New update 12-24-11

[motoprof]

I turned on my Transformer today and found a new update. It doesn't appear to be much though. I was hoping for ICS.

Does anyone know what this update entails?

I also received it. I was looking and could not find anything saying what the update entails.

This update will break root and you will not be able to get it back (at least for now) unless your Transformer is an early B70 model or lower.

Build Number: 8.6.5.21-20111216
Stability update.
HDMI fix for newer hdtv's.
Various apps updated.
Input lag reduction.

The firmware came for me on 12-24 and it was like a gift from santa! I was trying to hook up my transformer tomy panasonic HDTV but the tv wouldn't recognize the HDMI input (a well documented issue). I checked for new firmware and miraculously found one, applied it and then my panny could see my transformer. It was a Christmas Miracle!! Thanks Santa!

If you have upgraded to .21 and would like to downgrade back to .19 to root your B70, 80, 90 model TF, a new way to do this has been found.

If you wish to stay on .21, disregard this post.

I am completely new to Android. My Asus Transformer is on HTK75.Revolver, 3.2.1 version. Can I do the update from Asus website (SKU WW version). The reason for the update is support for my Panasonic tv. Thanks!

Welcome to Android. Click on settings, about tablet, then firmware update.

I went there but there is no such thing as upgrade available. Does it mean that there is no upgrade available?

You're running a custom ROM. Ota update will not work.
However Revolver ROM has been updated to the latest release. Just download and flash via CWM recovery

 

[zet213]

Sorry, what is that CWM recovery?

 

[zet213]

I found that CWM recovery and installed it, but it asks me about model number/name and I don't see Asus Transformer 101 on the list. What should I do?

 

[baseballfanz]

I assumed that since you have Revolver running you already had CWM recovery installed.

Anyway I think you're trying to use ROM manager to install the CWM recovery? It's not compatible with the Transformer. Use RecoveryInstaller found here [APP] Recovery Installer - flash CWM with a Click - xda-developers

After you have CWM install boot into recovery and flash ROM

Sorry, I still quite don't know what to do. I downloaded that Recovery Installer and tried to use that CWM recovery, but my Asus Transformer is still not on a list of available models. Can you give me step by step instruction?
