Agreed, however not for the RR issues, but rather the External SD mounting issue that this new update is causing. See other "Offical" thread page 52.

If you are rooted and don't want the update hassling you for the next few days until you decide you want to take it or not, just go into Titanium and Freeze DMClient and poof, the "System Updates" banner is gone from your About Tablet screen.

[Eee Pad Transformer General] wingzero2085:
The gaming video issues are definitely not fixed, at least not as far as Angry Birds is concerned. Not even 5 minutes of playtime in Angry Birds Space before a screen flicker and a minute later a total app freeze. Though honestly, I'd have been surprised if they did fix that just yet.

Time will tell on the reboots/SOD for me... I don't get them daily, so I'll be waiting at least a week or more to really decide on that.

Noob question. I do have OTA rootkeeper and of course have my SU backed up. But am I correct in assuming from what people are saying that if you have Clockwork recovery installed that you won't be able to install the update OTA? Or is it akin to the previous update where you had to flash it off of an external sd card?

Thanks!

Tried to update turned off root in voodoo and no go .Then tried flashing zip from microSD...no go Then tried flashing zip from internal SD still no go ...any help? Using the download package that was posted earlier.really stuck can't figure it out.do I have to go back to stock? Or would a cwm zip work? I really don't have any problem with ICS right now but would like to update

Hi im new to this,i have downloaded this package, how should I apply this update ? Please give me a hint
[Eee Pad Transformer General] antron007:
I tried to flash the zip file with team rouge clockwork and it failed. Where can i find asus stock recovery? I have otakeeper so Can i flash the firmware from asus tf site and then take ota then re root with otakeeper?

Thanks in advance.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] thunderman98:
Not on Asus website yet.I also have the problem,usually takes a least a week or more before being posted on their site..hopefully someone will make a cwm zip.Asus website has earlier versions..full download 312 MB I think.just make sure you get the right country download.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] antron007:
Maybe i misspoke. I meant the one that's on there now. 9.2.1.17. Will that flash via clockwork?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] combat goofwing:
Will there be a flashable zip for this to update via cwm

I'm sure there will be. This is pretty new so give devs some times to do there thing.

This update bricked my TF101.... Once i rebooted, i was stuck on the splash screen, trying to boot into recovery freezes once i hit the volume up button to confirm and it says its starting the recovery kernal image. ADB doesnt work, so im stuck...
[Eee Pad Transformer General] baseballfanz:
Did you have stock recovery or cwm recovery before the update?

Is your tablet nvflash compatible?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] baseballfanz:
If you're trying to flash it with cwm it's NOT going to work. Wait for a cwm version.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] just lou:
Didn't you post yesterday that you bricked your TF101 messing around with ICS and CWM?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] antron007:
I got 9.2.1.17 from asus site, put it on/sdcard/ and tried to flash it and it locked up so i powered down and reboot. After I booted back up I had lost root and in my notifications it said I had an update available and that it was .17 so I flashed it and it worked. Then I re rooted and did the otakeeper. Then got the ota from settings/tablet and it went fine. I used otakeeper to restore root and im all good again. Except the recovery installer app that I used to install clockwork won't recognize root.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] PMad:
I was using CWM, i had Koush's (sp?) CWM installed and was experiencing the problem where everytime you reboot, you are pulled back into CWM. I had to flash another to fix it. After installing the new version of CWM, i did the update and bricked it. Im using the B90 version of the TF101, SBKv2. Keep reading! Good news below.

I did, wasnt so much messing around, just tried to do the update. Found this thread and thought i might post a warning to those in case more testing needs to be done on a rooted ics release.

BUT! I made it into the linux mode where i can choose to wipe data or boot into ICS, i chose wipe data, and now im booted! So if anyone else has that problem, boot into linux mode and wipe data!
[Eee Pad Transformer General] just lou:
At least you're back in action. ... Rule of thumb. Never attempt an OTA with CWM installed.

[Eee Pad Transformer General] knoxploration:
To be fair to him, no, he didn't. He said he had installed CWM, and then got offered the firmware update, and it bricked after he accepted the update:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=25194524#post25194524

Now, whether the bricking was the fault of the update or what he'd previously installed, I'm not going to judge. Your post makes it sound like he bricked it first, then tried to blame the update, though, and that's not the case.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] koxler:
Downloading update now.

For the people who have had the update for a while does it seem to fix the random reboot issue? That is my only problem with this device. I haven't enjoyed using it since I went to ICS.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] El Niche:
Same here. I haven't been able to completely enjoy ICS in the TF101. I just upgraded but will have to wait as usually my reboots happen after 1 or 2 days (or when I open too many apps, so I'm gonna push it tonight). Unfortunately, in the other thread people are reporting it hasnt been fixed. If thats true, I'll be back to using Wake Lock.

I hope Asus can deliver the 4.0.4 or a future update soon if the reboots continue...
[Eee Pad Transformer General] knoxploration:
No, it doesn't fix random reboots, boot loops, lockups, or sleep of death.

Thinking about just freezing DMclient with TB for awhile.

Is the firmware listed with DMclient the firmware that wants to be installed, or perhaps something different?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Woody:
Doesn't matter what it says. Just freeze it and you'll be good.

I took the update, kept Root and have been playing around. Everything seems fine for now. I have been using it for the past couple of hours like I normally do and no lag or freeze or mid app reboot. Angry Birds Space works for as long as my attention will allow it. Haven't tested deep sleep yet so we'll see.

I am experiencing some strange touch sensitivity but that could be the operator's fault. I froze the same apps I had frozen before the update so hopefully that will keep my same luck with the RRs.

If anyone wants me to post a list of my apps I froze or my configuration just ask. And I don't use Wakelock.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] rockylittlewolf:
Update failed

Update failed for me. I am rooted with stock recovery. I am wondering if Superuser is causing it to fail?

Has anyone had success with SU installed?

I have also deleted some of the Asus apps. Could that be the problem?

First post:)

Thanks XDA
[Eee Pad Transformer General] baseballfanz:
Yes the deleted system apps is what causing the failure
[Eee Pad Transformer General] rockylittlewolf:
Thanks for the quick reply.

I did back them up with TB but a few of them will not reinstall. I will work on it.

Thanks again
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Danzano:
Use a root explorer put them in system/app set permissions to rw-r-r then reboot and they should work :D
[Eee Pad Transformer General] rockylittlewolf:
I have done that for a few of the Asus apps and it has worked fine.

It's not working for 2 apps. The Vibe and MEar apps are giving me grief. I drop them in the system/app folder but they are not showing up after reboot. :confused:

[Eee Pad Transformer General] quint9:
It's so random how an update like this will fix some Transformers and make some worse or do nothing at all. My device was randomly rebooting, giving me the black screen of death, and rebooting into the Asus screen many times daily. I was ready to get a different device or try and see if rooting and a custom ROM helped when this update came along and fixed everything. I don't know if my transformer is the B50, 60,or 70 but I got it right when they came out. Maybe the model # is what makes the difference.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] fregor:
Is your s/n label scratched off? If not, the first 3 characters is the "B" model.

Mine is B60 and it is really acting up after the ICS upgrade.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] :
I noticed the update prompt last night. I am 100% stock... no root, no unlock, no custom ROMs. I disabled then uninstalled WakeLock. Applied the update and watch a little Netflix. I then put the tablet to sleep. I'll check it when I get home today to see if it fixed the random reboots.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] paraag:
Sleep of death

I havent applied the new update yet, but I am a little curious on the Sleep of Death that many have mentioned. Can someone please describe what the symptoms /effects are of the same?

I have had so many boot locks, random reboots etc., since the previous OTA for ICS, I am actually not sure if I have experienced the SOD problem too.:confused:

Thanks in advance!

By the way - wake lock definitely helped me with the random reboot and boot locks, but I feel that my battery is draining faster than before after using wake lock.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] PeQuEsan:
That's my case also. Wakelock helps, but drains battery... 2 days max not even touching the tablet.

bye!
[Eee Pad Transformer General] GenghisKhan67:
Just installed the update last night (over stock), everything seems to be working as it should. I'm crossing my fingers. :)

Question: from reading other threads, I need to go back to a previous version if I want to gain root, correct? My tablet's serial number is B50xxxx, will the nvFlash method work?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Woody:
See my post in the Epic Noob Guide regarding this.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] GenghisKhan67:
Just did, thanks for the quick reply. I added a follow-up question though. ;)
[Eee Pad Transformer General] knoxploration:
Sleep of Death is very simple. You put the tablet down, leave it for a bit, and when you come back, tapping the power button won't bring it back to life. Nor will holding it in for a few seconds, like it should if the device was simply switched off. You have to hold the power button in for a good ten seconds or so, triggering a reboot. On rebooting, you'll find that the battery is not drained, and hence that was not the reason for the shutdown.

Yep - this new FW update *does not fix* the RR's or the SOD's. Thanks a ton ASUS... :mad:
[Eee Pad Transformer General] paraag:
Thanks - yes, I have the sleep of death problems too :mad:
[Eee Pad Transformer General] aptmx:
Mine seems to be fine after the update. No RR's or SOD for me yet. Have been up for a little over 24 hours....will continue to keep an eye on it...
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Nonek:
This may not be a consolation to those that say it doesn't help them, but I was having SOD EVERY time it went to sleep with my 32gig SD card plugged in. Without it in there it ran just fine. I had been running the stock rooted .17 and had tried the other ROMS but really just liked the stock setup with one of the over clocked kernels.

Every single one of these custom kernels out there was causing me to have issues.

I flashed back to stock by using the .17 firmware on the ASUS site to restore the recovery and kernel and then let the update do it's thing. It has been perfect every since.. Had my SD card in all night.. Woke up twice to wake it up and let it fall asleep again and it just works.

And of course I didn't unroot myself with OTA root keeper and through my updates to get to stock again I lost my root.. ahem..(live and learn) but I gotta tell ya. right now I could give two shisters about root.. I have a 32gig Micro and a 32 gig SD card in there and I'm a happy camper.

Thanks ASUS. Rockin update.

And if this fixes my occasional loss of Bluetooth tethering, which happens when I link to my car to play music and nav while I connect to my phone using Tablet Talk for external texting, than I'll be ready to give up my first born. :-)

I know this can be painful, but if your having all kinds of problems than I would suggest a wipe.. get back to stock.. and let it update. I mean I miss root and when an update comes out or I feel like wiping all my stuff than I will prob get back there, but the SOD was KILLLLLLLLINNNNNNNNGGGGGG me..

When I updated to the last update my dock started acting weird... in the ICS Browser (and stock) whenever I click on a link it ALWAYS opens in a new tab. Also, I cannot wake it from sleep by tapping a key on the keyboard, I need to use the tablet's power button. It also randomly wakes up from sleep when docked and the screen up.

Does anyone know if this new update from yesterday fixes any of that? It was fine on the initial ICS update *sigh*

On paper it sounds great. But after the problems the Prime had, and how they've screwed up the TF101 with ICS, I wouldn't buy another Asus tablet until all the user reviews are in.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] JDrey:
Just to get my vote in here... I've got a B70 that was having RR's pretty often, and occasional SOD's an stuck boots ever since the ICS update. I've never rooted or installed wakelock or anything else to try to fix the problem. The new update seems to have fixed the RR and other problems I was having. I've got a 19-hour uptime so far without being plugged into the charger, and the most I was ever able to get before that was a couple of hours usually.

Crossing my fingers that this holds up, and hopefully the rest of you with probs get them cleared up soon. I know how frustrating it can be.

[Eee Pad Transformer General] knoxploration:
...and a lower-clocked processor. And standard instead of low-power RAM. And less storage. And no flash for the rear camera. And thicker. And heavier. And worse battery life. And MUCH worse battery life with the optional dock.

But yeah, in other respects, it's largely the same as the Prime with a poorer screen. ;-)

On the plus side, it's made of plastic, which will prove much longer-lasting and less disruptive to GPS / WiFi / BlueTooth than the case of the Prime.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Danzano:
By a couple 100 mhz not much and can probably be o/c later.

DDR3 ram personally I like that idea

32gb plus a 64 or 32gb micro sd or a 500gb or 1tb external hdd what's the issue with space??

Flash for a tablet cam sorry but I dont see that being a big one

And the battery life is better than the prime dock or not

Heavier yes thicker yes but not by alot and to me half a kg would still not be a deal breaker.

I'm happy with my B60 and will probably not upgrade for another year or so just thought your points where a bit flawed. :D

[Eee Pad Transformer General] Woody:
Is anyone noticing their touch sensitivity is slightly off from what it used to be? Maybe a bit more sensitive and not quite as accurate, if you know what I mean.

Also I have noticed the browser is slower and there is considerably less free RAM, even with all nonessential bloat frozen. Was getting mid to low 400s and now it hovers around 320. I know 320 is still OK but that is an 80meg drop and my configuration is identical pre and post update.

One last thing. Where is this "set browser to desktop all the time" setting? I know I am just missing it and can do it for individual pages but I would like it all the time. Saw someone mentioned it 20 pages back or so but it is alluding me.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Danzano:
They said 12-16 hours for the tf101 i get 18-23 hours off a single charge if im out for the weekend and have to conserve battery (granted weekend at home constant gamming etc i get 8 hours tops :P).

Plus if you read other reviews it does have a slower rate of drain in the pinion of most of the reviews compared to the prime.

Im not saying its amazing battery life its not bad and once rooted could have the same battery life as the tf101.

It is a good tablet for a good price yeah there is better available but if I had to upgrade now that would be top 3 in my list.

You claimed it had better battery life than the Prime. That was clearly wrong. Whatever you do to drag out battery life on the TF300, you could do on the Prime too. My point stands; the TF300 is much less than a Prime with a different screen.
