So I just received a 1MB OTA which took my version up to 4.2.1. At the very least, it fixes the missing December issue in the People app. Given the size, I doubt there's too much more in there.
Any performance improvement? Can you run an AnTuTu 3 test?
Keep root? Any problem with unlocked bootloader (but stock cmw and rom, only bootloader unlocked)?

It's not visibly faster, although I didn't have any performance issues before either. Disabling Currents pretty much fixed it for me. I can't find antutu 3 on the Play Store, is it just called "antutu"?

Sorry, I haven't rooted mine so I don't know.
Does anybody know how to get this update on a Rooted device with custom recovery?

Sideload possibly; but in any case, someone needs to provide an update URL.
Does the update keep root?

Just download AnTuTu, and you'll get the latest version, I think.

Were you experiencing any freezing or reboots prior to the update? I wonder if this addresses that issue. If not, this thing is going back.
Sent from my Nexus 10 using Tapatalk HD
I dunno, maybe I'll just unroot, relock and grab the OTA...then try to re-root and unlock again.
Any chance you can still catch the filename of the downloaded file?
I have not yet received the ota update. I'm currently using unrooted 4.2nexus10. Buy I'm currently in the Philippines...
Can any expert tell me if i can still get the update or should i just manually download... If so how to manually apply update... Hope anyone out there could help

You should get the update eventually automatically. Otherwise (once someone provides an update URL) you can just take the package, and adb sideload it from Recovery (boot device to recovery; do update from adb or whatever it's called; on the PC, do adb sideload UPDATE-NAME.zip)

Then please tell us the exact filename of that zip file. It should look like this:
Code:
123abc456def.signed-manta-JOP40D-from-JOP40C.123abc45.zip
The numbers in front and at the end are especially important.
You can maybe clear data from the Google Services Framework and then try polling for the update.
I just want to know if I am unlocked and rooted will I keep those? I am still on stock recovery and rom, but I did add AOSP browser to system/apps manually so that may need to be removed I believe.

I figured a lot of people want this instead of a nandroid backup so here you go. You're all welcome. Be aware that you will need to upload the fixed build.prop (recommended for US users) and change the boot animation (optional). Unpack the zip file and use stock recovery to flash this update.

Can this be used on an O2-UK Dell Streak?
If so can we n00b's have a little guide?
Im desperate to get official 2.1, thanks!
Yup, it's from O2 as you can see in the screenshot.
as simple as dropping it on the sd card then?
No special build.prop adjustments? (<--the scary part for me)
Yup, absolutely. You don't have to edit the build.prop since you have O2 anyway. It's only for US users so it will reflect the US paid apps.

Not really, could just root with Universal Androot after flashing it?
I'm waiting for someone else to confirm this is legit though
Universal root works. I've had this update running for a week now.
Wow, really?
Is it worth flashing over the previous 2.1 rom?
I took the leap for everyone and it does indeed install. I have only had it running for a few minutes but it does seem a little faster than the beta. Hard to believe this is the official as there is still no way to use the front facing camera in the camera app unless i am missing something.
What else do you guys want me to check out?
Let me know I'll try it
I currently have the 6941 build. I have the At&t US version streak. If I update to this will this cause me any issues? I'm also rooted.
Mine's rooted and the front camera still can't be used unless i open fring or qik.

Which is why I question if this is the official update. Any reason for you to think it is? Or just guessing?
Any thing else that doesn't work from 1.6 to indicate it may not be official? I only used 1.6 for about 5 minutes so it is hard for me to compare.
its official from 02
Check the screenshot. It's official from O2. How many times do i need to repeat that? I got the notification as well.

There were others at Modaco that got update notifications for the 7546 package but that didn't make it official. I am just asking how you are confirming this is official or what about the about screen makes it official.
And I like I said I upgrade to it and it for sure is an update and seems to be running fine.
On the leaked update there is no trace of any brand support whatsoever. This one had a link to the O2 support site. I had to confirm it from an O2 rep. Yup, it's legit. Funny how they still didn't fix the front facing camera. In 2.2 perhaps? By the way, don't look at my about screen.. I'm talking about the screenshot on my first post.
there is a new FW update available, installig now I will report later. I'm in mexico.
UPDATE
is official version 9.4.2.15. update was without problems, GPS seems to be the same (useless in door) everything else works fine, I will continue testing.
If anyone can find me the zip file of this firmware ...
Need it since I can't OTA because it reboots before finishing the "First configuration" steps
Thank you
Here we go again...lol. I'm always one of the first on these posts..ill check now. I was running the beta .15 build. Time for the official one now
Edit: says no update available yet. Might not have hit east coast yet. Post a screenshot of your about tablet of info. Or post what version it says you on now.
No Issues So Far (fingers crossed)
Installed without issue. Lost root restored with OTA RootKeeper.
EDIT: I've seen at least one "helpful" response to my post so I wanted to clarify the I lost root doing the update BUT I restored it with OTA RootKeeper.
UPDATE: No discernible improvement in GPS. Still nonexistent since .13. Everything else seems fine.
UPDATE 02/25/12: Maybe it was the weather yesterday but this morning I picked up 11 sats in my den and locked on 4. Woohoo!
Can confirm it. USA, NY. OTA update, Build #epad-9.4.2.15-20120221

Be careful! We had a few people brick their prime after trying to flash an official Asus rom/update after unlocking. Plenty of threads on it. I would just wait til virtuous rom updates. Check out the other threads on issue. You don't want to risk bricking your device.

Sent from my Transformer Prime TF201 using xda premium
I wonder I'd the people who running beta .15 build will even get this update. It looks like exact same build number. So if nothing else changed then we already on latest build. Can someone who received official OTA post a screenshot to see if anything has changed? Or if someone was running the beta build post if you still received the new OTA.
Can someone post a list of the driver versions so we can see what changed? I think this is just a continuation of the random-reboot fixes, but I'd like to know if any of the wireless drivers were updated.
..so what do we do now?
Reset by clearing just data and apps, or using the "magic hole" and make a complete reset?
A link to this 15 fw would be nice when possible.
Great! just updated, looked like it is going smoother!
Just ran Quadrant benchmark to test if it goes a bit faster or slower
score is : 3834, is it me or has it gotten slower?
Got the .15 installing now in St Louis...
Only just found out this morning that, while my GPS works most of the time, and wireless works fantastically, BT doesn't see anything at all... maybe I'll get lucky and this will fix that.

My beta build looks exactly like this. So it was only beta since we tested it out I guess. Now that it got great feedback, they pushed the same thing out to everyone.

Gosh unbelievable!!!!!!
Unlocked ? Your device is not an Asus device anymore!
You agreed this when unlocking your device! Didn't you read the agreement ?
You can't install any ASUS firmware update anymore: OTA, manually, or any other method you could imagine !
The only way is to have a system dump, or uncompress/extract the blob file, pick the modified files and include them in a ROM or make an update zip for unlocked devices I guess. I don't have skills for that perhaps someone will do that.
Here is my screenshot from beta .15 build I installed last night. Looks identical to screenshot of new OTA update.

Not sure it applies to you, but I am sure the update will fail everytime if you have bootstrap recovery installed. As the update uses a bootstrap method itself, if it can't launch it's recovery properly it will fail.
The catch to that is that since the last two updates were OTA's there is no SBF for us to revert back to stock with.
So, you can take the downloaded OTA out of the /cache partition (Will be a zip file with todays timestamp), rename it to update.zip, place it on your sd card and flash through recovery. That's a work around

Looks like Photo-torpedo method worked!
Photon-torpedo.sh threw an error like it did in the last update but #Root Check says it's all good. Super User, Busy box, Titanium Backup are all happy with root.
Also no problem to go R/W with Root Explorer so maybe this update is not locked like the last one!

Can you post the OTA
Is it safe to assume that the OTA would fail if I'm S-Off with TWRP installed? I just S-off'd & rooted last night. Still running the stock ROM. Haven't made any other modifications other than uninstall a few preloaded apps.

In order for the ota to work you need to be on the stock recovery, kernel and system files. Make sure you're on those and the ota works fine

I also rooted but have gained zero benefit this early on. Are the factory images out and is that the best way to be able to take the update?

What's interesting is that even with the error my system says it is on R now. I then rooted again and my tablet seems to be running fine. I debated just wiping it out and flashing the stock image, I'll do that if I ruin into any strange problems...
