Xoom development - Xoom General

I bought a Motorola xoom cause it seemed full of potential but there does,nt seem to be much in the way of custom development for this device, anyone else noticed it seems to be a little slow compared to other devices,

While I love a good discussion, I.thought it might be helpful for you to read and digest this very recent thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1230867
If you have something to add after reading this one, why not add to the original thread, which will put it back on the front page.

devs have been awfully quite

I think sommthing big is coming. It's been a week since anything big even roms! Im confident in this community and yesterday there was an unlocked boitloader topic that was removes because it gave to.much info. How often does that happen. I didn't get t read through all of it because once I was done with page one it said it no longer existed. Im super excited let's rejoice

I been jizzed changed and rejizzed again. I think the reason with the holding back of info is for the bounty. Hopefully im right and that's why and im.not wrong and notta damn thing going on

One of the reasons it has been quite is because there is an update soon. Kind of pointless to make a rom (or new version of an existing one), and have to redo it again to make it work with the new update.
Also that topic was deleted because the op was posting an IM convo that the developer didn't want being made public. It didn't really prove anything conclusive.
It also doesn't help that devs have to make a bunch of worthless posts like this one so we can reply our post in the dev area.
I have info for 2 different threads in there, but since I'm too new, I can't respond. Eventually, I'll get the minimum junk post quota done, and can tell them what the nvflash method described will and will not do. Till then, I'll just keep playing around silently...
Your right but even after the Op deleted the convo the whole.thread was removed. Im just saying a hint of optimistic outlooking

There is nothing wrong with optimism, I agree; however, until there is an actual way we have to be careful because they don't want moto finding out and then quickly fixing it.
The real risk is moto blocking methods we use to gain root, or to back flash to an older SBF...

Have you tried talking to the devs on irc? They're still hard at work just not posting on the dev section because it all gets jumbled and messy
thats just my 2 cents

drock212 is correct, the devs are hating the dev subforum at the moment because of all the useless posts and information. If you jump on IRC and STAY QUIET UNLESS YOU HAVE SOMETHING USEFUL TO SAY you learn a lot about whats going on, as well as learn some new things about how your phone works. That's what I've been doing for the past few weeks and it's helped a lot.

Am I dumb why hasn't anyone mentioned 3.2 allows

You to use the SD card finally? Can't transfer apps to it but it reads all the information on it.

In the future you might notice as you are actually typing the subject out it will auto-guess other topics that are similar to yours. Additionally, you might spend more than 5 seconds looking at the general section
also if it helps there's a bug thread here http://code.google.com/p/android/is...rd&colspec=ID Type Status Owner Summary Stars for sdcard issues being read only etc.

It doesn't auto-guess when I'm on my xoom. Thanks for the undertoned criticism.

The main thing it's done for mine is just made it far smoother and less lag ridden. Couldn't really give a crap about new features, it's just better at what it was already good at.

Can we have a sub menu in Dev ROM section for individual version

Instead of having all ROMS, Kernels, Themes clubbed together in on section can we have submenus in dev section so that we can chose what we want and/or what version (ie ec05,eh06,eh17 etc)
thanks
That would be awesome.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
Way to specific I would think to create this though and it would require a mod making a new sub menu for every release and leak ect.
But I agree it would be awesome!

Not to mention after (if?) official GB gets here, none of the other ones will matter, probably not even the official Froyo roms.
It wouldn't pay off again until some superhero got ICS running and people started spinning that off.
Either way the real solution to this isn't subforums, IMO, it would be some sort of category/tags system. Some way the [EH17] and whatnot on the beginning of the link was something more automated and official than something the dev just typed there. Clicking [EH17] would show all the posts tagged EH17.
Wiki isn't enough because its not comprehensive either with all the roms and themes and kernels.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
that would be a lot of extra coding work. One thing that would help is a 'Releases' section though - I'm really tired of people starting 'interest check' threads for their new ROM that they didn't even start yet, not to mention having the crap threads nestled right in there with the nice hot releases.
The wiki doesn't even load for me on my phone or computer, no idea why.
I support this idea though
That would be great

Why is there no development for the thrive??

Seems to me the thrive is one of the 2 clear winners among android tablets. So what gives? Does the thrive have STD's or is there something I'm missing? Full size ports, replaceable battery. I mean the thrive is all that android represents. I want to buy one but I can't pull the trigger until I find out why there are zero dev's on this devive.
Thanks

Check out TabletRoms.com and ThriveForums.org.
There's a new Thrive model shipping later this year. According to Engadget a dual core at 1.5 mhz - not quad core but I wouldn't be surprised if they bump it up to quad.
Perhaps that's why?

How do you still have a xda account. And why do I want to go to some substandard forum. I'm just buying a Asus prime.

Don't be crackpot, we are here to learn, not read your whining. This section for the thrive, and not happy with it or want something else
go to that forum. I love my thrive, price, $299, full size ports, and great developers, can't ask for more.
Sent from my Thrive, rooted and looking for more.
There are developers working with the Thrive. They just aren't on this forum because it doesn't pay any attention to the device. We have custom roms and overclocking and we've developed workarounds for some of the known issues/shortcomings. Why you would call it substandard is beyond me...just sounds like someone speaking from ignorance.

You know it is people like you on this forum that has made me move on to a different forum for all my development. I am a long time member of XDA, but just got tired of how a lot of people flamed individuals for asking questions. We are supposed to be here to help out. Although I even get tired of answering the same questions over and over, I will still help an individual and at a minimum, point them to the answer. Then I will let them know that reading and searching goes a long way. That is the way it should work. Being told that that has been aswered 100 times already does no one any good. So, like you have been told, if you do not like the Thrive, then more power to you. Go get the Asus Prime and go bother them.

Unless you have actually looked and read the forum and checked out what has been done I would say that you are nothing but a simple minded troll that needs to be ignored!!!! Maybe you should get a ipad it seem it would fit you perfect!!!
I swear, I don't understand it. All this rooting, then all the post's about what doesn't work right, after rooting. Maybe the reason there's not too much development for the Thrive, is because it doesn't need any? I like my Thrive bone stock, with the latest upload. It works fine, no problems, no complaints. I also have a Dell Streak also bone stock. Now flame away boys...............
You are correct. I do like being rooted, but I stick with a fully stock ROM that is rooted. That is also the ROMs I offer.

[GUIDE] Flash genuine and working ICS with CWM and Root on ALL TF101

EDIT:
Post Removed. I can't be arsed dealing with idiots.
nice guide but i believe this should be moved to general
I'm thinking now there is nothing here that wouldn't work on ANY version of TF101, including SBK-V2 models.
Thoughts anyone? Anyone brave enough to try?
I will try this now on a B60. Tks for the tips
EDIT: Done it. Worked perfect!
it might be a stupid question, but how do i flash an image?
Edit: i thought that i would download an img file, but now everything works great, thanks

Rooted my tf101 earlier from another thread and now installed cwm very easily because of this thread. Thank you.

Everything is running very nicely here after 2 days, and no reboots and none of the problems reported in other threads.

Works!!!!! I tested in my tf101 b8okas.

At this point, the only thing that seperates a B60 and below vs b70 and above is the ablility to nvflash. B60 and above can nvflash because of having sbk 1. Good info though.

Yep I was initially being over cautious, I didn't want to be responsible for problems on sbkv2 systems as I had no way to test.
Have updated the first post to indicate its suitable far all TF101, now it's been tested on a B8O

I'm able to get the ICS upgrade to install, however when it reboots I get the Asus logo and a circular progress bar that never stops.
Hi.
I have a asus tf101 b70-s/n and it won't allow me to access the microsd from the recovery screen in cwm. It says unable to mount sdcard and won't format it either. I have tried other cards and same error. I have used sdcard formating program and I have tried commands in terminal. My version of the tablet reads an interior sdcard, which is not recognized in cwm. So this is obviously a huge problem if I'm to perform the factory condition flash.
I've been trying for days, different methods. Any help in the right direction would be nice. Thanks.

Your post WAS very informative and to the point. I think it was wrong that you removed it. Maybe you should reconsider...
Come on... that guy does not belong here. If you do not help people, do not post here.
MOD Please delete thread. OP deleted original Post that made thread worthwhile. Apparently he did not feel like playing nice and took his ball and went home.
Ugh. When are people going to grow the hell up around here?
Both parties are wrong. OP is childish for removing helpful post ( not sure entirely how helpful since it's gone!) And those who talk ish to someone trying to be helpful. Wtf guys?
