I don't want to root my xoom or use a rooted system at the current time. Sorry just my preference. I've updated my xoom to the latest version jelly bean and would like to utilize the offline dictation. Does anyone know how i can turn on the offline dictation feature on the OTA Xoom Jellybean? I know this feature is readily available on the EOS nightly build, which was great BTW.

If your Xoom has the 4.1 update then offline dictation is already working.

I noticed that there are new version of google maps 5.7.0 & gmail 2.3.5.
I don't know why I cannot update them on my Xoom. My Xoom is on 3.2 Tiamat ROM.
Can somebody help me to update it ?
Thanks
You need to be root. Follow this post for Maps Update.

No root, 3.1 3g xoom
Gmail on the market isn't compatible with my xoom. What up with that?

My xoom has already got rooted . I've also already tried the method. The problem is I cannot find any googlemaps in the market.
The GMail on the market is for anything up to Android 2.3.4 only since your Xoom has Gmail 3.2 which is newer than 2.3.4, remember 3.2 is a higher version #, Honeycomb 3.1 comes with Gmail 3.1.

Version code, not the user-oriented VersionName is used by the market to determine newer APK. They must be Max SDK filtering. Its actually listed as incompatible on honeycomb.

Manage Applications in Settings or Titanium Backup will show it. Honeycomb 3.1 comes with Gmail 3.1 and Honeycomb 3.2 comes with Gmail 3.2, both are 3.x while the market version is 2.x.
I have a completely stock US WIFI only Xoom and Maps updated to 5.8.0 automatically.
I have posted a couple methods for updating Maps in the Tiamat rom thread

Which Tiamat ROM are you using? Manta Ray states that not being able to update maps is a known issue that is being worked on. Looked under the "Release Notes" section on the first post here:

Now that Jelly Bean is soon to be released to many devices and now that Adobe has stopped support for Adobe Flash on Android Jelly Bean and on August 15th they will prohibit new downloads on the Google Play Store, we need somewhere where we can get the apk because we will no longer be able to retrieve it from the Google Play Store.
So here is the apk: http://db.tt/5otQbUIj
Requires Android 2.2 or later.
Enjoy.

So many mistakes in one sentence:
- JB on many devices? Maybe, but not a single one with an official JB update.
- Adobe hast stopped support? They have just updated it and I'm sure they will continue fixing bugs.
- They will remove it? No! It will remain in the store for supported devices (<4.1).

It may still exist (for updates) on the Google Play Store but no new downloads of Flash player from the Google Play store will be possible after August 15 however there will still be bug fixes and security updates to supported devices (Android 2.2 - Android 4.0.4) Flash player for Jelly Bean is still technically possible.
This thread is here for the future and now that the Jelly Bean source has been released I said that JB is available for many devices.

From the market:
*** NOTE: FLASH PLAYER IS NO LONGER BEING UPDATED FOR NEW DEVICE CONFIGURATIONS. FLASH PLAYER WILL NOT BE SUPPORTED ON ANY ANDROID VERSION BEYOND ANDROID 4.0.x ***
While Flash Player remains on Google Play for installation on Android devices that are certified by the manufacturer, installing Flash Player on an uncertified device may result in unexpected behavior and can potentially destabilize your device.

So the most of the current devices will be able to install Flash for a long time. Just because most people will wait for an official JB update. And that will take some time.
But of course your link will be useful for many flashers, especially in this forum.
http://blogs.adobe.com/flashplayer/2012/06/flash-player-and-android-update.html
Beginning August 15th we will use the configuration settings in the Google Play Store to limit continued access to Flash Player updates to only those devices that have Flash Player already installed. Devices that do not have Flash Player already installed are increasingly likely to be incompatible with Flash Player and will no longer be able to install it from the Google Play Store after August 15th.

This confirms that Adobe will prohibit new installs from August 15th regardless of what Android Version you are running and Android Device you have.

What is the version number of the Flash APK link you posted?
This apk still requires network communication permission. Adobe flash player does not require any special permissions to run for quite long ago, I believe this is not the latest apk.

That was Adobe, they want to move over to HTML5 for mobile. In fact flash player (for Android) is being killed altogether August 15 so it makes sense for them not to make it work on JB.
I thought they just going to remove it from the Play Store after August 15th, meaning you could still keep it backed up in Titanium Backup and just restore and use it. Will this not be the case?

Yes, you could do this, but you'd probably have to be in 4.0.4 at the latest.
I can confirm that flash still works on version 4.1.1 on the Galaxy Nexus. I assume it will be the same for the Nexus S.
Google said that flash support isnt needed on jb! The browser will fill in that part!

Hello,
if you restore Adobe flash from Titanium Backup seems to work on 4.1
adobe dropped support for mobile flash player before the galaxy nexus even launched,but they promised an update to support ICS and they did that and they said they will keep making security updates until finally removing the app from the playstore on august 15,they never said that the current flash player will not work on jelly bean,so installing the apk or restoring it from backup may and may not work.and with a linux porting kit available (as far as i know) maybe some dev will port it or maybe google will integrate it in chrome for android like firefox did for their mobile version.
i have test the port of Jb on nexus s and the flash player not working ... i try to find it from google play and isnt here ... then i install apk and no work on website .... i open site with flash and crash ... also no broswer open site with flash ...
No online tv ... no online game on website ... no miniclip ... site not view good because flash plugin needed...
Best way to get rid of the dependency on dying technology is to force everyone to stop using it
Flash ain't going anywhere period. Just a Steve jobs talking point for not allowing it on iOS.
Flash is a dying technology - still push QuickTime.
Flash not on mobile anymore but you won't see it off the net anytime soon.
But i want to see site that need flash player what i can do ?
I think this might be the case: In android 4.1, Chrome is the default browser. no unnamed android browser for Nexus 7, just chrome. And chrome doesn't support flash. that is why adobe says they won't support flash beyond 4.0.x.
BUT on the GN and nexus s, we still have the unnamed webkit browser on jb roms/ports, which were the same ones from 4.0. and it can handle flash just like it did in 4.0 since all the 4.0 api were compatible with 4.1.

Getting so close to daily drivers with the jb roms so exciting. A bit off topic, but anyone having issues with bluetooth media running? I have latest jbrom (i think) running on my ns4g and that is one issue I have run into. I can take phone calls running through my car kit but media does not work. It says it's working but it's not. I have tried anything common sense would ask of a human being. Something is definitely wrong. pm me with any responses please I dont want to clutter up this thread. Thanks in advance!!

I'm running JB 4.1 on a Nexus S 4G and I don't even see Flash Player in the GPlay Store.
Okay, well one of the biggest concerns I have with a custom ROM is that I'd lose access to Amazon Instant Video. I've read that it's impossible to get the APKs from a stock Kindle firmware and put them on a custom ROM, unless the ROM is Gingerbread based, like CM7. Unfortunately I want JB 4.1.
So what I'm asking is, does anybody know a way that it might be possible? I can understand if not.
So if it's not possible, what about Flash? If you can spoof a desktop client and then go to Amazon in your browser that works. But Flash doesn't install on Android 4.1.
I've heard Flash will install on 4.1 anyways if you sideload the APK. But I've only seen this in other devices forums. Has anyone tested and verified it works on a Kindle Fire?
Thanks!

They will not work, the apps were built for gingerbread and seeing that the stock kindle fire image is gingerbread the apps have not been updated to be compatible with 4.0 or 4.1. I miss my prime instant video app, but I do have it on my TV so i use it that way.

Just as a thought, What if someone took them from the second gen kindle fire? Thats ICS based.
Hi,
I´m on the SVHD Rom but still didn´t get the google maps v7.xx update or the new whatsapp update.
Is this only because I use a ICS Rom?
JB Roms aren´t an option due to Hitachi-panel

I was also wondering that 4.0.3 thing, but in the article about maps v 7.0 on android police, the .apk-s for 4.1 and 4.2 were included that's why I though it would be Jelly Bean only. If it's also for ICS, then, I'm happy.
