Does anyone know if and when asus is going to release 4.1?
There has been no official word but more then likely yes probably in in 3-6 months knowing the amount of times most things seem to take with asus
I think I will try to port it to the Prime if we have to wait too long until Asus release it
If you head over to RootzWiki the better site you will see a video of it running
Thanks for the quick replies. A port would be great.
Jellybean has been ported to the Asus Transformer TF300 early preview. So it should be very easy to make it to the Prime now! I'm just a little scared if i brick my Prime. Prime seems to be a lot more easy to brick than other tablets/phones

That's always my fear too lol. I never understood why asus never allowed the full decryption of the bootloader.

4.1.1 on Prime
I don't know about Asus, but the developers will have some surprises for you soon.

rayman said:
Both yes and no.
Running our bootloader + booting the image, provides a set of blobs that allows you to recovery from any brick. Combined with doing the backups we recommend, you are 100% unbrickable.
This means, that if your tablet fails while e.g. flashing a custom rom or even flashing a stock rom (more likely ), it will be possible to recover your tablet. But only if you have those files stored somewhere safely. The files are unique per-device, so you can't use someone elses.
As previously mentioned, there *is* a slight risk in doing this procedure. In practice, it's about the same risk as flashing an ASUS OTA update on a locked device.

Just a quick note to let any of you with the Serial number unknown issue like me know that the update is now available for download. It successfully applied and I know have Android 4.0.3 on my Prime. Not that I expected it to but for any that are curious it did not make my Serial number available in software.
What is your FULL build number having used this manual update?

What is the manual update procedure, please? Preferably without microSD card? If possible? Thanks.
FWIW, they also seem to have released the kernel source used for ICS.
Glad to see they are fulfilling their obligations under GPL ...
All versions there except for the german DE, well ain't I the lucky one to have bought a German model. I wonder what is so special about the German version since it takes almost a month more to release.

The config.gz might shed some light on the diffs, but suffice it to say one of them is likely to brick your prime (clue: the one that doesn't match your hw).

If you want to update, just:
1. Download the file from Asus
2. Take out the zip that's located in the zip u downloaded (DON'T unzip the second zip which has a file and folder, it should STAY in zip format)
3. Put that zip into the root of your TP - you DO NOT have to have an SD card to do this, placing it in the top-level or root folder of your prime storage (ssd) is JUST FINE.
4. Disconnect your prime if it's connected to a computer. Your Prime should have a little triangle in the notification bar - HIT THAT.
5. (If No Triangle) Restart your prime disconnected from anything but a charger and when it starts up it should have the triangle in the notification bar.
Can't wait for the bootloader to get unlocked, hopefully we'll get the attention of some talented devs! As great as it is, I think there's still a lot of potential software wise with the TFP

we already have very talented developers here. Some already making big strides in Android developement. Then you have some just waiting for bootloader to be unlocked. we already have a person also doing themes. So we good go. Of course the more developers the better. Contrary to what some might think, Prime will be huge and a very big deal when it comes to developement. Prime with Tegra3 will open the doors and make it easier for future devices with tegra3 to be developed for. Since developers will have had a head start on the Prime.
I predict Prime will have the most going on for it developement wise for the entire 2012. We have a huge headstart already. Some people already deodexing the ICS dump for other developers to get a head start checking things out so they can be ready to hit the ground running once bootloader unlocking tool drops.

Not what he is asking.
The OTA does not reset the device. All of your apps, settings, preferences, etc. were all left intact. He wants to know if this manual install does the same. I would "suspect" it would work the same as the OTA but I cannot say for sure as that was 1 real bonus to the OTA of ICS is that it left all of our hard work in place that we did setting up settings and home screens and all of that nonsense that takes hours and hours.
I'm not concerned about that. In fact, I'd prefer it nuke everything but it doesn't. It does look like it overwrites /system but all my data is still there.

How can I upgrade to .15 with an unlocked bootloader?
I'm afraid to do so because I've seen some people in this forum that bricked their TFP after upgrading with an unlocked bootloader.
I'm on .14 at the moment with root access and CWM recovery installed.
I'm in the same situation, and looking for a solution as well. Is Asus going to release .15, so we can manually apply the update?

Excelent news!!

anyone read Swedish? what are the the comments saying? yay or nay?
This is GOOD NEWS!!
As for now no one was able to download the update yet
Hmm... I wonder if OTA rootkeeper and EZ Overclock will work after the 4.1 update? Me thinks I'll be holding off until there more is learned.
Isn't Sweden included in the WW firmware releases? If so then there will now be WW, US, TW and JP firmware releases (Germany brought in to the last WW upgrade) and I would think that as posted elsewhere the upgrade is being packaged and Asus Sweden wanted something to put on facebook.
If Sweden were first with a WW release then isn't it just a case of navigating support.asus.com to get the download?

Then again if you are already on CM10, then why not just stay there?
I've been trying to update sporadically for an hour now, here in sweden, and nothing.
Guess they anounced it a bit early? I sure hope it'll become available during the day Can't wait! CM10 did wonders to my Xperia Arc, so I can only imagine how powerful the prime must feel!
It came to my mind that does the Browser2Ram affect the installation of OTA update? I don't have any other modified system files in my Prime. Root will be of course gone too when updated.
Asus Finland stated in facebook that JB is rolling out in end of the week.

Not sure what the different is, you could ask the dev Mr. Wookie.....

I just installed HB and still showing not compatible. Ah well let's hope Asus and Nvidia get us an update soon.
