ASUS MeMO Pad 7 (ME176CX) Not updating to lollipop
- Thread starter Dublin2275
- Start date
Updating this tab to lollipop isn't a good idea (lots of bugs) but have a look here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/memo-pad-7/general/me176c-x-collection-roms-updates-t3012965
If you have a ww sku try to put this file (http://dlcdnet.asus.com/pub/ASUS/EeePAD/ME176C/UL-K013-WW-12.10.1.36_KK-user.zip) on the root of you microSD card and reboot the tab, it should try to flash it (well not on first reboot, you'll have a notification asking you if you want to do the update); if this doesn't work either try the nandroid (https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24052804347832070) from jerbear, it was done on an unmodified me176c with lollipop, you must use the tethered recovery, make a backup, reboot, replace your back up files by the files of the nandroid, then reuse the tethered recovery and restore from the new back up. Ask jerbear from this forum for further explanation, i'm just a user who had the same problem, not a specialist.

Ps; the system will do an update after the nandroid restore, it is an older version of the me176c's lollipop rom.
I have the ME176CX not the ME176C i think that has something to do with it
No, it's the same rom, the difference between them is just the quality of the cams, btw i have a 176cx too and can guaranty you it works.
Does that update mess up the current root i have? Will i need to do a fresh install?
And also if i do a factory reset will i still have the update or can i get it all the way back?
You'll have to root again indeed, but remember what i said in the start, you're likely to regret it if you manage to do the update, it's a very bugged one.

a factory reset doesn't give you the original rom, the update will still be there, the downgrade is a very tricky process, and i answered you only because you asked, but i repeat myself, you should really keep your tab the way it is now, i regretted having done the update for months until someone finally found a way to roll-back to kitkat.
With lollipop you'll have:
-memory leak (can be fixed anyway).
-overheating.
-crashes.
-apps closing themselves or refusing to launch.
-random reboots of the tab itself.
-some users even had clock issues on the tab (too slow).
-others had battery life issue (tablet discharging too fast).
