[Q] Do I have the right version of the Play store? - Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,
I am beginning to wonder if I have the right version of the Play store on my Xoom.
I am thinking I have an older version/mobile version because the font is very large, in fact, it's an eyesore.
Here is a photo of the Play store once I open it:
http://i.imgur.com/UFRXs.jpg
And here is when I search for an app:
http://i.imgur.com/3pMBc.jpg
Looking at that photo, it doesn't look too big, but when you hold the tablet in front of you, it looks massive!
http://i.imgur.com/MwoK9.jpg
This is still quite large, but much better looking.
Also, another question, shouldn't the beta Chrome browser not be there? I don't see it.
I did a factory reset a few days ago, and when I opened play (if I recall correctly) it said it was updating to a new version, but said there was an error.
(I have not rooted my Xoom (yet ) so I cannot take screenshots)
So, is this the right version, and if not, how can I update?
Thanks! :good:

The latest version of it is 3.5.19

Ok, thanks. I'll root it later today maybe, now that I got the SD card out.
I should be able to get an ICS ROM then, right?
EDIT: Wait, I just remembered something.. Mine is the international (if that's what you call it) version, as it has no Verizon branding on it, and I have no contract either. Will I get an OTA ICS update? When did it come out for the rest of you?

Yeah, head over to the android development section and there are a variety of different ICS roms, try some and see which one suits you best

If you want root try LordAIOTool, it's an easy method to root Linux version is the most updated one. Good luck

Yes. Chrome is for ics. To get it, you need to be rooted. With market enabler, select the american t mobile market and search for it. It is there as beta version.
To root, which xoom type is it? Mz60x?
For the best rom ever released for xooms, it is from team eos.

The hope that we can have, is with an international update for a phone that allows unlocked bootloaders. It took 4-6 months for the Atrix to get that. We will have to wait for more International versions of the Atrix 2 to be released so that we can find that "one" version with an unlocked bootloader, it is a one in a thousand kind of a chance, at this point.
We don't need an unlocked bootloader for great things on this phone, really the only thing we CAN'T do is overclock, but there might be ways around that too, I have a way, but it has softbricked 2 devices so far, so if we can get an sbf (which is the real key to all of our happiness), we will really be in business.
Even with an sbf or an fxz file, we can have ROMs, we just need a few ROM developers to want to work on this phone.

[Q] UK Xoom WiFI to GED (ICS OTA?)

Hi Guys
I've got a 604 UK Xoom Wifi with Honeycomb 3.2 running. I've not rooted it or flashed it.
I'm looking for the easiest way to make it a GED that will receive OTA updates to ICS and then Jellybean when it comes out. I've looked through numerous threads and am really confused!
Any recommendations are much appreciated!
Thanks in advance!
Im sure someone will come by and point to a guide on XDA but in the interim I did this on my UK Wifi only Xoom to get to GED (and thus ICS)
http://www.xoomforums.com/forum/motorola-xoom-hacking-guides/6591-how-uk-wifi-us-ged.html
Took all of 30 mins max to complete.
I've thanked you, thanks.
Did you get ICS automatically, or did you need to check for the updates?
Also, what version of Windows/Linux are you running?

[Q] EOS Stable for Wingray?

OK, so I finally flashed a custom rom. I was happy for the beginning of it. Then after using the browser for a while I noticed that sometimes when I try to go back to a page, it won't go back. It will reload the current page which is quite annoying. Now what I really wanted to ask is whether there is a Stock Jelly Bean rom with root available for the UK MZ604 Wifi only model? I'm guessing that in the Stock Jelly Bean there shouldn't be any minor bugs at all, right?
Any help at all would be appreciated.
With regards,
Beston94

So sorry but isn't that for the US Wifi Xoom as it states in the thread? Or is it compatible with all the WiFi versions?
which rom did u flash? on eos 3.0 i dont have this problem
Hey.
EOS V3 stable release wasn't good on my UK wifi only Xoom, however V2 EOS is great so I went back to it.
I found web based videos were slowing down and jerky, also some web pages loaded greyed out almost which was annoying.

Thanks for your reply. I want it to be the 8013 because that's the US version and it comes with an app I really want. (The KNO textbooks app). It's only available on the US version. I have seen the two rooting methods, but neither explicitly says if I can change the 8010 to US firmware.

so just edit your build.prop, change the stuff from 8010 to 8013 and that will let you install that app. That was what I did to get the 4.2 camera working on this tablet before other librarys were put out to have it working right, switched to make it think it was a nexus.
So make those changes and then install the app, making a backup first of course

The only bad thing about Jelly Bean is you are going to be forced to update your HBOOT in order to run it. I'm just hoping useful source comes out of it as I won't run it for that reason. I like flashing my kernels from recovery.

Are you on AT&T? are you on 2.20? If yes to both, or you are in Australia despite your profile location, you can download the OTA but not flash it. You can copy the OTA package off your phone and upload it for devs.
