[Q] ROOT for ASUS eee pad transformer (TF101G) B80 Serial - Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Thanks

OK, thanks ... i will wait, it sucks having a b80 unrootable.

In future please post any questions in the Q&A Forum.
This was clearly stickied at the top of the Development Forum where you posted your question and carries a 3 point infraction but as you are a newb (in posting terms) I will overlook it this one time and one time only.

Homescreen lag.
Hi, im a newbie here in these forums, i recently got a new Asus Tranformer and i love it.
The Tegra processor seems quite powerful however i've noticed that when i enable a live wallpaper the transition between homescreens lags a little bit (doesn't happen with normal wallpapers) is there a way to improve performance on my Asus TF.
Also, is there any chance superoneclick works with honeycomb 3.2, or is there another easy rooting method for this device?
Thanks in advance!

Apply a custom ROM & kernel combo, and it will be even faster.
For rooting, why don;t you check this thread?

Can't Wait
Yeah,it'll be a great day for sure. Now, since we're going to be seeing the TF2 soon
anyway, hopefully the root will apply to those too. Money in hand and waiting...
TF101 B50 WITH PRIME ROM
MOTOROLA ATRIX - ROOTED WITH GINGERBREAK
TF101 - B80 AND WAITING

I just purchased my Asus Transformer yesterday (yes, I know that the Asus Transformer Prime is coming soon) and I was very disappointed to find out that I can't root it because it's a B80. I only have 14 days to return it so if it doesn't get root by then, I will be forced to return it.
I've been using Android since the G1 days so I'm not stranger to the platform, but there is too much that I enjoy about root and was looking forward to doing with this tablet (beginning with reskinning the hideous Asus navigation buttons back to stock Honeycomb and removing all the bloatware).
I will keep my fingers crossed as I really, really like the tablet and don't want to return it. The commitment by Asus to upgrade it to ICS (and it's hardware acceleration) and the price made me finally decide to bite the bullet on this one.

New in this forum, was hanging out in the x10 section for quite a while, got a TF101 which I traded for an Ipad2.......
Is there news for the B80 root, I'm a themer, and I need to get that Honeycomb blue out of my tablet....... fast!!

No news. You can try other 3.2 tablets forums' for the theme - Acer Iconia Tab for example.

B80 Root Kit!!!

I badly need the root kit for B80!! I have been trying to remove the notification bar on Honeycomb, and the only possible way is rooting!

Here's another option for you. No root needed.
Go out and buy a permanent marker. Then black out the bottom area where the status bar is. Voila, you've hidden your status bar.
To bring back your status bar, use acetone.

Any good news?

[Q] Android Revolution HD or PRIME!

Question for everyone. I've rooted my transformer so I don't want to risk getting the OTA and having things screwed up. So either 1. can I just get the 3.2.1 update or 2. which ROM would you pick??
Android Revolution HD or PRIME! ??
Let me know why, thanks!
It's a matter of personal preference. They're both good IMO.
I just use Prime. If you don't want OTA, use Titanium backup or similar app and freeze DMClient.
Thanks for that, didn't even think of freezing that, I haven't done it in so long.
Would you happen to know if either of those ROMs will flash without wiping the data folder? It's not too bad to use Titanium Backup but it's so much nicer to just flash an update without worrying about.
Will i lose SuperNote if i rooted with Prime?
Also pretty much the only reason why i want to root it to get rid of the bottom bar. Will rooting solve the bottom bar problem?
I use Prime, because I think Roach is awesome and I'm not as interested in what the other ROMs I've seen here can offer. Stock was fine enough for me though, lol.

Only if you use <= 1.9.1; Prime 2.x.y has SuperNote.

Now i need to figure out if my tablet is B70 or B80
Look for the decal just below the touchpad on the edge. Your serial is there.

Sure, that'll tell you the S/N of your keyboard dock
The tablet's S/N is on the edge nearest the power connector. At least it is on my B5O
I had PRIME before, now using revolver. Looks good.
never tried the revolution.
I use Revolution on one or my two TF1s and Revolution on my HTC Inspire 4g, i love the rom, runs smooth and stable.

Thanks. Turns out i have a B50 so i assume since it isn't a B80 i can root it.
I had trouble with prime and some apps stopped working like Super Stickman Golf. I went back to revolution... never had a problem with it.

b90 TF

Hi Guys
I'm new to the TF forum, but I've had a good year of experience with android after getting my Captivate and doing all sorts of stuff in it.
I just got a B90 transformer, but it appears that anything over B70 can't root or do any modifications to it. That's not really an issue for me if the stock experience is good enough.
I'm guessing a B90 is quite new so I'm wondering if there are any other users with B90s have any issues with it? How is the experience like?
If anyone is wondering why did I get the B90 when I know I can't do anything with it. That's because it was on sale for 449 tablet + dock. I think that's a good price and I needed a tablet and knowing that Asus wouldn't cut the price of the TF with the release of the TF2. However, if the price does drop, I'll just bug my credit card company for price protection guarantee =)
I read that the number there is the month so yours was built in Sept. The problem rooting newer than B70 is they updated part of the bootloader back then apparently and the guys here haven't figured out how to crack it yet.

Am i correct in thinking that all TFs have all the same hardware regardless of the b50,60,etc?

you are correct, in BxO the x stands for the month of manufacture, however there is a little piece of code on the silicon that is the first piece of code to run that has changed somewhere in august also there are a set of e-fuses which have had a different key burned into them, this key change is what stumped the root to begin with, and the first piece of code that changed is what has tripped up nvflash once the key was revealed to us

Looking at this, they mentioned B70 and B80, but nothing about B90. I wonder if there's any changes between those units in that matter.
I read somewhere that the awesome devs had created a rooting method for b70+, and they were waiting to release it. I have a feeling if you hang tight, you'll get root eventually.
Personally, I required root to run cifs and tun modules in order to stream movies from my fileserver and the ability to VPN into my workplace. YMMV.
Good luck, and welcome to the TF family - it's an awesome device!
Would be interesting, if the B90 transformer has the same SBK like the newer B70's and the B80's.
I mean if it has "Sbk2" or if it has the new "Sbk3" which is also used at the transformer 3G and I think at the asus slider.
Maybe you can try the Sbk-detect from here :

That's mainly what I'm after. I use those on my Nook Color that's on CM7. The real question is why Android ships without those features anyway.

[Q] Asus Eee Pad Transformer B80 root

Hello everyone.
I know there have been many threads concerning this topic but there does not really seem to be any improvement. My question concretely is, is there anyone currently working on a root for the b80? Or is it impossible to hack the root key?
If there is someone working on the rooting, is there an estimated date available.
Just so you know, I did actually search many many many topics on this subject but nobody seems to be able to give something concrete.
Anyway, I hope someone has some solid answers
Sincerely,
Incapable
Actually, I wasn't able to root it and though to return it back before 14 days pass, so got the Samsung GT P7510 instead and rooted it in 2 minutes , got the HDMI adapter and getting the USB stick adapter soon. IT is better screen resolution, brighter and lighter. 2 days running (without charging-only one charge) only 10% (interrupted use with stand buy mode) of battery life used. The transformer , B80,will be hard to root, so be patient.
...and any breakthrough in development will certainly be revealed first within the eee pad transformer forums.

Ok, great, but i don't see any reason to replace it with a samsung, the resolution is actually equal to the transformer, cannot agree with the brightness. I can run it for 16 hours full operating and that is more than enough for me. Anyway to stay a little on topic. I know the b80 will be hard to root, that is exactly why i created the thread.

Most probably, but maybe someone had found something somewhere else. Since there has been no update in 2 months about this I thought it might be time to just ask once more.
Here is a comparison table, 7510 has better color depth and Screen Readability in Bright Light is better.
There is a table at displaymate.com/Tablet_ShootOut_1.htm#Recommendation_3
Have a look at it.

Agreed, our friend incapable is asking if there has been any news on rooting a B80 Transformer, s/he is not asking for advice/comparison for acquiring another tablet.
It is unfortunate there hasn't been any updates floating around or any indication that it is still being worked on even. Let's just hope that we'll see some news soon. I wonder if the TF Prime will have the same SBK and if it does that should actually benefit us because there will be a flurry of new Devs attempting to root it.

Indeed, my first guess will be that the TF Prime will indeed have the same bootloader since, as far as i have seen, did not actually change anything about the software at all. It seems to be they have only made hardware changes.
Let's just hope for the best.
I don't know if I can wait for that release...
I may have to resort to flashing an older version like B70. I think there is a way to go backwards.
Have had stock rom for long enough!
Which developers are working on this? Is anyone? I'd hate to think that everyone was standing around waiting on something that no one is working on
I have a locked transformer as well, and I'd like to contribute... who should i talk to?

Just a few noob questions

Good night!
Today I purchased an Asus tablet press tf700 transformer.
Now I come to ask for your help. I'm not new to android. I have an acer liquid for 2 years. however never had an asus and got some doubts. I noticed that there is a newer kernel version. However I could not update it. Because I have to do?
Another doubt I have and unlock on the asus site, which makes this program they warn that it is without warranty?
Just an observation. I have the acer liquid with custom rom, it was enough flashing with original rom was still able to arrange for the guarantee. In Asus not possible to do this?
From already thank you!
P.S. Sorry my bad english!

You do not need to update a kernel, at least not up till now. What do you mean with your remark "could not update it"?

ASUS warns that they MAY retract warranty from an unlocked device. If you make sure to check your 700 thoroughly beforehand and only then unlock, you should be fine.

TF300 newbie user

Hi XDA!
This is very exciting moment for me and I hope i'm welcome into this new family.
Here i want to share some experience as a newbie. I just bought my TF300T (blue) yesterday and it came with ICS 4.0.3.
It was smooth, zero lag and amazing when it was out of the box. Then i went back home and downloaded some apps and meanwhile upgraded it to Jellybean.
After everything was finished, the tab boot as usual but now the feeling was different. There was obvious stuttering and lag in any apps even at the homescreen.
I was sad and frustated on updating to jellybean. But then on the next morning, i did 'factory data reset', and everything is ok! The smoothness returned and much better than ICS. i was glad i did it and now i can't be happier than before.
I'm not yet root my transformers as to preserve warranty. The transformer is the best.tablet.ever!

Well, it seems that you're not nice after all . Joking aside, I can understand OP's excitement, but yes, there are several threads related to new users/JB upgrade. Also, rooting for JB without an unlocked bootloader is not possible for the moment.
