Original Eee Pad Transformer owners now have an easy way to update their tablet to Android 4.0 or restore it back to the ICS firmware – v9.2.1.11, using the NVFlash tool, all thanks to its creator, an XDA member.
This is particularly helpful for those who are yet to update their Transformer to Ice Cream Sandwich, or those in case of a flash-gone-bad situation, and when you just want to get your beloved Transformer back to its former state, as Asus wanted it to be.
