Flash a custom recovery/ROM. That should do it
But I'm not sure what else if the fwupgrade freeze didn't work
Yes. How do I stop this crap!?
I have 2 of these both rooted and hers keeps trying to install it. Its already downloaded on hers. I interrupted mine by killing the internet connection as soon as I saw it start downloading.
I'm sure when I'm sleeping it will try to install itself. So ill just shut my phone off.
Grr...
I'm running nosymathy rom with CWM installed and unlocked bootloader. The verizon update downloaded and prompted to install which I deferred for an hour. Not sure if the update will simply fail because I froze fwupgrade or not but I don't want to take the chance and I want to stop OTA completely so it doesn't even check.

Thats an issue with no-sympathy.... Most ROM's block the OTAs so you don't even need to worry about them.
This is actually the first ROM i've heard of that allows OTA's to even show up on the prompts.
Cmon no one knows how to prevent OTA prompts? How is it done in other ROMs?

You would have to ask the ROM's developers. Refuse it, and flash to another ROM that does it automatically for you. Obviously No Sympathy didn't think of an OTA... whynot I dunno. But every other developer did.

Just flash a custom recovery - ota updates can't install through a custom recovery so the furthest it gets onto your phone is in the /cache directory limbo.

I'm running CWMT, and that's what I awoke to this morning. I will freeze the service mentioned a few posts back and see if it actually prevents the OTA from even trying. I guess it's time to flash a custom ROM...

So far so good on freezing SDM. We'll see tomorrow morning.
This doesn't seem like a common problem, but I found a few people who got this issue.
My TF700 have been on 4.0.1 and it does not upgrade to 4.1 JB even though it has been released for a week. I have then used the custom method to force update to 10.4.4.16 - JB. However, I know 4.4.18 just came out and I am afraid it still would not update OTA.
Anyone has a solution for this??

Have to try to go into settings->about tablet-> check for update?? I assumed that your device is locked/rooted with pure stock JB, no modification, no system app freezing?

Yup checking for update has nothing
Before I upgraded to 10.4.4.16 the device was totally stock, and it just does not update for the longest time.
Since I had updated to 10.4.4.16, I have then unlocked, rooted. No mod, no system app freeze.
Still no update notice for 10.4.4.18

I didn't realized it was that and now I went back to read the All-In-One Guide For Asus Infinity thread detail; I do see that in the note. I am fine with doing manual updates but was just bothered the device doesn't function properly**
I guess now even the tablet will have to be manual updated OR eventually use custom rom :fingers-crossed:

Yup. Assuming you're into the stock experience and have the keyboard (thus appreciating the shortcut keys), CleanROM is eyeing you. Your 700 is behaving normally, so that's one problem out of the way.
When I come back to home, i saw that update is available. But I forgot temporary disabled root (ota root keeper). My device started update, but it stoped in bootloader (deat android with red triangle) My tf started without update, and now I can`t OTA (update is not available for you). Can I redownload update, and update soft one more time? How can I do this?

Would the above link be of any help?
I had something kinda weird happen just now.
I originally unlocked and rooted the moment I got the tablet, and manually installed 10.4.4.16. Everything works great.
I just finished manually updating to 10.4.4.18 and after a reboot, it said I have a system update available, which was 10.4.4.16.....
[/doublerainbowvoice] Does this mean I still got an OTA even though I'm unlocked and rooted?

Sorry man!
Looks you and me are in the same boat.
I just threw up my hands and did another factory reset last evening.
I've just had an alert pop up on my 101 saying it's downloaded a new system firmware??
I'm already on .27. Is there a new version or is something going on???
Install it and report back
I wouldn't have thought so, it's been about a year since the last one

Yea it might replace recovery and unroot you, you should be able to use Easyflasher to root and flash custom recovery again though, it doesn't care which ROM is installed
Im not seeing any other reports of an update though
If you're rooted, you could pull the update and upload it for people here to check, I can't remember the exact location though, something like /sdcard/asus
EDIT - Possibly this location: "<Internal Storage>\ASUS\Update"
Its been so long since I ran stock I've forgotten where it downloads it to
We used to pull them off the TF and upload them for the devs to incorporate into their custom ROMs
Well, went ahead and let it install.... and I'm still on .27??
Is it possible for the version code to get corrupted and misread by the routine that checks for updates???
Anything is possible with ASUS firmware, I dropped ASUS a long time ago
They dropped us even longer ago
I'm almost tempted to switch back to stock to check. I heard that it will still be .27 but they updated some of the firmware?
Maybe they have fixed my opengl issues... Not gonna get my hopes up.
Can someone verify what's new, if anything?

Apart from the OP of this thread, there is no-one else reporting an update, I think something just bugged out on his TF and downloaded the .27 update again
ASUS haven't updated the TF101 for a year or more, they aren't likely to start again now, and nothing is on their official firmware page for the TF101 either
FINALLY! Still waiting for the Ota to hit my phone... Anyone gotten it yet? And I'm betting March's security update is going to be included too.

Downloading it now. I will be really interested to see if they managed to address the stand-by bug that was causing excess drain and upgrade the modem firmware to improve connectivity. Those are the two main remaining issues with this phone. Hopefully they also implemented a method to force applications into full-screen, but I'm not holding my breath on it.
Updating now!!!

Already disappointed on the modem firmware front. No upgrade there. Also, no ability to force full-screen. Going to pass judgement on stand-by bug after 48 hour or so, unless obviously an issue.

I sure as hell hope not because the deep-sleep issue is horrible. You lose an average of 1.5-2h of actual SoT and the drain is regularly >1% per hour in stand-by.
I just keep getting an installation error, now I have a permanent notification telling me that the installation failed.

I am on 8.1b1 rooted. I flashed the stock 8.1b1 boot img to remove root. Then tried to sideload the 8.1 official OTA zip, and I get this:

I was in the same boat as you. I was on 8.1B1 rooted so I fastboot flashed the boot.img, then rebooted , downloaded the OTA which wouldn't install.
Went back to boot-loader, flashed the boot.img to both slots, rebooted, took OTA, and it still won't work. I get "couldn't update installation problem"
I didn't have an issue getting the last OTA, the same way.
I dunno
Edit: Mine just did a factory data reset on boot up. I think I'll be able to install the OTA now.....

Yea..not looking to start over.
The OTA I downloaded was off the reddit announcement thread. I'm assuming that guy pulled it off the device. Essential said they were going to post "sideloading files" also. So, I'm hoping that those are somehow different. (Otherwise why wouldn't they just throw a link up there)
Wonder if Essential pushed it since Pixel is now offering pre release of Android P?
My radio has noticeably improved, instead of VZW its finally showing Verizon wireless. And the new developer options are nice

My install wasn't working either at first (same boat as you guys, Magisk rooted with custom kernel). At first I just did a Magisk uninstall and reboot but it wouldn't install. Thought maybe I still had a custom recovery installed, but there was no TWRP in recovery. So, I just did a sideload install of the 8.1 beta using adb and then rebooted. That put me back on stock 8.1b1 and retained all my settings/data. Then I made sure my settings were correct in developer options (USB debugging, etc.), and it's finally installing. Not sure, maybe I just didn't hold my mouth right the first couple times, but it's working now.
Can anyone tell me if stable has multitouch issues that were on beta?
Rooted 7.1.1 took the update just fine, lost root and twrp
Looking at META_INF\com\android\metadata, it's expecting essential/mata/mata:8.1.0/OPM1.180104.010/144:user/release-keys but, based on the text at the top of the screen when sideloading, the device is at ssential/mata/mata:8.1.0/OPM1.180104.010/144:user/test-keys. Changing it is pointless, since META_INF\MANIFEST.MF contains a SHA-256 hash of of the metadata file. I'm going to try recomputing the hash and updating the OTA zip.
Edit: Didn't work. But has someone on reddit confirm Jank4AUs situation.
Hi,
I bought my phone three months back. Ever since the last update Version Name - WW18.0840.2106.86 my wifi and Hotspot just won't turn on.
I have been through the asus forum and seems like alot of customers are facing this issue.
One of them confirmed that even after replacing motherboard the issue persists. Others are facing air trigger issues after replacing the motherboard.
Just wanted to know if anyone here is facing similar issues.
DO let me know your thoughts on should I visit service center and Get my motherboard replaced or should I wait for the next update. My current Version Name - WW18.0840.2107.151
PS: My phone is not rooted
Thanks
I have not had these issues personally. I just updated to .151 last night though, so we shall see.
The general consensus is that the mobo needs to be replaced, and will most likely not get fixed with a software update. If it was correctable, a major issue like this would have forced a new FW update after .86 caused your initial problem.
You could always try flashing raw FW if you really want to tinker, but I doubt it will help. I would hit the service center and get the mobo replaced.
Good luck!

OTA files are the standard updates. There are a lot of how to guides that answer most of these questions, which may be why nobody is jumping up to walk you through it.
I wouldn't trust someone installing OTA files in TWRP because the system handles them already without any software. That is just asking for problems.

The link I posted earlier is included in that. Not sure why nothing showed up for it, but maybe you'll have better luck getting to it that way.
There's always a possibility it is a hardware issue. A lot of them have been SIM, Wifi, and Bluetooth issues. If you suspect a kernel issue, make sure you are following the instructions to restore. If you only flashed a boot, you didn't follow the instructions.
