You need to flash either the Tiamat or LaunchPad kernel.
Find their threads in the Xoom Dev forum and follow the very simple instructions.

I found this
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=978013&highlight=TIAMAT
But it says must have android version 3.1 only. I have 3.0.1
Also does the taimat kernel have to be flashed using an sd card and does the recovery tool have to be flashed or can this be left out?
I found this http://www.android.net/forum/downloads.php?do=file&id=43 , will this work with uk xooms or is their a specific tiamat for US/UK versions
Thanks for your help

Ok so I need taimat version 1.4.1 as this is compatable with android 3.0.1.
Will the taimat 1.4.1 be ok with the 3g uk version?
So i need to install CWM by using adb to flash it to xoom -

I can then get a microsd and put the taimat 1.4.1 kernel on there, and install it that way.
Is this right?
Thanks

I used the Euro 3g thread to bring mine up to 3.1, then flashed the new kernal, then pushed back over the files from step 4 of the Euro thread.
3g works but I dont have an SDCard...:/

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
Android version

[Q] Tiamat 2.1.0 on non-us

First silly question about this rom.
Can I load this onto a non-us xoom, or do I need to wait for lowtraxx to mod it?
TIA.

Look in the Development section and you will see a thread for installing Tiamat 2.0 Manta Ray rom on non-US Xooms.
Cheers, done that already. Can 2.1.0 be I stalled over the top?
I use a German T-mobile Zoom.
The Update works fine for me.
I have yust Installed 2.0, later I updated to 2.01 and now
My Zoom is running with Tiamat 2.1.
For now without Problems.
Before you upgrade dont forget the backup, so you can came back if you dont like it.

the full update.zip is also avaiable
could it be 3.2 version

[Q] Motorola Xoom MZ601 help

Hi there i have been coming here for a while reading at everyones posts and help regarding rooting xoom's... so with all the great feedback the members have given to the users who designed a very easy HOW TO guide on how to root and flash your xoom... I FINALLY DID IT!!!!!! was very easy, i currently have a xoom MZ601 which i rooted with a breeze the put clockwork 3.2.0.0 & flashed to ICS...
Was just curious to know can anyone direct me to a place where i can find alot of themes and customizations for it as i really want to make it look awesome.
Also just another quick question, when i flashed my xoom i originally installed clockwork 4.0.4 how i had to get v3.2.0.0 because 4.0.4 would not pick up the micro SD card to flash to ICS, Is there a version of clockwork i need to have specifically for the xoom. it is a US version and the ICS versio n i got my hand on was Team EOS 3G everest 4.0.4, is that the right ICS i sould have for my xoom mz601, all the help i can get would be most appreciated as i very new to all this. cheers in advanced.

[Q] Need Rom that can Overclock.

Okay guys hear me out, sorry if this is in the wrong section of the forums, I'm currently rooted on the stock build I believe, my specs are as follows: Build Number: JROO3C.WW_epad-10.4.2.13-20120907. Android Version: 4.1.1. I rooted to remove bloatware, and whatnot, but now I want to overclock, and it can't be done with the kernal I have I guess, Stock rom doesn't support it, So I'm on a quest to find a working rom for my build that has been tested and working properly, I have the TWRP recovery I think it's called. And if you haven't guessed my device is Asus TF300T. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I'll be around waiting for a response, so if you need any other question answered or need more info I'll be around, Thanks for all the help.

SO your TF300T is unlocked ?
Apparently, you have the TWRP recovery.
And you want a rom that can overclock ?
So you have several roms, but the best you can do, it's to click to my sig > index for the TF300t, and you will find all roms based on stock and others based on Cyanogen.
The best thing that you can do is to read a little, choose 2 or 3 roms that you find interesting, and try one after one (one week per rom) and you will choose the best rom for you. It will be your choice.

Yes it's unlocked,and thanks, going to try the Hydro rom I suppose. Are the Cyanogen roms compatible with what I'm running? TWRP and Stock JB?

Hydro ROM does not have CPU OC, I think jb blue and [email protected] has overclock. Latest CM 10 is compatible with jellybean boot loader and latest TWRP.
