Here is a full update file for v9.4.2.11.1, courtesy of indiscriminant. It has a build date of a day later than the OTA 9.4.2.11. I don't know what is changed from v9.4.2.11. It apparently flashes, though, which means it's signed and legit.
Be warned that OTA Rootkeeper probably won't work if you update this way, and as of Jan 19, there is no new root method.
To use it:
1) Download US_epad-user-9.4.2.11.1-20120118-1535-UpdateLauncher.zip
2) Extract US_epad-user-9.4.2.11.1-20120118-1535-UpdateLauncher.zip to get US_epad-user-9.4.2.11.1.zip
3) Copy US_epad-user-9.4.2.11.1.zip to the root of the Prime's internal storage (as it appears to a PC; the real path being /mnt/sdcard/)
4) Disconnect from the PC/reboot the device and you should see the update notification in the lower-right-hand corner.

Interesting.
It seems to have a bunch of differences, as you can see in the contents link above.
But yes, this is the update from a couple hours ago with the new GPS version.
Just updated mine on my rooted prime. I'm surprised it worked. I lost root but that's okay. No significant change that I can see.

If you've already done the Update via your Phone you have this already.
Although I'd encourage you not to update your device until a fully unlocked s-off solution is available.

no point installing this if you already did the 2 OTA updates that were released last week (one system, one software). this is just a complete system/rom/hboot/radio etc package that includes everything that has been released so far.

nothing, so don't use it (ok, well the OTA on the phone includes just the updated stuff, not the whole shabang. this is the whole shabang). this is mainly for devs to use to cook up ROMs. you could use it if your phone would not boot, and you had to reinstall everything. otherwise right now there is no good reason to use this.
Thank you!
For some reason, my 3D wouldn't see the update to 1.12 or 1.13...it came with 1.11.
Man, I wouldn't update if I had S-OFF in an S-ON world... But thats me...
Cool deal...will wait on it
Yeah, I wouldn't update either...
Does anyone have a change log? Curious...
So I just installed this and am getting an OTA. Has there been another OTA, since the original 2? Or, is this missing one of them? Says it's for lockscreen and Watch...
EDIT: I'm dumb...just app updates.
found this..might help...

Could someone unpack the .img files please?
there is a new FW update available, installig now I will report later. I'm in mexico.
UPDATE
is official version 9.4.2.15. update was without problems, GPS seems to be the same (useless in door) everything else works fine, I will continue testing.
If anyone can find me the zip file of this firmware ...
Need it since I can't OTA because it reboots before finishing the "First configuration" steps
Thank you
Here we go again...lol. I'm always one of the first on these posts..ill check now. I was running the beta .15 build. Time for the official one now
Edit: says no update available yet. Might not have hit east coast yet. Post a screenshot of your about tablet of info. Or post what version it says you on now.
No Issues So Far (fingers crossed)
Installed without issue. Lost root restored with OTA RootKeeper.
EDIT: I've seen at least one "helpful" response to my post so I wanted to clarify the I lost root doing the update BUT I restored it with OTA RootKeeper.
UPDATE: No discernible improvement in GPS. Still nonexistent since .13. Everything else seems fine.
UPDATE 02/25/12: Maybe it was the weather yesterday but this morning I picked up 11 sats in my den and locked on 4. Woohoo!
Can confirm it. USA, NY. OTA update, Build #epad-9.4.2.15-20120221

Be careful! We had a few people brick their prime after trying to flash an official Asus rom/update after unlocking. Plenty of threads on it. I would just wait til virtuous rom updates. Check out the other threads on issue. You don't want to risk bricking your device.
Also in Canada..installing right now.
updated and root restored with rootkeeper
Sent from my Transformer Prime TF201 using xda premium
I wonder I'd the people who running beta .15 build will even get this update. It looks like exact same build number. So if nothing else changed then we already on latest build. Can someone who received official OTA post a screenshot to see if anything has changed? Or if someone was running the beta build post if you still received the new OTA.
Can someone post a list of the driver versions so we can see what changed? I think this is just a continuation of the random-reboot fixes, but I'd like to know if any of the wireless drivers were updated.
..so what do we do now?
Reset by clearing just data and apps, or using the "magic hole" and make a complete reset?
A link to this 15 fw would be nice when possible.
Great! just updated, looked like it is going smoother!
Just ran Quadrant benchmark to test if it goes a bit faster or slower
score is : 3834, is it me or has it gotten slower?
Got the .15 installing now in St Louis...
Only just found out this morning that, while my GPS works most of the time, and wireless works fantastically, BT doesn't see anything at all... maybe I'll get lucky and this will fix that.

Gosh unbelievable!!!!!!
Unlocked ? Your device is not an Asus device anymore!
You agreed this when unlocking your device! Didn't you read the agreement ?
You can't install any ASUS firmware update anymore: OTA, manually, or any other method you could imagine !
The only way is to have a system dump, or uncompress/extract the blob file, pick the modified files and include them in a ROM or make an update zip for unlocked devices I guess. I don't have skills for that perhaps someone will do that.
Here is my screenshot from beta .15 build I installed last night. Looks identical to screenshot of new OTA update.
Greetings. NO, there is no download to the OTA ICS update yet.
However, this is a quick thread I'm throwing out there to see if anybody else is currently working on this. Someone, perhaps, with more experience working with OTA updates.
I'm currently downloading the last Stock rooted rom, which should then recieve the OTA notification.
My plan is then to set up a logcat to output to file, have the back cover off, and when I see the download complete, pull battery USB and boot back to recovery, where I should then hopefully be able to pull the new OTA.
While I'm waiting for the download, I'd just like to make sure I'm not wasting my time.
Also, it would be nice to see if anybody else thinks this is a good method, or if I'm a total idiot.
Got about 20 left before I can go, so comments would be greatly appreciated.
Can't you just use a file manager once the download is complete and copy it to your computer? I thought it saves to your "download" folder..don't think you need to do the battery pull and all that
Pretty sure all you need to do is download the update, and before you click on install, just mount your sdcard to your PC and copy the update. It's that easy.

Well, this download for stock is taking forever. Anybody running a stock rom can try this?
once u get it are you going to root/busybox/deodex?
PG86IMG Complete zip?
so hboot, radios, update, etc? or maybe one with removed HBOOT?
If i knew what i was doing i would lol
Works fine. Just plug it into a computer once you're finished downloading, navigate to the download folder, and copy the ota zip to your computer if you want to mess with it. (Or use a file manager on your phone to copy it to a different location)
I will attempt to restore stock rom and download OTA for your use.

Maaaaaaybe. Although TBH, that can be accomplished using kitchen and 10 minutes. My primary desire for it is because I support MIUI, and our version is currently based on ShooterU. Having OG Sprint stuff would help us greatly to implement wimax.

Someone with a stock Springboard has to catch the OTA update URL in order to let us analyze what's in the zip. Depending on which files are full images and which are patch files, that will determine what needs to be done in order to flash a Springboard from the MediaPad ICS firmware.
If it's like other OTA zips for this unit, it will contain a full set of radio files but some of the system files might be present as patches. If someone can post the URL to that zip I will try flashing just the radio part to see if that stabilizes the radio on my tab.
If we're lucky, the ICS upgrade will be such a radical overhaul that it will include full images of everything we need in the zip.

Hey guys, I recently won a T-Mobile SpringBoard, and I quiet like it. When I got the device I went to System - About Tablet - System Updates (Google), and it said there was an update. So I made it download the update and install it. But it was just a newer version of Honeycomb. For a little over a week now I've been trying to get the Ice Cream Sandwich update but the thing just says the tablet is up to date.
Is T-mobile doing a slow roll out of the update or something? I'm not a T-mobile customer, but I don't think that matters since it did do one over the air update already.
Any clue what's the deal?
Thanks!

Are you sure it's for an upgrade to ICS?
Download alogcat and filter for the text: http://
It should show up somewhere in the log once you have received the update notification. Please post a screenshot of the notification too.
Just for comparison this is the URL of the update from "older Honeycomb" to "newer Honeycomb":
http://android.clients.google.com/packages/ota/huawei_springboard_mediapad/009e6fd7c5ce.update.zip
I would assume this URL would take a similar form.
springboard ota link
android.clients.google.com/packages/ota/huawei_springboard_mediapad/60e76c721562.update.zip
How do install it

so downloaded zip how do I install it?
yeah I got the same problem, downloaded file but no idea how to open it
- on your external Storage create a folder 'dload' put the downloaded file in this folder and rename the file to 'update.zip'
- power off (completely!) your device, press 'Vol+', hold it, and press power
- hold 'Vol+' until the green Android appears. It should start updating

New to the springboard and glad to have come across a site that has some information on it. I have been waiting for the update for a couple days now, I also downloaded the update zip that was posted a few posts up. When you say "external" storage, are you referring to an SD card? And I am assuming this can be done on a factory springboard? I would rather do this than wait for the OTA to hit my device. Thanks for your help, this is an awesome forum.
Could somebody with the TW ROM post the JB dlpkgfile?
Many thanks!

I couldn't find anyone with it, but here's the solution http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=32156572#post32156572
First you're supposed to flash an official blob (either WW or US version,it doesn't matter), then proceed to download the corresponding JB update and you're good to go!
Notes;
You don't need to be unlocked but you need root and busy box installed
There's always a risk of bricking your device following anyone of these procedures
Remember to have your root backed up using Voodoo

The only problem with flashing a different SKU is that you'll never be able to receive OTA updates again...
If ASUS doesn't do anything about the update problem in the next few days, though, I'll switch anyway. I've tried re-flashing the TW .28 ROM, data wipe, rerooting and unrooting after backing up SU, and clearing DMClient and CMClient caches, all to no effect. I always end up with the "Failed to download the file" error.

Well... That's what came to mind but whenever an update comes someone would probably have it posted up on xda (mostly WW and US) and changing the SKU would just mean that we'd get better compatible support since the WW and US versions are more widespread
On a side note I got the dock update as soon as I docked my keyboard after 4.1 :fingers-crossed: so that doesn't completely rule out the possibility that we wouldn't be supported with anymore Asus updates

Thanks lineager. Unfortunately for me, my Prime started to download the OTA update hours earlier, and thinking based on other users' posts that OTA Root Keeper would be up to the task, I just let the regular update process proceed. Found out the hard way that it only could restore partial root. So I actually got punished for doing it the Asus way, instead of using dlpkgfile... I have seen the thread of restoring full root, but I don't have the knowledge to understand it. I'd just be parroting it step by step, hoping I didn't make a mistake...
Sucks because I pretty much need root to use apps like Facebook or Twitter here in China (because I need to use a VPN app to get around the Great Firewall). Ah well, at least I can use this dlpkgfile to help one of my Chinese Prime-owning friends.

would it be possible for you to re-up the TW JB DLPKGFILE?
Thanks

You might be lucky like me if you used OTA Root Keeper before the update. I used the method described by member thenrz in his thread "For those with 'partial root after JB update - regain root!", and it worked fine (though I had a heart attack at step 18a, which turned out not to be necessary for my machine). Now my Prime is fully rooted and should still be able to receive any future OTA updates. I hope that method works for you.
What a tech nightmare this has been, though. Not only did it take me days to download the OTA update, I spent a whole day trying to get root back -- the thenrz method wasn't the first one I tried. I tried repeatedly to downgrade back to .28 so that I could root/backup and use the dlpkgfile, but always failed. My mind was blown when manually pushing files worked on my first try -- it was like Murphy's Law was being violated.
I was using Android's built-in VPN support last year, but the government started blocking the commonly used PPTP and L2TP protocols, and so I have been using a free VPN app (DroidVPN) for a year now. Thanks for reminding me though, I just checked and JB has some new VPN settings that I will give a try.
