False alarm; a classic case of not reading prior to posting. Lol....

[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.

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.

[Q] Updated to 3.1 manually, didn't recieve dock update ?

Hi, I just recieved my transformer third replacement, and this unit is good, no defect whatsoever so far, but I powered it on, charged it, and I couldn't find any update to 3.1 OTA... So I applied manually the 3.1 update from asus website with a microSD.
Great now I am on 3.1...
But, I am not recieving the notification to update the dock ! Like I had on my previous transformers which updated over the air.
Is there any way to update the dock with a microSD card ??? Thanks a lot. I used the search engine but didn't find any answer on this topic.
I know my dock is not updated because when I press the spacebar it doesn't wake up the tablet's screen, and this particular behavior was present on my previous dock updated transformers.
Yes I don't recall the detailed steps offhand but you download the firmware update for the tablet from Asus's website and put it on SD card adn update that, then once it reboots it prompts you to update the dock. It was very easy and the steps are on Asus's site alongside the firmware downloads.

If your dock is already at firmware 209, there is no newer updates available. 3.1 did not come with a newer firmware for the dock (contrary to what was stated by ASUS on Twitter)
I just got my dock yesterday....it is 207 FIRMWARE and it is STILL at 207 even though I have 3.1 installed.
Can someone just simply the 209 firmware please?
All you need is here
http://www.asus.com/Eee/Eee_Pad/Eee_Pad_Transformer_TF101/
Also the 3.1 firmware isn't the same as the firmware for the device itself, and the dock, those are all 3 separate downloads.

As much as we appreciate the effort that you put into giving us that link.....there are NO firmwares there for just the dock.
Sorry.
You can downgrade to 3.0.13 which has the 209 firmware, or root and install Prime 1.4 which has the 209 firmware in the ROM.

VERY strange then since I am running the latest Prime 1.4. Still shows 207.

US Update - Acer_A500_4.010.08_COM_GEN2

So according to the file here - http://global-download.acer.com/GDF...A TAB&Step3=A500&OS=ALL&LC=en&BC=ACER&SC=PA_7
B. Country: USA
- Supported OS version: Acer_A500_1.141.07_COM_GEN1
- Upgrade to OS version: Acer_A500_4.010.08_COM_GEN2
Usa should have "Acer_A500_4.010.08_COM_GEN2"
However is ANYONE getting that update? I manually ran "Acer_A500_4.010.22_COM_GEN1" but obviously that does not appear to be the right one for the US model, thats for UK/France/Italy/Spain.
If anyone has Acer_A500_4.010.08_COM_GEN2 update.zip please post it.
Thats the build number I have. It came OTA back on the 6th, update to 3.1. I think that if you search the forums, the update .zip had been posted, I just can't for the life of me remember where.
got 4.010.08 ota a few days ago, then 4.010.09 two days ago, and now I am on 4.010.10.
same for me!

How are you guys getting builds above .08? Are you and your device in the US. I'm in dire need of an update but still on this original one releases last week. 08
Sent from my A500 using XDA Premium App
are we ever getting the update here in the Mid-West?
Well I am really starting to wonder then, I have never gotten ANY update.
I restored back to stock 1.104.02_COM_GEN1 and recovery, no update.
I updated manually with update.zip for 1.141.07_COM_GEN1, and back to stock recovery, no update.
I have tried from different networks and internet connections just in case something was blocked. I am in Florida BTW.
It NEVER sees and update. Any suggestions anyone?
be patient, i believe the US rollout might be slow due to updates???
No i havent gotten mine either.....
Bump.
So no one has received "Acer_A500_4.010.08_COM_GEN2"?
I've tried going back to stock images:
1.104.02_COM_GEN1 - No updates
1.141.07_COM_GEN1 - No updates
4.010.01_COM_GEN2 - No updates
4.010.04_COM_GEN1 - No updates
So to sum that up, I've never seen an OTA on any build... any thoughts guys?

Just got this Iconia at Costco July 3.
I registered it at startup. Never received an unsolicited OTA update. But used setting/about tablet/System update.
Got the original .08 3.1 about 7/5 or so, never wrote it down
Acer Iconia Bought 7-3-11
Acer_A500_4.010.09_COM_GEN2 on 7-11-11
Acer_A500_4.010.10_COM_GEN2 on 7-13-11
Running 1st OTA leak of 4.010.04_com_gen1 that was rooted and loaded via CWM, and managed to get 4.010.10 via OTA last night while I'm out in Boston. Connection was through hotel's Comcast wifi network if that may help map out the roll-out.
Of course it didn't work as I don't have the stock bootloader and it fails when you try. It's a small update of something like 80mb or so. Obviously from a few posts here, someone's thought that the last .10 number refers to region is not correct and it is the standard version format that we all know. (major.minor.patch) At least for 3.1 at any rate.

Any chance you have the update.zip file for 4.010.10? If so I can provide you a site to upload it to.
I just received my 2nd Honeycomb 3.1 update last night

Acer_A500_4.010.40_COM_GEN1 is the highest one I have seen now... it almost seems as though the last 2 digits are random at this point. I can't see acer putting out a build per day.
What does your buiild.prop show in /system/build.prop

.40 is an update for the international Eurasia versions of the tablet. ie: Thailand, Aussie, India, Swiss.
.38 seems to be an update for the European versions of the tablet ie: France, UK, Spain.
To clarify, .22 (Euro - UK, France, Spain, etc.) ROMS should update to .38 and .24 (Eura - Swiss, India, Thailand, Aussie) ROMS should update to .40
I haven't seen a US update yet. I myself got .08. I'm completely stock, not even rooted, never have and mine came on the 6th.
Someone in here reported being updated to .10, that MAY be ours.

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.

2.20.40.100 new update

I just received this update, its 37 MB I haven't noticed anything different so far, probably some bug fixes.
I'll update if I notice anything new.
Wew, so fast.
There are no changelog of 40.100 On the zentalk.
Are you for real?
Hope I get this soon, .97 is killing me, voice no longer receives txt's unless I force refresh and my home screen is super slow to load
Don't see anything on zentalk about it nor do I have an update available... At 37mb, prob just little fixes...
I know everyone seems to update manually via the zip, but I just wanted to confirm that we can update with the FOTA app if we used root method 3 (locked bootloader).
Edit:
Nevermind, I ended up using a collective update to bring me from an older firmware version.

Oh yeah I just saw the screenshot, I should have mentioned that I have installed the CN firmware for better battery life because I was getting only 3 hours ost with WW .
I was on 2.20.40.97 so i gues the WW update will follow.

The only difference is that we have to install the play store manually and the ost is between 4 hours if you game and close to 5 if you don't game.
i get good reception I never had any problem, I get 4g where I used to have with my galaxy s5 and the same speed with WW firmware.
After you install the play store you won't tell the difference between CN firmware and WW other than the better battery life.

Cool then, for some reason my WW phone works just fine, sometimes though Android OS drains a lot of battery but playing with Greenifier and the Autostart Manager helped me bypass this partly. I believe that Android 6 will probably fix any problem with the battery
Did you also get the phone out of the Eshop.gr crazy sundays offer?

I wish they would update the graphics driver or something because the performance stuttering even in simple games like Subway Surfers is very annoying.
