[Q] upgrading to ICS

[rosystreasures]

Hi,

I just got another xoom. It has HC 3.2.1. I tried to upgrade using system updates. However, it says I am up to date....

Which xoom do you have?

 

[rosystreasures]

its the verizon...3g i believe.

Verizons ota updates haven't released ics yet. You will have to to root and install a custom rom.

 

[rosystreasures]

is there a tool which makes it somewhat easier to root?

How do I find which model ihave? It only says xoom....

I wouldn't be the person to ask on that, sorry. However this is the instructions I used to root mine, and they worked GREAT.

Make sure you read them a few times to become comfortable before attempting it. You can also check out a few of the other guides to see if you can find one you are more comfortable with.

It seems intimidating at first, most of my problem was getting all the up to date software on my computer, the actual process it self was pretty painless.

Good Luck it will be worht it.

Well then, there you go, if you want ics, you will need to root your xoom, or wait til verizon releases it.
