New updates in April?! - Transformer TF300T General

Hello guys !
I was browsing on the internet when I saw that on the asus website at DOWNLOAD section appears as "Version JP_V10.6.1.8.4 - 2013.04.16" .
should we expect a new update? I still have couple of bugs with 4.2 like clock freezing sometimes and "turning off/on autosync" dialog remaining on the screen after enabling/disabling
please post here any feedback regarding your JB experience
Enjoy

thanks ! it's impossible for me to follow all these topics and the ones from my samsung i9000 for udates ... as we all know time is money

In some cases, they release a special version for a particular region, things that would mean nothing to other regions. I have no doubt more updates are coming though.

Motorola releasing 3.1 update to Wifi users today!!

Hello Xoomers!! Motorola announced that they are releasing Honeycomb 3.1 to Xoom Wifi owners starting today in phases. I believe the updates are based on your MAC addresses on your Xooms, this was what I was told (sources withheld) but I can not confirm this 100%. Anyway, we should start seeing a steady rollout of updates as there have been no issues with the updates with Xoom 3g owners. Please be sure to thank me
Fingers crossed!!
Forgot to mention, the official WIfi only version of 3.1 does NOT contain the Movie tab in the marketplace. No biggie to me, but it will be released sometime later.
I hope this is true bc u have no idea how happy just seeing this post made me lol.
Is ut only the US version of wifi-only that will start to get the update?
How about the European version? Will it start to roll out to us to?
Can only find info that people with the US version have got it. What about we with Eu version,

LOL..I pissed my pants while typing it I was so happy! But yes I have confirmation fro other Wifi owners who have received the update this morning EST. Also there has been official word on the update being released to wifi users. I cant wait to see the popup on my xoom. Remember though, its in phases, so please be patient people. Also, 3.1 does not fix the slowness in auto rotate because this is not a google problem, its an issue with the Xoom models which should be patched soon(again sources withheld) may have something to do with increasing the cache but again Im not 100% sure on this. Good luck!!

Got my OTA this morning on my Wi-Fi Xoom in US.
Kinda ticked off that we Wi-Fi people get snubbed out of the Movie app for no reason. Especially when I have a trip this weekend that I was looking forward to using the movie app.
i got my ota update at around 12:30am last night. did a restore to stock and then used power+volup button to reboot and then check updates.

what do you mean snubbed out of the movie app? movie editing or movie watching?
great. seems like you have a lot of info from your sources. so i will ask you this, without providing exact info (dates, time, etc.), are we close to an SD fix? Simple yes or no.

This was not done purposely, looks like their was a "bug" which caused issues with Wifi owners. But I would rather have the update now than to have to wait another few weeks just for the movie tab to be added. Enjoy your 3.1!! I'm told that the auto-rotate issue should be patched also hopefully soon!!

Hey there! yes, the SD issue is NOT Motorola's fault, contrary to what is believed..this is a issue with Honeycomb itself which Google is aware of and will fix. The other tablets that do have the SD card support are using a "work-around" but its not the official fix. From what I "hear" the issue is how Honeycomb sees the SD card, this will be officially fixed soon. I believe that the other tabs will receive an update for the SD card also, as the way it works for them is not "official"

Can anyone provide a reliable link for this? People with wifi have been getting updates randomly for the last couple of days, so I'm not sure this is news. Not that I don't trust unsubstantiated conjecture, but... actually, I don't trust unsubstantiated conjecture.

Another post eslewhere in this forum mentioned that Motorola tech support said that a "fix" (not sure if that means Xoom only temp fix or a permanent fix from Google) for the SD card was finalized and would be pushed at close to the same time as the 3.1 update.

New firmware release on Friday

Asus support have just told me that there will be a new firmware release on Friday.
The release "is expected to fix a couple of issues with 3.2 (apps related)."
I've asked if it fixes the compass calibration issue. Finger's crossed!
Let's hope it doesn't break root for the rest of us
Sent from my SPH-D700 using Tapatalk
Great news. Thanks!
Let's see if I get the OTA after removing CWM.
Regards.
Sounds great!
Wish the problems I got would also solved with this version.
TF101 bug list.
Firmware : official 3.2
Model: TF101 16GB
1. Static(photo) shifted to left by 2/3. The right side became black. No problem for live wallpapers.
2. Short cut on home screen became black. Widget content is also black. Became normal after reboot.
3. If apk calls YouTube apk. The screen became half dark but not freezed. But TF101 YouTube apk still work fine.
4. Sometimes got messed lines on screen lower part. Disappear after running other apk.

If it cures the wifi problem, opera problem, adw problem, irritable bowel problem let me know and i'll install 3.2
Awesome ...wonder when will it have Netflix support though
Just don't install, right? I'm sure a dev will incorporate the additions to their respective roms

hopefully this will cure the dimming and apparent hang when you launch and reference an object with multiple viewers. Rotating the screen back and forth is getting a bit old.
You have to love the way Asus really stays on top of things with timely releases and bug fixes. It's why I bought an Asus instead of "that other brand".

Exactly. I didn't buy the Tab 10.1 because its still stuck on 3.1.... and also our keyboard dock just flat out pwns
Hopefully they will resolve some of the browser problems. Also the issue with having to rotate the screen after every power off.

I hope this too. I think they fixed some things while making 3G version firmware and it`s time to release them for the "regular" TF users. I hope they fix the browser because I spend 90% of my TF browsing. Hope it`s smooth and fix the rendering blocks on some sites.
I just rooted mine with Prime 1.7. It seems to be a bit laggy compared to the stock rom. How can I revert back to the stock, so that I could install this update when it comes out.
I wish they could fix the b70 thing so i can root my device!!

I bet there will be only one firmware for both models, WiFi only & 3G, because even the standard TF has a phone.apk.
Let's hope this time we'll see a real update. Last Friday they put 3.2 with release date 2011/08/12 on their website, but after I downloaded it to check, if it's really newer than the OTA relese, I found file date 2011/07/30 inside.
In my opinion the current release is a catastrophy, because of too many issues/bugs. That's why I refused to install it so far.
TF101 ftw!
OTA?
Is the upgrade OTA? Or will you need to do it manually?
Agreed, with the others who welcome the update, it has come pretty quickly. Making small incremental updates is the safest way to work, well done Asus.

Nope not yet for me.
*twiddles thumbs aimlessly*
Ok, just got the update notification now downloading 1% done
I just got the notification too.
I'm in Melbourne. it's on 2% only after about half an hour. My guess is that the servers are struggling
Got my upgraded just now. Soo far so good. Just testing out the apps and features. Gmail app is crashing a bit. Keyboard lag is much better
just woke up to find a download ready. Reasonably quick, guess not many people on at this hour If it fixes keyboard lag and nothing else I will be happy.
All installed and no issues so far.
Wifi good.
Bluetooth good.
No screen flicker issues.
App drawer is smooth scrolling in either orientation.
Keyboard lag seems to have gone.
All up, very pleased.
Wots the build no. Can any one tell me pls
I still looking 4 update.zip if anyone has captured it.
many thanks
Mine is Acer_AV041_A500_1.031.00_WW_GEN1
Yup, it's downloading for me now as well.
My Build No: Acer_A500_7.014.15_COM_GEN1
Well I've been using my A500 with ICS all day now. Absolutely love it! Feels like a brand new tablet! Factory reset got rid of all the junk I had accumulated, and ICS just feels so much more polished and complete.
No issues at all apart from browser sync (but I'm using chrome beta now anyway so I don't really care)

New update already in Germany?

Hey guys, my tablet arrived today and my question is after reading some threads here before: Is the new update available in Germany? People tell here that the water unlock animation is gone wiith the new update (3rd?). After updating the tablet the animation is still active on mine.
Thanks for helpful answers
The newest version is MJ 6 in Germany. I'm running MK1(newest without effect), which l installed via Odin. l managed to get my tab to not boot anaymore and just reset it.

MJ6 is very fast already you can just wait for MK1, it basically only adds the MultiUser and I haven't really noticed a big difference in performance. I have only been running it for a few hours though.
I know it is fast. But when I read the posts about the bad performance I expected the tablet will be slow at setup but it wasn't. I thought: "If some of the users with the newest update notice the tablet becomes faster, the tablet will be very very smooth."
Also I can wait for the OTA-MK1 ^^

Lollipop should be coming soon

Lollipop is in the final stage of testing for all the tab pro series 12.2, 10.1, and 8.4
http://www.youmobile.org/blogs/entr...-2-Lollipop-Update-is-coming-by-Early-Q3-2015
I really hope this is true. I am interested to see if they "toned down" TW like they did on the S6 .
great news, thanks for this..
I hope there's an option to not update for a while to see there are any "issues" after updating....I have a Nexus 5 and I'm still on kitkat due to all the battery life issues people had when updating it to lollipop....and it's a flagship google device!!!
Hope it doesn't come with CleanMaster as a pre-installed app
As the title says, hope that lollipop doesn't arrive with the installation of CleanMaster Malware. The malware CleanMaster got installed on my ASUS memopad 176c & cannot be truly "uninstalled"; it keeps resurrecting & keep getting notification that an update is available even if I "uninstalled" it; when the notification arrives, CleanMaster shows as "installed" again.
CleanMaster is in "/system/app/CleanMaster" & cannot be deleted by an unrooted device. So, how does one change setting?
Read statements that say Samsung is/will be installing CleanMaster even if it is a malware & trojan.

Every device has had some issues with every update. Period, this is nothing new, this is never going to change. Most of the issues are fairly rare, but of course those are the loud ones. ALL, every single one of the Lollipop upgrades for my variety of devices have been either ok, no big deal, or wonderful enhancements to an already good device.

I'm as anxious as anyone about getting lollipop but I would just like the option of waiting a bit after the update until others have tested it out. The tab pro8.4 is my first Samsung device and wasn't sure if samsung automatically update you or if you have the option to wait and update at your leisure so to speak. Have you done a Samsung update and know if you have the option of updating when you're ready or no? TIA!
It will alert you that there is an update, it will not automatically update
I'm never gonna update to lollipop. It runs smooth, i get 10 days battery with 7+ hours screen time and lollipop itself is bugged as **** anyway. Why fix something that isn't broken?
Btw, my knox and everything is frozen anyway, so I doubt I will be able to update in the first place.

Interesting to see TabPro leap past Tab S to 5.1.1
It's already the faster of the two, now it's ending up with the newer OS despite being older.
Let's see if it ACTUALLY GETS 5.1.1 before cm13 comes up.
