SL101 v3.2.1 Won't Download Apps, i need help. - Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi, i'm new to sliders and this eee pad slider SL101. My gf won it at work but it's butt ugly old version (v3.2.1 honeycomb) and there's no system update available.
The main purpose of me coming here is because of this download issue im experiencing, where any app i try to download doesn't download and an error occurs.
My Build number is: HTK75.US_epad-8.6.5.13-20110925
Kernel: [email protected] #1
I've looked around but everything is scattered and not much info on this SL101.
I want to update this old version v3.2.1 to kitkat 5.1. I've looked at razorclaw root but the download link is broken and i don't want to use a TF101 rooting methods yet, and end up bricked.
Can anyone clarify what the differences or risks are, i've read that they are very similar and i've seen compatibility packs for SL101 from TF101 made programs/software. I'm not exactly sure where to go from here because seems like i can't update version without recovery to flash which i can't do until i'm rooted and im not even jellybean 4.0+ which most TF101 threads revolve around android 4.4+/5.0+.
I've downloaded the first firmware package here to update a bit but i'm unsure if this will even work. Should i go through to SOP and try to do it as explained?

Can anyone help me?

[Q] Change gTablet rom from Vegan Tab to Honeycomb

A week ago I got a gTablet from eBay and I've been very happy playing with it every day. The main reason to get this tablet was the possibility to get Honeycomb working on the device.
Now I'm ready to go forward and install a Honeycomb rom on it, but there are some issues that I can't resolve.
The first thing is the tablet came already rooted with VEGAn-TAB. Due to the fact that I have to check the bootloader version, I followed the well known instructions to do that, that is, go to Settings > About tablet > Tapu UI Version. The first problem I run into was that I don't have Settings > About tablet, I have Settings > About phone. When I tap on that option, I don't get Tapu UI Version. This is what I get:
Model number: VEGAn-TAB
Android version: 2.3.3
Baseband version: Unknown
Kernel version: 2.6.32.36-cyanogenmod root at pershoot-ubuntu #1
CPU info: ARMv7 Processor rev o (v7l)
Mod version: VEGAn-7.0.0-RC1-Harmony
Build number: GRI40
Can I infere the bootloader version from this info?
The second thing is I have to decide wich rom can I install after getting the bootloader version.
And the last issue is what is the recommended procedure to install the selected rom given the current configuration of my tablet?
I've read several guides, lots of forum posts, and I've made a great deal of searches but haven't had any luck, so I decided to post this in the hope that someone of the great devs here can help me with my task.
Any help will be very apreciated.
Doesn't matter. Honeycomb has a different structure than everything else. You need to perform code red on my website to install honeycomb. Click in signature.

That looks like vegan tab ginger edition.
Should be 1.1 BL
You should be able to drop this Honeycomb rom on it... Get the 1.1BL version. It works well. I moved from VeganTab Ginger to this just fine

I copied the BL1.1 ROM from the link you provided me to the gTab and then I followed the guide to flash it from goodintentions' website and voilà!! after a few minutes I was playing with Honeycomb. Awesome!!!
Thank you very much for your help.
I am waiting for an update as I lost bluetooth after updating to Beta 3.1. Very snappy. Which ROM are you using?
I installed yesterday. But I can not see any videos (sound only, flash 10.3 plugin). Does anybody know why?

I'm loving this Honeycomb ROM; there's no chance I'll be switching back.
Erm, on a side question, which HC rom are you using?
Is it Bottle of Smoke Honeycomb? Or gTab comb ? Honeycomb illuminate. I am now using a CM7 harmony and no idea which HC is better. I don't need bluetooth or camera, but I sure want a good stable HC

+1 for GtabComb
If your not on it, get on it. If you are and cant get flash to work then do this. Make sure adobe flash 10.3 is installed in market, then download and install Opera MOBILE browser. Flash will then work

Well, I still can't get Flash to work for everything (Flash games such as Cityville, Dungeon Overlord, CivWorld, etc).

I'm using GtabComb 3.1, you can find the link in schettj's post in the begining of this thread.
Upgrade to 3.2
A day after I flashed GtabComb beta 3.1 on my gTab, zyhong posted a new rom, beta 3.2. I would like to upgrade to this version, without having to reinstall all the apps I already have now. Any advice on how to do it? I'm planning to use Titanium Backup but I don't know what to backup (should I backup just user apps or user apps + system data)
As always, any help would be highly appreciated.

Instructions are on one of the last pages of the gtabcomb thread. Someone just asked that.

Thanks dman918, indeed there is a post about it in the gtabcomb thread. I just copied the zip file to the gtab, went to recovery mod, flashed the zip and cleared dalvik cache. After reboot, I found everything in its place.
Glad I could help! Also good to know for when the next release comes out.

[Q] TF101 and SL101 same internally?

Can anyone tell me if the TF101 from Asus and teh SL101 from Asus are identical inside?
i see a lot of comments on the TF101 and very little on the SL101 and if they are interchangable it would mean there is a lot more information out there. On the Asus site I compared the specs on both and they seem identical but I would rather someone else confirm that before I move forward.
I have downloaded ICS for TF101 and want to install it on my SL101 but not sure if it will work. Will try anyway unless someone tells me otherwise but it would be good to know in advance.
This is my machine:
Asus SL101 Eee Pad Slider
Android version 3.2.1
GPS Version V5.5.8
Wi-Fi version V5.2.65
Bluetooth version V6.24
Kernel version 2.6.36.3-00010g9a21fc1
[email protected] #1
Build Number HTK75.US.epad-8.6.5.21-20111216
MobileDock version SL101-0202
32GB SDCard
32GB External SDCard
I ahve downloaded US_epaduser9_2_17Updatelauncher.zip and unziped it to
US_epad_user-9.2.1.17.zip to put on the SDCard for update as I read on a note for TF101 users who are doing the update manually.
I have rooted the machine and have taken ROM backups and app backups so I'm ready to go but a little nervous.
Any help would be appreciated.

Need Android Revolutions 2.3.2 TF101

I've searched Google countless hours coming to dead link after dead link in attempt to find a working download for Android Revolutions HD 2.3.2. As far as I'm aware 2.3.2 is the last version that had the capability to overclock the CPU. I tried the later ICS version but found I didn't like the interface nor it's performance on the TF101 in comparison to 2.3.2
Anyone know where I can download 2.3.2? Mike1986 should keep all old roms available for download because unfortunately devices fail.

If you have asked mike already and told you no I doubt anyone else has one... That's why you back up ROMs to the PC and as for keep backups of old files it takes a lot of space and he manages several devices... You can try looking on tablet forums if you haven't check already but that's a older rom ... Your bound to run into problems
Not being rude just saying
Samsung Galaxy S3
AOKP 4.2.2 by Task650
Ktoonz Kernel w/KingBeatz
ASUS TF101
A.R.H.D ICS 3.6
Harmony Kernel w/KingBeatz
If you want to overclock, use 3.5 or 3.6 and run a custom kernel like this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1693799
Or this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1565519
Step 1 Flash it in recovery
Step 2 wipe cache and Davlik
Step 3 Profit
I'll check if I have it on my tablet's microSD, I save all rom downloads... brb
EDIT: Sorry, the earliest version I have is 3.2.1, I recommend using a kernel as Fred suggested^^
Oops.. no delete button :\
Thanks
Thanks to those who replied. Your responses helped me to figure out what to do. I ended up spending much of the day catching up because I couldn't find the Harmony Kernel. I ended up getting aggravated and decided to use RaymondFX JellyBean AOSP 5.1.0 which includes the Harmony Kernel modded for JellyBean. Frederuco thanks for suggesting the Harmony Kernel, that actually got me on the right track to a suitable solution. The instigator of this whole mess, was I couldn't get a Bluetooth keyboard to function with 3.2.3. It'd connect but even after purchasing a high rated bluetooth app, I was unable to type a word with it. Then Google uploader or whatever it was quit functioning, I couldn't upload anything. I figured a reinstall of 3.2.3 would solve but finding it to download turned into a nightmare.

[Q] Asus Transformer tf101 problems flashing

I was having issues starting up my Asus Transformer tf 101. One day my Asus Transformer tf101 would just flash the start up screen repeatedly. I found a solution on the internet on another site which worked but now my tablet has Android 3.0. I was going to post the link to this solution but I was not allowed since this was my first post. It was from justanswer. I would to have at least 4.0 if not 4.1 or 4.2. I have tried re-flashing new roms and following online tutorials but every time I do so the start up is just displayed until I turn it off or the battery dies. More specifically I have tried a couple different versions of the Nightlies and AOKP roms. This tablet originally came with Android 4.1.
Any ideas of what is happening or what I could be doing wrong?

Please install Goomanager and then Kitkass rom. You can find it in xda in an other thread.
It is a very nice rom.
