Can i just flash the extracted zip of WW .30 OTA update in TWRP with stock rom?
I am stuck at the dlpkgfile update process... currently on WW .26 and have no idea to use .26 or .30 dlpkgfile...

I'm searching for a link for 8.6.5.19 WW firmware update, cause I got a new Transformer, and I want to update it, but not to the new firmware where I cannot perform ROOT.
Thanks.
Can someone tell me what's the difference between the OTA Update to JB vs. flashing the .zip from the firmware dowload section on the Asus site? The OTA update is a patch I assume, and the .zip is a full ROM image?
Is there an advantage to using one over the other?
Thanks
I'm also curious as to how this is. I downloaded the JB update zip from asus website. Like before I unzipped it and placed in /sdcard . I was notified of an update, I clicked it and it rebooted into my custom recovery instead of flashing it like it did from .26 to .30 . Did I flash CWM (NONTOUCH JB compatible version) just a little to early?
Hello, i had my tf700 with .16 rooted, but still lose the root using rootkeeper while updating to.18.
So, I follow the topic on tf700 general to downgrade to ics
Now i am rooted with ics but cannot receive ota update
I tried download the .16 framework from asus and root like what i did first time to update from ics to jelly bean
Firstly, protect root using rootkeeper
2. Copy and fix permission to /cache and /cache/recovery
3. Temp. Unroot
4.insert sd card and system update detected
5. Click on .16 update
6. Wait for updating
7. Open rootkeeper but the backup had lost
Can anyone help me to root get a root in jb?
I was lose root from .16 to .18 and now lose root in .30ics to .16jb update

The app too keep root is called "OTA root keeper" for a reason - it cannot work if you install a complete firmware from the Asus download via SD card. You need to do the upgrades using the OTA "dlpkgfile" files that you could have saved from your /cache partition before each upgrade. Since you didn't do that, you can download these files (for US or WW SKUs) from somewhere in this forum. There is also a guide how to install the OTA update manually.
Note that OTA are incremental, so to go from ICS to JB.18, you must first apply the OTA to JB.16, then to second OTA to .18.

Enjoy.
Guide is for going from .30 to .16 without OTA and without unlocking while still keeping root. The same process will work from .16 to .18.
I have the us version tf300t 16gb model. I am on .18 firmware. My tablet is unlocked bootloader and rooted. I believe the latest update is .20. How would I go about flashing this and retaining root? and where can I download the update should I just do a ota?
First time boot of my new TF300T brought a prompt to update the firmware. Is 10.4.2.20 what you are inquiring about because that's what I have after the OTA?

Install a recovery as TWRP via fastboot and backup your current rom
Download Apk OTA Rootkeeper from Play Store (Free app)
Backup your root
Use the OTA for update
And restore your root by the OTA Rootkeeper.
In case if it doesn't work, you have a safety way by this guide : Root Asus Firmware 10.4.2.20 , insecure kernel ... US/WW
What will happen if I flash US firmware on WW firmware?
Right now I can't update WW firmware I can only flash it via fastboot.
What will happen if I flash US firmware?
Thanks.
