Just installed the new update, so far wifi has gone from~65db to ~55db. but ping has gone up. Lets hope I dont get the reboot issues.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] alanhzl:
Just installed .14 update. Haven't noticed any reboots/glitches.

Tested bt/wifi again and these are my results:

Pre update:

With BT off, ran Speedtest, downloading at about 11Mbps.

With BT on, while transfering files from phone to prime using bt file transfer and running a speedtest at the sametime, got less than 500 Kbps on download.

Post update:

No major changes while BT is off.

With BT on, transferring files yadayada.. Speedtest, 7 Mbps on download.

So, the update definitely improved the bt/wifi performance, atleast for my unit.

I have a C10kA unit.

Good luck everyone..

Stock BBOKAS which was having the power problem after the .13 update (it would kill all the dock power overnight + about 10% of tablet). Have status of battery history and WiFi was constantly on. Tried some of the developer options and data deletion suggested in the thread but nothing seemed to work.

Applied .14 last night before heading to bed.

Woke up this morning to a near fully powered tablet (lost10% off dock and a couple percent on tablet).

WiFi still shows as powered on all night, but at least I have battery power left.

Not seeing any changes to WiFi, it is still erratic for connection speeds and signal strength but connections have been stable .11 even if connections are considerably weaker compared to my laptop (when testing side by side at the same location, the laptop has consistantly 2 to 8 dB better signal)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] eduardmc:
i can confirmed again after trying everything imaginable that this update is causing lockup (freeze then reboot)in my BCOKAS every 5 minutes after a restart. it happens randomly so i believe it might be something with the cpu and how it behave. if you don't touch the tablet it doesn't do it, but if you do any kind of processing like typing, going to setting opening application, downloading, anything that make the cpu goes from standby to low usage (or high) it cause the freeze randomly. It does not happen right away but it happens sooner or later. it does this with

Wifi on and off

perfomance, balance or energy saver

3 time factory reset no app install

hardreset

i actually reverted back to .11 and let the firmware update download and installed again. after installation was complete i then again did a factory reset with a hard reset, same lockup freeze reboot problem.

i have to go back to .11 and stay there until asus fix this problem.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] aypanthony:
You may want to IM Gary Key and let him know.

I have the same serial number as you, however, I didn't have any issues with .13 either. Strange that you are ok on .11. I was going to guess it was a h/w issue.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] cerberu5:
No problems

I tried it.. So far nothing noticeably different in useage.. Voodoo OTA rootkeeper still working great.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] dgoodsell:
Installed update this morning seems to be a little better with battery and a little snappier.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Blairware:
How do you know?

That's not the most scientific analysis we have gotten to date. Snappier eh? Are you SURE? Are absolutely positive it wasn't "snappier" before?

My snappiness is about the same. Snap. LOL!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] vX-2:
Before my GF applied .14 to hers, it works and runs fine with .13, no lockup issues... and she also didn't complain much about battery + docking. But .14 screw things up and it's been restarting every 5mins or so... yes, it does seem what u've described as such, if you just turn it on, and leave it, it wont hang/ reboot. E.g. no processing.

Who is Gary KEY? he needs to be ware of the situation !
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] ProficienTICS:
Does anyone here have a BCOKAS ww unit they have manually installed .14 onto?

The guy above had had issues just wondering if anyone else has.

Thanks
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] vX-2:
Thanks!

Would rooting the device void the warranty? I mean she just got it 2weeks ago (from best buy). Would it be better if I send it in for ASUS replacement?

EDIT ADD: Her kernel is android@mercury #1... is that what you all is having?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Lock-N-Load:
As usual.. I plan to hold out as long as possible and use my 3 delays until I see how this shakes out. I am stable now, for the most part other than some reboots introduced in the last OTA I never had, so I am going to sit tight and watch this unfold until I am forced to update.

Do the Battery stats in Settings work yet????

SO glad to see we got the lower CPU states back!! That was way more valuable to me and I think some of these issues than the top 1.4 was - though I'll take that back also thank you.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] demandarin:
Nothing to worry about, as far as voiding warranty. Just do the rollback method to downgrade back to .13. That link I put in that other post. Its in developement section. Thread called install any firmware you want. First you have to root though. I would only send it to Asus as a last resort but really is not needed if your gf prime worked fine on. 13.

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] vX-2:
Thanks I'll try it tonite.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] demandarin:
No battery stats for app yet. GARY saidbthey working on a rewrite for ICS to include it. He also saidbthst is not a requirement for ICS. It's an optional code if manufacturers or whatever wish to include it. Meaning basically they not obligated to do so but will try to work it in anyways.

Update for the most part seems to be working well for most. Always a few exceptions. I know it is on mines and I didn't do any resets or data wipes beforehand. I never do. N all updates install just fine for me. Excellent battery life is back.

Here is straight usage in balanced mode. Brightness less than 20%. No more than 2-3 hrs. Sleep on it. Wifi on the whole time. This has been fresh since I installed update late last night/morning. With me having 23% battery left, I can easily get 2 more hrs out of it. That's for a combined over 13hrs of straight use. Subtract the sleep time them its still 10-11hrs. Straight heavy usage from surfing web n helping people up here.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Blairware:
**** no. I am beginning to wonder if they EVER plan to fix that (when they get done fixing what they broke when they were fixing something else they broke, LOL!

They are trying, I will give the A for effort. B- for results...

Oh, and would it be too much to request a changelog, fixlist, SOME documentation to go with these frequent FW updates? At least we could see where they are focusing...
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Lock-N-Load:
Seems a bit early to say "Excellent battery life is back" the OTA just came out so... but I will believe you for now.

Yeah, I know it is 100% on Asus to get us the Battery stats in Settings. If they don't, a dev will when unlocked bootloader comes. And BTW, that function was pre ICS into HC.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Magnesus:
(just a side note) That means it's best to wait for Nexus tablet if we want a proper Android tablet.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] skyterrier:
Updated about two hours ago and can't go but a few minutes before crashing and rebooting. Not a happy camper here. Starts off by throwing the error message "Unfortunately DMClient has stopped, OK" then it generally throws " Connection problem A network error occurred, OK"

then your a few operations from a reboot.

I have an email into the support guy I am working with on my GPS issues. Waiting for a reply.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] scataldo721:
just updated i have a c1 prime and i am still very happy with my device no issues
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] parker7:
why are asus customers being used as beta testers. This is bollocks. It's also why sheepeople buy apple. If you put an update, it should work, not fix another update or cause some poor sap more problems. **** me, even i'm thinking of buying the new ipad, and i talk everyone off apple.

At least most of the time their stuff works and i don't have to come on xda for the knowledge of people who aren't being paid. (thanks, by the way to you guys). To find what's wrong, what the fix is or have to wait for a top developer to sort the **** out. All i want to do is watch bbc iplayer on my tablet. It's not like i'm asking for a date with Jennifer Lopez for my 500 quid.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] chamberc:
Been running it since 6:30 AM CT... can also say battery life is greatly improved.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] jaypm:
so first asus ships .13 to address freezes/reboots and removes all the lowest and highest clocks to be "conservative" (gary's words, not mine). of course XDA lashes out in rage over the theoretical loss of performance and/or power efficiency without doing much measuring at all. and yet nobody complains about freezes and reboots because they went away.

but unfortunately whatever changes they made also resulted in some models never going into a sleep state and draining their battery while idle. so asus halts the rollout of .13, and 9 days later releases .14, which brings back ALL the clocks from .11... and also the freezes and reboots.

is it really so hard to see the connection here? in all likelihood, some of the tegra3 chips just aren't stable at low clocks. maybe it's bad binning by nvidia, or maybe it's bad chip design. either way the software can't know whether the chip is capable of and the options asus will have to address this now are limited.

expect to lose your low clocks again, soon. if there are enough reports of freezes then asus will probably yank the .14 update again while they sort this out (which of course will cause even more complaining from all the non-US/TW users on XDA who are jealous of updates even when they are duds).

nice virtuous circle we got here

IMO, I've never used an apple device that worked properly. In my experience, they're pure junk from both a functional and quality control perspective.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] caljr:
Here's what battery history looks like on my unit pre/post update.

The red zone is the last overnight drain to off. (2 days ago overnight), had a full charge the next night and last night had the .14 applied)

The WiFi status is show as on even in Airplane Mode here. So either that status is broken or it's constantly on.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] jdbaker82:
Been saying this for a month now the only way to fix this is mass recall. I recommend anyone with issues return for a refund now if you can.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Liferules:
As most have said, the .14 update to .13 improved the battery drain issue and the random reboots. From reading the last dozen or so pages, the main people who seem to be having problems are the ones who manually downgraded to .11 and now are trying the .14.

Wonder if they need to sequentially upgrade? I.e. do .13 and then .14? Does anyone know if the .14 in the US contains everything that was in the .13 as well as a fix, or just a fix for the .13?

May explain the problems many coming from .11 are having...
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] zipper9:
Hi,

i Have a WW prime and i applied the .13 update via the blob file, i also tried to update to the .14 using the .14 blob file but after the reboot it remained on .13??
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] youngnex:
i downgraded to .11 but then went to .13 and now to .14 and have no problems. Working great.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] zipper9:
how do you apply this update, i was trying the method suggested here to upgrade to .13 which worked fine but when trying to do so for the .14, after the reboot, i still see .13..

??
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] vX-2:
Not me... it works just fine b4 or until I (my GF) upgraded hers to .14, and the constant reboot hits her.... before this, it works straight out the box, updated to .13, which has also work just fine; b4 this .14 screw things over.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] jflikk:
How did you get such detailed battery stats? Mine only shows me the stats from my current charge.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Don Lettrich:
@eduardmc,

I have a BCOKAS unit that had no real issues with .13 other than the battery drain, especially in the dock. Since the OTA to .14 I have had no issues, no reboots and battery seems to last much longer, though I haven't done any scientific tests to quantify it.

WiFi seems better than on .11 with just general use (well, at least the meter says so). GPS is still seeing next to nothing, but I don't really care about GPS.

Not sure if you updated via OTA or manual, but it might be worth a try to manually apply the .14 upgrade from .11 (following a factory reset). Maybe something in the OTA is not getting cleanly installed....just a suggestion.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] cksuen:
Thanks, gary!

I have a persistent sleep of death issue with .13. After installing .14, the problem has not occurred for the last 3 hours. Thanks ASUS for the quick update!!!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] jdbaker82:
exactly why people shouldn't have manually rolled back to 1.11.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] eduardmc:
I'll try that and let you know if it works
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Moothead2:
People just need to manually update to .13 through a download somewhere on this forum, root now just to make sure (ViperMod works with .13) and then the OTA to .14 should come through.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] vX-2:
You know, not everyone is experiencing the cure?

Like mine, it's so ****ty running on .14, I do have to manually roll-it-back down to .13, where I have no problem of what so ever to begin with.

.14 doesnt work for all.... I don't know if it's just my version of tab... #B (when .13 works just fine, no re-boot or whatever problem.)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Moothead2:
I was trying to help those who were having problems getting .14 OTA :).
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] mazjohn:
I would think Asus is expecting the tablet to be at last previous firmware level prior to a new update, since the system only allows for the user to postpone an update up to 3 times before a forced update. I don't think rolling back is a good idea- Again, My own opinion, but I strongly think it could break the system if you rollback and then skip an update for another.

Be careful out there!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] buxtahuda:
I rolled back...

No issues, and it has you go through update-by-update if you leave the DMClient running, all OTA.

I went from a rolled-back .11, to an OTA .13 to OTA .14.

Everything is working beautifully (that is, forced downgrade caused 0 issues I can see) and I'm currently testing battery-drain.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Starseven:
So, some people have problems with the .14-Update and for others, everythign went fine.

3 or more users in this thread have Problems (freezing, reboot, etc.) with the .14-update AND have a SN # BCOKAS...-Prime.

I think it would be helpful, if we post our SN#-Number on our reports. Maybe we could find out, if these Problems only relate on a specific SN#?!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] aypanthony:
Not necessarily, didn't they pull the .13 update because of issues? Maybe I am mistaken, but I thought there were some people that were still on .11 even before .14 hit.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] buxtahuda:
That's right, they did. And that's right, there are.

But if you OTA from .11 it won't go straight to .14, as I said above. DMClient has you go through one update at a time to catch up to the most current one.

After testing this fw since last night i can say my prime has never ran better. No more sleep issues. I am also getting better wifi speeds and the overall feel of my prime feels smoother and faster. Best fw update so far. This is on a BCOKAS
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] youngnex:
if you have it rooted, you can copy the blob and downgrade. works great.

you'll get .14 buggin you to upgrade though lol

anyone same problem?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] DigitalSkyline:
I have a BCOKAS and so far no reboots, seems to be running better with this update... not as laggy surfing the net, even youtube hasn't managed to reboot it... knock on wood!!! Only had it for about 3 hours now, so still vetting it.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] PuroKaibil:
I have a "BCOKAS" with the unknown serial issue and still on .11 (did it manually a while back).

Should I just take the leap of faith to .14 or do the .13 first?

.13 listed on ASUS page but not able to download. I know it's posted here somewhere if I really needed.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] edster00:
A couple things I've noticed since the update this morning: the Prime doesn't get hot anymore after a long period of use; battery life seems to be better, I'm at 60% after 6:50 up time with a lot of use (at least 4 hours), I did not have a battery issue while Prime was asleep, 3% overnight while on .13, but did seem to drain faster while in use on .13; and I'm getting at least 1 bar better on wireless icon where I sit in my living room, strange since they didn't change wireless.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] BUYMECAR:
Just got home from work and did the quick update. Unable to make an observation regarding battery life but my WiFi seems worse actually. Where I used to get 16 Mbps I am now getting between 7 and 9.

*sigh*
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] buxtahuda:
Please reset both the Prime and your networking equipment (given this is your own network) and see if that does anything...

I know it shouldn't, but I've read similar things about the other updates where rebooting routers usually helps.

Running now in Houston...

Also: I though that Landry's was only Houston Area? Shows what I know...
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] :
This update solved the sleep lockup problem on my stock BCOKAS. After .13 it locked every time on sleep within 5 minutes. Now almost 12 hours since OTA .14 (did factory reset prior to letting it install) with many sleep intervals of 5 to 60+ minutes, not a single one.

Had random reboots (2-4/day) in .11 with generally good performance. Then .13 solved the reboots with very good performance, but introduced the sleep bug and battery consumption was noticeably poorer. So far .14 seems to be preserving the benefits of .13 (no reboots, running very well & smoothly) while eliminating the sleep problem and battery life seems much more like it always was before .13.

Received tablet from Amazon on 1/24 with HC, which updated right away to ICS and had many more random reboots (10+/day) until .11 which was better but still not right. WiFi has been decent all along, no reliable GPS yet to speak of. This is the best tablet has run since I got it and first time without some major issue by now, but will report any problem(s) that come up as I use it.

Thanks to Gary & ASUS for this update!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] jflikk:
I have tried, but all I can see is the current charge, it won't go any further back. What you see in the picture is as far back as I can go.

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] wicked83:
Hi, first post. I just got my Prime 4 days ago. Was all kinds of worried about all the reviews but bought one anyways. I dont seem to have may of the issues I've read about. Screen is straight, no stuck pixels, no lock ups really.

However I did alot of tests with the Speedtest app / website between all my devices the last 2 days. Including my Droid RAZR, Laptop, CM9'd Touchpad and the TFP. It was not too bad yesterday. The TFP would only pull about 2-5 less MBps than the other devices. But after the update I did this morning to .14 my MBps halved on the TFP and I got a funky Graphics error on the entire left side of my Prime. It did go away after a frantic reboot though.

Best way to describe it was like a strip all the way up of different light bars from the side to a inch out. A "comb of light"

Anyways to the heart of the matter. Im going TDY for over 30 days and my issue is yall think I should hope for another firmware update to fix those 2 issues or return it while I can? My worry is its a lot of money for me to drop on a device and just want to make sure i got something that will last. After the update I tried all the options I read in this thread to fix the download loss except restarting my router which im going to try tonight after work. Thanks for reading :)

Edit: my serial number is a C10K
