Help with official update and clockwork mod - Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi There!
A few months ago I've installed clockworkmod 3.2.0.0, in a failed attempt to upgrade my MZ604 UK Xoom to ICS from 3.2.
I forgot about this device for a while. Today I received the OTA update for ICS. But after downloading, and when it rebooted, it entered into the recovery of clockworkmod.
I really don't know what to do. I tried to just reboot and think that it would bypass, but after starting it shuts down into recovery. Tried to shutdown, same problem
I now have a device that only reboots
Could someone help me how to apply the google official update?

flash stock xoom images and then waite for ics update

[Q] Stock recovery methods

Hello, I have a problem with my transformer. I had installed CWM and Asus Revolution HD ROM. It worked fine, but today I wanted to return to stock configuration.
For that I followed theunlockr method to unroot and remove CWM. It worked, although it is no the original Asus recovery image my tablet had, and the Android that was loaded is 3.0.1 ROM 8.2.3.13.
This rom works fine but I can't get any OTA updates and if I try to update from microSD is fails - System update failed (12)
I can't even root to adb push the updated blob. I have tried all the methods I know (nachoroot, gingerbreakBB) nvflash doesn't work - USB write failed.
Any ideas how to get to latest Asus firmware? Please help. than you.
Try this

[Q] How to flash a stock rom on tablet with bootloop

Really new to this, I just got my tablet about a week ago. I've rooted, though when I tried to install CWM it went into a bootloop. I let it charge over night and when I woke up it was back to normal (yay). This morning I decided to have another go at CWM so I tried a factory reset however it went back into a bootloop. I tried searching for how to flash a stock rom but no avail as to a clear step by step process, however I've found the stock rom though its just an update.zip, I dont really know how to use it with odin. Could somone explain to me where to go from here?
give this a try...
Can you at least boot into download mode?
If you can then you will be able to flash the Samsung official firmware using Odin. Here is a link to help you out.

That will show you how to install the official jelly bean update.
After you hopefully get jelly bean installed you can root the tablet using the CF-Autoroot exploit. Here is a link to help you out with that

Okay...now if that does not work look into flashing CyanogenMod 10.1 nightly this will update you to android 4.2 the newest jelly bean update and you get to keep your tablet rooted. You can find out how to do that here on this forum or by a simple Google search. I use it and its great!
Hope it helps...

Phone not getting updated

My friend has t-mobile htc one s and it is rooted and clockwork mod recovery. Today he got an official 4.1.1 jellybean update and he downloaded it. After selecting install now the phone reboots but the update doesn't get installed. Does he has to unroot his phone so as to install the official update. Some time the phone goes into recovery and the red triangle appears.
Any help would be appreciated.
Needs to put back on the original recovery for the version software that you're friend has.

[Q] Trying to install 4.4

Brand new to this tablet. So I had the stock 4.2.1 software and I wanted to try out the CM11 4.4 rom. I flashed that but recieved a fail on TWRP. I was hoping that flashing CWM would fix it but no dice. I want to go back to stock but I have no access to fastboot and it bootloops into CWM. any help with this?
Ok I have managed to recover the tablet to boot using this tutorial http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=44244313#post44244313 :laugh: Now, how do I install 4.4? Whenever I tried to install it using TWRP 2.6, it always fails on me.

[Q] Getting nowhere trying to flash lollipop :(

Hi,
I wonder if anyone could offer me a little assistance please ? I have a UK Tesco Moto G 16GB (2013) that I have successfully unlocked the bootloader and rooted and CWM recovery installed. Currently, it's running 4.4.4 Kitkat. I gave up with the OTA update as I was getting the 'preflash validation failed' message. More recently, I have tried following the guide on here to flash the XT1032_GPE_5.1_Optimized_v1.1.zip file using CWM. However, this resulted in what I believe is termed a bootloop - i.e. the coloured dots animation just never stopped - I waited half an hour and it was still going.
I've managed to restore it back to my previous 4.4.4 for the moment, but I would like to move to Lollipop at some point - if I could !
Could someone suggest a method I could try please ?
Many thanks !
Kev.
Hi there.
Well, my device is a XT1032 Retail US but I may have been through the problems you're facing right now.
Here we go:
Go full stock (don't know if you revocer from a backup or already did this but in any case you'd know what to do: This guide helped me a lot. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2542219.
Do not install any official update using a custom recovery
Make sure you got the actual latest recovery version. If you went stock from the latest firmware you should have already got it.
If you have your OTA, Install it manually from the stock recovery
This method should work. It is the one I followed.
I got two errors: 1st was because was using custom recovery.
2nd was because my rom was stock but had deleted system apps, so the install failed always at some point.
Once I flashed the latest stock firmware including the stock recovery, I was able to install my OTA update.
Let me know if this works.
