Has or is anyone thinking of trying to get it on our beloved tablet? Just curious.
Need twrp and kernel. Twrp 2711 supports it, need flar2 to update elementalX, that's it I think. Oh and convert ROM, app on play or windows tool.

The Xoom thanks to the developers had 4.4.4 on it before the Nexus 7 2013 LTE. Almost but not quite dead yet. You can hear to Xoom sy "I'm not dead yet."

Sorry meant to mention I have a 3G Xoom. Does that update work for 3G or only WiFi Xooms?
Sent from my Xoom using xda premium
Quoted from posted thread:
IMPORTANT NOTE: This update is for the US Xoom Wi-Fi MZ604 with Android 3.1 ONLY!!! As of v05 of this update, the update script performs NO CHECKS of files before flashing rooted stock 3.2 system and boot images. This means it won't stop you from flashing on a Xoom 3G; it will just flash and you're left with the mess, if any. Please proceed only if you're tech-savvy with Android and the Xoom, ready to restore to stock 3.1 in case of issues, and good at troubleshooting. Please provide feedback and corrections, and I'll update the post as quickly as I can. Thanks!

Why not just flash one of the Tiamat 3.2 Roms? Easy way to get the best of all possible worlds, since you're already rooted.

I really hope so, as I'm avidly google searching every day to see if it has been announced for getting Kit Kat! There are 2 reasons I believe we should get 4.4;
1. Google owns Motorola now
2. The A2 meets the minimum required 512 RAM that is needed to run 4.4 :thumbup:
All I can say is keep your fingers crossed and hope we don't get the galaxy nexus treatment.

Highly unlikely. Google is not releasing kitkat for the Galaxy Nexus which is based on TI OMAP architecture, so the odds of the Atrix 2 ever seeing a stable build are very slim.
Plus hashcode is no longer supporting any OMAP based Moto phones https://plus.google.com/111109372727398356624/posts/MywYxxxzJaD

Naa no chance of an official OTA for 4.4 but the Atrix HD might get the update according to At&T........

Yep, that's true and as for the custom ROMs, altered mention he'd try to build SlimKat soon and the Razr guys just got CM 11 alpha. :thumbup:
Either way, we're extremely blessed to have such awesome devs keeping our OMAP devices up to date with the latest Android releases! Thank you all! :thumbup:

Hi...
It is said that Android 4.4 is optimized to work (again) with 512MB of RAM...
Anybody knows if 4.4 is being ported as a Motorola Xoom custom rom?
4.2 is a bit slow in my xoom, my only hope is that 4.4 fixes that, or I will be force to return to 4.0.4 or 4.1, or replace my tablet by a Nexus (and I think that my xoom deserves some extra life, it's just 2 years old!!!).
Thanks.
PS: Reviewing the development subforum I can only see about 4.3, I'm worried that our xoom was abandoned and that my only option would be switching to a Nexus

Its being worked on. It involves repartioning your Xoom and they have a 4.3 running snappy on the new partitions also. Check around the boards a lot of very good reading, research and development still going on for the Xoom. Only way I'm parting with my stingray is if it dies or I do. . and by the way I'm running 4.2.2 right now on mine with larger partitions and its fast and stable.

Hi.
Thanks for answering ...
After a quick look to that link, It seems they're working with Android 4.3... do you mean that's the last version we'll ever get, or maybe after 4.3 they'll go for 4.4? :?
There still working on it. But now there experimenting because once they got over the partition hurdle now they have some serious kernel issues to work on among other things. So as of yet there isnt a 4.4 running on a Xoom yet. There are some very talented driven people working on it so keep your eyes open the Xoom is not dead yet and never will be to people like myself.

Well you can try that and provide feedback for the dev especially if yours is wingray since the kitkat development is based on Xoom wifi version. At least the repartition part brings you some difference. The ElementalX kernel is also great to try

I am not a specialist but ART is Android Run Time which is a new virtual machine attempt to replace Dalvik. The main difference with ART is that app are compile during installation instead of use. I can't say exactly if it is very quicker on the Xoom but I activate it and it works perfectly.

Why don't you give it a shot? It's more valid than just asking, no offense. 'Faster' is adjective and AFAIK all adjectives are subjective. People might think it is faster, or not if that matters, but you really need to try for yourself to see if it is fast enough for you. Schischu has finished building Kitkat Omnirom for all versions of Xoom though
test
It is true than the best way is to try it. But I can say than this ROM on my Xoom is not laggy. Some I test before were!. So don't worry,follow step by step to repartition and flash and enjoy it!

Not at all, in fact it's not compatible with flashing any rom after ICS, else you're sure to soft-brick. It's much older and unmaintained so it's virtually the last recovery we'd need for anything new.
Aside from that, I haven't done much about Safestrap since the last time. I've had a pretty busy week this week, and lately have been attending other matters so no sense in being impatient.

What about converting RAZR new safestrap to atrix 2? We could then flash rsdlite back to stock, install new safestrap, and port a 5.0 rom and flash? Suppose its obviously not that simple but an idea since 5.0 roms dont seem to work with bmm

I'm working on it, could be interesting if we can use this kernel on our device

since infuse has 2.6 kernel and required a lot of changes to make lollipop
I am unsure about specs but you might visit the Samsung Galaxy player 4.0 and 5.0 forums, they are at least same gen devices and I saw lollipop is built on it.

Lollipop is a ram eater. I tried it on the razrm and it didn't go well. Wound up reverting to kitkat. I'm sorry but at some point even if you can, you shouldn't and I think all devs are realizing this.

I think people should just run the latest that's available, or get a new phone. A Moto E is 3 times the phone the Infuse is, and can be had for $30 if you buy it at the right time. Plus it runs Lollipop out of the box. Methinks trying to run 5.0 on a 4 yr old device is near impossible.
