[Q] Asus TF600T Not showing update 8.1 even after tutorials. - Windows RT General

Hello!
I own a Asus VivoTab TF600T and have Windows RT 8.1 Preview installed from a few months back.
Now I try to find a way to get the official 8.1 update but can't really get it to work.
What I did is using the Modern UI to find updates, no luck.
Then I tried the windows classic UI Windows Updates, activating "Search for other product drivers". No luck here aswel.
I also tried to find the update KB 2871389, but doesn't appear in my Installed Updates list, and the device has no more updates to install.
I did the "run/wsreset.exe" and that did not show any results.
I need to have this update in order to get the tablet back in Italian, as I sold it to an Italian friend.
Thanks!
PS: I asked the same question on the Windows Forum, but I really never see any good answers on there, so I ask the awesome XDA members who are WAY better then "wana b MS devs"

I had the exact same issue:
Follow the directions from the following link under the section marked
"I installed the preview from the Windows Store or I installed the preview using media while Windows 8 was running"

Hey,
ASUS has made a full Android 4.2.2 version for the vivo tab rt available. Unfortunately there isn't a way to flash it onto the tablet because of secure boot etc. I've seen someone mentioning that an older uefi version was hackable.
So maybe if you put the old uefi version somehow back on there, you might be able to boot that android version.
I wish people didn't post stuff they can'i back up. If you don't know the answer don't post. Does anyone know if it can be done?

Microsoft Secure Boot Golden Key is online, is this the start of a new life for the VivoTab RT? :
Maybe someone will port it over.
The Android version of the VivoTab RT TF600T is ASUS Transformer Pad TF502T. On the Asus website the Kernel Code for Android 4.2.1 can still be found (http://www.asus.com/support/Download/28/1/0/17/32/).
Tegra3 - it looks good.

Hi i`ve just recently bought a Nokia Lumia 1020 from china..
And joined windows 10 insider fast ring, i`ve had no problems upadating this phone from windows 8.1 to the latest
offering from microsoft, but for the life of me i cannot downgrade back to win 8.1
I`ve read all the tutorials i`ve done numerous soft & hard resets tryed different usb cables tryed different ports unistalled and reinstalled
WRT..
Now here is the thing that i don`t get,
When i connect my phone to my PC running win 7 WRT recognises my phone and then proceeds to tell me that there isn't
anything available on the server..
So i have held the volume button down & power pressed in, and restarted WRT to find my phone which it does and then proceeds to download a new rom.
But the new rom is for a different phone.. this is the rom downloaded by WRT
RM877 3051 50009 1451 1 RETAIL nam att 205 01 473928 prd signed.ffu
My installed rom is RM-875-apac_hong_kong_223
first of all : why downgrade? have problem with w10?
Thanks for your response, there is a issue with the camera not working. I had no problems with this until i upgraded to win 10
This is the main reason for me buying this phone because of the camera,

yes of course 1020 has great camera
but im not sure every people with 1020 who upgrade to W10M have this problem...
what is your problem?
do u try Lumia camera beta?
For some reason that app is not showing on windows store for me
Try That
Lumia Camera Beta https://www.microsoft.com/store/apps/9wzdncrfjbm0
Intersting, my phone is just in the process of updating the windows store, i`ll check when it`s finnished to see if it shows
Thank you kwanice i`ll keep you informed..
Still does not answer the question why i`m struggling to down grade back to win8.1 though & why the server is downloading a different
file i.e mines 875 and yet the downloaded file is 877, or is it compatable, and why does my phone reject the install?
Well updated windows store, and searched again for lumia camera beta, and it`s not showing anything

and for your downgrade...i dont know why u have problem...
maybe try to post on Windows phone 8 section...
Thanks I`ve also posted this problem on microsofts windows 10 insider forum, but no one seems to have any answers for this problem
Just my luck!
Might just trade in this phone and get a android phone with a decent camera....

Windows 10 hacking help

Just upgraded to windows 10 on my 640. Now the version in the insider program is 10.0.10586.63. Looking the net. Found out the MS remove Astoria on the latest version. Does anyone know how to revert to the previous version of windows 10 where the Astoria was still there?
Another also is that, Most tutorial on the net about installing appxbunlde on windows 10 doesn't work especially for the paid apps. Is there a latest tutorial on how to do install one? I always have this error when using APPdeployCMD "

what to do with my lumia 925?

i have an lumia 925 that i dont use anymore...and handed it over to my kid..but now he wants an android instead...(app gap!!) before i tried to install the testbulids of win 10 that was available to the phone...but it was to may things that did'nt not work. I wish that it was possible to install android on it
is there any "sharp" windows 10 bulid or anything to install on it nowdays that work all day?
You can use it as a photo camera, should be pretty good for that. But stay away from Windows 10, it's full of bugs and it will force you to use the new crappy Camera app.
Otherwise, sell it and buy an Android phone for your kid.
Hello. I am in the same boat as yours - a Lumia 630 user. I am using the latest 10586 build and it is as good as WP8.1. Just make sure you select Release Preview in windows insiders. Also do a hard reset after getting onto W10 to ensure all bugs and left over files are deleted.
wohoooo??? finally perhaps a new rom?
ohhh..i heard today that some "keys" leaked from microsoft that unlocks the bootloader...it says that now you could install any operationsystem on windows devices?? then perhaps we could install android in our 925's? or perhaps have a dualboot anything about this?

Surface RT (2012) with Windows RT(8)

Hi to all, i've bought a Surface RT on ebay and once it arrived it was in factory reset. MS Store and Update aren't working because the support for RT 8 was discontinued, and i can't get nor the updates for RT 8 nor the upgrade to RT 8.1. Explorer can't open pages because it's too old and every other preinstalled app can't be updated. I don't know what to do with this tablet. All the guides or Updates i've found searching on the internet all speaks all about RT 8.1. I tried to install those updates but (obviously) aren't working.
Can somebody help me and tell me if there is a way to install the version 8.1 or how to get the best out of this tablet in the current state?
Thank you

But its worth noting a fully updated RT isn't exactly useful, the browser is out of date, the store is unreliable etc.
