Note:
-You must be unlocked (use ASUS’s unlock tool to perform this)
-You must be on 10.26.1.18 bootloader (updating to ASUS’s latest 4.3 release will install this). It is best to update to this build (10.26.1.18) via MicroSD update method (as outlined on ASUS’s site) as some users have reported that it doesn’t get installed via OTA.

…..

Known Issues:
-When performing a long list in /data/media within the shell, this is thrown from Bionic, for localtime/GMT/posixrules:
“couldn’t find any tzdata”. However, the listing is still shown.
