I have installed the Motorola Tools but don't know what else it could be. Any ideas?

Did you forget to turn on USB debugging on the XOOM?
Also, you did install the right drivers for your OS, right? You didn't install the 32-bit drivers on 64-bit, etc.

yeah i have done all that. the xoom shows up under my computer and I can drag and drop files to it.

Is fastboot in the platform tools folder?

thanks for your help guys, since I had a xoom for a while there were 5.3 motorola drivers that I had to uninstall and then install the 5.2 motorola drivers.
i think i messed something up though. after I did the bootloader unlock I am stuck on the big M logo saying dual core technology and it doesn't do anything else. ooooops

It wipes your device so try downloading a clockwork image and fastboot flash it and get yourself a custom Rom

I can't help because I don't know how Xyboard works. You should put (Xyboard/Xoom2) in the title of your OP, then you will attract the right help. Good luck.
Thanks..
oh.. thanks..
just wish somebody have same case like me that solved..
Have u tried running any commands in adb like fastboot reboot
Mod or Die
Someone help me out here... I know you can root devices without unlocking the bootloader but I thought, in order to flash, you need an unlocked bootloader.

Yes, but i already 'solved'
I think it was a damaged usb on my computer or something.
Great, just another thing, there are already enough threads for JB leak info and root, better if you just post your questions in those threads rahter than making a new one.. makes less of a clutter..

[Q] Can i connect my Tab 2 7.0 to my computer in recovery mode?

So, i want to connect my Tab 2 7.0 to my computer in recovery. ( I am on TWRP 2.1.4 )
It's connected and charging, but somehow this:

"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
and this:
My computer does detect it, and my drivers are working perfectly. Lastest version even. I did reinstall + reboot in case.
I'd like to see if there is any way to connect my tab to my computer so i can access "/sdcard" or, if i can't, just ADB?
Any help will be appreciated. Sorry for the couple of threads i made, but i need help and i am not genius as everyone is here.

What do you get with the command: fastboot devices?
Why is GooManager not working for you? Did you install the open recovery script through it?
Did it ask for su permission when you first ran it?
Are you sure you are unlocked and in the bootloader menu when running the first fastboot command?

Help with restoring Droid Ultra!

Hello my XDA Developers I hope that you can help me with my phone, last week I bought a Droid Ultra fromo Ebay, and I received the phone but I think that it was a demo phone with a demo software from the store because the phone can not charge more than the 40%, and the app "VZW Demo"" is opened again and again doesnt matter how much I uninstall the app, I restore the phone from settings and doesnt work, I been tried to root the phone for flashing a ROOM but I cant, I been tried to return to stock the phone form this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2580060 but im having troubles with the ADB and rebooting to the bootloader, seems like my pc doesnt recognize the phone (see images), and yes I have the USB debug enable, but with other phones my pc can recognize, the only way that my computer can recognize the droid ultra its from de recovery but from there I can not reboot to the bootloader, I downloaded the properly drivers and still nothing, I hope you guys cand help me, you are my last chance, sorry for my english its not the best im not from this country

will the phone boot into fastboot? with the phone off, vol down + pwr ?
I used method 2 manual flashing from the thread you linked to. It was not a developer phone, and the commands said they all failed, but the phone still returned to stock.
