Isn't it ironic that when I go to motorola.com/Xoom to read about getting flash for my Xoom I can't see it because their website REQUIRES flash?

The additional info available from Motor says that Flash will be a Market download and more info is coming very soon.

I read that from the article but ironic nonetheless.

I wonder if this patch will allow the 10.1 XDA workaround to work now hmmm...

I suppose all update announcements will come from motorola and not google even though this is pure honeycomb?

So can you get update if you never activated your device?

 

[marctronixx]

yes you can download it over wifi.

 

[jokeefe10]

has anyone actually received the update? i know a few people with xooms and no one has received it yet

 

[tjreishus]

Is there a way to force it to check for the update. Mine says that the last check was done about 6 hours ago.

 

[howarmat]

i looked and couldnt find it last night

 

[tjreishus]

Its rebooting now. I'll edit if I find anything different about it

 

[tjreishus]

If there is anything you want me to check out, let me know

 

[tjreishus]

I shows up as 3.0.1 now in settings > about tablet

 

[howarmat]

flash installed?

 

[tjreishus]

No its not. From other sources it looks like it will be out on the 18th of March. One week away.

 

[howarmat]

yeah i figured but was thinking it might get slipped in lol

 

[tjreishus]

Would have been nice.

I feel like scrolling on websites are smoother than they were. Unfortunately, I don't have anything to compare it too. If someone has access to two xooms, could you compare browser scrolling with one before and one after the update?

Just got the update. It's a shame that it didn't include the enabling of the SD card slot.

 

[melantus]

has anyone made another attempt at the 10.1 flash XDA work around that failed before. Kinda curious if we can get flash 10.1 for week before 10.2

I don't have two xooms to compare but scrolling seems smoother. Some websites would have to re-render the images after scrolling but not anymore. Could be a coincidence but I don't think so.

I got the update but I'm not really sure what it did. Did it just prep the Xoom for flash?
