Looking for a little advice, I want to root my UK Xoom Wifi but the threads I've read seem to be a bit ambiguous about whether the methods work or if it will root Android 3.1, can anyone help?
Got it done

Im looking for a guide and/or files for rooting a US wifi xoom that is already on 3.2 stock & locked.
Anyone know where to find this?
Hello,
Just got my hands on a Wifi Xoom mz604. I have rooted my HTC desire and am running a modified version of LeeDroid but this Xoom seems a bit more complicated. I can't find anything that specifically says it's for the AU Wifi version.
Can anyone help me?
Sorry, it's on 3.1.

Well, WiFi only Xooms have the exact same hardware, no matter their country of origin. I know there are threads (in back pages by now) for rooting the AU Xoom, but they may have referred to the 3G models. Did you check the Rooting Heaven thread in the General section?
hi, thanks for the reply. Ended up figuring it all out, now running the us 3.2 rom and have clock work recovery.
Hi,
Got my xoom about 2 days ago and looking to put the team eos nightly ics rom on it,
However, I dont know what model my xoom is, The box does not really help. And the model number in settings just shows "xoom"
The xoom was bought brand new from America (Im in Australia) and it is the WIFI only version
Also i was wondering the easiest way to root the device?
Thanks

The Wifi only is MZ604 or sometimes referred to as Wingray. Here is a link to rooting:

And here is a link to unlocking and flashing:

Thanks for that, Ive just got to sort out how to set up adb, No idea on it..
the way it seems, The Xoom is much harder to root & install custom roms on than the Optimus 3d, SGS and the SGS2
Ok so im following this guide,
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1249798
and have installed drivers and adb and all that stuff,
When i double click on fastboot, It pops up for about a second then goes away?
Not exactly sure what to do
Edit: Nevermind got it
I'd like to know if it's possible to root an ICS-upgraded brand new Transformer. I've read a few things about anything above B70 might not be rootable. Mine is C10KAS184908. Is it rootable still, and where would a guide for that be? I do apologize if the answer is obvious.
Look for Vipermod on these forums, and use Option 1
I rooted my C10 yesterday with vipermod, worked perfectly fine with option1.
Hey there im brand new to xda forums so sorry if im in the wrong place. But I was wondering if any one has any guides or any helpful hints for rooting a wifi canadian xoom that is running ics 4.0.3.

In a word, don't try. Have a look at this thread which will help you turn your Canadian Wifi Xoom into the US based Google Experience Device (GED) which will be MUCH easier to work with. I did it months ago, and I haven't looked back.
