Nothing as of yet until now (12.40 PM, 27.09) and I keep checking sporadically....
Has anyone else had the update yet, here in Finland? Or if anyone sees it come out, please do drop in a word to give a heads up.
Thanks in advance. Cheers...
Edit: PS., I understand its probably not necessary to have another JB thread.. but its just a bit difficult to pick out any news / info regarding the update roll-out in Finland specifically from the other bigger threads.
Nothing here
Sent from my Desire HD using Tapatalk 2
Not sure is a yet another JB-thread necessary.
Anyway, nothing here too.
Nothing here in Slovenia and Norway either. So I am guessing none of the WW-devices has gotten it yet. We will just have to be patient and hope it won't take too many hours of biting nails while waiting.
Why dont you read the other topics? JB is only for sweden and USA right now. it will pop up in the next days for other countries (asus words not mine!) i hope soon tho!

I just checked the swedish page on FB, and people complained less than an hour ago that the update is still not available for them.. so I would say only the USA.
:banghead:
Nothing for Europe again. F***ck you, ASUS!
Download some vpn changer from play store and use that to download it from USA servers. While you do that I'm gonna just sit and wait for a custom version

Well, from what I saw from the other thread where this 'option' was mentioned, I understood that this is for people who have the TF201 from US but who are now physically outside of the US!!!
Meanwhile, I think the update will roll out here in Finland possibly tomorrow (28 Sep)...
Edit: Called up Asus Finland and I was told it hasn't been released here yet. When I pressed on about when it would be released, the guy said "I have to ask Google because they are releasing the Jelly Bean update...." what the...? Anyway, so... it's not here yet. Guess we just have to wait.
So asus sweden finally woke up and had posted that some users could be getting the update already now (although I have not seen any such reports), while some might have to wait for a full week .
Seems like pretty much all the american users have gotten the update by now though, so for them it went pretty fast, so I think it seems strange if they are going to spend a week gradually rolling it out here.
I'm going to Sauna with my Sandels, check again later!:good:
We really don't need another JB thread...

Thanks for the info, there is another thread with the same update though for the UK sku it looks like. Great to see them putting updates out already even though no one can buy the thing. (yes there is some resentment in there)

who knows until we actually get the device in our hands. And we won't have it long enough to really tell a difference. Plus from what I understand the issues with WiFi was hardware related. The only people who will know are the reviewers. That said them releasing the update now makes me feel like yesterday was really supposed to be the launch which coincides with a lot of the early information.
I remember some reviewers mentioning that an update was pushed that improves performance and battery life. Maybe this is it...
Was posted already in this thread, an hour before this one.
Edit: It appears it was posted in the TF101 forum, and recently moved though.
Well I tried to run unpack blob scripts on it but it says its invalid so I don't know whats inside of it.
Maybe it will fix the release date.

Yep, same on the official japanese Sony page. But they keep it very common, no specific countries or anythin.
So in conclusion, yes its coming but if our country is included remains a mystery for now.
If Japan will get in April, obviously other regions will also get by May for sure..

Why is it that people like Sony have to release updates a country at a time. Its pathetic. I WISH I had never bought the stupid thing and had hung on to ny Asus Transformer that has had ICS for the last month.

you think they make it ready and keep it in there servers without releasing it to us? And japan gets it, they send feedback, Sony improves and releases it globally.
yeah go ahead and sell it, buy one of those "It has the same look as Ipad" tablet
I sure wish they would "leak" an early release like Samsung does for the devs. Oh well.
There are some interesting goodies coming in the release. I love the ability to open small windows on top of your screen for the browser, calc, etc. I wonder if you will be able to drag the program to the new control bar and have small windows for any app.
I hope they update the remote app, it kinda sucks.
Hi guys, a friend of mine is thinking about getting the device but wants to spend some time with it first (apparently it hasn't been officially released in NZ yet). She lives in Auskland and wonders if there's anyone who can share his/her prime for half an hour just so she can try basic things, see if it's comfortable enough - stuff like that.
If you don't mind - send me your phone/email in pm, please.
hey it has been officially released in nz, I went into jbhifi in albany and queen street and both have had a demo transformer prime to play with
also you can have a try at pbtech in penrose

Do you guys know of any places that sell just the dock? Had to get one without, and I'm looking for the dock (Amazon for some reason doesn't ship to our fine shores).
I hate to add another country to the list, but do any Sony Tablet S owners in Canada have the update yet? I have been restarting and hitting the update button for the last two days and still nothing. I know they said Japan and US were suppose to get it in the next two days and Europe in a couple weeks (that's what I heard), but what about Canada? Do we full under to US umbrella?
no updates in Alberta so far.....
i remember seeing someone saying that Canada wont be getting the update until May 3rd, in one of the posts in "How many user have received ICS update" topic
yea sony said may 3rd : ( that sucks....
May 3rd for Canada? Where did they say that?
Sent from my Sony Tablet S using XDA Premium HD app
Still nothing for Canada
Guess im not the only one not getting the update.....
One more week
I'm in Newfoundland and didn't get it. I got a little frustrated and used Condi's tool to change my region to the US and then just get the OTA update. It worked flawlessly and immediately!!
My recommendation: You guys do it too! The ICS update for the Tablet S is the greatest update I've ever seen a piece of electronics receive. Everything runs WAY better, the new features are fantastic, my battery life is (strangely) much better, the keyboard input issues are totally fixed, and then you can get google chrome as well.
I nearly bought a new tablet every weekend, but this update totally saved it. I'm now a reborn sony fan and will definitely wait to get their next tab now.
...Now if you'll excuse me I have to go THANK every post Condi has ever made lol. Stop praying for that UPDATE SYSTEM button to work and just go the root method

Unfortunately it's still the same catalog of games there lol. I wish the entire selection that's on PSN was there but oh well
I just talked with Sony Support today and asked when ICS would get released for the Canadian Tablet S. They told me May 10th (I guess the same as Europe). Anyone know why they would release it so much later for the rest of the world than for US and Japan? I can only hope our update will have all the bugs worked out from the US release lol
@MarkB: Did you lose root after you did the upgrade?
Has anybody in Canada done the rooted ICS steps on the AiO post? What have your results been?
I just finally got root, so I'm a little bit gunshy on updates yet.
Thanks!
I went through the complete steps and things worked out fine. Unfortunately Im having issues with some of my apps thought (but I doubt its related)

Yes you WILL lose root when doing the ota update for US region. I only rooted to change the region to get the update tho, so no 'loss' for me.
I'd say someone will eventually figure out how to root the ICS rom anyways, so no big dealo
Thanks MarkB. Still considering setting up the AiO Rooted ICS, or saving that until the Canadian update is released.
I used to follow the PSP Hacking scene, and when a hack was opened for a previous version, the rule was to ALWAYS wait for a hacked update. I think Sony spends more time locking its software down than developing new stuff...
Good to hear that we have something to look forward to!

I couldn't wait... I knew sony said "the end of april" for the release date, so I was getting off work and nailing that System update button every 20 mins for the past week. I'm just way too impatient and couldn't wait any longer haha.
Anyways, Tegra 3 with a 1280x800 screen and 1GB of RAM isn't evnough of a boost to upgrade now. The next thing to get excited for is to see what Sony's next tablet is going to be like... and I believe we'll be seeing it soon enough
Is content on the stores locked by the device? In other words do you currently see movies and such that other Canadian tablets don't see?

Everything seems to be exactly the same concerning market content.
a second tech from sony told me the release for Canada would be this week.
Hopefully someone with a rooted Honeycomb tablet can use the ALLinONE Tool to download the encrypted OTA update so we can pre-root it.
I didn't bother waiting and installed the US pre-root.
For all those our there that remained Stock Rooted [Locked Bootloader] that have tried to flash the new JB update but get Andy or other errors.
Make sure your running the Stock Build.prop, and no apps are frozen
Also the update should be on ASUS within 24-72 Hours

Mine tried to update and failed ( I forgot to unroot prior so I am hoping that is what it was since nothing else was changed ). After it failed I unrooted and tried to update again but now it is saying there is no update.

Some people had been suffering for 10 months because a POS company ASUS can't make a product right. THey charge us 500 dollars for the crappiest product in the history of electronics. Now they can't even make a right OTA? I would love to see a company like this go out of business. There should be class action lawsuit against asus. I really hope asus goes bankrupt and saves future customers from this misery.

This is a good question. I checked out their site in preparation for when they post the update. Not shockingly, there are "instructions" of how to install the update, except the "instructions" don't actually tell you how to do it! What crap. To prove my point, here are their "instructions" for the last firmware update. It looks like the steps to install the update stop after telling you how to check your current version. Thanks, Asus!
Steps of Update:
1. Check SW version of your Eee Pad Transformer Prime TF201*
2. Download Eee Pad Transformer Prime TF201 Firmware: V9.4.2.28 Only for WW SKU and Update version of SOP (From “Manual” Item)
※Firmware update cannot do *SKU conversion* and downgrade version.
Wrong SKU may cause update failure, You can only update your SW version on the Same SKU
*How to check SW version of your Eee Pad Transformer Prime TF201?
Path: [Settings]-->[About tablet]-->Build number
Example: You should be able to see the build number WW_epad-9.X.X.X_2012xxxx, where “WW” means SKU.

The OTA has been rolling out for all of 12 hrs at best. They are required to release SOURCE CODE not an update file. I had the update failed to download message and it has since downloaded. As it turns out a lot of people were trying to download at the same time. Weird I know.

was able to force the update again by copying dlpkgfile and the echo command. it's updating now

The dlpkgfile is posted by another user in that thread. I downloaded it and followed the method posted. All went perfectly.
Why do the users have to go through so much trouble just to get an OTA to work? Why? Asus, I hope you burn in hell. The schittiest company to have existed on planet. Can they not do one thing right? I mean so much trouble and hacking just to get an OTA to work? F U asus. All the engineers involved in Prime and this project should be stoned to death.
