[Asus Transformer TF700] Septurious:
My device was rooted, the OTA update showed up, I tried to update and got the dead Android device error, after that it wouldn't detect the update anymore so I tried the alternative of downloading it and running it off of my MicroSD card, unfortunately I only have a 64GB version (formatted FAT32) and though it would detect the update file it would fail during the install.

Just tried a 16GB MicroSD and it worked perfectly right out of the gate.

Figured it might be useful information for anyone else out there trying to do the manual update and having it fail when using a 64GB MicroSD card. :)

So i'm trying the manual install method on my rooted/unlocked TF700 and get to a screen that has a wipe icon, a usb icon, and an android icon which just cold boots or i get booted into TWRP depending on how i toggle through the power/volume startup. I can't for the life of me figure out what i'm doing wrong here! Any tips?

Can you just flash the .30 zip in TWRP ?

rooted/un-locked at the moment
[Asus Transformer TF700] Grant H:
I'm still having a problem mounting my SanDisk class 10 64gb card after the update. I really sucks for me!
[Asus Transformer TF700] Schrotty35:
I have the WW Version. Can i flash the US Version too and is german aviable in the US Version?
[Asus Transformer TF700] Quozl:
I believe you have to use the version specifically for your SKU which as you mention is WW. Just wait for the WW update it wont be long.

.30 is removes from the Asus Site? I see only the .26 now.
[Asus Transformer TF700] criodor:
Yep, noticed that myself as well. No more .30 updates available. They all have been pulled from the support site :S
[Asus Transformer TF700] zachspda:
Just got the .30 update OTA. I have not checked my 64GB Sandisk card but it was working fine before. A matter of fact I have 3 different 64GB Sandisk cards and they all work in my 700.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Curious!:
Yeah, suddenly, it has been removed from the website today.

I was not able to do the OTA. Maybe because i deleted some .apk files from system because i tried to unroot and restore original build.prop

If someone has full blob, please post it somewhere so that I can download it.

It seems like I deleted CMClient.apk and CMClient.odex can someone upload these files from .26 for me?

Edit:

For the people like me who deleted or modified DMClient or CMClient.apk - odex or build.prop

I attached these files for .26 firmware so that you can do a proper update to .30.
[Asus Transformer TF700] rlarson)mn:
Interesting that the 30 update was pulled. Its possible that the OTA download works for units but the download file(s) do not. Another reason would be the Jelly Bean release is coming sooner than later! Guess time will tell what the pulled reason is.
[Asus Transformer TF700] njgsx96:
The firmware is pulled but you can download the source code for the kernel still. If you go to the source code option, .30 is there. Was this just a kernel update? Was it actually never a firmware update?
[Asus Transformer TF700] Quozl:
So have they just removed the SKU codes from the update then and can WW users now apply it? There is nothing now on the site or in the zip itself saying it is only for a particular SKU region just a single update kernal to .30 file in the kernals section.

Not enough communication from ASUS sadly :(

can anybody advise how to do manual update as this option seems to be failing me?
[Asus Transformer TF700] tinok:
Ich installiere grade das US Update auf meinem WW TF700 !!!

Das bedeutet wenn endlich JB für US rauskommt dann können wir das auch manuell installieren ohne ROOT!

so fertig installiert alles Sauber !!!! Tja habe jetzt zwar eine US-Version also werde ich auch nur noch US Ota Updates kriegen, aber es lief alles ohne ROOT oder WIPE ab Hammer!

habe einfach nur die XDA anleitung benutzt plus die ota update datei die ein User auf Dropbox geladen hatte

1. Decompress downloaded .zip file (it will be another .zip)

2. Rename it to EP201_768_SDUPDATE.zip

3. Format FAT32 the MicroSD card that you will be using for the update process

4. Copy the file to (the root directory of) your MicroSD

5. Insert it into the tablet

6. Shutdown (power off) the tablet

7. Power it on by pressing and holding VOLUME DOWN and POWER buttons simultaneously

8. When you see white text in the top left corner of the screen, release the buttons ^^ and press VOLUME UP button until you see Android logo and process bar

9. Wait patiently for 10 minutes or so

10. Enjoy!

hoffe für alle Update willigen die es nicht erwarten konnten wie ich geholfen zu haben

Firmware update failure

I got a notification today that new firmware is available. I went on to install it. However, it failed and after restarting the device, I cannot see it anymore in the OTA settings.

Could this be because I removed CMClient.apk ?
[Asus Transformer TF700] fcan:
I got the WW update just five minutes ago :)
[Asus Transformer TF700] d14b0ll0s:
Same story for me - WW firmware, got notice, tried to update, then it failed (possibly because of /system modifications), now it doesn't show up, which makes me wonder how the OTA updates are managed, as they are supposed to come in batches based on IMEI.
[Asus Transformer TF700] HeartWare42:
I just got it as well, but before I install it, I'd like to save the file(s) necessary for others to do offline update. I have found the /cache/dlpkgfile and saved it, but was wondering if there are other files that need to be saved before I apply the update.

Anyone?
[Asus Transformer TF700] d14b0ll0s:
Yes, that should be it. If you could upload it, that would be very helpful. I've tried looking there after it failed, as I forgot it reboots without asking (I haven't done it for a while), so too late..

Here's why mine failed:

Verifying current system...

failed to stat "/system/app/CMClient.apk": No such file or directory

file "/system/app/CMClient.apk" doesn't have any of expected sha1 sums; checking cache

failed to stat "/cache/saved.file": No such file or directory

failed to load cache file

script aborted: assert failed: apply_patch_check("/system/app/CMClient.apk",

BTW, as the scripts tries to run this command:

Command: "recovery" "--update_package=/cache/dlpkgfile"

I wonder if it could work without dd or booting into recovery, let's find out when we have the blob.
[Asus Transformer TF700] HeartWare42:
I saw someone else has uploaded his copy, so I began updating my TF700. If needed, I have the backup stored on my SD card.

[Asus Transformer TF700] cheltenham2004:
ww is out installing .30
[Asus Transformer TF700] d14b0ll0s:
Seems there should be a command file in /cache/recovery/ with it.

(doesn't work as a flashable .zip for me; I still need to recover some deleted .apks from /system/app)

Edit: It seems command file is a text file which should just read:

--update_package=/cache/dlpkgfile
[Asus Transformer TF700] Kalipok:
Oops ! The OTA update failed ! I guess I should have unfrost those systems apps after all... And maybe recovered the original build.prop file too :p

Anyway ! How do we find out why the update failed ? Is there any hidden log file somewhere ?
[Asus Transformer TF700] d14b0ll0s:
Yes, there is one in /cache/recovery/

In my case it was both missing apks in /system/app/ and non-stock build.prop. Just recover these and copy dlpkgfile and recovery/command to /cache/, then boot into recovery (it deletes these files every time, so in case it fails remember to copy it again before restart, it will save you some time).

BTW, RL Benchmark gives me 87-98 instead of ~60 sec, this is disappointing so far (cfq scheduler).
[Asus Transformer TF700] Vippo321:
Mine also crashed during update. I have deleted some preinstalled apps from asus and I have rooted device. But the worst thing is I don´t know how to recover those missing apps, omg.

Sorry I didn´t saw the post above, so I take a try. thx
[Asus Transformer TF700] Kalipok:
Thank you ! :good:

[Asus Transformer TF700] misiek_to_ja:
Hi guys,

If you are rooted and you disabled Asus Device Tracker and/or put some tweaks to build.prop in order to perform .30 OTA you need to do the steps mentioned in this post: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=31813130&postcount=25. It worked flawlessly for me.

This update bricked my tablet

I had a similar issue as everyone else downloading the WW update, it got stuck at 98% and would never install... then I tried rebooting and it kept saying that an update was being downloaded, and to check for notifications, but nothing was there...

I then googled the problem and I found out that wiping data on DMCLIENT would allow me to start the download over! I did, the new firmware downloaded and installed!

Upon booting up after the installation all google apps started FCing, all related to Google Account Manager failing to start... I then tried wiping all caches / data from all the google apps I could find, but the issue remained there!

That's when I decided to take the ultimate step and restore to factory default and wipe the memory, thinking that surely this would fix it... BUT THE ISSUE IS STILL THERE! now the tablet tries to go through the default android wizard (when you first turn it on), but when it gets to the bit where it connects your gmail account, Google Account Manager crashes and goes back one step, effectively being stuck forever in a loop!

:crying: :crying: :crying: I'm at a loss here, I have tried everything my tiny little mind could think of, I googled all I could, searched on XDA and still nothing!

I also lost faith in Asus, I live in the UK and it's not even been released here... I have a tablet only and I'm desperately trying to buy the dock with the right layout, which apparently doesn't even exist...

I should mention that the tablet was rooted before upgrading, but not unlocked (clearly, otherwise goodbye OTA)

Can anyone think of a solution? I'd be eternally grateful!
[Asus Transformer TF700] urrlyx:
Have you tried not restoring your device settings from your google account? I've had that cause issues before. (still put in your account info, just don't let it restore settings)
[Asus Transformer TF700] Alexander Phoenix:
Thx for the suggestion! Unfortunately it wouldn't have worked, because it'd crash waaaay before that point, it wouldn't give me an option to skip anything!

But I've fixed it now, I went into recovery mode, I noticed that every time I went in there it'd look for a file called "EP201_768_SDUPDATE" and failing to find it, it'd bring up the menu!

I thought to download the WW firmware from the Asus website, unzip it, and rename it as mentioned above, stick it on a microSD and see what happened... and what happened was the tablet forced the same update again! And this fixed the issue!

I post it just in case someone else is having this problem! Hopefully this will fix it for them as well!

Also how do I get back to stock .26?
[Asus Transformer TF700] urrlyx:
First, you should consider reading through the nvflash thread in the dev forum. You will be unable to use nvflash after updating past .26.

Download the full .30 firmware from Asus' site. Unzip it. (There will be another zip inside) Copy the new zip file (something like US_epad-user-9.4.5.30.zip) to your tablet. Boot into your favorite custom recovery and flash the zip. Wipe cache and dalvik cache and reboot.

Darksurf, ignore what was said.

you only need .26 bootloader to get initial nvflash access then you can flash any bootloader you want. I was previously on .30 and now on the JB bootloader and still have nvflash access. It is very clear from the first post that after you have nvflash you are good.

Quicknik is right. I was on .26, nvflashed it, updated to .30 then couldn't flash JB for some reason, couldn't use recovery for some reason. I just used nvflash to get the right bootloader again.

You will be unable to GAIN nvflash access if you haven't done so before upgrading past .26. Sorry if my statement wasn't clear.

you have to restore root after applying an official update. you always lose root with those. rootkeeper's purpose is to save the binaries in a safe place and restore them after the update is applied.

Right now I've got .30 update. I don't think I rooted correctly after the .30 update because since then I've been missing the option to check for updates in settings. I removed ALL bloatware after the .30 update including the DMClient and CMClient - and tried to restore things by re-downloading the .30 update and throwing it on the root of the SD. I've even re-named the file as suggested in other areas of the forum. I'm getting the red triangle. I'm a bit stuck, not sure what to do - but it seems like I might not be able to get the update to work without fixing the current installation of Android first. Any help is appreciated.

I tried installing the JB zip file but it failed twice. Was reading somewhere that the JBUPDATE.Zip file needed to verify that the rom that was currently running (for me was stock .30) was totally un-modified. I couldn't figure out why the install kept failing. Then as I rebooted with a previous backup of stock .30 I noticed I did modify the bootanimation file and txt file pointing to it. Looked in a cache log file and saw where it failed due to the bootanimation file not returning the proper values. I saved the original files as .old files. Was thinking of reverting those and trying the install again, but with so many people seeming to have problems, I think I'll wait till one of the Dev's cranks a rom out based on the new JB rom before I jump back in.......

Hey,

Just wanted to thank everyone for the help and the instructions. Since ASUS isn't much help, it's nice to know that I can get help elsewhere.

I was in the "no updates" group of people, who was originally notified of the OTA JB update and after it failed, was unable to get it again. I tried everything 100 times and it just kept saying there were no updates.

Anyway, I just finished manually installing the 10.4.4.16 upgrade and it "seems" to have worked. (time will tell i suppose)

***** TLDR WHAT DID I DO *****

The microsd method worked for me. I downloaded the firmware update from the ASUS website extracted it and copy it to a SanDisk 8 GB MicroSD, formatted for FAT 32. I inserted it into the tablet and made sure it was showing up in File Manager. Then I did a cold boot with recovery. It detected the update and installed in less than 10 minutes.

My infinity is stock. No root or custom ROM. Just a regular MicroSD with the WW firmware.

Before you update anything read throught the NVflash thread, especially if you are going to unlock and install roms. Once you update past. 26,you can't get nvflash access anymore.
