[Q] Serial number transformer pad ? - Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey ppl today i got my eee Transformer Pad BUT !! Now I was checking if I was able to root that thing... I only find on the internet ppl with a serial number that begins with B70/B80 or whatever kind of number, I have BB0 ... and I'm sure its a 2nd B instead of a 8 :S Anyone knows how to root my tablet ? Since the RazorClaw app doesn't work since I'm on Build Number HTK75.WW_epad-8.6.5.13-20110925.
If someone can help me I would appriciate it

Keep the tablet connected to the internet and you should be prompted to get the update. Took mine about 24 hours. Then I used Razorclaw and was extremely surprised at how simple it was to root...then used the other apk to install ClockWork recovery.
So, I guess until you get the update (or do it manually), play and get to know your new tab...as I did.

ah oke Thanks for the tip man ! will report back if something happens <3

Hmmmm the tablet was connected to the internet all day but sadly no update isnt there a other root method that I can use instead of razorclaw?

Use RazorClaw and then RecoveryInstaller, these two are .apk, so it works with just one click from your Tab.
I've rooted mine like this.

Best way: Update to 8.6.5.19 -specifically- and use Razorclaw.
Anything above .19 and you get stuck, unless your B70 supports the APX mode access ... which frankly I'd test anyway if you haven't already just to be sure if you'll have a failsafe option.

Hey !
I tried to download the file named UpdtaeLauncher_WW_epad_8.6.6.19 (or something like that..) I found in the thread you linked. I downloaded a zip, and copied it in my internal storage, and rebooted, but nothing changed, and there isn't any downgrade.. Where do I need to copy the file, and do I have to unzip it ?
Thanks a lot !!

i think you need the files you wish to flash copied to your external storage from what I read while rooting my B70 and flashing with PRIME 2.1.1 and netformer 1.6, they all had to be on a micro SD to flash.. (???)
The downgrade isn't working for me either - B70, US, .21
I renamed the file in the dev threads to US_epad-user-8.6.6.19 (no zip), rebooted, it said there was an update with the triangle, it runs, but then goes to the Android with the triangle in the middle, then when rebooting it reverts back and loads and states the software does not match the upgrade file.
I'd like to post this in the dev thread, but I don't have 10 posts yet :lame:
not working with .23
I tried all variants for downgrading from my 8.6.6.23 (BA0, TF101G) found in the threads for .21, but it does not work at all.
The update starts, but then the little android with the yellow warning sign shows up and the .23 version keeps on rolling...
i think we have to wait... damn you asus: why don't you just let me root MY device. I bought it - i didn't rent it !?!?
Thanks toeveryone who took the time to anwear my question.. Especially stch, I've ben led to the same conclusion, but didn't want to believe it.. But, finnlaly, I have to understand that it now impossible.. I'll have to wait :/
Thanks you everybody !

Use nachoroot, it works great

pjfriend's alternate root method has worked for me. It allowed me to revert from .21 to .19 and then root using Razorclaw. I was having trouble at first, as I have just gotten my transformer. A note to you, when getting in to recovery, after you see the green NVidia logo, that's when you hit the volume up knocker. Not when you see the two square boxes that have 'factory wipe' and an Android there.

If NachoRoot worked, there's no need to revert from .21 to .19 to use RazorClaw.
NachoRoot should have rooted your TF.
Heh, nice find . Trying so many root methods, they begin to blur. Edited and fixed, thanks.

[Q] No Root after repair

Hey guys.
Here is my story i hope you can help me: I am from Germany and got a B8O Tab. I had rootet it with Razorclaw and installed CWM and some Custom Roms.
One Day my left headphone speaker was dead. So i had to return my tablet to Asus. I unrooted it with ViperMod. It worked perfect. I was back on stock without root and CWM. I could root again and unroot with Vipermod (tested)
Now i got my Tablet back. It wasnt configurated so i know that they had put an fresh Rom installation on it. But they did the WW 8.6.6.23 on it. NOT the DE Version.
End of the Story is, now i cannot root anymore. I tried ViperMod and Nachoroot (manuell) and both stop by the exact same point. After the second reboot "id" has to be 0 but it is something like 2000.
Now i cant root (God knows why) and cannot put the DE Version on it. I think the root doesnt work because it is an German Tab with the WW Version now.
Have someone an Idea how i can solve this problem? Just want root back so i can use custom roms again.
I'm having the issue. "vid=2000<shell> gid=2000<shell>" every time.

Are u sure that its the same tablet? I mean if it had a fresh rom it could bee the new patch that makes rooting harder...
Update to the official ICS that you can download from the asus website then root it with ViperMod

I thought of that too but the problem is i have an TF101G and this one doesnt have IC until now. The IC Updates are all for the Wifi only version.
But if IC is avaibled for the TF101G can i just install the German Version over the WW?

ViperMod should work on the G also. If you're still on HC i think option 3 is what you choose

ViperMod worked before i send the transformer to Asus. I used it to get back to Stock and unroot. I tested it if i can root again and it worked perfectly. But after i get it back from Asus it has the WW Version instead of the DE (German) and now Vipermod isn't working anymore.
I think it has to do something with this WW Version but im not sure of it.
Any Ideas?
I'm having the issue. "vid=2000<shell> gid=2000<shell>" every time.
So i managed to go back to the German Version. First success!
But root still isnt working. I really dont know why.

The error indicated that your device is not registered with Asus server or there's problem with Asus server. Many ppl have this issue and the only way is to wait and try again on another day. Sometimes it takes days, weeks, some...never!! Asus is no longer support this and they transfered this process to third party, so we're at the end of the rope.

Rooting has nothing to do with unlocking. You still can root your device, but without unlocking you will not able to flash recovery in order to flash custom rom/kernel.

ASUS CASEID=RPTM20121129101715-271
Hi David,
Thank you for reaching out. Last I heard, the unlocking problem was due to an issue with the servers over at HQ. Since then, I was informed that they (HQ) would take over handling it. I'm sad to say, that I have not heard anything from them since and I am probably in the same situation as you guys. The best I can recommend is to send it in for RMA since it is believed to be an issues with the MB not being able to communicate with the servers.

No, but you can downgrade to ICS, root it with debugfs, use OTA RootKeeper, and upgrade to JB again using dlkpkgfiles saved from OTA upgrades (downloads are available in some thread on this forum). This procedure does not require unlocking and results in a rooted JB.

Firmware Upgrade?

Hello, I am just wondering if any of you guys received a firmware upgrade recently.
I upgraded to this firmware which I believe was built early this month and it seems like it can't be rooted and my Google play keeps on crashing.
I did some searches and there seems to be no results regarding tf700 and this build. Anyone?

Looks like they are doing a new release for the TF700 which is not unexpected seeing as they just did one for the TF300 and ME301 as well. The same problem exists on those two devices. Asus have closed the root loophole motochopper has been using. As of now there is no known root method other than unlocking.
What waste of their time...instead of fixing things like the lag, on screen keyboard output and browser compatability they get all paranoid about someone fixing it for them...

When I get mine back, if it's fixed, I intend to do just that might be the only good way to get any use of my 700!

So, does anyone have a changelog for this or know if it's possible to keep root with Voodoo OTA and this update?
On the other hand, I may be sending my tablet to ASUS for repairs. If they update to this firmware, does factory reset revert to an older version I can root without unlocking?
Thanks!

I have sent mine in for digitizer repairs...so I'm sitting here worried about the same thing...I hope they don't flash my stuff..as of this moment, I don't think there is a way back.
Motorola did this to me with a Photon 4G phone right before they said they wouldn't be updating the OS beyond 2.3 they OTA'd my phone so I can't put a ROM on it. Guess what, no mo moto for this dude and now there won't be any more Asus either, pretty soon I won't be buying anything but I'll have a lot of money!

Bad update
Hi to all,
I´ve just update my TF700T to the latest firmware JOP40D.US_epad-10.6.1.14.10-20130801 but all goes wrong.
First, every app I´ve installed has been stopped, no one works. Every time that i want to launch an app, appears the message "sorry, the XXXX app has stopped...", the same with a lot of processes: "sorry, the process XXXX has stopped"
Second, I try to fixit rebooting the pad, but evrery time I reboot it, or shut off and then power on it, is the same: "android is updating/upgrading: optimizing nn applications of mm"
What should I do, i´m desperate my TF700T is unusable.
I´m root, not unlocked. I activate the survival mode in the SuperSu app to try to mantain the root.
Thank you very much in advanced.
update:
I made a cold reset, wipe data and nothing works. Now I can´t enter on the system, because when I need to configure my google account, i receive a message the process com.google.process.gapps has stopped.
I also try made a RCK, but i got the android with the red triangle with the exclamation inside.

I managed to fix this by following "Alternative Firmware update Method" in http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=28374043&postcount=1
You may download 10.6.1.14.8 from Asus web site, downgrade the device, root it if you want to, and then apply OTA upgrade again.
