Yea, I've spent over a week trying to get the original firmware to boot or even just get into cwm or twrp recovery. I can't even get it into the the stock recovery. It's just stuck at the Dual Core M screen. fastboot, rds, recovery options are available though.

I've tried the following without any luck:

- fastboot oem unlock before flashing all images, and keep bootloader unlocked
- fastboot oem unlock before flashing all images, and keep bootloader locked
- fastboot oem unlock, flash rds, fastboot oem lock
- fastboot oem unlock, flash rds, keep bootloader unlocked
- tried different recoveries, bigpart, non-bgipart, different version i could get hold of. I could never get into twrp or cwm
- tried all different kinds of images, rds files from MZ602 to MZ604

I think it is hard bricked. The only thing I have not tried is to flash rds MZ600 since it is no where to be found.

Get both XOOM sbf firmware file ( flashable with rsd) and stock firmware from Motorola (flashable with fastboot).
Extract motorola firmware into your laptop system

then, flash the sbf firmware with rsd file. on completion, boot your XOOM into fastboot mode

Apply the following command sequence
fastboot erase recovery
fastboot erase boot
fastboot erase cache
fastboot erase userdata
fastboot erase system
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot flash system system.img
fastboot flash userdata userdata.img
fastboot erase cache
flashboot oem unlock
and reboot

It's still stuck at Dual Core logo screen unfortunately. This is what I get when it's connected to RDSLite.



I'm using both MZ604_HWI69 firmware and VZW_MZ604_signed_HTJ85B.sbf. I flashed the sbf first then I used a script I made to flash the firmware.

Code:
fastboot erase boot
fastboot erase recovery
fastboot erase boot
fastboot erase cache
fastboot erase userdata
fastboot erase system
REM pause
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot flash system system.img
fastboot flash userdata userdata.img
fastboot erase cache
fastboot oem unlock
pause
fastboot reboot
If anyone can help, I wold really appreciate it.

This is the info I extracted from getvar

Code:
fastboot getvar all

(bootloader) version-bootloader: 1045
(bootloader) product: xoom-cdma
(bootloader) secure: yes
(bootloader) model: MZ600
(bootloader) memory-info: 0x303:0x5454:0

Are you sure you are not flashng the wrong firmware on your Xoom? Get the MZ600 files and apply as I have outlined it. What I observed lately is that flashing sbf file through rsd is not enough to get back to stock, you only need it to get access to get fastboot running and bootloader. Once you are at this stage, you can switch to using fastboot to flash the original firmware from Motorola.

Take another look at the files you have have and if possible get a different version of Xoom file and test it sing the procedures.

I agree with you. The problem is, the MZ600 sbf is a unicorn. I'm still searching.. Thank you

VZW_MZ600_Signed_HRI39_Signed_MDM600BP_C_02.0F.00R _SW.combo.sbf
