Anyone heard when/how Asus intend to resolve this?

It's been fixed in the Prime 1.7 ROM. It's a tweak to services.jar
So I guess it won't be too hard for Asus to release an official fix!

Is there any way to fix it without rooting the tablet? I dont wanna go through all the unrooting pain next time Asus decides to release an OTA...

No, it's a system file. So you'll need root unfortunately.

I don't want to rely on the way some hacker decided was the correct fix. I was hoping there was news on the official fix from Asus and will apply that.
There are many ways of fixing things, but usually there is only one right way...

Agree... This is annoying.
It's rendered one of my Apps (Photaf) totally unusable.

Happening to me, too, in any application that wants to use location services. :/

It's happening to me no matter what. Just sitting at the home screen or flipping through the home pages. Always there for me. I very much want ASUS to fix this soon.

It might have been solved with the latest stock ROM. See this thread from today

Not so much solved as reverted. Asus took all their calibration code out in the new update.

It might.
Does TF101G have the update with the App Backup yet?
We lacked a TF101G and Slider device to test on, so it's a maybe. In all likelihood it will work with those devices as well

It will let you use custom ROM's soon enough.
Root ahead and wait a few days and it'll be there

Tested on my B80 transformer. Working Root access!

Brilliant :-D
And thanks for the clarification

I have been checking here everyday since I got my TF-101 in September and found it was unrootable with methods at that time. Downloaded and rooted in seconds, painless and simple.

So now someone post the 3 lines to flash the recovery

I did a small contribution to the code, imprving the version check. Please check it out on github

What about CWM ? And can we unroot again in case a new OTA is on it's way ?

First off, mandatory comment about asking questions in the wrong forum.
Secondly, I wouldn't expect anything to be released until asus officially releases the update file and/or source code on their website.

I was curious as well. I have the ASuS nag screen coming up saying I have downloaded it and asking me to update. Says Flash and WIFI Direct are not supported and that would probably be a deal killer for me. I would like to know the impact on my root access and pending flash.

As far as meeting your correct forum standards, I have a ROM pending install from this thread and would want to know the effect of this update on installation.
As far as expecting anything I would say that test has been met in that it came across as an update from ASUS. You might not have seen that depending on the ROM you are on, so could you please lighten up? It is a valid question and it does have an impact on development, and JB rom issues that seem to abound. Perhaps there are some fixes in this.

If you want a custom rom within 24 hours of the official jellybean release, make one yourself.
Of course there will be custom rom coming out soon.....

I pulled in JB this morning, trying to figure out how to get to Google Now.

This may come across as rude, but I was just pointing out the site rules. Development is for things that someone has created not for questions in general. As for it affecting your ROM pending install, I'd like to point out that you installing a ROM is not development.
As for Asus releasing the update, they have released the update ota. This ota does not come to anyone with an unlocked device, and it does not change the fact that the latest released source code/ota available from asus(from the website not ota) is for 9.4.3.30. In my opinion there should not be an expectation of a stock based rom released before asus has released it on their site due to the fact that anyone with an unlocked device doesn't have access to it.

Jelly bean update!!!!

Just got the OTA! Finally no more
MOD EDIT : Ignore posts like this.

[Q] 3.1 SlimBean ROM Results in 2.6 Install?

Hello all,
I used to have CM10 installed, but I decided to give SlimBean a shot on my AT&T Skyrocket. I downloaded the 3.1 ROM (Slim-i727-3.1.0-OFFICIAL), and flashed it successfully. However, since install, I've been getting notifications from UpdateMe about upgrading to 3.1. Sure enough, I checked the 'About' section and it claims I'm running version 2.6 of the ROM, and version 4.1.2 of Android. Most annoyingly, I tried downloading the supposed 3.1 update from UpdateMe, only to get an error every time I try to download it (though I have used it to download other add-ons flawlessly). Any ideas what could be happening?
EDIT: Just for clarification, I did a full wipe/cache-clearing prior to installing the new ROM.
Thank you,
RMJ

Nothing? Nobody? Anybody???

If you read the FAQ link, which is right below the download link in the SlimRom thread you would find this:"I get an error when downloading the update with UpdateMe"
We don't support OTAs at the moment.
Please download the newest version of our ROM from the website.

That's the problem, though: I HAVE the newest version (as far as I can find) downloaded and flashed. I'm looking at it right here, file name is Slim-i727-3.1.0-OFFICIAL.zip. However, upon flashing it, my phone says 2.6. And I did read the FAQ, that's the minor part of the question I asked, I just thought I should include it for detail.
That said, let me repeat: Why would a downloaded 3.1 version of SlimBean give me 2.6?

Okay, I solved the problem by reflashing (again), and it's finally 3.1. Not sure why it wasn't working before. Anyway, thanks for the [lack of] help!

Sounds to me like you may have flashed the ota update fix which, if flashed after 3.1, would revert your build.prop to the earlier version. If that's the case, there's no need. The updater app issue was corrected with 3.1 and you would have known that if you read the whole thread. In fact, this exact problem was already discussed in the slim thread. Reflashing the 3.1 build is the only fix.
