Are we the only ones having these issues with the new almighty jelly bean update or did our fellow tf300 owners go through the same thing?

There are always issues with every update on every OS (iOS, Windows, MacOS, etc) no matter what brand, device, or architecture.
If anyone tells you different they are trying to sell you something.

From what I can tell the only ones with problems are the ones with root..... Which everyone knew was going to cause issues.... If you change your core system, expect problems when you get an update that alters said core system and requires the original files. Simple as that.
Also, it's one update for millions of variable systems. That's bound to cause issues.

Umm.. Which problems are we talking about? I was rooted and with update nada problems.
This is better update that I expected

People like me that were rooted and had done things like modify LCD density which modifies build.prop which prevents the OTA from going through.
It was just a small workaround that took maybe 15 minutes of time to manually reinstall .30, reroot, then reinstall JB.
I wouldn't even call it a problem, really.

I myself have no issues as far as I know but you get a lil nervous when you shwear everyone else's problems on here

Android was designed (...arguably) to be easily modified, of course we'll see problems come up because many users like to tweak their devices. I'm having problems with mine, though I know it's gone through a custom rom and several tweak mods. Am I frustrated that I can't access fastboot? Yes. Am I surprised? No. Am I raging at Asus? No.

I've owned all 4 Asus Tablets. This is by far the best update since day one. Any and all issues I've ever had are gone. This is the way the Transformer was suppose to work since day one.
Now I can proudly say this is the best tablet on the market to date. Bar none!

This. Rooted, prepped for the update (unfroze stuff, restored build.prop). Updated, restored root, cold booted. I was going to factory reset but it is running so well right now, I may not bother unless I see some kind of crash, etc. Best update I've had on a TF so far.

4.1.2 is here

Hey guys,
Just letting you know I have leaked 4.1.2 for our devices over in my thread. Link Here
Enjoy. :good:
EDIT: Just a small note, this does not yet include the Premium Pack (multi-window, etc...) this is just Verizon's first test build of 4.1.2. Mostly bug fixes and minor features.

hmm..any nice updates on 4.1.2 over 4.1.1?

Yes the 4.2 gapps and should have multi window stock.

Any difference in the radio?

My readings say no Premium Pack so no Multi-Windows.

Wow could Verizon NOT be the last one to release 4.1.2 for once?

I couldn't download just the radio. I'd like to flash that only for now. Anyone got a link?

I never got the point of these expandable notifications. That's why its a notification to get your attention that something is going on if you want more info as to what it is click on it. But I guess the more features the better right?

it's nice when you have multiple emails/sms messages to read and if a couple are long it does come in handy to expand on it, but yea it's really annoying the way it's set up right now in TW

I agree maybe I'd use it if it was two finger swipe down. I wonder if we could ask the developer of kindacrap mods if its possible for him to fix it

Yeah, it seems like people are really hyped about 4.1.2. It's basically any custom TW ROM already released, since the 4.1.1 ROMs have 4.1.2 features in them. Now, if it were 4.2, that'd be something to get hyped about!

Any results on the radio in this leak? Curious if it is any better signal wise.

Nah they're correct to be excited. Samsung explicitly stated their new "premium suite" update with Note 2 features (like multi-window) would become available in 4.1.2. However it seems none of these features are available in the current leak. Perhaps the next one!

Its only been a day BUT I have noticed a huge difference in performance since running it. I havent added anything to the Rom that I havent ran before. I used to have a delay on my menu button when using Apex as my default, its gone, the version of Apex is the same. My camera loads much faster than it used to, I would have a 2-3 second black screen delay when starting the cam. Now its almost instant every time. I have a lot more free Ram than old stock version, I debloated the heck out this Rom and am steady between 480-600mb used with over 1gb free! My last Rom ran between 700mb-1gb used. The Group play app works well actually and its really easy to use. Quad scores are up. Battery seems better, im on 18hrs with 1hr 45min screen on, 59% left.
Again, these are my findings after 24+ hrs, yours will vary. I run LK.

anyone know how many leaks we got before blk3 hit?

I don't think the devs want to risk hard bricking their own phones. I know the devs with the International version will make ROMs based on that leak.

Yea too much differences between the two variants as they are completely different phones internally.

We're around 2-3 months behind the international version, correct? 4.2.1 has leaked but we're not even on 4.1.2 yet . I care but it's not a huge deal to me but some sort of timeline would be nice.

Hero just posted that he is porting it. :thumbup:

You guys that are getting excited about 4.2.1 must have never used it before. This version will become known as the Windows Vista of Android.
The biggest bug I have is https://code.google.com/p/android/i...c=ID Type Status Owner Summary Stars&id=39633 . It was somewhat fixed in 4.2.2, but not completely. There are several other issues introduced in 4.2. There are lots of people that believe that nothing since 4.1.2 has been better than that version. Each Android since then has had bugs that ruin the experience and should have been caught by the beta testing team.

International always gets the love first

You're talking strictly TW right? Because the only issues with 4.2 AOSP are the signal and bluetooth, which I believe was fixed with 4.2.2. The signal has been worked on and is actually pretty decent depending on which ROM you flash. What other "experience ruining" bugs have you dealt with?

4.2 on my nexus devices runs without a hitch. l haven't even had issues with Bluetooth. 4.2 on my S3 on the other hand has been a bit buggier. Data drops, crappy Bluetooth audio and crappy/inoperable camera have plagued every rom I've tried.

Guys, did you ever think about porting galaxy s4 rom on our device? that'd be great if you port Touchwiz 4.2.2.

Can't be done. We can get certain apps but not a whole ROM their debloated stock software is 1.4gigs.

Oh I see, But that would be great if someone could make that worked. I know that certain apps will not work on our device because of S4's different hardware, but some features like the gestures while in gallery or quick notification when phone is locked will worked because its just the censor on the left side of earpiece, maybe that could worked. I just cant afford s4 so I wish maybe we could get an update of 4.2.2 touchwiz even if other apps or features would not work, I just the love the S4's Rom, that's all.

[Leak] 4.2.2 leaks for International S3

I can't wait to see what the ROM devs do with this!
Includes some of the non hardware based goodies that the S4 has.
" New features include a familiar array of lock screen widgets and unlock effects, new display modes, a re-tooled quick settings area in the notification pull-down, a new driving mode and an updated version of the S Voice assistant app. Some of the headline Galaxy S4 features like "Air view" hover-touch abilities aren't included -- that's because they're dependent on the S4's internal hardware."

I'm saying ktoonz does have a tw version of his kernel if that's what you prefer. You could try using the ViPER4Android app and mess with the settings to clean that up.

Just wanted to point you in the right direction to fix your Bluetooth issue either through ktoonz's touchwiz kernel, fauxsound app, or ViPER4Android app. You may need to tweak the settings a bit to your liking as i don't know how severe your issue is. Could be the phone hardware, a software issue, a rom issue, or the Bluetooth headset itself causing it. It's not something that's easy to troubleshoot online. Sorry if i lost you, I'm a bit sleep deprived. Sorry if I was vague or rude. On that note, bedtime. Hope you get your issue resolved.

I've never had the Bluetooth issue with a TW ROM, only AOSP.
Thank you for the insight though. Get some rest.

So once the International version gets the official update, we can probably expect to see it 3 or 4 months later thanks to Verizon.

I just read that article and watched the video. Looks like aosp but with a few design tweaks. It would be nice if they just fixed the keyboard in the update. Ha

I wish Verizon would leak more updates. Other phones I have had in the past had new roms almost every week. The Galaxy S3 has been a big disappointment in factory updates, released hardware, and support. Once Samsung neglected to release a decent wireless charge option and Verizon cold shouldered its users, I don't think I'll go back to Samsung. I miss my HTC.
