Make sure to back up your root with voodoo. If you don't, you will end up like me, Rootless..lol
New firmware has no root method and you can no longer downgrade. You've been warned!

No love for my WW in Canada.

Maybe I am mistaken, but the update seems overall faster. Faster in the browser and throughout the UI

Had notification for firmware update!

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.

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.

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.

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.

Asus Transformer prime TF201 - rebooting after every 30 mins on JB update

My Asus Transformer prime TF201 is rebooting after every 30 mins on JB update. I am sick of it. !!!
Any way to roll back to ICS ? or solution on this?
I've heard that if you do a factory reset it should help that. Sucks but it might be one way. As fas as I know u need unlocked boot loader and the right files to be able to go back k to ICS. I'm on JB and rolling smooth.

My TF201 has also been rebooting regularly since I upgraded to Jelly Bean. It usually happens when no other activity is taking place. I have seen other posts that say that the hard reset does not fix the problem. Has anyone gotten through to ASUS? I have called and emailed them to no avail so far.
I also have had this problem after upgrading. Not found a solution to it.

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!

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.

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.

Youtube app no full screen..

Hey everyone, happy holidays . so today i noticed that when i docked my prime to the keyboard and went into the youtube app the fullscreen button didnt show up! i undocked it and BAM there it is, dock it again there it goes. anyone else having this problem? and is there a solution?
Thanks
Mine does the exact same thing. Must be a bug in the application.

It's a problem with the YouTube app. It works just fine if the tab is undocked (not in the keyboard dock).
I think all of the transformer devices have this issue at the moment. It'll get fixed
If its really bugging you revert to the original app by uninstalling the update in the app management settings

I'm having the same **** with my UG007 Android TV stick.. Very annoying, should get an old apk somewhere as I don't have any older versions installed on the system..
Google search 'youtube 4.1.47 apk' to download a good version that works in full screen.
It is there, but you have to undock and sometimes rotate to get it to show up. It is a bug, I'm sure it'll be fixed.

I've only been using my TF recently for YouTube and imagine my dismay when I finally upgraded to JB 4.2.1 tonight and found the full screen option missing.
After a quick look I discovered that it's not a bug, it's a feature that was added.
Not to worry though, here's a version to try out with the feature disabled. :fingers-crossed:
I take no responsibility for this if it breaks something.
Thanks all for the comments and suggestions and wait what 4.2.1??
