Bought xoom instead of xoom2 - Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Did I make the right choice??? Refurbished from wal mart.
I figured I could get a kernel to get me were xoom2 is at.
Hope I get some positive feedback

If you want to mod, you've got the right device. You have several good choices for custom roms/kernels. You can root and install ClockWorkMod recovery made especially for the Xoom (I use solarnz's R4c, v. 3.2.0.0) and either stick with Team Tiamat Moray rom/Odachi kernel or the 4G LTE version if that's what you have, or if you're adventurous, you could flash the latest Team Eos ICS (Android 4) rom. Check out this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1249798 for getting root and look in the Development section for the ICS nightlies.

Is xoom1 the same processor? I wasn't sure if buying the xoom2 was worth it.

Xoom 2 isn't worth it. Same processor (I believe) with a 200MHz overclock.
*edit*
Actually just found out its an OMAP 4430. Not sure how it compares to the tegra2.
*edit2*
Bah, another website says its a tegra2. So i don't know.

I do think it's OMAP, but not rootable/moddable at this time, so, blah.

luckily I decided for the Xoom then
I also was deciding on getting the Xoom 2
thx for clearing things up

Just for your information...
Xoom:
CPU: NVIDIA Tegra 2 T20 Dual Core @ 1 GHz
GPU: NVIDIA AP (a.k.a. tegra 2)
Xoom 2:
CPU: TI OMAP4430 @ 1.2 GHz
GPU: PowerVR SGX 540
Info:
http://developer.motorola.com/products/xoom-mz604/
http://developer.motorola.com/products/xoom-2-mz615/
I think it's best sticky with Xoom 1 instead of the Xoom 2.

It was initially planned to have a Dual Core Tegra 2, I believe.
Sent from my ADR6400L using XDA App
I dont see what the fuss is, my thunderbolt kills my xoom w/ tegra 2 all over the cpu benchmarks. Dual core is more of a gimmick than anything right now with these phones.
I still don't see why we need dual and coming soon quad core processors. With stock android everything runs great.

When the os is written to make use of multi-core processors battery life should improve. That's the biggest plus I can think of at the moment.

By the time that happens, youll be on an new phone anyways (probably another year or two). I guess some people (like the OP) will never be happy with the current phone they have.

That would actually be pretty cool, although I don't think it would be possible due to the fact that WebOS isn't designed to run on the Tegra 2 Platform. Then again, I might be wrong.

Exactly... the fact that it is open source does not mean squat... you have to have drivers to link the hardware to the software... and even if nvidia releases all the source code for the tegra2 drivers this will not matter as it is coded for android...
fundamentally it is possible to do, the only problem is one would have to code the drivers and everything related to them from the ground up with having very little clue where to start... a next to impossible feat...

After the radio and GPS problems with this phone (and apparently with the Fascinate) I will probably not buy a Samsung again. Either moto or HTC, and especially moto if they have something like the razr maxx (samoled and a massive battery) by the time I upgrade in 1.5 years.

I still have another year or so with this phone. Maybe I'll see a working ICS
Anyway, I hope they figure out a way to stuff a Tegra 4 into a phone by the time my upgrade rolls around.

Afaik Intel will be behind on the mobile processors for a while because they are just entering... But it will be interesting to see how x86 fares against arm. Who knows maybe they will be better come upgrade time.

re
either the snap dual core or the quad core.. either way it will be gobs better than the Charge.
The frustrations this phone and the Fascinate have caused, I look forward to using a phone from another manufacturer.
Supposedly HTC is coming out with a Note competitor this summer.
I'm actually quite happy how my phone has performed. I haven't had any issues besides a couple of force quits from some apps. They just had bugs in them though. I've had my phone for 7 months and I've been quite happy. Got it right around the Gingy update. I guess I would upgrade if a decent phone came out that had all of the bells and whistles.
The ReZound has almost everything but it's missing a few odds and ends. Still an awesome phone. I find myself playing with my wife's ReZound from time to time. The iPhone 5 almost sounds promising, but I want to see what is going to compete with it once it comes out. I guarantee something awesome is going to blow the iPhone out of the water. Waiting...

Word is that Samsung's quad core exynos is incompatible with US LTE frequencies because they don't make it in that specification or something, which is why the US version will have the s4 like the one x on at&t.

Gay. Why is it the states get the ****ty end of the stick when it comes to android phones? Phones have to be modified to come to the states and then the same phone that released in europe, korea, and china differs from what we get here.

Maybe because they aren't US based companies? Motorola is, and I am pretty sure the US moto phones are released before their international equivalents. Also, US carriers run on different frequencies from everyone else.
I am pretty excited for it. I am waiting to use it hands on before I make the dive. My plan just went up a few days ago so I am waiting to test this before upgrading if it comes to Verizon.

Samsung SHV-E110S Galaxy S II LTE

From what I can see this phone is identical to ours. It's the Korean sgs2 lte and has source code released for ICS on the Samsung open source center.
Could someone maybe confirm this to be true or tell me why I'm dumb.

Horn for GN10.1?

Hey all. Like many others, I was excited about todays release of Horn by Phosphor on the Play Market.
After some research, I found out it was only for Tegra 2 and 3s...? But on the Play Store website, it says it is compatible with the Galaxy Note 10.1.
Has anyone purchased it? Does it work?

Considering I managed to get Dark Meadow to work on the Galaxy Note 10.1,, I am somewhat convinced this may be able to work as well. Really not into coughing up $7 to try though... >.>
oh, why not -.-
I'm gonna be a test dummy! Downloading it right now.
no it doesn't work. I bought it for my N7 and installed it on the note 10.1 also. It will not work on the note.
Yep, just tried it with Chainfire 3D in various settings. it simply exits out. Fortunately was able to get a refund. Oh well. Too bad. Looks interesting. Too bad I don't know the first thing about hacking up the apk file to make it work in the same way Dark Meadow does. But yeah, Dark Meadow from the market crashes just the same way this does, but the fixed apk works. Meh.
Thanks y'all. Weak it doesn't work. Stupid nvidia.
just go to playstore on web,older THD games are all compatible
