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.

Not a problem, just downgrade back to .30, then do root. Just make sure you do reset in between before downgrade or upgrade. After downgrade back to .30, please let me know if you have OTA back for JB upgrade.

I got my tf700 on Tuesday and had to wait until last night (Thursday) before the JB OTA upgrade came through. Like you, I got an immediate update that wasn't JB. Suggest you wait a while.....

I was able to get to Jellybean per the below method with my stock Infinity. The issue is that OTA Root Keeper doesn't seem to keep root with installing from/with a EP201_768_SDUPDATE.zip.
I would like to avoid using the unlocker because I just want to be rooted not really fool around with any rom's at this time.
Anyone got suggestions?
Mine came as a stock V9.4.5.26 US SKU. That is what I updated to Jelly Been from with V10.4.4.16 US SKU zip.

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.

The process in summary:
1. Use asus unlock tool to unlock - just run the tool and follow the on screen direction, very simple.
2. Since you are rooted, download and install "goomanager" from the market to install custom recover TWRP-again open the app, tab on the 3boxex upper right hand corner and choose "Install OpenReoveryScript"- it will install TWRP automaticaly.
3. Boot into TWrP (hold down volume down and power button until see white text on the screen, let go both buttons, now hit the volume button twice to access recovery mode, choose 'install', browse to Cleanrom zip file then flash it.
That's it.

While you have root, do a full backup, once you flashed cleanrom, you have root back (cleanrom is prerooted), so you don't have to worry about keeping root.

Hello!
You will need to get a custom recovery flashed to your tablet now that you have unlocked.
Go to this guide CROMi help scroll to where it says "here we go" in blue.
Read the info about installing a custom recovery using ADB installed on a desktop computer.
If this is too complex then go here ADB Tool V8 use this to push a recovery to your tablet.
After this you can install super SU and gain root in JB.
If you can't get nvflash as it appears per your fm rev and don't feel comfortable with the steps in the all-in-one guide then I suggest you get help from some of the members here to walk you thru it. Luckily its very automated if you downgrade to ICS, use the batch file ICS root method, then get superuser or superSU, OTA rootkeeper or Voodoo OTA rootkeeper (both from the market), protect your su copy once you root (done in the app), and OTA back to JB 10.4.4.25 and you are good to go (Asus upgrade notification will occur before you finish all this).
I just landed from that flight and the ride was turbulence-free. But it took me a week to gather the info and another week to gather the courage to do it. Quite the learning curve for the newb no doubt and I'm a fast learner.

As I am sure many people said already:
1) install GooManager.
Go to the settings button, tap 'install TWRP recovery'.
Let GooManager do its magic.
1.a) do a titanium Backup of your data and apps.
b) make an 'orange backup' backup
(don't forget to change the CWM option to TWRP)
(easier than regular backups because it doesn't require you to turn it off.
2) download your preferred custom ROM
put it on your device
open Goo: tap reboot in recovery
3*) select wipe => factory reset when going to CM10.1
3°) selecht wipe => cache , and afterwards: dalvik cache
4) Still in TWRP: tap install and browse to the approprate .zip
Swipe to flash
5) let it reboot
(6: set it up: download titanium backup again and then open it and click restore to retrieve all your app data.)
7) Congratulations

Your instruction will not work, because he doesn't have root, so he can't install TwRP through GooManager!!!

You will have to install a recovery via fastboot. from there you can either root the stock rom or install a custom rom.

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.

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.

Yes, you can... It is a good guide if you can follow it.. You must make sure that you have the latest bootloader and compatible TWRP.. Those are very important so you are not brick your device...

you should probably create your own post so someone can help you, they need to know information like what version your currently running

Yes, you can... It is a good guide if you can follow it.. You must make sure that you have the latest bootloader and compatible TWRP.. Those are very important so you are not brick your device...

ok so i'm having a bit of trouble following this guide...
1) I installed TWRP (with the help of this page) http://www.teamw.in/project/twrp2/105 I had to use the Download - Recovery Image / Fastboot Method because the app method wouldn't download the blob file
2) Now, when I power + volume down boot I can see my bootloader isn't the correct version. how can I update the bootloader? I have the files from the original link i posted (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2481892) so there is the correct bootloader i just don't know how to install it.
is there a more detailed guide with actual step by steps?
Congrats on getting TWRP installed! The rest is easy.
In TWRP select 'Install' and navigate to wherever you have the zip file with the bootloader/TWRP package, select it (if it has xxx signed.zip in the file name you need to check the "verify zip signature" option. sbdags usually signs his zips - don't know if he did with this one).
Swipe the button to flash the file.
When it finished, boot back to system. Do not flash a rom at this point! That would cancel the bootloader flash. Boot back into system first, then back into TWRP and then flash the rom.
BTW - flashing the modified Asus stock rom is perfectly fine, but I wonder why you don't flash CROMi-X 5.2.2?
That rom is from the same developer, based on this stock rom and miles improved since sbdags debloated the stock version.
sbdags stock rom is not really supported whereas he puts out a better version of CROMi-X about every 10 days! It's exhausting to keep up! LOL
You'll find it here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2425383
You can still flash the BL/TWRP package you downloaded already. It's the same as the one for CROMi-X.

Thanks, Honestly whatever custom rom I have now can randomly reboot and i think is giving me touch screen issues so was just going to hit up a stock install and see if that fixes any problems.
gonna try out the rom you suggested and i can always go back if necessary.
one thing, when i installed theTWRP the blue bar filled up completely and i left it for about 10 minutes and it was still there. so i powered down and everything booted back up correctly (and i can get into the recovery mode).
does everything sound ok to proceed?

You have to kick it out when it is completed by using the fastboot command or just using your power button.. So you are good to go...
You have to try out all the rom and kernels that are available then choose the best one that fit your need...Good luck...
