Hi everyone.
I just upgraded my xoom to rooted 3.1 using the guide in this forum.
After the upgrade my home network does not get picked up. I cant even see it in wifiscanner.
My phone connects to it just fine, and the network at work is detected by the xoom no problem..
Any ideas?
I already tried to flash the overclock kernel to see if it was a kernel issue... still the same problem. :/
nevermind
Turns out that 3.1 does NOT support wifi on channel 13.
Moved my home network to channel 11 and everything works again
Note:
Windows 7, Android 2.1, Android 2.2
They all mysteriously support ch13 networks.
Can anyone confirm this?
If so; maybe someone should inform the kernel guys
I went to restart my Xoom Wifi a couple days ago because it wasn't detecting my local wifi signal and upon doing so it got stuck on the Motorola Dual Core screen.
I was able to access fastboot and send commands to it but could not get it to start up past the dual core screen.
I erased everything on my xoom, reset it to factory and still nothing. I downloaded RSD Lite and flashed what I thought was the US stock ROM and nothing happened...until I pulled out my SD card.
Now it boots all the way and has not issues running. If I put the SD card back in, problems start up again. What in the hell caused my SD card to do this?
So I'm also stuck back on Honeycomb 3.2 and it says my Xoom is up to date?
I guess this is as good a time as any to root and put a different ROM on it.
Has anyone had these issues? If I wasn't clear, this was a stock Xoom Wifi I hadn't done anything to it. I'd been using the SD card for about a month and then this happened.
I think it is a good time for you to root it and flash ICS 4.0.4 custom Rom fro EOS on your wifi xoom.
For the SD Card issue, try to format it first or try another one just to test.
To root and flash ICS ROM, the best out there, use this:

Good Luck...

While having root access and being rom'd might be a way to go... You should also try formatting your sd card. Perhaps it is corrupted and that is messing with your xoom. Honeycomb doesn't write to the sdcard without root in 3.2 and doesn't even look at the sdcard in 3.0, which is probably why honeycomb is working for you.
I have the Huawei E220 3G USB dongle and I read that a Revolver rom or Prime rom have more things (HSDPA driver...) built in to support a 3G dongle.
What is the latest rom that supports those 3G dongle's, can anyone post a link please as there are so much roms, and [3G] isn't always mentionned in the titles.
The latest one I found was a Revolver from April but we are August now, maybe there are newer ones meanwhile.
Do I need to install something extra on the tablet in order to recognise the 3G dongle then, maybe a 3G toggler.
How can you get into bootloader mode again, I forgot, I tried volume up + power off but only a black screen, not the android robot.
At the moment I work with ww-9.2.1.11-CWM-full-rooted rom
Thanks!

only megatron rom supports 3g dongle. search for it.
Thanks, I found the Megatron 1.1.6 is this the latest now that supports my Huawei E220 ?
The latest "Jellybean CyanogenMod 10 ♦ B5" seems nice but 3G doesn't work yet is stated and I don't know if it supports my Huawei.
Yesterday I searched the whole evening to flash this rom, but I have big trouble in clockworkmod recovery
When I select to install a zip from SDCARD it says that it didn't find the SD card, but today suddenly it works?!
Does the Huawei work directly when the rom is flashed when connecting via usb, or do I have to do some other actions first?
I also would like to know where I can download the Clockwork Touch recovery for free + how to install it.
I downloaded a rar file which contains .IMG file but I have no clue how to install this....

no jellybean rom supports 3g dongle for now, so you are stuck with megatron for now. as for cwm, search for cwm 6 by rayman and flash the zip file in your recovery.
TF101 Revolver 4.2.1 and 3G? :/

Is that true? I read around alot (for about some weeks now - and I had read a lot even before I got
my 3G-Stick) and actually there are some roms pretending to be able to support 3G.
Till now (and still want to) I used Revolver 4.1.1 and was pretty happy. Fast, reliable, no boots no nothing. Just
totally perfect for me.
Only disadvantage: No 3G. Even though there is a 3G enabler... which doesn't work at all. Well... it enables
"Mobile Settings" but manual search doesnt work, neighter the automatic one. Same with APN-Settings. So
what exactly is the point to get mobile settings, if they wont work anyway in the first place? Don't get it.
Am I doing something wrong?
I tried Megatron... but its Honeycomb, no? :/ Suxx. Lags on performance on many edges and also I don't like
the UI / Homescreen / Keyboard Layout and I'm not much into customizing. Also I jsut like the ASUS Style.
I'm kinda certain, that there will be problems (didn't try yet, coz the Backup is about 3GB) if I'd try to restore my Revolver 4.1.1 backup on it.
So I abandonned it again pretty fast (Even though 3G worked as a charm :/ ). Isn't there possibility to get Revolver to run
with my Huawei 161? Well I'm not a pro but I somehow can't imagin, why it should be so hard to get Revolver to work with
3G if even a Honeycomb Rom can?
I would have tried Prime 2.1 Vanilla... but all DL-Links I found are broken. The old Prime is way too outdated for my personal
demands to an up-to-date-rom.
Thanks, Pete

Revolver 4.2.1 done installing.
Revolver 4.2.1 done installing. Doing some basics now, try the app and will be right back.
Back as promised. Took a lil' longer, since I had to reinstall Revolver. Wasn't booting probably.
Anyway... back to PPP Widget. OMFG! Works like a charm!!!!
Took me some time to stop wondering why there is no app icon to start... then I realized I'm a stupid moron: It's even called "WIDGET".
... Well entered my Netzclub (o2) APN, pushed "connect" (Verbinden.. it's even in German)... just awesome. Will doneate as soon as my
Backup-restore is done, and paypal app re...
Srsly. Thank you a f*ckn lot! Some should make this Post sticky... or at least the link. I saw thousand of people having problems to get
3G to work...
Superb! You saved our day!!!
I don't follow the latest roms much, I see you work with the Revolver 4.2.0, is this one better than Megatron 1.1.6 and in which aspects ?
Or maybe I should try the latest Stable Cyogenmod X10 with that PPP Widget
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1858295
In this rom it's mentionned :
NOT WORKING:
NTFS R/W
3G
The question is : will 3G work with PPP widget then, or do they only mean it's not supported in this rom basically?

Your question is an interesting one, Innovator.
My official Asus ROM does not recognizes any operator network (even when unlocking that menu using "3GToggler" apk), but PPP Widget still does succeed. So I think that PPP Widget will probably work with that Cyanogen ROM (a great ROM, at my opinion) and you will have 3G data. Attending to its results, PPP Widget seems to include drivers, connection DLLs and so on; it is a great program, I will soon donate to the author.
Could you, please, post the results if you do test it? I wanna know what happens.

For sure it does work OK, Traithudo!
I have PPP Widget right now with CyanoGenMOD 10 v6 in my SL101 Slider. I use a Huawei USB 3G modem, and I can navigate (even SSH, VNC... etc) without a problem.
Speed (acording to tests) is fantastic, but I have only tested it in a low populated area (you know: mobile internet slowdowns when there are many users nearby... or so I think).

Thanks. I am running a stock ROM, and would love to know if PPP widget works on stock rom before I buy a 3g dongle.

Mine is a Huawei E1752C. Maybe the PPP Widget documentation or WhatsNew.log will tell what USB 3G devices are supported?

I can confirm that PPP Widget on a TF101 stock ROM (I'm currently on .27) supports 3g dongles - my specific dongle is a ZTE MF190, but you might want to have a look at the PPP Widget home page and the support forum to ensure you purchase one that is known to work. I can't post links at the moment, but I'm sure you can add 'www' to the beginning for yourself.

Have been using PPP Widget on my TF101 Revolver 4.0.3 - 4.2.1 With Huawai E161 - Flawless.
Worked great. Has some issues while reconnecting and stuff, but still the most easiest and best working solution.
The widget actually kinda annoyes while changing the desktops. Produces lags etc while initilizing.
Good day...
I have a Samsung GT 10.1 P7500, and I have rooted my tablet, and flashed rooms before.
And I flashed a JB rom, This one. The rom was great and all, but then when I wanted to flash back to ICS, something happened and my tab got "lost" it's internal storage. So when I tried to access the root folders on my tablet (Using file manager) it says "no internal storage found" and when i tried to access using computer, the GT icon shows up (Like a USB), but when i click inside, there is nothing there. No internal storage.
SO after a while, I thought I had to install a rom using Odin. Which I did. I went to Sammobile.com and downloaded their ICS rom and flashed it using Odin. And it WORKED! Everything was back to normal... EXCEPT for one thing... my 3G connection...
And I have flashed different roms thinking that I may have flashed a P7510 rom... SO I flashed: This ICS rom and also This Jelly Bean Rom
I made SURE I downloaded the P7500 ROM.
***And for those that may ask, my sim card is active. I tried it on 2 phones, and they both reads the sim card. And if questions about the unlocking and all, the tablet was bought in the same country as the sim. Plus I have used the sims (And many other sims from the same country and they all worked.) so it shouldn't be the unblocking... [But I may stand under correction]***
Does anyone have any idea what is wrong with the tablet? Was it something I did or is the sim reader in the tablet broken (Which i hope not...)
please help...
Thanks in advance
