The features in this update are as follows:
Improved WiFi performance on 5GHz band
Performance optimizations for encrypted devices
Fixed intermittent charging issue

Just checked but no update available for me yet

It's available now!

Towelroot still works if anyone was wondering.

I'm getting better internet connection

Update went with a hitch. Rerooted my LTE with Towel root, no problems. They

Rerooted
I received the update about 2 hours ago. I am on CWM. When I flashed the update I was asked if I wanted to keep my recovery and my recovery was not affected. I did however have to reroot by flashing supersu in recovery. Re flashed Viper4Android and re-enabled xposed no problem. I can not wait for Lollipop for this device. I have the Nexus 5 and gave the final Dev preview a run and it was awesome. There was a 'Miscellaneous' battery drain that I could not pinpoint so I reverted. If it weren't for that I would have kept it on my device. It will sure look awesome on this phone. I think it would be cool if there were more Nvidia green in the OS for the new colorful Lollipop 5.0.

This update broke my favourite game. It know sucks to be a shield tablet owner.

I tried this game and its working fine here, try a factory reset...

I've already did that 2 times
Cars: fast as a lightning is also giving me a force close
Edit: managed to fix this one by changing language to English, not the first time i see this on a gameloft game but was working fine before the update.

Installed this update yesterday and today I'm having problems with touch screen, it goes crazy! Like detecting more fingers than the one i'm using to touch it.. LOL
Maybe a problem of the screen protector or could be a software problem??

Hello, can somebody please tell me if the bootloader is re-locked after this OTA update is installed?

None of the others did and nvidia allows you to unlock the bootloader so I doubt they'd make an effort to do that. There isn't anything to be worried about either way.

I haven't seen any issues myself but I wouldn't go pulling your screen protector if it was working fine with it before... I have even been swiping out my messages on the forum with my tablet and any device that had touch screen issues before would mess up doing that.

New firmware release on Friday

Asus support have just told me that there will be a new firmware release on Friday.
The release "is expected to fix a couple of issues with 3.2 (apps related)."
I've asked if it fixes the compass calibration issue. Finger's crossed!
Let's hope it doesn't break root for the rest of us
Sent from my SPH-D700 using Tapatalk
Great news. Thanks!
Let's see if I get the OTA after removing CWM.
Regards.
Sounds great!
Wish the problems I got would also solved with this version.
TF101 bug list.
Firmware : official 3.2
Model: TF101 16GB
1. Static(photo) shifted to left by 2/3. The right side became black. No problem for live wallpapers.
2. Short cut on home screen became black. Widget content is also black. Became normal after reboot.
3. If apk calls YouTube apk. The screen became half dark but not freezed. But TF101 YouTube apk still work fine.
4. Sometimes got messed lines on screen lower part. Disappear after running other apk.

If it cures the wifi problem, opera problem, adw problem, irritable bowel problem let me know and i'll install 3.2
Awesome ...wonder when will it have Netflix support though
Just don't install, right? I'm sure a dev will incorporate the additions to their respective roms

hopefully this will cure the dimming and apparent hang when you launch and reference an object with multiple viewers. Rotating the screen back and forth is getting a bit old.
You have to love the way Asus really stays on top of things with timely releases and bug fixes. It's why I bought an Asus instead of "that other brand".

Exactly. I didn't buy the Tab 10.1 because its still stuck on 3.1.... and also our keyboard dock just flat out pwns
Hopefully they will resolve some of the browser problems. Also the issue with having to rotate the screen after every power off.

I hope this too. I think they fixed some things while making 3G version firmware and it`s time to release them for the "regular" TF users. I hope they fix the browser because I spend 90% of my TF browsing. Hope it`s smooth and fix the rendering blocks on some sites.
I just rooted mine with Prime 1.7. It seems to be a bit laggy compared to the stock rom. How can I revert back to the stock, so that I could install this update when it comes out.
I wish they could fix the b70 thing so i can root my device!!

I bet there will be only one firmware for both models, WiFi only & 3G, because even the standard TF has a phone.apk.
Let's hope this time we'll see a real update. Last Friday they put 3.2 with release date 2011/08/12 on their website, but after I downloaded it to check, if it's really newer than the OTA relese, I found file date 2011/07/30 inside.
In my opinion the current release is a catastrophy, because of too many issues/bugs. That's why I refused to install it so far.
TF101 ftw!
OTA?
Is the upgrade OTA? Or will you need to do it manually?
Agreed, with the others who welcome the update, it has come pretty quickly. Making small incremental updates is the safest way to work, well done Asus.

5.0.1 OTA is here

Downloading now on sprint.
Update. Unfortunately the update did not resolve the duplicate SMS issue. On LTE, people are still receiving multiple copies of the same message.
Att nexus as well. No carrier interference. Yay.

Can anyone provide steps on how to update and disable encryption?
Can confirm on T-Moble as well. Although I didn't grab a screen, it just hit mine.
Sweet. I was reading that the OTA will roll out on the 15th. But today works better LOL.
Is anyone noticing any add-ons? My recipients are no longer getting duplicate messages.

So glad I came back to a nexus device! Wooo. Had enough of carrier interference and manufacturers taking their jolly ol' time. Oh not to mention, Locked bootloaders. Can not wait to get home from work and flash this. Hopefully some improvements to be had with the update.
I am still not sure how people are cranking 6+ hrs SOT. The best I have been able to do is just a bit more than 4 hrs.

Your device won't take the OTA if you have root. You can't even sideload it. You have to flash the factory image if you want to update.

I have a question. By any chance do you have your WiFi network set up to use two SSIDs (one for the 2.4Ghz channel and one for the 5Ghz)? If so, are you able to see and connect to the 5Ghz channel? I'm not able to with the new update. It was working fine on 5.1.1, though.
How do we know it's connected to either 2.4ghz or 5ghz? I know old android phones let you choose which but I'm not sure how to do your test on the note edge.

Actually I had this problem in 5.1.1 and after upgrading I don't see it anymore. I am not sure why your device is behaving this way. May be you can try a factory reset. One problem I do have is after every restart I am required to enter password as fingerprint process is not initialized. This is annoying at times. Overall experience is smooth otherwise.
And I flashed supersu 2.71. Works fine so far.

Not sure what you mean by "safe" but typically you just use Odin to flash full stock 5.1.1, do a factory reset in stock recovery afterwards and you're done.

I've heard a lot of mixed reviews of Google Fi. Which phone are you going to go with? I've thought about replacing my Note 4 DE with the Moto X Pure when they run it on sale again (was $319 a few days ago). But the Droid Z Force also looks nice.

Not really the place to discuss it so I'll keep it brief.
My girlfriend has a Nexus 5X. The phone is amazing, updates are quick and common. It operates perfectly on marshmallow with no noticeable issues. We live in bum**** and she still gets service wifi calling and texting is fine, and no contracts. We pay about 42 a month for hers with insurance.
Well one thing I noticed (not sure if it was this update or the last one) is that when you pick an application to use (like browser) it becomes the default. With the old OS it would ask you to use just once or make it the default. Arrgggg I prefer to pick the application as needed and not make it the actual default.

The MM update made this change to default app handling. I liked the old way too. Now if I want to change the default app I have to remember which app was set as default before I can make the change. Sometimes remembering which app was set as default isn't easy to do.
Deleted. Think was in wrong thread.
Been a long time sense I've posted anything in this forum.
I just went back to the Note 4 and did the MM update and have noticed a heavy draw on the battery compared to LP. Am wondering if letting it did cycle through a few time might correct the battery drain. Was on an iPhone for awhile, but for personal reasons came back android. Has anybody tried that yet. Have been temped to hard reset and start fresh to see if it fixes it.
This update has increased the battery draw on mine and it is running HOT! Need help.

OxygenOs broke android auto

Since the oxygenos 9.0.10 update android auto won't work as usual.
Waze hangs. Music apps are not reachable.
Homescreen works, google assistant works also.
Updating to 9.0.11 brings no solution.
Anyone else facing the same issues?

Yes.
There is a thread posted on XDA for same issue.
I got in touch with OnePlus, the asked for logs and I provided.
Looks like they have forgotten about the issue.
Some crazy guy on OP forums suggested me to get in touch with Google for them to fix Android Auto and Waze.
Try posting in OP forum with nasty language. Hopefully someone from customer support will get in touch with you.
My phone is in Service Center for camera stopped working issue, so I can't provide them with any logs again.

Unroot your phone and go back to stock.
No doubt you have installed the wrong update..
i.e. Not compatible for your area.
No one else has this problem so it must be something you've done either not rooted fully/properly or used a VPN to get the update which isn't for your region.

I think, It has nothing to do with Root or using VPN to update.

You know that the OTA is same across the globe unless you have T-Mobile version or maybe McLaren version.
Things have to be corrected. Especially on OnePlus device threads.

It's a bad root
"it's a bad root" ..... Really.. make sure that apps are not be optimized(battery) I ran into issues with my VPN (openvpn) because it was being optimized. Seems like op is being very aggressive with battery optimizing (explains great battery life).
My phone is rooted and has been on multiple firmwares since launch date. No issue with android auto.

I think a safetynet fail check may be the cause.
Fixed safetynet and now android auto works.
Coincidence? I don't now.
Well have to wait now.
Works fine for me, been using it for years and now with the 6T I was having issues but I remembered I changed my devices dpi, once I changed that AA functions normally as it did with previous devices.
