ICS troubles

garpunkal said:

Hi,

Anyone else having the following issues with ICS (stock, rooted):

• Locked screen, using power button doesn't work
• Reboot and stuck on Asus Logo?

both resulting in pressing on and power up to restart..


seems like this update isn't fully tested. I haven't done a full wipe, I simply updated through OTA... should I try this? If I do, can I do an ADB backup and restore?

Thanks folks

its most likely because you were rooted and did modifications that caused the OTA to fail and mess something up.

The OTA itself was tested by ASUS, its you who did mods to the tablet that made the OTA fail for you. You'll most likely have to wipe and start all over. Or just DL a custom ROM.

I wiped, totally cleaned the system, installed WW latest full blob then the update, and it occured. Just to note, my only mod was root, nothing else.

ok.

I still can't understand why this OTA on stock (rooted but unmodified) has problems.

I shouldn't have to wipe it.

Why did you do this; installed WW latest full blob then the update

Full wipe and then install the Full ICS WW. Thats all that should be needed.

I have no real answers for you.
But I would assume its cause ICS updates the framework and countless other stuff that can't just be "updated". You would have thought they would have made the OTA auto Wipe. I would have. I could be completely off tho. Maybe its just broke. Lol

- No ICS blob currently available
- This is the exact way everyone (I mean, every home user, without development background, etcetera, the "noobs") did it, who got the errors

So basically I did how officially it's done.

You're wrong. Asus made it in a way it shouldn't affect the system, yet, in some cases it does.

I bet people (non tech saavy) would throw a fit if the update did a full wipe, even if it had a warning beforehand.

I swear Asus should fix these problems and they are more OTA updates issues and not the fact I didn't wipe.

Other people must be having these problems?!!?
