YouTube is not working on the original transformer either. Both the OG and the Prime are having force closes and YouTube has dissapeared from the market.

Beside this, everything is great. Except for a little ugly light bleed on my prime.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] richB7:
i noticed a change in graphics performance. Before the latest update I would always get some weird artifacts while choosing recent apps, but now it's gone.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] spencerj2001:
yea this has been brought up already they are mixed reviews about this, some say they still get this bug some say the update has fixed it. The update has fixed this for me as well.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] UDRandman:
better to have the effort than other companies who release something that doesn't work then doesn't worry about fixing it. (Samsung)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] dabbill:
Looks like the YouTube crashing has nothing to do with the update. Crashing for me now on 11.1 when it was working perfect earlier today.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] BUYMECAR:
Did the update... played a bit of Angry Birds and no more screen tears, so that's good. Definite graphics fixes.

Nothing on the WiFi/bluetooth front however. No improvements to report.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] HOFFERN342:
The youtube issue is for all tablets. Something with the Youtube server I guess..
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Hasan10:
Also I did not get the update yet. Any Canadians here who got the latest build? I would be very happy if it fixes the recent apps graphic glitch.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] bolverk:
USA Prime - using it in Canada. Rooted. Installed cifs.ko/md4.ko. No other modifications. Not sure if I was running .11 or .11.1 ... The last update I did before this was the GPS fix.

Did the update today after it harassed me in to doing it and it went through the unpacking stuff with the android and the wireframe gem in its belly. After that, it tried to reboot and sat at a black screen for a few minutes.

I tried rebooting, holding the power for 10sec gets me a short vibrate and no visual change. The reset hole in the side changes nothing. Plugged in to USB, it shows up as an APX device (for which Windows can't find drivers).

I'm on hold waiting for ASUS support right now. Searching forums makes it look like I'd need nvflash to fix it, but I can't use that since the bootloader is locked.

I hope nobody else has this happen to them.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] imscwk:
Hong Kong user just complete the OTA update without any issue. Need further testing tho.

P.S. why ASUS dun put on release note... damn
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] aqzgr8estballer1:
if anyone is getting a failed update is because of one of the following:

you uninstalled an app that came with the tablet OR

you installed an app from an apk instead of the market (aka you didnt buy the app)

just uninstall the apks and the update will proceed.

Canada update probs

I'm in Canada, updated about 3 hours ago.. it's rebooting like mad... seems to reboot more when I leave it and am not using it.. it was rooted prior to the update but I gapped and didn't do rootkeeper.. (drinking rum/barqs tonight and BF3 session...)

Startup from off seems faster though.... I might try factory reset if this keeps up.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] xPSYCHOTRONx:
Updated working fine for the last 6 hours, no change to wifi or bt that i can tell.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] RipplingHurst:
Because they don't know yet what it does fix, simples.

They're waiting for the results coming from the beta testers...US :eek:

9.4.2.13 US Release Notes -

1. Fix Random Reboot / Lockup Problem (100% success in regression testing with returned units, hopefully the same in the community)

2. Enable Google WideVine video rental in the US

3. General Performance Enhancements - Usability and User Experience improvements

4. Improved WiFi operation (for most users, still working on the WiFi/BT dropout fix that will not be assisted by the WiFi/GPS firmware updates)

---------- Post added at 09:35 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:34 PM ----------

Please PM with your setup and prior firmware release. This is the first and only report about dead WiFi out of 22K updates today so it could be something else causing the problem.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] RipplingHurst:
Thank you very much, better late than never.

I'd rather have the release notes before updating (say on the tablet itself) but hey, it's maybe too much to ask.

Btw, no wifi improvement for me.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] shoman94:
Mine died as well after a wake-up. Turning off and on didn't help. I reboot and that cured it for now. Previously I didn't have any issues with wifi.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] sparkym3:
I'm pretty sure what you are referring to with the hole in the side is the microphone. So, you it may have changed something, but it may be the sound quality in any of your future recordings or cause issues with speech recognition.

prior to the .13 update (was on .11) the youtube app was working (mostly) for me. However, now it will FC every time a vid is clicked.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] demandarin:
There's already a thread on this. Its not the update. Its on the you tube side. Everyone on ICS across different devices having same problem.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] al mon:
Same problem here. Youtube FC when a video is clicked.

Crappy QA - no regression testing........

When is the Bootloader unlock tool coming?

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] phree1:
For those still having issues getting 9.4.2.13 installed that are *not* on the dev beta, Here is how I got mine working (If you missed my earlier post, TiBackup borked an app backup in \system\app and OTA would not run).

I downloaded the manual OTA install for .11 and went through the normal manual installation process.

To my surprise, it overwrote my .11 installation.

I lost root and OTA Rootkeeper could *not* restore my root.

I re-rooted, re-protected my su, and successfully updated to 9.4.2.13. OTA then let me restore my root.

Thanks to GirLuvsDroid and akstyle450 for sending me .apk's and odexs trying to find a fix!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] BongoBong:
Most (if not all) of the other updates came a day later to canada.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] dasgh:
I apologize. I should have been clearer. The reason I mention my versions is because some people said they were having issues on .11 and I did not experience that. The only thing that changed this morning between youtube app working and not is the .13 update.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Foetus:
Biggest improvement for me is something I haven't seen mentioned yet... PDANet Tablet now works over Bluetooth!!! I was just using my tablet using my HTC EVO 3D for my internet connectivity... works flawlessly now.

Also saw a giant boost with my GPS, and a slight bump in my wifi performance as well.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] LNKNPRKFN:
well ever since the ICS update i havenet been able to do any of the updates...just keep getting "!" with the droid on his back...oh well i have had nothing go wrong with this maybe its for the better or greater good!!!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Vcolassi:
I agree i just tested my gps and picked up 13 signals in about 15 secs WOW! Also better wifi.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] gaetawoo:
I'm trying to download the system dump for .11 but its taking FOR EVAR. does someone have the STOCK SystemUI.apk from .11 that they could send me or post?? pleeeease? I made the mistake of not making a backup of the latest systemui.apk, i had made one of the previous version and i restored that one and this latest update doesn't like it... obviously. so i blew it. now i know!

anyone please?

Just ran some benchmarks on Performance mode, and mine has zero time at 1400MHz. Also zero time below 475MHz. Looks like more CPU speed management refinement is in order.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] SpinnZ:
Anyone in Australia receive the OTA yet?? Ive done my pre update screen shots. Just need the update.

Mines stock and not rooted, just a simple user :-)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] gaetawoo:
please?! can no one send or post the systemui.apk from .11?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] avinash60:
Everything seems good, GPS is also slightly improved and Wi-Fi was never a problem with me.

Though, I have to say that it takes substantially longer to wake up from the sleep, nearly twice as long If you ask me. Is there some kind of a new deep sleep state that has been added in this update? I havent had any problems with the device not waking up that a few others mentioned.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] probie:
Nothing yet for me. Hopefully soon though.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] deevo2:
Yeah I'm the same, see 475mhz / 1200mhz post below. Is anyone not seeing this behavoir, easy way to check is to use "system tuner".

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] gaetawoo:
thanks.

was hoping i wouldn't have to do that.. i'm assuming it doesn't touch anything else you have, like data partition? could i just extract the systemui.apk from there and paste it into my system/app folder? the file is 300 megs or so and i'm only pulling 50kB/s from their server... ugh.. it's forever slow.

but thank you for the attention and help!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] d1ez3:
I didn't read thread. But I updated this morning and when I came back 15 hours later on my battery monitor widget I see I lost 4% an hour and sometimes 8%/hr just sitting idle in power savings with wifi on. Anyone else have horrible idle battery now?

My GPS finally started to work after the most recent update. My Prime never wouldn't even see a single bird before and I left iton outside for hours once. Now it sees around 4 - 6 satellites from my windowsill. Looks like this update sorted everything out!

Thanks!

Went through all the posts which I didn't do before posting my previous reply.

Hope its some simple problem at YouTube server side

Haven't noticed any significant improvement in WiFi.

GPS, I have never used it. Maybe I will try it under open sky after office with GPS Tester
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] the_game_master:
I'm going forward to try out this update.

I'm hoping it fixes the glitches in the Youtube app that's come apparent since the last firmware update.

symptom includes, constant gittering from the Home page.

crashing when navigating, actually I wasn't experiencing crashing much until just now as I go to Youtube to verify another problem I saw earlier and it's getting a scrambled picture when I went full screen on video playback.

Now I'm getting nothing but crashes when I try to play any video from search.

My guess from seeing this prior to updating firmware is that this firmware update will mostly likely address these problems with Youtube.

So here goes. I'll post back my results after update.

The version of Android is somewhat independent of the kernel. ICS is really supposed to be based on kernel 3.0, but frankly Linux kernel 3 is basically 2.7. It still has many things based on what was in 2.6.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] duckied:
yeah you gotta save the root then after the update you press the button to restore and reboot the device
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] soulctcher:
Nope...just make sure you have Voodoo Rootkeeper installed and ran prior to the update. (All the checkboxes in Rootkeeper should be checked prior to the update.) Then run the update, go back into Rootkeeper, and re-root.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] dandmcd:
Well, they still didn't do much for the kernel, battery usage still is not available.

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] demandarin:
Gotta love voodoo OTA rootkeeper. Been working great for me last few updates. Its so easy to restore root. I'm fully updated now also. Any changelog to show exactly what's being improved?

If the wifi firmware was updated, would that automatically mean the wpa_supplicant and wpa_supplicant2 files would be different or new also? Or could other things concerning wifi be changed?

Reason I ask is because I think mines is still using the patched one to enable ad-hoc tethering. The one from lock n load thread. My prime still sees my wifi tether. Just curious. My prime still updated n everything fine.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] sr89194:
I believe its to fix the rebooting issue that has plagued so many of us. I've done more in the past 15 min on my TP that I did all day yesterday (brand new), so I'm stoked about this update.

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] fenturi:
So after I updated I got the first reboot I have had on this Prime... !

However I was testing bluetooth, and I do not normally do that because it is broken.

So, I ran slingplayer... it streamed to bluetooth speakers for about 3-5 min, then wifi came to a stop (no wifi at all.)

Closed everything and after awhile the wifi came back. Tried streaming again and the screen started flashing white while the video was playing... then crashed the system.

So on my Prime BT/WIFi is not happy. This does NOT seam to be a signal issue... because it worked for about 5 min. (my wifi speed was slightly slower but that is expected) then it just drops off a cliff and all wifi stops.

---------- Post added at 02:28 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:27 AM ----------

Oh, the "out of sync" audio over BT is much better now (for the 5 min it worked)

Anyone else have 1400mhz and 370mhz and 204mhz and 102mhz locked out after the update?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] the_game_master:
perhaps you should do the same. I've read the post and mentioned other glitches I've noticed with the Youtube app since the last update.

The gittering which I didn't have with Youtube until after the first update following ICS.

The crash may be entirely independent of ICS updates but again do like you say and read the posts.

I received a rather large boost in WiFi speed. I'm extremely skeptical of people who claim such things from a firmware update so perhaps its coincidental. The older updates didn't change things for me though it wasn't horrible. The only instability I previously had was with the Asus task manager.

Apparently quick-reply doesn't quote... this is in response to the person who suggested the hole on the side might be the microphone, not the reset button...

It's not. That's at the top. The reset button is a paperclip hole on the side. The Asus tech even had me attempt a reset using that before sending me a shipping label to return the thing.

I'm not too impressed that I'll be stuck without the device for a few weeks for shipping and for them to repair it all because of an incompletely tested update that they harassed me in to applying in the first place.

When I get it back, I'm going to be looking in to ways to disable the popup update notification.

hmm... this morning when i flipped on my TF201 (post-update) and enabled wifi the device had a lot of trouble getting onto my network. i toggled wifi on/off several times and waited after each but it just sat there with no connection. pulled up the wifi settings and it could see my network (rated the signal as "Fair") but still couldn't get it to connect even when i set it to do this manually. ultimately i had to walk to the other end of the house where it had a very strong signal and once again toggle wifi off/on before it would lock. then i was able to walk back to where i was previously and it continued working with the "fair" signal.

first time this has happened to me. anyone else having problems with wifi connecting after the update?
