Yup, works like a champ. Didn't lose flash like advertised either. Still not as fast as the Dolphin Beta browser, but more stable and fluid as ever.

I got the update this morning and my TF300 seems to run much smoother, and seems to have a faster response. Chrome's performance seems to also have improved.

So far the update is a Winner! Not like the disaster ICS update Sprint sent out to all the Samsung Galaxy S2 4G. That was a train wreck!

Something i just noticed is the url bar on Dolphin HD is permanently visible at the top now. So glad because that was my only issue with the app.

I just got it myself, but now I also have a system update notice that, when tapped, gives me a message to hit ok to. The following screen says "System Downgrade Available". Anyone see this?

*Found the problem - had a system update stored on my sdcard. Deleted it and the message went away. Move along, move along, nothing to see here.

Few things I noticed: a) the swipe up to activate Google Now from the lower left menu keeps is in line with the the way Google Now works on the Galaxy Nexus. It starts from a swipe up from the lower menu area on the Galaxy Nexus. b) Although the device is definitely moving faster, I have noticed that the launch of Google search is as slow as it is now on the Galaxy Nexus. c) Something I just happened to notice is that the stock Email exchange app on the tablet now has conversation capability. When you look at emails in a list, you see a little number in grey that shows the number of emails connected to a subject. Then when you click on the email, it brings up a window that shows all of the emails that are a part of the conversation. Definitely appreciate this.

I'm trying to find a listing of the new features and changes.

Got up this morning to the Rom update page... that was a nice surprise... everything seems to be ok... I'm not sure what "Direct Wifi" is, there was a warning on the update page about it. And, of course, Flash not being supported...

Mine got stuck yesterday at 89% (think that is when it hit 50% on the battery) and I couldn't get it to pick back up. I restarted it in hopes that it would pick it back up but now it says there isn't an update when I manually check. Well actually, it first says there is one then immediately changes it to say there isn't one. Hopefully it will fix itself, but I'm thinking it sees the partial download and that is throwing it off. Anyone have any idea where a partial file would be saved? I've looked around and haven't found anything obvious yet.

I would say either try going to the downloads (applications list ==> downloads and when you see it there, delete it, then soft reset (to clear any cache's), and then try again. Or go to the same downloads area, click on it and it might say it was incomplete and start again. You might want to try the 2nd option first since it would be easier, etc.

Thanks for the idea. I looked in the Downloads and it wasn't listed there. I've also looked in the root directory, internal sd card root directory and any download folder I could find and I'm not finding anything. Guess I may have to wait until they release it for download and install it via sd card.

Got the update. Impressed. No issues noted so far and the tablet is much more responsive than it used to be. Flash is still working (as well as it ever did), at least with FireFox Beta.

**jtowndawg** · 08-20-2012, 05:33 AM

I got it and everything is working great. Flash is working with dolphin hd.

**arsieorgano** · 08-20-2012, 10:57 AM

Thanks for the update, I will be checking from my end.

No more HBO GO with Jelly Bean.

**ksb63** · 08-20-2012, 04:55 PM

Wonder why your hbogo doesn't work, mine works fine after update

**skatedaddy** · 08-23-2012, 02:33 AM

Has anyone in the UK got the update?

Okay 2 new things I just noticed:

a) the stock email app not only groups by conversation and displays the total count, but it also shows a brief body of the 1st message. I'd prefer it either show the most recent unread or the latest because it's a bit harder to find the specific message you're looking for when you first look.

b) then in the settings, under sync options, they have now added the wonderful and long awaited feature of peak and off-peak times and days like HTC has. Perfect for me who hates to have the phone both wasting energy syncing when it doesn't need to and sending notification alert sounds when I'm sleeping.

Now if we could just set the email search to default search the local inbox instead of going out and web searching the server, which would make searching must faster.

HBO GO works fine for me as well. Maybe you should uninstall and reinstall.

As an update I found the download yesterday and put this on my TF300 last night. So far everything seems to be working well. I still need to check and see if it fixed my calendar sync bug.

Thought I'd chime in and say I just got the Jelly Bean update. I'm in Canada.

Everything is working well so far!

**TvTechGuru** · 08-25-2012, 03:57 AM

I got the update the other day and I must say this is the fastest and smoothest my TF300 has run yet since I bought it in May of this year.

I had to see what all the buzz was about Google Now and honestly I don't see the hype. What's so great about it? I thought it was an app but you have to press the Google search in the upper left to launch and then all I really see is weather. Not that exciting. Maybe I'm missing something I don't know.

check out page two of this forum. I provided some links to setting up Google Now and a few videos. It builds over time when searching and depending on your location.

also, to access it, you can swipe up from the lower left of the screen.

have you tried using the stock browser? Flash is working for me on that.
Not sure about going back to ICS. I'll do some research and get back to you.

My experience:
JB update over existing setup - Flash working.
After Factory Reset - Flash not working

After going to the following XDA Page and following steps - Flash Apps that were not working, are(i.e.-NasaTV, WGNTV). Stock browser is playing Flash. And No Wait Boxes, so far.

Pros or Cons, I'll leave it up to much smarter than myself. But it worked for me.

Hope this helps.
