That's not a custom ROM, that's the debug build from Google. You got it as a mistake. Your phone got loaded with the wrong software by Google/Samsung at the factory.
If you want to go the path of unlocking and flashing someone's nandroid backup of a "regular" phone, go to this thread.
Your best thing to do is to contact this guy from Google ([email protected]) in this thread, or take the phone back and exchange for a clean one.

Tiamat Rom 2.0 Manta Ray is great. For me, stock rom is boring. With Tiamat you get all the functions stock 3.2 still doesn't have.
If so could u help me to have Tiamat rom on mine? I think i have the stock rom rooted now.. .not sure tho cuz i dont know much about this stuff.. step by step guidance will be very helpful, thanks alot
You do need to know whether you are rooted and what rom you are currently running. This information will determine what method you use to flash the Tiamat rom.Have you tested to see if you have root? That will make things easier.
thanks okantomi for your advice, the guy who sold this xoom to me told me it's rooted. i even downloaded a few apk apps and they work fine. i am sure it's rooted but i don't know what type of rom its running. could you be able to tell what rom it's running by looking at the info? thanks..Here is info on my xoom

[Completed] [Q] how to remove CARBON ROM completely and replace with NEW ROM

Hey everyone,
I'm creating this thread today to try and find some much needed help regarding my rooted HTC One m7 that currently has the custom ROM CARBON installed. I have a couple ways I know how to replace it with a new custom ROM it's just that I do not want to reap the repercussions that might come with doing them the way I know how. I'm not very familiar on how to backup your personal data and apps without knowing forsure that I didn't include some bits and pieces of my current ROM inside of the backup somewhere. As i would assume if that were to happen, it would most defiantly mess everything up when restoring it back onto the new custom ROM. If someone could shed some light for me on how to completely unistall my CARBON ROM while being able to save all personal data as well. Along with instructions on how to go about downloading and correctly installing a new ROM onto my m7 and restoring my personal data back onto the phone. I would greatly appreciate any help that can be provided. I will list my m7's information below. Thank you.
