My new Xoom doesn't find any WiFi network. Where I am currently, there are at least three networks in reach, one of them is completely open. Neither of them shows up on the list of available networks.
If I set up mobile hotspot on Xoom, I can connect other devices via WiFi to Xoom, which leads me to believe hardware is ok.
i would like to use the video chat with google talk but cant find the app in the marketplace. i search for gtalk and find all sorts of stuff but not the real gtalk.
I can not find the Facebook app in the market on my Xoom. When I go to the market on my PC it says the app it's not compatible with the Xoom. I know there are other options like FriendMe but I like to have the regular Facebook app too.
There are times I would like to listen to FM radio - not an internet stream. My android phone has an app called FM Radio but I cannot find a similar app in the Market. Does the Xoom have an FM radio tuner built in? Is there an app to use it?
I added a corp email acct and after several tries it took, or at least i seeemails show up in real time but I cant find them anywhere. My Yahoo email has its own icon but nothing for the corp acct.
does anyone know how to diable to Twonkey app? That by far has to be the most annoying app of all time. If I click on a video to watch, that dosent mean that I want to automatically stream to my network and TV....that is rediculious! Little help, does anyone know how to disable or ot delete it? Its one of those preinstalled apps, so the regular way of delteting do dosent work...
My 3G XOOM (MZ601) is having a small issue since the 3.2 upgrade that if i have the XOOM at home connected to my WiFi, then take it out with me, it refuses to connect/switch to my Mobile network without a restart. Once I have done this it works fine, but it's a bit of a pain having to turn it off and on again every time I leave the house.
We have a new xoom. Last night it connected fine to our network and the internet.Today at the office it is connected to the network, shows an ip address but when I try get on the internet, it just thinks forever and then times out
Traveling with the Xoom wi-fi and it suddenly decided not to connect with open wi-fi networks. Works fine on home network and worked fine on open networks a couple of weeks ago. Now, it sees the network, saves the network but when you tap "OK" to connect nothing happens.
I'm with Shaw Internet and I use their provided router/modem which is located in my room where I'm sitting typing this message. When I go into the Wi-Fi settings on my phone I can't connect to it. (It doesn't even show up on the list.)
I can however see the family router on the list and connect to it. I can connect to the Shaw router/cable modem in my room with my iPhone 3GS. (It displays on the list.)
I've tried to "Add network" > Network SSID / Security > Password etc. But that doesn't work either. It will say "Not in range" which is BS. The router is 10 feet from me.
I've tried to unplug/replug the modem/router to see if it would refresh on the list, but no dice.
I've tried disabling the Wi-Fi on my iPhone 3gs to see if my Razr could see the connection (Figured maybe It's a capacity issue.) But no luck there either.
At the very least I figure it should show on the list. If I take my phone outside I pick up everyone elses network...
I'm trying to find the best option for mobile internet access for my Xoom.I've ordered the D-Link DAP350 to be able to get wifi from wired internet, but am looking for a router that will accept an onlocked 3.5G modem. So, I looked at the CNet CQR-981 that will accept a USB modem (which the DAP350 apparently does not)The problem as I see it is that they all need some form of setting up/driver, and those will not be available for Andriod-or am I missing something? BTW, I've tried tethering my Xoom to my Nokia N8 both with wifi and BT.
I'm having problems with Motorola site every time I try updating my xoom it can't find the page. I can't find software page, also where do you go update os 3.2 gingerbread?
Ever since I got my Xoom back from the 4G upgrade I have a problem with no internet access and generally a restart seems to wake it up. is anyone else experiencing thisIt might be my routine combined with geographic locations at specific times (e.g., commutting.)
My Xoom2 is connected to internet by celullar network and network coverage are doesn't strong enought to keep my device online every where. (Subway, B1 floor etc.) Here is the thing; every time, when the device loose network or catch back, it on the screen (like as tap power button) and wait 2 minutes (which is my set) then screen goes off. Which is increasing my battery consumption and sort of meaningless reaction. How could i get over it?
I have a US WiFi only Xoom with a weird network issue. Whenever I leave it at home when I go to work, I come back to a gray wifi indicator. I'm still connected to my router and can access things internal to my network (like my Sonos system or router), but can't get to anything external (such as pinging an IP address or doing a DNS lookup).
The phone does not load properly and can not connect to the mobile operator's network when switched on, if it was off with the included Wi-Fi. When you turn on an error. Moreover, in Russia, this error is only at the largest operator - MTS. Replacing the SIMcard does not work?
I have noticed that the WIFI- Network Notification ( Notify me when an open network is available) is ticked after the 3.1 updateI am presuming this means its always looking for a open network and chewing up power doing so.To save some battery, and alien networks, untick the boxUnless you ok with open network hunting and shorter battery life.
I have a 6 week old ZOOM WiFi which in the last week has started to endlessly reboot when attempting to connect to my home network. It stops rebooting when Wi-Fi is turned off. When WiFi is turned back on, the rebooting starts again. Before I realised what was causing the reboot, I restored it to factory settings, and this seemed to work for a few days. No apps have been downloaded since then. I have tried a soft reboot without success.
My Xoom post upgrade to 4G is now assigning the IP address of 192.168.20.1 to the device usb1 everytime it is rebooted. This apparently hardwired configuration conflicts with my homenetwork's default gateway.Is there anyway to change this with out rooting the device? I would rather not have to re-IP my home network or not be able to connect to any network via Wifi who uses that IP address as a default gateway.
I prefer to hide my wireless SSID but when I do this my android devices don't see the network. Even if I am already connected with my Xoom then switch to hidden SSID mode the Xoom disconnects. Same for my HTC Thunderbolt. My network is shown in the list of remembered networks as out of range. When in hidden mode. This does not affect my laptops.
They stay connected if I switch to hidden mode and they have a setting to connect to hidden networks that have previously been configured. I cannot find a setting for hidden network support on either android device. Hiding the SSID is not a new concept. Is this not supported in the android network stack? I have a strong random PW on my wifi so I am not terribly worried about it but I would be nice to have the option.
I recently purchased a Motorola Xoom and i've been trying a couple of different apps for Twitter on my Xoom the regular Twitter app doesn't seem to work for me on my Xoom and the Tweetdeck App doesn't move or turn on all screens when i move my Xoom.
I am using 32GB microSD card. If I connect my Xoom to my PC and transfer files, as soon as I reach 4GB utilized storage on the SD card, all files gets disappeared, and moved into the LOST.DIR (renamed).If I unmount the card, put it into my PC, and copy files to it, as soon as I mount this SD in my Xoom all files that were copied to the SD after it reached 4GB in utilized storage, they just get deleted (nothing in the LOST.DIR). Even if I will mark these files as Read-Only they still get deleted.
i tryed playin a video i filmed before 3.1 update and now it wont play....i also tryed taking a picture and i cant see the preview on the screen....but when i press the shooter it takes the picture...but the screen is black completly.
I got the 3.2 upgrade for my 3G Xoom a week or so ago; I understood that when the upgrade came, it would work with SD cards just like the WiFI-only Xoom upgrade. Today I stuck a SanDisk micro SD into the slot, and I got an option in "Settings" to mount the SD, but it won't mount. Neither will computer (Vista OS) recognize an SD, nor will it create a Xoom Media section in computer file explorer when Xoom is connected by USB as the Motorola help site describes; all I get is the original Xoom folder that I had pre-3.2.
I was wondering if there is something I have to turn on to get the Xoom to recognize USB devices? When I plug in any USB device it doesn't even power up much less get recognized.
