When Will TF300 Get Jelly Bean?

Im sorry if this has already been asked but I am on the fence of buying a tablet for work and ive narrowed it down to the Nexus 7 and the TF300. Im 99.9% sure I am going to be buying the TF300 ($100 more than the 16GB N7, but it has 2x the memory, 10", mHDMI out, and sdCard, no brainer). However I was wondering how the updates are from ASUS and when we could expect Jelly Bean?

Asus tends to be on top of things when it comes to updates in a timely manner. Although I wouldn't base your decision soley on jelly bean. As with any android version update, there are going to be bugs and app compatibility issues that has to be ironed out at first. Then android manufacturers have to tweak the source code and kernels to work with their roms. Then they have to iron out the bugs then. Any products of 2012 will most likely see jelly bean eventually. Newest isn't always the best. Especially when it comes to OS and software.

The N7 will be the priority for the short term. Once sales tail off then they can focus on the T700. They'll get to us promptly but not a priority. Yes, just IMO....

I understand the hype with jellybean. But when did ICS become an old outdated OS?

put it this way
ICS is to JB what Vista was to Win7
(on most devices)
and that is the problem with Android, too many versions out at the same time that work perfectly well on the devices they are installed on

As soon as I loaded it on my Galaxy Nexus.
ICS is great, but JB is waayyyy better, imo.

I would think that since the Nexus 7 was built by Asus that they would have a leg up on getting updates out. Especially since they stick close to vanilla on their roms

Android 4.1 Source now in AOSP
Jelly Bean source is being released today to AOSP Per Jean-Baptiste Queru the Technical Lead for the Android Open Source Project at Google...

What's replacing flash?

Nothing is replacing Flash. Flash doesn't need to be replaced. It needs to die and be forgotten. If your favorite websites still use Flash instead of proper HTML5, they need to get with the times and dump the resource- and bandwidth-hogging abomination known as Adobe Flash. E-mail them, and let them know that they need to update their $#!t.

I'm new here and an android newbee. I purchased an Asus tf300t a few day ago and have been reading up on all the cool ways it can be modded.
I've already rooted and overclocked it.
Is there a way that I can install JB on it as it's already rooted?

Yea when it comes out u will be able to update with no problem...or u could just flash a 4.1 Rom

Once rooted, can it be upgraded via the official method (from Asus)? I just bought TF300 and waiting for it in the mail, so excited

Yes, a rooted TF300T can still receive OTAs. But you may lose root access after applying it, so use VooDoo OTA RootKeeper to backup.

***Update!***
Sorry I've not been active much in the thread but I've been busy trying to get more working on this rom, Ive had wallpaper fixed for over a week, and today thanks to an assist from jaybob413 audio is working without the need of hot plugging a headset! This will probably be the last release of this as I will move this to baked soon, but hey you never know.

Been running 4.2 on my nexus since it was released and it is pretty nice.

i'm really excited about this and can't wait :fingers-crossed:

Just flashed this rom and then done a backup using twrp, a word of warning when you do a backup 4.2.1 creates a a new folder on your internal sdcard named 0.
I have a Galaxy Nexus phone and when I updated from 4.1 to 4.2 I had the same problem so twrp released an update to resolve the problem
I am using twrp 2321 on my phone and I have twrp 2310 on my tablet.

Good job. I've been buried with work the past 3 days, I have gotten almost no deving done. Funny how things get in the way

This is exciting!!!!
Dasunrule: Do not sweat it too much dude. The last CM10 Nightly that you left us for the TF700 the other night is more than enough to keep us held over until 4.2.1 becomes just a BIT more stable! I am running the last nightly with NO Clemysn kernel or other mods and am having ZERO issues that could kill performance per-say :good: to both of you!

Surprisingly polished for an "alpha".
Only problems I see are the lack of live wallpapers and user accounts.
I think I'll alternate between this one and cm.

Wallpaper didn't work for me, also hdmi out worked with no sound.

This is the case with pretty much every device regardless. My guess would be that proprietary drivers are the issue.
Awesome man! I love your work (writing this from a BBB'ed GNex) and can't wait to get home and flash this and follow the progress. You have a donation coming your way on payday.

Nice. :good: :good: :good: How long do you think until cm 10.1 releases with android 4.2.1 support?

Just flashed this ROM and just wanted to say thank you for one, for two this 4.2 layout is so awesome I personally love it. With that said this ROM is in alpha and definitely an up in coming ROM I hope. As of right now its not stable enough for a day to dayuse . Keep up the good work!

Glad to see you are continuing your work on this. I will flash this and give you some feedback thanks again for the hard work.

T hank you. I Really enjoy using your ROM. It has been a driver for since two days and it has been pretty stable. There is one flaw which bothers me though: there is no audio over HDMI.
I hope that you keep up the good work and keep this supported

sorry for the noob question, but what exactly do that mean? it not backwards compatible? ( as in not able to run old apps?)

General stuttering and lagginess

I just got this tablet and am running Stock 4.1.1 android. I have unlocked and root my device. Although I have noticed that occasionally the tablet stutters or is a little laggy. Coming from my Nexus 4 I do not have no lag or stutter issues.
Is the Nexus 4 really that much faster?
Does the 4.2.1 update fix the lag on the tf300?
Is the stock ROM(4.1.1) just not optimized and would go to a custom ROM fix or help with the lag?
I assumed that the tegra 3 would give similar performance to what I get with my Nexus 4, which is very quick and pretty much never has any stutter or lag issue, but maybe the Nexus 4 is really that much faster. Any thoughts or suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks.

I've read that performing a factory reset has fixed this issue for some people. Is there any issues with performing a factory reset on an unlocked rooted tf300t? Would I have to reroot the tablet?

CleanROM is a good choice because it's regularly updated and based off stock Asus firmware. However, when I used to use it in the past there were issues with using custom high-performance kernels cause it broke the ability to use my front camera (not good :thumbdown. So now I'm using CM10.1, on the official nightlies and its the best experience so far.. latest stock 4.2.2 android, full dock support and everything works as intended. Plus, I think there's been a performance kernel for CM10.1 released in the dev section just recently. Take a look!

Front facing camera was fixed a long time ago with kernel modules. Newest version that will be out soon based on 4.2.1 is based from the Asus 10.6.1.8 source for the TF300 so everything will work correctly

Yeah I think I may jump onto CleanROM again, now that I'm using linux I'll need stock based roms.. have an idea for 4.2.1 OTA? And would we need to be on the new bootloader/kernel?

I had the same Problem with my TF300T ago, but after a few days of using the lags were gone (Im on official 4.2.1 not rooted). So i would use it for a few more days and see what happens

[ROM][4.2.2][CM10.1/PA] Jellybam

I didn't post this in the development section because I didn't make this rom and I am not affiliated with Jellybam. I just found this when searching around goo.im...
So it looks like we have a new, very cool rom for our device, which virtually no one seems to be using based on their download stats. It is a CM10.1 - Paranoid Android hybrid that has many cool features that I haven't seen on any other rom, certainly for this device.
Rather than me explaining all the features and writing this post like I own the rom (I don't!) you can check out the features here
And you can download it here:

Ok, I will test that too.

Well first impressions are good rom loads up ok and runs like CM10.1 When you go into settings you will be amazed at the amount of options you have to play with. I highly recommend this rom it is really worth flashing and trying it for your self. :good:

[Q] IS CM stable worth to install?

Hi there mates,
I finally decided to dump the stock ROM and give it a try on custom one.
After reading a bit i think i'm starting to like Cyanogen, but since i want a good stable ROM i appreciated some opinions form anyone who is using it.
1st and really important: my stock ROM does not have any of the know issues (deep sleep probs, random reboots, battery drains etc...) so anyone know if CM 9.x stable have any of this issues?
2nd does everything work? In the CM forums i found no one complaining with "loosing" functionality's but i would like to ear from anyone that uses this on a daily basis. (i found a lot of people complaining with encryption problem and bad flashing but not about Wifi radio, camera, etc...)
3rd: Is this the best choice to use on a daily basis? Or there is a better/more stable/more fluid Rom?
Thanks to all.

Most of the CM 10.x ROMs are pretty stable and usable. I am a fan of the KatKiss ROMs. 4.2.2 has the best functionality, but the 4.3 variant is not bad. The only thng that does not work for me is camera on Skype.

Hmmm, if I did it was a while ago. CM 9 is based on ICS. I have not run an ICS ROM for more than a few hours in over a year. I would say that the Jelly Bean based ROMs (CM10.X) feel SO much faster due to project butter. I flashed back to stock ICS a bit ago, and it feels so sluggish.
Most of the threads on CM 10 you can see how stable they are. I know the No-Name CM 10.1 is rock solid. Joesteink has moved on, but the ROM is still rock solid and many users swear by it.

Is CM finally stable? I had it installed a year or so ago, but then it was still beta for the transformer. Since then I used various flavors and eventually stayed with the EOS-build. Very stable with all the options I ever need (like overclocking and gouvenor-changing). I'm still using EOS, since it's stable and performing very well. Katkiss seems to be the continuation of it, so you could try it yourself And if you don't like it, then you drop it for something else
