I have HTC Sensation Z710e. It is S-Off and rooted. It contains stock rom (2.3.4). My device is bought in Dubai and three days ago I received an official update (Asia_India update 1.50 and I was told that there is another update after that 1.52) and I tried to update through CWM and I got error (status 7).
After that, I went and made my sensation SuperCID (everything went smoothy and got CID 11111111). When I tried to update again through CWM, same error appeared.
I was told that I should remove CID assert from update or something like that, I opened the update package on my computer but found nothing.
Need help, thanks.
u mean u tried to update an OTA thru CWM?

Yes, what did I do wrong? I know basically nothing about Linux and I come from Windows mobile.
I also tried to direct (not through CWM) update, It failed also
you can't apply the ota with cwm installed. It won't work.

Now what? Should I remove CWM, if yes, how? Or is there something else I am missing?
Hey buddy, although the assert statement removal method i told u works for updates that change a few files on filesystem, it wont work for this update as It makes changes to wifi drivers etc, and possibly the kernel itself which needs original recovery to update.
What u can do is, open the zip file of last update you applied, inside you will find a firmware.zip file. Inside this file is another file called recovery.img. Extract it. Take the CWM zip file, open it and delete the recovery.img file and add the newly extracted one. Basically, after doing this, you will have a flashable zip of original recovery.
Put it in /sdcard (root of sdcard) and reboot into bootloader (Power off the phone, press and hold volume down button and press the power button). It will detect the file and ask you to press volume up button to update. Do so and reboot phone. Now you will have the original recovery and you can install the update.
After installation, you can again flash CWM to get back to it.

I'm running a custom ICS rom with CWM recovery but want to revert to stock so I can sell my Transformer. Is there an easy way to flash back to stock in one step?
You should search the forum for NVFlash...
NVFlash is not necessary to return to stock ICS. Just download official Asus firmware from the asus site and flash it like you would a custom rom. It will return you to stock firmware and recovery.
+1 To above, that's all you need to do.
I might be wrong, but it is said by many that official firmware zip cannot be flashed by cwm recovery until it is repackged for cwm. Wolf just
published a new way to root/unroot/degrade rooted and un-rppted TF:

You can flash the stock firmware from Asus via CWM. It will unroot and restore stock recovery.

Agreed I'm interested in this as well as I'm giving mine to my dad and I don't want to have to worry bout flashing it a lot for him.
Ive just downloaded firmware from asus site put it on sdcadd and in cwm i tried it to flash, but no success update aborted or something similarafter opening update package
Edit: do not forget to unzip the package downloaded from Asud site before flashing!
It worked like a charm. After flashing in cwm it restarts it update apps as after rom update and then you have pop up that firmware update is avaible, the same as with asus ota

i can confirm that this is the proper procedure (because i did it just seconds ago literally)
1. download the firmware from Asus (http://support.asus.com/download.aspx?SLanguage=en&p=20&s=16&m=Eee+Pad+Transformer+TF101&os=32)
2. extract the zip in the zip.
3. copy the resulting zip file (the zip in the zip) on the sdcard (or micro sd if you are using roach's 3.2.0.1 like i was)
4. reboot in recovery, that is, shut down, then pwr + vol down until there is a prompt, then vol. up.
5. select apply update from sdcard, select choose zip, navigate to where you placed the zip file on your card
6. Flash it. (and cross fingers, never hurts)
7. normally it will work, then reboot the tablet using the reboot system now function
8. Once its rebooted, it will apply updates to application and a "warning/exclamation" sign will prompt you to install the firmware you just downloaded. install it.
9. once that is done, you will have reverted to stock firmware. leaving your transformer to feel like this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1eRd923m9go

After this is possible to see if transfomer was rooted or runned a custom rom? Might sound dumb, but i read some time ago (cant find where) about some "not so easy" procedures to return stock for warranty.
i can vouch for my TF being unrooted again. simply open ROM Manager and it should tell you right away that you need to be rooted.
an expert could confirm but im pretty sure that after installing ASUS's firmware all binaries themselves should be stock. after, you always have the option to factory reset the TF and that should clear any possible leftovers.

In step 8, what is the firmware I need to install? Has not the update do the install of the tf101 firmware?
the tf will install the firmware you just install "for real". its the best i can say, i cannot really explain why a real expert could. im just a guy who followed indications
but i know that te TF will detect the firmware you installed in recovery and re-install it for itself and this time it will completely re-stock and un-root your TF.
oh and about re-rooting, if you stocked the TF, you'll need to search the forums here as you'll need to apply the same rooting techniques for an unrooted TF. best way to find out if you don't know is to install rom manager from the market. it'll tell you right away if you are rooted or not.

I assumed that you either have twrp or cwm installed since you're unlocked. The below instruction is much better.
CREDIT to Pretoriano80:
========= Recover Factory Restore with custom recovery =========
1) Download the latest firmware from Asus site (based os your SKU,eg. ww 9.4.5.26 * firmware)
2) Extract the download zip file somewere on your desktop. The file name should be EP201_768_SDUPDATE.zip
3) Copy EP201_768_SDUPDATE.zip to the root of your MicroSD card
4) Insert the MicroSD card in your tablet and use button combination to go to recovery --> Start the tablet by pressing Volume Down and POWER together for 5 seconds ,a message will inform you that you have 5 seconds to enter the recovery,press Volume UP before the 5 seconds expire
5) From the recovery menu press Install and select the "EP201_768_SDUPDATE.zip" file ...wait until the install process ends and then restart your device.

Ok so this worked to bring me back to stock, but when I went to update it was still telling me "no update available". So I booted to recovery to make sure i didn't have twrp anymore and it went to stock recovery. Unfortunately the little android guy had a red "!" and it said it couldn't find "/sdcard" and that the update failed.
I just want jellybean :/
Borrow a microSD card from your phone temporarily if you need to.....

Because you have unlocked bootloader, that's why you can't use OTA to update, you need re root and with twrp/cwm, you could install the OTA patch version of JB (incremental update). You could use the stock recovery to update to full version JB, but then you will lose root. If you don't know how I can provide some instructions for you.

Yes i didn't think the whole number was a requirement for everyone to see after I sent it to you, do you have any other suggestions? apprentley I can do it manually using these instructions:
Check your device’s SKU through the following procedure.
On the tablet, go into Settings » About tablet. Then, check the Build number.
If the build number starts with “TW”, your SKU is TW. Similarly, if your build number starts with “US”, you must download the firmware for the US SKU. Similarly for WW, you need to download the WW firmware.
Download the update for your SKU from the official ASUS website. Select Android from the drop-down box, click on Firmware, then download the latest update’s file.
Extract the downloaded zip file once to obtain another zip file.
Now, we need to copy the obtained zip file to the tablet.
If you have a custom recovery like ClockworkMod or TWRP installed on the tablet, copy the zip file obtained in step 3 to the internal SD card.
If you are on stock recovery on the tablet, rename the file to ”EP201_768_SDUPDATE”, then copy it to the external SD card.
[Important] Now, further steps depend on whether you have stock recovery on the tablet or are using a custom recovery like ClockworkMod or TWRP recovery. Follow step 6 if you have stock recovery on the tablet, or step 7 if on a custom recovery.
For stock recovery
Shut down the tablet. Hold Power + Vol Down buttons until a message appears saying “Press Vol. Up to enter RCK (5s)”. Here, press the Volume Up key within 5 seconds to enter recovery.
The update will automatically start installing, then the tablet will reboot after the update is finished.
You can now stop following the guide as your tablet has now been updated.
For custom recovery
Shut down the tablet. Hold Power + Vol Down buttons until a message appears saying “Press Vol. Up to enter RCK (5s)”. Here, press the Volume Up key within 5 seconds to enter recovery.
Select wipe cache, then select Yes to confirm cache wipe (if using TWRP recovery, select Wipe, then select Cache/dalvik cache).
Select install zip from sdcard, then select choose zip from sdcard. Scroll to and select the update file that you copied to the tablet in step 4. Confirm installation by selecting Yes on the next screen. (if using TWRP recovery, select Install, then select the update file)
After the update is installed, select go back then select reboot system now to reboot the tablet (if using TWRP recovery, select the Reboot system button to reboot the tablet).
After the tablet reboots, it will be running the latest firmware.

People reported that one factory reset did not do the wipe completely, 2 should be enough, but I like to play on the "super clean wipe", I do it 3 times right before you upgrade. Not going to hurt, why not?

Don't worry about the OTA, this is the incremental update, you want the full version update anyway. Just follow the direction that you posted above. Do you want to root your device? if you do, you need to do it now before upgrade to Jelly Bean. Once you're on Jellybean, you can't root anymore.

If you don't want to unlock, the only way is you have to downgrade back to .30, root, install OTA rootkeeper and make a root backup, then do the OTA upgrade to JB, then restore root with OTA rootkeeper.
Hi i got my docking station to day and the only thing that works is the mouse function, i cannot write anything anywhere, i have it to default swedish and i have uninstalled swift key but not sixaxis, i have restarted it several times, is it possible that my custom rom makes it incompatible? I use the twrp when i rooted it and customized it.
Thx

Same procedure as with stock or with custom rom. Go into recovery, select the Android Icon with vol down then hit vol up twice to execute.

Haha you're in luck. There is a new tool that allow you to root while on JB rom. So I recommend to download the FULL ASUS rom from Asus website, unzip the file then use your twrp to flash this rom. After this, you will be on the latest 4.2 but you will lose root and TWRP. Then go here to get the tool http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2230763 and root your JB. Once done download Goomanager from the market and install the latest TWRP. From here on you can flash what ever you like.

Alright so I got my device back from service and I read what you said, however this does not work unless I can boot TWRP right? That is the case right now, I get the android logo at first, then the logo falls over with a exclamation mark.

Since you only have stock recovery, you need to do this:
1. Download the latest Asus full firmware from Asus site. Decompress downloaded .zip file (it will be another .zip)
2. Rename the new zip file to EP201_768_SDUPDATE.zip
3. Format FAT32 the MicroSD card that you will be using for the update process
4. Copy the file to (the root directory of) your MicroSD
5. Insert it into the tablet
6. Shutdown (power off) the tablet
7. Power it on by pressing and holding VOLUME DOWN and POWER buttons simultaneously
8. When you see white text in the top left corner of the screen, release the buttons, then press VOLUME UP button twice, the upgrade process
should start...
9. Wait patiently for 10 minutes or so
Once done, use Asus unlock tool to unlock then use motochopper to root and once rooted download Goomanager app from the market to install custom recovery (TWRP). Finally use TWRP to flash ROM/Kernel.

If you device is NOT unlocked, you can't flash TWRP or custom rom/kernel. You only can do root.
Edit: You need to unlock your device first using Asus unlock tool (Version 7) can be download from Asus website.

Ps: my device has 4.2.1
