development] cat2115:
sorry i install the clockworkmod and when i follow the your guide,3. Select "mount USB storage", it said E:cannot mount or write.
[Xoom Android Development] Archangel:
that mount is just to allow you to drop the kernal into the xoom via your computer try to load it another way like from the xoom's web browser or adb push it if your familiar with ADB?
[Xoom Android Development] el_bori1:
Now it worked, thanks. I never had any random reboots running @1504 hopefully this kernel doesn't change that.

[Xoom Android Development] fsunoles157:
Also try flashing the cwm again. In rom manager hit the top button first choose xoom and OK. Then hit the second button and continue from there. Install zip from SD card
[Xoom Android Development] fsunoles157:
Have you tried going in recovery from rom manager try that
[Xoom Android Development] Archangel:
thats great! Let me know!
[Xoom Android Development] fsunoles157:
Can you hook ur sdcard up to your comp and put something on it. Or maybe your phone. Then put it back in your xoom. Reboot and check mnt/sdcard/sdcard2
[Xoom Android Development] fsunoles157:
Brw try turning USB debugging off to see
[Xoom Android Development] Archangel:
is it a known good sd card? properly formatted?
[Xoom Android Development] kntdookoo:
yes I can. I use my droid Inc to see the SD and put stuff on it.

I see mnt/sdcard/sdcard2
[Xoom Android Development] fsunoles157:
OK well put something on it from your phone and check on your xoom with it
[Xoom Android Development] fsunoles157:
I had read over in xoomforums if you want to mount USB storage you should have debugging off.... idk that could be a lie
[Xoom Android Development] twinkyz1979:
Please make a version for people not wanting to use the CW recovery

Can i get a version for doing it the old fashioned way without using the recovery please?
[Xoom Android Development] Archangel:
I dont know about that I didnt install the kernal the way the OP suggested I loaded it on to my clockworkmod folder and then went right into it in recovery when i chose to install from zip
[Xoom Android Development] Archangel:
the files can be placed into the one click method and you can try that?
[Xoom Android Development] Archangel:
have you tried to just use the one click method and redo the unlock, root and update kernal? This should just start you over fresh with a new su file and kernal then try to start the flash of the new kernal over again?
[Xoom Android Development] fsunoles157:
Give me 10 mins ill post one for the new version

sent from my evo :-)
[Xoom Android Development] twinkyz1979:
call me stupid or just old fashioned i would rather enter the commands in by hand. The only thing stopping is the difference in the boot.img size from the old version to this version. Is it from removing the debugging or is there something else different with the sizes of the boot.img?

This is also assuming (since i am not to smart on android) that the meta stuff is just telling where and how to put the other different files when it installs through the CW recovery.

I am trying to say if i extract the zip and adb push the files where they go after flashing the boot.img everything will work like normal or i would think so but i am just asking don't want to brick my device just yet :)
[Xoom Android Development] fsunoles157:
Yea I did it the same way you did. It was like butter haha

sent from my evo :-)
[Xoom Android Development] ryan562:
Again awesome work bigrushdog! I flashed this successfully via clockwork recovery. Here's what worked for me:

1. Downloaded zip file 2. Moved it to sdcard2 via root explorer app. 3. Used rom manager to boot in to cm recovery 4. Used the "install .zip from sdcard" option. 5. Scrolled down to the kernel zip then flashed and rebooted.

FWIW the sdcard I'm using is a 32gb SanDisk from Amazon.com. i used it outside the box without formatting.
[Xoom Android Development] fsunoles157:
Lol oh I thought you wanted one click why do you wanna use adb. Having cwr is a reason to skip adb

sent from my evo :-)
[Xoom Android Development] twinkyz1979:
Ok that would be great thank you.
[Xoom Android Development] twinkyz1979:
I would prefer adb style is what i am saying if you could do that or can i just extract and push? lol
[Xoom Android Development] fsunoles157:
Extract and push
[Xoom Android Development] Archangel:
yeah if you are decent with adb then pushing it is optimal if not than the one click is good just as long as the program is good. I along with fsunoles157 replaced the older kernal with the newer kernal and flashed 1.3.1 using it and it worked perfectly so 1.3.2 should work the same way it does all of the pushing for you
[Xoom Android Development] twinkyz1979:
How do the quadrant scores for 1.3.2 compare to 1.3.1?

by the way the extract and adb worked fine! :)
[Xoom Android Development] fsunoles157:
Same quadrant but lower mflops.
[Xoom Android Development] twinkyz1979:


Good to know! Thank you
[Xoom Android Development] fsunoles157:
When you take pics where do they save to? Also does usb storage work for you? What happens when you mount it in recovey....
[Xoom Android Development] Archangel:
Dont quote me but i think they still save to sdcard2 for no, I didnt try USB storage yet, and are you asking about mount the sd card in recovery?
[Xoom Android Development] fsunoles157:
Yes. Also what is that post outside of here that says WIP ....

sent from my evo :-)
[Xoom Android Development] Archangel:
do you mean work in progress? Where is that?
[Xoom Android Development] fsunoles157:
Oh lol. wip. Work in progress duhhh. But it say xoom update script??
[Xoom Android Development] fsunoles157:
Save to sdcard2? That's my external. Did you mean they save to sdcard internal? Damn why can't we just rename them internal external
[Xoom Android Development] tangiers:
I agree. The OP refers to making a sdcard2 directory in "sdcard" but I am not sure if that is a directory on the internal sdcard or the external sdcard (and I have seen that BRD refers to both in the Clockwork Recovery thread and suggests that the external SD card will soon be treated as the internal SD card in the future...!). It would seem to me that unless "internal" is used when referring to "sdcard" one would assume sdcard means the external SD card as this is what most people would understand the term to mean?
[Xoom Android Development] pyrator:
it means under the normal file system root/sdcard create a folder called sdcard2 so it looks like this

/sdcard/sdcard2

/this is internal memory/this is external sdcard
[Xoom Android Development] twinkyz1979:
i do not know how to save things to the external sdcard without saving them first to the internal sdcard and then moving to the external sdcard2 (/sdcard/sdcard2) but i know when you put in an sdcard it shows up and when you take it out the directory sdcard/sdcard2 still shows up but if you check it it's empty.
[Xoom Android Development] mrkrabs:
I have everything flashed...new kernel....cwm....when loaded in hc, I still cannot move anything to my SD card....I created the sdcard2 folder like it said and everything but when I move stuff there its still on the internal.....cwm can see my SD card cause that is where my Android backups are...not sure why sum pple can move files to their SD card through hc and some pple cant
[Xoom Android Development] hm1b:
bigrushdog you Rock!! Thank you so much.
[Xoom Android Development] pyrator:
3100 .... just wait..........
[Xoom Android Development] ChadH42:
Flashing with CWM worked perfectly.
[Xoom Android Development] hkfriends:
why my score only 1880 :(

I follow the step and update the latest kernal v1.32 without O/C :confused:
[Xoom Android Development] bigrushdog:
:)

Trust me. I know it is confusing. "Sdcard" is internel and "sdcard2" is external. Please understand this is a very dynamic and fluid development environment. Everyday we progress toward total SD perfection. Inside recovery, "Sdcard" external. There are reasons for this, I assure you. With the latest kernel, 1.3.2, all you have to do is create "sdcard2" inside "Sdcard" and flash the kernel. Bad news is this will likely be changing again soon. The good news is we will have Mass Storage in Android.
[Xoom Android Development] bigrushdog:
:D :D :D

Don't give it away now, sir. :rolleyes:
[Xoom Android Development] Crimton:
mass storage while in the OS? Woohoo! Thank-you sir you are awesome.

Reboots

Thanks BRD but I'm still getting reboots out the ass everytime I go to do something on the xoom such as install a app or go to the browser to search I get a reboot! I tries different overclock speeds and the same thing is happening I'm running a 3G / Wifi device I want to run this and I'm doing everything to spec. I don't want to go back to rooted stock but this isnt working out. Can I please get some suggestions or help.. Going back to stock to try something else any help would be appreciated
[Xoom Android Development] Archangel:
Something you did def did not agree with the kernal, a kernal install should not have caused that, i would try to re-flash. Did you do it originally through adb?
[Xoom Android Development] fabian29906:
Where to start?

OK I guess I'm ready to take the plunge since we now have SD support. I have NOT rooted or unlocked yet so I'll ask for a few opinions. Should I unlock, root, push recovery then flash? Or one click method that will have an earlier version then move on from there?
[Xoom Android Development] fsunoles157:
What does that exactly mean
[Xoom Android Development] Kas206:
Give away what? :-D
[Xoom Android Development] Crimton:
For Linux users it means we can mount storage via usb and copy/paste files without some complicated work around or having to boot into Windows.
[Xoom Android Development] JeffR714:
yes everything thru adb I just re-rooted with one click which uses the 1.30 did the HR166 with the JRummy updater which I haven't used since it came out I was flashing that HR166 root prepped file to get to 3.01 so that may be where the problem was so far no reboots and I did a couple things with the xoom I'll adb the new kernel see what happens. Thanks for telling me that there was something def wrong I needed to know that
[Xoom Android Development] fsunoles157:
If you wanna download the one click download the lastest tiamat files and swap them out with the ones in the tomato folder if you have wifi do it for both tomato and wifiroot folder. Don't forget to make your sdcard2 folder in SDcard! After that it should say you have 1.3.2! Don't forget the motor driver so your comp recognizes it!

sent from my evo :-)
[Xoom Android Development] Archangel:
If your not familar with ADB pushing then use the one click just make sure that the files are placed correctly or it can really screw your xoom up. I used the one click like three times to unlock, root, and update my kernals. If you do the one click it does all the pushing for you so thats nice. There are several posts in the one click thread that have the new kernals (1.3.0 on up). It really doesnt matter whether you go from the base kernal on up or just go straight to the 1.3.2 as long as you prep your SD card with the file SDcard2 inside of it.
[Xoom Android Development] Archangel:
dont know if many know this but, make sure when you do a nandroid back up you move your music and movies to your external SD card. If not you will have a massive data.img and the backup took like an hour.
[Xoom Android Development] PensFan66:
Just wanted to say thanks to the Devs! I read more than I post, but with the new SD flash support just had to thank you guys for the hard work.

I used the 1.3.2 and it flashed great from Recovery great!

[Xoom Android Development] jawonder:
Are you saying that they should be moved to external before backup ?.
[Xoom Android Development] Archangel:
You can leave them however your back up will take a long time depending on how much storage space you are using. I have next to nothing and backing up data.img took over 20 mins.
[Xoom Android Development] Archangel:
did you reset your setcpu to performance?

Thanks.

Evo Better Than The Best...
[Xoom Android Development] Archangel:
If your already rooted first download the kernal and either adb push it or use the one click method to get the kernal up and running. After this is done and you have the 1.3.2 kernal then you can use rom manager to download clockwork recovery or adb push the recovery.img hope this help!
[Xoom Android Development] fsunoles157:
look in the other forum it says xoom one click i have detailed steps if you want that
[Xoom Android Development] fsunoles157:
i think he has stoick kernel though :-/ i dont think you can push in recovery with stock kernel it doesnt support sdcard?
[Xoom Android Development] Archangel:
isnt that why you create the sdcard2 folder before you do the push? And you would not be pushing in recovery thats where you go to install the kernal. I updated the directions
[Xoom Android Development] fsunoles157:
he can try it but i was told it wont work right because sdcard isnt already working so he cant use cwr
[Xoom Android Development] Archangel:
I see what your saying,,,updated directions .....

If your already rooted first create a folder labeled sdcard2 inside sdcard then download the kernal and either adb push it or use the one click method to get the kernal up and running. After this is done and you have the 1.3.2 kernal then you can use rom manager to download clockwork recovery or adb push the recovery.img hope this help!
[Xoom Android Development] tjubb:
should I be seeing the sd card under Settings-->Storage? I'm not seeing it. Is there a command to see if it's mounted properly?

if you go to settings then about tablet you should see the 1.3.2 kernal line down near the bottom right if it is installed right

I'm forced to go back to rooted stock! the reboots have slowed but there still there you go to download some apps and all goes well and then a reboot! It happens no matter what speed and if you set any other gov then interactive I get reboot after reboot I will try one final time and then I'll just wait till the source is released I want to use this but can't I've rooted plenty of devices but this has been frustrating for me
[Xoom Android Development] tjubb:
Gotcha. I moved my movies, pictures and audio folders from the internal memory to /data/media/sdcard2. Is that the right mount point? However, now the gallery is complaining about not being able to find the files. Is there a refresh gallery option?
[Xoom Android Development] sfld:
faster then 3100? wtfff lol

whennnnn
[Xoom Android Development] tjubb:
I do see that kernel however when I do a mount command on terminal, I don't see the sd card as mounted.
[Xoom Android Development] Archangel:
I think that is one of the problems they are still working out. I move my files when i need to make nandroid back ups thats it otherwise i leave them installed,,,otherwise your back ups will take forever
[Xoom Android Development] Archangel:
Sorry i answered the wrong question LOL but i mounted the SD card in clockwork recovery under storage and mounts the only thing diff that i noticed between this clockwork and other earlier android devices is that after you do a nandroid i have to move that back up to sdcard2 backup in clock work otherwise rom manager does not see the back up?
[Xoom Android Development] fsunoles157:
in the market there should be look into the xoom settings where the music is or whatever program your using you might have to select where your media is coming from
[Xoom Android Development] tjubb:
ok, last question for the day. Is there a way to change the default download location to the sd card and for all the apps to use the sd card or do we need to wait for the devs on this one?
[Xoom Android Development] fsunoles157:
gotta wait but you can default your downloads to sdcard2 if you use any other browser besides the default one and also any programs that dowload or save look in settings see if you can change the save spot sdcard/sdcard2/tofilename
