Has anyone had any success manually updating or getting an OTA update in Canada for a wifi-only Xoom (Canadian)?
If not, Is it possible to switch my rom from Canadian (I don't care for localization) to USA so that I can get 3.1.
I'm 100% stock and not rooted (although it's subject to change anyway =D)
Thanks =D
Have the same question, US rom on Canada Xoom!!
i doesn't matter which rom u come from....at the end of the day...if you manual update using the method in the development section.....it will become the US rom version.......
i used the canadian rom and updated using that method.........after i finished.....there will only be 2 language in the language section (english and spanish....)......
the model # will change as well...but u can changed the build.prop to change it back

model # is the same between the us and canadian model 604
I can confirm that American Firmware works on a Canadian Xoom.. as I am now on 3.1 and I bought my Xoom mz604 (Wifi Only) in Canada =D
I rooted via ADB if thats relevant
I have the American version on mine and it works fine. Just add the proper spelling of colour to the dictionary and you're good to go.
Anyone else got the 1.78.401.2 FW update?
I have no clue of what it entails...
I also updated!
Installing ...
1.78.401.2 just came out today yet people are already requesting ROM's based on 1.78.401.2....
Also got the update (after manually checking for it) and installing as we speak.
Hope its fixing at least some of the numerous bugs (wireless, wifi, 3G issue, etc) that everybody has with (unbranded) HOS.
G.
I also haven't got any notification but based on this thread tried and am downloading right now - it's 59MB.
Will update the status since I'm among the network issues suffering customers...
Does it include a new baseband (radio)?
Nothing in the UK yet
I'm guessing you guys are all US HOS owners, no update in the UK yet. Are there any release notes?
I checked manually for updates and it worked.
HTC says only "system enhancements"
we will see...
@rboekee
i have the EU - version, unbranded that's the important thing...
Update is not working for those having a custom recovery installed...
After flashing the Stock Recovery with this wonderful One klick tool the Update is working just fine...

I had my Bootloader unlocked via HTCdev... Seems like an unlocked Bootloader has got nothing to do with this issue!
To keep your Phone rooted after the update, use OTA Rootkeeper from the Playstore!

there is a new base band: 0.16.31501S.17_2_10.23.315.01S.10L
BTW, It now includes also Hebrew T9 in the phone!!! (only if you change your phone language to Hebrew fully)
Just got mine at the weekend, have tried checking for an update there and theres nothing happening at the mo.
3 UK, sim locked, no root, no customer recovery.
I forgot to mention, I'm with a EU phone.

Sorry if this is the wrong place to ask, but can I flash the radio if I am dev-unlocked?
Seems like it's not available in the US yet? I tried checking in and then check for update but nothing. Asked the woman to do the same and no update for her either. I'm in Boston btw.
For those with the update in the US how is the signal? Is it jumping up and down still? I'm getting tired of this and tried everything so I'm hoping it's the radio firmware and not the hardware itself.
Sent from the One.
The update is only available for unbranded EU phones.
Edit:
It looks like Vodafone Germany has also released the update.

If you didn't know the HTC way of numbering their FW then I can tell you that the *.401.* designates the EU version (possibly the WW version too)...
And yes... I live in Sweden and my HOS is unbranded...
Yep just unbranded only..
Sent from the One.
Mine also an unbranded one.
As for the update itself, it seems that the radio issues are not yet solved.
3g/H issues are still here.
I did notice that on a certain place which has no reception, with the old radio I was still with reception signal though no actual reception was present, while with the new radio the reception really drops to no signal status.
Yet, as I mentioned, there data switches which are interfering to the data transfer are still here... :-(

I can confirm as well that data issue still here H/3G still interrupting a contstand data stream.
Also can confirm that the signal is lower compared the previous update.
My HOS is EU unbranded.
I cannot see any Hebrew language added after the installation.
I know you can flash mz604 nightlie but what about european wifi 3g users?
There is no official CM support for Xoom 3G Europe. Not much for us as far as I know.:crying:
just flash ur 3g to wifi only if u do not use ur 3g like me. i flashed my 3g to wifi and enjoying all the support ;-)
How did you flash 3g on top of wifi rom?
Sent from my Xoom using Tapatalk 2
you can flash it...you will just loose the 3g capabilities of your zoom...that is not advisable
wait till cm team launches cm10 jellybean
If you are talking about the mz601 EU (3G/UMTS) version...
Team EOS just released their first set of nightly JB builds for this device.
Looks good so far, follow the instructions on page1, do a full wipe/factory reset and you will most likey get working 3G.

You mean like lose it forever?
@ new-noob
I flashed it myself yesterday evening.
No problems with the process at all.
I´m from germany and my 3g /umts conncetion worked right out of the box.
Get build #84 and the gapps from the first post.
Place on SD Card and fire up your recovery.
Factory reset, wipe cache, wipe dalvik
Install the ROM and then gapps right after.
Boots just fine, System itself is stable for me, of course some apps crash but I guess they just need to get updated for JB.
Battery life seems to have improved a bit, nothing to worry about.
Without changing any performance settings, for me its pretty fast, I didn´t noticed any lags so far
There are some small bugs within the settings menu, but according to the early status of the rom, I bet EOS will kill them pretty soon as well as
adding all their nice little extras.
@eyriiii
No, flashing a wifi only rom just means that there a re no radio/umts driver modules included so the system doesn´t know how to use the radio module. whenever you flash a rom with those drivers again, your 3g/umts radio will work like normal. It´s just software, not killing hardware in any way.
Installed jb on my mz601 3G
3G works
Sd card works
DolphinHD has flash turned off but native browser plays youtube etc...
Rom is a bit different and switching between apps has nicer look
There is app for sms
App grouping
Some apps has moe options from menu (or whatever you call tapping the clock)
Some apps crash but uninstalling and not using widgets helped did the job on my xoom
There are some minor bugs but everything is explained here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1777987
In general:
Its faster
Its smoother
Feels better
Geat job from EOS DEVELOPERS ONCE AGAIN!!!
Great you made it, you won´t regret buddy
Its amazing how different is my xoom now!
Enjoy urs to!
Lke it was with the eos ICS rom, the eos JB rom kills lots of limits we had before.
This is again, pushing the fun factor while working on the xoom, to a new level.
FYI, there is a new nightly release #85 along with a new updated gapps package, just take a look at the dev thread

Yes installed already and must agree these feels like different xoom on jb cool!
Still have some issues with some apps like freenote, dolphin hd (cant zoom in/out) but in overal its great!
Most of the app crashes are due to the fact that these apps are not updated to fully support JB yet.
This is not Team EOS fault, its the app developers that are "a little late to the party"
Give them some time to get everything up-to date and it will be easy as always.
ICS for MZ601 malaysia
Does anyone know if the European 3G MZ601 roms can be flashed on a Malaysia / Asia Pac MZ601 3G xoom?
I want to try ICS on my xoom, but mine is a Malaysian model =(

Sorry, not trying to duplicate posts but looking for an answer for the following
I flashed my Xoom 3G EU MZ601 eith Build HWI69, I don't care about not having 3G, everything is working perfectly but I noticed when I check my serial number in settings>about>status that the serial number is not the same as the IMEI number on the box, I am not sure if they are supposed to be the same, also when trying to register my product on the Motorola website it does not recognise my MAC address. Can someone please clarify.
