Aw OK. So now I have to find a good rom..
U can always download stock rom (update) zip from asus website and flash it using recovery or wolfs method. But u will lose everything ;(

No they don't unless you were previously rooted on ICS, saved it with Voodoo OTA RootKeeper, had SU installed.
If your bootloader is unlocked, you could flash a rooted Jelly Bean ROM like CM10.
Go to get.cm for the latest official release. I'm running that baby now.

Root bootloader rom

Just bought my tf300 today. I searched a little but i am confused. My firmware is 9.4.3.30 i am still 0n ICS. What is the best guide to gaining root unlocking the bootloader and a rom. Would rather stay away from abd only because my computer is not set up with it. Do i upgrade to stock jelly bean then use the asus unlock apk? What is the most up to date guide?
Thank you.

You can unlock with the Asus Unlock app on ICS. There is currently no root for locked bootloaders on JB. ICS can still be rooted with the bootloader locked.
Thank you. What do you recommend doing. Staying on ics and keeping the bootloader lock? Or unlocked and jelly bean? Was kinda thinking about running black bean. What are your thoughts or experience?

Black Bean runs on ICS so no need to upgrade to JB for it....
What is the most current way to root?

So far as I know (and I don't have my tablet yet):

Stay on ICS, from JB is difficult to move, currently.

Ics to JB

I have the bootloader unlocked rooted and have hydro ICS. If I want to move to JB and I just flash a JB rom? Or do I need to change to a different recovery? I understand that I can't go back to ics unless I do the nvflash back up. Also what JB rom has flash working?
Thank you

[Q] updating to 4.2 bootloader?

To update to 4.2 bootloader, would i just do a factory reset and then flash the Asus stock firmware? I'm on 4.1 right now
Correct. I just updated mines a few days ago,worked perfect. Also,you might want to install a 4.2 recovery to go with that.
