This was a while back but I wanted to install Tiamat's rom on my wifi xoom. well they had instructions on how to do it even though they only had a 3g rom out. so I basically had to install the 3g software on here. how do I change it back to wifi software? I completely lost the instructions
At this time I would recommend just moving to the wifi Team EOS ICS rom. No reason really to stick with HC anymore. The ICS roms are great.
Hi, all.
So I unlocked my HTC Status, installed CWM, and installed SuperDroid rom.
Everything worked OK, but now it's stuck in EU format. Now, instead of E for edge or 3G for 3G, it says R for roam (along with a popup about being in roaming), an H for...home? and occasionally shows an E which I'm guessing is edge. No 3G displays.
While everything else works, what worries me is the constant switch into roaming. I'd like to reinstall the stock ROM, but all the stock ROMs I find are for euro / asian versions.
Has anyone in the US with the Status experienced the same problems, and maybe has any ideas I can try? Or does anyone have a stock ROM I can boot back into?
Thanks.
H is for HSPDA - High Speed Packet Data Access.
I'm having the exact same problem with my Status, and any googling/searching directs me right to this thread. Has anybody else had this problem, and if they remedied it, could they please share it? Thanks.
All the roms I have found all use the Asia or EU base roms. I reverted back to the updated stock rom.

I have the Huawei E220 3G USB dongle and I read that a Revolver rom or Prime rom have more things (HSDPA driver...) built in to support a 3G dongle.
What is the latest rom that supports those 3G dongle's, can anyone post a link please as there are so much roms, and [3G] isn't always mentionned in the titles.
The latest one I found was a Revolver from April but we are August now, maybe there are newer ones meanwhile.
Do I need to install something extra on the tablet in order to recognise the 3G dongle then, maybe a 3G toggler.
How can you get into bootloader mode again, I forgot, I tried volume up + power off but only a black screen, not the android robot.
At the moment I work with ww-9.2.1.11-CWM-full-rooted rom
Thanks!

only megatron rom supports 3g dongle. search for it.
Thanks, I found the Megatron 1.1.6 is this the latest now that supports my Huawei E220 ?
The latest "Jellybean CyanogenMod 10 ♦ B5" seems nice but 3G doesn't work yet is stated and I don't know if it supports my Huawei.
Yesterday I searched the whole evening to flash this rom, but I have big trouble in clockworkmod recovery
When I select to install a zip from SDCARD it says that it didn't find the SD card, but today suddenly it works?!
Does the Huawei work directly when the rom is flashed when connecting via usb, or do I have to do some other actions first?
I also would like to know where I can download the Clockwork Touch recovery for free + how to install it.
I downloaded a rar file which contains .IMG file but I have no clue how to install this....

no jellybean rom supports 3g dongle for now, so you are stuck with megatron for now. as for cwm, search for cwm 6 by rayman and flash the zip file in your recovery.

Is that true? I read around alot (for about some weeks now - and I had read a lot even before I got
my 3G-Stick) and actually there are some roms pretending to be able to support 3G.
Till now (and still want to) I used Revolver 4.1.1 and was pretty happy. Fast, reliable, no boots no nothing. Just
totally perfect for me.
Only disadvantage: No 3G. Even though there is a 3G enabler... which doesn't work at all. Well... it enables
"Mobile Settings" but manual search doesnt work, neighter the automatic one. Same with APN-Settings. So
what exactly is the point to get mobile settings, if they wont work anyway in the first place? Don't get it.
Am I doing something wrong?
I tried Megatron... but its Honeycomb, no? :/ Suxx. Lags on performance on many edges and also I don't like
the UI / Homescreen / Keyboard Layout and I'm not much into customizing. Also I jsut like the ASUS Style.
I'm kinda certain, that there will be problems (didn't try yet, coz the Backup is about 3GB) if I'd try to restore my Revolver 4.1.1 backup on it.
So I abandonned it again pretty fast (Even though 3G worked as a charm :/ ). Isn't there possibility to get Revolver to run
with my Huawei 161? Well I'm not a pro but I somehow can't imagin, why it should be so hard to get Revolver to work with
3G if even a Honeycomb Rom can?
I would have tried Prime 2.1 Vanilla... but all DL-Links I found are broken. The old Prime is way too outdated for my personal
demands to an up-to-date-rom.
Thanks, Pete

Your question is an interesting one, Innovator.
My official Asus ROM does not recognizes any operator network (even when unlocking that menu using "3GToggler" apk), but PPP Widget still does succeed. So I think that PPP Widget will probably work with that Cyanogen ROM (a great ROM, at my opinion) and you will have 3G data. Attending to its results, PPP Widget seems to include drivers, connection DLLs and so on; it is a great program, I will soon donate to the author.
Could you, please, post the results if you do test it? I wanna know what happens.

For sure it does work OK, Traithudo!
I have PPP Widget right now with CyanoGenMOD 10 v6 in my SL101 Slider. I use a Huawei USB 3G modem, and I can navigate (even SSH, VNC... etc) without a problem.
Speed (acording to tests) is fantastic, but I have only tested it in a low populated area (you know: mobile internet slowdowns when there are many users nearby... or so I think).

I can confirm that PPP Widget on a TF101 stock ROM (I'm currently on .27) supports 3g dongles - my specific dongle is a ZTE MF190, but you might want to have a look at the PPP Widget home page and the support forum to ensure you purchase one that is known to work. I can't post links at the moment, but I'm sure you can add 'www' to the beginning for yourself.

Have been using PPP Widget on my TF101 Revolver 4.0.3 - 4.2.1 With Huawai E161 - Flawless.
Worked great. Has some issues while reconnecting and stuff, but still the most easiest and best working solution.
The widget actually kinda annoyes while changing the desktops. Produces lags etc while initilizing.
I just ordered a recertified Verizon 3G Xoom, and I didn't think about the implications of it being a Verizon device. This is NOT upgraded to 4G LTE -- will the "Stingray" builds of the various ROMS still work? Is there any way to apply WIFI-only ROMS (including stock) if I don't care about the 3G working? Given the age of the device I really want to get Jelly Bean on it.
I will need to cancel this order ASAP if the answers to these questions turn out to be "no"...
Same question from me.
Can we install the WiFi only version of ROMs (CM9 in particular) onto a Verizon 3G Xoom and have it work for everything EXCEPT the 3g? I could honestly care less about ever activating it on Verizonas long as WIFI works.

From reading a bit in the Development sub-forum, it looks like there's a JB leak for the VZW version, and either version (WIFI Only or VZW) of the EOS 3 ROM should work. I think I will keep my order.

Any luck? I also have a Xoom 3G MZ600 on the way and could careless about 3G...
hasnt eos got jellybean roms for all versions of the xoom? 3g should work imo
Sent from my Xoom using XDA Premium App
I'm in the same boat and curious to see if anybody has any words of wisdom. I love my refurbed Xoom 3G but am eager to get JB on it. Any help is greatly appreciated.
FWIW everything I have heard/read seems to indicate that it is possible to flash WiFi only ROMs on the 3G Xoom, and apparently everything will work fine except for the 3G (naturally). I haven't taken the plunge yet myself, still running stock ICS.
Is there any word on whether the Verizon 3G Xoom will get Jelly Bean?
It can be done....
I purchased a used 3g Xoom around Apr 2012. After initially unlocking / rooting and installing a ROM (EOS) on my 3g Xoom, the 3G radio wasn't working so I started fresh. I locked the device and SBF'd the original Xoom firmware, then used the official over the air (OTA) upgrades to get back to stock ICS. I thought this might fix the 3g issue; it did nothing.
EOS Roms overclock the GPU by default, which caused problems with my (and my wife's Wifi version) Xoom. My only requirements for a ROM are stability, no clutter from dumb carrier installed applications, compatibility, and of course root access. I found a pre-rooted stock Jellybean rom, but it was for the Wifi Xoom. It worked great on my wife's though; and heard rumors that it could work with mine.
*SO*...I took a leap of faith and installed it. It works great. No 3g radio of course, but I gave up on trying to get that to work anyway...so if you don't care about losing your 3g , this will probably work for you. I don't think my 3g will ever work, but I suspect this won't ruin yours if it is currently working. Don't hold me to that; this is a risk.
Random notes and refresher info:
-you will need an SD card. I'm pretty sure the following instructions will only work if you use one.
-If at any point you get the android guy with an orange exclamation point during boot...it is probably ok, just let it sit there for a couple minutes. it should continue to boot into whatever ROM you are currently on. Make sure you enable usb debugging in settings after boot.
-to access RSD, Recovery, or Fastboot mode, press and hold your power button to start the Xoom booting. When you see the Motorola logo, wait a second then press the volume down button. Then you can use volume down again to cycle through your options, and use volume up to choose one.
-the exact differences between RSD / Fastboot and Recovery modes are beyond the scope of this post (and me) so just know that your Xoom can be modified using software on your PC via USB with RSD and Fastboot modes, and stock recovery can be replaced with modified versions to add more functionality. Recovery is used to do all sorts of things...flash Roms, mount drives, format, cleanup caches, etc.
***
General instructions. Just guidelines; you will probably need some previous experience with computers / rooting etc.
(If you are already unlocked, rooted, and have a replacement recovery, skip to the last step.)
1.) Follow this guide to prep your Xoom: (unlocking, rooting, and install CWM recovery)
http://www.xoomforums.com/forum/motorola-xoom-development/15179-how-rookie-rooting-flashing-unrooting-under-one-roof.html
Note: you may have heard of Lord AOI tool; it is supposedly designed to simply the above process. I found it didn't work well and was more difficult to use than good ol' adb commands. I recommend skipping it.
2.) OPTIONAL: Next, I recommend using the latest Rogue recovery. Just use standard CWM recovery to flash it. It is nice because it allows you to use the touchscreen to manipulate instead of having to use the hardware buttons (volume buttons are kind of a pain). See here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1235170
3.) Finally, flash the pre-rooted stock Jellybean ROM. See here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1796335
(here's the direct ROM link for those not needing instructions or extra info: http://www.mediafire.com/?7w5w65l66hgggo8 )
Good luck and let us know your results...
Hi,
I recently decided to flash a jeallybean ROM since most of them are getting really great and we don't have any word on the official update. Unfortunatly, I'm now unable to get a data connection on my HOX. It's the rogers version which I unlocked and I'm now using on the Bell network. Before flashing, LTE worked fine with the stock sense ROM, but now I don't have any data at all.
ROMs I've tried :
AOKP, MIUI and CM10.
I've tried to : set the data connection to GSM only, nothing, to LTE only, nothing, to WCDMA only, nothing. I've tried all the APNs I've found (pda.bell.ca, pda2.bell.ca, inet.bell.ca). On AOKP it sometimes said "Error while searching for network". WiFi, texts and calls work fine.
If anyone could help me, it would be really appreaciated. Otherwise I'll just revert to Rogers ROM. Thanks alot!
I cant offer any help, but I'm having a similar issue recently. I was on a nightly build of CM10 (from 10/06/12 I believe). I upgraded to a newer build (from 10/10) and I get no data over cell. I flashed it back and things were fine.

Before flashing jelly bean roms you need to flash a sense rom then do full wipe and install cm10 or aokp..

Every device has its own nuances, as do various ROMs. So I'd advise posting this in the forum specific to your device.
Still no data connection.
I am having the same issue with my AT&T One X phone.
The phone was running 2.20 before it was unlocked/rooted. Installed TWRP, was a noob and forgot to save a backup, fastbooted the boot.img, flashed AOKP and CM10 successfully. With both of these ROMs, I could not get internet to work via cellular connection. I have tried everything with the APNs (even had AT&T help me setup APN settings) and still no mobile data connection. I can still receive/send SMS/calls, use bluetooth and wifi, just no mobile internet.
I'm not entirely sure what to do next. I attempted to go back and flash the UrDroid 4.1 Stock Sense ROM, but after fastbooting it's boot.img and attempting to flash with TWRP, I got a signature verification failure. Got scared and restored back to AOKP (I remember to make a backup this time.)
Thoughts? Sorry for being a noob.

I am in a "4G" area (HSPA+) but I am also a hour drive away from LTE. I have tried APNs for both, but AT&T recommended I stick to the LTE APN. AT&T had me go to Settings->More->Mobile Networks->Network Operators and the phone just sat there searching without finding anything. I just did that above operation again and it found AT&T and I selected it. It spins on "Registering on AT&T..." for a few minutes and eventually errors out "Cannot register on this network at this time."
Have you tried switching off LTE by selecting "GSM/WCDMA Auto" in Settings?
I've had data problems on certain ROMs, where turning off LTE got the HSPA+ connection working.
In that case, it was probably a base of build.prop not playing well with AT&T's network. Although I would think the ROMs you mentioned would have these issues worked out at this point (and for some time now).

When I switch to "GSM/WCDMA Auto", it immediately switches itself back to the LTE setting. This is concerning.
