I'm also disappointed...

I expected it to solve world hunger and give world peace...

Maybe I should wipe and do a factory reset before starting a thread complaining about it...

...hmmmm...
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Reeonimus:
This happens during EVERY manufacturer update, on EVERY forum in XDA. People whine and moan at how long it is taking to release the update, then it's released and people whine and moan at how it didn't transform there device into the greatest conceivable thing known to man.

It's a stock update, it has bugs, they always do. Devs will make improvements but people need to stop acting like the "next big update" is going to solve all your problems and everything is unicorns and rainbows.

The other thing that ALWAYS happens is someone gets fed up and voices their opinion about how everyone needs to stop whining, and in this case it is me, and I am truly sorry. Gotta keep them XDA wheels goin round.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] nolan.b:
Lovin' ICS on the TF101. This should hold me off and skip a "Transformer" iteration lol--maybe.

Had stock, upgrade went smooth.

Only hitch, as someone else stated, i did get a G+ FC. Otherwise rest okay.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] miketoasty:
For me, this is now the greatest device I have ever used. Amazing update and everything works perfect, seriously have yet to find a bug.

Wiped completely and used the full update through CWM.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] infazzdar:
ICS gave me constant force closes and was terribly laggy after upgrading. I had to wipe data for things to function correctly, but afterwards everything was smooth.

I was never jumping for joy for the tablet to get updated in the first place. It's nice, but I am mainly anticipating the rom choices that are going to spawn from this.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Woody:
These two statements sum up the past month. It was a really PITA to sort through all the threads trying to find what I needed. Jumping over the "when will ICS get here" or the "screw you ASUS, we want ICS". Now instead I will have to hop through all the bug reports and duplicate threads about the same thing from the Department of Redundancy Department.

Hopefully there will be more posts like this.

YES!!! YES !!! YES!!!
[Eee Pad Transformer General] guywong:
No problem here either

ICS runs much smoother than HC. I now even get a spell checker for Gmail. Color scheme is changed. Now, when I copy, it's highlighted in light blue, instead of green. I'll get used to it.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] budven:
Updated stock to ics and updated apps with no problems.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] projeto56:
You guys are kinda lucky. I've flashed it after wiping everything, but I'm stuck at the android logo. T - T
[Eee Pad Transformer General] dodava:
I had the same issue but clearing the cache and data for the app resolved it.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Nutsonfire:
Runs smoother than ever, feels like having a new device. Cant wait for custom roms to improve things even further.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] ibrumfield:
G+

I cleared all data on G+, uninstalled and reinstalled, works fine now with no FC's...
[Eee Pad Transformer General] eminembdg:
For the OP complaining : first try factory resetting before *****ing. Also, if you're so unhappy with Asus, you could always sell it and get a Samsung tab and not EVER get timely updates.

One thing everyone that complains apparently doesn't understand : you are not entitled by any contractual agreement that your device will get updates. Asus nor any other manufacturer ever promises or guarantees updates to your OS. You should appreciate the fact that Asus is kind enough to even push an update to a device which by all means and nowadays is the standard that is considered old.

I'm glad that people like you are the minority. You're probably the kind who won't pay a measly dollar for an app and pirates it.

OK, sorry for the rant guys. Just needed to vent
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Magnesus:
Actually Asus promised ICS several months ago. They even put "upgradable to ICS" in the description of the tablet.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] miketoasty:
This right here, never really used my Transformer before but can tell that after this update it will probably be my most used device.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] eminembdg:
Yea true. Though still not a contractual promise. They even took that phrase off their site for a little while.

Anyways, my point is still valid. We should be thankful that we got an update
[Eee Pad Transformer General] munsterrr:
We are what? The second tablet to get official ICS. I'm having more fun gloating about it than anything else lol.

Enjoy all of your first world problems guys and gals. I'll be at the bar if you decide to experience fresh air.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Cloudsnightmare:
Yeah, after upgrading (Pure stock, non-rooted) I have G+ fc'ing continuously and a mass of other issues. I decided to do a factory re-set, this was at about 7:00AM Central Time, and quite literally every issue I was having has disappeared. So if you're having ANY issues, just try a factory re-set. Went beautifully for me.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Kenif1983:
Google books app doesn't work very well now.

After some time reading it becomes unresponsive and I can't turn pages
[Eee Pad Transformer General] veloom:
I got the update to ICS first thing this morning and have been extremely happy with it. Very fast and stable. I was running revolver until the update.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Lawliet:
I was having intermittent lags every few second. Did a factory reset. Let's see how it goes.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] habylab:
The spell check with the keyboard is a dreaaaaaaaaam. Smoother transitions, faster without overclock, easier to close apps. All is well.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] voyager_s:
well, I for one am very happy with the ICS update so far.

Been up and running for few hours now and no issues. The speed and smoothness improvements are excellent. Its not a whole lot of changes in terms of the visuals and UI from honeycomb but the performance enhancements are huge. Its the finished polished version honeycomb should have been I guess. Very good.

Now I have ICS on both my nexus s and transformer. What more could I need...haha
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Dan_Brutal:
Its funny. People ***** and moan about not getting an update in a timely fashion, and then when it does drop, they still ***** and moan. I truly believe that there is no way to make some people happy.

No another note, my tablet is in Texas with my wife, but as soon as its back I'm updating it. Cant wait for a Revolution or Revolver ICS build. Big props to the devs and Asus.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] csb5731:
I was pretty happy with Honeycomb, but if I knew how much ICS would improve the performance of my TF I'd have been more hot and bothered about it. I'm honestly surprised at how much smoother desktop transitions are and my only previous major gripe - stock browser rendering deficiencies - has been resolved.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] wilkster:
Lol I first read this as "now there's spell check with the keyboard clock" and I am thinking....well that's a strange feature....
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Drybonz:
After all the hundreds of ICS posts over the last couple months (when is ICS coming?), this is almost comical.

Anyway, I installed the stock rooted... running great for me.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] erikoss:
I've been following posts on a few roms like

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1450962&page=774

Lords IceColdSandwich 4.0.3 - 3.0.0 | BLACK PANTHER EDITION .

Looks like 2 months away from mature ICS roms.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] DaveyBoy2002:
DAMN...i was reading all the pages to make sure no one beat me to it...but you did :(
[Eee Pad Transformer General] AgeOfPanic:
I don't agree with the topic title at all. I had a lot of FC as well, but after a factory reset I really think the improvements are really good. Maybe Asus should just put this in their requirements for upgrading, since most people seem to really benefit from this.

Overall experience is way smoother and Chrome for Android is nice (Google Docs in the browser seems possible now). Also I like what Asus did with their customisations. I still might switch to a rooted rom at some point, but for now I'm very happy.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] trouzzermouse:
My ics is working fine. Touchscreen is more responsive. Like others have said nothing ground breaking. I like the status bar and the ability to swipe notifications away.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] hapahopi:
Not disappointing to me also. Initially I had this auto rotate issue after the upgrade but after a reboot, it went away. So far everything is running smooth to me and I didn't even do a factory reset. Surprised also that my root was preserved.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] horndroid:
Mine runs fine too. But I did a full factory reset before flashing the rooted version with CWM.

As for the features and such, it's not much different from HC. I really don't see what the big deal is.

I can see how you can be disappointed if you were one of the people who cried and QQed all day about Asus not releasing ICS fast enough.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] bosotros:
To address the OP's original question... My bluetooth mouse also quit working. After a lot of fiddling I found that simply Un-Pairing it and then Pairing it again solved the problem.

I had a lot of lagging too, and jerkiness changing screens, I was also disappointed. About three cold boots and a spontaneous boot of its own, the UI is smoother but still not what I would call better than HC. In fact, screen transitions are noticeably slower and more jerky, using the same wallpapers as before.

I'm getting used to it though and like it more as I fool around with it.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Drybonz:
Screen transitions have been really smooth for me... also, the new screen effects are nice... love the new menu layouts... all in all, I would say it really is a major update. I'm less excited about getting it for my phone, but going from Honeycomb to ICS on a tablet is really nice.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Gary13579:
Huge improvement here. Overall faster, easier to use, already loving the swipe to close apps along with Chrome (which despite a few bugs is absolutely amazing). Even at stock clock speeds, JSNES runs in Chrome at 25 FPS on SMB, and that's absolutely amazing. That runs faster than my notebook! And faster than Firefox on my beefy desktop, :lol:. Can't wait for kernel source for an overclock kernel.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] DaveyBoy2002:
i'm sick of all these bugs, i want jellybean NOW..someone call asus and ask when we're getting it!

</sarcasm>
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Tubular:
Yeah, I'm impressed by it. Now that I have it everything is calm again and I feel at peace. :cool:

I too enjoy the ability to swipe things away, pretty cool.

When developers start designing applications using fragments and the action bar and we get a whole bunch of apps that look great on both tablets and phones and with a clean uniform look the platform will really take off.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Toast95135:
I didn't check up on the forums for a while and I take a look this morning and find an ICS update :D. I flashed the whole CWM update and HOLY COW it's amazing! Everything is sooooo smooth.

Gone are the horrible launcher redraws... *click home* blank screen... lag... widgets and icons slowly load... lag. It still redraws but its barely noticable.

I always really like the stock browser on Honeycomb, blocks and all and now it's so fast and smooth. No blocks, MUCH better text input, just great.

I am very impressed, way to go ASUS! Now all I need is some CM9 and Cornerstone multi tasking ;)
[Eee Pad Transformer General] projeto56:
Ok. Got it now. I had to do a factory reset after flashing the rom. Now apparently all my problems are gone :D
[Eee Pad Transformer General] globiboulga:
I have the exact same experience here. Everything I disliked about the tablet is now gone: no lags, no hiccups, no stuttering anymore... The browser is fast... Don't get what others are saying, this is a brilliant update - no need to overclock anymore...
[Eee Pad Transformer General] cerberusmedia:
I had to do a factory reset since most of my games started flickering after updating to ICS
[Eee Pad Transformer General] richteralan:
For those who is experiencing slow/freeze/fc/bla bla bla,

Do a stock recovery data wipe.

I did it and no freezes or fcs whatsoever.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] luna_c666:
+1 on the wipe, it seemed to clear up a lot (by which I mean, 2 or 3) of small problems I saw..

Having had the US update just about as soon as it was here, I have to say I am VERY happy with this device. I would say with the addition of Nova launcher it is amazingly fast considering that it is not overclocked at all.

Anyone disappointed either can't see the forest for the trees or was expecting too much out of an android device to begin with. That said, if you are disappointed by ICS and wish to get the full use of your device, install ubuntu already, and quit trying to use android like you would use a desktop device OS. FWIW.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Meltn:
I love it!

Can't wait till I can get it on my Galaxy S2
[Eee Pad Transformer General] msaraiva:
Leaked LPH for the GS2 is very nice, leaps and bounds better than this bugged PoS that ASUS let slip through Q&A. Stock rom, not rooted, updated via FOTA, and having SODs/Random Reboots like there's no tomorrow. My "solution"? Using "No Sleep" widget.

<sarcasm>Thank you, ASUS. </sarcasm>
[Eee Pad Transformer General] jparity:
After doing a factory reset, everything is extremely smooth and fast.

Only complain is that I'm experiencing random reboot when the device is in sleep. And the reboot seem to be stuck at the Asus loading screen and keeps cycle through and kills the battery. The only way to solve the problem is to hold down power button for a couple seconds to hard reset the device...

Anyone experiencing similar problems?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] msaraiva:
See the post above yours.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] baseballfanz:
For me everything is working as it should. I have not use all my apps but the one I have used work just fine. I did have one random reboot within the first 24 hrs of use. I think those who are disappointed was expecting too much from ICS.

Some peoples was expecting ICS to cook them a 3 course meal.:D
[Eee Pad Transformer General] turtlelord:
Overall OK but....

I have experience serious problems with flash streams.

I'm on the verge of doing a factory wipe but before I wanted to know if I'm the only one.

Can any of you guys try out any stream from twitch.tv and let me know how it goes? Especially when fullscreened?

Otherwise, it's better although nothing ground breaking. Flash sucks in every shape or form though.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] jparity:
Haha. Thanks. Had a brain freeze moment. What's a no sleep widget? Does it kill the battery life if the device doesn't go into sleep?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] miketoasty:
Wow mines working perfect. Guess I'm just lucky.... Or I know what the hell I'm doing.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] AstroTrain:
I have exact same issue, 3 reboots, all of them gets stuck on the Asus loading screen in those reboots then have to hit power button for several seconds to restart, don't know what the issue is. did a factory reset after the update too. The reboots were not in sleep though just regular use.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] interfreak:
Yep, absolutely zero issues for me as well. ICS is awesome on my TF!!
[Eee Pad Transformer General] baseballfanz:
twitch.tv streaming fine on fullscreen.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] General Crespin:
Installed it on my wife's B60 this morning, been running like a dream.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] gramaton550:
I am not sure whats up with that I wonder?!
[Eee Pad Transformer General] goosegrease:
I have the same problem. Stuck in loading screen during sleep and doesn't respond. In my case, my power button is broken so I can't even reset. I had to wait until the battery is fully drained. I did factory reset afterwards just in case there's some app that's causing it, but it happend again this morning with nothing installed on it. Arrgh.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] jparity:
Ouch. That sucks.

So how do you turn on the device or wake it up if your power button is broken?...
[Eee Pad Transformer General] goosegrease:
I hook it up (or off) to the charger and it shows the unlock screen. Not convenient but didn't bother me too much... until now. I just filled out an RMA form. I hope their service is good.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] skraam:
Video problem.

I have only one dissapointment with ICS.

NHL Gamecenter app doesnt play videos and live games flawlesly anymore. I thinks there is problem with rom and hope that after some updated ICS ROM this bug will go away.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] jparity:
Oh man... Good luck!
[Eee Pad Transformer General] PaulGG:
I second this quote, ICS is awesome, all the things keyboard lag force closes etc are gone, ICS has surpassed IOS in my opinion. guess i am lucky no problems, SSD faster than my MBP in browsing and general use. This update has given the TF101 another years life at least, the 101 has just grown up. Little things like manually moving the cursor without the keyboard dock are now on par with the ipad.

The only problem I now have, my desire HD seems so slow in comparison. The new spell checker is awesome. I see lots of patent suit cases looming though, Lots of IOS features here. Asus well done, your definitely leading the field, just a pity you cannot ship the quantities to be number 1.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] seeingwhite:
I have installed ICS on two tf101s. One was an upgrade on top of Honeycomb, and one was a clean install. It is fantastic on both. This is the way honeycomb should have been from the beginning.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] msaraiva:
Way to be a prick. You don't know me to judge whether i did something wrong. Go ask around who i am before talking s*. But why believe a stranger on the internet, huh? It's always best to jump the gun and judge, right? I know what the hell i am doing.

There IS a bug in the shipped update, probably in the kernel. SODs and random reboots are not normal behavior, especially on a wiped device updated via official methods.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] tweaked:
It just be a timed bug cause I don't have it......seriously....call Asus. Since when is xda a support center anyways?

No one here built the ics, no one here modified it, no one here can see what you did or didn't do. You are a self proclaimed expert and can't figure it out. Call Asus.

Mine is fine tho. Go figure.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] msaraiva:
Despite really knowing what i am doing, nowhere i claimed to be an expert. And i didn't ask for support, i was looking for people with similar experiences. The fact that more people are facing the same issue, and that ASUS has a history of shipping updates with bugs (TFP ICS update) points to a bug. If you have nothing useful to add, then don't comment. I've been doing my part, trying to help people here. You should try to do the same.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] tweaked:
Call Asus. Its broke. They have a support center. You haven't done anything. No fix.

None. Only thing I saw you do is call some one a name cause they dont have the.error.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] xzilem:
ICS Nice

You must do something wrong or you must have a defect TF that make you different from others. I don't have your type of problem, i don't have FC or lag, it run so smooth on my TF. I didnt do factory reset too, just update it via OTA. Keep my root too via Rootkeeper.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] msaraiva:
Look at what XDA has become...no wonder respected developers are leaving. I really miss WM6 days.

It's been only a few days since i started posting on the Transformer forums, but do a search for my name and you will see several posts on the GS2 / Milestone forums where i helped others. That's what i was talking about. About the "name calling", if you read the other guy post i quoted, you will see he said "...or maybe i know what the hell am i doing.". THAT was totally uncalled for.

My Transformer is not broken. It works just fine on HC. It is a firmware bug.

Sorry, but that's anecdotal evidence. I'm not the only one having this problem, so it may only be afecting specific batches. Also, i never said anything about FCs or lag. My "only" problem with the ICS update is the periodic random reboot.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] tweaked:
You called someone a name. Childishly, so I hopped on yer case. You are the problem here. Name calling and whining. You.

There is no firmware bug. ONLY a handfull of users report it. And I say you are suspect in causing your own issue.

Fyi - I don't care who or what you have done elsewhere. You have attitude problems now. Goodluck with your issues.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] horndroid:
Been over 48 hours and not a single freeze or reboot on my TF.

I mean, we all have the same TF right? and upgraded to the same ICS released by Asus.

If you are getting these problems, you did something wrong and there is probably something you aren't telling us.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] msaraiva:
I won't lose my time responding to the other guy, since he only seems to want to fight. But since you were polite, i'll answer to what you said.

First, not all TFs are the same. If they were, NVFlash would work on all models without restrictions. There are some differences between batches, even if they are subtle. As i said, i don't have multiple problems. There's only one: random reboots. And if you want to know the exact steps i did to get to this state, read this post:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1518552
[Eee Pad Transformer General] horndroid:
Did you try COMPLETE wipe and reinstalling ICS?

By complete wipe, I mean:

1. Factory reset from settings interface

2. Factory reset from cold boot menu

3. Wipe data/factory reset and Wipe cache partition from CWM menu

4. All format options in Mounts and Storage Menu of CWM.

5. Clear cache and dalvik cache from CWM menu

6. Reboot to recovery

7. THEN INSTALL ICS

I know it's redundant but do all that. If your problem still persists, your TF is defective. But from your posts, it just seems like you don't wanna do a hard reset.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] SiNJiN76:
I have the PERFECT TF. :D:p. Or maybe I know what I'm doing?:eek: Doubt it...:D. But Im happy I have had zero issues.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] AstroTrain:
Reading some of these recent posts above, I am appalled that some users would defame others who are experiencing the reboot issue as either mentally retarded not able to hit a button correctly for an OTA update or the issue as a nonissue because they don't personally experience this on their device.

just pathetic . . .

Coming from stock honeycomb and never Ever rooted the device received the OTA update on Friday and getting 4 reboots overnight or several hrs of sleep, all those reboots must be a figment of my imagination.

It wasn't a precedent that was established with the transformer Prime ICS update, no those 50 page threads of Prime users getting the reboots wasn't at all related to bugs that Asus had to patch with further releases . . .

I have nothing against Asus having to release further updates to correct the issue with some users (like myself) but to sweep this KNOWN bug that affected so many users under the rug because some weren't affected is a joke.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] tweaked:
Nobody is sweeping anything...xda is not Asus..nothing can be done here. Call Asus..you ppl are weird...complaining on a Dev site, where you aren't even rooted will fix nothing for you..nothing.

You can't even try reinstalling. You aren't rooted...you have no recourse and no o.e here can walk you through anything because you are stock.. how hard is this to get? And let's be honest, there's less then 50 of you peeps with this issue. There were thousands of installs..........
[Eee Pad Transformer General] xzilem:
Maybe it's because of the batch TF just like you said? Mine B70, what's yours?
