[INFO] ASUS Transformer OTA Update

According to the ASUS UK facebook page there is an OTA update is due to start rolling out tomorrow (19th April) at 5:00am (12:00pm Taipei time)
Lets see what goodies this bring, it is suppose to enable the PC sync amongst other things, possibly the cloud storage?

I don't remember getting this update. Can I use the newer updates if I didn't get this one?

From April....
G2x - 2.3.7 CM7
Transformer - 3.2 Revolver OC/UV

[Q] Android 3.1

When I was looking for a date when the Galaxy Tab 10.1v would get an update to Android 3.1 i found this link.
http://mobile.downloadatoz.com/tuto...-1-8-9-7-to-update-android-3-1-honeycomb.html
Can it be or not? Can't even find the download though.
Do you guys know when Samsung will release 3.1 officially?

This is most certainly fake. First of all the picture doesn't even have honeycomb on it. Secondly they say that the Galaxy Tab 10.1 will be the first device to get 3.1 while the others are waiting just to get gingerbread 2.3.4
Two things wrong with that, the xoom already has 3.1 and they are comparing a tablet which will get 3.1 eventually to other "devices" waiting for 2.3.4 which are smartphones which will never get 3.1 because 3.1 is intended for tablets and google tv.
This is one of those crap put together sites with misinformation.

He's absolutely crazy if he think the Galaxy Tab 7 is getting Android 3.1 anytime soon (if ever).

I am not sure, but I am hoping the update is out by June 8th when they release the Samsung 10.1 in US.
I can at least give you somewhat good news. Android 3.1 was released last Friday in the US on the Motorola Xoom. So it is officially out and I am assuming and hoping that it should be released shortly on the Samsung.

Has anyone in EU received the 3.1 update yet?

Just wondering if anyone has got the update yet? I checked mine this morning and it said up to date.

Source from official Xoom Forum :
The 3.1 update for the Motorola XOOM™ outside the U.S. has started. Owners in Japan started receiving the update today (June 21). Owners in other regions can expect updates to start over the next several weeks until the roll out is complete.
Motorola has responded to the widely-expressed desire to have the SD card activated on Motorola XOOM. The 3.1 update for non-U.S. devices, in addition to many other improvements, also includes an SD card activation solution. Release notes for this update will be made available in each region. Please note that functionality varies by region.

The standard Android update release time schedule
several weeks could equal anything from a few days to a few months.

It could end up being that (few months)...proper English would indicate that several or a few weeks would be more than two weeks but less than 5 weeks. Two weeks would be a "couple of weeks" and "three to four would be several or a few" more than 5weeks would be more than a month (if more than 4 weeks were planned then they should use months or an actual number of weeks as a qualifier).
P.S. this was written with humor (writing work scopes today) in mind. We all know that they have a hard number in mind and a date to start roll out, but are being cagey for business reasons.

The information is somewhat misleading, I saw they were rolling out but not that it was only in Japan so far until later. Not sure why they bothered posting on the Moto Europe FB account when in fact the EU rollout hasn't started. It's pretty crap that none of these companies deploying Android updates can manage to do it at a faster pace!

I am quite sure that the rollout has not started yet and that Motorola is just trying to calm down their customers.
Why do i believe that?
I was among the first to buy the german version of the Motorola Xoom (offered by T-Mobile) and i am checking for updates on a daily basis.
Up to now the message is always the same: Your system is up to date (should be better named: There is no update for you, as the system is definitely not up to date).
Besides that there is no updated image that can be downloaded offline and applied to the device via adb.
When the Motorola Milestone received its update, at the same time the announcement has been made, the offline image update was available for download.
So go and figure yourself .....
Kind regards,

Just got my Xoom today, be nice to use it to its full capacity..

Update ICS Canada XOOM Wi-Fi

Calling all Motorola XOOM Wi-Fi owners: Your tablet experience just got a lot sweeter! Starting today the Android 4.0, Ice Cream Sandwich upgrade will begin rolling out to your device. Get ready to enjoy updated web browsing, a redesigned app launcher and all the unique features only ICS can offer: http://bit.ly/JVnFdI

Good to see Motorola has started rolling out their non-Google proprietary ICS builds for the Xoom. Hopefully this means MZ601, MZ605 and MZ606 won't be far behind.
Let the "Why hasn't Verizon approved Google's ROM for rollout to the 3/4G Xoom yet??" begin in 3..2..1..

Has Motorola loaded the Canadian ICS with any 'extra' software?
What version of Android 4 is it using? (4.0.3 or 4.0.4?)

It is 4.0.3 version of ICS

Additions
Equalizer now available in music player..By pressing power and volume down at same time gives you a screenshot of what's on your screen..Panorama now available in camera mode. Nice tweaks....

Trying to download the Canadian Xoom Wifi image from the page at http://developer.motorola.com/products/software/ but the site seems to be down.
Does anyone have the direct link to the image?

Still hasn't pushed out to my Xoom.
Is there a way to force the update?

I just flashed my Australian Xoom with the Canadian images but it only upgraded itself to Honeycomb 3.2.
Flashed back to the US images (4.0.4).

Lucky buggers, I hope the uk version isn't far behind. Still, took them long enough!

I'm very interested to hear if there are any significant differences in the Canadian ICS rom compared to the US one (i.e. SD card access debacle in 3.2 awhile back when Canadians could access it, but the US version couldn't).

Does it fix the keyboard lag present in HC 3.2? I'm in UK so hopefully we'll see this update in the next few weeks.

I'll take that as a no then?

I've read it improves the keyboard lag to a point that its not noticeable. I don't know personally since I'm still waiting

I had mine updated last night...
was great at first, felt snappy!
Then I fell victim to the constant freezing every time it went to sleep. It's pretty much unusable right now for me, unless I keep it awake all the time.
I waited so long (didn't expect it really) for ICS, so I'll wait a bit longer for Motorola to hopefully figure out a fix. Isn't just me, so I'm hoping that happens!

Motorola upgrade timeline, several ICS updates delayed

While Motorola may have promised Jelly Bean updates for their most recently launched RAZR devices, for other Moto owners life isn't so peachy on the update front. The device software upgrade page has been updated, and it isn't going to make happy reading for some.
The Atrix 4G and Atrix 2 now read as "further plans coming soon," having previously been pegged to update to ICS in Q3. The Xyboard 8.2 and Xoom Family Edition are also in the same boat, only the pair of tablets are still provided with a date sometime in Q4. Also slipping into the Q4 category is the DROID Bionic.
We previously reported that devices such as the DROID 3 would remain on Gingerbread, and one has to only hope that the same isn't about to be said of some of these. The Atrix 2 isn't even a year old, so to see it left languishing in a pre-ICS world would be a sorry sight. Slipping dates leave us feeling less doomsday, yet still with a slightly ominous feeling. If Moto is already talking the Jelly Bean talk, one does have to wonder where some of these ICS updates are hiding.
Of course, there is always the promise of a $100 credit towards a new Motorola phone should your 2011 onwards device not get updated to Jelly Bean. So don't go throwing away that Atrix 2 just yet.

I can't believe it! I just bought my ATRIX 4G thinking it would have ICS!

Hey, if you think that's bad, the Canadian one won't get it at all!

I read a article on AndroidPolice which said that at Motorola Event, they announced that Atrix 2 and anything before that phone will not receive ICS update Sucks balls

They can't meet the dateline so they move the goal post again. Enjoy the waiting game.
