^ then you are sol on that.

Bauxite you said you got it to work so what exactly were the steps?

 

[dubie76]

Same here. Looks like it works, until it starts to load and I get the "!" and nothing.

Change your date to the 9th then back, it will say you can try the update again.

That means you have something that isn't stock and the update won't work. The update patches existing programs, so they must be verified as stock.

So regardless...going back to stock is step 1 I'm understanding either for ota or not?

Really don't want to flash back to stock...I have otg cable and adapters tho

I don't want to go back to stock only for it to still work. I'm hearing that this was an unintentional release and it's not meant to work. Can anyone confirm that it is working with solid proof?

I went stock and it didnt work

problem is following those instructions (koush's) u have to root (theres a SU command)

and to root the xoom using that one click root it installs some kernel right, so thats the 'non stock' part, , but is there ne other way

no step, no error just goes to the android exclamation mark, starts loading bar, then just sticks there

i used this:

but used the wifi update instead (that i pulled off my xoom)

 

[SS2006]

I also used the zip he linked, same result

definately the rooting process is changing something stock which is why it may b failing, if only there was some way to do it from all stock, lack of sd card sucks

But I'm receiving the update OTA, which doesn't require me to do anything other than let it download and install. If I'm stock, wouldn't the OTA update work? Since I wouldn't have to use anything that is required with root?

If you're stock and you are receiving the update OTA then you should be able to update successfully.

My wifi xoom don't show any update! My model is MZ604 and it shows 3.0.1 . On checking system update it shows 'your device is up to date'. I am in Canada if it matters.
