Is there a way to downgrade from .13 to 8.2.3.9 to get root? if so can you guys direct me where to get the files and how to run the downgrade?
Thanks in advance.
I found the update, but don't know how to run the update from the SD card. I tried rebooting and holding down the volume down key, but that does't appear to be reading from the SD card.
Do I have to name the update a certain name? Is there a key combination I need to press to restore it from SD? The update said look in the manual, but I don't see anything in there.
Sorry for the multiple replies. After it booted up I had a notification saying it found the update file and if I would like to run it. I answered yes.

Extract the 8.2.3.9 zip file to the root of the microsd card on the pc. This should create a folder called ASUS with the update in there. Then insert it while the tablet is running. Then you will see an exclamation notification on the bottom right or the task bar. Tap that and follow the instructions.
Bump! I am looking for the 8.2.3.9 file also! I cannot seem to find it anywhere. That or has any new methods been released to root .13 yet? Just got my transformer and I am anxious to achieve root!
I got my new ASUS transformer on monday. So far i have been impressed
BUT
There is a laundry list of problems that I haven't seen anywhere.
1) I keep getting frequent android.process.acore force close (This is reoccuring and really annoying)
2) The device turns off by itself a lot
3) Most of the time it doesn't boot up, it just hangs and then tries it again
4) I cannot get updates
5) I cannot manually apply updates because I get the triangle when I try to apply them
6) I cannot download market apps
7) It doesnt charge when I plug it in the computer, but i can transfer files
I talked to ASUS about it and they just referred me to the website where i can DL firmware. Are there ANY suggestions, or do you guys think i'll have to send it in/get a new one?

I had the exact same problem as you after I downgrade from "Leaked 3.1 update" to 3.0.1 yesterday morning.
Here is what you need to do:
1) Go to this website: http://www.androidpolice.com/2011/0...-asus-eee-pad-transformer-android-3-1-update/
Download the EP101_SDUPDATE.zip file onto your computer.
2) You can either follow the instruction on www.androidpolice.com on how to install the Leaked 3.1 update" or you can do the following:
a) create a folder called "Asus" on your microsd card.
b) create a folder within "Asus" folder called "Update".
c) transfer the downloaded "EP101_SDUPDATE.zip" file onto your microsd card.
d) Rename the .zip file to some like: US_epad-user-8.2.3.14.zip (this is what I named mine).
e) insert your microsd card into your tablet. It will recognize the microsd card.
f) your tablet will have an exclamation icon on the lower right corner indicating that it has an update.
g) Click on that icon and install the update. The tablet will power off and install the new update. It normally take 3 to 5 minutes to finish.
I would recommend removing the .zip file after you update to 3.1.
I was informed to do a system wipe after updating to 3.1 but I don't think it's necessary.
Let me know if this helps.
Mike
I am still getting the same problem where it has the triangle and android when I try to apply the update.
That's because you renamed the file.
It has to stay as "EP101_SDUPDATE.zip" or it won't work.
Also number 7 on your list is not an issue at all. Your computer does not push out enough voltage to "charge" the device. It needs to be USB 3.0. However you'll notice when you plug your device into the computer with the screen off it charges at a few % per hour.

I kept the zip file name as "EP101_SDUPDATE.zip" and my TF did not recognize it after I unmount and remount my microsd card... It recognized it after I renamed it...

Maybe you can also try the method mentioned in www.androidpolice.com... Hopefully this method will allow you to flash the 3.1 update.
Mike
Either way it is not letting me update, it keeps getting hung when applying the update. I have wiped data and tried it, same thing.
i used to get the triangle and i solved it by installing a custom rom through CWM. i asked for help many times with no luck.
would that be worth it? or should i just send it in for a properly working unit? I mean i do not want to root it just yet, i just want a working unit.

if not then you should return and get a new one as most people doesn't seem to have this much problems on their TF

Follow this step by step, if it does not work then you have a different problem with your unit OR there is an issue with your sd card and you should probably format it or try a different one.

That's directly from Asus, I have no idea why androidpolice keeps getting brought up but their information is incomplete.
Go with what asus has directly on their site.
Hello, I am a nubee to this forum and the Asus TF700T that I own. I selected the wrong firmware update(WW_epad-10.X.X.X_2012xxxx now pending an install on my system tray) needed US_epad-10.X.X.X_2012xxxx. Can anyone tell me how to eliminate the pending update. Thanks ... Tony
What do mean you selected the wrong firmware? Is this something you did for an ota update?
Sorry can you give more details please.

Yes, I went to the Asus site using my TF700. After I entered Android for the OS prompt, I selected download firmware. There were 10 files. Next - the screen wouldn't display the full list of available selection on my Tablets screen. I tried to move away with a swipe and the first selection(WW_epad-10.X.X.X_2012xxxx), the only selection displayed, began to download. Other than shutting off the WiFi I couldn't stop the download and it now sits in the system tray of my tablet waiting for me to installed it. From what I can tell the firmware update I should have selected was US_epad-10.X.X.X_2012xxxx. So, it is my thought that if I allow WW_epad-10.X.X.X_2012xxxx to install I may render the Tablet unusable. If screen shots help I am sure I can get them to you provided that I have effectively explained the situation. Since I am a newb I can't enter the Asus URL for your convenience. But, Thanks for the reply. I can use the help. Regards Tony (T-Con)

Go to the file manager or the downloads app and delete the downloaded file from sdcard/download. Then redownload the correct one. The notification is not a prompt to install but notification of a downloaded file.

Ah it looks like you have downloaded the ota file manually. Not sure how to progress now. It's stored in the cache somewhere. Do a search on here about applying incremental ota updates manually and you will see some posts that instruct you how to reset the download.

K thanks! I have also put in a req. to Asus for help. If I don't find an exact instructional resolution on this issue I will call Asus for help. Thanks again and best regards. Tony (nubee T-Con)
first. you should have postet it to the Q&A.
Second: if you've downloaded the file from the asus site, it should be a zip file. which you would find by opening the app drawer, open "downloads" there the file will be, you can delete it.
then the message won't show up again.
then make sure every app is installed, that was installed when you buoght the pad.
tehn go to "about phone" update and check for updates, maybe try several times. then an update should appear, install it. repeat until you've the latest version
if that doesnt work, check out the summary in android general in this forum, and look for update ota without losing root, there you should find the ota packages and how to manually apply them
geri
Full OTA thread is
here.
Full release ODIN file is here.
A method has been found to install the beta without being accepted!
Thanks @jrkruse for finding this method!
You must be on PH1 to update to 7.0! Anything else will cause the Update to fail!
First download the update:
OTA Link: https://mega.nz/#!UYljzZyR!e0NDzPUCbDdFw-hZL6jS4sdg0Z3iOpBF7B8lYTv7-GU
then download the 2nd OTA file.
OTA 2: https://mega.nz/#!4AEFHYoK!WxyG8Smrsc6uiCBZtU4qOdsNd3Lk7RBWUSNE_rtTWeY Only flash this update if you are on the first OTA file!
Make sure your SD card is not encrypted or you may encounter errors
1. reboot to download mode (power + volume up +home) and make sure phone says Official under system and binary.
2. If it does not then you must odin the PH1 firmware, use the pit file and the full csc not the home csc file
3. go through setup
4. enable developer options
5. turn OEM unlock off
6. enable USB debugging
7. place Update.zip on Ext sd card in folder named "fota"
8. power off phone
9. reboot to download mode make sure both system and binary are official.
10. reboot to recovery (Power + volume up + home)
11. choose apply Update.zip from SD card
12. find Update.zip in the fota folder you created on your Ext sdcard
13. click yes to apply
14. Let phone start.
15. place 2nd Update.zip on Ext sd card in the fota folder
16. Power off phone
17. Boot into recovery
18. Select "Install update from sdcard"
19. Find the new update and select it.
If you would like to install the official T-Mobile nougat build you can follow instructions here.You must be on beta 2 to install!
You will not lose anything as this is an OTA
You do not want to be rooted. You must be stock for this to work!
There is no gear VR available on the beta.
Troubleshooting:
"E: footer is wrong" followed by "E: signature verification failed" : Decrypt SD Card and try again. Try new SD card if issue persists.
Rollback to PH1:
If you do not want the beta anymore or are having issues with it you can flash back to PH1 by following this guide:
Stock Firmware
or by simply using smart switch.
I just registered. We'll see what happens.
No way to trigger the update once the Registration is complete? I can't seem to find the update.
"After finishing the Galaxy Beta Program registration process, click on the 'Software Update' menu (Setting - Device information - download updates)." <-- these instructions from the Beta app doesn't seem to apply.
It also says the test starts the 11th...

Has anyone been able to download the beta yet?
@zimgir124 Have you gotten the update then? Because no one has posted about them getting the actual update. Only being able to register thus far seems to me that they are accepting the registration so they can do their picking and choosing then the 11th the roll out begins?

No download yet, however if you look at the date it say 9/11/16 which is November 9th, not September 11th.
It's also been confirmed on several websites for today and the date confirms it.
I'll update when I get the actual update
For those who want to see the FAQ, here's the link:
http://static.samsungmembers.com/betatest/binary/nos/US/faq_sub.html
For clarity, where is this menu: "Setting – Device information – download updates"?
It doesn't match the Settings > System > System Updates, where I would expect to see system updates.

It should come as just a regular OTA, so for me it is Settings > System Updates.
It might take a couple hours for the download to start
Is there any way you can capture the update when you get it? Didn't get in to the beta but I'd like to try it

Exactly... I downloaded the official app and attempted to register within maybe 3 hours of it being available and the beta "program" is full of participants!?! Samsung should allow as many people who want to beta test like how Google and Apple both do it...
Anyone seen anything?
We all know that users who own AT6T devices are not able to receive OTA updates if they are not part of the AT&T network or are outside the US.
Can someone who uses AT&T capture OTA update url link for Android 11, so that we who are unable to receive OTA updates can manually upgrade our devices ?
Also you can use this "OTA Link" app for capture url,
Edit: to working app properly you need first Clear Google Play Services
I think it would be very useful for the whole community who does not use AT&T services.
Im in the process of doing that. will get a sim from At&t in a few days and follow the guide you provide.
Oh man... eagerly waiting for this...still stuck on April 2020 update
I will send my gratitude beforehand as I am also waiting
I need help. There is an update. The phone is downloading over wifi. I can't cancel or pause the update. I'm following the guide and I can't fine any zip or ota file. Installed the app and is not showing any link to copy. I don't know how to cancel the update and start from zero. I only manage to turn off wifi to avoid finish the download

I hope no update is installed, so as not to download the update, Turn off wifi or via ADB you can run this command
Code:
adb shell pm disable-user com.lge.lgdmsclientatt
to disable apk for update, also you can stop connection over change DNS to private set for dns anything like "blabla.com" and internet connection will be stopped or go to go to ‘Settings’ → ‘System’ → ‘Developer options’ and turn off the ‘Automatic system updates’ toggle.".
maybe you are not runed logchat before stated uta updating.
if you using apk OTA link app, must be granted permissions via adb.
I'm not sure if it's possible to delete the OTA ZIP that is already in the process of updating, if you can factory reset the phone then remove the sim card, after deleting it will have to download again however prepare according to the old method of capturing the link again.
I did grant permision to the app with adb, I followed the insructions on the guide, I dont know if this is android 11 update or what, doesn't event mention on the update. I turn off wifi to prevent from donwloading the update, the I turn on the wifi and will download automatically I try the ota lext logcat several times after download resume but again I can't find the download adress using all those keywords. I'm going to try again this evening, and yes the automatic system updtaes is off

Maybe these methods no longer work on newer android systems, then the only thing left is to listen to the connection via computer, when I have the will I will study and write a tutorial.
One question, can you ask AT&T support can you get OTA update in roaming ?
Hey all, on Cricket here. Borrowed my friends AT&T sim today and got the notification to update almost instantly. Will attempt to capture the file later today, will post an update.

I'm not sure how much the described method really works for android 11 because the previous try od user is not successful, study a little how to catch traffic via computer, with Fidder, Wireshark and similar tools
Tried all methods, the download just started automatically when it connected to wifi and is now completed. I tired the app, wireshark, bug report methods and all failed. The update is NOT yet installed, just downloaded. Any suggestions?

Unfortunately I have no suggestions, the .zip file cannot be accessed directly without root permissions if ota downloaded.
Thank you for your effort
Don't know how these updates work on these newer devices or what kind of system AT&T use, but normally LG OTA updates aren't zips. Previously if any bigger update, the path was /data/fota/dlpkgfile and if smaller then same on /cache. Updates were possible flashable using LGUP - or maybe if put to the certain path to the /sdcard having .UP as extension and using Hidden Menu's FOTA Test...
Used SandroProxy to catch the urls... server's address was h t t p://dl01.gdms.lge.com:5005/ back then...

Waiting for the updare, too. If it's possible to update with a ATT sim in other countries, I would buy one via Amazon or something...
