HD 7 can't go for kitkat or any other new android versions because its hardware doesn't support that :crying:

What about rooting it and flashing the OS. Is that possible?
I'd hate for this to be like my old galaxy s infuse, and have no updates. buyiong an android device is so risky, you never know when the device maker is going to just stop supporting it because they released a new version.

You won't be able to use the updates from TF700T since that device is pretty different from TF700KL (Tegra3 vs Krait S4, wifi vs LTE etc).
I also have the TF700KL and I don't think we will see too much development going on, since there are very few people that have one.
My hopes are that ASUS will release the JB update (as kind of promised) and a bootloader unlocking tool (the TF700T unlocking app does not work). Then it's just a matter of building CWM for it. I haven't been able the get a hold of the stock recovery image for the TF700KL, since I don't have root.
We'll see what happens. At this point it's in ASUS hands...

Very quiet from the Asus front. Have sent them a query about JB and root and after three days they closed it without replying.
Jelly Bean is here but I am having trouble updating it as it does not find the file even though it is on the external sdcard

[Q] Upgrading to jelly beans manually

Hello guys.
I'm sorry for the noob questions, but I'm very new to the Android world.
I just bought an Asus TF700T and I decided to root it.
This wasn't possible as my device had JB installed, so I decided to downgrade it to ICS with a method that could keep it locked.
After that I rooted it without any problems
First of all my first question is this:
Is it normal that my tablet now is full of chinese applications? I downloaded the firmware from the asus site so I'm just wondering why it is like that and how to fix it
Also is it normal that I don't have the google play store application installed?
After this I wanted to know the correct steps to upgrade it again to JB keeping the root at the same time
Thanks a lot
Sounds to me like you flashed the Taiwanese firmware.

ye you are totally right...
I'm trying to install the WW version now.
Anyway after I installed it and rooted it how can I update to the latest version of JB?
thanks
Edit: I tried to download Root Keeper and to update it to JB, but the root is gone
So I'm stuck at the upgrading part
You need to install voodo before you update to JB, save the root and then temp un-root it.
If that doesn't work as easily as that (which it didn't in my case) then follow this guide

That worked great for me

[Q] [XOOM 2] A question for ROM of XOOM2

As I have a XOOM 2 running Android 4.0.4, I'm searching for further update for this device.
I found that the EOS Team has released Android 4.1.2 nightly build for XOOM, but not the XOOM 2 version.
Actually I haven't seen any 4.1.2 build for XOOM 2. So I want to ask,
can I use XOOM rom on the XOOM 2? if Not, is there any stable room for XOOM 2 in the entire forum?
if there is, i hope that you will send me a link of the thread.
thx for your help!
No
I Dont know much about the xoom 2 but the bootloader was never unlocked therefore no custom roms thats why theres no dev support

I've recently received a Xoom 2 but it's running 3.2.2 , You've updated it or it was the original version came from the company?
another interesting matter is that I've not seen any motorola device managers that support Xoom 2!

Tablet is upgradeable directly from Motorola to version 4.0.4 (versions can be checked e.g. https://motorola-global-en-uk.custhelp.com/app/software-upgrade-news/g_id/1994). Some time ago in some language version there were not clearly stated, that 4.0.4 would be the last version for Xoom2, but now it seems that it is.
Device manager at least for US version: https://motorola-global-portal.custhelp.com/app/answers/prod_detail/a_id/78644/p/7901,8197

The Motorolla Defy has locked boot loader but can flash custom ROM's via 2nd init another device xt910 uses another form.
I think the device was just not owned as many due to XOOM.

Unlocking, Rooting, and ROM's question
I'm new with Tablets forgive me if this is a stupid question but is there possably any way to use one program to unlock and root or just root the Asus TF300T without messing with the ROM on version 4.2.1 android jelly bean? The reason I ask is bc I'm use to doing things and rooting on my droid razr and for that all you need is razr utility. So basically is there a utility out there or wil there be one in the future for my Asus TF300T like something thats simple and your rooted? please somebody let me know it I'm dieing to get this TF rooted.

[Q] Possible to flash stock honeycomb to tf300t

Hi, I have a Asus TF300t and unlocked the boot loader and installed CM11 M6.
I was hoping to know if anyone has flashed the official honeycomb operating system back on the tablet. Is it possible? It seems honeycomb is a bit faster. I wanted to try it out.
Thank you.

I don't think that it is possible, or at least I haven't heard of going back that far. People generally have trouble flashing back to ICS, which was what the device was released with. I don't think a Honeycomb ROM exists for the tf300t since it was before.
