Any way to root Android 4.0.4?

[SulphurFeast]

Hi there, i have a Motorola Xoom (MZ604 - brazilian) and i got tired of waiting for our official ICS rom so i unlocked it's bootloader and flashed it with a retail USA 3.0 and updated it to ICS 4.0.4... my question is... is there any way to root it now?

thx a lot.

Go to http://www.androidsu.com and download the Superuser-3.0.7.zip file, flash that in ClockworkMod recovery. Done. Simple as that.

I think the universal root method should still work fine. I flashed the single zip through CWM recovery awhile back on 4.0.3 without issue, so I doubt you'd have trouble with 4.0.4 (unless something major changed).

Or just install push recovery image thru adb and install custom android 4.0.4 rom already rooted by team eos...

Yeah, I like the TeamEOS flavor of ICS. I can't guarantee it working on your Brazilian xoom, however, if you can use it, it is a great rom. It provides a very stock experience but with many more features that compliment Android 4.0.4 without bloat. There are both nightlies and stable versions, both get updated (when you flash newer versions in recovery) so you won't miss out on any new features. And yes, it is rooted for you.

Of course, there are plenty of other equally great roms from other great developers to try out in case TeamEOS's rom doesn't fit your needs (or if you get flashing-fever).

Just saying, I am not to be held responsible for any damage (yes, there are risks) that happens to anything because of this post.

Hope that helped.

Cheers

It does work on Brazilian xoom. Team EOS rocks.

Oh, if that's the case and if the OP is still interested, unlocking the bootloader, flashing solarnz's recovery and flashing a pre-rooted rom (like EOS) might be the way to go. It also might be worth mentioning that rooting, unlocking the bootloader, and certainly flashing a new rom would probably *void* the warranty on the Xoom.

Just for good measure, I am not to be held responsible for any damage (yes, there are risks) that happens to anything because of this post.

Please read this procedure carefully the one I have shared on xda to root and flash custom ICS ROM on MZ601. The only difference in your case is to download and flash the rom for MZ604.
