[Asus Transformer TF700] buhohitr:
1. If you are 100% stock - NO problem with OTA.

2.. If you are just rooted - you can download OTA root keeper from the market and perform a temp unroot your device to get ready(if you want to keep root after the update). OTA should work fine. After the update some people may have to REroot.

3. If you have unlocked bootloader with root or without root, you will NOT able to do OTA update. Once you unlocked your bootloader, OTA no longer works and NO you can't RElocked your bootloader to take OTA. You will have to manually perform the update. There will be plenty of instruction how to do once JB is out.

Hope it's clear for everyone.

4. If you have custom rom, definitely NO OTA update and you don't want OTA update anyway. Just wait for a new official JB custom rom or update manually.

I would err on the side of caution and enable all. Then do a cold boot. Only then, do you do the update. After the update, disable the apps. Then cold boot again. :good:

So if I'm running the Zues custom rom now, once the official jellybean hits I can download manually from ASUS website and flash in TWRP?
[Asus Transformer TF700] urrlyx:
Yes you can flash official firmwares with TWRP, though it has been stated there may be some issues with TWRP until they get it recompiled using the new kernel source.

yeah flashing the update with twrp is ok (i think) but then just stick with stock recovery until twrp is updated. No idea if cwm is the same way... guess we should read up in the tf300 forum.

Uninstall ezoverclock. Don't think it works on the infinity anyway, but i had it installed since i used it on the prime. The 300 forum indicated that it will cause bootloops.

I haven't rooted yet and wondering if I should just hold out... I'm sure only a couple of days will elapse before someone will create or modify a root method (if needed) to work with the JB update. Any thoughts?
[Asus Transformer TF700] shadow071506:
do I have to do a factory reset or cold boot like what others are saying? and if ever i back up my apps with titanium backup, does restoring also restores the data of the application? for example in the game, the bards tale, it has an sd data of 3.5gb, after restoring with titanium backup, does it also restore the big chunk of sd data? thanks a lot... got a lot of games with huge sd data dats why im wondering if its necessary to do a factory reset and all.. thanks btw, to everyone who answered :)
[Asus Transformer TF700] johnlgalt:
No, you don't have to factory reset.

IMO it would be better not to factory reset and see how JB takes to your tablet. JB is more of a minor update over ICS than ICS was over GB, So most apps that work in ICS should work in JB just fine. Others here will say that for the best experience you should wipe, and while this is technically true, those of us running lots of apps (200+) that can be problematic.

[Asus Transformer TF700] KilerG:
I agree, Asus really tries to make it so you don't have to wipe data. It sucks to start from scratch.
[Asus Transformer TF700] okantomi:
However, I have found that by backing up all user apps and data to the external sdcard with Titanium backup, you can just batch restore "missing apps and data" once you have booted into your shiny new OS, (after you have reinstalled TiBU root and pro key from the Play Store, of course) and you will have everything you had before. I use Go Launcher and it even completely restores my desktop...I just have to set my wallpaper of choice. It's pretty painless.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Pretoriano80:
That's how i restore usually, or if you have a nandroid backup you can restore just the "Data" partition with the custom recovery.

[Asus Transformer TF700] GenghisKhan67:
If I want to test the stock version and install it from Asus' support web site when JB becomes available, will the WW version be alright if I purchased my tablet in Canada? I used to install the US version on my used TF101 that I bought on eBay from a US user and that worked fine, but I never tried the WW version. Just want to avoid bricking the tablet with an incorrect file (the TF700 seems more sensitive than previous versions in that regard). Thanks in advance for any insights.
[Asus Transformer TF700] zenaxe:
I personally wouldn't count on it. The current root method is pretty trivial and based on the TF300 and TF201 reports will survive the update. You've got a couple of days to mess with it until JB drops. I personally would absolutely NOT wait, if root is important to you at all (it is to me) since you have no idea how long a new method would take or how convoluted it may be, and many users/devs will already be rooted and have less incentive to figure an alternate method. Also, it has been more than a couple of days and the 300 is not rooted post JB AFAIK.
[Asus Transformer TF700] quicknik:
I don't agree with number 3. I was able to get OTA updates since .22. Unlocked, rooted and now nvflashed. I declined .30 OTA since I knew nvflash was in the works. This may be a case by case basis though.
[Asus Transformer TF700] jtrosky:
That's very interesting - I've not heard of *anyone* getting Android OTA updates after being unlocked. I mentioned "Android" OTAs, becuase you *can* still get dock and camera OTAs, but not the OS itself. If you really are getting OS OTAs, then Asus doesn't know you are unlocked (that's a good thing!)....
[Asus Transformer TF700] Blairware:
This one will get you....

I searched the thread (instead of reading it, after all it IS only 2 pages! )Problem was I am in a hurry, need to leave for work. If I save just ONE hapless soul with this it was worth it! :victory:

Big "Gotcha" is Ez-overclock. Remove it before update - It will cause a boot loop, and while it IS possible to catch it and stop the loop, it is not easy to get in there in the few seconds you get. Much easier to pull it beforehand, especially since it is not going to work on the new stock rom (until we get an unsecured kernel) Don't get caught in this classic trap. :cyclops:

Edit: UGH - Just went back and read the full thread - Someone already posted about ez overclock. Sorry for the redundancy. I suppose that preferable to NOBODY mentioning it.

Question: Since I haven't unlocked Infinity (My Prime was unlocked) I see people talking about applying stock ROMs/Blobs - but with Prime you would brick the device by doing this. Have developers found a way around this?
[Asus Transformer TF700] Pyperkub:
Question - I'm currently rooted and have rootkeeper prepped, however I haven't unlocked the bootloader - will I still be able to do that after the update, should I so choose?

Thanks!
[Asus Transformer TF700] ultramegaman963:
alot of people say if your rooted and unlocked you wont get OTA. but i have a rooted and unlocked rezound and i received the ICS OTA perfectly..or is it different with tablets?
[Asus Transformer TF700] KilerG:
It's different coming from Asus for some reason.
[Asus Transformer TF700] acraigl:
I've installed and applied VooDoo OTA. Is there any reason I need SuperSU over Superuser? Or are these interchangeable?
[Asus Transformer TF700] FrontRowJoe:
There have been reports of folks losing root even with VooDoo when using Superuser. SuperSU supposedly updates the root binary to prevent that, and it's free. Might as well play it safe. Note: you will need to delete and recreate your root backup with VooDoo after installing SuperSU.
[Asus Transformer TF700] hkusp40cal:
DO: uninstall LBE Privacy if you are using it, or at least turn off active protection. If you don't you will get stuck in a boot loop as the active protection will reboot your device on 4.1.
[Asus Transformer TF700] xfinrodx:
Do grab nvflash access if you are still eligible (on bl < 30) and plan to mess with your tablet in the future. If you don't plan to deviate much from stock, just take the update and post on jellybean lovers' threads. :) Majority of people I've met would never root, let alone unlock and use unofficial system software. Nvflash is a great safety net for people who flash and especially for those who develop. Also, if you hate jb, it's a virtual certainty that you can downgrade with nvflash.

This.

I have both installed as well and have the same question. My assumption is Superuser can be safely removed after SuperSU is installed, but I'd like to hear that from someone that knows more than I in this area. Thanks!
[Asus Transformer TF700] Quozl:
I asked the same question that was answered HERE

You can safely remove superuser and replace it with SuperSU in fact if you read that reply and associated link in it, it is recommended.

[Asus Transformer TF700] acraigl:
Thanks... curious as to why Voodoo status has a link to superuser, "Superuser app installed" with a google play button. This was not present while I had Superuser installed. Is is not aware of SuperSU? Should I have any concerns with this?
[Asus Transformer TF700] Quozl:
No idea mine is the same.

All I did was install superSU app then uninstall Superuser app, then deleted the backup in Voodoo and closed it. Then restarted Voodoo and when SuperSU asked if I wanted to give Voodoo permission to access Super User access said yes then reran the backup of root. I did the same for any other apps that need superuser access and SuperSu popped up and asked if I wanted to grant them Super User permission as well.

I also use the Pro version of SuperSU and have Survival mode ticked in settings as it was suggested to have both it and Voodoo enabled in another thread before doing the JB update when it comes.

Hope this makes sense, its 3Am here and I'm a bit tired :)

Detail: confiming update process>reboot>update screen with green android - at 1/4progress of the blue line: reboot> back at home screen->message: update failed. please try again with Kies or visit Samsung service center:

Ok...

Now I tried to connect my phone to Kies but this also didn't work. I got a message to check the USB-debugging mode but if it is on or off doesn't matter. I get no connection to Kies.

Background info:

- I did root by this CW-Tool were I don't need a PC

- I run TW

- I have this "No moar Power mod"

Does anybody has an idea how I can solve this update/connection problems?

I am happy for any help.

Please note that I am not so familar with all this rooting stuff. i did it mostly to control the permission of some apps.

TIA

[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] kishankpadiyar:
Earlier today, i came across an innovative new app that every Android user like totally need, - Android Defrag. Created by Enlightened Software House, the app promised to "Increase your Android Mobile & Tablets Performance Speeds, Battery and Memory Today." There was a Pro version too, and it only cost a buck - what a deal! Here, check out this gem's full description:

Here are the screenshots from the Play Store. Holy crap, we could all be fragmented and need this app ASAP. Right?

Wrong..! Android uses flash memory, and flash memory does not benefit from defragmentation because fragmentation does not slow it down in the first place. In fact just the opposite - defragmentation only makes things worse by decreasing flash memory's lifetime. Don't take my word for it - Google it.

This app and any other defrag app you'll ever see for Android are going to be some sorts of scam in one way or another. In this case, Android Defrag asked for permissions to read browser history and bookmarks as well as network communication. Who knows what it was going to do with this information and where this farmed data would end up?

I don't, and neither will you because:

it looked suspicious

as suspected, defragmentation was indeed pointless on Android devices

even if it weren't pointless, it would not be possible for an app to do so anyway

Oh, and those 5-star ratings - oh so fake:

You picked the wrong promotional technique, Enlightened Software House. And in doing so, will hopefully serve as a warning to those looking for information on Android defragmentation apps in the future. And for that I thank you.

Just to be sure the problem was the main screen on youtube with the portuguese language, I changed android language to english and after launching to the youtube main screen the problem didn't appear and everything worked perfectly.
