I am about to return my transfomer for a new one because of a few issues I'm having (Mostly light bleed) and want to just be able to back it up completly and then just completly load it back up. I know titanium back up can be used but using it before it does not bring it back to the exact state. I want to just back this one up, get the new one, load it back and have it be exactly the same way. Everything already set up, widgets, icons, homescreens everything the same way. Is there any way to do this, or am I gonna have to do some stuff manualy?

The only way would be if your rooted, make a backup and restore it on your replacement

Using what? Is it actully a full back up?
Worth rooting it just for that?
If I root the pad do the back up and then just do a full restore in the settings would that unroot the pad?

And is there any way to do this without root? I wanna return it tonight so can someone please help me out.

No way to do without root...but with root you can just backup in cwm. This will be a full system backup. Then you get new one, root and restore.

I thought that rooting would wipe your system. Is this wrong? Just trying to learn for myself.
im trying to install pga tour (and fifa) but when ever i try it says i dont have enough space????
which is strange as i have 6.69gb free of internal storage any idea how to fix this,
and sorry if i havnt given enough info i didnt want to babble rubbish but ill give as much as i can if you need to know anything else
same thing happened to me with another game. unfortunately the only solution i found was to do a factory reset. just backup pictures and documents as it does wipe your memory and use the asus app back up to back up your apps to an sd card.

Hey mate, I've seen similar problems in the TF101 forum and wanted to let you know about a common problem / solution.
Check the /Data/Logs folder for erroneous files. (I've heard of some reaching 12GB!!!)
After you delete anything junking up space in there, use ES file explorer or Root explorer of your choice to set that folder's permissions to 'user -r'
This will make it so only you can add to it, making the problem not repeat itself.
Hope this helps/was the problem.
i cant find the logs folder mate lol

I applaud your unbridled optimism Sir.
ASUS hinted at this yesterday on FB. Their post "When Mr. Jellybean is in the office, it means something good is coming."

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")....

It looks like they are using 3.x.x kernel on JB, someone can confirm this?

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?

No, the tf300 probably just happened to be ready first. It would silly to make all of the tf300 wait a few days just because the tf700 wants it first lol

Hey ppl,
I got the update but after finished downloading an error appeared: Update failed, restoring conf to last version blah blah.
I rebooted the device but it says there's no longer an update available for my device.
My Tf300t is Rooted, i only disabled some system apps and removed the original Browser, could that be the problem?
Any ideas? Thanks!
Sent from my ASUS Transformer Pad TF300T using Tapatalk 2
if you removed any system apps it won't update. Also if you are using a modded build.prop it won't update. You need to restore the browser

It seems you're right, since I unrooted with Voodoo OTA Root Keeper, but still can't get the update.
How can I restore original apps (only Browser as far as I remember) without a factory reset?
Thanks!

I don't think you can, unless you made a backup of the stock browser using Titanium Backup or something.
That's why you should never fully delete system apps, always make a backup of them or freeze them.
On the topic of root access.. updated my TF300T to Jelly Bean... tried restoring root using Voodoo OTA Root Keeper. It says restored but I don't appear to have root access when using Lucky Patcher or any other app. Any ideas?
I have the original build prop, on the ww version, but am traveling in the US, and am not getting the ota. . Anyone have a suggestion on if/how I could make this work?

I am in the same boat as you are...thankfully I froze my apps so I have them still...but after unfreezing them I still don't get the OTA.... I heard once you download it once Asus won't push it to your device again...so manual update is the only way

You need that someone still on ics pulls the browser apk from /system/app the you will have to push it to the same directory and reboot. That should reinstall it. NOTE factory reset wont restore deleted apps.

While it is true that they log your attempts at installing updates (you can enter your MAC into their system, I don't remember where, and it shows all of your updates - I've done it) they don't truly block future attempts after a failure. All you have to do is open up settings, apps, all, and clear the data on the DMClient app (I believe, I'm trying to confirm that's what it was). Tried it after a failed .30 update and it let me download it again.

this update better be coming to WW devices. if not: sending this back for HW repairs and selling it pronto.

Replace the modified build.prop with your back-up of the original file or it definitely won't update.

Otherwise, how and when a manual installation will be available?

Did you put them into /system/app? Maybe try rebooting after putting them there?

The error says it is missing its sha1 sum, so how do I get those back?
I ended up flashing the full .30 full the Asus website which lost my root, rerooted uring Debugfs and now flashing the OTA for JB
I should mention that I did change the permissions on the files AFTER I put them back into system/app/ so that may have something to do with your issues.
I've got quite the same problem as OP... could someone (please, pretty please) pm me a link to get those files?

Become root and mount the /system partition writable. Most root-enabled file managers have an option for that (I use Ghost Commander), or you do it on the command line.
as root:
mount -o rw,remount /system
should do the trick
but deleting may be a bad idea (no OTA), it's better to do
mv CMClient.apk CMClient.apk.bak
etc.
and then move back to original filenames before updating
Guys, could you please send me the link where I can download CMClient.apk and CMClient.odex from /system/app/
I'm running with 9.4.5.30 firmware.
I wasn't smart enough to keep the backup...
Thanks!!!
Hello, I do not have access to a tablet yet. As I will be receiving this model for the holidays. I was wondering if someone could send those files for ICS .30 and JB .16. I would like to deobfuscate and decompile them. Thanks.
Sorry to hijack the thread but I've frozen DMclient and CMclient through System tuner? Will that be enough? I understand I won't get OTA updates and to enable them I just unfreeze them both, temp unroot with OTA rootkeeper and then get the OTA update yeah?
Thanks
