I have just received my second transformer a B70 with a dock straight out of best buy and it has 3.1 installed
My older B60 also came pre installed with 3.1 but as soon as I turned that on it told me there was a fw upgrade available and i've received 2 more since and am now running 3.2
is there some trick to this ? both are US versions btw
Can nobody answer this guys ?
I ran into a similar situation. Go to Asus` website and download the firmware update manually. Extract it, place it on the top level of your micro sd card. Reboot. The update should trigger when booting up.

Great, thanks for the advice, the update didn't trigger at boot but when I got into the OS it notified me that I had an update file ready to install and from there I could enter the FW update
That's how it happened to me, it was RIGHT after it booted up. Symantecs, while booting, right after booting... either way.

Hi everyone!
2 days ago the 3.2 update dutifully popped up on my device. Clapping my hands like a chuffed schoolgirl, I started the update. All seemed to go swimmingly, but on completion and after a reboot I was told the update had failed, and my system had been reverted back to previous state.
Several factory wipes and recovery mode wipes later, and reinstallation to 8.4.4.5 and 8.4.4.11 a few times and I now no longer get ANY updates. I am on 8.4.4.11-WW edition currently which appears to be fine, but not updating. I even tried rooting then undoing the root and starting again - again no luck.
Anyone got any ideas? Other than waiting for Asus to put the new firmware file on their ftp server? Help please or suggestions. Thanks.
+1,
All is the same for me.
Same problem, send technical inquiry to asus, this is the reply:
Dear Valued Customer,
The update should automatically download. If it does not auto down load after a week you can manually install.
From your TF101 you can also try going to Apps/Settings/About Tablet/Check Update, make sure to turn on WiFi and the device can access the internet.
If you continue to experience issues in the future, please do not hesitate to contact us.
Best Regards,
Vivian

From my experience, once you download the update, it seems you are automatically flagged as having got the update. Reverting to a previous built or in your case, even if the update didnt apply, you wont get the ota again.

Exactly the same experience. Support is useless. Guess we have to wait until asus puts 3.2 on their support site.
I have the same problem my devise has i popup that appers twice a day saying...update failed. try again later.... but clicking on the update button in settings does nothing. Guess we will have to wait for the homepage release.

Me too, it seems (1 tablet with 1 version) is flagged :
I've got one OTA with 8.4.4.5 (failed), and another with 8.4.4.11 (destructed myself).
Now I'm waiting OTA..... nothing.

Hi, I have an Asus transformer TF101, I used to have it rooted with CWM on android 3.2. So now that ICS was released for this tablet i wanted it. I knew i couldn't update with CWM.. So i read a tutorial on how to install a OS update from CWM then after, install something which would get rid of CWM. This would fine and i had the first 4.0.3 installed on my transformer successfully with no CWM (I tried getting into it to test but it wouldn't). Now it's been a bit of time, I've seen that asus have released a few new updates for my tablet. Now when i seach for updates on my tablet it says none are available.. So i thought I'd try and download from the website and put onto my SD card and hope that my tablet comes up with the little explanation mark to update.. But nothing. I tryed the recovery boot with the new OS on the SD card but just had the little green robot lay down looking broken. I'm not sure what to do now.. Should i re root it and then get CWM to update or is there something up with my tablet?
Thanks for reading.
Bump?
Hi All,
Newbe with a Asus TF101 and I have to say it's been an adventure !
Originally I found a posting how to root my tablet and it worked great until an update notice appeared and locked up my system. After much panic stricken hunting around I found this site and was able to update the tablet to ICS 4.0.3 which is even better then before and runs great.
Now another update notice is appearing again......
[Q] How can I check that this update is ok to use or since I've installed a custom ROM I won't be able to use any of these updates from Asus ?
thanks,
Don't update if you have CWM or custom roms installed( root is fine in most cases). If you do want to update, return your tf to stock first.
Thanks for the reply.....
I was thinking that given my last update experience. Is there a way to turn off the update notices so I don't accidentally update ?
Stop DM Client running in the settings menu. That'll stop your notifications, at least until you reboot and then you'll have to stop it again. You might be able to freeze it using Titanium but I haven't tried it so I can't confirm it won't cause any problems.

hello tf300t users. how did you guys properly update your rooted tf300t? did you guys even update?
the reason i ask is because i rooted my friend's tf300t but was forced to install the latest firmware and during instalation this showed up and the tf300t restarted to a message that said that the update failed but when i checked the build version it went from to .17 to .26.
i don't want the same thing happen to me. i just ordered a tf300t for myslef which should arrive in a couple of days. i'm planning on using sparky root to root and i'm gonna replace the build.prop file with seanzscreams' tweaked version.
will running voodoo ota root keeper to save root status then un rooting the tf300t to install the latest firmware to using voodoo to get back root status work?
or is it best not to update and just stay on build .17. in which case how would i make the transformer quit asking me to update?
thanks in advance!

I received my Infinity this week, and am trying to do the OTA update to get Jellybean on it. I went into Settings....About Tablet....Check update. It did find an update earlier, downloaded, and attempted to install it. It deemed to be working because i got a message about Flash not working on Jellybean, but then it did the File Integrity check, and it told me it had failed. It then restored it back to the current version of ICS.
Since then I have tried to get it to reinstall, but every time time i check for updates, it tells me there is no update currently available for my device....does anyone know how to get this OTA update to install?
Thank you in advance for your help.
