So, I was running tiamat 1.4.1. (HC 3.0.1)
Made a nand backup and Flashed HC 3.1 but lost locales (pt-br)
If I restore my nand and then flash this kernel, I won't be on HC 3.1, right?

On the other hand, I'll have mine locales back, right?

Sorry for the nb question....

Cheers and tks for the effort.

That is correct. This kernel will nor work for you if you restore a 3.0.1 backup. However your locales will return

I was hopin' that you'd come through with the OC versions and you have! Thanks a bunch BRD.

One little problem. I have a 3G Verizon Xoom and had previously flashed a 3.1 rooted. Everything was working fine. WI-Fi is now showing as an error now that I hvae updated the new Boot Img and 1.6 kernel. Are there the correct BCM modules, etc. that I can push and then reboot to get Wi-Fi back up again?

Update: For whatever reason bcm4329.ko didn't get installed properly. I then went into the .ZIP update and extracted it and then adb pushed the bcm4329.ko and Wi-Fi is back up and smiling again. With that error....are there any other files that likely might not have been correctly rewritten that I should push....just in case?

Hi..!!! Xoomers I have been flashing this kernels since day one, but I never cared for the use of setcpu or whatever that program its called, but now I want to try the overclocking world and I want to know if there's a guide on how to use and set up SETCPU btw I have the 1.6 kernel.

Thanks in advance to all, specially to BDR, you are awesome.

Guys, I'm gonna be honest for a second here. I have made the instructions as simple as possible. They can be made no simpler. You are flashing a boot image because RAMDISK IS STILL BEING DEVELOPED! All you have to do is follow the instructions. I spend alot of time not only on development, but developing the simplest method of implementation possible. In a few days when I drop a new Mass Storage kernel, you will most likely have to flash ANOTHER BOOT IMAGE. You can blame GoogMotoCorp for not doing the MicroSD card right. Just follow the instructions guys. Ughhh :confused: :confused:

I followed the directions exactly, and all went without a hitch! Your instructions could not be clearer or easier!!! And my Quadrant scores are incredible! Thank you SO much, BRD! You are awesome!!!!

It should be at /usbOTG
Excellent question, so there's no need for SetCPU...?? Or Droid overclock...??

The kernel is OC'd but you need a program like SetCPU to set the OC level otherwise it stays at the standard 1Ghz level.

/usbOTG is only showing up in ES File Explorer, no other file manager. also when i click it it says the directory is empty, but my flash drive certainly is not. i have even tried restarting the devices with the flash drive still in there and nothing.

gahhhh i need this! i hope this doesnt mean that an xbox controller wont work also :(

Do you have the necessary OTG cable? I'm still waiting for mine so I can't confirm it works. I've also heard that not all flash drives are recognized. What file system is the drive formatted to?

i bought a converter off amazon, its not motorollas cable. but i was able to use my hard disks through this converter on the older tiamat kernels, when we were running 3.0. am i going to need this exact cable????

    How to Install

    Instruction for flashing Tiamat Xoom Kernel And Boot Image Packs

    NOTE: These instruction assume you have flashed ClockworkMod Recovery and upgraded to Honeycomb 3.1!

    Preparation

    1. Proceed to the Boot Image Section and grab your favorite boot image. Not needed if you're happy with what you got.

    2. Proceed to the Download Center post and grab your kernel.

    Installation

    1. Reboot into recovery.

    2. Go into "mounts and storage"

    3. Select "mount USB storage"

    4. Your SD Card will now be mounted on your computer. Drop the kernel (and boot image pack if applicable) onto SD Card.

    5. "Go Back" then go into "install zip from sdcard" then "choose zip from sdcard"

    6. If you are flashing a boot image pack, flash it first. Then flash the kernel zip. NOT FOR ANDROID 3.2

    7. Back out to main menu and reboot.

    As a Tiamat Xoom Kernel User, you agree to the following terms and common sense principals

    • As an Android Enthusiast, you are responsible for having a basic understanding of commonly used tools. These include, but are not limited to, ADB, shell, fastboot, and ClockworkMod Recovery.
    • You agree to follow the instructions EXACTLY AS POSTED. With recovery and Kernel Manager, it should now be relatively easy to flash.
    • You agree that this is a kernel development thread on a development website. You will treat other users with dignity respect. Your posts will be easily understandable and productive.
    • You agree to NEVER ASK FOR TIMEFRAMES OR ETA'S. I have a boss at work, and at home, and it's not you. ;)

    Full repository of all versions, released and unreleased for the HTC Droid Incredible, the HTC Evo 4G, and the Xoom

    Release notes for 2.0.0:
    Tiamat Kernel 2.0.0 Katana, is ONLY TO BE USED WITH 3.2. IT WILL NOT WORK WITH 3.1.
    Also, do not flash a boot.img as this will also break stuff at the moment on 3.2.

    Release Notes for 1.4.4: 1.7Ghz is likely as far as we can push the Tegra2 cores. We have stress tested the heck out of 1.7 and it is safe. However, safe does not mean stable. Personally, I can run 1.7 on Interactive governor all day and it's smooth as butter. Other folks get reboots. If you can not run at 1.7, try 1.6. Everybody who tested was able to run at 1.504 without any problems. Just because this release is clocked to 1.7, that does not mean you can not run at stock speeds. Simply do not overclock. The settings for 1Ghz are identical to stock settings. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND you leave your device on INTERACTIVE. You may use Performance solely for benchmarking purposes, but then PUT IT BACK.

    USB Tether: Plug OTG cable into Xoom. Plug phone with microUSB cable into OTG cable. On phone, enable USB Tether. On Xoom, run the following in terminal or script manager (Scripter, GScript, Tasker) of your choice.

    Code:
    dhcpcd usb1
    setprop net.dns1 8.8.8.8

    The Xoom will not show any indication that there is a network connection. But pull up your browser and surf away. Like I said earlier, I tested this personally on the Evo with a Sense rom. It works perfect. However, there are countless devices out there. Your experience may vary.

    Tiamat Xoom Kernel Boot Images For Honeycomb 3.1 ONLY NOT FOR 3.2


    Be sure to flash your boot image first! Then flash your kernel. You can flash the boot image and kernel back-to-back in the same recovery session. Don't worry. If you mess up and flash just these boot images, your device will still boot.:rolleyes::rolleyes:


    About These Boot Images

    These modifications apply to all boot images

    • Enable MicroSD card in Android mounted at "sdcard/external".
    • Enable USB Host with and OTG cable mounted at "/usbOTG"
    • New! EXT4 file system mount mod for faster write speeds and killer Quadrant scores. Thanks TDR from AndroidCentral!

    Just want to point out that the link to the new kernel is NOT bigrushdog's kernel. Flash with good judgment. Also, I think it was bad manners posting that link here....should have started your own thread.

    Sent from my HTC HD2

    It's all good. No worries. Not like I did enough this week or anything lol. I am going to release Tiamat 1.4.2 today. Quite frankly, it's wicked. BTW, don't be fooled by ext4 filesys hacks to trick a high quadrant score. You guys remember my "hyperspeed" kernel? It was the same thing. I can get a 9000 quadrant score doing that. Put it has no real impact on device performance. Anyways, we got a killer kernel on the way.
