I made a quick link update for you. The root section for the 3.2 3G Xoom is now made available. It's actually the same link as the 3.2 Wifi model as well, because the thread shows you how to root both. I almost forgot about that until I checked that thread again. Thanks for the reminder!
Hmm... it's hard to say what went wrong while you tried to root your 3.1 Wifi Xoom. I cannot say for sure, but I would go into the appropriate thread that I have given in the original post for the 3.1 Wifi Xoom rooting, and post about it there. I can help as much as I can, but I don't have a Wifi Xoom to test. Maybe someone in that thread can give you the appropriate answer. Sorry about that.
I had the same trouble. I resolved it by going to a slower computer. I don't know why this helped, maybe something to do with the timing.
The only thing I can think of at the moment is that you are missing the Motorola USB drivers since it's not recognizing it at all. Please go here and download and install the USB drivers from Motorola: Motorola USB Drivers (for Windows)
You are doing a hella job on this. The only thing that would be nice is some way for the non-US Xooms to get hold of their stock images and rooting guides. That's what seems to be needed, judging from the recent requests for help I've seen. Do you have any plans to add those in, or should someone make a new companion master thread addressing those needs?Some more minor updates: Changed thread title to reflect upon all users, edited more text, added a new Xoom Heaven placeholder for my sig until I have the time to make one, split the thread into root and non root sections. Still more to come soon! Now with the decison to add in non root sections, I have put a bit more work onto myself.
So there you have it: My big update involves the non root users. I am working on bringing some content to you guys, don't worry. Stay tuned!
Thanks again!
You are the best. Now if we could only get people to look here 1st.Thanks again!
And I do plan on adding in the non-US Xoom rooting guides and such for sure. Sounds like I'll have to try and add those in sooner rather than later. I'll do the best I can.
EDIT: In preparation for them, I have added in sections to the main post for the UK models.
I came across this link to a rooting guide for Euro 3G models:Thanks again!

Glad you like it.
I try my best! I hope I can get people to check here first.
I will be adding this into the main post. Thanks as usual, my friend.
Aww, darn. You could probably use a donation as well huh?If I weren't also a college student, I would donate something...but you know, expenses and such
Anyway, thank you for the thread. As a soon-to-be Xoom owner (recently turned away from the 10.1 because of oil slick issues and I hate having one port for every function), this was exactly what I was looking for.
This section of the forums will hopefully be up one more member and the general section is down exactly 1 stupid noob question for people to complain about.
I clicked the "thanks" button. Frankly, everyone should
And it's good to know that this would be useful to you, see as though you are joining the Xoom side. Sweet! I'm adding that in right now. Thanks!
Here's another recommended app that requires root: it's kind of a one stop for all your system tinkering.Thread update, finally! I have updated the Euro section for rooting, edited some text like always, and have now added a nice new app list section that does not require root. Quite a few apps on that list, and I will continue to add in more when I can.
Still more to come! Thanks!
