Jelly Bean OTA

Something I just realized is I've never used (don't think I've had) that typical drop down menu when you drag from the top middle of the screen. I've always had notifications appear down by the clock. Is this an Asus thing or do we actually have the typical Android, like I have with my phone, drag down menu?

With Google Now, I have to drag up from the bottom left of the screen where the Back and Home buttons are instead of the middle.

great catch on the drop up (?) menu for Google Now. I didn't realize that was there.

as for the drop down menu from the top of the screen, I don't seem to have that on mine.

I just remembered that pulling down from the top brings down the list of Running apps.

now I see what you're saying. Guess I didn't read your previous post clearly.

Has anyone tried watching a flash video through the stock browser after the 4.1.1/Jelly Bean update? My dad uses my TF300 currently and he watches a lot of Flash Videos. I don't want to update the tablet to 4.1.1 yet if there are serious incompatibility or problems with Flash and Jelly Bean.

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.
