Had notification for firmware update! - Asus Eee Pad Transformer Prime

Hi guys,
yesterday i watched a movie before going to bed, so after i finished watching i saw a little triangle with an exclamation mark in the notification area.
I thought yeah i deal with that tomorrow, put my prime on the charger and went to bed. Now i clicked on it but nothing happened. If i go to check for new updates in the settings he tells me nothing available.
Happened to anyone else? Bug in the matrix? Or is this an indication that the next update is coming soon?

Yeah, got mines pushed last Friday. Didnt update yet, waiting to see if it breaks root.

Same to me this morning here in the Netherlands. Clicked and nothing happened.

Are you guys currently on 9.4.2.15? If so then maybe soon there will be some relief coming!

Relief of what?

I hope there is an update to loose .15 which made my Prime unusable when on the keyboard dock!

Use Voodoo Root Keeper from the market. Was able to restore my root with one click when I got the .15 update. Didn't check for an update today yet.

T-Mo Rom Update

Just had the ROM update pushed to my device. Looks like the HTC security bug fix.
Security and performance update. Seems maybe a fit more responsive...could just be my imagination.
What the version number in the about phone software section?
Sent from my HTC_Amaze_4G using xda premium
I said it once and ill say it again, DO NOT TAKE UPDATES if you want S-off when it's available. Those same "security fixes" are probably closing any exploits for our developers to crack.
1.36.531.6
HBOOT is 1.90.0004, still from Sept 15, 2011.

how long did the update take? I keep getting the black screen with the android and a triangle with a ! in it, and nothing happens that I can see......

WRONG!
After a factory reset you'll still have the updated software.
All a factory reset does is deletes the user files in the /data partition.

Bit more battery?? It needs tons more...I am waiting to update.
Does the update allow you to root anyway with the One click method??
I don't want to screw that up... S-OFF and ON does not change to me.

There is no s=off method yet, but this will remove perm root is you have done it. Supposedly, you just need to do the perm root again.
I have blocked the update so far as I do not see an immediate need for it. I had heard that the patch is for an HTC wide venerability fix.

Should have fixed the fairly major security vulnerability in HTCLoggers.apk which let any app with Internet permission access your contacts, call logs, location tracking, etc.
This update started rolling out about a week and a half ago.. At least that's when I got it.. It was around 10Mb..

I've noticed improvement of my battery life after updating, also the phone doesn't heat up as much as before...
Not really sure what this update did in regards to battery life, but my screen transitions does seem slightly smoother when going from a full page widget to another (example: weather to calendar).
Before installing it did state the package was for "optimisation"...whatever that means

Have you changed or deleted any system files? If so that would cause it to fail. You need an unaltered system in order to update.

No system file alterations btw.

I only thought that deleting G+ for example would give you trouble updating?
I also don't like the fact that the system updater doesn't give you any clue about what went wrong.
I'll just skip this update, my tablet works fine as it is.

Software update?

We're supposed to be getting a software update correct?
If I try to search for an update I see the following screen:
http://db.tt/X7f5FukG
Then it just fades away. No "No update available" notice or anything, it just fades away.
Is this normal at all?

From what I've seen so far, they are rolling out the software update only in test markets: Salt Lake City, UT and Austin, TX. You may not be able to get the OTA until it is in wide release.
What's interesting is there is a mention today that they pulled the ISIS mention from the update. At least the version remained the same in the two press releases (2.17.605.2 710RD)

Back story:
I was able to get in before they removed unlocking so I'm actually running Hasoon2000's QX senseless rom and have TWRP installed.
I'm sitting here at work and heard my phone make a noise but wasn't paying attention. Then 10 minutes later it's in the process of rebooting itself. It tossed itself into recovery and looking at the log it tried and failed to install the ota update. I'm a little concerned that it just up and tried to install on it's own without asking (or if it did it had a timer). But either way since i'm not running stock it failed.
I'm in Idaho which no one gives a crap about, so i'd say it's global now!

It's rolling out in Seattle.

Well like i said i heard it make a noise, but it was the sound i have set for calendar reminders so i ignored it. I'm assuming that was a prompt, and it probably waited 10 minutes for a response before going for default behavior. I think the most worrying part is default behavior in this case is to auto install.
But since I'm running a custom rom it failed so no harm done... to me at least!!!!

I happened to notice mine was downloading. After it downloaded there was a pop-up warning me it was about to update. There was a 3 minute countdown and a dialog to proceed immediately or defer. I selected defer and it let me set the date and time. Set it for next week so I could see how this potential new root exploit works out.
Sent from my ARCHOS 80G9 using xda premium
I don't expect it to roll out everywhere at once but its annoying that it doesn't even show the "No New Update" message like it used to do for me. Makes me think something is wrong.

The defer is doing nothing. While Carpenter was giving up the 3 runs to Scutaro my phone went ahead and did the upgrade. Bastards.

Yeah, I see the same thing. It goes from checking to the original options. Have you disabled any system apps?

Mine popped again. I went and killed HTCDM and it hadn't bugged me yet. That might be the process to kill to stop the auto update but I can't say for sure until tomorrow.
Sent from my ADR6410LVW using xda app-developers app
Yep killing HTCDM did the trick, my phone is no longer trying to update. I also confirmed from some other posts that HTCDM is the process that checks for updates. So kill it or freeze it if the defer option isn't working (which it doesn't seem to work for anyone) or you're running a custom rom.

Yea I have a bunch of system apps disabled, but nothing that I would expect to cause an issue. I don't have root I disabled them through the apps menu in settings and I doubt they would let you disable a system app that would break updates.

[Q] A new software update is available

So this morning the Easter bunny left me a present... My AT&T LGOG says software update available. Does anyone know if the bunny dropped off Jellybeans or just another egg?
I was trying to get a screenshot of the useless message, but the update tried to install and the phone rebooted. Then the firmware update screen reported a failure. After reboot my phone still works on ICS. I'm going to take a backup now and be safe as long as the update doesn't update recovery/bootloader...
Turns out my screenshot worked after all.

Yes. Can you re-root it?
I'm on stock & rooted. Not unlocked.
Update notification went off this morning; read some of this thread; told it to let me know again in 8hrs.
Just went off again, I said ok, whatever, told it to update. It rebooted, & now it's just sitting there at the white, "rethink possible" screen.
Key combo reboot actually got it into the "software update" screen, but that then error'd at 1% complete. Error was something like, "01X03fed." It disappeared too quickly while I was typing this. Rebooted again, fully this time, and a, "Installation interrupted" warning is showing.
Hopefully the update notification will be gone, too...
