Well, .14 is finally here for European units; I've just installed it and will be trying to kill it over the next few days.
In order to identify whether this patch is a success or not, please post your own experiences in this thread - early indications are that some people are STILL experiencing random crashes with their devices. We need to collate those experiences here in order to apply pressure on Asus.
This thread is for the .14 WW patch, not the US patch. Please don't submit a response if you are using a unit that isn't running a WW build.
My specs, for those interested:
32gb Grey Transformer Prime
C10KAS1****
'WW' build.
Never been rooted.
Never upgraded to an American .11.1 / .12 / .13 patch
Polite notice: Please specify whether you have performed a data reset after upgrading to this patch, as some apps may still cause issues. We need to nail the OS first, then the apps.
UPDATE 20/02/2012 @ 8pm: 6 hours after patching, and I've just experienced my first lock-up and crash. I can confirm that this patch does not fix the lock-up crashes, but it does seem to reduce them significantly. That said, crashes are NOT acceptable for a £500 device,so it looks like I have no option but to RMA it - I'm certainly not interested in waiting another 3 weeks for a solution.
UPDATE 21/02/2012: Added a poll. Racked up about 3 crashes in the process. Initiated returns procedure, very sad.
UPDATE 21/02/2012 @ 1pm: Identified a possible link with Performance Mode and crashes. If you have a stable prime, please switch it to Performance Mode and post your experiences.
UPDATE 21/02/2012 @ 2.30pm: Confirmed - crashes occur on any power mode; Performance mode is NOT the issue.
after a factory reset and "force gpu rendering" the only issue is gone: random browser crash.

Try the tablet without this setting forced on - this setting made .11 more stable, and we ideally want to test this .14 patch without any 'tweaks'. I bet that a lot of people are still running without this option ticked anyway.
I've already exceeded my maximum consecutive runs of AnTuTu Benchmark - I'm up to 10 in a row now without a crash. Positive news so far!
..has anybody made a full or partial reset, or just installed overwriting the previous one?
I did a hard reset.
Installed the update. Reinstalled and set up all my apps and accounts.
First reboot occurred after 45 minutes.
UK / WW Prime. C10KAS s/n.

I just used the OTA process - I checked for new updates and allowed the device to download and install it without much intervention on my part.
I have no reboots, lockups or any other issue than bad WiFi/BT when using them at the same time.
I am a bit worried of this OTA, as I read may experience issues they did not have previously.
Mine is BCOKAS1XXXXX, but it seems mostly issues are on C1 version..
C1 Prime here - no hard reset before or after .14 OTA.
Over 2 hrs of uptime so far incl. 2 AnTuTu benchmarks on Balanced and Performance modes.
Wi-Fi is noticeably improved.

I second this - I'm seeing a fully lit WiFi icon for the first time since I turned my Prime on.
The only thing I can report is that my AnTuTu benchmarks are consistently lower.
BEFORE
Balanced Mode - 10000-10500
Performance Mode - 11000+ consistently
A bit of an overlap, and not a massive difference between the two modes.
AFTER
Balanced Mode - 8000-9000
Performance Mode - 10000-11000
Much more of a margin between the two, still not smashed 11500 on performance yet, however. It rarely breaks 11000 since the patch.
Not seen a crash yet, which is good. I've lost track of how many AnTuTu benchmarks I've run now, my previous record was 5 consecutive tests without a crash. I'm well over 20 tests as it stands, so a marked improvement in my case at the minute.
My chickens are not being counted just yet however, and I'm very disappointed to see that some are STILL having issues. Not good enough ASUS.
My AnTuTu benchmarks have seen a slight drop-off too with .14:

:-( still no DE firmware here...
I regret I have bought it through Amazon DE.
Just loaded the update in Finland, will report back in some hours, went smoothly, hoked with the power cord and rebooted after update installed, so far so good...
Cheers
I had several random freeze and reboots after installing the update, had next to no issues prior to this. I have since deleted my dalvik-cache with root explorer and let it rebuild. So far so good since then. Will update later.

I have a C10 WW model that got updated earlier today. So far so good, but I never had real issues, other than non-existing GPS and average WiFi. The browser seems to have fewer lockups.
I can't install this update...after downloading it when the tablet reboot i got a droid with a red exclamation point and after restarting i got a message that there is a problem with the update -( i don't know what to do

Try again ArN, hook it with the power cord and reboot (shutdown) after the 111 files install.

I cant install this update either same issue i live in Canada and have ww sku stuck on .11 whats giong on Asus.
I'm from Poland. My tab is C1OKAS. I updated my Prime 5 hours ago. From this time 0 random reboots. Before 5 to 10 reboots per day. Now everything is going smoother an a bit faster. Wifi was ok at .11. It is ok also at .14 I dont test gps. Youtube works perfect. Battery life is very good. I never done factoy reset or wipe before installing OTA updates. So far i am very happy about this update.
Update: During the night (8h) on .14 prime eats 8 % of battery. On .11 1-2%.
Yepp, nothing to see here for German Primes yet.

If you have modified anything in /system/app this is what happens. Revert your changes and the update will work. If you can't remember what you did then do the full update of .11 from ASUS' site followed by re-rooting, followed by voodoo root keeper, followed by OTA update, then re-root with voodoo.
I hope that all make sense.
Hello all,
Just a quick message to let you know Microsoft has released an update to Dev 1. I have just updated my phone to version (8.10.12382.878).
Somehow there aren't any information on what has been fixed, but hopefully battery drain and heating issues are fixed. I will let you know how it goes or if I notice anything special. So far, the strangest thing is that my phone was at 100% before the update. The update took about 20 minutes to complete and after, my phone powered with only 28%... Hopefully this is part of a calibration that will allow me to have better power later.
Good luck everyone!

While not stated on the page, it was mentioned in the podcast that battery improvements was one of the fix's. That said, I've been running on it for a day, and haven't really noticed much.

i not notice improvement on battery life with update 1... same as before with 8.1... but my battery can long 2 days... only what i do is hard reset and set all settings from fresh (not used backup from cloud)
Gotta say 8.1 is amazing. Tile wallpaper, 3 columns and notification panel slide down and a lot more...
I haven't noticed a thing on mine...

i just recently updated to 8.1. and i can say that after my first attempt of using the backed up settings from the cloud starting completely fresh is the way to go. battery life was less than 5 hours for me at first. after hard resetting and starting from scratch my phone is no longer hot and the battery time has resumed to what it was before the update.

Various problems since October 1 security update
This may be coincidental but since getting the October 1 update, I have been having various lockups, reboots and higher battery consumption. Until the October update, I didn't have any of these problems. Never had a random reboot. Battery easily lasted 18+ hours and the few times I did have higher-than-normal battery usage from an app (usually G+ when on 4G posting lots of pictures), I would get a prompt telling me about it and then I could kill it.
Only recently added "new apps" were for Black Friday but they have since been removed. Since my phone is on AT&T I did notice some new crapware from AT&T but have disabled them.
Anyone else notice this?
Woke up to the December security patch this morning. USA Tmobile. First time I didn't have to manually check got an update.

Yes I have some issues. My Note 8 is a Exynos version. After this update battery drain intensified, The fingerprint sensor has a delay and screen brightness go to zero sometimes
I updated and my battery is fine, maybe slightly better.
This thread has been created in Jan 2019 for monitoring monthly updates (i.e. security updates and many more) on Nokia 6.1 plus global Android one version...
Anyone is welcome to post here about his device's updates....
This is the January 2019 update
The Jan 2019 Update has nothing but the Security Patch.
It weighs in at around 65 MB.
New update of February security patch arrived
I've just updated. Seems stable so far
Not sure is it my delusion or not?
But fingerprint sensor seems fater than earlier.

I admit It's lot slower than other ones but don't think inconsistent...
It always wakes itself up whenever I touch it, never failed to do even with a little touch.

With this update Google news is included in system pre-installed apps
The new march build has fixed the truncated text on the notification panel when you have selected the small text option.
Will update posts with more findings.
Update - Phone is way more snappier now and the battery drain has been comparitively lower than the feb patch.
Update 2 - Some People say the bootloader unlock(Enable OEM unlocking)option is now available for them. I still have it greyed out
Update 3 - Wow. Yesterday night after playing PUBG for sometime, I had 24% battery left. I left the phone as it was and came today morning to see only 1% battery drain?
This latest update has definitely improved the battery and made the more snappy and responsive. Also, The phone does not heat as much when charging.
Still no update. Any help?

Its actually much better for me now. Yesterday i had to travel for 4 hours and i left the phone a 28% when the trip started and when i reached, i had 27%.
Try clearing your cache data.
Is there any improvement in the inbuilt camera app after march update bcoz i couldn't see any, still it is the same crappy app, and please suggest a google camera app link which works the best.
Still no update in Spain (TA-1103). It's weird because all previous SP and MR have arrived via OTA when they were deployed.
Is there any other way to force update? I tried with VPN trick but it was unsuccessfully :crying:

This is my battery percentage and corresponding screen-on time under normal usage which includes basic tasks like using WhatsApp, browsing chrome and listening to Spotify.
Before the March update, my battery percentage used to be around 75%-78% after this musch of screen-on time, after the update I'm seeing a significant difference.
I can't be the only one and what exactly i can do to solve this?
Nothing in italy i try with change vpn... Nothing
So here is the XDA article about the feature drop
June Feature Drop for Google Pixels includes At a Glance improvements, Pocket Operator, and more
The June feature drop for Google Pixel devices is now available, and you can install it on your smartphone. It has a ton of new features.
www.xda-developers.com
And it really does look kind of..... underwhelming? like nothing there is very useful or important at large.
But the update actually brought nice stuff.
Check this article for the main take on the feature drop
June Feature Drop appears to cure most of what ailed Pixel 6 and Pixel 6 Pro units
Most Pixel 6 and Pixel 6 Pro users have seen a big improvement in their handsets' cellular connectivity after installing the June Feature Drop.
www.phonearena.com
I myself have noticed improvements in the time to fingerprint unlock, network seems to be faster and more stable in comparison to March, and my network battery usage went down from being around 30% to around 5%!
So all in all I'm happy with this update even though it didn't seem meaningful at the beginning. It makes this phone more fine tuned and worth.
Have you-all noticed any improvements?
Are you feeling it's better then before?
Yes much better. One day in only but noticeable for sure.
The OTA update isn't showing up yet for me.

I used the android flash tool it factory reset my phone but that's not big deal for me I restored my backup from Google one.
I have noticed the fingerprint sensor is working better my phone seems to not get as good reception but the network is also not using 30% anymore it more like 10 or 15 which is still high but where I'm at now doesn't really have great reception to begin with

I usually wait for the update notification upon checking updates available. This time it didn't seem it was forthcoming anytime soon since my wife's P5 didn't get it either. So I sideloaded it yesterday. It took all of 7 - 10 min from recovery to reboot. Not sure what the delay is but I just didn't feel like waiting for them to do whatever the eff they need to do to release it.

I've definitely noticed an improvement in the fingerprint reader. I haven't noticed any different in network - but more so because I am usually on WiFi and generally don't have network issues when I am not.

Yeah, I ended up sideloading it. No issues, and everything feels a little snappier
I sideloaded it Monday afternoon. Wasn't having any issues before and am not having any issues after.
It's a little early to tell, but I think battery life has improved. I ended the day both Monday and Tuesday with a battery that was about 10%-15% higher than usual.
Being able to use music player like neutron working again is brilliant I had the update on Monday about 11pm I'm in uk
i installed June update 2 days ago. not sure if it is the update or battery guru which was installed at the same time, but now my phone ACTUALLY goes into deep sleep (as reported by battery guru)!!
Its always in deep sleep now for around 15/16hrs between charges and battery drain is down to as little as 1% per hr when screen off. Before I could lose around 20/30% from around 10pm (last phone use) until 6.30am when i pick my phone up the following morning.
One thing i am having issue with SINCE the June update is pixel launcher. Im getting errors saying it has stopped working. I Use Lawnchair anyway, but thats not the point. Just before I get the error about pixel launcher, the phone goes really slow.
A restart of the phone hasn't solved the issues and i have also cleared data/cache from the launcher to no avail.
I NEED TO CONNECT MULTIPLE BLUETOOTH DEVICES AT ONCE!
one weird error I have since updating. If I pull down the notification tab as soon as i click a notification, instead of opening it it will lock the screen
Noticed much improved battery life as well. A 2% drop in active usage and much better standby battery drain. Took my phone out of the charger at 1pm yesterday and I'm at 48% as of writing this message the net day at 6:35pm. Moderate active usage between then and now.
EDIT:
Forgot to mention that my phone doesn't seem to randomly overheat anymore while casually browsing the web.
EDIT 2:
Phone finally shut down today at 4pm, with around 50hours of total battery life and 6ish hours of screen time. This is probably the single biggest overall battery life improvement I've ever experienced just from installing an update alone on any phone I've owned.
NVM, I found the setting.
Definitely not better here battery or network wise after the June patch.
