UK 3.1 update help

ive searched loads of threads for this answer but evrything is all over the place and a bit confusing so im just looking for a simple solution, can i get the uk update at all, i updated to the us leak and would like to have the uk update now since its available but dont know how to get it, i am unrooted
thanks in advance

I think you might have to wait until its released on the uk asus page to manually flash it, I could be wrong though!

ah thats cool then mate, i will wait until i can grab it, thanks for your help

or you can
- get the uk V8.2.3.13 rom from asus support
- extract the zip, rename the extracted zip file to EP101_SDUPDATE.ZIP to root of external sd card
- then power off
- vol down+power on
- vol up to start flashing the uk V8.2.3.13 rom
now you back in blighty the notification should be available to update to 3.1 honeycomb. that's how i did it.
This maybe the only option avaialbe, because I think that official method as described on asus support will only allow update with same geography. (empahsis on 'I think')
good luck!

Nice one mate will give that a try

tried that but its just coming up the android man holding an exlamation mark

sorry, I not at home now, so don't have the names of the files from asus support site to compare for you.
I think I remember the official extracted file was had a '.zip.zip' ending. make sure to it's just .zip - use a file manager on the tablet
This is the same procedure as I used to get onto the leaked us rom onto my uk tab. Expecting we are now dowgrading to official UK 3.0 from asus support
the original and possibly clearer instruction are here: http://forum.androidcentral.com/asus-eeepad-transformer/88744-transformer-3-1-update-here.html

Its the same way I got the leaked one on too but can't seem to get it to work on for this

checkout this thread,
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1102209
where others had luck downgrading. Also Specifically post #16, the guy mentions possibly there are zips within zips... which may help you.

thanks mate, tried all that but its still giving me the same android guy with exclamation mark, will just have to keep the us opne for the time being i think

just checking, is the ww version uk or is there a uk version, i cant see a uk one so i got the ww, migth be me been a complete idiot lol

got it working, i was being stupid and renaming it to EP101_SDUPDATE.ZIP instead of just renaming the zipto EP101_SDUPDATE.
thanks for all your help, this forum rocks !

Lolz, glad u got sorted!

lol i wish i never, now i keep getting a force close error

I did the same thing - downgraded as described above from the leaked US 3.1 rom to the 3.01 WW rom from the Asus website. After that I did a factory reset to get it clean. No force closes aftdr that.
I now am back on 3.01 WW build but when I check for a system update I am told there is not one available. Do Asus stagger the updates? I have seen other posts saying they can't see an update.

Did you get notified of the 3.1 update instantly after downgrading?

no. I downgraded on monday, in anticipation of getting the update on tues/weds. I only acutally upgraded this morning when i clocked the 'tracker' thread that some uk peeps were getting theirs via manual check.
are you really back to 3.0?... check interweb settings is alright?... remove any roms on int/ext sd cards?.... did the manual check?... not sure what else to try really....

I justice twenty back to the us one will just leave it at that for now

I got a replacement TF today as the screen on the last one refused to turn on after leaving it off for a while. Completely dead even though the alarm kept going off at 5am(annoying).
Anywho I got the replacement and I have had no notifications about an update. I have just manually updated it to the .13 one and still nothing OTA.
I'm in the UK too. Hope they upload it to their severs soon so I can just do it by sd card again.

No more 3.2???

I got my transformer from amazon.de with DE 3.1 on it. After I logged into my wifi I got an update message. I chose to install and got DE 3.2 ROM.
After some playing around with different custom ROMs I wanted to undo my changes and "re-stockify" my tab. Installation of the original stock DE 3.1 ROM from ASUS' website went fine and I got my tab like it was before.
But now as I try to update to 3.2 manually via settings menu I get the message I already had the latest software version... :-(
Tried the same with ASUS' stock US and WW ROM. Always the same, no update! Frustrating!
Any suggestions??? Please!!!
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App

There is a 3.2 stock rom thread in the developer section, that might help you.

Thx but this won't solve my problem. ROM seems not to be stock or not verified by ASUS otherwise it would upgrade. Wouldn't it?
I just want a way to COMPLETELY bring my tab back to the state it was when I got it...
Any more ideas guys?
Maybe the versions from ASUS' website simply get their update later than the ones with their shipped firmware installed!?!? *confused*

When going back to stock 3.1 is your recovery back to stock also?

once you get and download the update, your serial number is flagged as having the update already. You won't get it once again. happened to me when i wanted to revert back...

[Q] Canadians Able to update to .26

Any other Canadians able to update to .26, ive been trying for 3 days checking updates and havent gotten anything at all for signs of an update available.
Anyone know if our version up here would be slightly different at all?

I'm not in Canada but have had mine for a little over 2 weeks and haven't received the update yet either.

I updated mine manually. I never got any OTA. Im from Vancouver.

the manual update doesn't let you keep root or does it?
the forums get a bit confusing on that with everyone posting slightly different things at times.

Not sure as i dont root my devices.. but im guessing it wont

As I booted for the first time the update was there. I will root when it is more solid. Besides I don't need to be rooted yet either. I hear that there will be an update soon to fix the occasional flicker prob on the left hand of the screen.

There is a. 29 US and no OTA update to. 26 WW for me in Canada.... Still at. 17. Do they do this on purpose or is it a bug?
Sent from my ASUS Transformer Pad TF300T using Tapatalk 2

No update yet, though in a way I'm glad because otherwise I probably would've updated and then been unable to root without downgrading (which sounds like quite a bit of a hassle). Since I haven't encountered any major issue with the tablet thus far I'm not too worried about not having the upgrade.
I wouldn't have rooted if it weren't for Sixaxis controller needing it, but while I was at it I took advantage of that to grab Titanium and a few more root apps and am glad I rooted in the end.

Weird.. my Canadian TF300 came with US firmware. The tab was brand new sealed in box from tigerdirect.ca.

That's because Tiger Direct ships product directly from their US warehouse. Same distribution for both countries. You are fortunate, will get .29 update with battery stats and face unlock.. Fyi: For Canadians wanting to upgrade to. 26, go to Asus support Site where you can download and manually install... Just did it

Apparently root can be saved and restored with an app called voodoo root keeper?

No, it's called Voodoo OTA Root Keeper for a reason... It only works with OTA (over-the-air) updates.

FYI to fellow Canadians not receiving OTAs, Asus has posted the .29 update on their support site today. I just installed, working perfectly. You can find it here: http://support.asus.com/Download.aspx?SLanguage=en&m=ASUS+Transformer+Pad+TF300T&p=20&s=16 Make sure you check to ensure you install the correct software version. Is confirmed in Settings/About Tablet/Build Number. Enjoy.

I am going to assume now that the bootloader unlock tool is out its easier to flash su and such onto this to root it?
am i correct on this?

I bought mine from directcanada.com and received .29 OTA no problem, straight out of the box

Update
Mine did the OTA update to .29 a couple days ago. Should be pushing to everybody now.

still nothing here, still checking every day. where did you buy yours Fraserlm

I'm not getting anything either... got mine from BB, was on US .17, returned that due to lack up updates (and not being able to unlock), got a new one from BB which is on WW .17 and still no updates/unlock
Anyone hear anything about possible fixes from asus?

Anyone here still waiting for OTA?

I am still waiting for my OTA, so confused why I still don't get it:crying:

me too. Not sure if my returned RMA got screwed.

I'm still waiting for it on a TW firmware model, haven't seen anyone else on same confirm they've got the OTA, so assuming we're stuck behind US and WW on the update schedule. I got the camera improvement OTA no problems a couple of weeks ago.

I did on 5th October.. download firmware WW firmware from Asus website and unroot my device.and install it. So far no issue. only things is APN settings CAN NOT be saved. not sure how to fix this issue?
In case, Ausus give automatic OTA to JB , not sure what i have to do to OTA JB? Please advise...

Hi,
I am from Singapore too and am using M1 too. I got Jelly Bean OTA alert last week and updated it last weekend and everything is fine..
What i am thinking is that you might have manually updated the TG ver instead of the LT ver which have caused your 3G/4G to be missing. Think you better send it to Asus repair center or revert back to ICS.
I am a root user too but i dont usually change or update my ROMs when there is no OTA for my device.

Think you have to send it back to Asus, you are installing a non 3G rom on a 3g set.... thats why you dont have the 3G option.
The key point is that you have to wait for the OTG alert then update.... dont go and download the wrong verison.....
FYI
TF300T is wifi version
TF300TG is 3G + wifi version
TF300TL is LTE (aka 4G) + wifi version

Hello Bro Flashben,
You are right.I am not aware of that little difference (TG instead of LG). . Today, return the tablet to Asus service center. They may to try to downgrade but NO guarantee for successful downgrade. It takes 5 working day..Waiting with hope.
In the same time, even with TG firmware why Mobile APN can not set..still mystery for me.. (or is it a bug in JB ??)
Many thanks, to all who replied.
-Cheers!

I believe LTE aka 4G uses different hardware or software as 3G so that's why it will affect anything that is mobile but not wifi when you update your TL pad with TG version.
Try to look for other downgrade method available at xda forum.

Hi vc, hows your asus pad?
Sent from my ASUS Transformer Pad TF300TG using xda premium

I got my Asus Transformer Pad 300 (3g and wifi) two days ago and it worked fine at home (on wifi)... ad then it updated to Jellybean by itself, and everything was fine till I tried using it on 3g in the city today, and oh the horrors... it works.. but it randomly stops working - no network, just like that. When I try to search for one, it says "Error while searching for network"... I reboot it, it works for a few minutes and off it goes again, but if the wifi is enabled, the network vanishes as soon as I turn the pad on...
Is that a Jellybean problem? I am going to try and replace it tomorrow, and I hope I can stop the update to JB...

Its jb issue.... you need to trigger ur 3g ( off and on again) then its ok.. but there is another update for the kernels then it seems better.

I went to my operator and exchanged the pad for a new one... and when that one wanted to update to Jellybean, I said no and it works now.
But... is there sa safe way to go to Jellybean? Without having to root the pad?
