What is the problem with xoom? - Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

You know, i'm supposed to love all android things, i love my smartphone, but with tablets, i have an xoom that traumatized me because issues, i don't buy any other tablet because that, i don't know if it's only with me or i'm doing something wrong.
The true is that the xoom have a problem, a problem specially with the screen, i don't know, it's not lag, looks like it is but i think is not, for my knowledge on the subject it's with screen refresh frequency that it's not high, is that why you see pixelated movement of screen objects when you do a slowly fast swipe.
It's like the image of icons don't move in the same time and broke the transition, i want to know if that is a hardware issue, is that why xoom have that problem, or it's because Tegra 2 can't handle xoom? I don't want flame, i love my xoom, really but i want to resolve that problem, it's annoying me, i have an iPad 1 with single core 1ghz, xoom is dual core 1ghz with 1 gb, my iPad have 256 and you don't have that problem. Can someone help or explain that for me?
Sorry, my English, i'm Japanese.

I don't have this problem with mine, maybe your ROM is too cluttered. The info you passed is not enough to specify your problem, can you provide some more system info ?

I'm Running Stock 4.0.4 Icecream Sandwich, all stock, i already use CM10.1 and EOS 4.2.2. What i want to say is that my xoom is not fancy on transition and all xoom that i saw is that way too, i have a Galaxy SIII, i know it's a quad-core actually processor but i'm still compare, i haven't lag, it's like the transition it's not fancy, it's smooth but not fancy, it's like play video game on LCD/LED TV, LED have problems with refresh response that make HDMI Video Games not smooth, that's why i said about screen refreshs.
Also i got an Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 in my hands on Store and compared with my xoom display, i will say again, it's not lag or slight lag, it's about the things moving on the screen, you see the trail if i can call it in that way.
I will make a video to show you what i'm talking about.

Hum... But you mean only in the launcher you find the "lag"? The stock launcher has some problems, I'm running EOS 4, with Nova launcher (one screen) and my Xoom is blazing fast, it's not a Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 neither a S3, but it's working well. Try changing the launcher, installing the ROM again and changing the launcher. Mine is quite fast, however I have a friend whose isn't as fast as mine because of the settings

As i said, yeah i know, stock launcher have some lag, but it's not about lag, as an example, what a video with a lot of fast footage, if you see on xoom, on PC and on a OLED TV like i have here, TV is the best way followed by PC, but on xoom i have headache seeing fast movements, you see the trace you know, it's not like instant, as i said i will make a video.
What's your ROM?

Okay, I will wait for your video to help I understand more your problem . I'm using EOS 4 on my Xoom (MZ601)

So a long time ago, i just got my camera today! AAAAAAAAAnnnnnndddd.... here is the vídeo :silly::silly::silly::silly::silly:
It's not a review and not so long, it just show the xoom screen besides others. I advise you to watch on youtube in 720p!

You have a good pronunciation ^^.
I have an idea of how to test if it's a hardware problem. Do you have a HDMI cable? If so, try plugging on your TV and see if the trail is still there, then we can have an idea .

Oh really, really thanks, when i'm nervous i say a few words wrong (exchanging letters for anothers just like all people do when nervous) XD due to my shy profile, but really thanks, i'm doing videos in english and writing in english just to learn more and more. :victory:
So, about HDMI, yes i have it, but i need to search it, i will try to find and get that working to see, really thanks for support and your attention.
The bad news, if it is hardware, i'm lost due to the warranty period which is over hehe, but thanks again pal! :highfive:

You are using 4.2.2 from CM?

The real problem with the Xoom is that tegra 2 is one of the worst Soc's ever made ..
In Benchmarks tegra 2 is close to OMAP4430 , but in real world most of OMAP4430 run perfectly smooth while TEGRA 2 devices can't even run the launcher smooth .

I have had a combination of Custom Roms and Software that brought the Xoom to a crawl. Currently using latest CM10.1 Nightly, Overclocked with Unified Gapps. A lean amount of Software. I have to say it runs well right now. I do wipe the system fairly often. I try not to dirty flash very often.

How that you cleaned everything? I hate the /0 partition that transform my SD card into internal memory.

You said your warranty was over, did you buy it new? and experiecning this lattely only? If so, its probably not the hardware, just try out different rom, plus maybe overclock it (as warranty is over anyway)
Hardware issue in my xoom was constant reboots and hangs, so after couple of weeks (yee weeks, I thought it was due to honeycomb) I sent coom to motorola and they fixed it on warranty...
Any way - good luck!

[Q] Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 really slow ?

My new Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 is really slow :
- the apps menu is slow, looks like 15 fps or so
- crashes games like Riptide GP
- plays games like Angry Birds and Temple Run at some 20 fps
- music player list is also slow
I'll do a hard reset and flash the first custom ROM. Anyone else have the same problems ?
A hard reset will usually cure this issue, try resolving issue before rooting.

I was having the same problem with my Galaxy Tab 2 and did a hard reset. This seemed to fix everything and it is running AOK. I am going to keep it running stock for a while though, its nice and smooth now and I want to wait till there is a really good reason for me to root it. Not to mention I am still waiting on them to get the ROMs a little more fine tuned.
I am on the tab 2 7inch, and mine is not slow. I think it has the same internals as 10"
I'm running the sgrant "clean rom" v 1.1 and Apex launcher and it's smooth as butter, not to mention I got rid of the bloatware.

I've moved to Infected ROM - better, but for gaming, it's the same. Can anyone confirm that they can run popular low-medium quality games like Angry Birds and Temple Run smoothly (60 fps) on a GT-P5113 ?
Mine is really slow too It's really not like the Ipad
It's more more slower than an Ipad but I use just to read comics and go on the internet.
I now run latest CM9 with OC kernel, but some older games like Drag Racing are still practically unplayable. Does anyone here have a good experience with this title especially ?
I had the same issue with my new Tab 2 10.1, which manifested itself after only a couple of days.
A bit of digging on the forums stated that it could be a rogue app that was installed, however I was unable to diagnose the offending app.
Perplexed and slightly annoyed I decided to install CM9 and have not looked back.

I think it should because of the GPU & CPU speed of galaxy tab. As we know p5100 using an powervr GPU. NVIDIA Tegra should be better than powervr. But if you want to increase the speed of your tab try to use custom ROM and OC. Or you can sell your tab and buy a new lower price tab like Transformer, Motorola Xoom, or Sony S tablet which powered by Tegra GPU that could run the graphics smoothly :fingers-crossed:
Yep, I already have it on a local free e-bay-like site.

When I install cleanrom 1.1 on my GT-P5113 after following all root procedures, it stucks at boot screen showing samsung galaxy tab 2
And it never progresses beyond that screen. Do you have any suggestions?

I think cleanrom was only built for the tab 2 7.0". If so, it will not work on the tab 2 10inch.
Hopefully you installed a custom recovery like clockwork mod when rooting.
You will need to manually boot into stock recovery and then select recovery again from their. I believe its power and volume down, then vol down to navigate and vol up to select.
Once in your custom recovery (clockworkmod) you will need to wipe data and cache and restore a back up you have made of stock or install a ROM from sdcard. The ROM needs to be specifically made for your device.

Try flashing the original cleanrom 1.0 version first and see how that goes , if its good make a nandroid in cwm, then do the update to 1.1 version. I only ran the 1.0 version for a while, now I'm back on the infected rom, it runs a bit smoother and the Wi-Fi always comes back on after long sleeps.

THis tab is fast, but like any tab or PC you can screw it up if you really try.

Sorry for bumping a thread, but not that tegra crap again. Tegra 2 is barely any faster than the powervr released in 2007 used in the tab 2. Tegra 2 is a crap chip in itself released in 2010-2011 with nvidias marketing gimmick of optimising the hell out of games for invidia, running it at a lower than native res, bumping the graphics high while paying developers to lower graphics for other chipsets and reverse optimise it.
Tegra 2 can't even play high profile 480ps smoothly while powervr sgx 540 + neon can do so at 1080p.

Suck @ss, douche. Go troll somewhere else. If you weren't such an idiot you can mod a Tab so it makes an ipad the irrelevant p.o.s that it is. Thank god you went to Crapple so I wouldn't have to deal with a d-bag like yourself on these forums.

Need for speed Most wanted

Any one has any new on this game?
Works like a charm on my sgs2 and my atrix4g.... the only reason i bought a tablet in the first place
was to play the games, watch movies and surf the web on a bigger screen.... and it seems i cant...
running cleanrom 2.3 and clemsyns latest kernel..
if only the nice apps and games would be worth using on this device...
Maybe theres a hack or something to lower the resolution or lower the graphics? tried with the data files from my sgs2 which is 200mb less..
I also bought this game and only able to play it on my Evo 4G LTE for now. Hoping it will be compatible once the Nexus 10 comes out. EA and Gameloft have both said that they will add support for it with most of their games.
Gaming is also a big reason for me to have a tablet. Sucks that most games aren't compatible with the Infinity just because the Infinity has a high resolution display!!

I don't know why people can't play this game on the tf700 with cleanrom, I played it fine, no lag, stutter, just smooth and responsive. What kind of issue you have with this game?? I can see that people with stock rom may have issue because stock rom is so differnet from device to device, but not when you on Cleanrom and Clemsyn kernel and data2sd(this maybe the issue with you guys?? )
EDIT: Can some one with the Cleanrom+clemsynkernel+data2sd try out this game? Maybe data2sd makes a different???

It's incompatible with Infinity in the Google Play - that's what they were trying to say.
I have One X also with Tegra 3, gonna try and use the APK with internal data from it to try on my Infinity...
It's so laggy on Infinity compared to NEXUS 7.
FPS seems about 20-40, unstable.
With CleanROM2.3 n stock kernel.

Well the game seems to be running in slow motion.... this is cleanrom 2.3 with clemsyns kernel no data2sd as i do not have a class 10 card
Will try with cleanrom 2.4 later today...
can you tell me what size the apk you have working is? as there are 2 different files..
as i understand the htx one x running tegra 3 has the same problems together with a stock nexus 7 hmm? take a look on the other device forums.
What good is a great full hd display when nothing can run on it i would personally never buy a nexus 10 with that extreme resolution...
I believe it is going to have a hard time running anything other than pacman hate too show the device to an apple fan
ps: my screen is beggining to pop out should i get a replacement? it makes wierd noises when pressing on the screen.... sadly i unlocked it so idk if i have a chance to get a replacement
Yeah I am very disappointed with the number of apps that aren't available on the TF700. I can't even use the Xbox Smartglass app.

I can confirm it works fine on the tf700t
Use at your own risk I take no responsibility if it doesn't work... But... This works great for me.. Love the game now.. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1845993
There's a difference between "Not compatible in Play Store" and "Not compatible with the device". That difference lies in developers being too stupid and/or lazy to add the TF700 to the list. Most don't want change the game's textures to run on a higher resolution so they don't bother.
I've yet to find a game that won't work using alternate methods of acquisition.
I'm on stock and NFS runs fine. I do, however, turn off all other random bloatware and crap that runs in the background, set the process limit to 4 and run in performance mode. Who the hell leaves the browser open while playing a Game in full screen, anyway?
Or maybe I'm just not seeing the lag, as all games on my pc run at 20fps these days. (FU companies, I don't have the money to buy a new vidcard every month just because you lot are too lazy to add video-options when you port from the console.)
WOW Thanks alot using the 1.3ghz mode allmost flawless with cleanrom 2.4 and stock kernel.... bet clemsyns would fix the rest..

Hey just to let you know, after the 1.3ghz you tried,try the manual method by installing the apk there in that manual method post,change the value of nfsmw_scaler to 1.5ghz,Run game(it will be slow as earlier).Close it.Install the automatic patch(again).remove the nfsmw_scaler file.Now try running the game,u would have reflections(on the car now) with no difference in frame rate as earlier.It looks great with no performance hit.Your mileage may vary.Also I don't think balanced, performance modes makes a difference in ingame performance.On the contrary,I was playing the game in performance mode,when it showed low battery warning and power saver kicked.It went to balance mode..And I might be mistaken here,but my frame rate increased a bit. Quite a bit..Anyway happy to run this game.
Thx again works flawless with full detail in 1. 5ghz mode. You dont need the nexus7version though the scaler is running smooth here with fulldetails in battery saver mode

[Q] Looking for a bit of genuine honesty

I've got a rooted P5110 running the latest Clockwork Recovery and Cyanogen Mod 10.1 and by few apps. I'm running this rom in an attempt to get the Tab2 to be smooth and glitch free. No matter what rom I try I get some level of stuttering and glitchyness even on very mild use such as simple browsing with a couple of tabs open. I've grown tired of trying every possible rom to solve this so I've come to thinking that it is just not possible, no matter what Rom is used, to get the Tab 2 buttery smooth (like an iPad).
My question is to those really up to speed on Roms/Kernels/Modding and it is whether it is genuinely possible (Android/Apple rivalry aside) to make the Tab 2 super-glitch-free like an iPad? I.e. is the Tab2 stuttering a hardware/spec issue that simply can't be overcome by ultra-clever programming or modding?
I'd appreciate honesty on this because I can still (reluctantly) send the Tab 2 back and get an iPad in its place. I don't want to do this but I cannot live with its stuttering anymore but will stick with it if it's easily and genuinely fixable.
Android is a different beast, the software is written for a few hundred devices, where as ipad apps are written for three devices...you well never get that with android, that said I guess I'm not as picky as you because I feel that cm10.1 is smooth with stock or black hawk kernel..

Totally get this but my Android phone (Motorola RAZR I) doesn't stutter at all, no matter what I throw at it. It's got a faster processor (Intel chip) but still it shows that Android doesn't need to stutter. As I understand it the Asus Transformer Prime tablet doesn't stutter at all (but does have other issues) so this brings me back to thinking that the Tab 2 is simply well and unforgivably under spec'ed.
If you want a solid functioning tablet for basic usage without the need for modifications, the ipad is probably best to meet your requirements.

If you really hate lag, there are a few things you can do.
1. If you use SwiftKey, don't. It produces a fair bit of lag when typing.
2. Don't use a live wallpaper.
3. Use a custom homescreen like Nova Launcher.
4. Use Chrome.

The main reason is because apple has loads more years of experience when it comes to software! But also the bloatware that samsung installed doesnt help, ios hibernates the operating sistem when u play a game for example! So all of the ram and cpu power goes towards the game! Where as android the game runs on the top of android. Also there are no home screen of widgets less animations! Should I go on? Honestly android will never run like ios!! Android may get better but so will apple so android will always be behind! Thats why the iphone can run games lag free etc and also why the iphone 5 has less cores and that then the s3 or s4! Everyone says wow look at my s3 4 cores your iphoen 5 only has 2 mine is better! That is wrong! Iphone 5 doesnt need 4 cores! Or 2 gb of ram... etc. So yeah If you don't like lag buy a really expensive device like the note 2 or just buy an ipad!
I hope there were no errors it that!
Press thanks if I helped!

About the screen not true imo, but about the heat part, yes it heats like a mofo when in full speed mode. When in battery saving mode it caps the cpu frequency to 1.0 and almost no heat, when its not 1.8 and heats like an oven.
How about the battery?

As they promised it would behave.
I'm still looking for this tablet in a retail store so that I can check it out in person. Can't seem to find anyone else selling it besides Best Buy (online only) and a few third party vendors on Amazon.
To me, Toshiba excite pro is between all tables the best!

Well, these are my impressions:
The screen is very good
The bluetooth keyboard stand is incredibly good design. Never seen better. This magnet stuff is nicely flexible and stable as well. does work well having it on the lap like a netbook.
The performance with the stock ROM is incredibly BAD. I've got frequent lags, especially in the browser, but also when waking the device and sometimes without an apperant cause. And the most incredible thing is that this device is supposed to work on a 1.8GHz quad core - how is such a bad performance possible with such a monster processor?!

for me its the fastest Tablet i have ever seen. it gets warm...yes. But thats probably because it is really fast. I had an transformer prime before and this is considerably faster. (I use the aosp browser). display is sharp and crisp. not as good as my htc one but also really good.
Problems:
1. WLAN Connection is unstable (there is an Update but currently only in the us)
2. Sometimes it just wont respond to anything. Hard Restart is the only solution. (same here update should be available)
3. Root would be nice
4. would be great if some skilled user would take a deeper look...
I having excite pro almost week and did not found any fault so far.
WiFi work spotless and reconnect in matter of second (from standby or from deep sleep)
10" Screen whit light sensor is one the best on market for me.
Battery life is pretty good(five to six hours watching movies from single charge) and sound one the best I heard on tablet.
Some apps don't work well like opera browser (crashing all times) but Firefox works fine.
Abbot heat I not playing games on it but watching movies,you tube and browsing internet, no heat whats so ever (not using battery saving mode because browsing can be glitchy).
Not latest android installed on it but jelly bean 4.2.1 is pretty good and Toshiba did nice touch with apps winch almost all can be disabled inducing Toshiba one.
It looks interesting, I didn't know about them. Maybe I will look for further information.
Is there a user forum anywhere for this device?
Picked one up like so many others from Amazon for £170 knowing there would be no root option but satisfied to use it primarily for media playback.
Ive tried a couple of media files on it since arrival this morning and playback on some is a little stuttery using the Tosh's own media player and BSPLAYER. Can anyone recommend one capable of playing AVI with AC3 / MKV and x264 please.
Thanks
Just ordered one. ...
Hope its as good as u guys make out! !

Also have u done firmware update? 4.3 update?
I was on 4.3 got bsplayer working properly in the end but had a look at mx as well and that seemed ok too. Thanks for the reply and sorry for the delay getting back.

No worries.
My only major problem is the sound which is on the quiet side.
I'm hoping someone has a fix for that.

Will have to check my version but Bsplayer volume goes up to 200% when using my finger on the screen where using the volume rocker it only goes up to 70%.
Would be nice to have somewhere us excite pro users could call our own.
If we did I would be able to ask questions like
1 - Is Angry Birds Go crashing for anybody else?
2 - What launchers is everyone using?
3 - What browser is everyone using as chrome seems a little clunky?
1 is now fixed following recent upgrade
This is an excellent device for the cost excellent. ..
Except sound. It's just not loud enough. Sound is excellent just not loud enough
I too have one, love it but the lack of root is frustrating. However, I have discovered that most of the updated Google apps can be sideloaded. This morning I updated the stock email Client to the one that ships with KitKat and it works flawlessly with the new exchange services. Going to look at seeing if anything else can be taken across.
Ran quadrant on my rooted Asus Memo pad and the Tosh and the Tosh scored double and more. The only area it is weaker in is 3d graphics which does surprise me.

Just ordered this exact tablet and am also wondering the same thing. I hope someone has some dev experience with this tablet.

I ordered this exact tablet last week and it just came in the mail. It's an impressive piece of hardware with very little bloatware out of the box, but Jellybean takes up a lot of RAM by default (1/2 is being used just by the thing being turned on). I'd like to figure out the best method to root it at least, though my ideal goal is to put a ROM of an earlier release of the Android OS on it, I'm quite partial to Gingerbread to be entirely honest since it tends to use a lot less RAM and CPU power to run on similar hardware I've used before.
EDIT: Hopefully someone with actual experience can look into rooting this tablet, I tried using some typical "generic Android tablet root" techniques and nothing is working.
How to root Hannspree Quad Core 10.1" Model SN1AT71BUE
Hi. Could anyone tell me how to root Hannspree Quad Core 10.1" Model SN1AT71BUE ? I just bought it for several days. There is something wrong for restart after I installed some Apps from Google play and play some of them to change the default settings. Better provide me with ROM of this tablet, My email is [email protected]. Thanks! Jeff
I got kinda suckered into buying one of you too. They were so cheap so I figured why not. My main complaints are that the operating system seems to be the part that's making it so laggy. When it's actually performing a task it works fairly well. I use NHL GameCenter and for the life of me I can't figure out how to get the streaming for work. SwiftKey keyboard is really laggy and unusable entirely. Also, Chrome seems to be impossible to use because of the lag. Other than that though everything else seems to run fairly smooth so I think it's more of an operating system issue than power issue. The battery is good it sounds good the screen is OK touch screen works...but if I can't use chrome or watch NHL games,I might have to return it.

Tablet seems to perform fairly well in games but is laggy at times on web surfing. As the previous poster noted Chrome is almost unusable it is so laggy. Video apps seem to perform well after they load up. If an item is being downloaded in the background tablet is very laggy. I tend to agree with the previous poster that the main problem is the operating system. Maybe an update to 4.3 will come soon and improve performance.

Yeah I noticed the background downloading slowing it to a crawl. I think that's an issue with the kernel or memory read speed. There are some tweaks that we will be able to do once a working recovery is available that will fix that. Network speed too. I speed checked it and im getting 35mbs so the issue isn't the WiFi unit itself, its just software. I'm hoping somebody will make a nice custom ROM for us

If you want to restore it to factory settings you can do that in the current recovery.

Hi, I have the hannspree 10.1, its OK if you limit your apps which shouldn't be the case considering the spec, does anyone know how to root, would really appreciate any help, thanks
You should read the rest of the thread

hansspree 10.1
nothing out yet...it's just the os on it that sucks...just upgraded to 4.2.2 and it even slower...once theres a rom it will eliminate all the bloat in it...just hold on to it and wait...you will not get a quad core for that price...
Its a really terrible a5 based quad-core.. A dual core a9 would run circles around it. There isn't really any bloat in the rom, they didn't do much of anything to it. No custom rom is gonna upgrade the cpu or craptastic generic gpu. If you can return it, go do that. If you can't, I'm sorry, but it's never going to respond like an a9. It sucks that actions is full of lies, and Hannspree bought them, and retailers don't care what they are selling you.

After the update to 4.2.2, this thing is horrid slow. I had high hopes for this tablet. Now I'm kind regretting it. Until a better ROM is built with a custom kernel we are screwed.

I agree 100%, 4.2. Update is worse than original. Try downloading CPU tuner and pimp my ROM from play store it will help, until custom ROM is built.

Appears to have had memory issues. In process of RMA.

So I just found out that the UK variant is running KitKat. If some can find anyone in the UK that can pull the rom for it, we can get this running much better than it currently is.
Can anyone point me into a direction where I could find the operation system and how to install
