Are you getting Netflix on an unrooted, and unmodded TF? I still don't see the app in the Market.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] knoxploration:
Thanks for the confirmation, had a feeling it might've been, but I guess I've never looked at it during the noon hour before...
[Eee Pad Transformer General] vicw:
Try a Refresh on the widget. It cleared up for me when I did that jus now, but that's no guarantee it won't be truncatd later. Maybe it was actually fixed, though.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] johnblaze00:
when i download the latest update it downloads fine but then when it reboots and starts to unpack i get the exclaimation mark in a triangle happening. Could this be because mine is root? I did the pure root method and the last two updates came in no problem for me.

I am in canada if that makes a difference.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] KaylordTheuZ:
argh! Update found via OTA, but at reboot the green android freezes with an exclamation mark... after reboot the previous firmware version has been restored but actually no fw update can be found anymore :'(

I used brk's pure root to root my tablet and install CWM at the time of 3.1 release; when OTA for 3.2 became available, i reverted the device back to stock always using brk's script. In that situation I did then the 3.2 update via FOTA without any problem... so what can be went wrong this time? Any help/suggestion please?

Thanks :)
[Eee Pad Transformer General] knoxploration:
I wasn't referring to the truncation bug, I've seen that a million times. (Never seen a refresh fix it though, only a reboot.)

I was referring to a new bug I'd never noticed before, which is that noon is referred to as "PM 00:00", not "12:00 PM". (I'd noticed the awkward placement of the AM/PM indicator, but not that noon is referred to as the zero hour, rather than the traditional midnight.)
[Eee Pad Transformer General] johnblaze00:
i am having the same problem :(
[Eee Pad Transformer General] nokianich:
NETFLIX works for me, had to find apk file still not on Market
[Eee Pad Transformer General] blabox:
Me too, after reboot the update is not applied :(
[Eee Pad Transformer General] KaylordTheuZ:
Seems we're not just in two, many rooted devices have the problem. What's strange in my case is that I previously restored the stock version (3.1), then updated via OTA to 3.2 and worked like a charm... don't understand why this time it didn't work :confused:

Anyway, I was thinking if downloading the firmware from Asus site and flash via their software can do the job... i've seen that the newest version is not available yet on the Asus site. If everything goes smooth then we could retry the latest update via FOTA.

What do you guys think about? Could this be a solution?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] aburgthing:
Unrooted user here. Got the firmware update this afternoon. It does fix my biggest gripe, the compass "figure eight dance". Guess I'm going to have to get a Wii now to finish my workouts :).

Edit: Never rooted so as not to confuse with the problems of previously rooted users.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] stuntdouble:
If anyone reads this who has a stock B7 or B8 unit, and has updated with the latest update (8.6.5.9), and you COULD go into APX mode BEFORE the update, can you please check to see if your unit can still go into APX mode and report back here, thanks.

Likewise if anyone out there with a TF101G model has applied the latest update (8.6.6.10), and can also check APX mode it would be appreciated.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Dr. Clavan:
In The Netherlands we have the SKU version WW and not TB.

Maybe that can be changed in The first post.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Abominabel:
Netflix

I can confirm also that netflix is working (for me) after today's new firmware update. I've had my TF since Aug 1st and haven't rooted or messed with anything. I couldn't find it in the market so I found the latest apk elsewhere (not sure which version though).
[Eee Pad Transformer General] jaytman7:
You have to search google for "netflix android apk". There are many websites with the link posted. XDA Netflix Post contains a link to Netflix 1.3 apk which I used.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] linuxrebel:
One more thing that todays update fixed.

With the update suddenly the SD card reader in my dock is working. Lost root, need to revert that part ;)
[Eee Pad Transformer General] knoxploration:
What wasn't working for you before? The SD card reader in my dock has always worked fine...
[Eee Pad Transformer General] craig540:
I lost my headphone audio with the 3.2 update and was hoping this update would fix it but it didn't. I guess I will try a reset.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] vicw:
I'd swear I've seen the PM 00 thing, too. In any case, I noticed tonight that the tmp reading at the bottom of the widget was clipped below. I discarded the widget and reloaded it, similar to what we do with new versions of beautiful widget, and it's looking OK, at least for now. They'll get this right eventually.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] grenademasta:
Becareful with these jammers because they are illegal for use in the US. Most of those jammers are made in China and anyone can order one from places like Dealextreme.com. The fine for using a phone jammer is $11,000 and one year in jail. Ever since they got Homeland Security involved in this law, I wouldn't challenge it or risk it.

How many times do you see in the news about kids or adults shining a $3 laser pointer at a plane or police helicopter only to have the police come into your house, arrest you, and charge you for a felony? Ignorance of the law is no excuse. Feds don't care they just want their numbers in arrest and prosecution and make examples of people.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] magicdave26:
i think your replying to a spambot :-) B-)
[Eee Pad Transformer General] craig540:
The update didn'thelp, any other ideas besides rma.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] frankenbike:
Unrooted. Updated doc and tablet OTA.

Netflix now works after running the .apk

...and something no one has mentioned: AD HOC WIFI NOW WORKS!
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Wybo:
Again no OTA update for me. Since my first RMA (out of 3) i never got an OTA update. I had always wait for the zip file from Asussite. I did not root my pad and tried everything mentioned in first post. (besides mailing Asus)
[Eee Pad Transformer General] case0:
Something tells me mine went wrong, have had 2 system crashes now and the browser keeps screwing up too. Think I might have to restore to factory and try and update again..
[Eee Pad Transformer General] htc6500uk:
So, what is the general view about the chances of bricking my UK stock Transformer when applying the latest update - I already updated the 19th April but am worried by some of the reports on the 26th April update.

If I thought I could get the tablet replaced easily, I would be happier to risk the update but since it seems likely that there will be a shortage in the UK until June, I'm a bit reluctant to update but would like the improved video performance.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] stuntdouble:
If you are from the USA I'd say hold off on the 2nd update, as in another thread there are several people claiming its bricked their devices. Watch this space for more info.

If you have already taken the first update then I dont think you can root your device until some clever person manages to update the method for doing so. Signature checking is enabled once you do the first one, which means it starts to check for the correct file versions when you try to install. Currently there's no method to get around this once you've updated.

Ok I've just re-read what I typed and it's as clear as mud but I'm too tired to re-type it. Hope you got it. :)

@htc6500uk

If I hadn't done it already and I'd read the problem thread, I'd still be crazy enough to try to update. The video recording is now smooth as silk, and the quality has also improved.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] case0:
Actually bumbledroid has found a new method for those who've got the ota applied but he said he was releasing it on the 30th :)
[Eee Pad Transformer General] stuntdouble:
Haha ok forget what I said then. I read somewhere that there was a forced update system. As in... if it's downloaded the update to your device, you have 3 days or 3 reboots (whichever is soonest) to reject the update, before it does it automatically? I read that somewhere, but it might have been someone pulling somebody else's leg. Having not waited that long myself I'm unsure if its true or not.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] case0:
Nah after my 3 postpones were up I just pressed the back or home button everytime it asked me after that. Maybe that's why mine seems to have gone a bit wrong, don't see how though :S
[Eee Pad Transformer General] stuntdouble:
It's a conspiracy I tells ya. :D
[Eee Pad Transformer General] SlimDan22:
My Transformer came today, it comes with the March build

Im not sure if i update if i will get both OTA's or the first then the second
[Eee Pad Transformer General] seshmaru:
it's strange, my transformer shows the first update build but has none of the apps that got updated. Also I haven't been prompted for an update yet.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] brachiopod:
Pardon my ignorance, but how do we tell which update we have gotten? I'm in the US, and got my TF today. It did one OTA update. I have the mycloud application installed and it appears to work. My build number ends in "20110423", is that the first or the second update?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] czm:
That is the same build number as mine and I have applied both updates.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] curti.nogg:
Sounds like the original Zune when sharing music. ;)

Sent from my Captivate
[Eee Pad Transformer General] stuntdouble:
It seems that there are slightly different versions of the updates for different countries. Asus appear to be putting out different regional apps. That doesnt mean you might not get them though.

If you check the screenshots in the first post, it shows you have update 2 installed.

Ha yeah I had one of those Zune 30gb ones a while ago. Didnt know anyone over here who had one to use that feature though. :(
[Eee Pad Transformer General] tineras:
Question about rooting/updating

I have a question to clear things up. Is it true that there is currently no way to root the device if you have the first update installed? Is it also true that there is no way to root if you have the second update installed?

My device came with the first update installed, but I have not yet installed the second.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] cpalmer98:
I hear theres one in the works which will be available in the next couple of days.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] seshmaru:
There is a new root method, it just hasn't been released yet since they're checking to see if OTA2 breaks it.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Pantoufle:
Does anyone got an update on,... the update? :)
[Eee Pad Transformer General] stuntdouble:
I've updated the main post with much clearer screenshots. Sorry that they were so crap before, I hadn't realised they were so small. ...Enjoy. :D
[Eee Pad Transformer General] HideYoKids:
Does anyone else still have lag issues while playing HQ Youtube video through their app? I just got the Transformer yesterday and all the videos I've tried through their app have been laggy on HQ + fullscreen.

Is it my individual unit? Or is anyone else having this issue?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] RMXO:
I got my TF yesterday & I accidently upgraded to the latest OTA. Will I be able to root or will I have to wait for a solution.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Canadoc:
Same here. Noticed I am on us 8.6.5.7. Don't even see that listed as one of fw
[Eee Pad Transformer General] brk:
same thing with me. even tryed to return to sock but no update available either.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] raphaelc:
about the latest update : France

I'm in France and I got the OTA firmware update last night (tablet and dock). I have also noticed a change (not in the list) in the browser : the scroll cursor isn't round anymore, it seems rectangular now.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] knoxploration:
You *are* triggering an update check manually, right? It only happens occasionally by default, so it can take a while for updates to arrive if you don't do a manual check.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] knoxploration:
Found a new bug in the current firmware, have seen it happen two or three times so far:

If I start typing in a form field too soon after a browser page first loads, the physical dock keyboard acts as if I was holding down the shift button (even though I'm not). Letters appear in all caps with the caps lock off, and the backspace key acts as a delete key instead. If I make myself wait a second or two after the page load completes, this doesn't happen.

The times this have happened to me, the text box has already contained content (quoted text, whatever). It's possible this may be related to the problem, as I've never yet seen it happen with an empty text box.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] marcmarshall:
I just received an update for the tablet and the another for the dock. Tablet is now ...-20110816 and dock is EP101-0213
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Canadoc:
Yes manual check. Tried the cache clearing trick and reboot too. No luck.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] s.zamani:
CHANGLOG

It seems to me most people use this thread for there troubleshoot questions after FOTA but as the Title states I hoped to see CHANGELOG of FOTAs

I relay would appreciate if we could back to CHANGELOGS and open an own thread for troubleshooting.

s.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] knoxploration:
Read the first post. The latest (user-generated) change log is always there.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] knoxploration:
FYI, there's still bugs in the wifi in the latest FOTA. This morning when I brought my TF out of sleep, it was permanently stuck in a "WiFi disconnecting" state, greyed out, with no way to disable or reenable wifi. Stayed like this for several minutes; I had to completely power the tablet off and reboot to get wifi working again.

I've seen this before once or twice in older firmware, just wanted to flag it as still being a current issue.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] stuntdouble:
If all you do is read the last few posts of a thread, you're missing out on a lot of info on these forums. You might want to start at the beginning. ;)

Thanks as always Knox for reporting the issues. Unfortunately our list is getting longer with each release rather than shorter.

Still can't believe they've not released a selectable profile to fix the speaker balance issue after all this time. I know not all units have this issue but there's still a fair few units out there that do. Fed up of having to root each time just to fix it myself. :( /rant
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Caelte:
The update has beeen pushed to DE devices today. Same build version and driver versions as on the other devices.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] knoxploration:
Glad to help. I don't experience the speaker issue on either of my tablets, but I can see how that would be frustrating if I did.

Credit where it's due to Asus though, this last update fixed quite a few issues, especially getting the browser typing lag down significantly. It's the first update which I've really felt significantly happier after installing. :-)
[Eee Pad Transformer General] EP2008:
For the first time since owning the TF, I can now say that I have wifi issues... the last update also broke my battery meter, which shows a "?" off and on all day...

I also experienced an auto-restart as I was typing an email... not cool.

My SOD issue has also become significantly worse, and I've experienced it 3 times since the update was pushed in North America.

:( Not a happy camper.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] daoist:
In the 8.6.5.9 update where is the keyboard on/off switch? I'm not seeing it.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] knoxploration:
Albeit only a sample size of two units (16GB and 32GB), but I'm not seeing any of these issues, except a single wifi lockup. Stock firmware? Rooted? Tried wiping and reinstalling from scratch? Using any particularly unusual apps? Talked to Asus to see if maybe you have a hardware issue? (The battery thing in particular sounds odd.)
[Eee Pad Transformer General] stuntdouble:
Plug into dock. Find any app where you can type into a box and open it up (e.g. browser search page). Click the box so you can input text. Tap little keyboard icon in notification bar. 'Use physical keyboard' on/off option is in there.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] shremi:
Thanks finally i can watch some netflix :)
[Eee Pad Transformer General] craig540:
I have a new replacement and it updated once but I still have 3.1

And when I try to check for a update it says I have one downloaded and to check the notification. Can I just install 8.6.5.9.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] haupman:
I sent my tablet in for RMA and it came back with this version also. I think the server is not allowing us to update because we have this version rather than 8.6.5.6. Did you ever have any luck?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] fredrick90005:
what the heck. afer the last Firmware update, my track pad is no longer working. i tried using the on/off button from the keyboard. Nothing. Now i cannot see my cursor. Keyboard works but Trackpad not working. The DOCK made a FIrmware update too, but after the update track pad is one. HELP!!!
[Eee Pad Transformer General] marcmarshall:
I would try a cold reboot. If that didn't work I would try downloading the firmware and manually installing it again. After that I suppose it would be a factory reset.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] FacSBe:
allmost no need to root

The update was a succes, wifi AD HOIC works fine, now a backup for the system to SD and then is no need to root.:rolleyes:

Stock TB.

Transformer 32GB with dock.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] xiophyte:
Same thing happened to me after an RMA. I emailed Asus and they told me that the firmware was still able to receive OTA. I never received OTA update so i simply donwloaded it from the ASUS TW FTP site and flashed it manually. The update went well and now i'm on 8.6.5.9.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Kermode:
This also added the ability for wifi to connect on channels 12 and 13 - previously it could only see up to wifi channel 11.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] jimbob1971:
I've yet to receive the update of the 23rd here in the UK. The tables upgrade section says there is an upgrade available, and I should check notifications, yet nothing is there, and the upgrade button is greyed out. Any ideas?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] stuntdouble:
Charge the tablet up.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] jimbob1971:
It is at 86% charge, dock has 33%.

Still says there is an update, check notifications, but there is nothing in the notification tray.

I ended up grabbing it from the site and updating manually. It looks like there is a bug in the update code.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] ryanmc2033:
cannot update

My tablet tells me their is an update, but when I click to install it reboots and just gives me a screen with a green android and a triangle with exclamation mark. I am rooted, but running the stock 3.2. Anyone have suggestions?

I tried downloading the update from asus and update manually, but that did not work either.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Nascar Dog:
Is your TF rooted? :eek:
[Eee Pad Transformer General] ondoy1943:
I think your best bet is to unroot the tf101 first, let the fota do its thing, then root again, if you need it.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] nurre:
So annoying.. I haven't gotten a update notification since I bought the device. It's stock and not rooted. I've done manual updates ages after everyone else has gotten em (aka when they show up on the ftp). And I'm still waiting for 8.6.6.10 :/
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Xx_xBLADEx_xX:
I just bought the 32GB tablet and tethered to my phone and automatically it started to download the new firmware update. If I update this will it allow me to root still? I have postponed it for 1 day then it asked me again a few minutes later and now I only have one left. I don't want to update it if I can't root it afterwords.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] sontin:
I noticed yesterday that with one of the latest updates android is showing the battery status of the dock in the notification bar. :eek:
[Eee Pad Transformer General] knoxploration:
Screenshot / firmware version? I'm on the latest US firmware and don't have any new dock battery status indication in the notification bar...
[Eee Pad Transformer General] nurre:
Gah, still no 8.6.6.10 manual update :/. My stock transformer hasn't gotten a single auto update since I bought it :/
[Eee Pad Transformer General] volcomnator999:
got an update tonight....charging my asus right now to 15%....will report after

[Eee Pad Transformer General] jaytman7:
I have a US eee pad and can confirm a FOTA 8.6.5.13-20110925

Kernel 2.6.36.3 android@Mercury#1

BT V6.24

WiFi V5.2.63

Android 3.2.1

I'm really enjoying playing with SuperNote, I find this a lot more useful than Polaris Office although I will continue to use Polaris until my co-workers learn that MS Word blows. Anyone know where I can get a stylus that will work with the transformers screen?

I also now have a separate icon for ASUS Web Storage. I never signed up for it so I have no idea if there is increased functionality.

Netflix still does not show up in the Market. My installed apk still works, but getting the update notification every time I open Netflix is getting really annoying.

Google Maps updated itself as soon as I performed the upgrade, might be a completely unrelated update though.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] gnufabio:
Could you upload it? Find it out from /sdcard/ASUS/Update...I need it, thanks
[Eee Pad Transformer General] demod_oz:
Sorry I looked before applying but I couldn't find it. Then had to apply.

On another note, am I the only person on earth that does not have spell checking while using the dock?

stuntdouble, is that something you can add to the "things to fix" list? (if it isn't only me)
[Eee Pad Transformer General] faxe3:
Some of the improvements/changes:
[Eee Pad Transformer General] theares2014:
Doesnot reboot after updating - have to reboot manually. Any reason???
[Eee Pad Transformer General] knoxploration:
Quick test with today's new firmware. Typing lag is maybe slightly better in XDA, but there's still definitely some lag remaining. It's usable, just about, though.

Splashtop and PressReader still haven't been updated, and are now three months out of date.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] DingieM:
There is no update in Holland for the latest version. I have NOT rooted and just bought nrmaly in holland somewhere in june.

Why is there no update?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] zer0cloud:
I'm having serious with downloading ota update. I have kernel 2.6.36.3 clemsyn@clemsyn-MM061 #57 and as you can see I am also rooted, but I am not running any sort of custom rom. Every time I try to download update it acts like it will download but then android with ! pops up. Is this do to me having root or custom kernel or even both, any answer will help ALOT!!!

Edit:

Was able to go back to stock kernel, will try update if it doesn't work will unroot and try again.

ps LOVE THIS SITE!!!
[Eee Pad Transformer General] AvRS:
Asus UK have just announced on Facebook the update will be released tomorrow with a quick what to expect. Only company I've had experience with that give this sort of communication it's great!
