New Android Version! 4.4.2 KitKat OTA update received. - Asus Transformer TF701

Hello, fellow XDA users! I just got an update notification from ASUS on my TF701T OTA. Here are a couple of pics as proof and basic version.
They have remade the UI completely, using their new ZenUI on the newer Transformers. I'm going to see what they've changed in further detail, but some older apps, like MyLibrary, are no longer supported. Also, this update is not on ASUS' website as of this moment. I'm not sure if they will upload it even... just like the last one.
If anyone else has this update, please post here and share if there is anything radically changed/fixed!

Giod news! Let me guess, TowelRoot not working anymore?

I've received the update as well. Towelroot does not seem to work after a short try.

Changing to ZenUI may be the reason this took so long to happen. I'm still waiting to receive the update but I'm looking forward to it. Good to see they haven't abandoned the TF701!

Bittersweet. There is an update but root through towelroot is gone. I'm on the fence on this one.
TF701 / TF700 / NEXUS 7 (2013)

I hope sbdags can update CROMI-X with this...

Can somebody please try the different towelroot versions on the latest OTA? Please? Please?

He will if they release the firmware...
Can someone grab the OTA file before installing it? It should be in some temp folder. Not sure where unfortunately..
What's the best/worst about the Zen UI?

Unbelievable... I thought for sure ASUS had abandoned us! This is great, unexpected news!
Yes -- someone *needs* to upload that OTA file so our devs can take advantage of the new build. In fact, the file should be thrown up on a repository for anyone to try!

Good news - looks like CROMi-X lives!! Version 7 as soon as I an get my hands on it

I just tried it and it worked (I opened a video from a flash drive I have). But there is something peculiar now:
At first, I plugged the drive in the USB 3.0 port and I got a notification about inserted storage media. I opened it from there and it went into the stock ASUS File Manager. From there everything was a-OK. Then I tried opening it from ES File Explorer. The USBdisk1 was there and everything was as it should be but there was another "drive" below my flash drive. It was just a string of numbers. When I tried opening it, ES asked if I wanted it to be the default manager for this drive. I just said "yes" and then it blurted out an error that the drive couldn't be opened. From there on the USB flash drive just disappeared. A simple unplug and plug back in fixed that problem. Nothing was even damaged. The random-string-of numbers-drive was still there upon replug, though.
tl;dr: Everything works for me but there is SOMETHING ASUS might've changed around.
If your flash drives don't open, first try the tried method of plugging the docked tablet into power, turning it off, booting into recovery, unplugging for a short while so you can navigate the menu, going to the "cold-boot" option (middle button), pressing it and IMMEDIATELY plugging the power back in as it is cold booting. It usually fixes any dock ailments I might have (until I dock it in a few times ). If that doesn't help you, the most radical measure is to factory reset the tablet while it is docked and IN the power outlet. If all else fails, try your warranty...

Thank you @sbdags that is exactly what I experienced... Cromix soon?

Quick launch asus apps are gone
Looks like they removed this stuff.... Not sure how I feel about it, on one hand, I never really used that stuff... On the other, removing features is never a situation that I applaud. Anyone know if you can re-enable the quick launch?

I can't get the kernel otherwise - and too difficult to work out their patched ota system

Hmm in a way I'm glad.
You won't get it back though as it was built into their framework - presumably not part of their zenui.

Yeah, I am glad in a way too, makes one less button that I accidently press because I picked up my wife's tf700 and think I am pressing "back". Just like Asus to remove a feature with an update... anyone remember when you could adjust your hdmi output on tf700 to scale or zoom? I do... still weeping for my lost feature.

[ROM] TweakerRom 1.1.0

The first (very mildly) customized ROM for NVIDIA SHIELD... Tweaker.
For those who tried SHIELD on launch day (or early on before the OTA was applied), it had a dashboard with bigger graphics that were easier to read. Now, it's just icons. I don't like the icons. So a little bit of hacking together pieces (and adding SuperUser while I was at it) resulted in TweakerRom.
Don't expect much difference, at least not until I get CM-10.2 done for SHIELD. But this has a nicer interface, in my opinion, and is based on the latest OTA 1.1 release (with the SHIELD UI from the original image)
You need to install a SuperUser app (I highly recommend SuperSU) but you don't need to use recovery to do it.
Download:
http://goo.im/devs/agrabren/shield/tweaker/ShieldTweaker-1.1.zip
Reserved for changelog and stuff
Reserved for Video! It WILL come.
This is great! Will flash this tonight once I can get CWRM to flash properly in fastboot...
Awesome! I'm glad to see the first step being made, but I'm going to hold out until 10.2. I'm getting lazy in my old-ish age.:silly:
Sorry BUT:
I hate to be "that guy" but could you put up a mirror or can I? These are my speeds:

I just finished Unlocking and Flashing your recovery when the download finished (YES I unlocked it just for this ROM). I have to say: I LOVE the interface, I never got to see it but it is SO much better! Thanks for pioneering the development over here, there isn't much at all... I plan to do some theming stuff once I get around to it XD

All you asked was if you could get the update while having this rom. I did answer the question. Was not trying to be difficult. Next time I guess I will just say no and you figure can the rest out.

The SHIELD is a bit of an unusual exception here - most of their OTAs seem to be full system images, instead of delta patches.
While this makes the OTAs much larger, it also makes them much more robust.

[Q] running 10.26.1.7 and getting update notification for 10.14.1.28

Today I got a system update notification so I installed it (I'm running stock Asus rom; I was hoping for android 4.4 :laugh without really giving it much attention.
After it installed the update, it kept showing the Asus boot screen 'ASUS Inspiring Innovation . Persistent Perfection' with the moving circles underneath the text.
After half an hour I decided it took too long so I pressed the power button but it again kept hanging at that same screen. :crying:
Finally I wiped the tablet and it came back to life. But there was something odd, at 'About' I saw I was running android 4.2.2 in stead of 4.3 I was running before the failed update. I tried checking for an update but there was none according to the tablet
After I downloaded WW_epaduser_10_26_1_7_UpdateLauncher.zip from the website and extracting it to the sd card root, it started updating :fingers-crossed:. This time it went well and I was running 4.3 again (too bad I have to restore everyting) but when I checked at the tablet if there was an update available, it said there was! Except the version number wasn't higher but lower! it wants to download 10.14.1.28 while I'm running 10.26.1.7.
Has anyone else got this false update notification? is there something wrong @ the Asus servers?

The same issue here.. I did an update today hoping that it will be a new version of android and I did not really look very well at what it is doing as last time it worked flawless!
After this update my tablet is dead! I tried hard reset and re-installing the firmware and nothing works!
I don't want to wipe and restore everything !
I just received the update as well. But I didn't go through the ordeal you all went through. It went quite smoothly actually!
I also received a firmware update that was very new. It's the 10.26.1.18 The kernel was also updated to 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?

Also not rooted ...
Same issue here bought in France and I had so many issues with keyboard = switching to QWERTY while should be AZERTY plus
also some letter keyboard shifts and sometimes I need to press 3 times before activating an item that I was happy to find an update today !!!
And no I am stuck on the spinning logo: (
Unfortunately I am quite new in the "wiping" procedure... Could someone point me in the correct direction how to correctly to wipe out,
for updating the firmware I have also a question... they mention something on SW version but I cannot find this information as cannot access the pad anymore
*How to check SW version of your Eee Pad Transformer Infinity TF700T?

Would appreciate your kind assistance to try to get back on track...
Thank you

[ROM] OctamodWear - Stock + root + busybox + Reboot2Recovery

CAUTION!! This ROM is mostly made for developers and people interested in developing for Samsung Gear Live. I take no responsabilities for possible damages to your device.
Hi everyone.
I open a new thread here in General because I have not enough posts for posting in Development, and I don't want to spam other threads only for posting there. Moderators can move this if they want.
We have here the first Custom ROM for Samsung Gear Live: OctamodWear
Currently we have very few new features, but this is only the beginning.
Features
- OctamodWear 0.2
- KMV78Y based
- Fully deodexed
- Root
- Busybox
- WearControl, the system management app. Reboot2Recovery is gone; install WearControl from PlayStore to ensure you always have the latest version: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=octathorp.wearcontrol
- ES File Explorer and Quick System Info preinstalled
- OctamodWear 0.1
- KMV78X based
- Root
- Busybox
- Reboot2Recovery, it's an app made by me that let you reboot in recovery mode (interesting for use with custom recoveries).
- ES File Explorer and Quick System Info preinstalled (mainly, for developing purposes. I included them because it was a pain to install again with each data-wipe during tests).
Important
- Superuser permissions (root) are enabled by default, without Superuser or similar app. So, whatever app that you install and require root permissions will obtain them. That's due to the fact that there is no Superuser app for Android Wear yet.
- We need unlocked bootloader in order to be able to install the ROM (fastboot oem unlock).
- This system (Android Wear) is still very recent, and there are many things we don't know, despite its similarities with Android.
Work-in-progress...
- Get a better battery consumption.
- Improve performance
- Other things I have not thought about yet
Installation
If you don't have unlocked bootloader, follow this steps:
- Connect using ADB and run "adb reboot bootloader"
- In the bootloader screen, run "fastboot oem unlock". Warning!! This will wipe the device.
- Once you have unlocked the bootloader, the next step is to flash the provided system.img, using "fastboot flash system system_octamodWear.img"
- Done!

Original thread: http://www.htcmania.com/showthread.php?t=868149
I will try to help you if you need it, but please, there are a lot of pages on the web where you can get information about ADB drivers or bootloader unlocking effects, so please, use Google.
Furthermore, I don't have much free time due to work and personal life, so this ROM will not have a very fast development. My main purpose is to give people something they can start working with, and make a great development community.
Enjoy it!
You sir are a genius!
I borked my phone installing TWRP and flashing this ROM was the only way I fix my watch! Thank you!

It is pre rooted as stated above. And yes its very good. Includes a file manager, which is handy....
Dev, presumably we should not install any OTA's?
This is the best day EVER!! Thank you so very much!!
Hey @octathorp I just received an update a couple days ago and did it... I assume the update would not be compatible with this ROM, or can I still install this ROM? Thanks!
Update is KMV78Y by the way.
Hi.
I have not received the update yet, so i don't really know. It should work well, because this is only system.img, but i'm gonna update the base rom as soon as I receive the update.
One thing i forgot to post some days ago... I've made an app that lets you reboot your device into recovery or bootloader, as well as changing CPU governors. It's Reboot2Recovery replacement, and it will be included in next release. Meanwhile, you can get the app from Play Store, searching "WearControl" (sorry i cannot post links yet).
I'll update the OP.

Return to Stock?
What would be the best way to return to stock? My guess would be to flash the system img that Adam Outler posted but want to make sure that I'm correct. I got excited and flashed this without backing up on TWRP first.
Hey is it possible to put the ROM in flashable form for TWRP?! Would make it much easier to install

That's a good idea I will try in next days, but only as a concept. If it works well, i will try to launch next update through a flashable update.zip

Awesome man! I know you said in OP that you are very busy and stuff, would be appreciated though if you got the flashable working, then I can flash stuff on the watch like I do on my phone, so easy.... instead of having to go thru ADB!
I've installed the rom but I don't see any of the included applications listed in the launcher I'm using them.
I can access them though using start tho. Anyone know how to get them into the launcher?

I've installed the rom but I don't see any of the included applications listed in the launcher I'm using them.
I can access them though using start tho. Anyone know how to get them into the launcher?

I use the Mini Launcher and all the icons appear that way....without going to start first!
I lost the update a few days ago, and oddly enough it popped up right away after I rebooted my watch when I installed this rom..I swiped left and it told me it was downloaded, and ready to install..I clicked ok..and it took me to TWRP and didnt install lol...anyway, all is running smooth...lets see how battery life it compared to stock

That would be great, thank you. I will use it in case I don't receive Y update.
I use WearMini Launcher and have no problems at all.

Battery life should be the same as stock, as there are no power optimizations yet, but you could try WearControl with powersave mode instead.

I use wear mini launcher too but cant get es file explorer, quick system info or reboot2recovery to show. Very odd
I've updated first post with new OctamodWear 0.2 version. Sorry it is not an update.zip yet, but i'm working on it
thank ya!!! The dowload is painfully slow ...around 2 hours?? The first time I got it,. the md5s didnt match
First thanks for the first custom rom for the Gear Life!
Does anybody have a mirror? Dev Host is really slow, 1 hour to download 146mB :silly:
Would be much appreciated :highfive:
I dont actually use any file sharing sites myself

[ADT1][ROM]Stock molly images - Unbricking

Introduction:
This is a restore zip for restoring/debricking a molly device (ADT-1).
The contents are as close to stock as possible, and is intended to fix broken otas.

FAQ:
Will this fix my <non molly device>?
No, this rom is only for mollys, it will brick any other device.
Will OTAs work after flashing this?
Yes, that is the purpose of this
Do I need to be on a certain bootloader to use this?
No, it includes the original bootloader.
Do I need a custom recovery to flash this?
Yes, the stock recovery will not accept update zips that are not signed by google
Is this rooted?
No, the stock rom is not rooted, neither is this
My device won't finish booting after flashing.
If you were not originally on the same rom, you may need to do a factory reset to finish the process. Android does not like rom downgrades without a factory reset

Awesome! Thanks! I needed a way to restore my OTA abilities after rooting and doing some testing for someone. Did you make these yourself? And how? If you don't mind me asking. I didn't think dd would work without root.

All custom recoveries have root by default, my ADT1 isnt rooted, I did all my work though CWM.

Yes you need a usb keyboard to use CWM currently, there may be an update in the future to enable the dev button on the back to select in cwm like it does in fastboot. Until if/when that happens you either need a keyboard or to do everything manually via adb.
I don't have a keyboard however, I did all my work/testing with only adb.

Thanks for the articulate follow-up. I started to do things manually via ADB. :good:
anyone can post a complete lpx13D CWM backup , stock recovery or at least system.img
I've messed up my ADT1 and it can't seem to take the image I've found yet
@TheManii Are there any custom roms or anything like that for the ADT-1? I just got one in the mail from I assume google. I'm ready to begin , but I don't honestly know what people are interested in seeing on this device I have a madcatz mojo using all the adt-1 binaries except audio running cm-12 and android tv from this device. So if anyone is interested in that let me know please.

Hello UD,
There isn't any custom roms for the ADT-1 (So yours would be the first)
I for one would love to see a more recent build than the last OTA (LPX13D - OCT 29th) There have been rumors that we'd get the final Android Lollipop but nothing has surfaced.
How much work is involved in rolling an AOSP+ADT-1 Binaries+Android TV dependencies?
Cheers Rob.

It's possible https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Og-GDeRhJno but I could not get all the apps correctly working the main one being playstore , but I will try again look at the android build number and build date. I basically made a google apps package based on the adt-1 this is before I had one so possibly now I can get us an aosp 5.0.2 base working the Mojo in terms of hardware is similar to the adt-1 and for me to boot 5.0 on the mojo I needed adt-1 updated tegra 4 binaries so this shouldn't be hard at all once I work out the playstore issues.

Wow that is really impressive work, The current build on the ADT-1 is flaky at best for me, i'd love to see how a more recent build performs and if it prevents me from having to do a daily reboot.
Cheers Rob.
@Unjustified Dev just got mine on Tuesday. are you thinking releasing sources on your team github. i saw that a device and kernel repository was created but they are empty.
PS: nice to talk to you again been a while.

Android P Beta available for Nokia 7 Plus

Hey guys!
It seems Android P beta is available for selective models of Nokia 7 Plus.
https://developer.android.com/preview/devices/
The eligible devices list contains this phone.
I have ordered mine and will be receiving it in 2 days. Meanwhile, if anybody wants to give a try, please let us know how it is.
Cheers!!
Edit: If you are planning to upgrade to this Developer Preview 2, better download both files including the DP2 Beta and the Rollback Zip in the 1st instance. Once you have both files, proceed to upgrade. Many people are facing issues to download the rollback zip.

It'll wipe your data, and it's installing for me right now. I'm thinking about uploading the update here but I'm unsure if it will work for others too. (as-in if it's signed for devices based on their IMEI's)

Same here.. I was amazed too.. I am just worried about the roll back procedure due to the locked bootloader

That's bad but nonetheless, a good news. Uploading the update here won't do anything as the device has to be enrolled into the beta programme and IMEI gets bound with the update. So, that Nokia knows which phones are on beta programme.
Do share your first Impressions after the update gets installed.

I guess the rollback will work just the way beta programme works. You will have to unregister your device and an OTA would be sent to your device to get you back to stable software.

Installed it, and it didn't wipe my data. There's some visual bugs sometimes, but it's probably fixed by clean installing the update. I don't have time to do so at the moment, so I'm unsure of it. Otherwise, it works pretty good! Here's some screenshots: https://photos.app.goo.gl/nj9Zaw1HQWQeOe4l1
Cool! I was not happy with the wiping stuff so I didn't end up flashing it but I'll wait until more people confirm it actually works without wiping.

Can you take a screenshot of the launcher it comes with, because I'm very interested about how different it is from the Pixel Launcher?

Nothing new, still looks the same (for me)
E: You can restore the normal navbar in the stock launcher settings (long press on empty space in home screen and press on home settings)
https://www.nokia.com/en_int/phones/developer does not let me enroll. N7 Plus TA-1046 T-Mobile Netherlands EU.
Just a warning to everyone else wanting to try this. In the Release Notes of the dev preview (https://developer.android.com/preview/release-notes) they say:
This release isn't Compatibility Test Suite (CTS) approved. Apps that depend on CTS-approved builds might not work normally on supported devices.

So there's a good chance that Snapchat, Netflix, Pokémon Go or several banking apps refuse to work. Also...
Devices cannot communicate with NFC readers.

Even u can get old navigation style
Cam is of nokia but 2x not implemented as on p version
Others still have to test
after the update, my icons were removed the brightness is so high i set it on 25%its working good there is no always on display.
Did anyone notice the roll back build update zip? It was v2.13b 8.1.
Switching language gave me a reboot (dutch to english). After that i automatically entered recovery mode. There the phone told me to factory reset because it could not boot or retry booting again.
Retry did the job. (Thankfully..)
