Is the Trasformer TF700t still on Jelleybean? - Asus Transformer TF700

Is the Transformer TF700t still on Jellybean or has Asus finally upgraded it to Kit Kat?

JB 4.2.1 is the latest Asus firmware. But there are plenty of KitKat custom rom options.

Asus. Update it to Kitkat. Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha. Yea, as if!
Contracts between Google and the companies only span 18 months per device. The TF700T was released Juli 2012. That's 24 months.

My thinking was that it was more a result of the Tegra 3 internals rather than being past the 18 month time period. But I could be mistaken.

I'm in Sydney using TF101 WW Version
Not getting any OTA yet
should be done at 2th Aug

Just unlocked :)

Wow what a difference it makes!
I was running happily on stock but getting impatient waiting for jb. Anyway in a few moments I unlocked, installed twrp recovery and installed Zeus v4 lite.
Restored all my apps from tibu and one reboot to make sure.....
It's nice and smooth, lite, zippy and I can't believe I have waited this long. If you are thinking of doing it what are you waiting for?

better yet, buy squaretrade warranty and unlock it. i was happy with my infinity but got to admit, zeus rom run 2x better and smoother. I cannot go back to stock.
Agree completely - Zeus ROM runs so much better than stock that I really think it's worth it to unlock. If you are worried about the warranty, just get a SquareTrade warranty - they are much better than Asus factory warranty coverage anyway (which, from my understanding, is absolutely horrible)...

I have to completely agree with you on this. I hesitated bit I read too many good things about the Zeus rom. I have been more than completely satisfied and have never looked back

Unlocking was the best thing I ever did for this tab...its faster, gets better battery life, and is just a lot more fun to use....if anyone isn't 100% happy with it and haven't unlocked it yet then its a no brainer....root...unlock...and install Zeus.

All you zeus lovers need to try out the stock deodexed rom for awhile.
Nothing against zeus, its great but just not quite there yet
Also browser to ram, system tuner and set cpu all help get this tablet flying.

Interesting - now I'm curious - I can't imagine getting much better performance in ICS than I do with Zeus, but I may just have to try it now!
Have you ever ran Zeus 4.0?
Has anyone else ran both Zeus 4.0 and the ROM that @lafester speaks of? If so, any performance comments?
Thanks.
EDIT: @lafester - I can't seem to find the version of this ROM that has the tweaks added (I do see the original). Do you have a link to it?
Thanks!

Yes I was zeus3 for awhile before I tried this one. Flashed zeus4 and the difference is not great but noticeable so I went back.

Look into getting a SquareTrade warranty - that way if you do brick your tablet, you'll be covered! They aren't that much money - with a discount code, I got a 2 year plan (which includes the optional coverage in case I would break the glass, drop it in a swimming pool, etc) for about $80! Can''t beat that for total piece of mind!

Can I still get square trade warranty if my tablet is more than a month old?
Sent from my ASUS Transformer Pad TF700T using Tapatalk 2
It depends where you bought it. If you bought it at a retail store, I believe that you have up to 90 days to buy a SquareTrade warranty. If you bought it off of Ebay, I think you only have 30 days.

4.2 when ?

When Asus will release 4.2 update ?
I doubt it's gonna be on this side of New Year, but one can only hope. We might see custom ROMs using it before that.
Ah, I was wondering when we have the first one like this
I am afraid that 4.2 is the last one hour Infinity will get. Asus will be focusing on their new products where they (I hope) stop being cheap on NAND drives. They totally screwed this tablet over by being cheap on some small part which doesn't cost anything.
Anyway if this tablet will get 5.0 and above updates also, then Asus did some small positive surprise for me.

If you watch even the original transformer its gotten updates to ICS, i am completely confident that there will be updates for the prime and infinity to at least JB, if not further. Asus may not be great on their QA but they do update their devices. Maybe not as fast as Google, but we will see updates into the future.

Seriously? The TF300 had Jelly Bean before we did, and it's older and lower-range than the TF700. D'you seriously think they'll ditch their flagship Android device within 4 months of its release? Especially considering Asus was the second one to release JB to the previously mentioned devices, after Samsung (Samsung bought the solitary rights for the first three months, or we would've had it sooner.).

[Q] would you buy it now?

I have a chance to purchase a new in box TF101 and keyboard dock for less than $300.
I currently have an SGS3 on JB and a touchpad running ICS. The touchpad runs fine, 2 day battery life and does pretty much everything i want, i'm just wondering if this transformer would be a good upgrade.
IMO, I wouldn't spend that kind of money on any Tegra 2 device. Tegra 2 is getting very old, and Tegra 4 devices are coming out. My TF is still a capable device, but the technology is old.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda premium
I love my TF101 and dock, but for $300, I would not spend the money. You can get a 32 GB Nexus 7 (quad core) for $250.
Heck, a used/refurb TF300 isnt much more than $300 if you look for some deals.

I just looked, November 21 woot.com had the TF300T 16 GB with dock for 305 shipped.
It is not around every day for that price, but if you are patient and keep looking, you should be able to find the keyboard and tablet for 300-400.

300 is a bit steep in my books too but then again I have 2 that i am fighting with family to get time on them. before EOS4 rom there was no fight but thanks too all them briliant minds working on that rom I am looking for another one as well. mainly cause I cant convince the boss that Im worth 500 to 600 for a new device lol.
SO.... im sure i would pop out 250 if i could find one with a dock
Would do perhaps for $225 +/- 25 if I wanted a 10" tablet and definitely wanted the dock and was on a budget. If you want a 7" tablet and/or don't care about the dock, there are other options to consider.
It also depends on what you want to do with it.

Mind.... timduru deserves the full credit for the work on that rom right now. With that said, he's close to the only guy working from a development level on this tablet right now so I feel the days are numbered on this hardware platform.

That is sooo true! Timduru has brought the EOS4 rom to a very stable state. From my point of veiw there are only 2 very minor issues that most wouldnt even notice. other than those every thing just works and smoothly too.
You can see all the hours of work Timduru has put in and he has improvements rolling out almost daily :good:
**edit** should say its EOS4 with KAT kernal that are running so well
Thanks to everyone for the info, i've decided to pass, if you are a sams club member and in sioux falls, sd it was $260 last i checked (their number if you want to try and have them ship it 605-362-0119) go right ahead it was there on saturday.
I did manage to pick up a tf700 return from them for $217 w/o the dock, but my wife has made that off limits as it will be a graduation present for her middle child so i'm sticking to my touchpad on 4.04 for now.
