Finally! For a time it looked like Gary & ASUS were simply ignoring problem reports by sticking to their 'ASUS tested it and update is fine' plan.

This is the right move by them. Shame that US customers were used for beta testing though.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] jyan_osu:
For those that thought my screenshot was fake, I posted a video of my Prime's battery display overnight while i was asleep and it was off the charger.. no wifi , no bluetooth.. excuse the breathing.. I have a cold and for some reason the Evo 3D's microphone really picked it up.. I really wasn't breathing that loud :)

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] isnowbrd:
Hi everyone, my first post. So far I've been able to find the answers to all my questions just by reading existing posts. However, this last update created a new problem on my otherwise perfectly working prime and I haven't seen anyone say they are having the same problem.

My problem is that my prime loses it's internet connection after being in standby for a short period of time. When I wake it up, the wifi signal indicator is gray instead blue and it will not reconnect unless I turn wifi off and on again. I've already checked the "Keep Wi-Fi on during sleep" setting and I didn't have this problem until I received the OTA update on Saturday.

Has anyone else experienced this?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] :
Go to Settings, WiFi, top right 3 dots and tap advance, and select always in Keep Wifi on when asleep
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] vdelab:
Hello all,

just a piece of information from France,

I just saw on twitter that ASUS as suspended the availability of the latest OTA update (in French "C’est via twitter qu’Asus France annonce l’arrêt de l’OTA en cours de déploiement annoncée vendredi dernier. Un problème lié à l’autonomie de l’appareil semble en être la cause. Asus indique qu’il travaille déjà sur un correctif , une nouvelle mise à jour devrait donc être disponible dans les prochains jours.").

Meaning 9.4.2.13 will not be distributed in France, and they announce another correction soon, due to issue on Autonomy.

Looks like the US "guinea pig" have played their role, sorry but thanks! And I don't mock you, as my ASUS (still in the international mail) will be a US one...

If I see further tweet on this, I'll share.

Vincent
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] slayer69:
I am pretty sure his post said he has done this. I too have seen this happen but only once so far. Only issue I have noticed after this update has been the battery drain while sleeping. Used to be able to go 2 days before charging with keyboard and tab fully charged. Now its every day I have to charge. Quite sad but I am sure Asus will come through.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] isnowbrd:
Yeah, tried that already. Rebooting didn't work either.

I'm wondering if I should try a hard reset but I don't know what that actually does to the tablet. Will I lose my information?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] buxtahuda:
You will lose EVERYTHING you've changed on the internal SD card. Any important info should be backed up to external mSD card.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] mmilestone:
You will lose all information :eek: - back them up before you reset.

For good measure try this:

Reset.

Don't log in to Google. Let the TP finish all background tasks after boot-up. Leave it for at least 20 minutes. Give it a few hours and observe for changes when in use or idling.

Reset a 2nd time...(you didn't log in to google, right?)

Again, don't log in to google...not yet. Again, let the TP finish all background tasks after boot-up. And, again, leave it for at least 20 minutes.

Log-in to google and re-install your apps straight from the Market -not from backups. Observe overnight idle stats. Try installing CPUSpy and/or Better BatteryStats to help you.

This worked for me. YMMV And a single Factory reset alone worked for others too.

..

It should be worth a try.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] isnowbrd:
I guess I'll try that before I return it but I was hoping Asus would release another update that would fix the problem. To be clear, you and the others mentioned had the same problem I am having with losing wifi during standby and these steps fixed it?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] mmilestone:
That and more(battery drain, etc.). My wi-fi signal was better but, even if I alter and set the keep wi-fi awake in settings, it still turned off when idling. But like mentioned, your mileage may vary. At this point it wouldn't hurt to try.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] theledman:
seconded, i never had reboots before this update but now i get them once every 10 minutes.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] isnowbrd:
I found out something interesting with this problem. I have two routers in my home, one on each end on different floors. Both are 802.11g and one of them (belkin) is only used to extend the wifi range, meaning it doesn't have DHCP server enabled since the other router (Linksys) does that. I'm only having this problem when connected to the belkin. It maintains connection during standby if I have it connect to the linksys. Again, this only started happening this past weekend with the new update, so I still think it's related to the wifi firmware update they released.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Mubble:
Is this the same delay to the WW update which was due today - but the French only just being told, or is this in addition to the WW delay?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] isnowbrd:
I've also noticed that the tablet is actually still connected to the router when waking it up, the internet just doesn't work. But if look at the wifi settings it says it's connected, and if I walk away from the router I can see the signal strength decrease. I've tried assigning a static IP to the Prime, but still the same problem. Does anyone know what it means when the signal indicator is gray instead of the usual blue?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] skola28:
Third :)

I get a reboot every 10ish minutes since the latest firmware update. Had no problems before this; not even WIFI problems. Well, except for the GPS barely working.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] ugotproblemz:
+1 :mad:

this is completely bs....
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] kristovaher:
And we've not heard anything from Gary either, so we don't really know what's going on. But reports about .13 have been so devastatingly bad that I am sure they'll wait a while before releasing the next one, worst thing they can do right now is break Primes that are working fine and increase returns and RMA even more.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] skola28:
That's the problem; they broke mine which was working fine and I have no way to 'undo' it. :(

I may very well have to send it back; especially it they cannot get a fix out soon. With it rebooting every 10 minutes, it is basically unusable.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] isnowbrd:
There should be an easy way to roll back installed updates like you can with most other operating systems. Mine was working perfectly before this update and I only have until next week to return it.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Ride525:
Would this thread help you go back?

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] isnowbrd:
Thanks, but I don't really want to root my Prime. And that sounds like a bit of a risk to me. I don't think Amazon will let me return a brick.

Anyone for Android with built in system restore?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] usafle:
I am SO glad after hearing all these complaints that my tablet won't "See" the update. I guess I'm lucky in that regard.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] enomai:
New Orleans, LA downloading update now.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] corduroytrees:
I can't get around the DMCLIENT has stopped errors - even with clearing the cache, date, force stopping and rebooting.

I'll be glad when I'm back from business trips next week so I can finally RMA this thing and cross my fingers that I get a fix for this, backlight bleed, poor wifi and zero gps satellites.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Entree:
Yeah, this update fixed a lot of issues I was having.

Even copying and pasting from emails, for me, was broken previously. And market updates? No longer slowing down my Prime.

This update has really done a lot for me!!! :)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] JaceAlvejetti:
My Question is, Seeing as I'm still running HC as it is quite stable.. is this new .13 stable and did it do away with the rebooting issue? or is this another give some take some update?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] norm883:
11.1 is on the ASUS site this new one should overshadow for OTA, 11.1 was bad. I believe it will now be a manual update

http://support.asus.com/Download.aspx?SLanguage=en&m=Eee+Pad+Transformer+Prime+TF201&p=20&s=16
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] teknomar7:
Confirmed OTA received and installed in US. It sort of hung on 99% downloaded... then I went to check for firmware updates in the settings menu again and it restarted the download.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] demandarin:
Some people who had rebooting issue claiming it fixed it. One guy said he did more in 15 mins after update than all day yesterday..lol. plus the official sticky random reboot/lockup thread showing good signs.

That's why we need an official changelog. So we know what exactly to be looking for.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] BoostedSR20:
Saw this thread, so I decided to go check for mine. Had the update, it started to install in recovery, then I had the dead android guy w/red triangle. It sat there for a few minutes then rebooted and told me the update failed.

Kinda not wanting to try again....

I only had 35% battery.. gonna charge it and try again. Also, I ran Rootkeeper right before I did the update...
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] quartercirclebak:
Wanted to chime in and note that this didn't fix the issue I was most annoyed with, which is the obnoxious diagonal screen flickering on the home screen, usually when pressing the "recent apps" button. Also noticeable in the YouTube app.

No improvements in GPS or WiFi, although I know we've pretty much narrowed this down to hardware. Don't have a Bluetooth device to test that particular issue.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] GreginNH:
Damn, I am running 11.1 and dont see an update....the web site doesnt have the new on yet either....how do we get .13 if we were running 11.1?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] dcAndroidFan:
Upstate South Carolina, installing now. I had weak WiFi, pretty good GPS, and no random lockups before the update. We'll see if this improves the WiFi. Never tested the BT interference so I can't comment on that.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] soulctcher:
If you've renamed your systemui.apk to install a custom one, you should reverse that before running this.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] princeplanet:
Make that a confirmation in Western PA as well.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] norm883:
ASUS does not update the new until about 3 days after the OTA or longer!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Chemas:
I don't know if this works but... Try installing .11 manually (from ASUS site) ...and then check for .13 update.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] soulctcher:
Have you manually checked it?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] GreginNH:
I dont think they allow an older build to install....

oh well, guess I will have to wait :(
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] eduardmc:
ok, voodoo has all the option check

there're 2 icons

"delete su backup"

"temp. un-root(keep backup)

should any of this icon be press before doing the update?

or just live it has it is?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] BoostedSR20:
Aww crap I did! Gonna go reverse that and try again....

Yep that did it. Thanks!!

You guys need to come over to MD! :)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Ready2Mosh:
After updating did everyone see that it optimized their installed applications? I don't know if thats normal or not, but that took 7 minutes with 189 apps. I haven't gone through and tried any yet, I will start doing that shortly.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] ajithjagadish:
I will do a factory reset in sometime. Can't experience this reboot and battery drain which never happened before 0.13 update.

If there is any change after reset I will come back and report.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] jedi5diah:
the sad thing is they "overclock" for the min speed to 475mhz to "fix" lag instead of optimising the governor. definitely will drain more than normal, even though they "underclock" top speed to 1300mhz even on performance mode.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] vdelab:
I assume France is using the WW update anyhow, so it looks to be the same... and Frenc are only told about it now...

One additional information though is that they clearly talk about a battery/power management issue...
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] epology:
edit: Ah sorry, info was already posted!

Facebook France supports the idea that the deployment of .13 is being halted to due customer complains.

From their official page:

FRENCH:

Suite aux premiers retours sur la dernière mise à jour pour le Transformer Prime, nous avons décidé de suspendre son déploiement. Nos ingénieurs continuent de parfaire cette mise à jour afin de vous apporter la meilleure expérience utilisateur possible et nous vous tiendrons informé dès que celle-ci sera disponible.

I was leery about rooting a device that I was about to return, however, the root/unroot process of this device is incredibly simple!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Gary Key:
Update - Thanks to a few members who provided detailed information about their setups, application installs and other items we were able to replicate the sleep/battery drain issues affecting several users. We have a new firmware image going through qualification testing now and will present this to Google shortly for approval. At this point, if the firmware passes qualification testing, we should be able to release it early next week or sooner.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] cmckitterick:
I'll probably wait the rest of the week for an official fix, but if that isn't forthcoming, I'm definitely going the same route. For the future, is there a way to not update to the newest firmware? It seemed to me that I could only postpone it so many times. I'm using my tablet as a notebook replacement in a lab setting, so I'd much prefer stability to having the latest and greatest.

EDIT: Well, in light of the previous post, I'm definitely going to wait.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] whalemonster:
Thanks for keeping us updated Gary. I think users don't mind slightly delayed updates as much as they mind a lack of communication, so your occasional posts, even if only to reassure us that you haven't forgotten about us, are helpful.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] vittogn:
TX Gary.

Have u been able to reproduce the battery drain wile sleeping only or the "sleep of death" as well?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] killermojo:

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] xXxDieselxXx:

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Mubble:
So another week not being able to use my Prime :(

I know they're working hard to fix the problem, but I've had my Prime for 18 days and not been able to use it once.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] kristovaher:
Please this time test it also on devices that don't have problems. Your last update fixed flawed Primes, but at the same time broke many that worked alright. Make sure to test both this time or we'll have this one going until summer.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] nyijedi:
This is an important point. I hope they're more careful with updates moving forward.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] buxtahuda:
I think that after another month with the Prime and its plethora of issues, ASUS will have no choice but to be careful with just about anything moving forward...
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] krispy521:
Gary,

Is it possible to fix the GPS after the 1/17 update killed it too? Prior to that update my GPS work (it was weak but functional). After the 1/17 update, it doesn't work at all.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] eduardmc:
easy, just downgrade to .11

that is what i did and is working beautifully back again. All the nighmare i had with battery drain, random reboot, sleep of death are now over.

When the new firmware is release i'll give it a few days and see how the users are reacting to it.

Yes, it's a shame we have to be the beta testers for ASUS but I'll be waiting as well.

Are you UK based? How did you update with the US firmware?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] guthrien:
I just kept having reboots. I appreciate the downgrade info that people have supplied but I'm just shutting mine down until they figure it out. 5 reboots in about 3 1/2 hrs of usage is just insane. I did a complete wipe and reinstall as well.

At this point I'm waiting for the boot loader unlock so the community can supply better roms.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] xGary:
Anyone in Canada get it yet? Im still on firmware .11. Do you have to unfreeze apps on TitaniumBackup for updates to work (I unfroze them and still no update)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] chrisfu:
Hi Gary,

Any chance of starting to provide changelogs for your updates? I imagine doing such a thing will greatly increase the quality of feedback you receive and make for quicker diagnosis of issues stemming from an update.

As it stands, it takes the community around a week collectively to notice what's been changed and where, which generates a lot of ill-feeling. Adding this layer of transparency will bring you closer to your user-base.

If any other forum users agree with this sentiment, click the thank button or quote me and add your own thoughts.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] whalemonster:
Absolutely - official changelogs should accompany each firmware release.

Standard.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] buxtahuda:
Consider yourself lucky so long as you don't want to waste your battery. Also a chance to start getting reboots if you don't already have them, GPS could stop altogether even though the build didn't change, and WiFi may or may not see an increase in performance (did they tweak the voltages to the chip?).

If you're rooted, check the dev section and you'll see a thread about "installing any version." This will allow you to flash a WW/US update if you want to try .13 and also allow you to revert to an older update. I'm currently on .11 again!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] ryanbell:
Dev forums show how to apply US update to non -uk devices.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] buxtahuda:
Reverted to update .11. Look around and you'll see my own and others' screenshots of this versus .13, as well as the battery effects (of the updates as a whole, not just the increase in CPU resources)

Obviously a difference.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] demandarin:
Just leave it as it is. Just make sure it says your root is backed up. I had no issues n didn't touch anything. Then after update go to voodoo n restore the root. This update will break root so it needs to be restored through voodoo.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] BoostedSR20:
Yeah this happens on my Nexus after I install a new kernel...

Sweet wifi and bluetooth update if only Asus would hurry up and fix my prime
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] barryflanagan:
That would be normal. It would have deleted the Dalvik cache when it did the rom upgrade.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] demandarin:
You sent yours off for rma? How long ago?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Ready2Mosh:
Thanks for the answers guys/gals.

OK, I tested 2 games real fast that gave me heck.

Before update GTA3 would lock up freeze and stutter until I rebooted and played it from a fresh restart. It wouldn't even play at all without it being in normal power mode (full power).

After update GTA3 doesn't require a restart to play and IT PLAYS IN POWER SAVING MODE WITHOUT HICCUPS. YAY!!!

Before update Monster Madness would do the same thing as GTA3.

After update see GTA3, great job ASUS so far.

Now get this wifi/blutooth thing straightened out.
