In the weekly calendar you cannot go past 01-November! Even if you are past it and scroll to another week, it comes back to 01 November!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y7abOlvjeb0
Multiple people reported the same effect. A report has been send to HTC.
Update: it happens when selecting Monday as the first day of the week, with first day on a Sunday, it is no issue.
Left button only switches between 'agenda" and "month". Menu is to be used for "week", "day", "year" views.
Update: addition: "double weeks" found by : Basst85.
- 1 feb - 7 feb 2010
- 1 mrt - 7 mrt 2010
- 1 nov - 7 nov 2010
These weeks appear double in the week view.
26 jul - 1 aug 2010 same error as the 01-November, week view does not get past this week!
Confirmed, and in HTC Calender day view, I can only select Month in the bottom bar. It won't let me cycle through Year/Month/Week/Day. Only through the Menu on the bottom right can I directly select date view.
I have the same problem. I have a T8585 HD2, UK version, obviously running a stock ROM.
On the calendar tab go to "settings" and make sure you deactivate the option "Nag me. In weekview always scroll back to the first week of november 2010"

Thanks Pandor.
This has saved me coming back in attempt to sort this problem out.
Weird
I notice that if I click the "next week" (down) button on the top right, and change to a different application and then back, it is on week commencing 9 November, but then which ever icon I click it goes back to w/c 2/11 then to w/c 26 Oct.
Change start of the week (in options of the tab) to "Sunday" --> worked for me - no bug anymore
What an unusual bug.
Sunday as start of the week works, but is too bizarre of an idea to wok with, I'll just wait for an update. I live in agenda view anyway.

[INFO] Firmware update (FOTA) changelog

If you copy any of this page, please refer back to this post, thanks.
I'm writing at the top here to say a few people have been misquoting my thread. Headings are now colour coded for your pleasure, to make it more clearly marked.
The top section shows unofficial (and now official too) ACTUAL CHANGES that people have reported fixed, etc. and from my own extensive testing, in the various FOTA updates already released by Asus. (Screenshots of most these builds at the bottom of the first two posts)
In the bottom section (now located in Post #2) is a list of bugs that need/needed fixing in the ICS and honeycomb builds of android respectively.
*For users who have rooted and have CWMRecovery, these firmware updates will FAIL when you try to install. You will have to un-root your device or wait for a safe flashable file to become available. Rooting voids your warranty.*
N.B. This list is primarily based on the Wifi only models. Your tablet/dock may come with an outdated/updated version of the firmware. These changelogs are based on the revisions shown in the screenshots posted below. Now that the TF is available in more countries, the FOTA updates (as of 26th April 2011) are more country dependant. So, if you post with information to be added to the changelog, please specify as many details you feel are relevant, including if you are fully stock or running a rooted device, along with the country you are from and SKU.
(If you have ANY problem after an update, use the 10-12sec force power off trick to try a fix. If that doesn't help, back up everything you want to keep and do a full factory reset, settings>privacy>factory data reset.)
________________________________
General Info:
The FOTA (firmware over the air) updates will be 'pushed' (sent) to your device when a new version is made available by Asus, as long as your wifi is on at the time.
If your wifi wasn't on at the time, your device will be made aware of the update the next time you switch it on.
If you know there has been an update released, and your device has not detected it yet, you can force an update check, via Settings>About Tablet>System Update. You may need to repeat this a couple of times to get the file to start downloading.
Once your device knows of the update it will automatically download it in the background and then display a notification on the bottom bar near the clock. Click it to start the update.
If you have to manually update your firmware for some reason, the files are usually available from the Asus website THIS LINK or THIS LINK or via the Asus FTP server HERE. (If those links don't work for you then just go to your country specific Asus page and download from there). It takes a while (several weeks after an official FOTA update is pushed out) for Asus to upload the latest updates to their servers so be patient. Old 8.2.3.9 files are HERE (or you may need 8.4.4.5) if you need to downgrade to root.
-Select Download>Android. Download the correct version for your device. (see below for SKU version info)
-Then read the user guide file (PDF) attached to the bottom of this post. It tells you everything about manually updating.
The SKU versions on the asus firmware page, are as follows:
US = USA
CN = China
TW = Taiwan
WW = Worldwide (for any other device that doesn't have a specific country SKU, e.g. the UK)
DE = Germany
TB = Belgium, Turkey, Luxembourg
JP = Japan
**(any firmware updates after 9.2.1.17 for current DE and TB users requires the 'special' update file available from the Asus website. This will enable those devices to upgrade to the latest WW sku updates when they are pushed out.)**
...make sure you get the correct version for your device (Check your build number and SKU in Settings>About tablet).
Things to know before you update:
It usually takes up to 10minutes to update your device (may take as little as 4minutes or a lot longer if you have encrypted your files).
If your device is already rooted, WITHOUT recovery installed, the update will remove root. If rooted WITH recovery installed, the update will fail.
You must have at least 50% battery charge before clicking the update button. Having it plugged into the mains is optional, however it is recommended (by asus) if you are updating from a microsd card.
Settings/files should be kept as is, but this isnt guaranteed. I didn't need to do a backup, but I recommend people do anyway just to be safe.
Do NOT touch your device while it updates.
Your device should automatically restart itself once finished updating.
Updating the dock can be done at a later date if your tablet was not plugged into the dock when you received the update. When you plug in the dock you will get another update notification. Click it to continue.
The dock update can take anything from 30seconds - 2minutes. Be patient and don't touch it while it's updating. The caps lock led will flash while it updates. A small message appears onscreen once it's finished, and you can then use it normally.
*I highly recommend you power down your tablet after this process is complete, then power it back up again, to check to see that the update has applied correctly in the system settings. If you get anything strange happening to your device after an update, and no one else seems to have the same problem, do a factory reset.*
A few reasons your device may not be receiving/updating via the automatic FOTA releases: (Possible solutions)
You have a rooted device #1. Use NVflash to revert back to a total stock device, then re-flash an official rom from the Asus FTP server.
You have a rooted device #2. Unroot using the guide HERE. Then reflash the latest official firmware you can get your hands on from the Asus FTP server.
You have upgraded/downgraded from another firmware incorrectly. Refer the Rom chef's guide you flashed for info.
The file is corrupted. Go to Settings>Applications>Manage Applications>DMClient. Tap on Clear data and Clear Cache. Force power off the device (10-12sec power button hold), wait 30secs and turn device back on again.
It's a fairly large file and your internet connection may be very slow. Be patient.
Wifi is switched off. Turn on wifi!
Battery has less than 50% charge. Plug it in to charge!
It's not been released in your country yet. Be patient.
The file transfer was interrupted. Check wifi connection.
Your device serial number may not be recognised by the Asus update server. Contact Asus support.
A modem/router/firewall is blocking the transfer. Temporarily lower your firewall, or put your device IP into the DMZ option in the router settings.
It still doesn't download the update after doing the things above. Try a hard reset.
Argh ... Aliens!!! Repent all sins, run for the hills or build a fortress out of tinfoil to protect yourself.

Maintaining these lists has started feeling like a job so if anyone feels like buying me a coffee (via the donate button) or a new house (wouldn't say no to that one ) it's much appreciated (I've made it through too many sleepless nights with a cup o' Joe lately). Or if you don't like that idea then please consider donating to The Red Cross, as they certainly deserve it a lot more than I do.

Things needing to be fixed
If you notice any items on this list have been fixed in your firmware version, please post details (firmware version, your country, item fixed, number of days you have tested, etc). If a few people confirm an item is fixed I will remove it.
----
ICE CREAM SANDWICH (Current build):
Tablet:
Overall max volume level decreased.
Apps battery % data unavailable.
Occasionally device restarts itself when in sleep mode then gets stuck on asus bootscreen.
Occasionally device shuts down from sleep mode (was in HC builds also, possibly hardware related) and reboots.
Flickering diagonal graphics glitch. Possible overlay or screen refresh rate issue. Can be re-created by opening the Youtube app, then opening the notification area.
Incorrect cursor placement when editing text boxes in stock browser.
Frequent stock browser lockups and crashes when viewing web pages with lots of flash animations/videos.
Default email client doesn't automatically sync emails based on the time interval stated in the settings.
Incorrect clocks. Notification bar clock, lockscreen clock and extended notification clock occasionally show different times.
Stock browser text selection arrows occasionally stay onscreen after you have finished editing text.
Frequent MyLibrary app crashes on opening pdf files.
Stock browser closes itself seemingly randomly.
File manager closes itself seemingly randomly.
Dock:
TBD
----
HONEYCOMB (Obsolete build):
Tablet:
Text selection indicators in default browser can be extremely inaccurate.
Speaker imbalance. (louder in right speaker) (some units) (Fix for rooted users HERE) ASUS PLEASE just make it so users can select from 2 different profiles (the srs_processing.cfg file is all that needs editing!) or something. This is such an easy fix to implement and it would 'fix' so many peoples device sound. We shouldnt have to root to get this to work ourselves.
Default e-mail app gets stuck 'searching' for emails. No way to tell if it is downloading an amazingly large file or if it's hung. Some feedback from the app saying what it's doing would be helpful.
Wifi frequency band HC option missing in the settings. (all units)
HDMI only outputs at 720p. Possible flickering screen issues. (some units)
Speaker 'pop' issue. After a period of inactivity with the speakers, and then suddenly they are required to play a sound, a small pop is heard, before the rest of the audio plays properly. (some units)
Disk full error. (HC bug. Disk gets filled up with... nothing. A full reset is required to fix it) (some units)
Asus weather widget text display problems. (workaround: either remove and re-add widget, or grab the widget and rotate the screen then dump widget down again.) (some units, perhaps based on the length of the place name?)
Encryption problems. (some units)
Random times, soft reset issue, when connected to the dock. (some units)
No sound after device wakes from standby. (some units)
Plugging in headphones and still getting sound coming from main speakers. (some units)
Speaker fails to resume working after bluetooth a2dp disconnect (some units)
HDMI while connected to some models of tv only gives a black screen. (Most likely a tv rather than a tablet issue. Update your tv firmware.)
Occasionally when trying to move a widget, the widget gets stuck and can float around the screen, wherever you place your finger, but cannot be placed down normally. Pressing the home button dumps the widget back into it's original position, but then device becomes non responsive. Requires powering the unit down to fix. (very rare bug) (all units)
Email list widget doesnt always update when email is received.
No way to save currently taken camera pictures to a different location (microsd card, etc).
Finger/mouse 'click events' not showing in default browser (not showing what was selected before the page loads).
When editing text a few times the green selector mis-aligns making it harder to select what you're trying to highlight or edit.
Cannot use front facing camera with a flash application in browser.
Songs pause at the end of each track, requiring input from the user to proceed when using the default music app, while device is in standby. (App HERE to use in the meantime)
When pressing the fixed 'back' button at the bottom of the screen or the 'back' quick control, while using the default browser, sometimes does not populate the screen with exactly the same page as before (missing text/pictures e.g. going 'back' a page onto a previously displayed google search page shows the google logo and search box, but no search results. Seems to do the same thing with facebook pages too.)
Sometimes website thumbnails in the default browser only show a default icon in the bookmark tab instead of a page preview.
Bookmark widget not loading links properly when clicked. (Temporary solution is to undock, rotate the screen to portrait orientation, then rotate back to landscape)
Default email client shows incorrect notification text (showing previously deleted (or just older) emails info instead of new incoming email) occasionally.
Stock browser infrequent screen lockups.
Random speaker popping when device is in standby (Speaker stays active even when volume is set to 0, ie. 'off').
Spell checker disabled while using the dock.
Dock:
Problem with the dock battery. Avoid allowing your dock battery to empty itself fully, or you may no longer be able to re-charge it. Possible fix HERE.
Problem with standby, early dock units (B4, B5 and B6 keyboard docks) Link HERE.
No way to tell the level of internal dock battery. (unless you plug in the charger) (all units not running the old beta firmware) (XDA member made apps for this HERE and HERE)
Keyboard key delay. (possibly caused by text prediction being enabled. Try turning off and report back.) (some units)
Weather widget vanishes from screen on connecting to dock. (HC 3.2) Remove and re-add widget to fix.
The spacebar key in the youtube app search box (while viewing a video) doesn't function properly. More details HERE.
Stock gallery does not show pictures from USB sticks.
There's a potential problem with all game controllers that require power from the device. As even when you plug in the charging lead, the keyboard dock doesnt seem to charge itself unless the tablet is fully charged already, and the controllers draw power from the dock battery, making any gaming session short lived.
Not able to recharge some dock batteries once the charge is fully depleted. (some units)
Adapter
Known fault with a specific model of charger. (Info HERE)
Things I'd love to see added
A startup sound during the boot animation sequence.
To be able to click a button to refresh all email accounts at once while in the combined view of the default mail app.
Custom speaker level app built-in.
A way to hide the google search box, voice input, apps and + onscreen items.
A way to hide the various media card icons in the notification bar.
A way to select the specific pictures you want to show in the MyZine picture slideshow window. now an added feature

*I'll add details of fixes when I find them. If you find something not listed then please post the info in this thread and I'll update this post. Thanks.*

Maintaining these lists has started feeling like a job so if anyone feels like buying me a coffee (via the donate button) or a new house (wouldn't say no to that one ) it's much appreciated (I've made it through too many sleepless nights with a cup o' Joe lately). Or if you don't like that idea then please consider donating to The Red Cross, as they certainly deserve it a lot more than I do.

They are massive widgets so you basically need an empty screen to add them. As for your other issues I'm not getting those.

Wow...I see what you mean. Why does a widget that seemingly is pretty useless take up so much space ?
My problem with google is getting igoogle. I can get basic google search on dolphin hd but when I log into igoogle I get a blank screen
Just seen a tweet in @paulobriens timeline from @stridger that this update enables signature checking on updates. So, if you apply this update, you may no longer be able to apply custom ROMs.
That being the case, I'm going to avoid this update until a "safe" version is posted/included in MCR.

I'll add this to 1st post then. Cheers for info.
Still attempting to get MyZine running. It working for the rest of you?
They have fixed the compass. Mynet is also now ikn english instead of Spanish one strange thing is that the default device name in mynet is tf102, when it should be tf101. @vibe is now integrated into the mylibrary app and we now have a cloud storage app. im also finding the asus keyboard is not laggy but that's in apps - not tried it in the browser yet.

If it's so, it's a big problem that could cause me to (again) cancel my order because all new Transformers will already have it installed.

If you've already ordered, and your Transformer is expected by the end of April, I seriously doubt this update would be preinstalled.
They are not going to reimage a whole load of boxed up Transformers when they can update via OTA.

"Forever" is the wrong word here - a better word would be "currently".
The update is only just out, and no one has had time to try to work around this issue yet. I would imagine that some bright spark somewhere will come up with something in due course.

New firmware 8.6.5.7

Just updated my eee pad. Does any one know what's new in this firmware. There is no info on Asus website, or maybe I've missed that info on the Asus Support website.

I checked Asus website's download section a few minutes ago and now 8.6.5.7 (DE, TB & WW) incl. HC 3.2 is online for download, BUT the date is 2011/08/12, so the question is, if this is really newer to the release from 2nd August, which caused so much trouble.
I'm a bit confused, because in a german Android forum someone eported, that an Asus supporter told him on the phone, that Asus will release a fix for 3.2 last week.
But as it seems, this is the same update as that from 2nd August, just with a newer release date?
Strange ... any experience?
So far I refused to install 3.2, which was automatically downloaded by OTA early this month to my german TF.

The answer to this question is YES. I downloaded this DE update on my notebook, opened the archive and guess what: The ZIP file in the contained ASUS folder has the date 2011/07/30

[Q] CyanogenMod 9 Zip

Anyone know where I can download the latest CyanogenMod 9 for the Lenovo Thinkpad?
The link from the developer thread points to everyandom dot com and it is saying invalid file.
Thanks!!

It suddenly got very cold in that thread. I hope those boys are ok.
Anyway, on the web page select continue as guest at the bottom of the right column. On the next page enter the security code after waiting the required 20 seconds, then click download when that appears. It works. I just checked.
I believe they are students, along with Volker of Quill fame. Spring break, midterms, and life in general will tend to interfere.

thats the closest your going to get for your TPT, little buggy but definitely gets better with every release
Hadn't much time the last days, compiling a new version for uploading right now (some minor bugfixes and the batterystat fix). Don't worry, CM9 for TPT is still alive

Jelly Bean now on Australian devices

Received a notification this morning that my unbranded Australian Note 10.1 N8000 (CSC XSA) now has an update available. A couple of days ago the N8010 (wifi) also supposedly got the update to Jelly Bean.
Unfortunately it won't do the update yet as the battery is too low even though I have it plugged in, but I'll update as soon as it has enough charge.
OTA update successful. Device is now saying it's on Android 4.1.2.
Build number: JZO54K.N8000XXCMB1
Changes I've noticed so far:
- New blocking mode in settings - can block calls/texts at certain times of the day and can set exceptions for certain people
- Smart rotation - screen rotation now based on the angle of your face, so you can lie sideways in bed and read.
- Accounts section is totally different in settings menu - now separate accounts are listed in the top level menu
- New disclaimer and privacy policy (for the OTA update service)
- Many apps, including stock browser, email, YouTube, etc can be un-maximised and become floating windows which can be dragged around the screen. They can then be re-sized and pinned (made always on top?), This is true even for some third-party apps like Friendcaster, so it looks like it's a native Android thing rather than Samsung-specific. Unfortunately I can't find a way to make them snap to half the screen like the old split-screen mode. *EDIT - The arrow in the bottom middle of the screen brings up options to switch from the cascade to a split-screen view.*
- Browser now has page preloading (in addition to search result preloading which it already had). Can be off, wifi-only (default) or always.
- Stock email app (not gmail) is still slow and clunky. Project butter seems to have done nothing for it.
I'm sure there's lots of other great changes.
Sweet, finally!!!
I wonder though, why does it say this was released in February on Sammobile.com when we're halfway through March? Why was this not pushed out with the n8010 release?

I was wondering that too. It's possible I did miss it by a while, but that's unlikely - I have been regularly checking using OTA, Kies and on Sammobile.com. I suspect it might be backdated to the date Samsung put on the build??
Mate, I've been checking sammobile every day since the N8010 JB update was released, asked Samsung and was informed that they don't answer rom release questions, just given the usual BS about testing and getting it right for us.
I think it's a bit slack though to release a rom almost a month after it should have come out. And it's a real spit in the eye to then back date it to make it look as if it was released on time....
