Sigh... I lost root from this... and OTA root keeper does not seem to be working. :eek:
[Asus Transformer TF700] SteveG12543:
OTA RootKeeper worked just fine for me :confused:
[Asus Transformer TF700] Dahenjo:
Try opening your Superuser or SuperSU first, whichever you use. OTA Rootkeeper couldn't restore full root for me until I did that, then it worked correctly.
[Asus Transformer TF700] lucius.zen:
why the OTA worked 1st time for me....

This is probably why most rooted devices are not receiving OTA, i can verify that I have a US sku, am rooted, locked (unlocking the bootloader prevents OTA), and cmclient and dmclient are NOT frozen (apparently only DMclient needs to be working but i can't verify this). The OTA install worked perfectly for me....manual install from external sd should also work for those of you who are rooted AND unlocked (i used this same process to manually install the last update)....unzip update to external sd, turn off tablet, restart in recovery mode (hold power and volume down until white txt appears in upper left corner), once you are in recovery let go of volume down and press volume up until you see the lovely little android update character thing. The OTA update should then take care of itself.

All the best.

Edit: I can only verify that the manual install works with stock ROM, I have no idea what will happen if you have flashed a custom ROM
[Asus Transformer TF700] Mike02z:
No luck here. Neither CMclient or DMclient are frozen. It appears to start the update but then I get dead Andy and when I hit the power button I get:

Ok, I figured out why I got the above but it is still failing and when I reboot it tells me update failed.
[Asus Transformer TF700] polish_pat:
Ok, let's put it this way. Anybody with a WW TF700 get the OTA?
[Asus Transformer TF700] glenner05:
Nothing here yet in Belgium. I have ww tf700. By any chance any improvement with the lag problems?
[Asus Transformer TF700] BoyScout:
i didn't receive the OTA update here in Germany...

TF700T / stock rom / no unlock but rooted

[Asus Transformer TF700] bckldwn:
I was excited to try this but when I did.. it didn't work unfortunately; still can't unlock or get the update (on WW .26)
[Asus Transformer TF700] 2tabletfamily:
I am in Canada - I just got it -- went into settings, about tablet, and checked for updates

(not rooted or unlocked......I don't know how to do any of that stuff ! )
[Asus Transformer TF700] polish_pat:
go into settings-about tablet and whats the build number? IML74K.XX??? XX = US or WW?
[Asus Transformer TF700] timrock:
Still having bluetooth sync issues.

Anyone notice a change in volume?
[Asus Transformer TF700] pierrekid:
Just received the update. Nice...but i WANT SOME JB LOVE!

Sent from my ASUS Transformer Pad TF700T
[Asus Transformer TF700] timrock:
soon, its scheduled to be released this month.

I;m just happy they got some of those bugs fixed.
[Asus Transformer TF700] bckldwn:
Really.. where did you hear that from?
[Asus Transformer TF700] Pyperkub:
Is there a description of the OTA anywhere? It appeared to do a firmware update, an android updates and a camera update... but android is still 4.0.3 (all stock).
[Asus Transformer TF700] polish_pat:
Ya, where did you hear that from! I think you might of dreamed about it because i've never seen any schedule more precise than "coming on the next months"
[Asus Transformer TF700] timrock:
From their facebook page.

[Asus Transformer TF700] neo1738:
Interestingly enough I did not get the first OTA and couldn't manually pull it. When I saw this thread I tried to pull and said device is up dto date. So I figured here we go again, then all of the sudden the update popped up ready to instal. Must have already been downloading and that's why device was up to date. Point is some of us who couldn't get OTA for .26 now got it for .30.

I am rooted, OTA worked fine no issues. I did not change build.prop, or cmc/dmc freeze ever.

1) Read their about it is not an official Asus site. It is run by one of the gizmodo guys

2) I didn't see anything that said def Sept.
[Asus Transformer TF700] bckldwn:
I don't see anything there :P, isn't this page unofficial?
[Asus Transformer TF700] timrock:
It was posted a while back by ASUS. It was posted at the end of august, right after their other Transformer received JB. I posted the quote a while back. It will be hard to find now. I will try to look for it.
[Asus Transformer TF700] polish_pat:
There is no word on the 4.1 update for tf700t. if you saw one, it was probable one of the many misleading articles posted a few weeks back. Asus did not say anything about that except "in the next months"
[Asus Transformer TF700] timrock:
The Stock Google apps seem to be working better. Gmail, Maps and Currents havent given me any issues as of yet.
[Asus Transformer TF700] 2tabletfamily:
74K.US

bought it in July Tiger Direct.ca but shipped from US
[Asus Transformer TF700] clownberg:
micro-sd issues seem to be resolved

I would transfer pdf files over wifi using wifi file explorer pro-When i transferred pdf files to the external micro-sd card the tablet would

always crash and reboot.That has been fixed with this latest update.
[Asus Transformer TF700] zenaxe:
Thanks for the tips guys. I actually just went straight to debugfs and rerooted from scratch. I need to get my OTA keeper stuff straight though for JB. According to the 300 guys JB does support the debugfs root, IIRC. I have SuperSU installed, uninstalled regular super user and Voodoo OTA says it has a protected backup. Hopefully it'll all work come jb time.
[Asus Transformer TF700] aleitch:
I got it too but not JB

I just got the OTA here but was sad to see it wasnt JB. Build .30. Anyone yet discover where we can find a list of changes?
[Asus Transformer TF700] Mike02z:
I have tried everything to get this update to install. When I first started my TF700 is siad there was a firmware update. I was still rooted and the update failed.

I then dumped the dlpkgfile to the cache directory on the root of my internal SD Card. then then placed the command file in the cache/recovery folder. I checked all permissions then removed root and rebooted into recovery. The file starts to update then I get dead andy. When I restart it says "Update Failed". I have firmware build IML74.US-epad-9.4.5.26-201220720. I am still locked.

Any ideas? I don't recall modifying my build prop and I unfroze several applications including CMclient and DMclient. Anyone have the stock build.prop so I can try replacing that?
[Asus Transformer TF700] SteveG12543:
The "Android is updating app x out of x" thing is just the system rebuilding the dalvik cache, as I believe it wipes the dc while the update is being processed in recovery. That's the only time I've seen it come up on any of my devices at least.
[Asus Transformer TF700] hnt20:
i am running stock ROM without any changes, however, i am rooted and have an unlocked bootloader with TWRP recovery... yet i did not get the OTA update. I have tried to check for OTA update in the check for firmware update, nothing coming up..

Am I missing anything...
[Asus Transformer TF700] Mike02z:
If your unlocked you will never get an OTA update.
[Asus Transformer TF700] timrock:
When i first got my dock, i tried to plug in my Flip Ultra HD Cam, and had no success. Now i can plug it and view the contents and transfer files ( i also recently got a keyboard dock update as well). The Infinity didnt start off so great, but things are starting to look up.
[Asus Transformer TF700] sparksd:
I'm still getting lots of Gmail crashes/lockups.

Dave
[Asus Transformer TF700] aleitch:
Just looking around to see what has changed. Face unlock is there and works great. The GPS starts up and fixes unbelievably faster than it did prior to the update. Also the speaker sounds louder now.
[Asus Transformer TF700] hnt20:
any ideas how to relock the bootloader?
[Asus Transformer TF700] Digital Man:
Just played back a couple of MKV files - looks like the Bluetooth lag has been addressed - I'm amazed - got to do more testing but first few videos played locally off SD card seem to be playing with pretty good audio sync...thats a big one in my book...didn't expect them to get around to fixing that before JB - if at all...
[Asus Transformer TF700] timrock:
i watched a movie with my bluetooth headphones using BS Player and the lag was still there. It was a 1080p MKV

---------- Post added at 05:21 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:19 PM ----------

Memory card issues seem to have been fixed as well.
[Asus Transformer TF700] woodsonmh:
After working on this, most of the day after failing with ota update here is what I did. I am rooted.

Downloaded file previous post in thread.

Removed bin extension from dlpkgfile

Restored two client files

Rebooted

Copy dlpkgfile to (root) /cache

In terminal mode:

su

echo --update_package=/cache/dlpkgfile > /cache/recovery/command

exit

Used voodoo to unroot

Shut tf down

Press Vol down and on button until text appears in upper left corner

Press Vol up button

Android animation and file installed

Booted up and finished update

Restored root

I don't know if everything is needed but this what i did. Hope this helps someone else.

Woody

PS i ran quadrant and got a score over 4400 don't think thats ever happened before.

PS 2 I didn't credit everyone that I got help from. My contribution was mainly persistents.

Thanks to all.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Digital Man:
The clip I used was 720p, 3250 Kbps, AC3 audio - I'm happy to be able to play that without too much lag - I don't have high hopes for lag free 1080p + BT audio from the tegra 3, though it would be nice if they can achieve it.

I'm not convinced the BT audio problem is fixed - just a preliminary observation.

Edit: I used MX Player Pro - I have found BS player to have the worst BT lag of any player regardless - that might be a factor - Dice also performs well with little lag.

Edit: OK checked BS player - you're right still lags even on 720p - but MX and Dice play reasonably well - looks like a significant fix if 2 out of 3 players are working now..
[Asus Transformer TF700] xcal321:
Nothing yet. I wouldn't expect it any other way. I had to do a manual update to from .22 to .26. I was still stock then, I have since rooted (still locked).
[Asus Transformer TF700] PolishPoet:
Same here, no problems keeping root.

---------- Post added at 04:41 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:39 PM ----------

Can't
[Asus Transformer TF700] the_game_master:
this is the first automatic update I received from ASUS since I got this tablet at the end of July.

This gives me hope that 4.1 update is on it's way, like that comment from ASUS hinted at from their facebook page.
[Asus Transformer TF700] macaumen:
I received the OTA update this morning. However, I didn't realize that modified build.prop will lead to an update failure. Now, I restored my build.prop but I can never get that OTA update back. Keep checking for update and there's nothing.
[Asus Transformer TF700] mencho:
Still no fix on the wifi battery drain issue

Just 3 minutes use after firmware update but wifi is already 41% of battery drakn...

So I doubt they addressed that issue
[Asus Transformer TF700] Mike02z:
Thank you! I'm not sure what I was doing wrong, but your method worked for me. I think it was that I was trying to copy the command file over rather than creating it with terminal emulator. Thanks again!:good:
[Asus Transformer TF700] woodsonmh:
Did bother to read the thread? If you do you might just find what your looking for.
[Asus Transformer TF700] macaumen:
Yeah, I updated with the dlpkgfile. I am just wondering that if I will never get any OTA update afterward. My infinity is still locked btw.
[Asus Transformer TF700] woodsonmh:
I think there is video improvement. Programs that i suspect are having problems with resolution on tf seem to be working much better. I like flipboard, and yes i know its not compatible, but I've sideloaded and it worked okay untill last update and i had shutdowns and app resets. Today after update flipboard seems to be working fine. Netflix with 2d hardware ex. And hdmi output was unusable. Works okay now.
[Asus Transformer TF700] dude2k5:
screenshot from last night before the update and after. It came around 5am PST in Cali.

and had root, used voodoo rootkeeper, seemed to have kept it.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Egregious Philbin:
My update has been stuck at 99% for the last 5 minutes....

ETA, rebooted, had a bit of a problem connecting, got it working, installing now...
[Asus Transformer TF700] hnt20:
Does this work on unlocked bootloader with TWRP recovery?
[Asus Transformer TF700] :
Thanks for that, you didn't highlight it but GPS was also updated from V6.9.18 to V6.9.19. It was already much better than on my Prime (even w/dongle), but now I get a lock in under 10 seconds indoors.
[Asus Transformer TF700] SayWhat10:
Can somebody simply confirm.... If you update to. .30 that you can still root it using the normal method? Just got a new one today (returned) wondering do i root now at .22, or can just update and then root
[Asus Transformer TF700] dchawk81:
Did you put the update file in the main root, or did you put it in the sdcard root?
[Asus Transformer TF700] 1stx2:
Does anyone have or know where i could find the stock build.prop? I read earlier something about finding it the "blob" but i have no clue to where that could be. Any information you could give me would be greatly appreciated. :)
[Asus Transformer TF700] woodsonmh:
I put it in the cache dir. Not on sdcard. I don't know if its proper to say sdcard root. I think root always refers to / . Everything is below root.

---------- Post added at 06:55 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:54 PM ----------

Don't know. I only have root.
[Asus Transformer TF700] pipopipz:
Installed today's update and it crashed the first time after it was installed. I did see the updating camera part of it earlier. From the Philippines here.
[Asus Transformer TF700] rambling1:
Is your device the international WW version? Did you buy it in the Philippines?

I'm in Thailand, purchased it locally (WW version) and no update yet here.
[Asus Transformer TF700] rmkbow:
does this patch fix the nvidia bug at all?
[Asus Transformer TF700] rmkbow:
That's unfortunate. I guess this update isn't very important to me (i have a WW tf700). The nvidia issue is my only gripe right now.
[Asus Transformer TF700] PolishPoet:
Hmmmm, tried all kinds of zoom-in/zoom-out. I've had problems with Boat browser crashing previously and seems to be Ok now.
[Asus Transformer TF700] jjdevega:
I never had those issue that you're having. Even now I can zoom in and out without any problems.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Svashtar:
Hi,

I NEED HELP :eek:

In preparation to this update i have temporarily disabled root (root keeper) and replaced my build.prop with one found in this thread (downloaded via dropbox). I have backed up my apex settings due to different DPI settings etc...

Rebooted.

It just hangs at Asus logo, or in case of cold boot at Signature match and those two icons.

I am not sure what could cause this, except maybe the build.prop which i didn't check the contents off. Maybe i have a typo in a name of the build.prop.

Damn. What are my options?

Thx

---------- Post added at 12:26 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:05 PM ----------

Mother F jesus of the tablet!

I went and did a wipe-data thingie in cold boot.

It went through. But in the middle of it I remembered it doesn't actually overwrite the system files.

Mother of god!

Still at Asus logo.

Did i f* up my tablet?

---------- Post added at 12:28 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:26 PM ----------

Can't even turn it off. Dufuq?

Edit: found out the problem. it is US build.prop. I needed WW one. Aaarghh, stupid me to not check it out.

Wooohooo. I am currently the happiest man around :)

Manually flashed the 26 update and the tablet is alive! It's ALIVE!!! :)

I have lost all my data, movies etc...but it is a small price compared to having a 700€ brick on a shelve. I can get bricks for free in the backyard.

Thank you ME almighty
[Asus Transformer TF700] rambling1:
Why would a US build.prop not work? What's the difference? In preparation for the update I've replaced today my custom build.prop (DPI settings changed) with one I found here from one of the guys who used it to get through the update, with a US device, and my tablet (WW) is booting up fine.

Anyway glad to hear you got it working fine.
[Asus Transformer TF700] quizesilver:
Juz updated mine.

I am rooted but never unlocked. The ota root keeper work.
[Asus Transformer TF700] zenaxe:
+1. I'm amazed that such a serious stability problem has not been addressed when a known fix has been available for months. I've had apps crash more than once due to this issue while demoing it for people. And I literally do not have a single 3D game that does not crash on the device. <facepalm>
[Asus Transformer TF700] pipopipz:
I bought it in an online shop. I could make out a IML74K.US in the build number. Does that mean I'm using the US version?
