[Q] 4.2.1 make me crazy want to downgrade back to 4.1 - Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

hi all,
my device is tf300t (US) 32giga ,rooted and has twrp with all backup !
like i wrote on the topic the 4.2.1 make me crazy is acting like a old pc.
everything is moving "slow" even the power button is take few second to reacte !
i remember the short time i was on 4.1 it was just fine !
so i want make a test a go back to 4.1 and check, i already backup all the content on tablet with twrp on my sd card.
so what do you think ?
btw i test the launcher 4.2.1 and 4.1 and is still the same problems !
maybe in the future i will buy the famous dock, and here my question: it is important that the dock is US ? if i buy Europe or else ? what do you think ?

my tablet is running fine on 4.2.1 maybe you should do a factory reset??

Yes it is
You need to use this program from the Play Store:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=umts.manager.jk
I had issues with the latest busybox though, when it updated the above program stopped working.

i remember i read somewhere it says android doesn't support usb 3g,
but maybe their tablet wasn't rooted
Thank you guys!
I've read that it has something to do with drivers, it it right?
Just wondering, is it possible to "mix" settings from the 300TG Rom to the 300T Rom?
Like adding the 3G part of the Wireless & Networks menu from the TG to the 300T...does it make any sense, or am i way off?!
Thanks again!

you may want to take a look at the hydrophonic rom by seanz
on the TF300T, he's enabled the phone, but yeah, there's no modem/ sim card there to use
he's also working on a version for the TF300TG

I am following this! Thank you! Feedbacks says it`s the best!
Not unlocked yet tho` but when i do, it`s definitely going to be my first choice!
So maybe the usb Adapter would successfully function as a modem/ sim card...? If the phone is enabled...!?
I`m going to ask Seanz about it as well...
Thanks!

Ok so I used the umts manager app and it worked, im using it right now to reply, but ive noticed that I cant do much with it, I cant download from playstore or from other places, saying that I have no network, is there some way to make it seem as if there is a network or something?

That is the same problem with LAN adapter ...you can only usethe browser. Play store needs wifi connection ..else it won't download anything as it deems the other ways as not a compatible connection

Tell you the truth, i have no clue....
i do know that the phone features were on at first ver.
Bc this is what Seanzcreams said...
"Ya I brought in the phone features as an experiment but ill def pull them "
So maybe he already did...
If he didn't, then i believe there should be something different in the Networks & wifi menu...right?

I just installed PPP Widget on my TF300T running stock JB. It's a little unstable but works with my Huawei 1752 modem.
You have to be rooted to use it.
Also it isn't listed as an app, only as a widget. At first I thought it didn't install properly because I couldn't find it in the apps list.

TF300 getting JB today

I applaud your unbridled optimism Sir.
ASUS hinted at this yesterday on FB. Their post "When Mr. Jellybean is in the office, it means something good is coming."

I've learned from the TF101 ICS update - be careful what you wish for!!! For those that don't know, my (and others) TF101 has basically become very un-reliable since they introduced ICS.
While I truly *hope* we don't have such issues with the Jelly Bean upgrade, I certainly don't have a lot of confidence in Asus at this point.
I just hope that they don't rush it and test it properly before releasing it and forcing the upgrade on us (which is exactly what they did with the ICS update on the TF101).
I do know that my TF700 has some of the same ICS issues that the TF101 had (OpenGL out of memory errors, for example, which causes your launcher to go "blank")....

It looks like they are using 3.x.x kernel on JB, someone can confirm this?

Great! Very exciting news to wake up to!
When Firmware actually starts dropping DON'T FORGET TO!!
*Side load your FLASH PLAYER. If you want flash. It will no longer show up in the Playstore any longer
*Revert back whatever modding/altering to system files just in case Rooters. Only if you want your OTAS to actually complete. Or if running a custom rom it wouldn't work anyways as you already know.
*Don't forget to backup your Root with Voodoo Ota Rootkeeper! You will definitely lose root if you don't
Time to obsessively check every 5 minutes for the update!!!

*sighs* I want all my devices to run Jellybean today, here is to hoping it will happen.
As I'd normally recommend rooting myself, I don't think it's necessary in this case. Why not just install .apk with Flash after allowing unknown sources? I believe it should suffice, although I don't know if it's any different with the JB system of permissions.
No need to root to install Flash on Jelly Bean. At least not on the Nexus 7.

I can confirm - my father just bought a Nexus 7 - I emailed the Flash app to him and he was able to install it and it worked without any rooting or anything.
He used Boat Browser (per my recommendation) - not sure about other browsers, but I assume it work with all expect for Chrome, of course...

To everyone who wants flash, the easy way is to place the apk somewhere on Dropbox/Google Drive/Physical medium and install it from there, also since this week Adobe Flash Player is not available in the Play Store. http://www.pcworld.com/article/260901/android_flash_player_rip_how_to_get_it_now_that_its_gone.html

Everyone remember to backup the files created by titanium backup themselves to a removable SD card or your PC.
As for JB, I am not sure we can expect it for the TF700 right away ... the TF300 is so similar to the nexus 7, I'm sure they only slightly modified their nexus 7 kernel.
Is it just me or does anyone else thinks it's wrong that Asus updated their cheap tablet before their flagship?

No, the tf300 probably just happened to be ready first. It would silly to make all of the tf300 wait a few days just because the tf700 wants it first lol

I tried reloading the .30 firmware by putting the zip in root of internal storage. It updated as a downgrade but I was still on job when it was done, so not sure if you can with a locked boot loader.

Do you think it is worth jumping in now? I don't have specific expectation on JB except it is the latest from google.

Just depends on your taste. You might review other upgrade post stories first to be sure. Some are flawless, some not.

THelook and feel of JB is for the most part similiar to ICS.
Their are some differences you will notice:
Animations: Some new and smooth animations that are nice. Animationa arre a minor thing but add a nice touch.
Project butter: My tablet does seem to run smoother and I have yet to have a wait/close prompt pop up. Of course I may get some, but so far it seem to have improved in that dept.
Google Now & search: This is what I wanted most. I really like the voice search, it really fast with returning answers. I wish I did a few more thens like open apps and tell me my next apointment when asked, bt I'm sure that will come with future updates. Google Now is prety neat and I'm interesting in seeing how it starts to work once I have had it a while and it can develop some patterns and give me info based off what it believes is relavent for me.
This is just an initial impression is I just updated last night and haven't really got much day to day expierance with JB, but so far so good. So far I don't really see the down side. You gain a few things and don't really lose much. Unless you have a particular app that dosen't play well wih JB yet.
Can't wait to get jellybean but I'll wait patiently for it

You could learn in these forums to root, unlock and flash ROMs; giving you an open ticket to run whatever you want on ur tablet.

If your bootloader is unlocked, you can flash whatever ROM you want from the custom recovery you installed.

You can flash anything, doesn't mean you'll be successful. The current recoveries can't support this due to different boot and kernel mods. The guys are currently trying get a fix for those on OTA JB and all. I would say sit tight and wait for conformation that Twrp or cmw can backup and restore boot from diff firmwares. I tried this and got stuck at Asus logo and couldn't boot into os. But was able to get official JB back up. So now I'm stuck on JB for now.

I'm going to guess yes, because if you try to use ICS ROM with jb bootloader / recovery... well they just don't get along

They might eventually make the partitions work, and you could potentially recover data from your backups if you needed to, but basically yes. I'm saving mine 'just in case', but honestly I already think they're wasting space

I made a super locked down master image but we loaned a few tablets to our IT guys and they got updated. So my plan now is to just update a tablet and grab the update as the new master so any tablets that come in we update and lock down again

It doesn't seem to like the higher channels, so try something on the low side, mine works even though it's on auto.
