ya this just downloaded on its own for me also. it probably will break root so i really dont want to download it! anyone know what it is?
 
It does not break root. I installed it, on XDA they are saying it if a GPS fix.

Edit: It does break root. Guess I should have read up more on it. I now know about root keeper for when I gain root access again.

It broke root for me. And I was stupid and forgot to use OTA Rootkeeper. So now I have no root, and no way to reroot.
 
same here...went on what this dude said like an idiot without checking voodoo first and got screwed. just got this yesterday and no i am left without root!!!
 
Any improvement to wifi, or is it just GPS?

Some on transformerforums.com are reporting significant improvement in GPS locking. Also there may be some graphical fixes.

Just updated mine tonight. HUGE gps improvement. Almost on par with my evo 3d. Haven't tried it in a moving vehicle or anything. Check out the pics.

Prime stats from same location. Just as many satellites, not quite as good on the accuracy.

I would also like to point out that my wifi seems MUCH better also. More testing needed there, before I could pull 10-13 mbps on my phone, and maybe 4 with my prime. Now am hitting 8-13 on the prime. Hopefully this is the fix this thing needs. May end up keeping it after all.

I went to check out the new update available for the Prime and this is what I get. " There is a system update for your divice. Please check notifications" and then it switches to say this "Failed to connect to the internet, Please check your internet connection" I am sitting right beside my router and all other programs that need the internet are working. Where do I find the notification to update because there is nothing prompting me to upgrade or anything

It's telling you to check the notification window that pops up when you hit the clock at the bottom right of your screen.
 
Can people post the firmware numbers?

Maybe GPS version? W-Fi Version, Bluetooth Verision, Build number etc?

I checked for an update and it doesn't show anything available. Wondering if this is being pushed out slowly or what.

Yes please post the number because I am wondering if they maybe pulled the update or it was late getting to some people or mine did something without me knowing?
