Anoyone wjho knows anything about JB og a Root for this device?
Iwould be happy the day i can get a custom firmware on it, sad that i dont know how to make this things on my own....
i think theres no way to root right now because the tf700kl has another soc as the tf700t and so the recovery from tf700t doesnt work.
and the recovery is the only way to root a asus device with jb on it.
so someone must make a recovery optimized for the tf700kl

There is still no bootloader unlocker for it either. I haven't dared to try the one for TF700T ICS. So even it there was a recovery, we might be screwed. The TF700KL is on ICS 4.0.4 atm btw. And the method what worked for TF700T 4.0.3 does not work it seems (I tried...).

There is no JB yet and all the files from the Asus website have vanished.

If you didn't root before the update then no, not without unlocking the bootloader.

Unlocking bootloader IS possible on JB?
Then I can root?
Are there any major benefits to rooting?
I know on my SGS2 i see reasons to root.....hot spot, etc...
But what about transformer?

Reasons for rooting are generally the same across devices. Now having a WiFi only device kind of negates the need for hotspot, but you get the idea.
Asus has provided the unlock tool for the bootloader, but I've not heard 100% confirmation of someone using it successfully with jb as the ROM and bootloader locked.

The Asus bootloader unlock tool works fine from the OTA JB.
Just picked up the tablet today and this is my second Android device. I currently have a samsung galaxy skyrocket and am a bit of a flashing ROM junky
I have no experience with a locked bootloader device though.
Is it better to root and add recovery in the stock ICS or is it ok to root and add recovery in JB

We are 2 peas in a pod, music. Been flashing the crap out of my SG2 rocket! On R4INS's JB now and....smoove!
But this bootloader is new to me, too. I did the OTA yesterday, when I got the pad. Now it seems I am back peddling,
trying to get up to speed.

Dude, make a nandroid, and try R4INS 4.1.1 nuff said. Only SMALL drawback is flash, and it wont be around much longer...
This mofo has been at it for 2 weeks solid, with mucho user feedback...hell, I even donated $20 to him.
Now....back to this Tablet thing....
Does someone tried to use the same method as for Nexus 7, unlock oem and then install CWM recovery?
OK here are the situations I've found...
Rooting with ICS on this tablet is easy - use debugfs one click method.
Upgrading to jb after being rooted should be OK as long as you backup with something like ota root keeper. I did the upgrade and did keep root this way.
once on jb you cannot wipe data and keep root at this time. The update has altered the /data location severing app from root permission and I have yet to find a way to get it back.
rooting after a jb upgrade is not possible just yet.
Finally, all of these statements are based on a locked boot loader. If you want to unlock, you can pretty much do what you want.

Someone will crack this beast. Until then we wait.
Since the last update I'm having serious issues with my tablet and I'm assuming that they are related to the Update. The major problem is with the touchscreen that seems to be touched in a specific area (around 1 inch from bottom , portrait or landscape mode, doesn't matter)... and make nearly impossible to work with the tablet...
Said that...
I really want to go back to I.C.S.... ANYONE CAN HELP.... PLEASE!!!

Thoses guides are for people that have'nt installed the OTA JB update, the OP should make that clear in his guide. You cannot downgade from JB to ICS, this is a known fact. The bootloader changes when you update to JB and you cannot go back to the ICS bootloader.

So correct me if I'm right,I'm on stock OTA JB, since I can't go back to ICS to root/flash ROM's,what can I actually do now,unlock the bootloader ,if so why for, root, but what prerequisites do I take?
I'm new to the tab world so be gentle,

The Asus unlock tool works with the JB bootloader so you will be able to flash a new recovery and some JB rom's, only one is avaible at the moment and it's Hydro.

Download and run the unlock tool, then you need to flash a custom recovery with your computer. Then you can follow the HOWTO to flash HYDRO.

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.
Hi
This might be possible, or not. But anyone know kf there is NVFlash in developement for JB? As far as i know its only for ICS. Now il let you experts decide if this is actually possible, as im not expirienced in this area.
Thanks
No, if you want to have Nvflasher support, you will have to use Android Icecream Sundwich. On Jelly Bean it's impossible.

impossible is excessive but its true that till now nobody has found any fault in the new encryption measures.
brute force its not praticable so the only way are A) somebody find some kind of exploit or B) Nvidia and Asus releases their keys.

So I decided to buy a TF300T - though I wonder if there'll be JB or ICS on it...did Asus manufacture TF300T with JB already on it?
Because if not, then this NVFlash seems like a pretty good thing to me

hi, First I want to describe my problem. Many of tf700 users had update failure when jb came out and I am one of them. I used my tablet with ics until today. I want to update it to jb. I already read some manuel updating guides but no luck I couldnt get it worked. Even followed the guide about dmclient etc. And many of these guides they are redirecting me to asus website for jb firmware. In asus site when choosing OS there is no OS to be selected ! I dont know why. I am on .30 version of ics. Thanks in advance

OK, so you have a lot of options, do you want to run custom rom?? it's a night and day between custom rom and stock. If you are unlocked, there is NO REASON to stay with stock rom!!!
Yeah I unlocked for it but you know whats my problem. I can flash ics custom roms I know. Is there a way update to jb with twrp ? Or what do you recommend me to do
For example can I directly flash cleanrom while i am not on jb ?

with twrp you could flash full stock JB firmware (included JB bootloader), or just flash independant JB bootloader, then flash cleanrom. The easiest way is flash JB bootloader then Cleanrom. Make sure your twrp is either version 2.3.10 or newer.
JB bootloader and cleanrom can be found here:
