Root Motorola Xoom + ClockWorkMod windows mode

I am not responsible for any damage to your Tablet. So at your own risk. In this guide I will explain how to root and install clockworkmod. on motorola xoom.

The requirements are:

  • Motorola Xoom
  • MicroSD
  • universal root downloadable here.
  • Recovery Tiamat RC4 (cwm) downloadable here.
  • ADB and fastbook enabled

First install the Java JDK at this link:

Then download and install the Android JDK at this link: java SE > JDK

first of all, adb and fastbook must be in the same folder, so if you don’t find it, copy the fastboot.exe file (on windows 7 64bit fastbook.exe is located in C:\Program Files (x86)\Android\android-sdk\tools) in the folder where adb is located (on windows 7 64bit fastbook is located in C:\Program Files (x86)\Android\android-sdk\platform-tools)

Let’s start: connect the Motorola Xoom to the PC with debugging enabled to enable debugging, go to Settings>Applications>Development and check USB debugging

Unlock the Motorola Xoom adb reboot bootloader fastboot oem unlock fastboot reboot

flash recovery: copy the flash recovery file recovery-Tiamat-R4c-100611-1150-cwm.img to C:\Program Files (x86)\Android\android-sdk\platform-tools

adb reboot bootloader fastboot flash recovery recovery-Tiamat-R4c-100611-1150-cwm.img fastboot reboot

When it restarts, reconnect the Xoom to the PC and type: adb reboot recovery

The Xoom will reboot in CWM recovery mode and from now on you can flash the Universal root previously loaded on the SD.

To load any ROM, go into recovery mode and then: “install zip from sdcard” -> “Choose zip from sdcard” (remember to do a wipe before flashing, if requested)
