Hi,
I know that ASUS just released the bootloader unlock, but does the Infinity Pad have root yet? I'm receiving mine via Amazon tomorrow. Just curious.
Nevermind - found it.

Hi, I just got an Asus Eee pad Tf101, and I just updated to ICS today. Now I've seen this tablet can be rooted but I want to know if it can be rooted with this update installed or if I have to do something else.
Thanks!

Google Viper Mod and run that. I've heard people using that and being able to root ICS
Just come across this note as I have been looking for way to root my tf300, which is running JB and locked: http://www.android.gs/root-transformer-tf300t-jelly-bean-rom/
One thing I am not sure is ... the method presented in the article might assume the unit is unlocked. However, there is no clarification on that, nor do I see follow up questions.
For unlocked only
If you need a recovery
There is no alternative (unlock bootloader)
I hope to see a way for root jb without unlocking

I want to unlock my Infinity but when I was going to download the unlock tool from the Asus website I read that it only works for ICS .. I already did the OTA for jelly bean and still want to unlock. So my question is will the unlock tool work for jelly bean?

Yes, it has been confirmed to work on Jelly Bean by multiple users. It will work fine.

I used the unlock app on JB and it supposedly worked. The message "your device is now unlocked" or something similar was displayed.
I still have some questions:
1) How can I be sure my device is unlocked?
2) Is all the fuss about the .30 upgrade concerns nvflash only and not unlocking in general?
3) Would I be able to use custom ROMs in the future? Is there specific tools I will need to achieve that?
P.S. I use GNU/Linux on the desktop. I have both the SDK and the NDK installed. I already use adb sometimes and I know my way around CLI environments. I'm just new to Android and all the vendor lock-ins.

The good news is YES!
I did it yesterday and now I am unlocked, rooted using the method posted by hiemashu (how to root JB), updated recovery to TWRP2.2.2.2 64bit version, flashed with ULE 1.1 ROM and since updated to the newest TWRP 2.2.2.3.
The only thing to make sure of is that you use a USB port connected directly to the Motherboard. I tried one via a multi-card reader and while I was able to fastboot reboot I could not flash until I changed port.
Go for it! You won't regret it! Anyway, it's not really yours 'til you void the warranty!!!
Cheers,
Eric

How about the USB port on the keyboard / mobile dock? Or are you suggesting we'd need an OTG adapter directly into the TF700T tablet itself?
When i run the unlock tool, I get the message "the device model is not supported". Is there a work-around for this?

No, it didn't. Thanks for you reply but I discovered what was wrong: I followed a link within this or another thread to ASUS's unlock tool for the TF201. When I realized this, i simply downloaded the device-appropriate drive and am now unlocked.
Yes unlocked my infinity on jellybean 4.1.1
I unlocked via official asus unlocking tool and now i want to root it but i dont know how to do it. I never rooted bcoz its my first android tablet so can anybody help me with basics of how to root my infinity running jellybean 4.1.1.
Is there a way to root on this firmware version? I've done the searching but I've only managed to find things that supposedly only work for ICS.

Because of security increases in JellyBean there will not likely be a root method found for a while. Best to root before updating and use rootkeeper.
Oh crap. Thank you.

1st. I don't think anyone knows.
2nd. There's always the chance of not getting one anytime soon
3rd. If there is any info on it it will sure be on the top threads in either "general" or the "development" section so you will not miss it.
4th. I WANT ME SOME 4.2.1 LOVE TOO!!!! ( I too have the TG and I don't want to flash the tf300t ROM for various reasons)
