        Updated mine but the keyboard will no longer work.. AFTER THE KITKAT. Can't text and search.. Downloaded SwiftKey using the voice search. Now I'm using the SwiftKey not the Asus KEYBOARD nor the Android default Input because it's grayed out. Is anyone experiencing this? How to fix it? Thanks

                  I would recommend everyone to update all their apps from playstore after kitkat update to improve their performance by making them compatible with kitkat.

                                You will need to manually load a firmware into it.

                                Or load an older official firmware, to have it unrooted again, then try one more time to update to full 1.18.40.9 (not OTA), and then do system update to 1.18.40.10, and once you're done with that, if it works, do system update again to get KK.
