Is the 3.1 OTA release for Canadian Xooms out yet? I've seen plenty of talk that it was delayed back in may, but I have not read of anyone in Canada getting it yet. These HC updates are getting to be a royal PITA on several different tablets.
Rob
Noting official yet, Only Japan then China got it, they release it in Australia with major screw-ups then pulled it, I am starting to wonder if it will ever come out, rumors of Xoom 2, Google has released 3.2 and we don't even have 3.1. as soon as I know there is a safe way I am going to install the US version, Screw Motorola, good hardware **** support, will never buy another Motorola product,
I've been running the US version since the Xoom came out in Canada.

Sounds like a plan! I'll do a full backup of course beforehand so I can restore if I want to do OTA.
Rob
I didn't get the update as of yesterday. Finally got fed up with waiting and flashes to the US version and now running 3.2. In my opinion there's nothing to keep it in the Canadian version currently.

Besides your warranty of course, i doubt anything will go wrong but just in case. If i have to wait on motorola for ICS im rooting and flashing to US firmware right away.
Tired of waiting
Spent the past few weeks perched like a hawk in the Moto thread, hoping --nay, praying-- for the 3.1 update so that the Moto bluetooth keyboard issue with stuck keys (often the backspace key!) is fixed.
Finally said the hell with it on Friday and flashed the US "Google Experience" ROM, then got 3.1 and 3.2 in succession within about a half-hour. Keyboard works, SD works, it's a bit zippier, and I even have Google Videos and Books to boot. (Although I can't actually buy anything with them yet, just get the free books and play my own videos.)
Although the fact that I need to connect to my Windows to transfer files to the SD irks me a bit (I'm a Linux user), for the most part I'm pretty happy with the switchover.

Install an app called "USB Mass Storage Watcher OTG". I use that to mount my SD card in Ubuntu. I haven't tested it for 3.2 but it should work.
edit: looks like the 3.2 tiamat kernel may not yet support it.

So you flashed the 3.01 US WiFi rom and then you got the other updates OTA? Or did you manually flash those as well?
Rob
Just to follow up, I installed the US 3.01 stock image downloaded from the Motorolla dev site.
At first I tried to do the flashing from WinXP running in a VirtualBox VM, but that did not work. So I tried again with my Win7 laptop and that went a lot better. All the software to do this is a bit time consuming to install though... 3.1 and 3.2 updates came through OTA and my Xoom is now running 3.2.
I am disappointed there is no write ability to the sd card at this time.

BigRushDog will have a fix don't worry!
Anyone heard of a way to get the "Videos" app in the marketplace onto our galaxy tab 10.1 so we can rent movies from youtube/android market. It says its not compatible for our devices. My bro's eee transformer got it however, and i tried to "bump" the app over, but i couldnt.
How hard would it be to take the apk from his transformer and put it to mine? Not very knowledgable about that part...thanks for the help
for w/e reason it's not letting me find the app in Google Play. perhaps my ROM (AOPK)
does anyone know a way to get the apk? I just got my Nexus q
update:
I installed Jelly Bean and was able to download it
If the apk isn't locked to your device (with the encryption they announced at I/O) - can you post it? I'd love to have a peek inside!
Questions go in the Q&A section - not the Dev section
The google play description of the nexus q app claims that will work on anything with gingerbread and above, the app right now appears to only work and be listed for jelly bean devices
Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk 2
I installed a JellyBean Rom on my Verizon Galaxy Nexus for it to work.
here is the apk from a Titanium Backup it probably wont work lol but you never know
http://db.tt/Gf1AZApt
Thanks for posting the apk. I was unable to get it from the Play store as it's unavailable in Canada at the moment (seems silly, but whatever). I installed the app from your link and it works great! I'm listening to music on my Q as I type this.
glad to hear it actually works. I had my friend try it out on his G2x with no luck so I wasn't sure

What is yours android version?
Crud, I just bought a Q on E-Bay thinking I would get it quicker (it was also about $100 cheaper) than waiting for Google to ship me one but the APK won't install on my Bionic running the leaked ICS build. The Q application in the Play Store also says it's not compatible with either of my devices (the other being a Xoom running ICS) even though the description says it's compatible with Gingerbread and above. I assume that when the Q actually starts shipping they will fix this issue with the market application but my brilliant plan to get a Q sooner will be for naught!
I know its ridiculous but part of me is tempted to go buy a Nexus 7 or Galaxy Nexus off of Ebay so I'll have something to control this with when it gets here!

I would just wait or else buy a Galaxy Nexus. My kids have Galaxy Nexus phones so I just rooted theirs and installed JB to work with my Nexus Q. The original shipments of the Nexus Q were supposed to ship 2-3 weeks from Google I/O so the app should be available anytime.
I think it is dumb for Google to not have it available now. If I was a developer who got it free I would want to be able to try it out with my friends. After all it is supposed to be a social media device. It restricts the social aspect if it is only available on JB devices.

I wonder if they have it restricted to JB to try to prevent developers from selling theirs, if so I don't think it's working very well based on the number of them on eBay - LOL.
I'm going to be really bummed later this week when I get my Q and have nothing to control it with though.
I wonder if the problem is just the API level it's looking for or if there is something actually missing in ICS that prevents it from running properly with the current build.
Pretty sure it is somehow country specific in Play.
I was unable to install the apk to my JB Nexus 7 which I got at I/O. Being at home in Sweden. I was also unable to install it on my ICS Gnexus with a Telenor sim-card. I was however able to install it on my JB Gnexus (the one I got at I/O) which had my T-mobile sim-card.
I purchased two of these devices on ebay.
But I can't use them because I don't have JB device!
The above APK did not work on a rooted AT&T Galaxy Note with ICS.
I called and talked to google, and they said the non-JB package would be released when the product ships.
Just received the one I bought off of eBay and it sure is pretty - too bad I can't use it yet!
Any developer that can get the apk working on ICS before the official release from Google would get an automatic and significant donation from me (as well as my eternal gratitude)!
Despite my incredible lack of experience (absolutely 0) I did manage to get the apk to install on a couple ICS devices after modifying the manifest, rebuilding, resigning and re validating it (I will add my thanks to all the people's tools I used to do this later, I promise!!). I have it running on my unlocked and rooted LTE Xoom with the released ICS build and my Bionic running locked and unrooted leaked ICS. Both are a bit flakey however and both are telling me I need to update the Play Music application even though I've manually upgraded both to the 4.3.605 build. I did manage to get them to go through the network setup page and say it connected, showed services as Movies and YouTube but then both show it unavailable. I've reset the Q a couple of times and went back through the setup but so far I still can't manage it from either device. Right now my brain is cooked so I'll have to try it again tomorrow afternoon! Thanks for everyone here for their amazing contributions, I really hope the Q becomes a legend in Android history (in a very good way).
Ok, this is the APK on my rooted Verizon GNex, I'm using a ROM with JB to control my Q.
Hope it helps...
Well, I'm still stuck in the same place as yesterday but I decided to upload my modified APK in case anyone wants to try it on their ICS device.
WARNING!! I don't know what I'm doing and only managed to get this far thanks to awesome tools from others - use this file at your own risk!!!!!!!!!
If anyone can look at this thing and figure out why it won't let me connect to the Q after initial connection that would be awesome but I'm guessing that's not very likely either.
Thanks to: Kornyone his awesome work so far and telling me that changing the manifest got it working on his ICS device, Raziel123x for the Apk Multi-tool I used to sign this after modifying it and to iBotPeaches and Brut.all for the apktools. I apologize if I'm making you look bad with my unsuccessful efforts to use your excellent work.
Well, I've made a little bit of progress as I can now connect to the Q and change some rudimentary settings like HDMI, Optical, Brightness, etc. but it still tells me I need to upgrade the Play Music application, takes me to the Play Store and that of course tells me I have the latest build. Neither the Play Music or YouTube applications have the little button at the top to make it play on the Q. I also don't see anywhere to enable USB debugging as some others have been able to do, I was going to unlock it but can't access it via ADB without debugging turned on. Am I just missing that option somewhere else in the menu? It's not covered in the help topics at all.
I'm slightly pleased with myself for even getting it to install and connect but now I'm stuck again. :crying:
Any suggestions (other than buying a JB device or just waiting for the official app from el goog)?

It won't even install?
Hello everybody,
during my trip to China (still here at the moment ... ) I have bought the tablet PC in subject, for 150 USD.
It comes with WiFi, 16 gb, HDMI USB and ICS 4.0.3
Now, it tested it for some time before buying, for what I paid, it is OK, but I am now eager to know more about it.
The vendor's website does not tell much, even after Google Translate
suolx DOT com
Do you have any idea about how to
Understand what hardware I have
Know which other ROM I can load on it
Improve the WiFi reception (really weak)
Thanks a lot!
me too
I have bought one as well from dx.com and have no info about it
mine is S66 though sounds the same almost
agreed the wifi is the worse reception on android ive
come across.. even when you like 3 meters away
Im seeing if anyone has superuser it as it really needs
it
if anyone has succesfully rooted let me know
Hi! I did superuser it, no big problems, I found very useful the instuctions on slate droid forum.
Now i bought another more powerful device.

Does the G Pad 10 cases and screen protectors fits on the X 2 10.1?
You refer to this tablet as the AT&T LG Pad X 2 10.1. The AT&T web site shows this as the LG G Pad X 10.1. Is this the same tablet?
Do you have way to root this device yet?
Well you said ask anything, I have a question....
3 points lie on an xy plane, with each point representing where a particular person lives. Amy lives at point (2,3); Brian lives at point (0,7); and Claire lives at point (-2,3). They all wish to meet up with each other for lunch, but at a location that is equidistant from each of their respective houses. At what point do they meet?
a. (0,4.5)
b. (0,13/3)
c. (0,3)
d. (1,5)
e. (-1,5)

The AT&T G Pad X 10.1 that I have is 32GB. I don't think they have a 16GB option. I have a 128GB microSD card in it as well.

You can use an usb slim-port adapter. The slimport from Monoprice does work but one may also need to connect a power adapter to the adapter as some adapters need more power than supplied from the tablet else the battery could also run down very fast.
I have the pad 2 10.1 wifi & have used the Amazon slimport adapter for their Fire 8.9 4th gen to display on the TV. You can do miracast/*cast but the sound quality is much worst & quite noticeable.

I made the mistake of flashing one non-compatible, and now all i get is fastboot mode, and i'm not quite sure how to use fastboot, but trying to learn it so i can use my tablet again. Thanks so much for your time.
I was given a LG G-Pad on att&t service......Is their a way to make it work on Verizon service ?

How to upgrade to Marshmallow on LG V930 ?
I just received an LG V930 (LG G Pad X 10.1) off eBay. It was advertised as locked to AT&T, and has AT&T's bloatware. However:
- AT&T Device Unlock Request page does not recognize it as an AT&T device! I am trying to get around this via a 3rd-party unlock service.
- The tablet is running Android 5.1.1, Kernel 3.4.0, Build LMY47V, Version V93010d. But it does not update any further--it claims to be up to date already. How do I upgrade it to Android 6.0 ? Is it possible that the tablet is forcing me to wait 24 hours (after initialization) before Software Update will work?

An administrator on AT&T's Community Forum asserts that the tablet will not update unless it has an AT&T SIM card. I actually tried that, but the SIM card was pre-used; I got a message that it was "not provisioned", and the tablet would not update.
