If it's green, try updating the firmware. This was fixed by Asus.

Thanks for the quick reply. However, when I go to update manually it says up to date even though I know its not. Any ideas? Thanks again friend.

I have version 8.2.3.9. And haha too bad the twins are awful. How can I force the update? THX
Sent from my Transformer TF101 using XDA Premium App

I'm betting the servers are down or something. I just check a 8.2.3.9 tablet and it refuses to update, telling me that there are none available. I'd give it a day or so.
You might be able to manually flash it if you find the update .zip (looked quick and I couldn't), then boot into recovery and try flashing it, but I haven't poked around the TF's recovery yet so not sure if you can manually flash on stock recovery.

This link still shows 8.2.3.9.
I got my Amazon order of 16G today too, with 8.2.3.9, check for update, none.

Sorry to hijack your thread, does anyone what could cause this and how I could fix it? The main camera shows lines, the smaller camera works ok. I updated to latest software with the built in update check and no change. Is there anything else I can try? That built in update is same as rom update? Or rom updates other things too?
I posted a separate topic for this

i remember i read somewhere it says android doesn't support usb 3g,
but maybe their tablet wasn't rooted
Thank you guys!
I've read that it has something to do with drivers, it it right?
Just wondering, is it possible to "mix" settings from the 300TG Rom to the 300T Rom?
Like adding the 3G part of the Wireless & Networks menu from the TG to the 300T...does it make any sense, or am i way off?!

I just installed PPP Widget on my TF300T running stock JB. It's a little unstable but works with my Huawei 1752 modem.
You have to be rooted to use it.
Also it isn't listed as an app, only as a widget. At first I thought it didn't install properly because I couldn't find it in the apps list.

I've learned from the TF101 ICS update - be careful what you wish for!!! For those that don't know, my (and others) TF101 has basically become very un-reliable since they introduced ICS.
While I truly *hope* we don't have such issues with the Jelly Bean upgrade, I certainly don't have a lot of confidence in Asus at this point.
I just hope that they don't rush it and test it properly before releasing it and forcing the upgrade on us (which is exactly what they did with the ICS update on the TF101).
I do know that my TF700 has some of the same ICS issues that the TF101 had (OpenGL out of memory errors, for example, which causes your launcher to go "blank")....

Great! Very exciting news to wake up to!
When Firmware actually starts dropping DON'T FORGET TO!!
*Side load your FLASH PLAYER. If you want flash. It will no longer show up in the Playstore any longer
*Revert back whatever modding/altering to system files just in case Rooters. Only if you want your OTAS to actually complete. Or if running a custom rom it wouldn't work anyways as you already know.
*Don't forget to backup your Root with Voodoo Ota Rootkeeper! You will definitely lose root if you don't
Time to obsessively check every 5 minutes for the update!!!

*sighs* I want all my devices to run Jellybean today, here is to hoping it will happen.
As I'd normally recommend rooting myself, I don't think it's necessary in this case. Why not just install .apk with Flash after allowing unknown sources? I believe it should suffice, although I don't know if it's any different with the JB system of permissions.
No need to root to install Flash on Jelly Bean. At least not on the Nexus 7.

I can confirm - my father just bought a Nexus 7 - I emailed the Flash app to him and he was able to install it and it worked without any rooting or anything.
He used Boat Browser (per my recommendation) - not sure about other browsers, but I assume it work with all expect for Chrome, of course...

To everyone who wants flash, the easy way is to place the apk somewhere on Dropbox/Google Drive/Physical medium and install it from there, also since this week Adobe Flash Player is not available in the Play Store. http://www.pcworld.com/article/260901/android_flash_player_rip_how_to_get_it_now_that_its_gone.html

Everyone remember to backup the files created by titanium backup themselves to a removable SD card or your PC.
As for JB, I am not sure we can expect it for the TF700 right away ... the TF300 is so similar to the nexus 7, I'm sure they only slightly modified their nexus 7 kernel.
Is it just me or does anyone else thinks it's wrong that Asus updated their cheap tablet before their flagship?

Just depends on your taste. You might review other upgrade post stories first to be sure. Some are flawless, some not.

THelook and feel of JB is for the most part similiar to ICS.
Their are some differences you will notice:
Animations: Some new and smooth animations that are nice. Animationa arre a minor thing but add a nice touch.
Project butter: My tablet does seem to run smoother and I have yet to have a wait/close prompt pop up. Of course I may get some, but so far it seem to have improved in that dept.
Google Now & search: This is what I wanted most. I really like the voice search, it really fast with returning answers. I wish I did a few more thens like open apps and tell me my next apointment when asked, bt I'm sure that will come with future updates. Google Now is prety neat and I'm interesting in seeing how it starts to work once I have had it a while and it can develop some patterns and give me info based off what it believes is relavent for me.
This is just an initial impression is I just updated last night and haven't really got much day to day expierance with JB, but so far so good. So far I don't really see the down side. You gain a few things and don't really lose much. Unless you have a particular app that dosen't play well wih JB yet.
Can't wait to get jellybean but I'll wait patiently for it

You can flash anything, doesn't mean you'll be successful. The current recoveries can't support this due to different boot and kernel mods. The guys are currently trying get a fix for those on OTA JB and all. I would say sit tight and wait for conformation that Twrp or cmw can backup and restore boot from diff firmwares. I tried this and got stuck at Asus logo and couldn't boot into os. But was able to get official JB back up. So now I'm stuck on JB for now.

Updated ROM to version .30 with firmware update for the camera. The bootanimation is simpler, doesn't have the second animated and discoloured phase of the Asus logo.
IIRC when the update arrived to my XOOM for Jellybean there was small update, the bootloader I think, before the big one dropped. Here's hoping JB drops soon!
Yeah, not Jelly Bean
Well that was a big let down. Thought it would be Jelly.

You should search for the update in "cache" folder in sdcard root,but you will not find it if you already applied the update so you have to download the OTA but not apply it.Usually the file is called "dlpkg" or "dlpkgfile"...so look for /cache/dlpkg.

Yeah, mine worked eventually. What I ended up having to do was pull the original build.prop out of the last updates blob, since just removing what I added wasn't enough. If you didn't make a backup of it, you'll likely have to do the same, or I could upload the stock file
