Hi,

I would like to flash last version from Modaco, Hr7, but it is based on UK firmware.

Dear friends,
I just rooted and installed the cw recovery in my newly bought ASUS TF. The current version is 8.4.4.11, 3.1. Then how can I update my machine to V8.6.5.9, 3.2 without wipe?
Thank you very much!
Depending on which rooting method you used, if you read the root thread, it will advise you to update to the latest firmware for your model before rooting. You won't be able to update to the latest firmware after rooting and installing cwm recovery because the update will fail. You will need to return back to full unrooted stock with no cwm recovery, then update to the latest firmware, then reroot. PM me for instructions on how to return to stock.

I have seen this a few times, you do not have to return to stock to update your firmware. A couple of nice people have made the update compatible with CWM and you just have to put the zip on your SD card and install it from CWM. Here's the links to go to .9 and .13 Cheers.

After looking at what firmware you are at, I'm not sure if there are zip updates that go back that far, but you can certainly search to see...Cheers.

But mine is 8.4.4.11, 3.1 rather than 8.6.5.9, 3.2....
Install a new custom rom
My transformer is not updating over the air. My friend rooted my device and put on CWM but now I am trying to restore it to official firmware. I followed a guide and unrooted my device and installed the official recovery. My build number now is HRI66.US_epad-8.2.3.13-20110511 and firmware is only 3.0.1. When I select system update it tells me there are no updates available for my device. So I am going to manually updated it by downloading the firmware from the ASUS website. I was wondering though if in Canada do we use the US firmware or the WW firmware? Which one do I download?

not sure what to tell ya bud i didn't root and my tf101 is running 3.2.1 asus is pretty good about doing ww updates but you might have to call up asus to confirm which update to download and btw i am in canada as well and the updates were all ota
I too am in Canada and was wondering if the TF101's originally came with US or WW firmwares?
I want to flash back to stock before upgrade to ICS.

Hey I'm thinking of flashing http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1369977 onto my I9100g, but before I try, I've got a question.
Does the firmware I'm on affect whether it's compatible or not? If it does affect it do I just update through Kies?
Thanks

Its compatible with kj2 and ki1.... new kernel has been released - v2.2..
Mine firmware is xwkj2... and its fully compatible
Use superatmos v2.1 bcoz newly released version 2.2 offers no vibration mode and CWM manager doesnt get installed well.
However it offers u cwm recovery version 5.0.2.7 which works well. i shifted back to superatmos v 2.1
i've flashed v.2.2 for KK1 firmware but after flashing i've got yellow triangle. now how can i remove the triangle without using jig as i think i could not find here in my place.
my aim is to root and have cwm to be able to flash version 3 of superrom.
I see that Asus has an update for the ICS that they released and I was wondering if I already downloaded and installed the rooted one for cwm can I download the update from Asus website and apply to that ROM. Also if so will I lose root. Just curious because it is supposed to fix a lot of the bugs with ICS. Thanks.
The ICS that's out now is just stock ICS with root. It is still stock so should be updatable.
Download it and try it.
What's their method for flashing? And update.zip? I'm unaware of an official flash tool.
...and yes, you will lose root with any official rom. Best bet is to wait until its pre rooted and available to flash with CWM.

I just seen that on the Asus website that they have an update in the firmware that was posted today. I've never downloaded anything from there so I don't know if it's a flashable zip or if once you download it it starts installing itself. Hopefully someone post that update with the stock ICS ROM I downloaded from here because I tried a couple other ROMs and with them all in beta still I don't want to use them yet because of the bugs and I use my tablet all day so don't like having problems with it. I was running revolver before update and loved it, so I guess I'll wait for his new one to be done.
Just looked at the download file it is us_epaduser9_2_1_11updatelauncher.zip so I don't think it will even install with the stock rooted ROM because of sku differences.
Hi all,
I have installed various experimental ROMs but found my tablet 'crippled' in many respects. I guess they are still early in their development.
I would like to flash .29 official ROM again and tweak that to my own liking but that will lose root. Since I unlocked the bootloader so I cannot do OTA after downgrade root.
Could anyone help? Preferably give me a fresh copy of WW .29 rooted TWRP recovery backup?
Or does anyone know of a modded .29 Tom out there?
Cheers guys
Just flash the normal ROM, then flash the root zip in the second post of the CWM thread.
I managed to flash stock .29 rom, now I cannot use the wolf's method to downgrade as before, CWM cannot be accessed as before. back to square one.
Try reflashing CWM or TWRP, then flash the root zip. You really shouldn't have to downgrade for anything with an unlocked bootloader.
It seems that the bootloader is just broken. When opened an android lies flat with a body flap open with red lights on.
