To those that were having issues receiving OTAs - Asus Transformer TF700

Are there any users out there having issues receiving OTA updates and unlocking their TF700? There was an issue a while back where some could not receive the .26 OTA. The issue has since been resolved, but I was wondering if there is anyone who cannot receive OTAs still. Please e-mail [email protected] if you are still experiencing problems with that and unlocking your device.
If your TF700 was able to update to .26 fine, but has not received the .30 yet, please be patient as it will eventually get to you.

any ideas when WW will get .30?

I have not recieved it, but my serial starts with us.

Ota got stuck at 99% downloaded, I 'turned it off and back on again' And it completed the download and installed correctly
Cant wait for the jellybean patch
Also, infinity should have been the first with jb but really google needs a system in place to let them update the core os and enable asus to patch it quickly with their customizations. You dont need to wait for dell to release windows patches for example

I never got the OTA for .26. I have to manually apply the downloaded file from Asus service site to get from .22 to .26. I have gotten the OTA update for .30. It installed with out any issues during the install nor have I had any issues after the install. I also went to the Asus service site and downloaded the .30 US file to keep along with the .22 and .26 update files. I find it a little unsettling that Asus has pulled the .30 update especially since I have no issues with that specific installation. Perhaps it means that Jelly Bean release is just around the corner.

Would it be possible to provide us with information about the situation of the .30 WW release? Should we get it via OTA or is it just not yet available?
Without this information we cannot tell the difference between a non working OTA (like before) or that it is just not available (yet). The publishing of the 4 .30 non WW releases (however briefly it might have been), only added to the confusion.
I am glad ASUS provides the updates, but I am a little disappointed about the information of how, when, where and what.

The US and the WW usually start rolling out at the same time, so I would be on the lookout for it now.

I have been since I saw post mention the US .30 OTA. Is there any specific information you require when emailing you?
I had to do a manual update for WW from .22 to .26, and assuming WW .30 OTA is available it is not working.

I would give it a few more days. Restart your tablet and keep pinging the server until it comes through.

There is not even one single report of getting WW version, so I doubt it is there.
If they are pushing out together, they certainly didn't this time.
WW is just not there.

WW got updated to my tablet just now. As OTA. Keep checking
Finland here.

WW OTA now available!

Good to hear. Does it look OK, any problems?
I'll be checking it even more frequently now.

No problems so far. Nothing new or anything nice either. Same old laggy infinity
But this was lucky as I should receive SD-card today from Amazon.
Maaybe just a teenyweeny snappier. Nowhere close to Jelly bean on SGS3 but maybe a bit better now. Or then just placebo

Yeaaaah. Installing....
If it doesn't break anything, brick etc... still better than no update at all

it failed for me....got red triangle on android open belly

All good here, already at Android Upgrading stage, so i think i passed, huh.

[Q] How can I force an OTA update?

Just got a replacement device and accidentally cancelled the update. Now when I check it says im up to date
Did you already try settings, about tablet, system update?
you can force it by heading over to the dev section, rooting your transformer and flashing prime v1.1 so you don't brick your device.
Asus pulled the update due to devices getting bricked.
DONT update.
Some are getting bricked and there is a forum post waiting for further recommendations.

This. I'm not sure if there has been any confirmation, but i'm pretty sure myself and a couple of others finally got them to pull the update.
You're all great warning me off updating
But is there an actual answer to my question?

The answer is exactly what A Naked Emo said, but the firmware has been pulled from the update server, so until they put out a fix you will have to wait, and technically you have the latest version available at this time.

How to know if i got a defective item?

Just got mine it looks nice but i want to know what issues can i check to know did i get a defective item or not?
Also this might be a dumb question but it's running .26 firmware, and asking me to update. Should i update and how can i root after the update (i think it will update to .30)
Thanks
After updating to .30 I managed to root it by following these instructions: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1689193

With most of us not receiving .26 OTA, What are the chances that JB is the same way?

Those of us who had to manually update our Infinity to the latest .26 firmware because the OTA never came through.
What if ASUS releases Jelly Bean (JB) to the Transformer Infinity tablets and no one can see it because it will never show there's an update available.
Expect nothing...hope for something...
I wouldn't hold your breath, I'm certainly not holding mine.
who cares? whats so hard in manually updating? OTA updates are a feature, not the only road to go on.
If you need OTA rootkeeper then yes, it may be a factor.

You obviously don't care. ASUS posting the .26 update on their website was also a feature. Had they not done that many of us would still be on the base firmware.
So if ASUS doesn't post the update on their website this time and announce the JB release to the Infinity via OTA, but only 15% reportedly get the OTA. Would you still not care?
I don't know about you but I haven't seen any OTA update of any kind of on my Infinity since I got it, unlike when I had my Transformer Prime where there were updates coming every 2 weeks.
This should concern anyone who had to manually update their Infinity.

It's all good. This site will be abuzz like a kicked hornets best when it hits. Even IF Asus doesn't post the download, which is HIGHLY unlikely, someone on here will copy it and post for the others.. we're one big, friendly, helpful group here.
I'm fairly sure the OTA issue was fixed a while ago.

AKAIK Asus fixed the unlock/no OTA updates issue (yes these issues were related) so imo most users got the .26 OTA already. Also don't worry too much, i'm sure the JB update will be uploaded on Asus site a few days after the OTA update.

i got an OTA update this morning

Hi. A firmware update came through this morning. I'm already at .26. Could this be JB? I haven't installed it yet cause someone mentioned after install you can't copy file for sharing. Can someone tell me how? If this is it, i want to post.
Nope not JB... Its .30 of ICS mainly to fix the 64gb class 10 to be recognized by the tablet... and maybe a few others.... but not JB. Plus there is a thread all about this update.

of course it does. Use rootkeeper then install the OTA. It's unknown if the debugfs still works, thus rootkeeper

Dont have to temp unroot. I downloaded the .30 file, unzipped it, moved to internal SD
then booted into TWRP, as I am unlocked and rooted, installed file.
Rebooted, ran rootdebugFS and done!:good:

Nothing for WW yet and ASUS have recently pulled all the other .30 updates from their website.

ive been checkin every 2 hours and theyve been up there since when they were posted, unless they were pulled during the night
LOL well its not like all of us had the same hallucination, unless we all drank the same Koolaide at 3AM or something, they were definitely down, there are numerous posts about them being down in a couple of the threads and people hypothesising why they were down.
Good to see they are back up but still no WW version

Not yet, the WW release was never available, the other 4 were, but only for a short while.
I, too, am still waiting for the WW OTA. I wish Asus would inform us better.

Because most have been looking here.
Clearly the support sites have not mirrored/synched correctly yet. There's more than one ip in the dns entry. I had noticed that already yesterday, when page refreshes would show the one with or the one without the updates.
Weird. When I use that link it shows the 4 new files. But when I select OS to "Other" and back to "Android" it refreshes and the 4 files go missing.
edit: beh, i should've refreshed and saw xcal321's post

Anyone else got Firmware Update 10.4.4.23?

Busy with nothing I simply pressed the button to check firmware update for my TF700T. Then a notif came up telling me to install an update. After a temporary unroot I did what it said, and now I'm running Firmware 10.4.4.23-20121127, mine is WW. Root restored without any issue after rebooting.
Can't really see any changes (yet), probably have to dig deeper.

I did an Antutu benchmark, before update I was getting about 13300 or so, now I am getting 14400. I also think they have unlocked 1700 mghz for all cores except power saving obviously.
Got the update too, nothing too obvious seems to have changed.....
And I forgot to backup the dlpkgfile, sorry @geri.st

For me this is the greatest update so far. Tablet is much faster and did not find any bugs yet. Prevented me from unlocking for some more time.

You haven't seen the performance of Cleanrom and Clemsyn kernel yet. I ran the .23 version and it's no where near the performance of the Cleanrom/clemsyn combo. I went back to stock just to see the .23 perfornace, but after one day, I'm back on Cleanrom/Clemsyn kernel.

From what I've read I truly believe in you. The problem is that I didn't use NVFlash when possible (had already updated the bootloader) and I don't want to risk unlocking and flashing ROM's for now. The tablet is not sold in my country and if I brick it I wouldn't be able to repair nor to buy a new one.
I am not a newbie on flashing ROM's in general because I still own a HD2 but I do know there are risks on the process.
Thus, I will probably wait for the 4.2 update to decide between unlocking it or not.

I hear you, you do have a point!
I agree that this update really improved the speed of my tab. Might not be clean rom fast, but it's still warrantied fast
It's a bit faster now. At this rate we'll be fully happy with the speed around April. For me it does what I want it to just fine So what if I have to wait 1 second instead of 0.5 second for an app to open? And the very, very rare (no, I don't get them a lot. once a day, at most.) ANR messages are a whole lot less irritating than the constant "Are you sure" UAC rubbish I deal with daily on W7. (technologically impaired clients. Ugh.)

I, too, am not risking unlocking. While it is for sale here quite regularly and the EU covers warranty concerns, I bought it from a store that's not known for its great customer service (Media Markt, for you dutchies&germans.) and I didn't get a chance to use NVFlash. (By the time I heard about the idea, the first update had already auto installed. ) I'm also generally rather unlucky when it comes to electronics, stuff tends to break. And I need the tablet for work, so I can't afford to have it send out for repair for weeks if I mess up.
@ShadowLea
I have exactly the same problem as you, but Media Markt isn't good for repair?
Must I unfreeze all system apps before the update?

Yes, you must unfreez all system. Any modification to properties (build.props) file also needs to roll back. The device must be in the "stock" condition or update will failed.
