@j21blackjack: I would just download the firmware from the asus site or mirror, extract the first zip file. Put that zip file in your /sdcard, just copy it over to the root directory shown in Windows. Reboot your tablet, update it. It will wipe everything, so backup your apps and settings. Then use the new, safer, and easier rooting method for .29 and above. So at least you have a stock build.prop file and a cleaner method.

I did this and it worked fine. Once you restore firmware manually, it wipes everything so you loose root and your su backup, but since the new method doesn't require sparkroot or downgrading it's much easier to root. Just enable usb debugging and unknown source installs. I didn't need to install the drivers included on my Win8x64 install.

---

I like how the first 2 pages on this thread are telling the OP he is wrong, lol.

I got the notification today and updated but something went wrong because my firmware version still say .29. I kept checking for updates, said no firmware update is available. I know it changes the version number, so apparently it didn't apply.

I did delete some asus junk off my tablet, but I backed everything up, could the update fail because it's missing one of those apps?
[Transformer TF300T General] j21blackjack:
I guess that may be the only option. I rooted the easy way from .17, then manually updated to .29 and kept root. Ill download from the asus site and update.
[Transformer TF300T General] j21blackjack:
Well, im updated now, lost root of course, but I didn't get a data reset either.
[Transformer TF300T General] deathskater:
I updated to .30 through the OTA and used Ota roor keeper and kept root without any problem.
[Transformer TF300T General] supersoulfly:
OTA US.30 update received in Seoul Korea. Switch to original build.prop and able to keep root with rootkeeper.

All is well.:)

And getting as good as scores as ever on quadrant, even without the modded build.prop

Using ezoverclock. The first score is balance and the second score is performance mode.

Bought mine in the US in Imperial County California. Vacationing in North Carolina and just got the update. fwiw I have my device "encrypted" via the built in option and had no issues.

I left the device charging and came back an hour later and it was done.(it may have taken far less than the hour to complete)

Access rights issue on Voodoo Restore

Very strange: I restored root on .30 through Voodoo (did the same on 29). Voodoo confirmed I have root but then I noticed that es file explorer wasn't able to change permissions on my build.prop. I opened Titanium backup, I have the pro-version, and it said I had "non-optimal access rights" and it could fix it. I clicked to fix and got the message, "Access rights on the "su" binary were successfully corrected from "0:2000 [6755]" to "0:0 [6755]" I then rebooted, titanium is fine but changing file permissions keeps failing. Anyone else have this experience?

Update: Deleted root on Voodoo, then rooted with Miloj's method and all is fixed.
[Transformer TF300T General] scarmona:
ok, cold booting doesn't seem to work. Will I lose root if I do a factory reset? (I used sparky root and have ota root keeper)

thanks!

[Transformer TF300T General] ubcjack:
I had same issue as you and I did the fix prompted in titanium backup. Somehow update binary still complains can't mount system as read... I then went in ota root keep, temp unroot and restore root again. Now all is well.

I'm not sure if the fix in titanium backup made any difference...
[Transformer TF300T General] NCRoadster:
I feel the same. Chrome is running much better now.
[Transformer TF300T General] Gam3r 4 Life:
Hey guys. Im the one that came up with the Titanium Backup replace CM and DM files method. Ive read the rest of the thread since I posted that and seen that it isnt working for anyone.

This leads me to believe that it was just a coincidence that I got the OTA right after I did that. I was never positive that what I did fixed it, and now Im pretty sure that it had nothing to do with it.

So this might be good news for those of you that had forgotten to fix the build prop, or had some other issue with a failed OTA.

It most likely means that there is some kind of delay from the time that the original OTA was pushed to your device, and when it realizes it failed. Once the servers realize it didnt work you should get another chance.

If thats not it, then maybe the reason it worked for me finally was because I downgraded to .17 using the method I described here. And then once the servers saw that my device was on .17 it pushed me the .30 OTA again. Not sure, but thats my guesses.

Can someone that was on .29 and had a failed OTA confirm that later they received another chance at the .30 OTA? Thanks

For those of you running Chrome I have a question. It doesnt bother you that no sites with flash work in Chrome? Or am I missing something. Ive tried to use it in the past, and just stopped because no flash worked anywhere.

The firmware on their downloads site always has the same link, aside from the part with the region, so all you need is a direct link to one of them, change two letters and unless they aren't uploaded yet, it works :P
[Transformer TF300T General] EndlessDissent:
Not missing Flash here. Flash is dead. Even Adobe refuses to support it. I've seen three videos that required Flash in the last two weeks, and I wouldn't have watched them anyway. It's kind of time for you to forget about Flash and move on with everyone else. Any sites that still use Flash probably don't deserve your visit anyway. The site's maintainers need to implement their pages in proper HTML5 and nix the stupid Flash. It's not even an option anymore since Adobe has declared Flash dead. They just have to, for their own good and the good of their visitors.

It shouldn't. I downloaded it and flashed in cwm. Only needed to reinstall cwm and root. All my apps weren't touched.
[Transformer TF300T General] kjwaugh:

Installed like a charm with ClockworkMod recovery- I am unlocked - but then I had to re-install CM Recovery and then root again. I look forward to the cyanogen Rom which I hope will not require so much work.
[Transformer TF300T General] stingwasted:
I notice everyone is using CWM for manual updates. I've been using TWRP and it just freezes. Should I switch recoveries? I thought Clockwork was having some major bugs on TF300 and Team Win was the recommended? I'm on .29 and can't get .30 to update.
[Transformer TF300T General] dnaL0R:
my update keeps failing midway thru... i'm not sure what's going on, anyone else experiencing this???

please help :crying:

your probably using a modified build.prop, change it to the original and try again.
[Transformer TF300T General] nebrando:
Just curious where you are experiencing the freeze?

Honestly I read something wrong lol totally did not need the CN sku I was confused about something but figured it out. Thanks for the info though.
[Transformer TF300T General] nebrando:
I really like TWRP. It works well and makes backups very quickly. I use it on my Nexus.

I tried to flash this with TWRP (after my first reply to your post) installed on my TF300 and it hung on the flashing screen. I installed CWM and it installed the update with no problems.

I would love to use TWRP in the future, but at this point it doesn't seem to work as well as CWM.
[Transformer TF300T General] Sib64:
You can find the updating of all firmwares and kernel in =>

Transformer TF300T Android Development =>the index of TF300t
[Transformer TF300T General] EndlessDissent:
If you want this fixed, you need to reflash TWRP, reflash the stock ROM, and get the recovery.log. Then, PM it to eyeballer or dees_troy.

So far, a lot of people are complaining about this, but no one has provided a log to the developers. None of the TWRP devs have a TF300. They can't fix the problem without a log. They have explained this many times on both XDA and rootzwiki, but still people complain without providing logs.

Anyone notice the front facing camera is no longer auto gaining exposure when it's dark for face unlock?
[Transformer TF300T General] paedz718:
the same thing happened to me since I forgot to change the modified prop build back to the original one mentioned by atomicblue. I was able to reboot back into .29. But now checking the firmware update it states no update is found, but I have to believe it was downloaded somewhere. I tried clearing cache for both the CM & DM Client, force stopping and rebooting like I read elsewhere, but no dice, still no update found. I downloaded the .30 firmware and I'm going to try a manual update later by dropping it onto the root of a Micro SD card. I'll let you know how it works out.
[Transformer TF300T General] j21blackjack:
This is exactly what I did also. I just manually updated. It did not wipe data like it was supposed to, but it did remove root. OTA rootkeeper would not restore it. About 24 hours after the manual update my touchscreen went crazy. I couldn't do anything hardly, my taps were all over the place. Don't know what did it, but the only way I could fix it was a full data wipe. So, after the data wipe it took all of 5 minutes to root using the .bat file in the rooting thread. Unfortunately I failed to realize that my titanium backup folder was on the internal storage, so I also lost all my apps and saved data. That really sucks, but at least I won't make the same mistake again.
[Transformer TF300T General] paedz718:
wow, I hope I don't experience the same issue after I manually update. I figured I'd wait a day or 2 to see if the new firmware was picked up again and then do the manual update. not a big deal if I have to wipe tho. I don't have much data on it and I was considering it anyway since the Pad was buggy since I bought it.

I should have read the whole thread as well, if you manually do the update, you lose root since everything gets wiped, including your su backup, but you can get root again on the .30 firmware using the Debugfs automated root tool. Going to just wait it out to since if I get another chance at a OTA update since I'd like to keep the Pad as is
[Transformer TF300T General] w3by:
Is anyone using ASUS's File Manager and has problems with it after upgrading to .30? It worked without a problem on .29, but now it force closes after a few seconds ... tried clearing data already, and it still doesn't work.

(and yes, I know I can use different file manager, even got ES File Manager installed, but the stock app looks nicer)
[Transformer TF300T General] stingwasted:
I will do this. So use twrp recovery and stock rom. Manually install the update, let it hang for a few minutes, restart and then post recovery.log, correct? And when I flash clockwork mod the only option I see is for tf101. Will this work on other transformer models? I'm looking at the touch version. Thanks!
[Transformer TF300T General] EndlessDissent:
Please do not flash Clockwork Mod recovery from ROM Manager. It will brick your tablet. And especially don't flash anything that you know is for other Transformer models. Use TF300 recoveries, ROMs, and kernels ONLY.

I'm not sure on the exact procedure to get logs from TWRP (my tablet is still locked for now, so I can't check; plus, I would have gotten the logs myself), so you may have to PM eyeballer or dees_troy to find out.

Seems as though i have a permanent ghost image of poweramp on my screen. I only leave it on in the car maybe 20 min twice a week for about 3 months now... Anyone else?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] punwik:
I had a similar problem where the keyboard itself burned into my screen and you could slightly see it on like white backgrounds like google search. I got sick of it after a while and I took it into sprint and told them what was going on and they took it for a couple of hours. When I came to pick it up they said they had to order me a replacement. So take it to them, its a hardware problem!

Good luck bro
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] VeNuMuS:
20 min twice a week comes to 40 min a week. 40 min a week times 4 weeks in a month equals 160 min a month. 160 min a month times 3 months equals 480 min in 3 months. 480 divided by 60 min in an hour equals 8 hrs exactly. So your phone basically has been showing the same interface for 8 hrs straight. Maybe that's why it burned in.

Correct me if I'm wrong.:)

Samsung amoled screens have a tendency to burn in sadly. Happened to my girlfriends fascinate. Wasn't able to get it fixed. Best bet would be to take it into sprint for a screen swap or replacement.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] j0hnnyth3f0x:
This might be kind of a dumb question, but is this happening only when the screen is left on?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] RainMotorsports:
LOL, Yes. Screen is made of organic leds. Each pixel burns over time. Area's used more and on a solid color will show more. Such as the time at the top of the screen.

Its the nature of the tech. LCD's have a backlight that shines through colored layers that can be blocked out by liquid crystal to darken colors. The backlight gets dimmer overtime and even burns out. OLED not to be confused with LED Backlit LCD's has no backlight. Each pixel is its own light source and similar to the phospors in CRT's burn in. Blues are the worst in any OLED technology but they have made some improvements.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dgn_sandibalz:
Happened to me on my evo. It was pandora. I run it about 8 hours a day at the office. The skip and thumbs buttons burned in. Ended up getting replaced.

I would leave it on cuz i was lazy and didnt want to bother unlocking phone. Would be great if i could get lock screen controls for pandora like other music players. AOSP lock screen handles them great. Just no pandora.

I have heard of people getting free replacements if you are still within your 1 year warranty.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] benthe1:
I guess it depends on if it's still under warranty. If not and you don't have insurance, then it's on you. (That's kind of the purpose of insurance right?)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] RainMotorsports:
Really? So I guess everyone who ever bought a CRT should have had theirs replace regularly because their kids game console was leaving a burn in behind?

While insurance, maybe even warranty replacement seems to cover it. It is not a defect in manufacturing or design meaning warranty does not actually cover it. It was a known nature of the technology before Samsung even came in and improved it. Just like Plasma, people go out and make the decision to buy something for its spectacular qualities even though it has fatal flaws in its lifespan.

I guess companies should just stop making OLED products then? They won't because they have yet to even touch the future applications of the technology. My laptop has an oled display under the monitor which is blue, the worst kind of oled and that thing is burnt to hell.

Oh and when OLED TV's finally go mainstream you might want to avoid buying one because unlike our phone, its not getting fixed. They will tell you to deal with it.

[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Atomix96:
I was wonder a handful of things.

1) To use Rom Manager on an Xperia PLAY does the bootloader have to be unlocked?

2) Has anyone ever had any problems with the unlock method provided by Alejandrissimo?

3) Does a device have to be rooted to use the paid unlock method mentioned above?

4) Since CWM has to be installed in "system" on a locked Xperia PLAY, can it be installed normally from Rom Manager if the bootloader is unlocked?

I will post occasional new questions as I come to them. I created this for all those with Xperia PLAY questions. I can root anything else and do roms but jeez this phone gets me :confused:
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sashake:
Uhm to give you a Quick help

1) No, you only need to be rooted

2) Never used it - for root I simply use flashtool, connect the device with USB debugging on, Click on Root - it gets done within 2 Minutes.

3) I would figure no - If he can unlock the bootloader he will also root the device if necessary.

-> For unlocking bootloader you can also use the SONY service for free.

4) I never put CWM anywhere, I simply download it from the Play Store and it works :P -> You got to have root tho!
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] netizenmt:
This user obviously does not have an R800x because most of these answers are wrong for that phone.

1. ROM manager does not work on the R800x nor do you need it. The proper tools for working with ROMs on this phone are Flashtool and Fastboot.

2. Allejandrissimo's method works well and he can fix just about any problem that you could possibly have.

3. The free methods do not work with the R800x. I think you are supposed to have it rooted first but if you are having a problem with that, Allejandrissimo can help you with that as well.

4. Once you have an unlocked bootloader, Recovery (CWM) is built into most kernels, so you will not need to install it separately.
