Rooting to 3.1 Your-New Transformer

Not sure if this should go here or General, Mod feel free to move if you think it should be moved ---
To all, This is what I found when rooting my Xformer--
1st ...I am not a rookie but I wanted the rooting to go without a hitch. So I read most of what was out there and choose what I thought would be best for me as far as the method for rooting.
So, I picked Apache's posting of how to root since I had a 4-24-11 build 3.0.1 I did not have to revert back, just needed to root the device and update
This is the posting:
Where to get the root packages---
http://androidroot.mobi/asus-eee-pad-transformer-tf101-root-cwm-recovery/
2nd I would recommend watching the video by Ayman019
Ayman019--- Root video
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WaZ4B60OWmY
This is a great play by play
Finally, I love Supercurio's work it is very bugfree so I downloaded his updated rom 3.1 updated...... etc here:
Supercurio's rooted rom---
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1112527
And his repacker if you want to have the tool that did the above ---
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1112527
I Pushed all the files through SDK/ADB. All went great until I tried to push superuser. At first, it would not recognize, so another xda member mentioned that sometime the remount is not seen, so I tried remounting 1st time, nothing ... the second time it worked
Awesome I am Rooted but ....... nothing could see the superuser, it would not allow anything access to superuser, so I downloaded Busybox and loaded it as well, still nothing.
Then I thought since I have superuser I should have recovery too. So, I proceeded to load Supercurio's rom on the sd card and then, manually went into recovery.....
Flashed the rom in recovery, rebooted....Voila' rooted, 3.1 and Good to go......
The point of this thread is remind people, that not all units react exactly the same, usually in adb everything works pretty much the same, but as you can see, not always.
So, moral of the story, the tools are here in XDA and the devs and other members have written great how to's and provide great advice, I thank All of them for sharing their knowledge.
BTW the Transformer is an AWESOME device and rooted you can really make it operate amazingly ..........

Is there anywhere else to get these? It looks like his account is over the quota-
"This file is temporarily unavailable because there are no resources
available under the owner's account. "

The other good thing is you end up with a stock 3.1 Rom rooted rather than flashing a custom rim from the start

Yes this is the an advantage and unless you are looking to over clock I think the unit works very well with the standard rom.
Also Calforniarailroader here is another site to get the downloads:

Speed...

How about battery life? I know the tweaking done on my EVO made a huge improvement in battery life. Most of this comes with a custom kernal/rom though, but being rooted is obviously a necessity.
Im am not a newb to XDA by any means but, I just got the Transformer today, so go easy on me

can i root with 3.1 already? seems like in this thread ver 3.0.1 was used for rooting.

You would have to use the version that reverts to go back to 3.01 then go from there.

where do you find any info about rolling back i looked in every thread and NOTHING

Overclocking, removing system apps, running slightly modded roms of Honeycomb 3.1, etc... There's no risk since the TF is unbrickable since we have nvflash.

Is there anything I can do if I flashed the wrong blob? I got root ok but CWM did not work. I tried to flash blobV5 but now adb cant write anything to /data. Since I have root could I simply use root explorer and terminal to run these commands?

I'm kind of stuck... I got as for as to issue the ./data/local/gingerbreakBB command...
I didn't receive any permission errors or anything but it's been siting there like it's waiting to finish (looks like it's thinking), one line so far that reads [*] vold: 0000 GOT start: 0x00017368 GOT end: 0x000175e8
But it's literally been sitting there for over 2 hours...
Android Ver 3.0.1
Any ideas? Anyone?
UPDATE: Nevermind... apparently even if your runnin 3.0.1 if it's not the right build you have to downgrade... got it... rooted!

hi all
I have rooted my TF to prime 1.5V. I enjoy it, but I have some problem in android market, I cannot download and install any software directly from android market, does anyone have such problem with android market after rooting and updating?(I use Nflash method, change SKU US to WW!)
do u have any suggestion?

At the end, does the unite still get OTA updates? I think there is no CWM involved in this picture, so I am assuming the tab will receive the 3.2 update automatically?

There will always be a reason to root your device, since there will always be something you need to do that the manufacturer doesn't want or think you need.

Ok guys I just got my used never before rooted transformer and I need to know if my current version is able to be rooted! I've searched but with no results to answer all my questions. I'm no noob to rooting or xda so I kind of just need pointed in the right direction. Can some one look at my screen shot and tell me if I can use this thread to root with my current firmware version or what other thread I need to start off with. All help is greatly appreciated!

You need to read mudknot's stickied guide front to back several times. The best advice anyone can give you on it is read, read, read, and read some more. The process is not complicated, but is not easy by no means. It will happen if you read, be patient, don't rush, and follow the steps precisely.

There are two methods on how to root....there is the (Hack Kit)... And the (simple one click ) by bubby... I used the one click method... But read read read...

Read read read. Do more research, have a drink to calm the nerves, then use bubby's one click. Works perfectly! Then after that flash the Ninja rom in my sig.

Everyone is correct. Reading first will help things go a lot smoother. I would recommend attn1 hack kit. You have a lot of roms to choose from. Just take your time. If you really get stuck or don't understand then ask.

I agree. Read and one click

Oh thanks I rooted super easy ...what's the custom Rom that's is close to stock in look and feel

Root password?
Im trying to follow the Ace Hack Kit (v11), but when I try to run the hack-ace.sh code, it asks me for the root password, which I don't know and can;t find anywhere online. I feel like an idiot for asking, but what is it? Ive been searching for hours.
Im running OS X 10.6.6, and the phone is Kernel version 2.6.32.21-g6a5ff14 [email protected] #1, if that helps at all.
Im new to rooting, Ive been a Jailbreaker until I just switched to Android. I understand everything in the hack guide, just cant get past the simplest step it feels like. Someone help me out?
And sorry for putting this on someone else's thread... it wouldnt let me post an original for some reason.

Lol. Man the keyboard really had it in for you on that one.
I like "blowy" though. It's a refreshing change.

I have had two inspires and on my first one I used Bubby's rooting program only because it did not require the use of command prompt as much as the Hack kit did at the time, but on my second inspire I used the hack kit because that has truly been turned into a fool proof way of rooting and it seem's that bubby has abandoned his rooting program because it has not been updated for sometime. The hack kit does it all for you all you have to do is tell it what you want done by entering either a 1,2 or a 3 and it does the rest.
As for rom's I use the Coredroid because it is closer to the HTC stock sense and Surgio keeps up on the updates and the bugs also.

I'm on my first Android with the Inspire and rooted a few days ago using the hack kit... it was very simple and all went well. I've gone through a few roms already, probably didn't give each enough time but wanted to find something I liked and now ended up with GingerBeast. There is a problem with GPS though with Gingerbread but if you look for gingerbread gps fix it can be taken care of easily.

You should give each rom at least a week to see how it works, there is a wierd thing with rom's they need a couple of days to settle in to the phone and to see how the battery and everything else work with that certain rom, that is why I have chosen one rom and have stuck with it through two inspires, I have found coredroid to be the best rom for my purposes and none other fit the bill.

I am also new to Rooting of my inspire, but not a noob to android by anymeans. I searched and searched through and through the thread with the simple one click root. I understand what it is that i need to do.
But for the life of me, i cannot get the simple one click root application to download and install on my computer. I have my antivirus and all off, firewall turned off. I download the file, it starts extracting and unziping. Then it goes to installation. The green bar at the bottom gets up to about 90% full, then the entire screen just closes by itself and thats it.
Restarted my computer 4 times and tried it again 4 times last night with the same results. SO i guess my question is not going to be how to root, i think i got a grasp on that one, but can someone point me in the direction of a different link for the one click app or lend some advice of how i can get it installed.

I had the same problem with my old XP laptop. I studied for a month, was sure I had my PC set up correctly. And Bubby's just would not run on my PC. Ended up using the hack kit which worked. One thing they do say to make sure you have the latest .FrameworkNet and Java consoles installed, for something to check.

Thanks for the response. It is appreciated. I did do those updates amd still no luck. Guess its the hack kit for me.

New to Xoom have questions, recovery , ROMs

So I the tittle says it all i am getting my xoom today from work it will be a wifi only 32 gig US version of the zoom. My biggest questions are what is the best guide for rooting and flashing recovery i found these two: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=22276224#post22276224, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1074979 which one of those is best for my device and also is there another i should be using???( provide link if possible ) Also what is your favorite ROM i pretty much know what ones i want to try also whats your favorite kernel?? And anything else i should know about the devise i am looking forward to joining the xoom xda community,

That guide to rooting should do the trick for you. The hardest part is setting up ADB and fast boot, but really that isn't very difficult. Just make sure to type things correctly when using the command prompt! Haha. Also, that recovery by Solarnz works just fine, but I use the Team Rogue recovery. And I don't know if you've figured it out on your own, but no ROM for the Xoom is worth flashing unless it's ICS. But! you did say it was a work Xoom, and I don't know how much "legal" freedom you're going to be allowed.
Team EOS ROM v 1 and Steady Hawkins CM9 Kang both ran great on my Xoom (4G). You getting to the Xoom party just as its getting good. Honeycomb vs. ICS is a night and day difference.

Fastboot and the like are pretty easy/simple to use after a while, especially if you're familiar with the command line/prompt.
Basically the procedure is:
1. Unlock Device
2. Root and install recovery (I like to do this from fastboot as well)
3. Flash ROM then GApps
4. Reconfigure home screens and accounts for the eleventy billionth time.
5.?????
6. Profit! (sorry. I had to)

You don't need to. It will work on windows as well.
I would strongly suggest to read the whole manual (effen manual - it's actually named like that) before starting. If you downloaded the hack kit/ran the kit with your antivirus on, the chances of it not working are high.
Thus, read before starting anything. Because if you mess up (the hack kit is quite simple if you understand what you are doing) but if you mess up with something so easy, it's going to take a whole lot more to fix it. READ EVERYTHING IN THE SITE BEFORE YOU PLUG IN YOUR PHONE, THEN READ IT AGAIN. WE ARE NOT KIDDING ABOUT READING. IT IS YOUR PHONE, YOUR RESPONSABILITY.
Keep in mind what android version you are on. THAT IS VERY IMPORTANT.

Yes, it does.. i have 2.3.5 and it runs on 3.20.502.52

Make sure that when you run aahk the you shut down any firewall and anti virus programs or you will run into issues. Some people been having issues where anti virus programs treat aahk as a virus and will stop it from working. Last thing you want is in the middle of rooting for aahk to stop working.

Ok, my humble advice is that you spend MUCH more time reading before running the Hack Kit. This is not like other phones that the process is painless. Unfortunately, HTC locks its bootloaders so you need S-OFF before anything else.
If you really can't find something in a web site that has 2 or 3 entries, then take time to think about rooting. Don't do it untill you get acquainted with all the information you are being given.
Rooting your build OS is not enterily for noobs, so or you get help via teamviewer or just take some more time to fully understand what you are about to do...

I think I should wait, and stay with whatever I have. I needed ICS. But I'll wait!
One ques., the most confusing thin is that "No temproot for Inspire for 3.20.502.52" which is written on the site of aahk, means what? Inspire can't be rooted which have this? Coz i have the same one.!
But anyways, thanks guys for taking time out! I do need some learning to be done.
If possible could u plz put up some youtube videos to help beginners like me, so that they can make full use of their phones! Or post link here if u know any video that might help me.
I need the ICS! It would be really heplful!
But thanks guys, you have been great help trying to explain! I'll continue my search! I'll wait and will keep in touch here.
Thanks alot!

Does it work? or waiting would be still good!?

That's exactly the way it must be done. I had the same version than you and now my inspire is rooted and working all right.

From my understanding, you have to swap out the patches and it's specific to your device and ROM. I took a look at one of the patcher tools, but it was just a bunch of confusion to me until I can actually sit down and take a look without having to rush. Think you could take a look as well? Greatly appreciated :victory:

Well, let me know if you figure anything out when you get everything up and running. I'm definitely going to be sitting down tonight and looking into it, I'll report back if I find anything!

I just found this quote in the post; "For all who keep on asking your answers can be found in this thread just search. To use the patch you need your rom's source code then run the patch command on linux and patch your source add the resources and compile. There is no flash zip morphs or anything flash able because AOSP roms are not the same it will be hard to make a flash able zip for all and this is the development section if you don't know what to do then search, read and read some more instead of these consider requests that wouldn't happen. You have to do see stuff yourself something" ... so my question now is, where is the source code for LS RC5(seeing that you run it as well).

Hopefully i can get one setup this weekend, gotta convince my dad to let me setup everything on one of his desktop computers. I'd rather mess around with it using Ubuntu and not windows, but that's just personal preference

LS RC5 is based off of CM10, so it would be the cyanogen mod 10 source code, which is android 4.1.2 source
