uk bought xoom - need help

[ropin1]

asked in q&a but no response
hi guys,

i just bought a xoom in the uk as an impulse buy. usually i do a lot of reading on things like this so i dont usually need help when it comes to rooting, unlocking bootloader etc.

This has probably been asked but i tried searching and i just got more confused. I would like to know if the uk xoom (wifi only) can be rooted and if i can unlock the bootloader. i would like to install a jellybean rom if that is possible but i couldnt really find i guide on this particular version.

If anyone can help i would greatly appreciate it.

Thank you

I'm sure this has been covered, must search harder!! LOL

Anyhow
I flashed this Rom on to my uk xoom. Doesn't matter that it's for the US one , well I've not seen any ill effects It also turns your device into a google experience device so updates come direct from google. You're a bit late to the party on that one however as they've dropped support in 4.2.1

Bootloader is unlockable through fastboot oem unlock ( this will wipe your data ), no hacking required.

That should give you something to start wifi!
