In the Corporate (Exchange) mail. There is NO SEARCH button. I cannot find it on any menus either. I did download touchdown and am able to search in there but either I can't find it in the regular email program or it's a huge blunder by the Honeycomb team and they forgot to include one.
Sorry this has never been a feature of stock Android, ever. Not to say that it won't come, but they just haven't ever included it for whatever reason.
Pure speculation, but i think the search is missing because it would be restricted to messages downloaded to the xoom, missing anything residing on the server, reducing the usefulness of the search results.
For example, searching my gmail inbox from the mail app on my iphone never gives me anything past 10 recent emails.

My evo has email search and I have used it a ton of times. Kinda pissed it isn't included.

Your evo has HTC sense to handle corporate/regular email.

You might try using K9 Mail. They just released an update to make it compatible with honeycomb albeit not optimized.
I have XOOM and will probably return it because of this problem. FYI the built in Apple IPAD email reader is able to search local exchange mail correctly. Also the IPAD reader has a very useful preview funciton that I am used to in exchange and neither the built in email reader nor touchdown have this feature. bummer!
not included in the first honeycomb OS update
Well, my xoom just received the update to prepare it for the 3/18 adobe flash download -- email search was not included in this upldate. I too really miss this feature.

Think "Software platform", and then go download K9, it's free, or buy Touchdown. One does not have to rely on stock apps.
@Bauxite ...
WRONG... vanilla froyo and gingerbread (as well as all versions before that i think?) have ALWAYS had stock email search capabilities as well as systemwide searching. have you ever looked at just about every android device with the harware spyglass button at the bottom??
whats up xoom/motorola/google? this could be a dealbreaker for most people including me.
no email search
Pretty poor coming from a company who is al about search.
Is there any update to this?
I have an ASUS Transformer and it is VERY annoying not to have search functionality in the browser. I use IMAP and not Exchange so I can't figure out how to make Touchdown work either (plus I would rather not pay money)
Fix this, Google!!
I don't know may it's stupid request, but may could change somehow apk for Thunderbolt that it works on our XOOM devices? I tried to install apk of Skype with Video on my XOOM WiFi, but without success.

I would LOVE to have this working on our Xooms!
Yeah! That will be pretty neat. I'm not a dev, but truly believe that this apk isn't just sighned for xoom, and that results in "app not installed" message
I tried to install it too, didnt work ;-(
There has to be something within the files that only allow it to work on the Thunderbolt. I opened the apk and searched through the files, but did not see any type of device ID or anything that read "thunderbolt" or HTC. I remember when I used to make BlackBerry hybrids, there were "device IDs" that could be modified. I am uncertain about Android.
I am going to try and install it on other model phones running Froyo and see what I can figure out.
The only other thing I could think is that it is just not written to be compatable with honeycomb as most apps arent.
It won't install on my Evo either

Yes, at least I'm check it, but it doesn't help
Tried installing that APK on Nexus 1, Galaxy S and Xoom, none of them work. There seems to be a lot of buzz about this but not too much info beyond that.
Skype really needs to release a Honeycomb video chat client. With so many HC tablets in the works, it would really be a killer app.
However, I think I can understand Skype's hesitation. Can you fellas imagine the massive amounts of traffic that would hit Skype's datacenters?
I just tried G-Chat Video chat, and it works amazingly well if you guys haven't tried it. At least as a temporary alternative.
Why don't google hurry up and update talk with video like when using gmail you can video chat?

Google's video-chat already works on the Xoom.
Is that a tablet only thing as it's missing from galaxy s?

Google talk video was released only for Honeycomb.
It cross platform Google solution because it works with PC and mac running Google talk.
Unfortunately, there is no such thing for Froyo.
Is there a way to use Google Talk for calls with Skype users?
FYI this program works on XOOM and available for Android and iOs system.

Has anyone manually updated to 3.1 on a non us wifi xoom? I am running stock without any modifications I have a Japan xoom model mz604. The process seems pretty simple but I want to confirm others got it working before I risk bricking mine.
Xoom Updated with the Latest Android 3.1 support, but only for Verizon version.
The update details of Xoom Android 3.1:
● Support for movie rental function of Android electronic market, streaming movies to big screen devices with HDMI;
● fully supports the Adobe Flash Player 10.2;
● Recustomized the Widget of Xoom;
● support for connecting multiple USB devices, including mouse, keyboard, joystick and digital cameras;
● support for using bluetooth headset on Google Talk, Bluetooth keyboard and mouse, and using shortcut keys;
● Image transmission communication will be more convenient to transfer pictures to PC.
Ditto for me on. UK wifi Xoom... Don't want to have to wait 'several weeks' :-(

didn't exactly want to root it as wanted to keep it stock and happy and stuff
Have any of you tried doing a factory reset and then checking for system updates, or changing the date and then checking? Just what I've read in other threads. I'm going to try it myself tonight, as I haven't got my XOOM with me right now
Also very keen to know when and how we UK users can update!
Hi. Have any of you updated to 3.1 with the US update as im thinking about upgrading my wifi xoom with the 3.1 hack by brd but was wanting to know if anyone else had done it successfully on a non-us xoom. Thanks.

Mine is Xoom UK, I was impatient, so I start manual update to US 3.1, everything works great. Some apps that initially missing in 3.01 UK, are here now with US update like Google books, some games etc, but the overall system is faster. No more stupid messages on android market like - not available in your country, or something. Thank you all !

Mine too, google limit access for the rest of the world except US, but in the future this will change. More important is that market fully working (for now) .
Now we waiting for microSD Card
Just got the Google Videos app on my UK wifi xoom updated to US 3.1 rom. Really very annoying that we can't use videos in the UK yet. Is there any way around it? Through a proxy perhaps? The irony is that to get most proxy apps to work you need root, which is another thing that prevents use of Google Videos.
Hmm what if you had some sort of vpn connection to the US? Just a thought... Oh well, movies are the least of the worries
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA Premium App
Yes, it is possible and I have done so myself using brd's rom. I had an HK Xoom which is now US 3.1, rooted and with access to the sdcard and it feels a lot responsive than stock. The market app even sees my Xoom as a US Verizon Xoom thus allowing me access to apps ordinarily unavailable to users in my region.

Does this require root? Can someone post some screenshots? I am at work and won't have the tablet for a couple hours.
This new Market version looks exactly like the phone version.
Why have they changed the interface.
The previous one looked great.
Previous version - 1.0.27
this looks just like the new market on the android phones. i dont really like how it looks..... i wish there was a way to hide the movies/books from the market because i doubt i will ever buy/rent a book or a movie from the app store. i noticed no difference in performance. im sticking with the old market for now, but thanks for the download

Precisely the reason I renamed marketupdater on my phone, and will probably be doing it on my tab too.

I tried out the new Market app but had to remove it. It caused Earth and Legend to crash on load and I read a report that it causes Dungeon Defenders to crash too. I'm guessing these apps may have some type of protection that calls the Market app?
Sent from my A500 using Tapatalk
I'm now running this new market on my a500. I must say that the old market feels cumbersome and clumsy.this is way more suited to hc and is feels streamlined...
I love it on my DInc2 it took a while to get used to but I can't stand the old market anymore.
I haven't run into any problems with crashing apps. Earth runs fine. I'm using honeyvillain's rom.
Does this improve any problems with the Honeycomb Market, like reviewing apps direct from the tablet?

Portrait mode is sweet although the market is really crying out for a customized view, wierdly though the old market is still available alongside the new market on my tab 10.1(overcome rom). Accessing app details is not very intuitive, clicking the icon for the selected app shows details but there is no visual prompt to suggest this(could be a BOB issue). No issues launching any apps so far.
What's the best way to install this? I would think to remove Vending.apk from system/apps, rename this file to vending.apk and put it into the apps folder...is that right?
Update: Nope, don't need to do all that. Just download and install
Update: I LIKE! Portrait mode, FINALLY able to click a screen shot for a larger image, everything flows very well, seems like this market version is even better suited for a tablet than a phone. Thumbs up!
Thanks for the download MJ-12!

Definitely a better market than what was built in. It is a lot faster than the old one, which is especially impressive considering the very limited internet I have access to right now.
Havn't ran in to any problems with it so far.
Downloaded this And I still have old market and new market. 2 different icons.

It is similar as stock android browser but i has a score of 343+10 on html5test.com also it is faster and better looking, more desktop like it has some nice feautures of auto zooming but i got some problems with pinch to zoom

Same thing here. Saw it first thing this morning. Downloaded from market. After typing in a search, never loads web content. UI is there, just no web content. (Currently running evervolv 4.0.3 ICS ROM).
Tried wiping cache and data. Didn't think to try fixing apk uid mismatches. Already uninstalled, though.

Works great on my Nexus S running ICS but cant get it in my Galaxy Tab 10.1 running 3.1, wont even try to install.
Lovely browser though, its streets ahead of the normal one.
The app requires the LEVEL 14 API.. So not sure when the great devs here can get it to work with GINGERBREAD.
I have it running on my epic 4g with cm9 but its a no go on the evo. The UI looks great, I like the functionality of the tabs. Look forward to playing with it on my transformer
Darn, and here I was thinking I could break free of miren... Anyone know if intent works properly on this one? (i.e. you open a Youtube link and it gives you the option to load it in the Youtube app)
Didn't work well for me
I tried it out on my Evo running Drew's P7 build. Uninstalled it after about 5 minutes. It takes up 50 MB of internal storage, wouldn't move to SD, the keyboard was really laggy when typing URLs, the page wouldn't display, and when I went into app management, it was using a whopping 81 MB of RAM.
Maybe I'll revisit this later, but for now it isn't right for my device.
