Same for me. I bought my tablet in Malaysia but I live in Australia. Still haven't received a prompt for an update and I force it to check several times a day. Getting really annoying to see so many other people getting the update and talking about how fast the browser is now. =/

[Q] System update?

Yesterday I got a popup message stating that there is a system update available. Version 1.126.03. If I remember correct. I clicked the download. Now it wants to be installed. Is this a honeycomb update or a acer?
I am scared. My acer is rooted, could it be harmed?
Anyone else got this? Maybe i have a older iconia a500 than you. I got mine from singapore.
Must be an EU update. I haven't seen anything yet.
Nothing here yet either.
Nothing here in us winder what it a dresses

I don't know where to look. It was 20mb big. Is there some search app in market that can search on size?
No update available here in Greece yet.
No update here in Italy... waiting for some news about it...
no update found in netherlands. 'Your device is up to date'
No updates in france
Nothing here in the US unless it happened automatically.
I also got message on screen about new update yesterday when I powered on my tab. I went ahead with the update, but have not noticed any significant differences after the update. My iconia was bought from Taiwan, but now used in Finland. It's not rooted though..
Under settings/About tablet there are now the following versions:
Android version 3.0.1
Kernel version 2.6.36.3
Build number Acer_A500_1.126.03_COM_GEN1
Not sure what those versions were before I applied the update..
If only 20mb, must be some patches.
call acer
if you are not sure call/go to there site and see if they have any updates listed
no update on acer us site.
With Jake's data I can at least confirm that his builds and versions after he applied the update are different from mine.
I got my A500 a couple of days ago here at Best Buy in Boston, MA. I am not getting any notification of any System update, but my data is as follows:
Android Version: 3.0.1
Kernel Version: 2.6.36.3-00001-g9b3ce2b
Build Number: Acer_A500_1.104.02_COM_GEN1
So, Jake's build number after the update is higher at least.

Doc Kinne
Somerville, MA
Nexus 1 running 2.3.3
Iconia A500 running 3.0.1
bought mine in Dallas on Sunday, same version numbers as kinnerc
well.. i desided to install the update that i downloaded. Got a message that its invalid and canceld. Now i cant update anymore. Its up to date it says.
Strange.!!!
Maybe certain geographically located servers released a build too soon? Who knows.

Some Questions about Updating

Hi,
a few weeks ago I updated my stock german Xoom so the following:
Model Number: XZ601
Android Version: 3.0.1
Firmware: GAS_EMEA_USAEVRSTUTMDE_P007
Baseband Version: N_01.83.21P
Baseband Configuration Version: UCAEVEUB1B8EU02D.0R
Kernel Version: 2.6.36.3 [email protected] #1
Build Number: H.6.1-38-5
I think this was not really software update but I did this to root the thing. Now, when I click System Upgrade, the device tells me it was up to date. Is this update functionality gone since I rooted the tablet or is Motorola still not providing Android 3.1 in EMEA?
Is there a working manual update to german 3.1 out by now? I think last time I checked there was none. Can someone bring me up to speed plz?
cheers
mathiase
My stock german xoom is not getting update either when i check for update. and its absolutely stock, i did not root it or do anything to it.
i guess 3.1 did not land in EMEA yet...at least not in Germany...
Hi,
okay that means it does not necessarily have to do with my rooted version. But the question remains: will I get the update through the usual channel with the rooted device?
Motorola is really straining me here ... What about manual updates? Is there something out for german devices by now?
cheers
mathiase
I hadn't heard of any updates going out to anyone other than japan/china/australia?

[Q] Is this the stock or pre-production ROM for P6800

Is this the stock or pre-production ROM because I'm not sure.
My tablets code is XSG (it's UAE) but I needed more keyboard writing languages so I asked the guys from the shop where I got it to add some or change the ROM but only for a stock one, I don't need a rooted one (still )
Anyway, in Kies now I can't update my software because it says that it doesn't support updates via Kies but before the ROM change I was able to...
This is what I ended up with... maybe it is the ROM for Russia, because I saw it on one of their sites...

Nope, your build and baseband are XXLA4 and XXLA3, which translates to:
XX = Open ROM (non-region specific)
L = Year 2012 (K was 2011, J was 2010, etc.)
A = Month of January (B is Feb, C is March, etc.)
3 or 4 = Version made that month.
So, your modem baseband was the 3rd build made in the month of January in 2012. Your ROM build was the 4th one made in the month of January in 2012.
When I bought my 7.7 back in January, it came pre-installed with ZSKL2. So that was the Chinese/Hong Kong specific ROM, and it was the 2nd build made in December of 2011.
If you had a pre-production ROM on your device, it would probably be something like XXKI3 or the like... I just made that up BTW.
Thanks... but does anyone know why I can't update with Kies?

It's possible that your ROM doesn't tally with their servers or you set the csc wrong.

TF101G WW 9.2.2.4 Out in Italy

Official TF101G OTA WW 9.2.2.4 is now live (in Italy)!
Downloading...
Switzerland too.
My TF101G is currently downloading the new update, whatever release it will be.
Upgrading from ICS 4.03
Cheers
Martin
System Informations after 9.2.2.4 update:
Model: Transformer TF101G
Android version: 4.0.3
Base band version: 11.810.09.17.00
GPS Version: 6.9.12
Wi-Fi Version: 6.3.1.24
Bt Version: 8.30
Kernel: 2.6.39.4-00027-g3b35b62 [email protected]#1
Build: IML74K.WW_epad-9.2.2.4-20120424
I don't see any "face unlock feature", but this is the official ASUS Italy changelog:
*Improves System Stability
*Improves Email App Stability
*Improves AppBackup App
*Improves MyLibrary stability
*Supports W-Fi Direct
*Supports unzip in File Manager
*Adds restore tab function in Browser
So, i think it's 3G version of "old" 9.2.1.21 TF firmware!
After the Upgrade we have the following situation
Model: TF101G
Android: 4.03
Baseband: 11.810.09.17.00
GPS-Version: 6.9.12
Wi-Fi-Version: 6.3.1.24

C'mon ppl , this is likely Da Fix everyone here been waiting for . Lets get bz trying to create CWM or NVFlash version of complete .4 image. Any other countries see this rolling out yet ?
In Spain is rolling out too. Installed and testing. We'll see if tomorrow morning the SoD's are gone.
Downloaded and installed here in South Africa as well.
Still have the problem that the tablet reboots as soon as I unlock with simcard for 3g use.
Didn't have this problem before ICS.
I'm hoping this will also sort out the random closing of programs I've had of late.
Very happy to see an update.
Sent from my Transformer TF101G using Tapatalk
No SoD's or reboots til' now, but this update isn't the long awaited tf101's .24 equivalent for tf101g, as there isn't face recognition unlock or improved mail application as there are on .24.
My tf101g had a SoD an hour ago. I think that 9.2.2.4 is .21 for the 3g version, so problems are not solved.
In Hungary is rolling out too.
In Hungary is rolling out too. I will install and testing.
Update: No FC, No reboot yet. Without wakelock. 16 hours ago!
Also in Latvia
The question is do I even need this update just to get unzip function for never used File Manager and restore tab function for never used browser. The rest of the updated apps doesn't even count. So what exactly is ment by 'Improves system stability'?
No sign of this update yet for me in UK - anyone else?
Any word on if this update was the one that was also supposed to be pushed to the non 3G devices?
apparently, the "main" stability fix we're all waiting for is not out yet, but is getting ready for FOTA ... hrs ? days ?
"gary" from ASUS stated as much somewhere, today.
I'm from Poland. I received update (9.2.2.4) a few days ago.
I had reebots before the update so I was hoping it would resolve the problem.
Unfortunatelly nothing has changed.
I have 1-2 reebots a day.
Asus - GET TO WORK!!!!!!!!!
Has anyone figured out what this update actually does? Asus haven't provided any information that I can find
Update:
So I bit the bullet and started the update... and now it's frozen in the middle of the update process
Update 2:
I held down the power button to force it off. Turned it on again and the update process restarted. It's still going at the moment, and has passed the point where it previously froze. *crosses fingers*
I've also received the update and lost my root rights. Voodoo Root Keeper, Nachoroot and TSparkyRoot doesnt work. Does someone else have this problem too?
9.2.2.4 is worse
Hi i received 9.2.2.4 on 12 may in south africa. When the transformer tf101g goes to sleep i cannot wake it. First time i waited the 100 hours for the battery to go flat. Now of course one can push volume down as you boot.
Is there any way to get it back to factory defaults like a laptop?
Don't think the previous images are kept anywhere.
Thanks
can you guys upload 9.2.2.4 OTA update .zip package?
image available from asus
Sorry to take so long to answer. I do have 9.2.2.4 WW . The image is also available from asus support. Our internet connections are really slow in sourh africa but i will upload from work if you like. Just tell me where to upload to.

Typical size for a kernel update. Looking inside the OTA file from Sammobile, there is nothing more.

This firmware is as smooth as LRQ. Not more.
After a reboot, i've _not_ lost icons for applications on my SD-Card (I've created custom folders). For me, it's a BIG plus.
I'm still root !!!
I plugged my phone in to my PC and loaded up KIES and no update. So this isn't an official update, it's an official leak! At least at the moment!
nothing change.
