I have unlocked my bootloader's pad using the original asus application downloaded from the asus site. Is there a way to restore the original boot loader? I'm not interesting about the guaranty I want my pad like when I bought it. Thanks

I just got a tf300 and it keeps telling me to do the update. Should I take the update or would this make it harder to flash etc?

that depends.
if you only want to root it but keep stock firmware and recovery, you should do it now before updating. as long as you are on version .17 you can use sparky root to root, OTA root keeper to backup root, update, use OTA root keeper to restore Root and enjoy.
if you want to Flash ROM's and stuff, you can do whatever you like. you will have to unlock the bootloader and as far as i can tell, that is supposed to work on any software version as long as it is ICS. unlock, flash recovery, flash your ROM of choice.

So if I want to flash stuff it won't matter? Most ROMs will come rooted, so then do the update?

You can update and still root on the latest firmware. I got mine and updated out of the box and was able to root it easily. I don't know why someone is saying you need to be on .17

Ok so there's no way to do it without unlocking the bootloader using the asus utility?

Even if you update to .30, you could always root it via Debugfs method.

The only thing you can do without unlocking the bootloader is rooting it, nothing else.

not sure waht your after mate to get back to stock just download the firmware from asus extract it once and put on the root of your tablet, then boot into recovery and wipe it the flash the stock firmware.
What's the method to get to recovery? I haven't installed cw yet but it should have stock recovery, right?

As I know it is possible to backup the partition before unlock, and the flash it back, but ASUS will still have you device as unlocked register. But what will ASUS say when he get a device for repair with is register as unlocked but doesn't show the 'Unlocked'? I my country they is phrase - 'Make you stupid and you will get free' , what if I say I don't know what is unlocking and that she must made a mistake? Maybe we can trick ASUS . Just a idea from my.

My device was unlocked but not anymore and I send it to Asus a few days ago so we will see.
Yes, but I mean that too we can try relock it, so it don't show "device is unlocked" when booting it up, then you can say that it is a mistake that you device is unlocked, you can lie that you never did it.

No way that I know of to work around a locked bootloader. It needs to be unlocked in order to flash a recovery like CWM or TWRP.
