I have the same problem... TF101G 9.2.2.4, rooted with PERI 0.4, trying to update to 9.2.2.6 OTA stops in Rogue XM recovery saying "failed to veryfy whole-file signature".

Been searching around now, but there is no clear indication of what is possible and I don't want to risk reading between the lines, so here my question: is there any possible known documented way to update to 9.2.2.6 from 9.2.2.4 with PERI-0.4?

Alternatively, I've also looked at ways to restore stock recovery (and remove Rogue XM), but I haven't been able to find anything clear either (again, I don't want to "guess", it's just too risky for me).

UPDATE:

Nevermind, I found a way, here's the step by step way for people who have the same issue:

1. Go to http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1689193 and download the 1-Click Transformer Root tool

2. Do the process that restores ASUS stock recovery

3. Update OTA to 9.2.2.6

4. (optional) root or flash CWM recovery if you want

(Sometimes it's really hard to search and find solutions for problems, especially when most postings are written for people who already know lots of terms associated with flashing and ROMs, and there rarely is any glossary that explains anything)

Hi

I managed to get mine updated as well.

I flashed my recovery to Rouges latest non touch version and then booted into recovery and went to mount all the partitions and then proceeded with the update via internal storage.

Update went successfully and I am on 9.2.2.6.

You can update to ota using cwm too with the blob file using dd.
Or put stock recovery back on there using this:
Download recoveryblob of stock recovery and put it on internal storage (/sdcard/)
Type in adb shell or terminal app:
Code:
su
dd if=/sdcard/recoveryblob of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p4
reboot
And that's stock recovery.

Thanks a bunch for this tool, very detailed instructions. Unfortunately, since rooting with this method, my Transformer tf-101 no longer shuts down (it freezes while shutting down--I need to boot into recovery and select "power off"). Any Ideas?
At first I thought it could be Guevor's latest kernel, so I flashed my Nandroid Backup (pre-new-kernel-install) and it had the same problem.

FYI, I already performed a full wipe and factory reset (twice) and I fixed permissions (out of desperation:)

thanks

I don't think that's PERI related, I'd try flashing a custom ROM, never heard of it not shutting down properly like that.

BTW: Hold power for 15 seconds to turn off totally

Did your tool include a custom kernel? I flashed the Asus stock kernel and the problem went away.
Thanks anyway for telling me the issue had nothingto do with you ;)

Hello,

I bought tablet Asus Transformer TF101 and I updated it on Android 4.0.3. Details about my tablet are: version of core: 2.6.39.4 android@Mercury #1, number of built is: IML74K.WW_epad-9.2.1.24-20120503. I found your tool PERI. It looks very simple. But I have question before I run this tool. Must I install adb drivers with this tool when I installed drivers with Asus Sync from their official website? Thanks for reply.

Yes, ASUS Sync drivers are for MTP data transfer, but the ADB drivers are simple enough to install, especially on windows 7.
It'll be quick and painless :D

Thank you very much. I am root :) Now I have one question: After I used this tool - Can I use standard function of Asus Transformer TF101 Android 4.0.3 - Encrypt tablet? (it encrypts all tablet) Won't it be a problem?
Thanks for reply.

Thanks, I go encrypt it. But OTA updates - Do you think automatic updates from ASUS? For example: In future can I automatic update my Asus Transformer TF101 on new version of Android or new version of Asus firmware over wifi?
Thanks for reply.

Good stuff

As requested, I updated my rooting OP with instructions for TF300 and TF201 users to use it.
I've finished the .zip, uploading on .2 - .3 mb upload speed now..... -_-
Hopefully up tonight! L:D
Thanks
it's cool and the users will appreciate.
I note your OP on the TF300 index ;)

Regards

The apk is in Beta and mostly done, I want to be able to be SURE it's 100% bug free for all 3 tabs (101 201 and 300) so i need to rely on some external testing.
Patience young padawan -- Err something..
A few days -- I hope.
All pending on testers and results.

    TF101, SL101 and TF101G on ICS firmwares anything else is untested.
    Also should work on TF201 and TF300T on ICS ONLY!
    For Windows, tested on windows 7 x64 bit, xp 32 bit and windows 7 32 bit.
    Your data will be retained, unless you wipe in TWRP or something :p

    UPDATE:
    Added V0.41 which includes TWRP
    Also V0.42 which is even newer TWRP!

    apk not working sofar :[

    If you have a TF201, or TF300T, this will work still, but you need to replace the included file 'recoveryblob' with a recoveryblob from a recovery from your device (download the .zip file for the recovery you want, and extract the 'blob' or 'recoveryblob' file from it and place in PERI folder, naming it recoveryblob and overwriting the otherone!)


    Initiate project-PERI:
    Since there's no one-clicks that I've stumbled across, and many people are asking if this-that etc.. works with .24, I've made an easy one-click (ish) that guides you through it and runs the necessary commands.
    Thanks to:
    Team Rouge (I used their touch recovery version)
    Wolf (For his method to flash recovery!)
    Roach (Bootloop fix)
    Members here for testing help :] (I'm bad about typos...)

    V0.42- TwrpyIndri Cutting Edge - 14.15MB
    Version 0.42 -- Recommended (TWRP 2.5.0.0)

    Just unzip it to a folder anywhere and run the .bat file!
    Works with or without MicroSD, just let the device totally reboot (E.G. don't let any commands run at the splash screen or in recovery.)
    Fixed reboot confusion in V0.2 -Didn't fix in v0.2, Did fix in v0.3 though

    If I did anything wrong, or offended any devs, killed someone's cat, or something else, Please let me know!

    Post here with any questions or problems, I tested this and everything worked fine, but still consider it as final? release candidate 4.
    Did it work?
    This should do everything needed, and all is included in zip!

    If you want to skip any steps that you've already done if you mess up, just unplug the USB and pretend that it isn't throwing 'device not found' errors, then get back to where you were.
    If superuser isn't installing but you have recovery, try 'fix permissions' in recovery. -- Fixed (hopefully) in V0.2

    Read the readme and run as administrator! Video-tut is here!
    **Also attached to thread.**

    Tl;DR: This installs recovery and walks you through rooting your device from total stock. It includes everything you need, download is above.
    It also functions as a unbrick for soft-bricks where you can access ADB or if your recovery is bootlooping and won't flash anything.

    If you already have root: This tool will work on an already rooted tf to install Rouge's latest Touch Recovery (Reads from internal and external)
    --if you're in a bootloop and can boot into android via-cold-boot, this will fix it! :D--
    So if anyone who's already rooted doesn't mind doing further testing on it that would be great, the more reports the better!

    If the superuser.zip isn't giving you root (For whatever reason o_O) try flashing the attached SuperSU I packed.

    How to use PERI to root your Transformer!
    **coming soon**

    Unbricking/fix recovery bootloop:
    I added an unbricking help/feature in V0.4 that'll help with bootloops or softbricks. PERI will help you through it.

    **If you want to use the 'I'm already rooted just flash recovery' feature, you need to have given adb su access already!!!**

    I bricked my tab on purpose using ROM manager to test the unbricker. Seems to work fine, let me know.
    It might have bugs though and not work, in which case 'Don't taze me bro!'
    I pretty much copy-pasted roach's bootloop fix.

    If I helped, click thanks! :)

    The .bat is open-source, download the .zip and take a look at the .bat with notepad++, if you like.

    I'll be releasing an On TF101 / TF101G / Slider android App that does the process without needing a computer in a few days, that'll be Version 1.0 of PERI. Glad it's working so well ;]
