Okey, I'm not aware if this has been mentioned before, but as soon as I installed the unlocked JB WW rom I get an asus firmware update for my dock and it wants to update my system?
Is this save or not save to do? (since I'm aware asus updates can **** up ur prime when your bl is unlocked..) but am not sure about this one..
with regards, Hawkysoft
nvm, did it and all still works properly
I'm curious as to why I DIDN'T get notified to update. What version is the dock supposed to be at? I am currently showing TF201-DOCK-0207
Is that the latest, or does anyone know if there is a manual update to get the latest?

I have a qeuestion regarding these OTA Updates
[*]My Hero is from Orange UK. But as of now, I m running SuperHero in it. So is it necessary to go back to the stock ROM to get the updates through OTA. Or is it enough to be connected.?
What for the official 2.1 release you mean? If you update you're unlikely to ever get it rooted again (though i'm sure someone will do it in time). But you'll be stuck on 2.1 til HTC update it (unlikely). If I were you i'd just wait for the updates to come from the community.
If you're talking about SuperHero OTA updates just run hte villainrom updater...

Thanks for the reply. And sorry for being not so clear. Yes, I was referring to Official OTA updates.
Just wanted know whether we have on the orange network or is it suffice if we connected to Internet.?

If you wanted the official Orange update (presuming it did come OTA), then you would need to be running the official ROM.
SuperHero is gonna be getting an update though which will make it more like the official ROM
I'd strongly advise not to install any stock update, as that will include a new SPL, which will try to prevent you rooting again. Stick with a custom ROM for now, and then you'll be able to grab a 'safe' copy of the final ROM from a dev over here when it's available. That way, you get a final copy but you also keep root.

Thanks fella. Much appreciated. I am very well aware of the effects of the official ROM Update. I bought my Hero from Orange UK, then I unlocked it and I am using it in India now. So was curious and confused regarding the update. The only thing which custom 2.1 ROMs didn't give me is a 'working exchange sync'. Each time I tried to sync it gives me an error caused by security certs. So I m still relied upon my Black berry for my official emails.

My Transformer Prime is on build version 8.8.3.27 and says that there is no new update. I thought 8.8.3.29 was the latest version. Is that not the case?
yes, .29 is the latest. if prime not giving you most recent update, u can manually install it from Asus site. maybe they took it down for certain reasons, as far as OTA update goes. first day I got mines on 12/22 I updated to this latest firmware ver. just keep checking or manually install it.
plus there's a very good chance we should be getting another update anyday now. whether ICS or an update to fix GPS issues or whatever.
I've rooted and unlocked my Prime. With Virtous ROM.
So the question is, can i update to .21? If can, how?
Will it brick my prime?
I'm new here but i like to get updated with the latest updates.
Nope I don't think so, unlocked=no updates.
21 upgrade
The latest virtuous is .21 , the developers of these roms will usually update them. Do not
update from asus , as you will brick it. Just install their latest virtuous rom zip.
Hi, my brother in-law purchased open box/new TF201 with 3.0 version. He wants to update to the latest version. He called Asus support. They want him to pay $99 for the warranty first before they can provide any help. I've spent some time searching this forum and found manual updates to JB. However I'm not sure if he can jump from version 3 to JB. What he needs is just stock updates and fixes. I'm not an expert in android world. If someone could direct me where can I find needed updates and what should I do first, second, etc. I would really appreciate. Thank you in advance.
First, He cans update to ICS (4.0) directly by OTA.
For JB (4.1), it depends on his prime. Some of them receive the update via OTA ... Some other wait and wait the official update ... But they will not have it ... Like me ! ^^
So I've done the update manually (with some mistakes that I correct after, thanks to XDA members), and I install a custom ROM (androwook), based on the latest JB update for our Prime !

Your lucky that you were able to get your tablet back without the JB bootloader stuck on it, but unlucky that your now unable to unlock, have you tried to unlock it? Have you tried to update it?
For me all i did was switch usb debugging and unknown sources and run the unlock app.
Never seen Honeycomb on the asus, but surely an RUU if available would update you to ICS, then unlock and NVflash and then update bootloader to JB.
Are there any threads with RUU's to update the tab to ICS ?
Never had t do it on this device myself so i'm a little stuck for the moment, but so long as you have a working serial then you should be fine.
