This seems to be the best rooting guide available. This is the guide I used. It even has a video to show you how to root.

You can also use Cyanogenmod Wiki:

Just don't flash Cyanogenmod Flash whichever you want

No impact on my data and apps (bootloader still locked).
I'm running stock ICS on i9023.
Credits go to saurik who found the exploit (https://github.com/saurik/mempodroid)
There is guide how to do it even without unlocking BL

[GUIDE] Root Nexus-S 4.0.3 stock firmware without BL unlock

Hi Guys
I've got a 604 UK Xoom Wifi with Honeycomb 3.2 running. I've not rooted it or flashed it.
I'm looking for the easiest way to make it a GED that will receive OTA updates to ICS and then Jellybean when it comes out. I've looked through numerous threads and am really confused!
Any recommendations are much appreciated!
Thanks in advance!
Im sure someone will come by and point to a guide on XDA but in the interim I did this on my UK Wifi only Xoom to get to GED (and thus ICS)
http://www.xoomforums.com/forum/motorola-xoom-hacking-guides/6591-how-uk-wifi-us-ged.html
Took all of 30 mins max to complete.
I've thanked you, thanks.
Did you get ICS automatically, or did you need to check for the updates?
Also, what version of Windows/Linux are you running?

Yup! It won't let you flash unsigned ROMs.
I didn't try to flash anything yet.
The only thing I have done is rooted the tablet.
Isn't the hardware almost completely the same as the xoom 2 10"?
I can open it up to see, but some tips on how to proceed are always welcome.

Oh god please help me!
-- Have Droid RAZR Maxx HD on Verizon
-- Was rooted on 4.1.1
-- Followed instructions on here to keep root while upgrading to 4.1.2
-- Mistake I seem to have made ---> took the upgrade from the Motorola Utility when connected to PC instead of OTA
-- Now when I go to Voodoo ... there is no option to restore root!
Please god help me ... I really need root... :crying::crying::crying:
Any kind soul have a step by step instructions for me to get root back??
Need to be a little more specific on your device brand. Like if your on the xt926 consumer edition like me then your stuck on 4.1.2 because u can't downgrade ur firmware to go back to ICS and get root.
However dev editions or other variants may be able to obtain root again.

Frock that's what I thought but was holding out a little hope. Yes XT926. This blows ... so that WAS the mistake? Not doing the OTA update and instead the connecting to PC and doing it from the Moto utility?? I assumed it's the same thing so wasn't careful about that.
Thanks.

BTW .. why is rooting Motorola such a pain ... I love this phone for it's battery life but I may go back to Samsung phones ... at least there it's crazy easy to root, change roms, etc.
Rooting Motorola is such a pain because of the locked boot loader IMO. I have root because instead of flashing the new update I used voodo and took it strictly ota with my 4.1.1 rooted device.

So, please, make me understand...
Ok, so, let me see if i understood:
there is no way to root JB...
BUT... developers r trying to, is it right?
so.... or we try a crazy thing getting back to ICS with a really complicated rule to follow or we wait for a good friend here who can give us a root for JB?
Is it right? Cause if i am wrong, if there is a way to root JB, please, let me know.
My phone uses 700 MB of RAM with softwares i use not, i want to put it all off from my phone, but they r from the ROM VIVO Brazil...
Help, please?

that version can be unlocked. use this guide to help you, or the link in the previous post if you prefer that method.
Use towel root to root then motopolocaypse to unlock bootloader, manually push a recovery and then you are set. I did it yesterday

Awesome! Another unlocked XT926 roaming the planet. Take that Verizon! But seriously, there are other people to thank, that make all this stuff possible for us. I just pointed you in the right direction. Enjoy your XT926.
