The firmware update is 10.26.1.18 The kernel was also updated to 3.4.57 - December 18.

Had anyone noticed the brightness issue resolved? For that matter, has anyone noticed ANY changes? My hope is the issue where you had to click on the "smart saving" icon in the drop down menu isn't needed anymore (to fix the interment brightness issues.)

The only thing I saw was a pop-up when the update was completed. It said Asus has a new program built into the device that will send usage information and statistics to them to help find any issues and keep it up to date. Then it asked if I understood with an option to click a check mark. I didn't click it..I don't want to share my information with them. Are they nuts?

I already have 3.4.57 (10.26.1.7 firmware) but it's dated Nov. 8. I'm unlocked and rooted and I don't get any notification of an update, nor do I see anything recent on the Asus download page.

Go into settings then "About"... click "System Update." That's how I got mine

Did that and clicked the button a half dozen times or so. Nada. Are you in the US? I don't think it will let me update OTA anyway since I unlocked my bootloader, but it should at least tell me there's an update that I can't have.

After further review the auto brightness bug seems to be resolved!

Anyone saw it anywhere available for manual download please?

Auto brightness flickering killing my eyes...

BTW, any improvment on brightness during movie playback?

Weird, I got the 10.26.1.18 update yesterday, but it's Dec 17 not 18 for the date.
I wonder if there's any difference. I don't see any update as of now though. Keyboard dock is still not reading USB 3.0 sticks with the USB port... probably gonna RMA it tomorrow

What browser bugs are you experiencing sbdags?

Reply to a thread on XDA and in the reply box after typing hit the backspace key repeatedly, or cursor up and down and the browser will crash is one I remember off the top of my head. It does it on the TF700 and TF201 as well - happens on most forums I visit so could be a bug in forum software but still the browser shouldn't just crash to the desktop.

This might be a bit off-topic but I'm having some nasty issues with OTA updates:

A month or so ago I decided to update to 4.3 manually, using the 1 GB file on Asus' website (I have the WW version and I'm in Bulgaria). It worked alright but yesterday something happened - I got an OTA notice and I didn't even look at the version it was going to, only that it was 250 MB large. I went ahead with the update and my tablet simply couldn't boot. I got into the bootloader and I saw that the "update" was actually a downgrade to 4.2.2. Finally, I thought of wiping the data off the tablet and it managed to boot. I was on 4.2.2 and any update checking still came up empty, a whole month and more after 4.3 arrived!

Now I'm back on 4.3 using the manual method and I keep getting the upgrade-downgrade notice from the System Update option. How screwed am I? Can I get this new update anytime soon? Should I bother writing a complaint to ASUS?


EDIT: Ooops, just saw the whole other thread about this issue. Guess it's a WW version thing. Mods, please delete this post.

i have strange problem with my TF701 after this unfortunate 'update'. after update it got stuck in boot, so i had to wipe it clean and restore what i could and everything seemed to be OK. Now, when i plug it into charger, screen turns itself on. after 2 min (my timeout interval for screen), it turns off. but after while, it turns itself back on. and then off. and then...
any ideas what it could be? no root. stock rom.
thanks

It bricked my device! Now it doesn't boot. After a new boot animation gets stuck and it doesn't boot. What can I do to repair it? I don’t want to send it to the warranty because I won't have for a month. Please help!

    For thosw which had problems tp update over the file from asus, ur microSD card need to be in Fat32 else the update will fail:

    format microSD in FAT32

    put T4_SDUPDATE.zip file to microSD

    power off the Tablet

    push Volume Down + Power button together and hold
    after a new screen with 3 icons in the middle push Power Up to select RCK

    Now after a few seconds, the update should load.

    answer is probably simple, but sad for asus... they don't care about customers

    hyper production with big $$$ in mind.. top management don't care about customers and products, just pump over and over again new devices and gadgets, not having time to polish previous wave... just like most big IT companies

    just calculate how much different products with android OS or tablets/phones they pump in last 12 months... they make mistakes because not care enough, they care about our money, not about our pleasure and their devices in our hands. They not want to confess, but this is true, sad for us, but good for companies. They got our money, we got their devices - BUT WITHOUT PROPER AND QUALITY SUPPORT

    The TF701 is turning into a debacle for Asus! First the dock connector/hinge issue (which is simply very bad QC) and now they push out JB 4.2.2 firmware to tablets already on JB 4.3 leading to a stuck boot for who knows how many people! And that a data wipe is the only option to get out of it - leading to loss of data for God knows how many users - is the icing on the cake!
    I was about to get the Trio - but I'm starting to seriously question the reliability of this company. Such glaring mistakes usually have their root in bad management and that trickles down. :headbang:
