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.

Lenovo S 860 is the latest offering from Lenovo and released recently in India. It has a massive battery of 4000 mah and is the best phone for people who want something which has a lot of stamina and this phone certainly lives up to the expectations.
SInce I was unable to find a specific forum for this phone I am posting it in the general section.
This is specifically for people who want more out of their Android phones.
So here you go, to root this phone, it is very simple, use VROOT. It is a one click process and works perfectly, but the super user installed will be in Chinese.
http://www.mgyun.com/en/GetVRoot
Thanks for posting/confirming that Vroot works for the S860 (and for starting this thread)- I'm about to purchase this phone later today. Is there any way to replace the Chinese superuser with an English one?
Edit: Just found this link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1965781
Has anyone bought and is using this phone? Haven't seen much activity online so far even though it's a fairly decent offering. Perhaps if the Mods could move this thread to Android General it might be more helpful?
On a side note, if anyone is using the phone have you received 4.4 update yet?

Yeah...have been using the phone for the last 3 weeks. Performance is very good for day to day taks - calls/browsing/streaming etc . The best part I like about this phone is the mammoth battery and Lenovo still managed this in a rather slim body. It is also lighter than note 2.
Recieved kitkat update yesterday. A few changes to the UI - now it is lag free.
Kitkat update link
Can anybody post the link or how to upgrade Lenovo S860 to Kitkat. Lenovo released the update but since it around 1 GB unable to do so through phone. It gets interrupted due to unstable net connection and sloe speed. Is there anyway I can do this through PC.
VRoot did not work for me after upgrading phone to 4.4.2. It rebooted the phone constantly, asked for permission to restore data from PC to phone, but the root process kept failing. Anyone else face the same issue?
I have used S860 for a month now. Android 4.2.2 works good except for some lag. I would like to upgrade to 4.4 but don't want to loose google play. Any suggestions? Can I install the Lenovo update of 4.4 and then reinstall google play?

This will only work for the Chinese 1 GB model of Lenovo S860 - not the 2 GB ROW (Rest of the World) Model.
From whatever little is available online for this phone I'm guessing it's hard to root if the phone's running kitkat - and it doesn't look like any developer will come up with Root for it. It's just too bad, I miss using AdAway the most!

Flash S860
I have an S860 (1GB) bought from China obviously and when I received it it had no gapps and no caller id in Europe which was annoying.
What I did:
1. Installed 4.2.2 ROW Version (also when I flashed it I put a custom recovery image TWRP 2.7)
2. After I flashed it I installed root and modem for 3G calls from custom recovery.
That's it, feel free to ask me any question!

I bought my S860 on eBay (Honk Kong), it has KitKat 4.4.2 already installed and all Google services on and working. Language only english and chinese. Also it haso no caller id in Europe (little annoying) so set OFF.
Point 2. will be interesting for me, how to root the phone (with build ver. VIBEUI_V1.5_1423_7_ST_S860 and baseband version S860.V102, 2014/04/15) and set caller ID to Europe?
Thanks.

I have this Chinese version too, I got it few weeks ago.
When I got it, it had Android 4.2.* and everything was OK.
Then I got the notification that there is a system update (over 700MB), and I updated it.
After the update I have KitKat 4.4.2, Baseband S860.V102, Build VIBEUI_V1.5_1423_7_ST_S860., there was no Google Play store and stuff, so I had to loose time to make Google services to work.
Now it works, but I have some problems with notifications from the apps. Sometimes I get notifications from Facebook messenger and other apps, but most times I don't get any notifications, except from the mail.
It is really annoying, and I can't find any solution.
I'm no expert for rooting and stuff, I previously used Nexus 4 with stock system, and I bought this phone because of 2 SIM slots and good battery life.
Do you have any suggestions for my problem?
Do you know if it is possible to, maybe, install Cyanogenmod on it, and would that solve the problems?
2gb ram, 16gb rom, 5.3"ips,
I'm seriously considering this phone, the P780 has more development, but is lacking the extra features this model provides.
I'm in Canada and would need the development to reflect ROW needs.
BUT,,,
No development so far
So I'm keeping my fingers crossed and here's to (Prost!) to further development............

I also have 2gb ram 16gb S860 rom. I was looking for a related article about root, but no one ever discusses it. if there was even discussed in the jelly bean root instead kitkat.
My experience using framaroot and vroot not succeed in kitkat (2gb ram 16 rom).
I am also waiting for this type of developer for lenovo, considering this phone is a new entry in Indonesia. I come from Indonesia.

So the Lenovo site lists this phone "Ports - Micro SD up to 32GB", does your phone have a Micro SD Memory slot?
http://shopap.lenovo.com/hk/en/smartphones/s-series/s860/#tab-tech_specs
If not, is there ROW version of this model?
Mine is 2gb ram and 16 gb rom. I have rooted it with vroot. Then instaled twrm using mtk mobileoncle plus supersu. You can download correct version from lenovo.forum.ru

I think one of the specifications listed there, whether or not there is behind casing. because mine is not available microSD slot. there are only a miniUSB slot and audio jack 3.5, as well as slots for dual SIM
to my knowledge, ROW version is 2gb and 1gb CN. please correct if I'm wrong.

Did you root it while you were on jellybean or kitkat? After upgrading to kitkat neither vroot, nor framaroot are working. I tried with three different windows laptops.
Lenovo S860 2GB RAM = ROW
Lenovo S860 1GB RAM = CN/vibeui
I root it on kitkat with no problems using vroot.

I'm in Australia on Telstra network. Apparently I have the Taiwan Brazil version which has matching bands to what I need here. Everything works great except mobile data hotspot and USB tethering. Asus can't help me as apparently the phone is not released here in AU. Data works fine on the phone but won't share. The PC says there's a DNS issue. It connects to the hotspot but says no internet connection. I hope someone here has some ideas. Great device otherwise. Thank you in advance.
I have same problem with my ZS570KL on Telstra Network. Haven't found solution yet. . Never tried it before Nougat update so unsure if it worked then,.
Found a solution which works.

Why haven't you upgraded to Nougat? (It fixed a bluetooth problem I had)?

Hi,
this is a general thread about our stock Android firmware with One UI 4.1 now and it's later updates.
We can exchange our experiences and discuss software changes etc. here.
April 2020: Android Q. finally arrived
Changes: https://doc.samsungmobile.com/SM-T865/DBT/doc.html
March 2021: Android 11 (R) our second major update arrived nearly one year later (Will we get a third once ... ?)
Changes: https://doc.samsungmobile.com/SM-T865/DBT/doc.html
March 2022: Android 12 (S) arrived just on time one year later (it's even possible that we will get a fourth update and hopefully android L as an intermediate step)
Changes: https://doc.samsungmobile.com/SM-T865/DBT/doc.html
September 2022: Android 12L we've got OneUi 4.1.1 (is it the last Android version upgrade ... ?)

It's smooth enough in deed But I'm definitely missing some useful tablet features like volume button rotation depending on tab`s orientation and vibration feedback. One can only hope Samsung will fix this with some update ... .

Volume rotating according to screen orientation should be baked in as default.
Untill then you should be able to enable it with System UI Tuner from playstore. :good::good:

Hey ppl,
I have an interesting issue here. Galaxy Tab S6 4G/LTE (SM-T865) XSA.
Can't locate any stock firmware for this model anywhere. Tried Samfirm and Frija but no luck.
Sites such as sammobile, updato and imei also return nothing. WTH?
Firmware for SM-T860 XSA is easily available but that's only the Wifi model.
Can anybody help with obtaining stock firmware for the XSA (Australia) region.

Hey mate, had the same issue here. I just flashed German firmware, just like I did on S9 before. Works perfectly, and it is always in the list of first countries to receive security patches and other system updates (via OTA)

Thanks for posting..
Flashing German (DBT) firmware is exactly what brought me here.
Doing so has lost Wifi calling (yes the tab is used for calls at times)
This is the reason I'd like to go back to the original XSA firmware (It had working Wifi calling).

Right, I see...
I couldn't find flashable XSA anywhere for download, but if I were you I'd try Kies firmware recovery (rebranded into Smart Switch?), or any other official Samsung firmware recovery method which uses your IMEI/SN to identify your device. That should be able to get you Aussie (XSA) region firmware restored onto the device.
P.s. Try New Zealand (XNZ) firmware, I wouldn't be too surprised if it works for wifi calling in Aus

How to change region
I bought a Galaxy Tab S6 LTE in the Emirates, the region is naturally xsg. I want to change to sek Ukraine. Since both regions belong to the OXM Region multi-regional firmware, I inserted the Ukrainian Vodafon SIM card and made a complete reset via the tablet menu. The region has not changed, XGS remains.
What am I doing wrong?
Yeah!

Hey all,
I have just bought an audi that comes with the android tablets for the kids in the back seat. They are running android 4.4.2 and no OTA updates are available to it. Due to its old OS, im having problems getting things like bluetooth controllers and even the play store to work correctly (intermittent downloads stuck on pending forever / stalling).
I have seen other tablets of the same variety running android 7 but cannot find the software anywhere on the internet to update to the custom build for these head units.
Can anyone help me figure out how to make this tablet a little more usable in 2023?
Thanks
Request the matching Android 7+ from OEM.
I have emailed the maker of the device, JET OPTO via their website but they havn't responded.
Does anyone know if rooting and custom rom would work on this - retaining its function with hdmi in etc?
I was thinking, another way around it is to use a ?firestick and miracast a phone?
Android 4.4.2 easily get rooted via so-called one-click-tools, i.e.

Hi
Same here. I cant find any info about update. There are some info that ppl have android 7 but no info how to do it. On audiworld someone did it by audi service. Ive made couple phones to service and no1 could tell me how tu update. Ive read somewher that rooting RSE III is very risky, it can freeze, then y can do nothing. In service the told me that they can change my old RSE to newer (silver one) cost is big. I dony want to risk that in couple years problem with update will be thisome. I think best way is to buy normal tablets andro or ios.
I can confirm taht you can update to oem audi android 7, already did it.
Hi, do you have the audi oem look files to update it?
I'm looking for the Android 7 update files for an RSEIII currently running on 4.4.2 as well.
Any news on this? I'm also looking for the update.
