Can someone post the JB OTA for users that have an unlocked bootloader? - Asus Transformer TF700

Or suggest how else can I get JB for my unlocked TF700?

You have to be rooted to use that solution. I don't want to root at this time.
I think I'm a little naive in this situation. I assumed that someone would post the OTA file for users to download. Or will Asus post the JB OTA on their website?

Err, I'd thought if your unlocked you would be rooted also. Anyway you'll probably have to wait until ASUS post this at their website.

You are unlocked but refuse to root? Interesting.
Regardless you can root and use the method posted. Once JB installs you can continue to live root-free and be happy.
oh and the ota file is posted all over the forum. you just can't flash it if you are unlocked.
--edit-- looking at the instructions I don't think you really have to root in order to flash. you will need cwm though.

Actually, you don't have to be rooted. If you're still on the stock rom, all you have to do is flash the provided zip from a custom recovery.

sure you can, but in that case the easiest method needs root access, as you have to copy things into /cache.

how did you end up upgrading then? did you just go with the full firmware?
the zip files pretoriano linked contain the same blobs / patch files as those in the OTA dlpkgfile. if any part of /system fails to look exactly like what the updater expects, it will fail.
when i do an upgrade i take a backup, wipe everything, install the latest full stock firmware, and then apply the update. that way i don't have to waste time hunting down missing apks or other original files.
i only used pretroriano's zips this time around because flashing a zip is way easier than reverting to stock recovery, copying the ota file into /cache, creating the /cache/command file and then rebooting to stock recovery to watch it do its thing. plus he hadn't provided them for the previous updates at the time i did those.

yeah that's exactly the same method i used with no luck.
for .30 i just used the full update file from asus. i had just about given up and should have since nvflash came out a week later.
really just wanted the hardware updates at the time.

yeah i hear ya. wankers, sneakin in a signature check on us like that!

[UPDATE] Rooted US Transformers 9.2.1.11(US) to 9.2.1.17(US)

Typical stuff, I take no responsibility for anything that happens to your device. That being said much love to Roach2010 and KTWombley for their work which led to my insignificant contribution.
Long story short this update is for the US version of Asus Transformer TF101. This upgrade applies to those who are running stock firmware that is rooted.
If you removed any stock applications or did anything to your stock installation this will fail.
I tested this update on my own tablet and my daughters who happens to have the keyboard dock and all was good. US only but if anyone wants to forward me other packages I would be happy to add them.
Try at your own risk.

Can someone please post a step by step for running this update? been a while since I rooted and want ICS
thanks in advance... I rooted but left things unmodified
do I just flash the update like any other rom?
Yeah you can flash over.
I installed OTA Rootkeeper and made a backup of my root, then I flashed the zip like anything else. After I the update was finished, I went back into OTA Rootkeeper and noticed that I no longer had root so I used the app to restore my root and voila, all updated and rooted.
I flashed this via CWM and it all went well.
How do I remove the message in my notifications? Also, OTA (even with root keeper) doesn't seem to work with CWM installed.
Is there a ww version of this update?
Hi,
kookooktchoo, thanks for the info about OTA root-keeper!!! Unfortunately I didn't read the rest of your post, I too flashed this update and lost root. lucky I had installed and backed up my root using it.
thanks a lot !!!

Go into your apps in settings, find DMClient, then clear the data and cache, then you will get no more notifications about updates.

Works perfect.. I did not lose root either..
Anyone know a way to get this to not check a current app? I only changed the SystemUI and cant find my backup of the original. It hangs on that. I tried the rooted+stock full version of the first ICS release but it apparently didnt blow away my ASOP SystemUI because its still failing.
No reboots or hangs so far. Good stuff.
Update the new firmware using the normal route. Still rooted after the update. No problem at all.
Worked great for me. Thanks!
The OTA kept failing on me so I tried this and it worked great.
For an 8MB update it took a little longer than I expected to flash (+5 mins).
Apparently this doesn't fix USB mounting of internal and removable storage on PC though. I was hoping it would. Guess I'll search out the separate fix. I know I saw it around here some where.

[Q] Rooted Jelly Bean. Need Advice

So somehow my tablet updated. Now I'm on Jelly Bean but it appears to still have root still and lucky for me I backed up root in case it isn't. My question is should I try to get back to ICS or should I just unlock and get a ROM? What I really want is a functionly tablet but unlock the bootloader is last option. So what should be my next course of action be?
EDIT: wait can Jellybean even unlock the bootloader?

As discussed many times over the last few weeks, the OTA update of JB unroots your tablet. It might still look like you have root, but you don't, no matter if you backed it up or not. Currently the only way to get root back is to unlock the bootloader and follow the JB rooting guide. I completely skipped the rooting step, and went straight to installing a custom rom right after flashing the twrp recovery. Also, there is pretty much no way to go back to ICS, so I wouldn't even bother trying.

Could you elaborate on how there appears to be root and tablet isn't actually rooted?
I ask because I updated to JB through the debugfs method after a failed OTA update, together with the SuperSU+OTA Rootkeeper method. I don't see any signs of not being rooted since I can successfully run Titanium Backup, SwitchMe, etc.

I did retain root with OTA rootkeeper (only when used with SuperSU) after update, and I'm not unlocked.
But I'd also like to hear what j21blackjack has to say about this, so you may want to hold on to your horses for a bit.

20y stock recovery or flashable zip for 5.0.2?

Does anyone has the stock recovery for the 20y firmware they post (should have backed it up) or a flashable zip via TWRP for the latest 5.0.2 OTA?
I do not necessarily want to to a restore to stock (painful procedure) just to get the stock recovery to flash the OTA. If someone has made a flashable zip for the OTA update that works via TWRP that would be best. :good:
No one has a backup of the 20y recovery? Or will a 20c recovery work with a mostly stock 20y ROM with root and autorec? Just do not want a bricked device.
Any chances we will get a simple twrp flashable zip file for the update soon?
I followed the directions here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2663369&page=30#post60156407 to go to 20c. I then immediately installed towel root and let it rain. I immediately then checked for an OTA update and there was one, so I let it download and install; that was 20y. Once it rebooted I immediately checked for updates again and now it is currently downloading what I imagine to be 30f (lollipop).
Update: Indeed it was 30f (LP). I am going to let it stabilize and then do a factory reset just for kicks.
For anyone watching, I lost root this way.
Oh, well.
Thanks vween, will give this a shot when I find some time.
Just curious on why the need to towel root just to get the OTA ? Or is that strictly optional?

You have to force do the OTA.
(1) You are on 20c now, so go ahead and update forcefully to 20y. Download this:http://d-h.st/VJzP and then use the "dlpkgfile" inside the said archive. How to force OTA is mentioned in this topic:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/att-g2/general/update-to-stock-lolipop-d80030f-root-t3084081
Once you are upgraded to 20y then go ahead and follow the Lollipop OTA link in above mentioned topic, updating to Lollipop.

LG G4 Marshmellow Update

Hey everyone,
So I found online that the AT&T update to Marshmellow started on 2-8-16. I haven't been able to find anything officially from AT&T but apperently the version is H81020n and its 971 MB. Has anyone gotten the update yet?
Just saw this thread and figured I'd check. Went into the update center and notification popped up for new 950mb update. Must be it cause I was already on 10o. Didn't even have to use LG Bridge like the other carrier guys were doing.
Will post back with an update once completed

Debloater does not need root as long as you are running KitKat or newer :good:. Without root it just freezes/disables the apps instead of completely removing them.

not possible. you can't modify the system files and boot without a modified kernel. We don't have an unlocked bootloader, so no kernels, thus no root.
if you root MM your phone will just loop without the custom kernel.

so the file it downloaded isn't a zip... it's just 'dlpkgfile'

That's the missing piece I needed to understand. Thanks! Sucks, but thanks! :highfive:
got it! looks good to me - so far...
I upgraded early yesterday morning and my phone has been hot almost all the time!! The battery life is way worse than prior to the upgrade. I have cleaned out all my junk files and cache rebooted and recharged a few times. Also optimized my apps a few times. I just picked up my phone after 2 hours of no use and it was warm and the battery is draining at a faster rate than with Lollipop... Anybody else experiencing this?
Awesome, glad the update is out....I haven't done the update just yet...waiting to see if we hear anything about root. I'm wondering if we are still able to downgrade via TOT method if need be...if that's the case then i'll update ASAP. I actually have heard that there are some battery issues with the update, but again I'm not on 6.0 yet so I can't tell you from my experience.

So their is no root ?
Also can I just unistall SuperSU and update or do I need to wait tell I'm home and flash a clean image

No root.
I've never managed to update w/o flashing the unrooted version of whatever rooted version I'm running. If there's an easier way, I'm not aware of it.

Okay, so you haven't updated yet, thank god. I literally wiped out my phone and missed the signup. I'd probably pay for you it.

I actually have updated. The update is rather quite nice and super snappy. You can now also send .gifs through stock messenger. I signed up on the wife's phone for the beta as well that's where/how I will grab the .bin

Pfft most likely not and what's point?? You do realise it's a beta build right?? There's most likely gonna be lil issues here and there. Look how long it took just to get root on 7.0 and you think there's gonna be root on a beta?? C'mon man

Probably didn't, maybe next device hehe. Have to change their process again, possibly; however the command we exploited to escalate our adb commands can't necessarily be blocked/disabled as it is required. They may however drop the privileges that the command has, and take our leverage point away.

I tried to pull it but the issue is the update.bin file is in /data/fota which cannot be accessed and I tried to root to grab it but current root method deletes everything and there is nothing I could do about it. I also tried to get update when I was on Sampwnd firmware but Software Update threw error saying I had modified system.

I have already grabbed the bin but its completely useless for now because It can't be flashed at all. signature verification failed and missing footer. fota app on phone does something to bin file to convert it to flashable bin file but I still could not figure it out. But I wonder if anything on .bin file could be helpful for root
EDIT: I grabbed .bin file for S8 though not S8+ and I grabbed it directly from FOTA server.
I've updated to Oreo, however I can flash TWRP through Odin, but going in recovery only shows stock recovery. Haven't tried to flash CF-AutoRoot with Odin.
