Trying to update but fails - Transformer TF300T General

I downloaded the new Jelly Bean update from ASUS because I had not yet received it over the air. When I try to flash it using TWRP i immediately get a failed error. I am rooted and the bootloader is unlocked.
1. Do I have to relock the bootloader and if so, how?
2. Can I flash this update using TWRP?
I wiped my cache, Dalvik cache, and System.

Where did you get it from the ASUS site? I can test it out for you. Also unlocked and rooted.

Here is the link. Select Android as your system and then download the version for the US SKU.http://usa.asus.com/Tablet/ASUS_Transformer_Pad/ASUS_Transformer_Pad_TF300T/#download

I think those are all for JB 4.1, whereas the new update is 4.2.1.

[Q] How to Downgrade to 4.1.1 or Original for TF300T???

Hey guys!
I am trying to downgrade my current Stock 4.2.1 Rom to either 4.1.1 or 4.1.2 either stock or custom if possible even factory original.
How would I go about doing this as there is no clear cut instructions I could find....not sure if I can use NVFlash???
I previously had root performed using the VoodooOTA Method. Now I have unlocked the bootloader and also managed to install the TWRP Custom Recovery....although I do not think it has been installed correctly as it is unable to mount certain directories...../cache or /data and /system are some examples.....not sure if that is because of version or because of changes done to root enabler by new firmware upgrade.
If anyone has clear instructions or could point me in the right direction I would highly appreciate it!
Thanks
There might be a few issues with the new OTA update and recovery, if you already have a backup with nvflash from when you had ICS then yes there is a guide you can use to go back,
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1894867
if not then you should either try to flash one of the stock ROMs mentioned in the sticky in the Android Development section
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1697227
or if you think twrp is not working well you should wait just in case you do damage to your device. There is a chance some partitions have been altered in the new update and twrp needs to be updated, by whoever is responsible for our version, to be able to function properly.
If the reason you want to go back is the launcher then there is an option to switch to the 4.1 launcher in the options, not sure where exactly but if you look a bit further down in this section you'll find someone else posting something about it.
And a last suggestion is that when you have a question better post it in the appropriate section

hahahaha! funny u mention that coz i think I screwed up :silly: ...What I did was download the official bootloader from the Asus Website ASUS Transformer Pad TF300T Firmware: V10.4.2.20 Only for US SKU (Android 4.1) and use fastboot to flash the blob file.....now the only thing it does is spin at ASUS (boot loop)....The funny thing is it did affect how the fast boot option loads though it now shows up with the option of USB....and does not automatically go to fastboot.....my comp recognizes both in fastboot and adb the device so there is something......just performed a cache and dalvik wipe but to no vail and prior did a fix permission.....ALSO I do not receive any error with regards to mounting like before....
btw....which section would this fall under??? Development?
OKAY!!!!!! Im back in business.....WOOT!!! It worked just had to perform a factory reset to stop boot loop

I am pretty sure he said that he is unlocked and running twrp, you can flash whatever rom you want from recovery but it will not bring back the ICS bootloader and the ability to have NVFLASH or even the 4.1 BL, so in reality he flashed a new rom and not actually downgrade to the previous state of the tablet.

That is actually correct, I dont know if itwill work in general but I previously had my OS rooted and backed up using Voodoo OTA Rootkeeper. The only thing that I did new from here on is
1. Backup an Nandroid using ADB Terminal Access -
Code:
adb backup –apk –shared –all –f C:\Android_Asus_4-2-1.ab
Ofcourse in-order to perform this feat you would need Android SDK Tools Package and Google USB Drivers installed on the drive
2. Perform the unlock bootloader using the apk found on the Asus Website
3. Flash Stock Rom that can be downloaded from Asus or here
using fastboot
4. Flash TWRP for JB using fast boot with help of link
5. Go into recovery Wipe Dalvik and Cache and Factory Restore
6. And boot!
Okay I know this is no GUIDE as I am press with time....I will try to make a proper one. but in all honesty I would just wait for the REAL DEV's to post the solution to 4.2.1

Hi,
I need to downgrade my tab as my touch doesn't work and need to flash other firmware it. It was told to me to downgrade and it should work, but was said I need TWRP because with CWM I could brick my tab. Without touch it's impossible to use TWRP. I have ulocked bootloader and rooted. Your guide doesn't seem to need of use exactly TWRP as Wipe Dalvik and Cache is worked when I rooted tab.

[Q] Problems updating nexus 10 to 4.3 after root...

So I have my nexus 10 rooted, with no custom ROM on it. I got the prompt that there was a system update, clicked it and it reboots into recovery like it's going to install it, and says verification failed.
I've tried manually downloading it and flashing it through recovery like it was a custom ROM and still get the same error.
How can I update my tablet with 4.3 and stay completely stock? Is there a ROM to flash or something? Thanks!
I am having the same issue and would love a solution.
I have TWRP as recovery, and the update attempted is JWR66Y from JWR66V

Same here. I even tried unrooting to apply the update and then root again after. Couldn't get the thing to unroot!
Had the same problem. The update will fail if you've installed a custom recovery. Re-flash the stock recovery and the update should work.

Android Central has the log change. It's bug fixes really.
Also, in this thread a user states that apparently only with the full 5.0.1 can you install it with CWM.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/shi...p-nvidia-shield-tablet-ota-android-5-t2982677
You will lose root and CWM after the reboot but those took about 3 minutes to get back .. easy peasy. I'm now at 5.0.1 on my shield with root and CWM.
Cheers.
Hello aegern,
deletes the full update all the data? can you give me the recovery and root attach files?

So here's what I did:
Download the full OTA then reboot to CWM (assuming your rooted + recovery) and unmount system partition ( I believe all others were unmounted) and then delete system, data, cache partitions respectively. Then flash the OTA zip followed by latest supersu.
Just tested this method and I have a rooted 5.01 32GB LTE US model working flawlessly. Even managed to take out the top spot in Hwbot Prime for the Shield (woops to newb for links I see lol)

So, did it work for you? I've tried the file in both this link and the official update and get the same thing with both. I'm still on KK and I can't install either the 5.0 or the 5.01 updates. I get the same "this is an ardbeg" error with any update I try to flash, and I'm flashing the full files, not the incremental updates. In fact, I have two tablets (both lte) and I updated the first one to 5.0 a week ago, no problem, but the new one I just bought, I can't even though I'm using the same files (cwm and update). I'm stumped.
Bah. nm. I went back and reinstalled the recovery from here again, http://forum.xda-developers.com/shi.../recovery-cwm-recovery-nvidia-shield-t2848064. Flashed 5.01 just fine. Not sure where I got the other recovery.

Hi dgjenkins, sorry answer so late. So, answering you first, not, it did not work for me. I actually did give up, the bad was that I tried so many ways to do it that I freezed the tablet and did not start again. Well, looking out there, I found this amazing video who saved my tablet of bust it again the wall and start from the original firmware.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GsMo1tPlIFU
I did intal the Minimal ADB and Fastboot
Copy the image files in to the Minimal ADB and Fasboot directory c:\Programs Files (x86)\Minimal ADB and Fastboot
Ope Minimal ADB and Fastboot
-Type: fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
-Type: fastboot flash boot boot.img
-Type: fastboot flash system system.img
-Type: fastboot flash userdata userdata.img
-Type: fastboot flash staging blob
-Type: fastboot flash dtb tegra124-tn8-p1761-1270-a04-e-battery.dtb
And done . I can now install the updates from the stock firmware. Maybe I will root it again once a stable way to root the shield tablet appear out there. :cyclops:
Happy Holidays and Thanks for the interest! :good:
Nvidia updates definitely trump Android ones. These days, Google is in the habit of pretending that a nexus 5 camera bug is worthy of a new Android version (that was KitKat) or that an update is a great place to break functionality (App Ops, also with KitKat). Anything that's not a minor version with updates you know you want... Avoid on a non Nexus unless you have a great reason for it.
Manufacturers besides Google, see, they do this thing I like to call quality control. They generally release an OS that is ready for the hardware and software*. Crazy, right?

It's certainly a messy thread the way that the OP is laid out that's quite awkward to find anything in! You have to click the grey buttons in the Op where there appears to be a link which will then take you to Mega so you can download at something around 0.5Mbps per year! Have a look at https://mega.nz/#F!bt4UCYiC!LkwGvQqJx4orzQJUDQS13g which appears to be the link once you finally manage to find it. (look under OTA and Incremental)

Which SuperSu are you using?
The one in this post works for Quark Motorola Marshmallow. SuperSu beta 2.62. After you flash it for initial root, then you can update to newer version.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=69722490&postcount=17
INITIAL ROOT ON QUARK MOTOROLA MARSHMALLOW 6.0.1
This same version of Marshmallow was released back in July for sibling Quark Moto XT1225. We found out then newer versions of SuperSu don't work for initial root. You need this older version first. No need to re-invent the wheel. It's the same device, same software.
_______________
Go ahead and download SuperSU from the attached file at bottom of this post. It's an older version of SuperSu but works well on the Quark Motorola Marshmallow ROM. You can always update to newer version later.
BETA-SuperSU-v2.62-3-20151211162651
Attached to this bottom of this post or download from here:
https://download.chainfire.eu/751/SuperSU/
Flash this version initially. You can update to newer version later. (People had problems flashing the very newest SuperSu for initial root, but this version works good. Again, you can update to newer version later, after you gain root.)
_______
BONUS TIP - SuperSu Setting
After you reboot, go into SuperSu settings and UNcheck this box. Mount namespace separation.
Uncheck that. Disable that. Then, reboot.
If it's enabled it will conflict with Titanium Backup which you will use at some point, or should. And you will have no idea why Titanium Backup is saying you are out of space, when you are not -- but it's due to this setting in SuperSu!

No. You can just reflash your choice of boot logo to replace the unlocked warning screen. It's just a static image Motorola insists on showing you that your bootloader is unlocked. I know, I UNLOCKED it on purpose!
Here's boot logos (not to be confused with boot animation -- the boot logo is what you see before the boot animation starts) you can flash with ADB. Various colors of the Motorola M logo.

Which SuperSu are you using?
The one in this post works for Quark Motorola Marshmallow. SuperSu beta 2.62. After you flash it for initial root, then you can update to newer version.

can anyone who's taken the OTA verify that it doesn't undo an existing sunshine bootloader unlock?
I want to take it, but don't want to risk the unlock,
thanks!

Thanks!,
Of course, I delayed it a couple days, and now it doesn't show the update available anymore. Still get the "you're up to date" even though it shows a failed download in the status.
Guess it's for the best, I'll wait for a 7 rom that's stable enough to be a DD.

You can download the OTA from here and flash it.

if I do that will it wipe what I have now, or upgrade like an ota? I'm unlocked but still stock, too lazy to want to wipe and rebuild just yet.
Know of a way to reset the update service so it tries again? (I'm googling now, but figured you knew better than I did )?

From the op description, it will wipe what you have. So, yeah, wait for the OTA.
