[REVIEW][ROM]Team Tiamat Xoom Rom 1.0 “Welcome to Win!” - Xoom General

I've done my best at a review, and here's the result. Also here's a link to the site in case you want higher res screenshots or see any of my other work. LINK
The Motorola XOOM, it's the original Honeycomb tablet and, to me, still the best. But that's a discussion for another day. Today I'll be giving the first ROM for the Xoom a thorough walk-through. It's Team Tiamat's Xoom ROM 1.0, some of the features include Tiamat's kernel version 1.4.4 with the cpu clocked at a staggering 1.7Ghz, Desktop UA string and CRT Screen Off Animations.
First off since Google hasn't released Honeycomb's code (yet?) you won't see anything too extreme in this ROM outside of the overclock, which if you missed it before is at a whopping 1.7Ghz per core, (and there's two of them...lol). As far as the installion goes it's pretty straight forward you can head over to XDA for the full instructions. But all you have to do is make sure you're rooted, unlocked and have CWM installed, you can then grab all the necessary files and flash as you would any other ROM.

One feature included in this ROM that I love is the battery percentage in the notification bar, which you can see in the screenshot above. (By the way shout out to Fahrbot Mobile for making Screenshot ER which is the app I use to take all of the screenshots you see here) For those not familiar with Tiamat's kernel I want you to know that it does more than just turn your Xoom into a speed demon. It also adds SD card support, no thanks to guys at Moto, the ability to overclock the GPU, USB tethering and USB mass storage mode. The ROM also supports themes, like the one I have (BigDX Xoom|Zoom Theme).
Outside of the changes I mentioned above the ROM is pretty straightforward, it doesn't add too many additional apps only Quickboot, Estrongs File Explorer, and the Flash Player that allows you to watch Hulu. Other than that it's completely deodexed, zip aligned and adds the cool CRT Screen Off Animation thats found on the Nexus S. The Desktop UA string mod which allows you to see full sites instead of mobile in the stock browser and lastly it's got USB Mass Storage enabled so you can plug USB flash drives into your Xoom.
Now I want to give you my personal opinion on a few things about this ROM, one is that the battery life is phenomenal. I didn't think the Xoom's battery life could get any better but alas it did and I couldn't be happier. I also love how fast and smooth it is, BRD has taken a good thing and made it even better, launching apps and swiping from screen to screen is near instant. All in all, if you've got Honeycomb v3.1 installed on your Xoom this is the ROM to try, it's fast, has rock solid stability and excellent battery life. Team Tiamat's Xoom ROM has some great features included and makes an already stellar device that much better.
K guys that's my review, any feedback is appreciated. Also if you have any questions about the ROM feel free to ask and I'll try to answer for you guys.

Excellent review. Thank you for posting this!

Sorry man, can't answer that question. Gotta ask the devs.

So is Tiamat xoom 1.4.4 a different ROM? How come you have focussed on 1.0?
Sounds very tempting anyway.

No, there's only one ROM right now. What you're looking at is the kernel. And that Kernel is included in the ROM.

Does any one know if there is a built in ad blocker in tiamat. I am on tiamat 1.1 and i am trying to enable ads due to an old issue with medscape and updates that are unsuccessful due to adblockers.
I stopped and force closed every ad block program , stopped their super user access and i still cant get ads again on my xoom .
Thank you in advance

This should of been posted as a question in the Q&A section, or on the rom thread but I'm going to answer you question anyway.
No, the rom doesn't contain any ad blockers.

Well if your going for straight performance i would suggest trying an oc kernel over my rom because i have had awsome results as far as speed. i cant guarentee you the same results as few are able to but i was able to run 1.4ghz on my rom with -75mv across the board all day long i was getting around 19 and 20 linpack. hope that gives you some ideas.
Will def give this one a try!

Flash addict so i will check it out
may change my mind on things i got suckerpunch and serendipity if that puts it in focus pun intended
any reason that you took the link down?? i started downloading a bit ago and i saw that you took the link down about 1 min after i started the download. i think that this rom is just what my captivate needs i need about 1 hr more battery life than what im getting now. cant wait till my battery is fully charged.
i noticed 2 small things and it was not signed. it will be up in a min
Good luck with your ROM, I know I've learned a ton in such a short amount of time.

Me too +1 here, its super fast, faster than ipad2 , and has whole lot of fun features now hope to see a stable version to play all the games
Here's mine just as a point of comparison. I'm running Thor's v96.
I have the face lock settings. But i am NOT using it. I set it up the flashed the acer ring. I like the lock screen ring over the face lock.. I hardly ever lock my tablet. I Think for the most part ics is great. the browsers are much lacking CHROME Will often end up dead at a black screen with more then a few tabs open with text tearing. Stock browers has artifacts and some tearing with the same text issues as chrome.. I think the issue is that acer does not have hardware acceleration tweaked correctly. if at all for applications. it seems the browsers are lagging not the os. as in the past it seemed to me it was android.

Hey Erica, I swear that I remember reading somewhere that Chrome and ICS are not the best of friends. Google is working on making their browser more ICS friendly but it's not there yet.

You are both correct. it only works. WELL KINDA WORKS.. do not get me wrong ITS MAD FAST Compared to stock honeycomb browser. But for me it seems to give me a black screen just at the MOST WRONG TIME EVER. GRRRRRRR. yes frustrating. The stock browser in my opinion is more stable then chrome.but this is from 2-3 days using ICS. it could change.
Thanks guys.

Good words for the thread! I am aware of Androids operating techniques. I am looking for the rom that from boot runs on the least ram. With no apps going except required apps. Thus leaving more RAM for all of your other desires We are well aware(most) that we have a dual core tegra 2 tab with limitations since tegra 3 is about to drop into stores everywhere... we still have a powerful device and anyway I can free up some space from the start, I will take I like minimalist roms... as well as fully loaded. ICS is proving to be troublesome for random people and I want to be one of the ones that says, "Oh... no SOD here. Just smooooooth butter."

This is totally true . The screen shot i provided was Right after flashing the rom NO Email accounts set up. or nothing.
Android Os lets things sit in memory but sorta static it shows them taking up valuable ram.This allows them to use less cpu cycles to wake up PREVENTING Ram and cpu spikes. Thus using less resources and battery consumption. Yes i nknow techie guys this is not totally exact explanation but its a quick and easy one.With the basic concept.
I will add the above is the reason why task managers that Auto kill aggressively will fight with the android built in memory management. Thou they are good for trouble shooting apps that are rogue.
Sorry if this turned off topic just my screen shot being a fresh install was not totally accurate now im averaging 301 to 320s and it looks to be the average .

Interesting knowledge.
I'm probably not alone in watching this thread with interest...I'm looking forward to ICS, while admittedly happy with 3.2.1. I'm looking less at memory use than I am at stability; since moving to the almost-stock-yet-rooted Honeycomb, I've had close to zero problems I didn't create for myself.
For me, changing ROMs (I often wonder how the OS image got the nickname ROM, which means read-only and implies flashing to EEPROM to old guys like me) is something of a PITA, since there's much about stock Android I rip out by the roots (including Market, BTW, so everything on my tablet is sideloaded), which makes me want to do it once and get to the most stable. So for those of you brave enough to leap into ICS before us, keep posting those reports!
250MB used
I'm on stock ICS AV041_A500_019
I currently am running Icylicious 4.0.3, works awesome. Really a lot faster then before, I was starting to get frustrated with the lag in between pages... but it's better now! Love the rom, nothing's really wrong with it. Fixed dhcp drop as well as a weird problem I was having with my headphone jack when I'd plug my headphones in (had honeyvillain kernel before.) But yeah works great now! No face-unlock that I could find, but didn't really want it anyway.
Here's mine.

This thread is aimed at letting users of JCarrz1 FROZN & KRAKD rom(s) have a place to chat about the roms openly and share ideas for the dev to consider (although the chef is the chef and have respect for his work).
Please refrain from using the devs thread for general stuff and use this one instead.
Please try not to ask help questions although they are better here than in the devs thread.
No ideas put forward need be considered by the dev.......its something to do until and after release though.
Contributing doesnt always mean money or coding - get your thinking cap on, use your skills, and help other users - just some basic ways you can make a difference.
Disclaimer - flashing roms can lead to tablets going to heaven and this thread is not to promote such actions so if you do decide to use any roms including Frozn or Krakd then you are solely responsible for any muss ups.
*** Always full wipe and follow any guides to the letter *** lol​
Thanks for reading and look forward to future chats
If Jcarrz wishes this thread to be closed i will respect his wishes

It would be cool if you could implement customizable navigation buttons.
Like in the various ICS ROMs for the Galaxy Nexus.

And another nice thing would be conrnerstones.

UK Dock Keyboard Function Keys
Fantastic Rom , amazing results with speed and battery, have put back a couple of Apps and they work well.
My only problem is the top row of keys
working
mute, vol up/down, start/stop, forward track/back track, settings, internet
not working
screen shot, auto brightness, brightness up/down, mouse pad lock, bluetooth key ,wifi key.
Anyone else have this problem or know how to map those keys, all other keys are correct, tried full wipe with keyboard off and on, even replaced apk with one from Revolver but no difference....
Still a Fantastic Rom though well done need a donation bucket .....
Yeah stock keyboard would be good

Root/SU Problem
I have no root rights in this ROM.
Many apps say no root, but I have allowed SU.
Give it a solution for it?
I get the ROOT of ADB and mempodroid, but Android is not fully rooted.
e.g. Root Explorer, AndroZip Root and so on
EDIT:
find a Solution for it.....
1. Install Titanium and Busybox Installer
2. Start Titanium and then run BusyBox Installer on Titanium
3. the BB Installer becomes Root and now you can install Busybox
4. Root works
I've now used CM9, FROZN, and CNA...I love FROZN I just want the full dock support that CNA offers. Please please pleeeease add it! O
If you had the chance to have 1 thing baked into the rom as standard what would it be?......
For my use id like to have dsp or miui music player (yup its 2 but i said or lol)
To help the dev itd be cool to have a live bug report feature, example - a simple 1 touch toggle on the notification bar that could instantly send a report directly to the dev.
Or like logcat but with auto capture of the fail only.

dsp on tf to me its always felt like a phone feature and ive always wanted voodoo to bring out a tablet version
miui music player?? ive used both of them and saw no awesome features or a uniform layout and i think miui is way over rated and a very personal choice stick with Google music but don't bake in miui parts (just saying for people like me it would be deleted and replaced by poweramp or similar in 2 seconds)
I think for now its a couple simple things that should be baked in like asus keyboard etc
Although i love the last idea sort of like statistics gatherer on cm9 right?

My Initial Thoughts
Well I'm extremely annoyed - I was promised a few bugs (OP) and there are none! Drat! I wiped everything within an inch of it's life, then flashed the ROM followed by inverted gapps. I have not had one force close, no burps, no screen flicker, nada, nothing bad in 6 hours of heavy running.
This ROM is as smooth as , well, teflon - easily the equal of any CM10 I have tried. I noted with pleasure the toggles and particularly the "put the screen to sleep toggle" (I like to save mechanical switches whenever possible) and I can never understand why other devs don't include this very simple toggle.
Truth is, I will be using this as my DD on my GTP3113 - I'm not sure that any significant improvement is warranted.
Thanks much to hjkr and the original dev for this great piece of work.

The camera is borked - I think this true for CM10 generally (no way to exit app) so I d/l'd Camera JB+ and will use that. Only issue so far.

camera's working fine for me
This rom is really nice. I flashed the inverted gapps and after several hours of steady use I haven't even had a stutter. Kangorade was the very first rom I flashed on this tab and this is the only one I've used since with this many features. Amazing job guys. Best alpha ever...

Only major issue I had when I first flashed it was, Superuser was having problems allowing permissions and it froze up once or twice and had to do a hard reboot.But it seems to have settled in now and is playing nice. Froze up a few times initially when using some apps as well Maybe it was a bad flash from AOKP ? who knows ....
Really Impressed with it so far , nice to mess about with and customise that little bit more than you can with AOKP. Pretty cool you can edit build.props ( even though i use Rom Toolbox to do it , but a good feature to have none the less).Themes work well on the ROM.
Apex in landscape is a blessing !!!! Customisable settings menu as well . For the first build its pretty damn good , will be my ROM of choice that's for sure.Cant wait for the next builds to be released.
Only thing that i can fault is when you install an app and the icon is added automatically to your home page it seems to be cut off at the bottom , but deleting the icon and adding it from the app drawer again remedies that problem ( anyone else have that ?) Not sure it that's a problem with Apex as I'm using a theme on it with custom Icons.
On the navigation bar when you add new icons they show as "reflected " in the selection menu but don't seem to work in reality , but I'm making some new ones that you can add pretty much exactly the same as the ones in the ROM with a reflection, anyone wants them send me PM and i will send them over.Got a few more to do but wont take that long.
Apart from that its a sweet ROM ! Loving it big time

You're always left out on these. I was flashing 3100s on my 3113 but obviously mine has no phone function :silly:
I'm digging this so far. Can't seem to find anything wrong except for getting the screen to rotate when using trebuchet. Besides that all is hunky doory. Thanks! :thumbup:

what about some themes? Where can I find different nav buttons and theme colors

Custom roms and lag speed for an artist

Hello, I have a GN10.1 2014 and I was an ex owner of a GN10.1 2012, my question is quite simple, does the custom roms actually get rid of the lag when you draw ? I will be more specific, I didn't had any kind of lag on my old GN and now with the new screen (double the pixels) I have to use the 2x mode to draw smoothly... which mean that it's like drawing with the old one.
That occur with Layerpaint and Layerpaint HD, I own these 2 on the old one and I have to say I barely use them now because of that responsiveness. Sketchbook is cooler but of course (and I guess you noticed) it's zoomed in.
Can anyone confirm that it's getting better by installing a custom rom specifically to draw ? I don't want to lose the warranty (knox), because here now they check if you installed a custom rom or not...
Thanks in advance !

Ive been using both since 4 months, I have to say that I dont see any diference... obviously, if you want your tablet much faster than before, you need to mod your rom, is that why I have a custom rom, modified by me. (Just in a few things)
Is almost like my desktop, I just drawed that faster, without zooming, with my mamboo stylus actually, I prefeer to draw in this tablet than my computer... (just drawing and sketch's)

if it helps, i am on a custom rom and no lag with snote that i have experienced (have only had this a few weeks). I was recently makin a list of the plugins and various settings for my n64 emulator, for each game i have, and i had both snote and the emulator multiwindowed to make the task easier. Both apps ran well and no lag. Games were still playable and snote very responsive.

Sorry I was away, so the rom is the one you wrote on your signature ? I need to test that because right now I don't use my tablet that much =T

yes exactly one in my sig. I use my tab so much that my phone (also in sig) battery life is around 3-4 days. I charge my tab every night though.
For drawing on Note 10.1 2014 edition, I recommend Artflow studio. I get no lag whatsoever using that.

I have just read the posts corresponding to the ROM and Kernel you are using... And I'm convinced! I should install this on my tablet.
But first... Can you please tell me if I should install the kernel first and then the ROM, or is it the other way around?
I don't want to make any mistakes.
Thanks in advance!
You have to turn off the force gpu rendering, ull see a notable change in how smooth it is. Custom rom would help, gets rid of the crapware which eats up system resources and slowing down processor speed overall.

Flash rom see how you like then test out kernels you might want. You want to know the rom is working for you first then you can jump into adding other stuff, you know.
