To upgrade to version 1.3.2 you must flash the kermel??

Implemented in someone say exactly what to do to upgrade to version 1.3.2.

Thank you in advance :rolleyes:
[Xoom Android Development] i_am_the_one:
Flashed 1.3.2 works great here.
[Xoom Android Development] Crimton:
I guess more specifically my question is will we be able to mount this as a usb mass storage device to our computer. I use ubuntu and it would be nice to be able to just plug it in and swap files. thanks for the reply
[Xoom Android Development] kev0153:
just flashed via cwm brilliant
[Xoom Android Development] fsunoles157:
Omg that was the easiest thing ever thanks!

Can anyone say what the difference is from 1.3.1?
[Xoom Android Development] bigrushdog:
Mass storage is enabled in recovery but not in android yet. This is the way to mount in Ubuntu. I use this method myself and it works perfect.

Check our github history easily available in the OP.
[Xoom Android Development] andr0id23:
Just flashed with no problems, but do I need to make an Sdcard2 directory somewhere? I am not seeing my SD anywhere within root explorer. What I am trying to do is move my movies to external storage and make a nandroid without having to backup gigabytes of movies. So, how do I access my SD now?

Also, thanks a ton BigRushDog. For putting together the initial root/kernel tool, updating the kernel, SD support, and continued work to make our Xoom's even better! Got a quadrant score of over 3k :)
[Xoom Android Development] bigrushdog:
Just manually create "sdcard2" on your "sdcard". I wrote instuctions "assuming" folks were coming from 1.3.1 :eek:
[Xoom Android Development] hyken:
Just reporting my experience on new kernel. Flashed from recovery without any problem. Problem is my scores have dropped significantly. Linpack was averaging 58, now around 40. Quadrant was around 2600, now 1950. This is with setcpu running interactive 1504 mhz as before flash. Unit also is noticebly less responsive.

Any ideas?

Thanks for all work to date!

Ken
[Xoom Android Development] Crimton:
thanks, I screwed up that method. I messed up my fstab and didn't back it up. I need to try again but keep hoping for an easy way out :p
[Xoom Android Development] teo91:
Adb command not to go ?? Just put zip in sdcard, and everything is allright ??
[Xoom Android Development] andr0id23:
OK cool, thanks. I remember reading that, but wasn't sure if anything changed. I came from the first kernel version :p

Thanks again.
[Xoom Android Development] danman7:
HELP!!

I've done something horribly wrong and I can't figure it out.:mad:

I have a rooted 3G Xoom with the stock kernel.

I d/l & installed Rom Manager, and used it to install Recovery. I then used Rom Manager to boot to said recovery.

When it came back up, all I have is the red Motorola logo and "Starting RSD mode 3" in the top left.

If I hold power & Vol-up, it just reboots to the same Starting RSD mode 3 screen.

If while booting, I hold Vol-down, I get a screen with Motorola logo only. At this point, I can issue fastboot commands but nothing else.

I've done some searching but nothing has helped yet. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated!!!
[Xoom Android Development] Nvrenough:
Everything is all good. Check out the GREAT instructions on the first page and you are golden. :) :D
[Xoom Android Development] jgrizz:
Flashed via CW. Worked great. Quadrant above 3k. Killed Linpack scores for some reason. Oh well. Thanks to everyone involved. :D
[Xoom Android Development] danman7:
Never mind, I figured out I should/could flash CWM via fastboot. Once I had done that, I was able to get recovery up and move on to flashing the kernel package.

Moment of panic there.
[Xoom Android Development] hyken:
update

These Quadrant scores are on first run subsequent runs give me scores in low 3000's. Linpack still in 40 range down from 58-59 range. Keyboard input is lagging where it wasn't before. Just my observations.

Thanks,

Ken.
[Xoom Android Development] fsunoles157:
I'm sure he will update it soon with all the little kinks out
[Xoom Android Development] jgrizz:
With coolbho3000s kernel I used to get 65 mflops consistently.

[Xoom Android Development] mikebeatrice:
If you're not coming from 1.3.1 (ie, no SD support) can you install clockwork from the rom manager app and flash 1.3.2 from there? Or do you have to first install 1.3.1 via fastboot to get SD card support and then flash 1.3.2 from recovery from the SD card?

I'm not going to be around my PC set up with the SDK and such for another couple of days so I'm just wondering if there's a way for me to flash this easily....

been tempted to let CWM flash the recovery from the app, but wasn't sure if I was going in the wrong order...
[Xoom Android Development] Archangel:
I think you can just install the kernal via clockwork recovery as long as you are rooted and have clockwork as your recovery. Just place a folder labeled sdcard2 inside the sdcard then flash. Let me know if I am wrong anyone. I would be cautious with installing through rom manager just stick with clockwork recovery,
[Xoom Android Development] Nvrenough:
Make sure you have sd support first if your going to go the rom manager way.

Flash 1.3.1 then you can do the clock work deal.
[Xoom Android Development] mikebeatrice:
Thanks for the heads up. I'll hold off until I'm around my PC.
[Xoom Android Development] Archangel:
you can easily install as long as you install with clockwork recovery which i assume you have running if your trying to use rom manager? Just download the kernal and follow the directions in the op making sure you have a folder named sdcard2 inside the sd card you really do not need your computer unless something goes wrong, your choice
[Xoom Android Development] deathwish288:
Installed CWR from rom manager, followed OP directions for 1.3.2, the easiest install YET!!!.. Thanks!!
[Xoom Android Development] Kauffman_c:
Just making sure

So there shouldn't be any issue going from 1.3.0 to 1.3.2, as long as the sdcard2 folder is located properly and you can mount and store to it, correct?
[Xoom Android Development] mrkrabs:
I still cannot see my SD card from within hc....I had to take the SD card out put it in my PC and put the tiamat zip on from there then boot in cwm then install like that,,,cwm sees my SD card but not inside hc..is this normal?? I did create the sdcard2 folder like op said...
[Xoom Android Development] armychris28210:
yeah, me neither. i got oc'd and have sdcard2 on sdcard. i flshed tiamat with recovery and navigated to folder"sdcard2" t get file. i assume its there, but i dont see an increase in storage at all. ???anyone? btw, thanks for allthe work on this!
[Xoom Android Development] Archangel:
yes it should not be a problem at all if you follow the op's guide let me know
[Xoom Android Development] Archangel:
yes that is normal and i would recommend not having the card in when flashing the new kernal. Once you do flash shut down then install the sd card and reboot. If your not coming from 1.3.1 then create that sd card folder inside of the sdcard and place the kernal inside the sdcard according to which way your flashing and boot into clockwork and choose the install zip from sd card option and it should load fine let me know
[Xoom Android Development] bwcorvus:
Recovery only sees the external, so it should be in the main directory, not the sdcard2. In HC it needs to be in sdcard2.
[Xoom Android Development] pat4714:
this is awesome now for new roms

today goes down as major dev for andriod honeycomb gets total root and easy flash with backup too well done all involved cant wait for new roms now
[Xoom Android Development] Archangel:
Roms may still be a little ways off but def a head in the right direction! This is so awesome that the DEV community is doing what Moto Google isnt!
[Xoom Android Development] jawonder:
I set up the SD Card 2 on my SD Card but i don't have a SD Card install and i only have the stock Kenel that the Xoom came with can i still Install Clockwork Recovery and and flash the latest kernel in recovery ? .
[Xoom Android Development] TWiG420:
RAWK! \m/

All went smooth and well, didn't even need to use my lappy.
[Xoom Android Development] B Dizzle:
After installing 1.3.2 on Wifi device I have no bluetooth. :/
[Xoom Android Development] stevefxp:
Quadrant Score Low

After implememting 1.3.2 I am seeing Quadrant scores in the low 2100s. This is without the overclocking mod. The question is whether your scores on the first page are with or without overclocking, and if without why the discrepancy between your scores and mine.

Thanks,

Steve
[Xoom Android Development] pat4714:
xoom xoom xooma xoom xoom!!!!
[Xoom Android Development] Kauffman_c:
Looks like I need to brush up on my adb. It has been a while. Thx camblue.
[Xoom Android Development] xlGmanlx:
I don't have my sd card, any way you could support idiots like me still?
[Xoom Android Development] pat4714:
Manufactures rush unfinished products out the door

And leave it up to xda to develop thier products for them and will not support devs working around the clock to optimize their products they should be kicking it in supporting xda with praise and cash no dout they will definitly be getting more sales after today
[Xoom Android Development] Archangel:
No problem, ADB is simple but can go really bad if you just cut and paste so be careful.
[Xoom Android Development] bwcorvus:
I doing think there is a way to make cwm see the internal storage.

Sent From My Evo
[Xoom Android Development] Archangel:
Yes you can place the kernal on the sd card not the sdcard 2 and boot into clockwork recovery and install the zip from the sd card option then chose the zip (kernal) you want to install should go off without a hitch, let me know
[Xoom Android Development] pat4714:
DO yuo have an sd card
[Xoom Android Development] jawonder:
Thanks much gonna try it now .
[Xoom Android Development] pat4714:
you need to run 1.3.1 update first
[Xoom Android Development] pat4714:
did u unlock your xoom using adb and sdk not to hard then you will get familar with adb pushes
[Xoom Android Development] Archangel:
not necessarily the way i read the op if your not coming from 1.3.1 then just create the sdcard 2 folder within the sdcard folder and you can flash once you place it on the sdcard or obviously adb push it
[Xoom Android Development] pat4714:
here is an easy read link http://www.droid-life.com/2011/02/25/how-to-unlock-the-motorola-xoom-bootloader/
[Xoom Android Development] Archangel:
Or you can use the one click method that does both (unlock the bootloader and root) if your not too familiar with ADB pushes I have replaced the kernal with the 1.3.1 (not the new one yet) one and used it twice to update my root and kernal when the new ones have come out will prob do it for this one too, let me know if you want to try it
[Xoom Android Development] drziddo:
Hi guys.

Trying to flash the latest but when I try to move the downloaded fike to sdcard2 is just not working. Can anybody please help me? Options? Ideas? Clues?

Thanks in advance.
[Xoom Android Development] jase33:
flashed new kernel. dont see any end improvement. Quadrant score still 2133 with set cpu at 1.5/interactive.
[Xoom Android Development] xlGmanlx:
agreed, is there a way that i can push the kernel using fastboot still? I don't mind the manual method and my SD isn't here yet, i guess i could either pull my SD card from my Evo or sit tight right?
[Xoom Android Development] fsunoles157:
Copy paste
[Xoom Android Development] qubz:
I updated to 1.3.2 and internal_storage went missing. So I created a folder sdcard/sdcard2 rebooted and it was populated with what was originally in sdcard. Is this right?
[Xoom Android Development] Archangel:
if your familair with ADB you can push it to /sdcard2
[Xoom Android Development] b0ricua:
Flashed without a hitch. Showing 1.3.2 in "About Tablet" so we're good at this point. Also successful in my first nandroid backup and transferring movies from my internal storage to SD card.

One question though, I notice in Root explorer I am not able to see the amount of storage available/used on my SD card, rather just shows the space on my internal storage (even if I'm in the sdcard2 folder)

Is this normal behavior?
[Xoom Android Development] bwcorvus:
You can break it apart and flash through adb. You could also use your evo card.
[Xoom Android Development] Archangel:
Yes thats the way it is going to be until google releases the codes so the sd card can read like it should.
[Xoom Android Development] Archangel:
you were supposed to create the sdcard2 file before you flashed, but it should not have the same amount of files and folders as your sdcard. I think all you did was make a double of your sdcard for sdcard 2 which is ok.
[Xoom Android Development] Archangel:
I have yet to do this, has anyone seen a noticable change in linpack, quadrant, mflops benchmarks, or a notcialbe speed in anything? I have seen mixed reviews?
[Xoom Android Development] xlGmanlx:
I am rocking that bad boy right now no problems baby!!! Smooth as silk and no reboot. Overclocked to 1504 interactive governor
[Xoom Android Development] hawkye:
What are you getting for a Linpack?
[Xoom Android Development] lasphyxial:
i've been around 57-58 and once i got a 59.1xx a little lower then 1.0 kernal.
[Xoom Android Development] xlGmanlx:
I stopped running those "benchmarks" a long time ago so couldn't tell you
[Xoom Android Development] codeman05:
nice work! been running 1.1.0 all day @ 1.5Ghz w/ heavy use and not a FC yet.
[Xoom Android Development] PaulG1488:
same here 1.1.0 has been running smooth no issues at all im also running at max speed
[Xoom Android Development] xlGmanlx:
I too have scotty running at full power
[Xoom Android Development] destroyerbmx:
Everyone on xda knows I was plagued w/ the reset error the the last kernels, I am installing this and will pin it at 1.5 min/max and see if it resets to give the go ahead for the unlucky ones like me.

Reset on smart bench 2011, I ran quadrant first so I would say w/in the first 5 min. I am always unlucky and get the hardware that cant perform.

Ran it again to see and I had another reset just to confirm the first wasnt a fluke.
[Xoom Android Development] hawkye:
Ok thanks! It sounds like it is improved but still not as good coolbho3000's kernel. I get 65 all day long with not on FCs.
[Xoom Android Development] xlGmanlx:
Which 1 is that
[Xoom Android Development] MrHawaii:
I have been running the kernel from the OG OC and have also been betting the freezing and reboot issues. Do I have to flash back to stock and then flash this kernel or am I ok to flash straight to this kernel? Also, will this wipe my data? Lastly, what governor settings are everyone using?

Thank you.
[Xoom Android Development] bigrushdog:
Rebooting on oc kernels is a problem as old as time itself. Usually its from undervolting at hugger clock speeds. And the problem is random from device to device. I will look at increasing voltage for higher clock speeds. I almost always use interactive. And you do not have to flash back to stock and there is no need for data wiping.
[Xoom Android Development] MrHawaii:
Much oblige!

So what would be the MIN/MAX settings that would be best to use? And do I check the "Set on Boot" box?

I apologize for being such a n00b.
[Xoom Android Development] xlGmanlx:
Don't check that until you stopped getting reboot or lock ups just in case. My device can handle 216 min 1504 like a champ
[Xoom Android Development] 760hacker:
Has anyone been able to get wifi tethering working with this kernel on their Xoom and the latest CM7 build on their D-Inc? I have tried the native CM7 app and the Wifi-thether app in addition to trying the Bluetooth pan options. None will connect or even show up when the Xoom scans for active Wifi networks.
[Xoom Android Development] MrHawaii:
Dang, I guess I am in the same boat as destroyerbmx. I learned to not check the box the hard way. I flashed last night and it was set to 216/1400 Interactive and was working great. I changed it to 216/1504 Performance with the box checked, and it rebooted. From there it was in the constant reboot loop. I guess my Xoom can't handle 1504 :(. I hard reset and flashed again just in case. Set to 216/1400 Interactive, left the box unchecked. I would still get the random reboots after about 15 mins of use. Thanks for the info guys! Keep up the great work!
[Xoom Android Development] kjdocs:
Same here, random reboots after any OC kernel. Stock apps other then quadrant and setcpu.
[Xoom Android Development] destroyerbmx:
My other problem was that I would setcpu the max to 1000 and then the next thing I knew it was running at 1504, I just flashed back to stock kernel and wifi driver.
[Xoom Android Development] kcrudup:
+1 on my Xoom @1504 with V 1.1.0 . No lockups or anything, and the 1.5 GHz top-end doesn't seem to affect battery life at all.

Anyone have experience with SetCPU profiles? I've made up three:

- Screen off: 216/312

- Batt < 35%: 216/768

- Charging: 608/1504

and wanted to know what you guys like.
[Xoom Android Development] Blades:
So which defconfig do we go with for a git compile? I'd like to remove ipv6 (assuming honeycomb doesn't have a ****fit) and put cifs in its place.

edit: guessing stingray_defconfig.. but it doesn't really look like what you'd call 'official'. I like that all of the media tuner crap is commented out.. :)
[Xoom Android Development] fsunoles157:
Aren't they in the process of trying to make it where when we take pictures downloads etc. It will go to our sdcard2. But I thin they are going to make our external card sdcard. And internal storage sdcard2. I think that's what I saw. ???
[Xoom Android Development] fsunoles157:
I'm not sure what this new one does but your not going to notice a difference in anything except your mflops. But again you wouldn't know a difference if you didn't have linpack
[Xoom Android Development] Archangel:
Ok cool becuase I have seen some say that it actually reduced some of their benchmarks? Not really a concern to me but I was just wondering the general consensus, thank you!
[Xoom Android Development] el_bori1:
I'm having trouble flashing the new kernel in the recovery. I always get installation aborted. Any other way to flash this kernel?
[Xoom Android Development] moosamm:
Same here, any ideas why??
[Xoom Android Development] Kas206:
My Linpack score has gone down from 57-58 to 44-45
[Xoom Android Development] Archangel:
ok, are you coming from 1.3.1? Did you make a sdcard2 file inside sd card ? Did you place the kernal on the correct sdcard file, if not clockwork will not be able to read it.

How did you try to install?
[Xoom Android Development] gissentml:
I have seen 0 improvement on my quadrant score. 2469 is about average. However I do have sd card access now :)
[Xoom Android Development] Archangel:
Thats weird becuase the cybertronicz original kernal was supposedly really fast but there was no time to test it becuase it was pulled so it was merged with this version, should at least have the same quadrant scores of over 3000?
[Xoom Android Development] Archangel:
Cool and that might be some of the trade off? Sounds good to me!
[Xoom Android Development] PaulG1488:
if your getting low quadrant scores change your governor to performance then run the test and you should see improvements
[Xoom Android Development] 1900mcm:
great work bigrushdog. 2956 quadrant (after playing with setcpu) same test before the flash was 2458. now when i run the xoom in battery saving profiles i think im getting the performance i was getting when pushing the thing.

great work.

i downloaded onto the xoom via the browser. used andexplorer to moved it from downloads to sdcard2.

then i used my extended controls to give me a reboot into recovery.

never left my chair.

great work!
[Xoom Android Development] Archangel:
just installed and quadrant scores were 3012 before the kernal and now after install they are around 3198 so nice increase there!

Linpack/Mflops were around 58-59 before install

after install they are around 43
[Xoom Android Development] ericdabbs:
Question for those that have installed the new 1.3.2 kernel....does the xoom feel more zippy and snappier with this kernel? How are the quadrant and linpack scores?

Supposely people who have tried out cybertronix's changes in his 1.3.1 version of kernel have claimed it was more zippy and faster than the tiamat kernel since cybertronix removed all the debugging bloat code. I haven't had a chance to install the new kernel since I am still at work. Just wanted to see the initial reactions
[Xoom Android Development] Archangel:
I hope it is not just the "placebo affect" but i think it is def snappier and quick to respond. I was watching the frame rates in quadrant and this new kernal is making the xoom sreamin! Quadrant raised but linpack lowered but i do not hold too much in those, i just use them as a basic benchmark. The net seems to load faster and other apps seem to run just alittle but smoother! DEF improvement!
[Xoom Android Development] Archangel:
OH by the way did i say that it is SOOOO nice being able to load and install from clockwork recovery! Thanks to the devs and up yours Moto and Google!
[Xoom Android Development] fsunoles157:
you have that kernel btw? I think I'm gonna stay with that til a new one comes. Zip it if you can
[Xoom Android Development] jawonder:
I flash Clockwork Recovery using ADB but when i reboot into recovery I get a green android with a triangle and an exclamation sign i don't have a SD Card in could this be the cause .Ok i got it ii flashed the latest recovery in Rom Manager then boot in recovery and it's all good . Must get a SD Card tomorrow . Thanks OP .
[Xoom Android Development] Archangel:
yes you def need one
[Xoom Android Development] PaulG1488:
Yea I was one of the few to try it out it was real smooth conpared to tiamats older kernels that's because because brd hasnr been focused on performance he's just trying to enable functions first
[Xoom Android Development] wnrussell:
Titanium Backup

Set Backup folder name to sdcard2/TitaniumBackup. Works fine, can see the backup files on external reader, Xoom, not on PC.
[Xoom Android Development] b0ricua:
Are you able to restore an app successfully?
[Xoom Android Development] fsunoles157:
Do you do this for titanium backup. Will it set your external sdcard to sdcard2?
[Xoom Android Development] jlaw904:
Went from 1.3.1 to 1.3.2 and now quadrant is a little better (3100-3200) but my linpack scores decreased a lot like some others have stated.
[Xoom Android Development] Archangel:
What does this do as the source code has not been released yet to have titanium backup read the sd card the way it should? Just curious
[Xoom Android Development] jawonder:
Sorry to be asking this Question but how do i prepare the SD Card to used in my Xoom , how do i format it ? .
[Xoom Android Development] Archangel:
well there are two ways to format the sd card one of which being fat 32 which i believe is the correct file structure for the card just put in your computer and right click and format most computers auto format to this but make sure when you right click
[Xoom Android Development] Archangel:
just make sure you know when you format the card all data is lost
[Xoom Android Development] fsunoles157:
Do all cards need to be formatted
[Xoom Android Development] Archangel:
oh yes most come formatted fat32 so it usually isnt a problem. If google would get off their butts and release the source code you could do it while installed in the xoom
[Xoom Android Development] jawonder:
Ok thanks , when you say fat 32 you are talking about the capacity of the card , 32GB right .
[Xoom Android Development] jawonder:
Thanks , i'm gonna get a new 32GB card tomorrow so there won't be anything on it . Which is the best brand of card to use ?.
[Xoom Android Development] Archangel:
No, has nothing to do with size of the card it is one of the file structures that you can use according to whatever system you are using the card in,,,android uses fat32, hope that helps
