However, I just have this thing with pwning Motorola Also, I would like to thank Roach from the Transformer team for breaking the back of the smali roadblock. Also, I have to thank Dr1337 from #xoom for making me double check the MediaProvider.apk manifest I hope you guys enjoy this rom. Be sure to read the change log and follow all instuctions when flashing. Thanks

EPIC features

• SDCARD SUPPORT. Now you are able to unmount, mount, format your sdcards on the fly with this rom. Simply unmount the sdcard by pressing on the sdcard logo in the notification area, and hitting the disconnect button (to the far right). Your sdcard is also now mounted under /Removable/MicroSD
• USB OTG (On The Go) support. Your usb drives will now be mounted automatically under /Removable/USBdisk1
• Android media services scan both internal and MicroSD for media (Gallery, Music, etc)
• Fast boot times. Your boot times are simply amazing with this rom!
• Storage controls in the notification area and in the settings menu!

Important Notes : A MUST READ

• You must perform a wipe before installing this rom unless you are currently running the beta we released.
• If you're on a EURO 3G device, please note that this rom should install the correct build.prop for you, but you will still need to backup & push your telephony databases. See here.

Installation Instructions

Prerequisites: Clockworkmod Recovery (Recovery 3.2.0.0 R4C is still reccomended) and a MicroSD card for installation.

2. Download the 1.1 Rom, and place it on your external sdcard
3. Restart into Recovery
4. Perform a nandroid backup, and keep this safe!
5. Perform a factory reset within recovery (Wipe data / factory reset)

Changelog

Version 1.1

• Storage framework completely overhauled based on Transformer Rom Prime 1.5 (thanks Roach)
• System now gives storage control thru status bar icon and in Settings / Storage
• Unmount MicroSD, remove, put in another one for working Hot Swap
• Automatically mount USB Host storage (unmount still broke do to borked vold.fstab)
• All Android media services scan both internal and MicroSD for media (Gallery, Music, etc)
• new native Transformer file explorer accessable thru status bar to explore all mounted storage
• Unfortunately, USB Mass Storage is still broke. (It's turning out to be far more complex than it should be)
• Entire rom re-signed with test key due to manifest changes for storage port. All services work 100% (Google music beta, Market, etc)
• Implemented a variety of init.d scripts with "Tiamat Control" flags
• Enable features by moving flags (/data/tiamat_controls) in or out of "unused" folder
• Enable or diasble charging light while device on
• Enable or disable logging for better battery life
• sysctl memory tweak
• Cron service enabled for time based scripts (put Cron scripts in /data/cron)
• Rom zip-aligned on boot (still insanely fast boot time)
• Included up-to-date Maps.apk and Video.apk
• Removed bloatware (Cordy.apk, dungeondefenders.apk, and stingrayquickoffice.apk)
• Changed back to mostly stock icons
• Removed the charging percent text from the pull up settings.
• When charging, it will now alternate between the battery percentage in the middle and a charging symbol.

Version 1.0 - Update 3 (Busybox fix)

• Fixed the dependency that the ramdisk had on busybox, specifically run-parts.

Version 1.0 - Update 2 (charging light)

• Enabled the led charging light in the ramdisk as per popular request.

Version 1.0 - 3g fix

• Fixed permissions in /system/bin. This was causing issues with 3g connections.
• Replaced framework-res.apk with a less modified version. There is no SIP calling and sms now, but the activation screens work now.

Tips

Turning the charging light off

Using root explorer, or other file manager that gives you enough control, move the "enableChargingLight" file in /data/tiamat_controls into the directory /data/tiamat_controls/not_in_use

Automatically installing applications when you flash the rom:

In the zip file, under the directory "data" there is a directory called "tiamat_first_boot_install". You can place all of your apk files that you want installed when you first boot in there. This is useful for applications such as Thumb Keyboard and Titanium Backup

Thank You For Supporting Team Tiamat!

Welcome Xoomers! Here is my little spot where you may find all sorts of Tiamat goodies that, for whatever reason, didn't make the release rom. Also, you may find my own tips, trick, even some Official Tiamat Xoom Rom Art. Stop by from time to time!

Tiamat Xoom Rom v1.1 Mod Pack 1

Tiamat Xoom Rom v1.1 Mod Pack 1 Change Log

Added "Native Screenshot"!

You can now take screenshots with your Xoom. Enable the feature in Settings / Display. To take a screenshot, press and hold the "Recent Apps" button for about 4 seconds. You will get a popup indicating the shot was taken and asking if you would like to keep the service running. The shots can be found in /sdcard/screenshot.

Added "Power Button Reboot Options"

I grabbed this from my buddy Roach`, developer of Prime!1.5 Rom for Transformer. Although i plan on further enhancing this feature, it works for now Press and hold the Power button. Your menu will give the opportunity to power down or reboot into recovery or cancel. It's not bad for first time around. Later, we will have a full featured Shutdown Menu.

Added "Maps won't update" fix

Sorry about that one guys. And yes, to whoever posted it, I should have put Maps.apk in data/app. You get 10 Tiamat Points! Ok. This simply removes Maps.apk from system/app and installs the updated Maps.apk in data/app.

Added "Swype won't download" fix

Changes Browser UAString in framework-res.apk from modded Desktop default to Mobile default. This is needed to download Swype from their network. Install Mod Pack 1 first and reboot. Then go back into recovery and flash the Swype fix. One you have Swype up and running. Go back into recovery and flash Mod Pack 1 again if you wish to return to Desktop default UAString. If you wish to stay on Mobile default, no further action is needed.

Downloads

Download Tiamat Xoom Rom v1.1 Mod Pack 1

Download Default Browser UAString Swype Fix

NOTE: I apologize to themers out there, but this pack does contain a modified framework-res.apk. I had to add some strings for the reboot mod. You should be able to get away with just grabbing the resources.arcs and dropping into you're themed fw-res.

Here we go again!

[Bazar6]

Yea but it sounds like the next version won't be out as quickly as this was, especially with 3.2 possibly coming soon. I know I'm glad to hear that lol

[Sardo Numspa]

dang, cant access multiupload from work.

[jblalock77]

Yep. Flashing = Fun, wiping not so much... (That just sounds wrong. )

[Sardo Numspa]

whats the deal with the CRT animation? i have tiamat rom 1.0 now and havent seen this at all.

[Bazar6]

The CRT was always in 1.0. You had to be in portrait mode when powering off the screen for it to work properly. I'm still downloading, is it in landscape as well?

[Sardo Numspa]

i dont know, i could never get it to work and always wondered what it was. thats why i was asking.

[jblalock77]

This version shouldn't require a 3G fix for VZW unit, or am I reading it wrong?

[Bazar6]

O. Yea hold it in portrait, turn off the screen and you'll see the CRT. For me it was a hit or miss in landscape, not sure why it's so finicky. It's just an extra to the bells/whistles.
