Xoom MZ601 Tablet - Install CWM-Recovery (under Linux)

Step 1:

Setup your Xoom to enable “USB Debugging”, found Settings -> Applications -> Development

Step 2:

Install Android SDK.

Step 3:

Reboot into “Fastboot” mode, by holding down the “Volume Down” button while you press the "Power Button". You will see the Text "Fastboot" in the first line of the Tabletscreen.

Step 4:

Change to the Directory where the fastboot binary from the SDK is installed.

Run fastboot oem unlock to unlock the Bootloader.

Step 5:

Download the ClockworkMod Recovery ROM from here and copy it to the same directory where the fastboot binary is located.

Step 6:

Flash the ClockworkMod Recovery ROM with following command:

fastboot flash recovery recovery-clockwork-4.0.0.4-stingray.img

Step 7:

Now enter “Recvoery Mode”, by pressing “Volume Down” about 2 seconds after DualCore Motorola logo is on the screen. Choose “Recovery Mode” by pressing “Volume Down”, then press “Volume Up”.

Step 8:

Select "Backup and Restore" from Menue by changing to it with the "Volume Up/Down"  and select it with the Power Button.

Flash blob on ASUS Transformer 101(G)

1. Download latest firmware from asus (TF101)
2. Unzip using ES File Explorer (you will have another zip)
3. Unzip blob from extracted zip to /sdcard
4. Download Terminal Emulator
5. Open Terminal Emulator and switch to root

su

6. Ran the dd-command:

dd if=/sdcard/blob of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p4

7. Ran the sync-command (not required as it only syncs filesystems and no block devices, but it feels good to do)

sync;sync

8. Wait two minutes (should not be needed either)
9. Shutdown the device
10. Boot the device. you will see a progress bar.

Depending on the ROM you previously used, the transformer might be able to boot. 

It will take feeled 15 min. to be able to log in ;-)

If it does not boot, don't worry:

- Hold down the minus-volume button (down) when booting
- Wait till the message about cold-boot appears
- Re-press Down to switch the icon from Android to 'WIPE DATA'-icon.
- Press Up and Press Up again to confirm.

Even if your transformer did boot fine, without wiping, I do recommend a factory reset (via method above or via settings).

Be aware that this will erase all your data, also on the internal sdcard. External SD-card will not be touched.
