Has your Xoom ever been sent in for the 4G/LTE upgrade? or is it still 3G only? I ask because the 3G models as shipped were MZ600, and post 4G Upgrade they report MZ602. I would question if this impacts which ROM you need to flash.
The fastboot files posted at => http://developer.motorola.com/products/software/ have HRI66 for the 3G (non upgraded) xoom MZ600, and HLK75D for the 4G/LTE Upgraded Xoom MZ602.
Mine was an original MZ600 3G/Wifi Xoom, sent away and upgraded to 4G/LTE, now reports MZ602. I've never tried flashing the MZ600 files to it after the upgrade, so I don't know what would happen.
If yours has been upgraded, maybe try flashing the HLK75D files.

[Q] Can I flash the Canadian wifi firmware on 3G US Xoom?

hi,
I bought a Verizon 3G Xoom in the US and took it back home to Denmark. Now, the 3G doesn't work of cause, but on top of this some app (like Good Tech for Enterprise) won't run because they think I belong to the verizon network (that don't allow Good Tech).
So long story short. I don't need 3G and I would like to lose the verizon stigma. My xoom is already rooted. Can I run the Canadian wifi fireware on it?
Doubtful.

The user successfully flashed Canadian firmware on a US WIFI version Xoom. If you read this thread:

the user accidentally flashed 3G firmware on a WIFI and it seems to me that it worked until he tried to unroot it again.
Why would you state that its not possible?

3g firmware on wifi devices has already caused issues in the past.
I would assume that you are asking for nothing but trouble the other way as well.

Hi
I did this today with mine, following these guides in the following order, the first one roots the 3.0.1 install our xooms shipped with, and the second one handles the upgrade to 3.1 and rooting on 3.1

Hi, I previousy flashed my xoom with the clockworkmod recovery images (HC 3.1), (which are US) and i dont have 3g anymore... is there a way to flash back to euro/AU stock or rooted (idk i just want 3g back lol)?
thanks in advance!
Upgrading to 3.1 and keeping 3g ??
Has anyone with a Telstra Xoom upgraded to 3.1 and kept 3g??
I have rooted my stock xoom now want to enable the SD and upgrade to 3.1 but would like to have a functioning 3g
I am having trouble finding the guide to enabling the sdcard. I have installed clockworkmod but it is useless without the sdcard ???
Help need ..... I am wondering if anyone out there are able to send me the files to enable 3g on Telstra as described in this post.
My situation is a follows. I have an Australian Telstra xoom and tried one of the 1 click root programs. After much pain and research I now realise 2 things. 1/ this completely stuffed by device, it now hangs at the logo on boot. 2/ even if it did work it is for US networks only. I have worked my way through the posts and have managed to recover the device by fastbooting with the euro boot.img described in this post. Problem is no 3g. This post provides a description of how to extract the Telstra 3g files for the device before it gets trashed. I did not do this. So I am assuming I now need to source these files from someone who has a working Telstra xoom.
Can anyone out these assist......

I Have the same problem! i tried to root my telstra xoom and got bricked.
I then flashed the german images.
I have now updated to HC 3.1, from the german rom to the us one, (i used this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1089695) hoping that it may fix the carrier probs, to no avail.
I can see the telstra network (as well as vodafone etc.) but the xoom doesnt connect to it, and if i try to manually pick the network, it says "registered on network" but i still dont have network access
Edit: Would someone be able to upload the files from their working telstra xoom, so that we can push them to ours in a last ditch effort?
Frustrating isn't it... I think if we can get someone to rip the telstra comms (as described in the original post) files off a working AUS Telstra Xoom we may be ok. This is a bit of a guess but worth a try?
see thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1100372
which may have your answer
yes have a look at the thread suggested above as I have been the one posting to that and the files have fixed my 3g problems. Now connected to telstra no probs.
See my recent post on that thread as I still have a remaining problem with wifi.
YAY

Thanks So Much! (+1) I got it working now, with 3.01, couldnt make 3.1 work... but i dont care. as long as it works!
Hi all, I also have a Telstra Xoom (MZ601).
I have already upgraded to 3.1 and the Tiamat deodexed ROM 1.0, but before I did that I made a nandroid backup of the original images.
Like most people, I do not have 3G data capability, but I can apparently make and receive phone calls, so it is sort of working.
I have the original build.prop and other images; would they help?

[Q] Can the mz604 factory image be flashed on the mz602

Can the mz604 (wifi only xoom) factory image from the motorola developer site be flashed via fastboot to the mz602 (4G xoom), basically converting the mz602 into a mz604?
I understand that the mobile data wouldn't work obviously, but I don't care about that as I don't have active Verizon service. I'm currently running Team EOS 1.0 and it is running great so I'm not just looking for a way to get ICS on my Xoom. I actually want to know if it is possible to convert my 4G xoom into a wifi xoom in terms of software so that I can enjoy the latest OTA updates without Verizon holding up the process.
Thanks.

Short answer: no.
And besides, if you are already on a custom rom then why not just stay on it?

[Q] FIDO Razr HD LTE problems!

Hello all -
New to Android platform. Hope someone from this great forum can assist ... I'll try to be brief. First, my device:
Razr HD LTE xt925
FIDO
Android v.4.1.2
Had attempted a little while ago to unroot my phone, as I was curious about better customization options. For various reasons, I tried to 're-root' and go back to factory. Did that, upgraded from ICS Jellybean 4.1.2 (which is what my phone was on when purchased).
Now, when I boot the phone, I still get the message 'Bootloader is unlocked'. After upgrading from ICS to Jellybean, I saw a large number of Verizon specific apps. When booting the phone, instead of the Motorolla 'M' icon/splash, I get a 'Droid' icon, with sound-effects. Also, System Version shows as 9.16.XT926.Verizone.en.US (even though my phone is an XT925 on FIDO). I obviously fudged something up... !
Most importantly, ever since, my GPS is very spotty, and I cannot get on the FIDO LTE network. In Mobile Networks setting, I have to always have 'Global' selected as network. If I choose LTE/CDMA or GSM/UMTS, it can never find an available network.
I'm really just trying to get my phone back to the state is was when I purchased it.
Any ideas would be GREATLY appreciated!

Here's the JB file for Fido/Rogers:
http://sbf.droid-developers.org/van...12.2_CANADA_VANQJBLTEFRCI_P004_CFC_fb.xml.zip
Thanks very much for your reply. I did try flashing with the FIDO file you quoted, and my phone didn't take it. I booted to fastboot, current drivers, and the RSD Lite message I got was:
Failed flashing process. 1/21 flash partition "partition_signed" -> Phone returned FAIL
The corresponding message on my phone was: Failed flashing process. 1/21 flash partition "partition_signed" -> Phone returned FAIL
Hope someone has an idea on how to successfully get back to the FIDO Android v.4.1.2.
Thank you all!
Have you removed the Getvar lines? You can also try the Telcel rom with Fido modem/fsg files placed into it. (That's what I had before custom roms because Fido was slow with JB).
Yes, I did try when removing getvar line in the xml.
I stated erroneously the error on my phone after trying the intitial FIDO flash - the phone error in fact was:
downgraded security version
update gpt_main version failed
preflash validation failed for GPT
I appreciate the input. Any other thoughts on this? I regret trying to unroot the damned thing in the first place... !

From what I can see, those errors come when trying to downgrade to ICS through RSD but you are trying to install JB so that makes no sense. Since you are bootloader unlocked you can probably flash the files through fastboot?
no worries man...calm down...you'll be fine...i had the same issue..i'm actually using an xt925 as well; had the same issue a couple of days back...see the issue is the ROMs that you see for xt925/926 is actually the ROM for verizon, so when you flashed a custom ROM, it actually flashed your GSM radio to the version radio, which is CDMA; These are the steps you need to follow, and you're good to go, trust me:
1). After deleting the getvar line, delete 2 lines below it as well, so lines 12 and 13, then try flashing with this new xml file. really imp, this will take about 5-10 mins, then the phone will reboot, dont unplug the cable yet, it's gonna reboot, and ask to sync phone with SIM, do that....and you're good to go.
2). Root.
3). Install TWRP, preferably 2.5, then backup your stockROM.
4). I would recommend using Matt's utility for xt926, and you can perform all the steps in sequence.
note: Since you unlocked your bootloader, you will always get that warning message, it's normal.
lemme know if it works!
eomahos I am in your debt. Worked like a charm!
In step 4 you indicated using 'Matt's utility for xt926' ... I'm not familiar with the utility. Do I use this to install TWRP?
Thanks again man!

Lost baseband while updating or rooting Lollipop

Hi guys. I bought my Shield Tablet LTE on Amazon. Somehow, while updating, flashing cwm, flashing boot, etc. in order to root Lollipop, I JUST realized (after a couple of hours) that I have lost the baseband on my tablet. Everything works smoothly, but when I go into About -- Device -- Baseband --> UNKNOWN
Could it be I flashed the US version of LTE and my shield that I bought from Amazon was LTE but not ATT branded?
Is there something I can do to restore the baseband so I don't have to go and install everything again?
Thanks!
Carlos
fixed it. I had used the wrong boot image.... my Shield Tablet was bought from Amazon, unbranded LTE. I had used the International LTE boot image, not the US as I mentioned above. With the US LTE image everything worked. Sorry for this confusion.

I had the same issue after I OTG my LTE to Nougat. After I did a factory reset, I lost baseband/IMEI. I contacted Nvidia and advised me to flash stock recovery image. I confirmed my LTE is International so was recommended to use RoW image. After I successfully flashed the tablet, it got stuck on reboot loop. Homescreen comes on for 3 seconds and I could make out no SIM detected, but unable to use tablet as it keeps rebooting. Did you have the same issue when you used the RoW image instead of USA?
