Hi all,
Dont know if anyone is still reading this forum. But i have a huge problem. I have a EU Xoom with 3G capability, MZ601 is the model number.
Now, the problem for me is that it is unrooted and i can not get apps running on it. It has 4.0.4 currently on it. I know that it is possible to get JB running on the tablet, but can not find any active links to download a build.Thanks to anyone who will respond.

Hi
I've got xoom MZ606, is it same as MZ604?
Is it ok to flash MZ604 software to it?
anyone please?
I'm also wondering about this. I'm in China now and thinking about picking up a Xoom. But I want to know if I can flash a US MZ604 ROM on the Chinese MZ606 Xoom. Has anyone tried it?
i have hmj35..i installed tiamat rom. no problem yet..
but i dont know if it matters or what region hmj35 belongs to..
Just wanted to let you know that I bought the MZ606 and flashed the US ROM on it and it's working great. No problems at all.
Hello,
Just got my hands on a Wifi Xoom mz604. I have rooted my HTC desire and am running a modified version of LeeDroid but this Xoom seems a bit more complicated. I can't find anything that specifically says it's for the AU Wifi version.
Can anyone help me?
Sorry, it's on 3.1.

Well, WiFi only Xooms have the exact same hardware, no matter their country of origin. I know there are threads (in back pages by now) for rooting the AU Xoom, but they may have referred to the 3G models. Did you check the Rooting Heaven thread in the General section?
hi, thanks for the reply. Ended up figuring it all out, now running the us 3.2 rom and have clock work recovery.
I just got an open box Xoom that seems to be a Canadian version (or at least all the updates come from a .CA address). The ICS upgrade isn't coming up as an available download. Does anyone know if it is possible to load the US ICS upgrade and if so, where to download the package?
Just a little more information... It came with Android 3.0 and got the updates to 3.2. Now when I check for updates it says there are none available. I know ICS has been released in Canada so if getting that package is a better upgrade option I'll take it. It is a Model MZ604 Wifi only if that helps.

It would be much appreciated to let the forum know what model xoom you have (like Wifi or MZ604 or wingray etc...) The different xoom models have slightly different ways of getting ICS.
Here's what I have to offer as advice. Don't take my word for it, but if you want the stock, non-rooted, official US MZ604 ICS version of android for your Canadian Xoom, you'd probably have to load the U.S. stock honeycomb images onto your xoom, and that will allow you to accept the OTA updates that eventually lead up to the latest version of android ics 4.0.4. This assumes that you have a Wifi Only xoom MZ604. By loading the U.S firmware, the xoom will pick up the ICS update intended for the U.S. Wifi Xoom
If you want to find those images: go to http://developer.motorola.com/products/software/ . You will need to sign up for an account, but the account is free and gives you the real, stock factory images for the xoom.
If you have a xoom that uses 3G/4G service, the only option that comes to mind is too root an apply a custom rom onto your xoom. Wesamothman has good guides in the Xoom General forum for doing that.
When you are at the site, look for the M
@Yosterwp,
I am thinking today to combine a general guide for all xoom types rooting and ICS ROM flash (custom). So that it would be one thread post for all xooms
And thanks for appreciating the guides...
@Newanzer, Yostewp is correct. I won't doubt his judgments / methods...

Sorry I should have included that. It's a WiFi only MZ604. I'll edit the original post with it as well. I'm kind of thinking of keeping it all stock for now instead of trying to rebuild it, so I'd like to get ICS 4.0.3 for Canada if possible.
I have been reading other forums about this issue as well. I've tried the clear framework data fix with no luck. Some are saying I need to set my date back to day of release. I may try that tonight. The OTA method seems flaky. I'm surprised they don't have a manual update download option.
Thanks for the reply.

I have the Canadian Xoom (MZ604) as well. I got tired of waiting and tried this shortly after ICS was released to the US version and it totally upgraded. It was a bit tedious to start at 3.0 again and run all the updates just to get to ICS but everything has been fine.

Sorry I can't answer your question, but I hope you can answer mine - what Xoom model do you have? I have the UK Xoom 2 ME MZ607 and can't find anything about running Jelly Bean, it's @ ICS 4.0.4.
Are you sure about yours running stock JB, and if so can you give me some more details?
hi dumpystig
Here is info on my Xoom 10.1 Early Model UK wifi
MZ604, Android Version reverted back to 4.0.4 from 4.2.2
Build Number 1.7.1-45
Kernel 2.6.39.4.00033
I had 4.2.2 running, and i put back to stock rom for sale
but that did not happen, so left at 4.0.4
I since purchased a Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1" Wifi
Hope that clears anything..

Hello guys,
I just rootet my Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 running 4.1.2 Android from AT&T model i497.
Reading through many threads here I could not find a ROM to upgrade this to Kitkat 4.4.2. Is there an upgrade?
I should also point out that I would be totally OK using any ROM as this Tablet will not use any phone line from AT&T going forward. It will be mounted on the wall for Home Automation with just Wifi. So killing the AT&T crap software and giving me simple KitKat would be totally ok.
Any help guys here?
Thanks in advance.
No luck

Doesn't look like anybody is working on this.
Let me phrase the question then differently. The I497 is from AT&T. The same or similar hardware is also provided by other phone companies or even better there are same or similar hardware versions out there without the mobile SIM card option going with simply WiFi.
Does anybody know which KitKat ROM I can install on my I497 to get it from Jellybean to KitKat even if that means I will have a Vanilla KitKat and also might loose my SIM card option? I just need WiFi on that tablet and that's it.
I am open for suggestions guys. Thanks.
I'm also wondering as well
