Problem with update

Hi all, I'm new to this forum and I'd like to ask a question regarding the following problem:

I've TF101 with stock ICS 4.0.3 rooted with CWM 5.5.0.4,

today I saw that there is a firmware update available from ASUS 9.2.1.21 and decided to install it.

I made a backup with CWM and then ran OTA ROOT Keeper to backup my root, then ran the update. My tablet has been restarted and stucked at CWM menu screen.

I tried to make a restore but after it finished and I choose the option in CWM "reboot system now" the tablet has been restarted and entered again in CWM menu.

Please HELP !!!
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Woody:
Couple of things. You are new so, we'll give you that but there are a few things wrong here.

First you cannot receive the OTA with a custome recovery like CWM. You'll need to go the the Epic Noob Guide and check out how to install the Stock Recovery.

Second, you used OTA Rootkeeper. Good job with that bc with the ICS .21 they closed the exploit to allow Root access, so you lose root, it is gone (for now) unless you are NVflash-able.

Third, CWM 5.5.0.4 is an bad recovery and will throw you into a recovery loop, which you are in now. There is a fix for it either in the General or Q&A section. It has since been fixed but since you are in the middle of utter chaos, you'll need to read that thread to find out how. It's OP is updated frequently, so there shoudl be no problem.

Good Luck.

Yep got my update build number 9.2.1.21 today! Hoping to fix the rebooting problem.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] GalaxySdude:
Well, I've been running .21 since Monday night and it seems to have cured my SoD. However, I woke up this morning to find my tab in a bootloop - first time I've ever seen that :(. Had to hold down the power button to get it out of the loop. Let's hope they have a 4.0.4 build in the pipe.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] :
I spoke to soon. Almost exactly 48 hours after applying the update, I just had my first random reboot. It was stuck on the boot screen.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] fldude99:
No, but I just cleared data in the app and let it re-sync. Hopefully that will help.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] CheyenneDonna:
Three days after the latest update I had a random reboot-stuck on the spinning circle. Slightly better since I was having them 2 or 3 times a day. But the battery life has gone down and My Library app still does not work - freezes every time I open it. Stock rom for me.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] zamboniman87:
Note... if you want root, then root and use voodoo ota rootkeeper BEFORE upgrading to .21. Right now there is no way to root a completely unrooted transformer with .21 installed.

I updated (already having been rooted) and was having more stuck screens and reboots than ever. So today I wiped everything and installed .21 unrooted. Now I can root... I can't even downgrade because I don't have a custom recovery anymore either. Arg....

oh, I believe this only applies to the later transformers - ones with a higher BXX number. Otherwise nvflash can be used for the lower ones..
[Eee Pad Transformer General] C.Flat:
Already had 1 random reboot... Also only noticed now that this isn't 4.0.4. no SOD yet though =D
[Eee Pad Transformer General] dbenyakar:
I am still waiting for the fix but last week I installed Wake Lock app and since then I had no single reboot nor SoD.

Before that I had SoD every single day.

Recommended until Asus posts a decent fix. (it might take a while)
[Eee Pad Transformer General] tpjets62:
I was going to do a factory reset but if I cant reroot .21 I will wait. I had used ViperMod on .17 and had no issues and was waiting to see if any one had tried rooting on this newest update....
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Woody:
If you already have root on .17, just install OTA Rootkeeper to back it up. Then hit Temp Unroot, accept the OTA and the Restore Root and there you go. Worked for me ever since 3.2 all the way up to this latest.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] skeeterpro:
Been following this and can echo some issues with the newest update. Was rooted (ViperMod)/CWM 5.x.x.4. (TF101 B40 series) Loaded the new update and fell into the boot loop (would go to CWM whenever booted). NVFlashed ICS stock ROM and all is fine. Tried the update once more while on stock 4.0.3. Screen went black and nothing.... So re-NVFlashed back to stock ICS.

Am staying until bugs worked out.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] tpjets62:
I did this with no problems. But Im planning on doing a factory reset/wipe in the near future which will obviously nuke everything. I am wondering if I will be able to root it again after the wipe on the newest firmware. If not, I'll wait till there is a new exploit out. I used ViperMod last time and worked flawlessly. :)

WW Version

does this update has alredy shipped to WW versions? I'm in Mexico and as last night, I haven't received the update...

Thanks
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Mutnat:
This worked like a charm for me too. This was the first time I tried it, since I had heard that 21 wasn't currently rootable without it.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] akshayc1111:
Seems to solve RR and boot screen hangup

So far, my transformer has not faced a random reboot (i think) and definitely no hanging up on the boot screen since the OTA. Hopefully this is the update that my transformer needed.

Keeping fingers crossed. I really dont want to edit this post :)
[Eee Pad Transformer General] digital4282:
I had my TF reboot on it's own yesterday, AND freeze at the boot logo all in one shot. This is with the newest firmware, hasn't done it again though, nothing like the previous update.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] oldcpu:
I found only minor improvement in reboot issue from firmware update ...

My experience is this latest update has reduced the frequency of reboots in half.

I state that noting with my B70 I have always had difficult reproducing the reboots, SOD, .... To reproduce them, I have had to leave my Transformer powered 24/7, which is not my nominal way of operating. (Typically I would switch off 3 times/day). But if I powered 24/7, I was able every 1st or 2nd day to discover a reboot or SOD.

With the update, it now takes 2 to 4 days to obtain the same.

My view still is the problem is mostly upstream, and nothing TECHNICAL I have read thus far suggests otherwise (wrt this being mostly an upstream issue).

---------- Post added at 11:41 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:34 AM ----------

My view is that is mostly anti-Asus posturing. I've read the same anti-Asus views in MANY other posts from you.

I have chatted with some users with both non-Asus phones with ICS and non-Asus tablets with ICS, and they are also experiencing ICS instability. I have also read the same on forums of users with ICS in non-Asus forums with non-Asus hardware. They are having problems with ICS.

... so if one were to extend the logic of waiting for complete stability, then one should stay away from all ICS implementations and go for solid Honeycomb implementations no matter what supplier, because ICS has not proven itself on hardware.

I also put the above in the context of a user who has a lot of difficulty in reproducing the reboot/SOD problem with ICS, and I am happy with my Transformer and with ICS. To obtain the problems others have seen, I need to operate my Transformer in a manner which is contrary to the nominal way I prefer to operate my Transformer.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] fldude99:
+1. I have posted in another thread that I'm of the mind that android has reached a crossroads of sorts with ICS. I won't go near ICS on my S2 currently on GB after this whole snafu.

Edit: Thanks for the input on how ICS is working on other devices-mainly phones. I hope android continues to have a future, despite the widespread issues of ICS..which seems isolated to tablets?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] wilx:
ICS is fine on my S2, had it on about a month no problems
[Eee Pad Transformer General] nanobutter:
I've only had one SOD and that's it so far working great battery life is awesome to! :)

ICS works fine on my nexus s. It doesn't on my TF101.

Glad to read ICS works well on your Nexus S.

[Eee Pad Transformer General] kilovar40:
Received my WW OTA update to .21 2 days ago.

No RR or SOD by this morning. Never had many of those but every once in a while it did happen.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] rygor:

Since update yesterday afternoon no single reboot or SoD :)

took a bit (~2 months) but looks like its fixed....
[Eee Pad Transformer General] cspiby:
Oh ffs, stop saying it's fixed, it bloody well isn't.

36 hours is hardly a test!
[Eee Pad Transformer General] shawde:
Same here. Only have one SoD after update. But, battery life is way way better than before.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] kilovar40:
Got home tonight and found the tablet dead. So after everything worked perfectly for 2 days with excellent battery life, it suddenly drained the battery from 70% to dead within 8 hrs.

Weird!!!!!
[Eee Pad Transformer General] st0nedpenguin:
Still on .17 with Guevor's kernel, by the sound of it this is more stable than the latest Asus update.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] awicks:
I installed the official OTA update on Monday evening. Since then, I have been using my tablet as I normally do. I have not received any random reboots or sleep-of-deaths like I did on the previous update.

I went from stock + rooted + CWM --> stock (ROM and recovery)--> stock (ROM and recovery) updated.

Deep sleep works well on the new update - tablet was left running all day yesterday and it only lost 6% of battery.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] pacoromo:
A bit better

I was (like most people here) frustrated with the Asus ICS update, which I applied manually since I rooted the tablet a while ago, and I did wipe the tablet before I upgraded it. With ICS, got random reboots, video & audio glitches, and frequent SOD's (one every 2-3 days). I got a B50 WW tablet.

So, mostly because it was barely usable, and worried about overheating the unit or damaging the batteries, I decided to downgrade to HC, because as far as I could remember it was really stable and fitted all my needs, so I did an NVflash to stock, unrooted latest Asus HC, and the tablet worked perfectly.

But I still wanted ICS, and a lot of available 3rd party ROM's do warn about compatibility issues or partial hw support, so I applied again the Asus ICS update, but this time OTA since my tablet wasn't rooted anymore (because of the NVFlash HC downgrade).

Well,I WISH I DID THAT since the beginning, because the random reboots, audio & video glitches are gone, and in about two weeks I only had one SOD, which isn't a good thing but at least it's not every 2-3 days, a lot more usable now.

The only "problem" right now is the random on/off by the screen in standby. I found out that turning off the wifi before locking reduces the problem.

Hope that Asus resolves this issues soon, HC on this machine was perfect,
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Jazd71:
Had a crash and stuck on Asus screen within 12 hours of update, then wouldnt wake up. Had to factory reset and now have started testing again, now in second day good so far.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] :
About 48 hours after the update, i've had 2 reboots and one of them hang in asus logo! Was better with .17 where i didn't have rr's for long.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] rykatemom:
I'm beginning to grow curious about the dock software, and the interface between the dock and the tablet being the issue. Case in point: I have a B60 TF and dock. I did the ICS OTA update like most did, without a wipe, and began getting RR and SOD shortly after updating, along with the media.process error. I eagerly installed the .21 update, again without wiping, and have noticed much better battery life, and a significant decrease in RR/SOD issues (they're pretty rare now), but the media.process errors continue unabated. Last weekend I had cause to go entirely without the dock for almost the whole weekend. I had ZERO media.process errors, and no RR/SOD issues (granted, it was only 48 hrs, and I ususally go more than 48 hrs between these issues, but still). As soon as I started using my dock again, BAM. Constant media.process errors, 2 SOD, 1 RR, all within 12 hrs of plugging the dock in again. The RR/SOD seems to have stopped after the initial rounds of them, but the media.process error has not stopped.

I am not a code person, but I can follow directions, and am pretty comfortable messing about in the code of my tablet, provided someone can give me clear instructions what to do. Here's my theory: I think ASUS neglected to update something in the drivers for the dock when they ran the upgrade to ICS. So, if I am right, some of the errors we're seeing may be a code issue (at least in my machine). Can anyone tell me how to check to make sure that A) I have the most up-to-date dock firmware, and B) if I do not, how do I find and install it?

I realise I may be TOTALLY off in left field here, just some random theorizing based on my observations. Thanks for any constructive input!
[Eee Pad Transformer General] knoxploration:
Sorry, didn't read the post beyond this point. I'm not saying there are no issues with the dock; in fact as buggy and held together with band-aids as everything else is, I'd be amazed if it doesn't.

The dock is not "the issue" (emphasis mine), though. It's been weeks since I last even used my dock, but I see the problems very regularly. To date I've never seen a single reboot on the dock, but dozens and dozens when it isn't in use.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] rykatemom:
Hmmm. That's interesting. Was your TF101 in the dock when you updated to ICS originally? Mine was- maybe that has something to do with it. I agree with you that it's definitely an very individual thing. I think all of us that are noticing these problems (SOD, RR, media.process fail) are having it occur due to a bunch of different errors in our tablets- kind of like point mutations in genetics with people.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] knoxploration:
99.99% sure it wasn't in the dock when updated.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] rykatemom:
Now I'm really wondering about it. Maybe I'll experiment a bit, and wipe/reinstall ICS with the tab out of the dock, see of that makes a difference for me. I agree with you that you dock isn't likely all of the problem, but it may be part. I'll post the results of my little experiment. Thanks for the feedback!
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Danny1st:
I was having the notorious reboot with the added suck on Asus screen. I tried the wipe reboot method to no avail. I read somewhere that it may be the sd card (I think it was this post, but I don't have the time to reread through the whole thing) anyhow, pulled the sd card, did a complete wipe, and now going on day four with no R/R with suck Asus screen. Before I would not make it to day two. Sorry for the repeat, but hope it helps someone else.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] swissynopants:
I do think the dock has an issue somewhere.

I have a TF101, B70, never rooted and I know I updated the device when unplugged. Got too excited and applied it.

----

In this case, the battery was fully drained on both.

This is the second time I leave the tablet plugged in the dock which is plugged to the charger for a few hours and this is the second time only the dock gets charged.

Docked, the screen is stuck at the first Asus logo splash screen.

Undocked, the tablet shows me the red battery symbol when I attempt to turn it on.

The tablet will only charge when I undock it.

Had a look at the battery graph. Can some one explain the blue line to me:

Surely the dock shouldn't just lose all its battery juice like that. no?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] zegermans:
My B30 TF101 hasn't had a random reboot or SOD since the update on Monday, and I was getting at least 1 per day.

Things are looking up.

FYI I have it in the dock 99% of the time with an SD card in.

It was in the dock when it updated.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] bsoplinger:
It's the scale that's throwing you off. That steeply ramped blue dock line is about an hour or so wide. So if you run the CPU full out in some crazy boot loop it will eat up the battery. I've had exactly the same discharge graph as you and that was the only thing I could come up with.

Cheers, as frustrating as it is and as much as I love this product, it makes sense. I'm guessing that wake lock temp fix won't work here. Time for a full wipe/restore.

Here's hoping a fix is inbound!
