The answer is that I'm not sure how the international 3.1 differs from the US 3.1. I'm sure we will find out soon. Also are you Wifi only or 3G/Gsm version?

I made the root with international rom and new update 3.1 by following this instruction http://www.xoomforums.com/forum/motorola-xoom-hacking-guides/7353-how-root-international-nonus-motorola-xoom-3g-gsm.html
with replacing the boot file mentioned on this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1160979
Note:
My xoom is originally form US wifi only but I install the international rom because of the arabic language and keyboard

Will this work for an international (Thailand) Xoom with HC3.1 as well? Hoping to root mine soon.

Did you use the boot file that GoNYoR used or did you just follow the instruction in the Xoom forums? I wonder if this will work with a 3G MZ604 on HC3.1. Really interested in rooting my Xoom.

[Q]HK Xoom 3.0.1 ROM

A few weeks ago, I purchased a Xoom with Wi-Fi only in Hong Kong while I was visiting. However, I did not know it was a HK Xoom until I did a OTA update to 3.1 H.6.4-20.
I would like to flash a US 3.2 or above using this thread.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1166106
To my dismay, it states that only 3.0.1 HK Xoom has been tested and working.
It seems that Motorola has not released the stock 3.0.1 version so I have no way of flashing it to my Xoom.
My question is, is there anyway for me to get a 3.0.1 HK ROM in order to flash a US 3.2 or above? Also, can I try the guide I mentioned above without flashing back to a 3.0.1?
Thanks

You are looking to unlock your bootloader and root so you can flash a stock or custom rom with the HC three point two update, yes?
There is a new universal root method that works on any Xoom, any model, any country.
If you root with this method you could flash the Tiamat Hammerhead Rom which will provide you with the three point two update. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1209341

[Q] Why I'm not getting the update?

Hey,
in November 2011 I bought my XOOM on Amazon.de .
The update to Version 3.2 worked fine und was quickly aviable.
But now I'm waiting on the 4.0 Update. I'm from Germany and everytime I hit the button search for updates, he says my tablet is up-to date.
All my friends can download the new firmware since 28.06.2012, I'm not able to do this.
My Build-Number is:
H.6.6-23
Firmware-Version:
GAS_EMEA_UCAHUBLWFRTCOREEU_PO14
Is there a false firmware on my tablet or something else?
Could any German user, which proceed the update successful, which Version he has. I'm pretty unsure about this.
I hope my english is understandable

Your written English is good.
I am not exactly sure if your rom has gotten the update yet, and it doesn't really answer your question..but you can flash stock US rom to get OTA, or flash a custom rom.

hi
i'm from germany and got the update on 28.06. (xoom wifi)
Build-Number: I.7.1-42
Firmware-Version: GAS_EMEA_USAHUBLWFRTDACH_P012
GAS_EMEA_USAHUBLWFRTDACH_A014
GAS_EMEA_USAHUBLWFRTDACH_M006
GAS_EMEA_UCAHUBLWFRTCOREEU_PO14

i don't know, but it seems like your region code is different (COREEU) to german (DACH).

I expected that. I think it's the UK-Firmware, which is installed. I will put the DACH-Firmware on. Thanks!

[Q] Help on updating Xoom (Just bought now)

Hello. I just bought my motorla xoom. Its a pretty old tablet but i still prefer this than those galaxy tabs.
When i try to update, it says it has the latest version but then in the system it is still 3.2. How do you update this tablet? Is it not allowed yet?
Information on my tablet is:
Model Number:
MZ604
Android Version:
3.2
Firmware configuration version:
GAS_ASIA_HUBBLEWIFIHKTWNGEN_P007
Kernel version:
2.6.36.3-00042-g3c1a41e
[email protected] #1
Build Number
H.6.6-27
I hope someone can help me.. im just new at this..

I just bought mine too. It arrived today actually. It came with version 3.1, and, as soon as I went to software updates under Settings, it updated to version 4.0.4
I believe it depends on which country you are.
Unless you want to GEDify your Xoom (as I will do very very soon), then you will receive always the newest updates directly from Google.
BTW, I'm from Brazil.

It is rolled out to everyone in every country, bot NOT at the same time. One day you will get ICS and then JB...
Gedify comes from GED which stands for “Google Experience Device”. A “Google Experience Device” receives its updates directly from Google, without any customization or modification from the device manufacturer.
This is only possible if you flash the US version of Xoom's rom.
MZ604 here in Brazil, there in Philippines and in the US, is MZ604, so there's no problem doing that.
I'm doing it tomorrow!
BTW, if I helped you, hit the Thanks button!

It's done! And Jelly Bean is freaking amazing!

Hey man, i sent my xoom back since i had some problems with my macro shots.. they dont seem to focus well. and when i try it with flash, i only get white pictures. is that normal?
Can you also send me links on how to root-flash-GEDify xoom? if possible though without unlocking bootloader... thanks man...

Unfortunately I won't be able to help you with this... I rarely take photos... even with my Sony smartphone that has an awesome camera.
But I can take some photos to test and see if this is normal. Then I post here my views.

Rooting your xoom won't be possible without unlocking the bootloader. Unless you search for methods using exploits. But those methods didn't work for me but it might be worth a try. So unlocking the bootloader is the best way to root. It's save, pretty easy and you also have the ability to install a custom Rom later on to get jelly bean (I am currently running the cm10 nightlies)

Can you share your Firmware Version, Kernel Version and Build Number as well? After updating to 4.0.4, did your Xoom still have the "Quickoffice HD" app? What I have read from the forums is that GEDifying your Xoom would loose this app since the US-based Xoom does not have Quickoffice HD buddled with the device.

Thx

Hello, I'm from Costa Rica and has the same problem when I try to do the update from the tablet, I was reading about some rooms as you said, but I found another article somewhere on the net.... What you need to do is download the kies synch program from the samsung web page.... Install it on your pc and download any update, also download the drivers, then connect your tablet and the system recognize the model etc. At this point the kies tell you that there is a new update for the tablet and you're set.

Hi, you have two ways for it:
1. See new original update on samsung-update com.
Download from site and install on your 5110
2. Download from samsung update new os version for italian or australian, install this os on you divice and check you native language (german, russian, chinese, etc ) and use .
From first way - you not loosing warranty.
From second way - you loosing warranty, but you always can downgrade you os to you original version 4.0.3
