Just got Asus TF - how and when it will be updated to official 3.1 - Eee Pad Transformer General

Hello,
Just got my Asus Transformer 16GB from Walmart...so excited!!(ummm don't be jealous - you will get your own once it's available widely JK )
Ok - I turned on the TF - and does anyone know when/how long my TF will get the 3.1 push from Asus? Or I have to download from support.asus.com web site and manually update it
Thx,
rcjpth

Wondering the same thing here. I went ahead and downloaded the FW update at the asus website, but i can't get the tab to pick it up once i transfer it. I'm new at this so any help would be appreciated!

Same here.. I'm not even sure if it's currently wise to upgrade to 3.1 with all the issues people have noted it having.

No issues with 3.1 here and Asus actually pushed it to my device.

How long was it taken so your device received the update 3.1? I'm wondering should I be updating it manually?
Thx,
rcjpth

The update seems to be rolled out by algorithm unknown - some has had to wait days to a week before they receive their update, some get it immediatly.
I received mine the day after the official release in UK. I did a manual check just a few minutes to early, because I received a message that there where no updates available. A few minutes later I get the pop-up about a firmare update being available.

Took me just past an hour, make sure you have more than 50% battery.

I was out of range from 5/31 - 6/6 (evening)... When I returned it connected to my network and immediately DL'd the update - took about 10 minutes.
I have had my TF since May 5th, 32GB.

Yah sorry. My post wasn't meant to say the update took an hour. Rather it showed up after an hour.

I've had mine on for a few hours and still no sign of the update...

Same here. I guess I just have to be patient.

Got update on Thursday, as soon as I opened the box. WW version in Australia.

Yayyy - 2 hours, no update insight yet - no plan to root it because basically nothing special to run or backup - software or purchased apps are stored in market - be prepared for Netflix,,,patient and patient ---- one day Netflix will be played on Asus TF! hhehehe

Alright - I activated my Transformer at 2:55pm and now at 8:30pm it said it got the update - proceeded to the update
For my case, it took almost 5.5 hour to get the update delivered to my TF
Thx all
rcjpth

My 16GB had the update waiting when I first opened the box and turned it on. I went ahead and updated.
But then I found out you can't root with 3.1 yet, so I had to downgrade to 3.0.1 again so I could flash Primordial 3.1.
So don't even bother waiting for the OTA update since you won't be able to root anyway.

I got mine a week ago from Asus OTA. I went to check updates in Settings>About and it said none available, then shortly after I received a notification that an update was available.

Got my update earlier. I did a factory reset and after the initial setup, I went to try and check for update and it found it on my second attempt.
So far youtube has been fine. I dunno about battery life, yet. I've been using it pretty much all day so it's draining quickly.

I have a stock US WiFi (although I'm located in Canada) and haven't received it yet.
I and I am sure many others have not recieved 3.1 yet.
In fact most wifi owners(if not all) who have it flashed it with clockwork recovery or something like that.
I have a stock US 3G version (I'm in the US) and still haven't got an update. It's very Annoying !!!
no update here yet. I have a second Xoom that's been in a box for a few weeks, just powered it up and no update either. Both are 3G.

I have a stock US Wifi Xoom 3.0.1 here in Belgium and still no update eather :s
stock wifi xoom here and nothing so far.. smh. FIGURED IT WOULD BE QUICKER BEING THAT THEY ONLY SOLD LIKE 125 XOOMS.. GRRR
Funny, I started reading this thread when I remembered I haven't checked on my Xoom WiFi yet...and what do you know....it was waiting for me. Installed successfully.
BTW...my Xoom was stock and unrooted...just FYI before anyone asks.
Funny thing...no Movie app as was reported by others. What gives.
Just to add to the chorus. bone Stock, no update.
3G here in Detroit area, bought the minute the doors opened on launch day. No update yet. Been trying to be patient (only checking every hour now), and haven't had free time. Got some free time tonight, though, so will load it manually if it's not appeared by then.

Stock Xoom Wifi in Fort Worth and I have not received it either.
Update: I just got off the phone with Motorola Support and they informed me that the Wifi versions will not received the 3.1 update for another 5 to 7 days.
On a positive note they did say that there is now a fix for the micro SD card and it will be pushed out about the same time as the Wifi 3.1 update!!

BS...I got it this morning. Can't test SD...don't have one on hand...wait until I get home from work.
- Performance wise: I thought it was fast already, so I haven't noticed much.
- Scalable widgets: I like very much...something I loved on my Atrix (MotoBlur)
- Browser Performance: Let me just put it this way...you can finally load the XDA's Forums home page
- USB: Can't test it yet as I don't have a regular-to-micro converter.
Still, I can't find the Movie/Video app
no update here either, stock wifi only

Were you rooted or stock?
And how can you say BS.....
I have come to realize I love my xoom more than it loves me. Everyday, more than a few times, I ask it are you the most current version. Without fail it always answers yes. I just can't turn my love off so I will continue to ask it and hope that soon it will tell me the truth.

I did the nvflash to unroot also and OTA worked fine. You have to make sure you flash the stock recovery and boot.img also.
I used the batch in this thread and chose option 5. : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1185104
The update check may take a few tries before it shows the update, but it will.
Then the OTA will install fine.
not for me in Toronto too....
No update. London, ON. B6O Tf.... though I'm not sure I want 3.2 after hearing all the complaining from those who got it.
So, what's the general feedback on this 3.2 update? Is it worth the trouble of unrooting?

A500 Honeycomb 3.2 Update Hitting USA

I turned on the Iconia today at about 2:00 PM and I was greeted with then Update Available window. I downloaded the update and preformed the installation.
All went very very well and no hiccups. Typing this now on my A500 on HC 3.2.
For those interested, I'm in northern Virginia.
Build is:
ACER_A500_7.006.01_COM_GEN2
Been playing with it for a couple of hours now and so far it is all good.
Couple of things you notice right away is the touch screen operation seems to be much smoother. Mine also wakes up super fast from hibernation mode. You now get a little "SD Card Installed" icon in the notification bar when you boot up.

Got the update
I got my update today as well when I turned it on this morning. I'm in Northern Virginia as well. So far I like it. The browser seems a lot smother to me. I connected it to my laptop to see if I could see files on the external sd card. It showed up as an accessible drive, but none of the folders or files were displayed when I opened it up. I created a folder and it did show up in the file manager.
I was on stock 3.1, no root.
Received the OTA
I also received the OTA today as well. I'm just outside of Nashville, TN. I picked up my tab brand new about 3 months ago. Updated to the same build number as the op. No problems with 3.2 at all. Seems really stable and snappy. This tab has always been stock. Tried the newest build of Netflix for kicks, but no luck. Hopefully they will get it going soon without the need for root.
a lot of nova people on here!
3.2 still isn't rooted though right? wont be upgrading til thats done
got it yesterday (Guadalajara, Mexico). Where can I see the changelog?

You can install Taboonay 2.1 or the near stock ROM from ezterry if you want a rooted ROM based on the 3.2 OTA update. They use a different boot loader. Not sure how long it will be before the developers figure out how to crack the new boot loader, so don't perform the update yet if you think you might want to root it or install a custom ROM.
Look in the deveopers thread if you want more information on the ROMS.
I would be Glad to answer any questions on either one. I have tried them both and they are great. I prefer Taboonay 2.1 because I get to chooce the Acer stock apps I want and skip the ones I don't
Tethering with 3.2
After updating to 3.2 are you still able to tether? I have read where some are having issues getting tethering to work after the update.
Updated to 3.2, lost root, but I was mainly worried about that for Titanium Backup.
I can still tether to my Bionic, but haven't tried connecting to an ad hoc wifi AP yet
Got mine on Monday. No root or mods, never had any.

3.2 finally arrives in the UK

Not sure why it takes three months to get the UK update to 3.2 after the US, but it finally arrived on my MZ604 today... perhaps it's translating from American to English

With films now in the market and a slightly prettier Google+ update, tonight's been pretty good
The keyboard lag seems better I've noticed while typing this out
Has anyone on a MZ601 received the 3.2 update?
I wonder if this will fix the Tiamat 2.2.2 market issue of missing apps?
What build is this?
Can somebody get the link or the zip file for the update please?
I am on a US 3.2 but might have to switch back for this.
There's one good thing about this update, quickoffice HD
considered wiping my xoom and setting it back to the UK 3.2 image - but then thought if i stick it out on the US 3.2 image then i'll probably get ICS 3 months quicker than the UK...

nope looks like wifi only for now....*sigh*
iv just got my update aswell let see after the download if all the bugs iiv found are fixednstill contemplating to root it :/ my sgs22 is but might wait till I get board lol
Is this update 66.0.23.en.EU that we're talking about here?
I've got the option to update to this but my MZ604 is rooted using the any update/any version method so dunno if its wise to update or not.
Can anyone clarify if I can apply this update and still be rooted or will it break stuff?
Cheers.
Why on earth do the 3G's (who paid more for their devices too!) get the updates after the standard Xooms? It's a ridiculous situation - it's not as if Moto don't know the difference between the two and can't create the update for both at the same time! GRRRR
Wen will 3g get it? I might just sell up and get xoom two next month

Honestly? Xoom = fail
I don't get upgrades on time and most of uk banks charge for all market purchases (£1.25 on top for overseas transactions) - not like there is anything interesting to look for anyway (most of apps look and operate like s..t).
I wanted to buy something else then Apple and I ended up with clunky, laggy, buggy, overpriced (£570) prototype of a tablet. Now value dropped 50% and all truth came out - it's just ipad-wannabe.
(also I barely managed to write down this rant because of stupid keyboard lag...).
ICS? I'm tired of waiting. Google can't even release one simple upgrade on time... I'll wait for iPad 3 instead and I promise you that - I will have it before ICS upgrade. At least Apple is always on time with their stuff.
I know this is for the UK 3.2 but it's looking good for AUS - I really hope this resolves the Tiamat market issue!
Just in from Motorola Australia facebook page
"Hi guys, we know you're all eager to download the latest 3G Xoom 3.2 software for 3G devices. We wanted to provide you with another update on timings. Approvals are still in progress and we hope to be able to push the upgrade within the next week. We appreciate your patience."

I wouldn't be in a rush for 3.2 if I were you - I recieved it over the weekend and lost the ability to write to the SDCard again! It was there in 3.1, gone in 3.2 - SDCard is back to read-only, unless you connect via a PC.
Sure, you get an Office app, and some printing utility etc, but going back to read-only SD cards is a major backward step for me!
updated yesterday and then rooted using the 'any xoom any update' in the developement forum. Everything ok

[Q] No update

No ICS update on stock unit with Acer enhancement installed. I live in Toronto Canada and have not had the update as of yet. Apr 27 8:30 am. Does anyone know if this is normal ie: still rollout by serial number.
I'm also in Toronto. No update yet...but I'm in no hurry...not until I understand the potential collateral damage...like apps that don't work etc.
+!.
Still waiting in Nova Scotia.
Nothing yet in Montreal area
Nothing yet in PEI either.
If you haven't received the update yet, check to see if you've received the ICONIA TAB Update Enhancement from the Play Store.
It just came through after I updated.
The Acer Enhancement was made available in the play store several weeks ago. I agree that it has some funcionality with the ICS upgrade however your note mentioned that you recieved it after you updated, do you mean after you were upgraded to ICS.
