Android 3.1 on Wifi Only Xoom w/ Screenshot

[monstercojones]

Hi Guys,

Just wanted to post up a screenshot of my Wifi only Xoom with Android 3.1 update. Haven't even tried playing with it yet, I just wanted to posted this up for everyone to see right away.

By the way, this is a stock build with the OTA update.

I've never made a video review... although I am quite photogenic, I can see how people would request that

Haha, if you mean more pictures - just let me know what screens you'd like to see with the 3.1 update and I'll be happy to post them up.

How did you make a screenshot on a stock Xoom?

 

[monstercojones]

you just download the android sdk...

I PMed board member Keitht and got this amazing response on how to take screenshots... hope it helps.

Huge props to Keitht for the great tutorial.


You have to have the Android SDK loaded on your computer:

http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html

You will also need Java Development Kit installed (make sure you download the proper version for your OS. Use Windows for 32-bit and Windows x64 for 64-bit):

You run the ddms.bat file from the Android SDK tools folder in a CMD window (to see if there are any errors). While you can just double click the file, if it doesn't bring up the application window, there may be an error that will not be displayed unless you launch it from a CMD window. If you didn't change the default installation path when installing the Android SDK, you will find the ddms.bat in C:\Program Files\Android\Android-SDK\tools.

The Xoom will need to be in debug mode under Settings > Applications > Development. When you launch ddms.bat successfully, a window will launch and you select your device from the list and choose Device > Screen Capture. You do not have to be rooted.

If you still have problems especially getting the computer to recognize the Xoom in

It's integrated in the market. If u don't see it then clear market cache and load again.

Got 3.1 myself about 30 minutes ago. Widgets thing is cool and its faster but besides that nkt much different! I guess the market didn't change. Sorry to the guy above for misinformation.
