[Q] After JB update..no 3G/4G network - Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Dear All,
I new to android.I have done manual update from ICS to Jelly bean. It was success. But i got one main issue. Earlier my device(TF300 TL) comes with 4G/3G from telcom operator. (M1 - Singapore). After JB, tablet can not find 3G/4G network (wi-fi is working fine). When i try to set APN details...it is not saving just vanishes...So, how to make the APN setting stable.so i can get the 3G/4G network. This issue not new JB, even some earlier version has issue on APN setting.I tried few forums for APN setting.. can not solve the issue.. (I can enter APN setting as my operator suggested...but can not save...)
Any tricks ?
Please help me, with out 4G,the transformer not very useful. Hope i have not missed any info.
Many thanks,

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.

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.
Sent from my ASUS Transformer Pad TF300TG using xda premium

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?

[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.

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.

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 am running stock ICS 4.0.3, IML74K.TW_epad--9.4.4.40-20120704. This was after I received an OTA update today that was strangely named as NULL; but after that, I didn't get my 3g dropping. This was 2 hours into the update. Let's see how the thing goes, and I am keeping my fingers crossed on this.

Unable to get wifi working on CM9 stable for tf300t

So I decided to try out the Cyanogenmod 9 for my Transformer pad tf300t. Did as the instructions said using twrp 2.0 and booted up and everything. The wifi however would not work meaning it sees that wifi is available but will not connect. I tried using the latest nightly version still no success. Can someone tell me what I'm doing wrong? I went back to my nandroid version feeling a little bummed that I cant get this thing going and share in the excitement of more and better features.
Also goomanager no longer works properly as I can't get it to search for available roms.

I am not sure but when i went back to stock it is working fine. I am in JA but i purchased the tablet in the US so it is the US version. But something I noticed between the CM9 and the stock is that the stock showed the wifi version while the CM9 didn't. I was reading about that as well that a fix is to probably change the channel but how do I do that?

log on to your router/ap and there should be a wlan settings pane - and select a channel >12 and you should be ok.
otherwise i would suggest you try termleechs BAKED rom - i haven't tried it myself since my pad will arrive only next week but from what i read it rocks (and his aokp one rocked )

I will have my new TF300... advice?

Hi there (sorry for my english)
After my Nexus 7 (returning because of the screen lift and touch problem) and the return of my Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 7" (don't like this tablet) i will have in few days the Asus Transformer TF300.
I've read few post here about problem with the update to Jellybean. But does this update is official? I mean, when i turn on the tablet, does this one indicate me that a update is available and start downloading JellyBean?
I like JB (from the Nexus 7), but the problem that the tablet don't wakeup after sleep or the random reboot... What to do with that?
I don't have the keybord, i've just buy the tablet itself.
Thanks!
yes its official and it is buggy as hell, avoid upgrading and wait for a more stable one

Asus took it down very shortly after they had placed it online. No one knows why but it is assumed there was some bug/bugs in it that they didnt want to reach our tablets. Too late for a lot of us. But it's been made available by some members here. I'm sure someone will let you have the link to their copy if they read this post.

I suspect ASUS has stopped the 4.2.1 OTA update as well. I recently replaced the motherboard of my tf700 and ASUS Service Center restored my tablet back to 4.1.1. Since then, no matter how I check, there is no OTA update to 4.2. Nevertheless, this actually makes me really happy, because I pleasantly realize that 4.1 is actually much faster than 4.2, UI is a lot more responsive, stock browser is faster, no app crashing as well. Furthermore, the recent app screen is back to the left edge of the screen, the way I always want it to be. ASUS can take all the time they need to fix 4.2 (if there are indeed problems with it), I'm happy with 4.1.1.

Depending what ASUS did, your serial numbers may no longer match in ASUS servers, which could be another reason as to why you are not receiving updates OTA. If this is true, then you will not be able to unlock either.

I was thinking about this possibility as well, but here is the tricky part: When I received my tablet back from ASUS Service Center, I specifically asked them whether my tablet could receive OTA updates, because when I sent it to them, it was on 4.2 instead of 4.1. After checking for quite some time, the technician said that he had checked ASUS Server and reassured me that my firmware was the latest that they had (he said that the 4.2 update did not exist in their internal server, even though he was aware of the update). Together with the fact that ASUS removed the 4.2 firmware from their website, I suspect that the OTA update is not available as well.
Obviously all of this is just my speculation, as it could simply be the case that ASUS screwed up my serial number (it is still the same though). Since there is no update currently available except for the 4.2 update (I'm on the latest firmware for 4.1), I have no way to check if the OTA update service is working properly.
Please feel free to correct me if I'm wrong.
I just would like to know why they pulled it. Makes me nervous to install one of the ones from the links, if there is something wrong is there going back to 4.1? I know with my tf300 once you went to 4.2 there was no going back.

No it is fine, but there are issues the can sometimes break bluetooth, but it is easy to revert back to 4.1.1. I have those links posted elsewhere and people have used them with no trouble.
