[XOOM 2/XYBOARD] [Q] ROM Compatibility - Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So given that Safestrap exists for this device, I've been researching just what it takes to port something like CyanogenMod over to a new device. I'm a long term user of Safestrap back in my Droid 3 / Droid 4 days and can confirm it is reliable and does exactly as claimed...
Now, we all know that the Xoom and the Xoom 2 are almost exactly the same hardware. Is there any particular reason that a Safestrap'd device couldn't have a Xoom ROM installed in a ROM-Slot?
I noticed that Hashcode took down the links to Safestrap 3.12 for the Xoom 2, however it is still available and if it works as it should (I haven't tested it yet due to not having any ROMs to test it with), does anybody know of any particular reason why a similar-spec (Wifi+3G for example) Xoom ROM would not be compatible with a Xoom 2?

Np xoom(tegra) rom will be compatible with a xyboard or xoom2(omap4). They have completely different chips inside. If the xoom 2 users are lucky, they'd get a ported rom out of xyboard 4.1.2 official from community.

Ahh my bad, I derped on that one. I missed the chipset change when comparing specs... d'oh. There's plenty of work on other OMAP4 devices from Motorola, although the amount of effort it would take to make software from a phone like the Droid 4 work on a Xoom 2 would be incredible. Though it would be worth it.

I haven't researched it fully myself but i hear the the Droid Razr XT910 shares a lot of hardware with the Xoom2/XYBoard. If someone was to attempt a port i imagine that would be the place to start.

[Q] [ZOOM 2] What ROMs work with MZ616?

I just got a Xoom 2 MZ616 (WiFi & 3G) and I'm wondering what ROMs are compatible.
I'm going to root using Dan Rosenburg's method, hopefully that works.
I'm looking at trying either ICS 2.0.0 by Team EOS or ICS 4.0.4 AOKP, but I don't understand whether I need a Wingray, Stingray, _cdma or _everest build. Can someone please help?
Nothing will work.
You can root your xoom 2 but it's bootloader is still locked.
So you CANNOT install any roms.
no recovery for xyboard and xoom 2
I also have a xoom 2 and this is kind of disappointing, not to mention the fact that it shipped with honeycomb.
Brand new device, fresh out of the oven with a deprecated os. Nice move Motorola.
Guess will have to wait it out 'till Motorola ships ICS for xoom 2 in never-ever-land.
Unfortunately I think from now on I would by devices that already have soaked into the market and have development... Sad to say but we can't rely on manufacturers

Yeah as they all said, custom ROM's or custom recoveries do not work at all. Maybe one day in the future when Motorola decides to be nice and unlock the bootloader. But for now hang in there with Motorola Honeycomb as its not all that bad.

It's not all that good either lol...although mine is more bearable now I'm using ADW launcher.
As for the bootloader, there's plenty of debate/shouting/general aggression towards Motorola on the Motorola Xoom 2 forums...surely they can't ignore all these complaints? I'm sure that's what happened with the Experia X10 back in the day.
IG =]
I wish I'd researched this before buying. I just took it for granted that I'd be able to root and flash a custom ROM.
Ah well, live and learn and all that I'm very happy with it as-is (rooted w/ADW Launcher) but I eagerly await ICS in some form or other.
What about us who bought the xoom2 through a carrier are we now not only waiting for Motorola to hurry with our ICS but also for the carriers to add their crap too?

I complained to Motorola about their **** service to customers, I was close to buying the Galaxy 10.1 and wished I had, the Xoom 2 is pretty crap always crashes and should be on 4.0.2 at least..... I'll never buy a motorola product again, they were **** 5 years ago and they are still **** now.

My unit was updated last november to version 4.0.4.
So far, so good.
But seems that there won't be anymore updates from Motorola to Xoom2/Xyboard tablets.

I second lkrasner. Any leak could potentially be beneficial, and we won't know until we check.
http://115.com/file/c25msn57#fastbo...273930-release-keys-ChinaRetail-CN-chn.tar.gz (hit the green button to download, it will be pretty slow)
It's an fxz (how they find these things I have no clue). Don't even think about flashing it though. If the international MB865 ICS leaks haven't helped us then I don't think this will be of any help either :\
So, since I'm essentially clueless on the actual coding and development aspects of this type of stuff - I'm no stranger to flashing ROMs and testing them out, been doing that for almost a decade now and still doing it between several devices (Axim X50v/X51v, HP iPAQs, Nexus S, Galaxy S, and now my Atrix 2) - but I don't understand what the actual problem is with this ROM with respect to the AT&T model of the Atrix 2.
I'm going to guess there's something going on with the Chinese/international leaked ROMs that will completely bork/hose/obliterate the AT&T model if I or anyone else attempts to install it, perhaps even permanently bricking it so...
Obviously I'm not about to try it myself, I'll leave that to the more talented folks around here already working on trying to get ICS for all of us. The Atrix 2 is such a damned nice device from the hardware perspective, and yes I'd love to get ICS on it (I know Motorola is working on it but as usual they're so tight-lipped about everything we're never going to know when it'll be available until it actually is, Cheesecake or not...), and now with having messed around with Jelly Bean on the Nexus S for a few hours - wasn't great but it was noticeably "butter" smooth as they're claiming - that gives me very high hopes that ICS will make an appearance on the Atrix 2 soon.
Come on, Motorola, if you can't get talented people to get this done, there's a bunch of people here on XDA that would do it practically for free just to get it done once and for all (not saying they wouldn't like to be compensated, obviously, maybe a free Droid RAZR MAXX or whatever for their efforts).
Yah, I know, Motorola could care less about this phone already, it's such a shame that this "disposable society" is what it is. Hell, I still use my Dell Axim X51v almost daily, and it's close to 7+ years old now, still running a custom Windows Mobile 6.5 from LennySH... I don't believe hardware is "useless" until the moment it actually doesn't work anymore, at all, totally hopelessly bricked or dead.
I'm impatient and I know it, so are most of you reading this.
If I thought a petition would help Motorola just skip ICS completely and jump right to Jelly Bean for the Atrix 2 I'd start one, but obviously that's just a waste of time. Sad we'll most likely never see Jelly Bean on the Atrix 2 officially 'cause it most certainly is a device that could manage it (minus a few aspects like NFC and whatever).
Bleh... just rambling, sorry. But I really would like to get some kind of basis for why the Chinese leaked ROMs are a no-no on the AT&T model, if anyone can spare a few minutes to explain, and be as thorough as you like as I'm all about details.
Thanks...

The ME865 (the Chinese version of the atrix2), has different hardware in it. There are also 3 slightly different versions of the MB865 (also the atrix2)... confused yet....
What it means is that the if you own a US AT&T version, you can not flash any of the international versions of the firmware, because there are slight hardware differences in all of the versions, and the AT&T US version has a whole different radio on top of the different wifi, gps, and GSM/GPRS/UMTA&S chipsets.
Well, that pretty much covers it.
I really do love this device, it's got an awesome form factor, feels fantastic in the hand, same screen size (diagonal) as my beloved HTC HD2 which I don't have anymore (but yes I'll get another one someday just 'cause it's the baddest portable device ever made for enthusiasts). Great cameras, there's really nothing to dislike about it so far, at least to me. Still on the lookout for a Lapdock as well (if my research has been accurate, I can use the original Atrix Lapdock with the Atrix 2 and a small mod of flipping the connectors on the Lapdock around - I hope I'm correct in that).
But ICS would definitely be nice to get, and soon. It's just a shame that Motorola Mobility is so far behind the curve with things. I had hoped that Google's acquisition of them might improve the situation but, with Google's announcement they were buying but leaving them alone to keep on doing what they've been doing, that basically nipped that hope right in the bud.
Anyway, thanks for the answer.

[Q] Cyanogenmod Question

Noob questions:
Can someone explain to me what it is? I heard about it for the longest time, but never cared enough to check into it. Is it just a super popular ROM? Do they have it for several phone models?
Before I got the Razr HD I had the droid X and droid X2, I was super into ROMs and all that crap. I would like to mess around with roms on the HD, their still aren't any out yet though right? I think CM10 is the most recent Cyanogenmod version, will this be available for the HD? Why is CM so popular?
Thanks for the info!

Start here: http://www.cyanogenmod.org/ There are very alpha roms available for both the XT925 and XT926 Razr HD already. Check the Development forum for details. Cyanogen is available for a ton of different phones, and have a lot of talented programmers giving up their free time to adopt to different hardware.

Why so many models combined in one forum?

Sorry for this noobish question, I've really only had an Incredible, a Rezound, and a B&N Nook Color, so this kind of fracture within a device was quite a surprise, and really made me a bit paranoid in making sure I had the right instructions for my device, the right recovery, and a ROM that would support my features (like the IR). Maybe this is more common than I'm aware of (like the GSM version of the Rezound, of which there's like 2 threads in the entire Rezound forum for, unlike the major fracturing here).
As someone who just bought this device on Boxing Day, I had no idea there was a P3100, P3110, P3113, SCH-i705... and apparently other models, until I came looking for a Jelly Bean update.
It would have been a lot easier for me to find that out, and get root instructions, a recovery, kernel, ROM, etc for my device had the dev forums been broken out accordingly. It's got to be harder on devs too making ROMs that work only for 3110, for instance, and people claiming bugs with the ROM when they have a different device.
So, I'm a bit curious since the kernels don't appear to work across models and they have different features, how come the forums aren't broken out? Was this a conscious decision? (Like assumptions that a single kernel would support all 4+ models?)
Good to see you over here as well quantum rabbit. I have seen you around the rezound forums, and the nook forums. I had the same problems as you when I first came here a week or two ago. Apparently, the only difference between all of these tab 2s is minor hardware. The p3100=cell radio, p3110=WiFi international, and the p3113=U.S. version. The p3110 is almost identical to the p3113 version, and most ROMs, and kernels work between the two.(at least that is my understanding) There are a couple of threads about this here already, and you are not alone in your thinking. If you need anything, give me a shout, we have been in the same forums since I got my Dinc. If you upgrade to the UK version of the JB ota, and then root, and install clockworkmod, you can maintain the it blaster, or jump into cm10.1. Any who, it is good to see you here:thumbup:

Good to see you, too. I also noticed Scott is here for the SCH device (Verizon LTE one) and recognized him from the Rez.
I did find the difference thread earlier... thank god for acefsw here: [Q] Differences between models. So I get that the 3110 vs the 3113 is nearly identical, but apparently the p3100 and the SCHi705 are different from the 3113 enough such that all the kernels I find appear to be for the 4G enabled tabs (SCH models), like DoubleShot, Decaf, Scott's etc. (I also see CM9 and 10 kernels). For all I know, they'd work on my device, or they'd work but I'd lose features. I am unsure, yet.
On the Inc, there were single kernels that worked across Froyo, GB, and ICS... on the Rezound, seems like each android version and CM of each android version all have different kernels. Here, unless I'm misunderstanding it appears to be like the Rezound, only that there are also 2 or 3 or 4 hardware variants I may have to worry about to. Which really complicates the situation.
Here's how I see it.
All the P3xxx tabs are nearly identical.
The SCH-I705 is COMPLETELY different from the rest. The I705 is closest relative is the SCH-I535 (VZW GS3). If you or anyone else flashes a I705 kernel/rom/etc on a P3xxx, it will brick. Mount points are completely different, hardware is completely different. Why it's still mixed together with the P3xxx tabs is still a wonder. Though, there aren't many people with the I705 except for a couple of us.

So seems like for Recoveries in particular, the SCH to P31XX is a definitive no go... that helps. Does that mean the 3100, 3110, and 3113 can all use the same recoveries at least, and maybe kernels and such?
I don't plan to play around too much, for now I'm on CWM 6.0.2.3 (May try for TWRP later) and kwbr Espresso, which I saw numerous posts of people on 3113 and how it works great including IR Blaster.

Anyone know if any custom rom's are coming?

Can't believe there is nothing for this tablet. It's a freaking awesome tablet. Anyone hear anything?

Well they are still working on getting a custom recovery to work properly (at least on the 7.0) so custom roms are a good ways away. I would not expect to see much in the way of custom roms for the 7.0 until around Christmas time.

That's what I was thinking, other similar devices have custom rom's. I don't mind the stock rom right now but having cyanogen or paranoid would be awesome.
Anyhow, hope to see news come December or in the new year.
Yeah, the tablet is very good, but I heard that because this tab 7.0 uses Marvell hardware, not Qualcomm like 8.0 and 10.1, building custom recoveries and ROMs is not an easy task to do. Even the root method (vRoot) is not 100% working, so I'm staying with stock, non rooted for now.
The same was with Tab 3 7.0 (also Marvell hardware, but older chip), but it eventualy got properly working recovery and CM11. But that happened half a year after it was released...
I'm looking forward to using this tab in the same way I use my S3 (Rooted OMNI with lots of customizations), but we have to be patient.
Not to hijack a thread but I'm assuming these devices have unlocked boot loaders. Why is injecting root into an Odin file a harder thing than it was on the tab 2?

Just out of curiosity, I have one question that I have to ask. Why do you all want custom ROMs for this tablet? The stock rom on the Tab 4 8.0 model is very slick in my opinion. If the tablet is working fine for you, why mess it up with a custom ROM? I'm speaking from personal experience here. I upgraded from a Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 7" model this past Saturday (for my birthday) and I used to mess with the custom ROMs all of the time on the Tab 2 but here's what I found after trying them out for a little while. A lot of the custom ROMs did not meet my needs as well as the stock ROM did. I have royally messed up tablets doing this and had to do a factory reset to get the tablet out of its funk. The last time I flashed a ROM, one good thing did come out of it. I realized how nice KitKat was on the tablet and made me want to upgrade my tablet to one that already had that OS already installed on it.
That's just my two cents worth on this. Take it for what it's worth.

Also just because you have the 8" version doesn't mean we all do. I would also love a custom rom.
Sorry I even asked! I just decided to ask and give my opinion which is based on my own personal experience. I didn't expect that it would ruffle some feathers. I had 7" tablets until just one week ago.. I've never had great luck with custom ROMs personally because I always felt that there was always something missing when I was using them. When I would flash the tablet back to stock, that feeling went away for me. Now that's just my personal experience. Please don't get all upset because I dared to express my opinion here. I thought that this may help someone who is on the fence about using custom ROMs on their tablet. These are just confessions from a former custom ROM flashaholic.

Sorry I even asked! I just decided to ask and give my opinion which is based on my own personal experience. I didn't expect that it would ruffle some feathers. I had 7" tablets until just one week ago.. I've never had great luck with custom ROMs personally because I always felt that there was always something missing when I was using them. When I would flash the tablet back to stock, that feeling went away for me. Now that's just my personal experience. Please don't get all upset because I dared to express my opinion here. I thought that this may help someone who is on the fence about using custom ROMs on their tablet. These are just confessions from a former custom ROM flashaholic.

Don't worry bro, its just you're not the type of person who sees the potential of this tab. Regardless, you have the right to opinion, but not everyone has the to agree with your opinion. Its your choice, I am not telling you what to do, but that just my opinion.

I'm a lady 404. I take offense that you say that I'm just not the type of person who sees the potential of this tab. I've just learned from personal experience to be make the best out of what I'm given. Multiple times of messing up my tablets and bringing them back to life have taught me that. Also, I'm one of those people who tries to take lemons and make lemonade. I'm not saying that everyone has to agree with my opinion but don't be mean about the reason why you disagree with me.
