OTA Released (Root for manual update) - Flash on Market MAR18 (Leaked)

Motorola XOOM users on the Verizon Wireless network: starting tonight, a maintenance release is rolling out to you in phases, so watch for a notification on your device that will tell you when it’s ready for download. The update includes required enhancements to support Adobe® Flash® Player 10.2 (coming soon); it also includes a fix for a bug we identified with Daylight Savings time, so be sure to install it!

No flash, just support for it... http://www.facebook.com/motorola
Update: Flash 10.2 announced release on market MAR18 http://blogs.adobe.com/flashplayer/2011/03/update-on-flash-player-10-2-for-mobile-devices.html
And, Flash leaked! http://www.multiupload.com/5FOUMVZI32
Manual OTA instructions via Koush (ROOT REQUIRED): http://www.koushikdutta.com/2011/03/manually-updating-your-rooted-xoom.html

well, maybe this will fix my wierd clock issue today... hmmm

At least this shows how quickly updates will come... I guess.

how will us with wifi only get this?

Any update is good news at this point I think. I wonder if there is any harm in updating, ie will it remove the ability to root and what not? I wish they would provide more details on what exactly the patch does. Also, it clearly says on the Verizon network, what about those not on it and are only on wifi?

MY droid always popped up updates even when I was only on wifi. I imagine we'll all get it or someone will post the update.zip anyway.

I'm curious if the Tegra 2 versions of flash (10.1) floating around will have something to interact with, and start functioning. They have with everything else. As soon as I get the OTA (no 3G), I have a folder full of them in my Dropbox.

Has anyone figured out how to force a check in on the Xoom?

Question of the day. No dialer :/

yesssssssssssss

Glad to see an update but there is nothing listed to get excited about except a possible problem with the upcoming daylight savings time switch. Who cares about the flash update since it does not actually include it. But this will be a good test run to see how the updates are sent out and applied.

Cann't wait for the update to start

You can force a check by rebooting. Not the best method, but it works.

Why do unlocked xooms need to get relocked?
I understand why you need to be on stock boot.img but i don't understand why you need to have the device relocked to get the update.
It makes no sense.

According to the system update tab this didn't happen in 3 reboots since the announcement. Still last check at 5:20. Really want to see if any of the 10.1 Tegra versions work after this. I've been frantic to have Flash lately (PlayOn/Netflix).

It might have a minimum time between checkins. Mine said 9:20am, then showed current time for last checkin when I rebooted.

So would it be fair to say that those of us who have rooted should wait until this update is released to see if in fact we really do need to revert back to stock/locked condition? Because I'd really be pissed if we had to lose all of the data on our Xooms just for this update, when very few of us have actually changed anything with the boot.img, etc. I mean back when I first rooted my N1 but before I flashed custom ROMs, I never had to wipe back to stock to receive OTA updates, so why would that be the case here??

Reports coming in that Xoom Wifi owners have received the updates today!

Hey Xoomers! It appears that wifi-only xoom owners are also having the updates pushed to their tabs also! I have not received it yet, but be patient, looks like all Xooms are being updated!
https://supportforums.motorola.com/message/380602#380602

could be an accident. looks like people over there are getting silenced about the update

From the sounds of it, this was meant to go out to their preview members only. I guess someone jumped the gun and didn't bother to let them know they weren't supposed to talk about it.
Which is only a guess, since the corporate rep on the forums has been very vague - only a single post with a "maybe" and then a bunch of posts insisting that people who have stated they got an update check their email.
I wonder if Motorola has really internalized the fact that there are, like, four or five other vendors for these tablets coming out in the next few months - many of them with very, very similar hardware. Not communicating with their tech-savvy audience seems like a poor way to convince people to recommend their tablet over others.

They need to share this ****!!!

i got the update on my WIFI ONLY xoom i tried installing it it crashed on the android with exclamation mark, so i restarted and its back on 3.0.1 and says its up to date
DAMMIT

not only in usa
also reported in my country
Seems moto launch a experiment

This is pretty disappointing. The update obviously exists and works on the wifi xoom but google won't release it yet probably just to make Verizon happy.
Are people really going to go out and buy 3g xooms just because the update on Verizon came first.

Hmm Being in Denmark and having purchased a US Xoom Wifi I wonder what to do. (Stock 3.0)
So I did the following ...
Added a VPN tunnel to USA. (had previosly brought VPN access)
Set the date 1 day back, to let the Xoom look for updates.
" no cigar! "
Set the date 1 day forward (today´s date)
Still no luck -
I wonder if the update is really rolling out
Can Anyone confirm Xoom Wifi is really getting 3.1 right now ?
Is there Anyway to "push" it - (besides the date change procedure)
Have a good one

I also have a US WIFI only Xoom in Europe and i'm impatient
I downloaded the update from development forum, made a host USB cable and updated my Xoom manually.
I must say that everything that i hoped for is fixed in 3.1, so i'm really pleased with my Xoom now.

I'd also like to hear more about your update experience and see how you made a usb host cable.
Will probably require a new thread.

Read the Guide thread, all information is there, including a link to how to make a host cable. If something is still unclear, then just ask.

Not according to my conversation with Motorola today. Can you buy a wi-fi only from Verizon? Just wondering if those are still branded differently and that's why they're getting updates.
For now 32GB is plenty for me so I'm not exactly screaming for the SD card update. But I will be a little disappointed if I have to wait weeks for my update when Verizon got theirs already. There were several items in the list below that I was really hoping to take advantage of. I'm not exactly crying over the update just yet though, because I'd rather do the official OTA update than download directly like others have been doing. However, I will pre-qualify all this with...the rep I spoke with didn't seem to be the most knowlegable and appeared to be reading from a script based on the responses I was given to some other questions I asked. So take this with a grain of salt.
Ann: Motorola XOOM with Wi-Fi tablets and other variants of Motorola XOOM will receive the update within the next several weeks.
frost: will this update include the sd card support?
Ann: It does not.
frost: will that fix be implemented any time in the near future?
Ann: It's enhancements are:
● Enables movie services including Android Market Movie Rental via full HDCP / DRM support
● Enables support for full Adobe Flash 10.2 release
● Picture Transfer Protocol Feature Support
● Bluetooth(R) support in Gtalk
● Bluetooth(R) mouse support along with further Bluetooth(R) headset support
● Adding Proxy support for Wi-Fi network
● Resizable widgets
● Additional shortcut key support for Bluetooth keyboard
Ann: Yes. A future software upgrade will enable the SD card.

So I've changed my Date & Time and still haven't recieved my 3.1 Update for my Wifi Xoom.
Any suggestions....???? (Besides being patient...... just can't do that....)

Has anyone else with a Wifi model got there update today?

who has not yet received OTA on US stock Wifi?

Is it just me? Am I alone?
US Wifi stock
In Germany
Locale de US US
Will report back when i get it!
Hdtvpower

I have a stock US WiFi (although I'm located in Canada) and haven't received it yet.

I and I am sure many others have not recieved 3.1 yet.
In fact most wifi owners(if not all) who have it flashed it with clockwork recovery or something like that.

I have a stock US 3G version (I'm in the US) and still haven't got an update. It's very Annoying !!!

no update here yet. I have a second Xoom that's been in a box for a few weeks, just powered it up and no update either. Both are 3G.

none for me yet. stock 3g. im droolin over here

I have a Stock Wifi, bought in the U.S, running in France and I received the OTA some hours ago (in France, yes).

I have a stock US Wifi Xoom 3.0.1 here in Belgium and still no update eather :s

stock wifi xoom here and nothing so far.. smh. FIGURED IT WOULD BE QUICKER BEING THAT THEY ONLY SOLD LIKE 125 XOOMS.. GRRR

Funny, I started reading this thread when I remembered I haven't checked on my Xoom WiFi yet...and what do you know....it was waiting for me. Installed successfully.
BTW...my Xoom was stock and unrooted...just FYI before anyone asks.
Funny thing...no Movie app as was reported by others. What gives.

Just to add to the chorus. bone Stock, no update.

3G here in Detroit area, bought the minute the doors opened on launch day. No update yet. Been trying to be patient (only checking every hour now), and haven't had free time. Got some free time tonight, though, so will load it manually if it's not appeared by then.

Stock 3G XOOM, no update yet. Last checked at 7AM automatically.

stock wifi. nothing yet. New York

Stock Xoom Wifi in Fort Worth and I have not received it either.
Update: I just got off the phone with Motorola Support and they informed me that the Wifi versions will not received the 3.1 update for another 5 to 7 days.
On a positive note they did say that there is now a fix for the micro SD card and it will be pushed out about the same time as the Wifi 3.1 update!!

BS...I got it this morning. Can't test SD...don't have one on hand...wait until I get home from work.
- Performance wise: I thought it was fast already, so I haven't noticed much.
- Scalable widgets: I like very much...something I loved on my Atrix (MotoBlur)
- Browser Performance: Let me just put it this way...you can finally load the XDA's Forums home page
- USB: Can't test it yet as I don't have a regular-to-micro converter.
Still, I can't find the Movie/Video app

no update here either, stock wifi only

Were you rooted or stock?
And how can you say BS.....

I have come to realize I love my xoom more than it loves me. Everyday, more than a few times, I ask it are you the most current version. Without fail it always answers yes. I just can't turn my love off so I will continue to ask it and hope that soon it will tell me the truth.

It's true!

^^ Yay!
The first device with real TRUE microsd card support from google. I can't wait to give that stretcher thing a try.

we need feed back. those that received it, are you 3g or wifi? is SD enabled. details damn it. lol

Looks like it's only the wifi model... otherwise Verizon would have announced something?

some people say that it gives SD support for Wi-Fi xooms, not verizon xooms. I hope its not true, but if it is, this has to be some major pile of bull**t.

nothing for me either.

I would not worry about it so much. We are all going to have to wait for the devs to work their magics regardless. There will always be an offline method of installation via CWM as usual that is already rooted and has all of that other goodness.
Once the devs take over and get ahold of the OTA zip files, we will see updated versions of their ROMs in no time. They will have the 3.2 features in it with all of their own other custom features/contents. I say... wait for Team Tiamat, they will do their thing. You know it'll be them to do it once again, as almost always. After that, say hello to other iterations of custom 3.2 ROMs, and then updated kernels from all teams that will work on the new 3.2 update. That's my opinion, but I believe it a makes a very good point.

I've got a Wifi Xoom and I got the update too. I tried to restart to install, and got the "exclamation point in a triangle" on boot. I'm rooted with the Tiamat Kernel, so that's probably why it errored out.

Wife Speeds and 4G speeds on the Note 3

I have noticed download speeds way quicker on 4G rather than my Wifi at home. I downloaded Hyperdrive RLS3 last night after i got off work, as i was driving home i noticed how fast it was downloading it took it about 20 mins to download a 1.2gb file. On the other hand when i try to download files that large on my wifi at home it takes hours, Is there somthing i can do to fix this i thought it might be a slow SD card but i dont think thats the case considering how fast its downloading on 4g. If there is a fix will someone please post. Thanks and

He made that comment because your thread title is mispelled. It says "wife" instead of "wifi"
You can download a speed test app to verify your speeds.
4G is definitely faster than my home wifi.

Your wife is faster than mine, Lucky guy.
Multiple factors involved in your home internet. Probably doesn't belong in this forum but I'll answer for your reference.
If you're using DSL, (AT&T) that's your problem. Acquire a faster service
Assuming you're using a cable modem service (Comcast, TimeWarner, Cox cable, etc) Check if your service is DOCSIS 3.0 compliant. If so, make sure you have a DOCSIS 3.0 cable modem. You can buy one yourself or get one from your provider.
Next step, Ensure you have an updated wireless router that has 1GB NIC ports. (Apple airport Extreme or Netgear R6300v2 AC-1750, come to mind) If you have a 10 year old Linksys G router, that's a bottle neck
3rd step ensure your service is set to higher download speed. For example Comcast has "Blast" option which allows an advertised 30MB Download speeds.
Another ISP is Verizon FIOS if it's available in your area.
I'm guessing your ISP or current equipment is your home internet speed issue. Hope this info was helpful.

Lol like the first part...thanks alot for your information, i will most certain make some changes. And yes i have a link system bought it from wallyworld. Thanks again for the info.
HAPPY HOLIDAYS. Sorry for posting in the wrong forum.
