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

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.

Hey I don't if you checked, but you can download the updates directly from the asus support page. The newest one dated may 11 should be on there. Here's the link... http://support.asus.com/Download.aspx?SLanguage=en&m=Eee+Pad+Transformer+TF101&p=20&s=16
EDIT: My bad the newest firmware is 8.2.3.9 Sorry.

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'm having the same problem. Haven't found a solution as yet.

Im gonna flash it back to stock with the .Sbf with Rsd to see if that fixes it. I will let you know. Some how my vibration keeps going of and on I think its a hardware issue because when I bump my phone it comes back on. So im doing a warranty exchange. I told the AT&T representative that my bootloader was unlocked she said it wouldn't mater lol I hope not.

I was running the previous version of Gobstopper. I flashed the new version and Firefox still wasn't working. I then flashed the deodexed app and framework and did a factory reset. Now mine seems to be working well.

the same
i have the same problem, i click on firefox and the icon jumps but don't start

What ROM are you using?

Flashing the 2.3 .sbf using Rds works but you will have to Root and kinda unlock again. Well it worked for me.

Dont think so but as long as you won't try too many things you should always have recovery to be able to restore Stock ROM.
Have a look at my thread for a couple of backups
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1680570

By, "too many things" do you mean quantity of flashes or risky development?
Sent from my SGH-T959V using xda app-developers app

As a fellow samsung owner i know what u are talking about. The answer is no. And in fact, unfortunelty in order for u to restore from most soft bricks, you have to unlock your bootloader by using an app released by asus that unlocks your bootloader and sends your serial number to them in the process which will permenantly void your warranty. Once u unlock then u can install a custom recovery and install custom roms. And even still, if u are bricked to where a custom recovery cant fix it...u are screwed. If you are not unlocked...u are screwed if the default recovery wont fix it.

uh, my heart just sank lol

Yea i feel ya. This is by far the worst measures ive seen to deter unlocking the bootloader. The original transformer tf101 had the ability to nvflash which entails putting the tab in an alternate boot mode, connect it to usb and by adb it would recover from any soft brick u could throw at it. Unfortunetly they got rid of this feature with the 300

They didn't get rid of it. It was just recently released by Nvidea. It was posted in the Portal that AndroidRoot.mobi got it working for the Transformer Prime. It requires a modified bootloader, so you can't just use it as-is. I'm sure that either they or someone equally as talented can get it going for us soon. I don't think the Prime and 300 are too different from each other.

Is it possible to fallback from Jelly Bean?

If it doesn't work out, can I fall back to ICS?
TIA

I tried reloading the .30 firmware by putting the zip in root of internal storage. It updated as a downgrade but I was still on job when it was done, so not sure if you can with a locked boot loader.

Do you think it is worth jumping in now? I don't have specific expectation on JB except it is the latest from google.

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 could learn in these forums to root, unlock and flash ROMs; giving you an open ticket to run whatever you want on ur tablet.

I want to downgrade ,too. But it is unable to downgrade with known methods.
PS. My device is unlocked.

If your bootloader is unlocked, you can flash whatever ROM you want from the custom recovery you installed.

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.

Can't add Motoblur Account Setup Failes

Hey guys I had something wrong with my phone that it wouldnt go past dual core screen. I was rooted. So I factory reset the phone because it was pretty much my only option. Since then I can not connect to the server for Motorola account. I tried running factory reset 5 times. I really want to resolve this issue I can't even put pictures straight to Facebook from my gallery because of this.
My phone is 2.3.6 stock and according to root check I am no longer rooted.
Thanks

Did you have the Cheesecake apk installed and running prior to your factory reset? If so, you may have a Motorola server that's not the default 'official' one for connecting your Moto account still set.

Haha yes I did I forgot about that! Do I just reinstall it and reset the server?

Yup. Reinstall and set server to production. Then uninstall.

Yeah, sadly a factory reset will delete any user-installed apks, including the Cheesecake application. But, if this is what you've done, there should be no reason to have the Cheesecake apk installed because you've 'reset' the phone to 'factory' and all the phone's settings are 'factory', along with the Moto server for your account - unless, of course, you want to keep checking Cheesecake for any more leaks. However, the last one found for us AT&T users has several of us soft bricked, including myself. But, there's nothing stopping you from trying to catch another leak (if any) and pass it along to the development team if you happen upon one...

OK so I'm confused my phone is factory again yet my server isn't? I never planned to do ics leak, I'm waiting for OTA which is why I wanna reset my server too. Will rerooting and then using cheesecake to reset my server fix my issue? Sorry for all the trouble I'm not using cheesecake again lol.
Oh and I just checked my installed apps and superuser is still here but root checker says no root.

I got it resolved I installed root updated my server from cheesecake and unrooted I know can check for updates and all. I hope I helped somepeople out from this post.
