Hello guys.
I'm sorry for the noob questions, but I'm very new to the Android world.
I just bought an Asus TF700T and I decided to root it.
This wasn't possible as my device had JB installed, so I decided to downgrade it to ICS with a method that could keep it locked.
After that I rooted it without any problems
First of all my first question is this:
Is it normal that my tablet now is full of chinese applications? I downloaded the firmware from the asus site so I'm just wondering why it is like that and how to fix it
Also is it normal that I don't have the google play store application installed?
After this I wanted to know the correct steps to upgrade it again to JB keeping the root at the same time
Thanks a lot
Sounds to me like you flashed the Taiwanese firmware.

ye you are totally right...
I'm trying to install the WW version now.
Anyway after I installed it and rooted it how can I update to the latest version of JB?
thanks
Edit: I tried to download Root Keeper and to update it to JB, but the root is gone
So I'm stuck at the upgrading part
You need to install voodo before you update to JB, save the root and then temp un-root it.
If that doesn't work as easily as that (which it didn't in my case) then follow this guide

That worked great for me

I'm afraid it didn't work.
I tried the oldest version though, the only one with the sh script.
Hello,
I managed to run the latest version and it seems we've got a problem. Apparently Transformers and Nexus 7 are not "permeable" to the exploit.
Needs to be investigated, there is a post in the Nexus 7 section...

You won't be able to use the updates from TF700T since that device is pretty different from TF700KL (Tegra3 vs Krait S4, wifi vs LTE etc).
I also have the TF700KL and I don't think we will see too much development going on, since there are very few people that have one.
My hopes are that ASUS will release the JB update (as kind of promised) and a bootloader unlocking tool (the TF700T unlocking app does not work). Then it's just a matter of building CWM for it. I haven't been able the get a hold of the stock recovery image for the TF700KL, since I don't have root.
We'll see what happens. At this point it's in ASUS hands...

Very quiet from the Asus front. Have sent them a query about JB and root and after three days they closed it without replying.
Jelly Bean is here but I am having trouble updating it as it does not find the file even though it is on the external sdcard

Unlocking, Rooting, and ROM's question
I'm new with Tablets forgive me if this is a stupid question but is there possably any way to use one program to unlock and root or just root the Asus TF300T without messing with the ROM on version 4.2.1 android jelly bean? The reason I ask is bc I'm use to doing things and rooting on my droid razr and for that all you need is razr utility. So basically is there a utility out there or wil there be one in the future for my Asus TF300T like something thats simple and your rooted? please somebody let me know it I'm dieing to get this TF rooted.
I have a rooted and unlocked tf300t running 4.1.1 and CleanRom 2.5. After being away from the scene for awhile, I came back to see that they had released 4.2 for my device. Is it possible to update my device to 4.2 or am I stuck at 4.1.1 seeing as how I am not running an Asus firmware. I am really overwhelmed right now, and getting very frustrated. Any insight would be a tremendous help. Thank you very much for even taking the time to read my post.

I would say....
Return to stock Asus ROM v4.1
Reflash appropriate recovery...
Once stable, flash stock Asus 4.2...
Reflash appropriate recovery which will be different than 4.1 recovery.... Read the twrp thread carefully for info on this. If in doubt, there's an upgrade guide in the general section.

Hi!,
I have my asus TF300 unlock in version 4.1.1 with the BlueROM (this is since Oct 2012).
I would like to go for 4.2.2 (mainly flash 11 support is the cause)
Ive been searching and I can see a lot of brick devices...
Mine is already unlocked and rooted in 4.1.1
Is there any guide to go for 4.2.2?
Do I need to:
- update bootloader
- install room
- root 4.2?
Or what? I am confused...
update done with success!

hey im in the same boat. im on an old CROMI rom 4.1( rooted and unlocked boot loader) and i want to go to stock 4.2 and then re-root.
how did you complete this. im worried about bricking it.
i was planning on flashing the stock 4.2 (10.1.6.15 update) from asus then rooting it with the new method to avoid bricking.
is this what you did?
