What makes you say that?
I've just flashed and in the build info it says "US"
it is up on the site now
ETA: The file is smaller than the US or TW, is it missing something?

You can't just flash a US .zip version on a WW_SKU device so i have no idea why you got US in there. I flashed my WW device and worked just fine so is the right version.

#1. Is this destructive in any way? Can I just install from sdcard and keep all my apps and settings?
#2. Is this exclusively for the non-3g version or will it work if you have 3g?
Thanks!
Decided to go for it, but no luck. I unzipped the download and got the proper firmware zip. Copied it to the root of my big SD card. Rebooted and nothing happened. This is on a TF300TG.
big thank you.
thank you.
been stuck with no updates on WW forever.
finalllllllllllyyyyyyyyyy

Because that firmware is only for the TF300T, not for the 3G version. You'll have to wait a little bit longer, until Asus releases a proper version.
Finally got it working, I stupidly didn't realize this was different than OTA and rooted ICS then lost it even with the rootkeeper and supersu. Anyway, no big deal, I only wanted to remove ads...
Now if I could only have JB for my phone, an atrix, I guess it is easier to get a new phone..
I've updated to JB via the OTA but wondering if downloading this WW_SKU and doing a full wipe might be better to get the best performance from the new JB update. Would that make a difference?

If you plan to install the firmware from the Asus website (and not through OTA), you will lose root, but since you unlocked the bootloader that shouldn't be a problem.
In your cause the way I would do it:
- first run Titanium Backup to backup all user apps, then put the backup on an external removable sdcard.
- then copy the firmware to your sdcard.
- your tablet will prompt you that it found the update, then install it.
- after the install is complete do a factory reset to wipe all user data (this will also wipe the default location where Titanium Backup puts it's backups).
- now you have a clean install of Jelly Bean.
- because you unlocked the bootloader you should be able to regain root again.
- after having root back, run Titanium Backup again to put back your apps.
Dang!
I had the US version installed on my tablet with TWRP - downloaded, wiped system, factory reset, and then tried to flash the WW - getting "signature mismatch" errors now.
I can still boot to recovery (now using CWT as I thought that might be the issue) but it seems to load the zip, then reboots - then goes to blank screen with the signature mismatch in the left corner.
I am in Canada and was running the WW version before flashing the 'stock' US JB - is there something that I am forgetting to do that is giving me the mismatch error?

I downgraded my A500 from 3.2 to 3.01 using the method someone posted in the Dev section. It works for me and now I am back to 3.01. I want to upgrade back to 3.1. I tried OTA but it doesn't work as it says my system is up-to-date. What do I have to do? Does it mean I have to flash a new version? How come OTA doesn't work?

You still didn't answer the question "which version did you downgrade to".
Look in settings, about tablet, and see which version you're on.
When I follow the instruction on the post I ended up downgraded to version 1.016.05_COM_GEN1. Do I have to do a factory reset after I downgraded? I didn't see it mention in the instruction.

From Acer recovery installer, install clockwork recovery. Drop you ROM on your external SDCard, power off unit. Power on holding volume key, and hold both until you see CWM. Install file from SD card, choose zip to install, reboot.
I'll never flash without doing a complete wipe and format, but others do.
The acer recovery installer also has a option to install rom from a list they have within the app because I bought the extra features.

Umm as I said in my previous post, I have no idea what your choices are.
I don't use it, as it's a n00bie app.
Sorry I can't help ya there.
The one you are using is rooted stock 3.2? From what I see from the list there are quite a few to choose from. I don't think I need a lot of extra accessories as long as there is ad-hoc fix, drive mount, etc than I am happy.
Doesn't appears under download/install ROM within Acer Recovery Installer. You need to copy it to an USB drive after downloading. Use Acer Recovery Installer to boot into recovery and from there select install zip/ select the usb rom (under sdcard).
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1290318
So this is a rooted HC 3.2? How is this compare to Taboonay 3.2? Does it use the same method for flashing (put it in SDcard and boot by pressing power button and vol-)? Sorry too many questions but I am still new to this flashing thing. Thanks!
Is a stock US GEN 3.2 rooted rom. Without any adds or deleted apps. It's the same Acer OTA stock rom but rooted. You cab install it as Taboonay, using cwm. Just before doing do a full backup and cache and dalvik cache wipe using the included cwm functions.
Hi, i've recently installed hydro 4.1 JB on my asus tf300, but now when i open asus customized setting the app block and go to home screen, i've tried to fix permission on cmw recovery but nothing, i need to change right mouse click, someone can help me plz?
Works fine for me, But I flashed using twrp, which I believe is recommended. If you haven't tried it, give it a spin, I used to be a cwm fan, but recently switched allegiances. Also, wipes were necessary for hydro 4 if you happened to miss that step. Good luck, its a rom well worth the effort

Used TWRP and did a full wipe before flashing and fixed permissions after update.

I tried the Hydro ROM the past weekend and had no issues outside of not being able to use the device as a Mass Storage location when connecting to my PC (still need to reflash to test some things out on that.) But for some help, I would suggest you give us a step by step on how you flashed and what files you used. There are two that are suggested (from what I can read). The base ROM, and then the Update A and Update B. If what I interpreted from what I read, the Update A is needed to bring the Base ROM to the lastest, and the Update B is for those already on the base ROM, though as I read what I just wrote here that seems kinda redundant. I'll have to go back and try to flash update A by itself and see if it contains the whole ROM and Update together.
Anyway, if you can just give some details on your device, the way you flashed, and the files used, we might be able to better direct why the settings are FCing on you.

Using Hydro Ponic
You can get into trouble if you don't get the right install. With a fresh install of the base Rom, you install Update A. On a tf300 with Hydro Ponic already installed and previously updated, you just install the update B. It's possible to jump to the B update after just installing Base Rom but you might be missing some stuff - not surprising if Asus Cust Setting is not working. Always backup before you leap into the install - other wise you risk losing data as you scramble to bring things back into order - I know all about losing data. I use CWM and have never found it lacking, I'm sure TWRP works very well, it's just a preference and comfort level with a Recovery program that one gets used to. Pay close attention to the clearing or wiping of things in the following tutorial: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1663244. The order of doings things is important and don't leave out a step.
What. In. The. World. Got the "System update downloaded" notification this afternoon, and was puzzled since I got this a little over three weeks ago for 4.3, an experience that soft bricked my phone and ruined by life for a few days:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2387196&page=3
Well, lo and behold, today's system update claims to be for 4.3 again:
Only I'm already ON 4.3.
Finally got everything rooted again and set up the way I want, and it's like Google knows it's time to come in and bork my phone again. I did a little poking and saw that this is no doubt the update from JWR66V to JWR66Y:
http://www.droid-life.com/2013/08/2...ta-updates-for-the-nexus-7-hspa-galaxy-nexus/
Only after the last experience, I'm friggin terrified to mess with this and possibly end up in a bootloop or stuck at the X screen forever again. (I'm rooted, no custom ROM, just custom launcher.) EDIT: I should add that, since the last update, I've updated my radios to be able to use 4G LTE, installed the Android browser and all my bookmarks, and made a slew of other customizations, so I'm annoyed that this update comes three weeks on the heels of everything I set up.
Should I try the OTA install or flash the OTA zip files in CWM recovery like the article suggests? Most pain-free ways to ensure my current setup is reinstated without too many gray hairs? Any suggestions welcome. Thanks in advance!
It won't install because your rooted. The new root method relies on the recovery from boot.p file in system that SU changes.
You can flash this update zip file that has been modified not to check that file http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=44886292

The update is occurring because there is a new OTA that is build JWR66Y whereas yours is the V build.

Yeah, thanks--I noted that. My question at the bottom of my post is, what's the best way to ensure I can back up/capture all the customizations I made since so I don't have to go through the nightmare of trying to take three weeks to set everything up again?

OK...I'm guessing that notification will go away once I've flashed that ZIP? My real question is whether once that's done if I have to re-set everything up all over again or if there's a way to backup my new radios/browser/etc.

I have read your edits to the OP and you have changed system files so the update won't install. You modified the build prop for lte and browser app maybe other stuff too. With this update your OK with not having the correct radio.

I had the stock 4.4.3 ROM rooted and with the Xposed Framework installed. No custom recovery or custom kernel ever installed (I always used "fastboot boot /path/to/recovery.img" rather than installing a recovery). The update worked fine for me. All I had to do was (after updating to 4.4.4) go into the Xposed framework installer, tell it to update/install the framework. I installed the 4.4.4 update through the OTA notification I received, not through the link in this thread. For me, the update was 41.1MB not 45MB. I downloaded the OTA over WiFi.
Before I installed the update, I booted ClockworkMod Recovery (again, booted not flashed) and made a nandroid backup. It couldn't backup my /data partition because it's encrypted, so I also made a full backup with Titanium Backup.
Full stock, no mods yet

I had same problem
I was on 4.3.3 stock using exposed installer, I used MotoToolAioV3 to restore stock recovery then took OTA, during install I kept getting an error.
The solution for me was to download stock recovery from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=53702274&postcount=268
extract the recovery then use MotoToolAioV3 to flash it, then accept the OTA and it should work, then if you're using exposed installer do what the other poster said and re-install xposed. Hope this helps.

As I understand it, the main changes from 4.4.3 are compatibility with more SD cards, and some security updates to things like OpenSSL. I'm now able to use my 64GB Samsung EVO class 10 (MB-MP64DA/AM).
I managed to get the update installed after completely reflashing to stock (leaving the bootloader unlocked.)

Thanks dude
I turned it off because I hate it
New update is pretty great. Previously on 4.4.3 the radio would drop all connections seemingly at random when starting up a music app or YouTube, but after upgrading to 4.4.4 the radio seems to hold a much more consistent connection with fewer drops (none so far) . I previously thought this might have been a faulty SIM

I did try to install it, the file downloaded and phone rebooted... then Prince's recovery screen loaded up, forgot I rooted the phone the other day using his excellent "Lenovo K3 Note Manager" tool
I might unroot my phone another day and try to install it again. The only thing bugging me about the marshmallow update is a problem I'm having with bluetooth streaming, songs aren't resuming when I disconnect/reconnect they restart. I doubt this update will fix it anyway, from what I've read it might have to wait until 6.0.1 is released..

After update the wifi is very stable and i am getting the full bandwidth that my ISP provide.
Any way this update can be packaged as an update.zip ??
