My wifi+3g XOOM is not reading my sim card - Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

When I received my XOOM it had asked for a sim card and all was working fine whether I use my mobile network or wifi,but after a latest update it has stopped reading sim card and mobile network settings are disabled,is it possible that Motorola pushed wifi only XOOM updates and it was not meant for this model?
P.S. I already tried factory reset.

No more 3G for you either. Sorry. :-(

That's bad,especially when you pay extra bucks to get a 3G supporting XOOM, thanks for the reply

well Motorola keeps my Xoom for 4 weeks to revert it back to old firmware and all is working fine now, now I want to root my Xoom which I can do using universal rooting method here but need suggestion on which rom to flash as I don't want to lose 3g connectivity again . I am in India so will UK based roms will work here for me ?

Did the settings for mobile network get changed somehow? Check under wireless settings and make sure the box for using mobile network is checked. If not you may have to Odin back to stock with modded 3e and root.

att stock firmware has issue to create a new fake new invalid empty apn
I just bought my first infuse yesterday and i really like it only one problem though it wont connect to data with my personal sim but when i put my company sim in it works is there an app or download i can install to override this issue or do i need to get a new sim card? Btw the company sim card that works is an old 64 cingular sim card and the one that doesnt has 3g att on it . Any help is appreciated thankks Sam
That doesn't make sense. Call ATT and tell them your sim doesn't work.

I can't remember, neither of us have infuses anymore. We switched to SGS2's lol.
I think its the one in the MIUI thread.

[Q] Xoom 4G chip Swap help

Please help.
My first XOOM (Verizon 4G LTE) got sort of smashed in an accident.
I found a second Xoom to replace it with, activating it with no issue (3G).
The problem I am having is the 2nd Xoom has not had the 4G upgrade done on it.
So I took the 4G chip off of the motherboard on the "old" xoom and installed it on the new Xoom.
I then popped in the SIM card and "Activate"d it.
It is not seeing the 4G LTE. I am assuming there must need to be a firmware upgrade of some kind, but I have no idea where to find it or how to install it.
Does anybody have a clue on this?
Thank you.
But 3g works? Like ur 4g chip seemz to be doing fine?

Yes, the 3G has always worked fine. It's just that the firmware does not recognize the 4G chip, so ONLY 3G works.
I'm hoping I can download and install the firmware without having to root the device.
Even if u flash a 4g rom only 3g works? Did u try playing around with the frequency bands? Btw goood job with successfully replacing the chip !

He hasn't flashed a 4G enabled ROM because he doesn't want to root.

That is correct, although after talking to a Verizon tech tonight, I don't think I will have a choice.
Is there a solid ROM out there? From everything I've been reading, sacrifices are made with these ROMs like lack of WiFi.
you don't need to root to flash a 4G rom....
you only need the stock 4G rom.
here is a link to the Motorola page to get the rom and how to flash.

You may need to update the bootloader too.

(Q) how to return 3g to stock form...or at least a ROM that will allow 3g to work.

What method or rom could I flash to enable 3g to work? I missed the 4g upgrade and have just been flashing WiFi (wingray) ROMs since, but if I sell this thing, I'd want the buyer to be able to use their data plan if they had one.
Thanks

Assuming you have an MZ601 xoom then the everest Roms are what you are looking for.
Mine is a us 3, believe it's a 600

EE is T-Mobile and Orange therefore the EE Rom is the one you need.

Should work. Is your IMEI still intact?
If you dial *#06# and have no IMEI then chances are if you are rooted then you used the wrong root package.

IMEI is present and correct. Think I might be returning it on Monday for a replacement

This maybe what he needs as he never specified T-Mobile Germany.

Thanks for the link. Finally got it working again. Visited an EE shop, asked to try the sim in one of their handsets, once powered on the connection worked. This led me to think it was either the handset or the firmware. Put the sim back in my phone and voila, the connection worked! For some reason it appears the simcard was acting up, cant explain why

Tested yesterday to factory reset the phone with a new blanc installation of 2013/10/04.
Got no signal, the shown provider was verizon instead of vodafone. Dont if there were any changes in support of german/europe frequences?
Was gone back on my backed up version from 2013/09/01. This has higher batterycdrain and lower performance, but all is working.
Ideas anyone?
