Motorola Xoom :: Honeycomb Is Actually A Gingerbread With Custom UI?
May 21, 2011
"Honeycomb isn't actually built from the ground up and that it is just a shell running on top of Android 2.3 (Gingerbread). To reveal Gingerbread on a Honeycomb tablet, all you have to do is change the LCD density to 170 or higher, and after a reboot you'll end up with the Gingerbread UI on your phone. The same lockscreen, launcher, and even app list will be on the tablet. Resetting the LCD density to 160 or lower and Honeycomb returns after a reboot" url...

I have had my DX2 for roughly three weeks, and for the most part, aside from some testing issues, it has been pretty good.With all of the information I've been reading, the OTA rollout of Gingerbread came out to the X1, but not the 2.That said, when are the updates going to come out for the 2? the fact that the companies are taking care of the earlier phone models, showing reward for loyalty, but the individuals who upgraded to the newest hardware are stuck waiting.Does anyone know when, or if we are getting the next OS?Are we moving directly to Honeycomb?I moved to a newer phone in lieu of rooting my DROID phone, and I'm happy that I did, but I am getting a little impatient.Also, I have no exposure to MOTOBLUR.Does my phone have it? Is it something I have to download? I've heard mixed reviews, but I would like to make the determination myself.

I was playing Words with Friends yesterday in the country with little 3G and no wi fi coverage. The Word wouldn't send. Hours later at home it still wouldn't send and then the Xoom wouldn't turn off until I pushed the volume up button as well as the turn off/on button. The it just wouldn't turn on again. It's frozen on the M Dual Core Technology opening screen. I let it run out of battery, but it has made no difference. I hate the idea of a factory re-set- all that data lost.

Every now and again, I miss an email in the non-gmail inbox. As well, I usually notice that I've gotten a duplicate alert for an already seen email. Example: Today I had a fedex confirmation from 10:30 come through at 3, for which I had already read two emails newer. The fedex email was not at the top of the stack, it was unread in the third slot.

This will be our official thread to capture all issues related to the Android (Honeycomb) 3.2 update. While this update has only rolled out to the WiFi-only population thus far, we will use this thread for issues on ANY Xoom device going forward. That way we can keep redundant threads to a minimum and share issues where everyone can help verify and find alternate solutions (if possible). This will also allow Motorola to review issues have surfaced, look for potential hardware conflicts and pass along common systemic problems to Google.
This thread does NOT replace making reports to Google directly, that would still be recommended for issues that have been confirmed.Make certain your profile is updated to show what Xoom you are using Check to see if your issue already exists in this thread and please do NOT make a duplicate post, just provide additional details if your situation is different.Search the forums for any past issues that are similar and if found - update the older threads instead (moves them to the top of the forum list)Provide all necessary details about the issue (how to make it happen, what issues it causes, what you tried to resolve it, etc.)Include any other apps you are running at the same time that might affect the situation. If possible, test your issue with no other apps running on the Xoom.Please do not assuma anything is a "defect" unless declared by Google or an App's developer;Provide any workarounds you have discovered to help other users - this would still be an issue (also update our "tips" thread)Please refrain from making derrogatory comments or personal statements here, let's keep this thread on reporting issues..Always provide updates to your post if you later resolve the issue!

Can anyone provide details or know anything about the tasks app (as in "to do list") that comes with the XYBoard 8.2? In playing around, I actually thinks a really well done app. Simple and clean. I have one screen on my XYBoard with just that widget and have been asking tasks, checking this off, and getting things done. my life is more than just the tablet. I'd like to be able to access to the list from the web and my Bionic. I know there are plenty of task/to do apps out there. I just can't seem to find out what this specific one is and wanted to know if someone could clue me in.Is it native as of Honeycomb 3.2? Was if provided by Moto or Verizon? Or is this one of their hand-picked apps for productivity that came preinstalled.

I want to know why there are no plans to update the DEFY from 2.2 to 2.3
Obviously the phone can handle it, and it will most likely be better then the buggy OS that 2.2 is already. Does anyone else agree that they should have their DEFY updated??

When is it reasonable to expect the X2 to receive the update to Gingerbread not that the Droid X is receiving it in the field? As a consumer I would have expected the newest model of the Motorola family to have been shipped with Gingerbread but seing the old model Droid X receive it before the X2 is a little puzzling.

I have at least 6 XPRT's in my company that users are complaining they turn on by themselves in the middle of the night. This started happening after the Gingerbread update and has happened on phones that I've done a factory reset on. I've had them remove them from the cases to make sure they are pressing on the power button but the problem persists. I've seen some posts from Droid users having had the same problem and one XPRT user on the Sprint forums.
Could it be an app that get's installed. I've confirmed they are shutting them off and not just putting them in "low power" mode.

I was a part of the testing group and could not get my phone updated through that. Now it is officially out and yet again, I cannot update my phone. Here is the problem once again: I plug my phone into my computer and start Motorola Software Update, which is up to date. It says it is going to update the software on my phone. My phone turns off and a screen comes up on my phone saying it is updating the software. A few seconds later it says the update is complete, and my phone reboots exactly the same. I have tried to update my phone like 8-10 times on different computers, etc. and nothing changes.

With froyo I used to plug my phone into the computer, then insert a jpg named albumart.jpg into each music albums folder, along side the songs from the album. This would be recognized by the stock music player. I'm trying to do this now and cannot get it to work.

This morning I was prompted to download & install the new update OTA. I have attempted to do so 4-5 times now. Each time, it completes the download, reboots the phone to start the update, then when the update progress bar is about 1/2 of the way through, an icon with an exclamation point appears & then the update stops. The phone proceeds to boot up like normal. After it finishes booting up it displays a message stating that the update failed.I really would like to NOT have to do a factory reset to my phone just to get the update to install

My car's bluetooth (2011 Honda Odyssey) was working perfectly with my Droid X (which had "FroYo" 2.2 software). Due to problems with my phone, Verizon had me update to the newest software (2.3, called "Gingerbread"). I now cannot pair the Droid with the car. I have called Verizon and Motorola both, who both stated that the most likely culprit was the car. Honda states that it is compatible with "Gingerbread" on newer phones, but not certain if it is on the original Droid, and Motorola has not sent a sample for Honda to test for the original Droid. What do I do? Is there a fix available here? Should I ask Verizon or Motorola to put the previous version, 2.2 or "FroYo" back on my phone?

When I had Froyo Microsoft Exchange syncing was spotty at best. Sometimes the emails would be instant sometime it would take 10-20 minutes for them to sync and it didn't seem to matter whether data push was enabled or not. On my old DX1 GB seemed to fix this issue but now on the DX2 with GB I haven't noticed any improvemnt. Does anyone else run exchange though DX2 and what is your experience, im running SBS 2003 and all other phones on our system ie. windows phones, blackberry and some other phones all seem to work great usually the e-mail shows up in the phone about 30 seconds before the outlook inbox.

Say I have a contact that is a family member and they are on Facebook. How would I link that info with other info such as their phone number so that their profile pic from facebook comes up when I receive a call from them or even a text from them? I had the pics like that show up on my last Droid 2 (before I lost it and received a refurb replacement).

since at&t started pushing gingrbread updates, many users have posted their issues with gingerbread. I have downloaded the updated but fortunatelly (?) have't installed it. I am perfetly hapy with my standard, non-rooted atrix with 2.2 the way it is, no bugs, no issues. However, I am also for the latest and greatest. So, before I install the update i would like to know if there is any way for downgrading back to froyo just in case GB gives me any trouble.
