Anyone know how to update to 3.2 im stock. I just check the bottom but there no find a update anyone now some ways to update?
there are plenty of guides and tutorials in de Development section around. Using those I managed to move my MZ604 (wifi only) european firmware to US stock 3.2 firmware. Just take a look there. It's quite easy. Ando voids your warranty

I just got an open box Xoom that seems to be a Canadian version (or at least all the updates come from a .CA address). The ICS upgrade isn't coming up as an available download. Does anyone know if it is possible to load the US ICS upgrade and if so, where to download the package?
Just a little more information... It came with Android 3.0 and got the updates to 3.2. Now when I check for updates it says there are none available. I know ICS has been released in Canada so if getting that package is a better upgrade option I'll take it. It is a Model MZ604 Wifi only if that helps.

It would be much appreciated to let the forum know what model xoom you have (like Wifi or MZ604 or wingray etc...) The different xoom models have slightly different ways of getting ICS.
Here's what I have to offer as advice. Don't take my word for it, but if you want the stock, non-rooted, official US MZ604 ICS version of android for your Canadian Xoom, you'd probably have to load the U.S. stock honeycomb images onto your xoom, and that will allow you to accept the OTA updates that eventually lead up to the latest version of android ics 4.0.4. This assumes that you have a Wifi Only xoom MZ604. By loading the U.S firmware, the xoom will pick up the ICS update intended for the U.S. Wifi Xoom
If you want to find those images: go to http://developer.motorola.com/products/software/ . You will need to sign up for an account, but the account is free and gives you the real, stock factory images for the xoom.
If you have a xoom that uses 3G/4G service, the only option that comes to mind is too root an apply a custom rom onto your xoom. Wesamothman has good guides in the Xoom General forum for doing that.
When you are at the site, look for the M
@Yosterwp,
I am thinking today to combine a general guide for all xoom types rooting and ICS ROM flash (custom). So that it would be one thread post for all xooms
And thanks for appreciating the guides...
@Newanzer, Yostewp is correct. I won't doubt his judgments / methods...

Sorry I should have included that. It's a WiFi only MZ604. I'll edit the original post with it as well. I'm kind of thinking of keeping it all stock for now instead of trying to rebuild it, so I'd like to get ICS 4.0.3 for Canada if possible.
I have been reading other forums about this issue as well. I've tried the clear framework data fix with no luck. Some are saying I need to set my date back to day of release. I may try that tonight. The OTA method seems flaky. I'm surprised they don't have a manual update download option.
Thanks for the reply.

I have the Canadian Xoom (MZ604) as well. I got tired of waiting and tried this shortly after ICS was released to the US version and it totally upgraded. It was a bit tedious to start at 3.0 again and run all the updates just to get to ICS but everything has been fine.
Is there a guide explaining some major terms?
like:
ROM
SBF
OTA
UNLOCKED BOOTLOADER
ROOT
FLASHED phone/tablet
Its simple but useful..
In my case, i have an XOOM 2, there are forums talking about download an default SBF from different country's to be able to update it
i.e: My SBF is from Brazil, which doesn't have update from HC to ICS yet, so i take an SBF from europe and its done!
BUT!
I have questions about it, like if i can extract my custom "SBF" so i can use as backup later(in case of warranty issues).. Every time a new term is introduced on the discussions and this is driving me crazy(ps: pharse learned watching american movies)
But i dont know exactly what SBF is, i dont know if it is simple ROM, so i would like to see the differences!!!!
There are tutorials saying how to extract the ROM from the device, but how do i know if it will extract the CALLED "SBF" THING....
Just an example!! but i have man other doubts which an guide would help me!(and others i believe)
thanks!

Possibly the best you'll get. If you see something missing, you can make requests.
Hi there guys,
I've got a Xoom in my hands right now, an MZ604 UK WiFi Only edition running Honeycomb 3.0.1
It seems that recenlty, one of the best guides to GEDifying the xoom was taken down (SimonJStuart's guide to GEDifying for n00bs) so I decided to follow the tutorial at XoomForums ---> How to turn non-US xoom into US Xoom. PM me for the link (I have less than 10 posts)I've reached step 4 but I cannot for the life of me seem to find that page on Motorola's site and their customer support ar about as backward as ice cream trousers.
I just need someone to point me to a download link for said firmware on step 4. And another question while i'm here, If I do complete the said tutorial on getting my Xoom to JB, How do I revert the language back to UK from the flashed and updated US Firmware?
Thanks beforehand btw.
The guide is called [How To] UK Wifi To US GED
and has 5 steps to it
I recently picked up a TF300TL off my local craigslist for $200.00. I've searched here as well as Google a lot and have not been able to come up with anything from someone who has installed Jellybean on a US TF300TL. Is there any custom rom that will work? How about root? I've found several threads but they all have warnings about it being untested on the TF300TL.
I'd just like to get Jellybean on here and am looking for some type of guide or walkthrough that could help me minimize the risk of bricking it, especially since it appears that the TF series has some specific steps that are required when updating.
Thanks!

The manual that shows how to flash is there also.
Hello,
I have a Galaxy Note 10.1 (2012 Edition), WiFi only, bought in Canada with N8010XXUCMH2 build, and running stock 4.1.2.
I want to upgrade to KitKat and was waiting for the stock update but it does not appear to be coming (for Canada and N8010XXUCMH2).
My questions is which is the closest stock ROM I can use instead? And will it work out of the box or will I require other modifications? I have searched around the forums for an have found various answers to which ROM I should be using and to be honest I am a little confused.
Lastly, after upgrading to this ROM, can I root and what is recommended as an easy method to do this?
Has anyone tried any other country ROMS?
Did you find any solution DrZEUS? I use the same version and cannot find any solution yet. I want to root my device but cannot find anything for this specific version.
I'll keep looking. If I find a solution I'll (try to remember to) post it here.
If you have the N8010 then its always been rootable .
