worked fine for me, you downloaded the right tool correct?

Just keep trying every 15 min or so, you will get it eventually. It took my like 50 tries. Also, you need to be connected to the internet.

I had the same problem with mine , i had to contact asus support , they tell me that my serial number and my wifi mac adress were not in their database so the unlocking tool wont work. They did the necessary and it worked after two days.

Drivers?

so if anyone is having problem getting the tablet unlocked with the unlock tool, it's likely they messed up your serial number and mac address in their file. i know this is true for my tablet because my tablet's mac address does not match the one they have on file. however, they are being a **** and refuse to change it unless i ship it in....sigh...

How to get fastboot... unlock first

Before the tablet can be recognized in fastboot, the device must be unlocked. Only after you unlock the device will you be able to put the device into "fastboot" mode. This is why fastboot does not recognize your device.
Unlocking requires a few things:
Go to the Asus site and download the v7 tool
copy the v7 tool to the tablet
run the v7 tool on your tablet from the tablet GUI
it will install the v7 unlocker application
run the unlocker application from your app drawer
you have to accept a few agreements
click the unlock button
after that, your device will reboot
This is how to confirm that the unlock tool was successful: After your TF300 reboots, you will see the normal ASUS logo in the middle and some very small text in the top left will say: "device unlocked."
Facts:
I own a TF300T
This is my first time modifiing an Android device
I have been reading countless forum entries for the past 4 weeks, just to make sure I get everything right and unbrickable
I just unlocked my tablet last night
I am on either .29 or .30 of ICS

[HELP] is my tablet bricked?

hi,
i bought yesterdy a tablet from a private person and not a store. the tablet looked new, wraped in original wrping and all, and i didn't started it on, since i was told the owner didn't even do the 8 hours charge.
after charging, i started on the tablet, and it got stuck on the ASUS logo. i tried hard reset (button down + power for 12 seconds or more) but all it doe's is again the asus logo and nothing more.
is there anything that can be done?
needless to say the person i bought it from is unrechable (going to the police to comlain of fraud, but i was too stupid and didn't took his full details )
Contact asus for the warranty if they let you. This shouldn't be in the dev section though.

Just download the firmware including original Rom straight from http://vip.asus.com/ Flash CWM. Unzip the package to INTERNAL SD, just extract ONCE. Boot into CWM, flash the package and see how it goes

If you need help go to the Index of the TF300T
It's a good start.
And then you came back and ask your questions that will be possibly without response.
It's a forum for share, indeed, but you must to try and search :good:
We are always here for help you
Edit: Don't be afraid, if your post has been moved to an another forum; go to => Transformer TF300T Q&Ac
first of all - thank you, but
here is the, i read all day the index (well some of the day), and there is nothing there that has commands for apx mode...
when i said i'm a noob, it was to say i need a bit of help, not a lot, some of the stuff i know, but still
any way, tried one click root tool, but device is not recognized.
my only hope is to work on apx mode, but i don't know how, or what can be done in that mode.

I saw that you had posted your problem elsewhere.
I see not other solution than to return the product that you purchased to Asus, with purchase (of the former owner) and sale invoices.
And try to explain your problem.
If I find something, I would come back to you

i am trying, but i have no recipt, since i bought it from a crook who disapeared (and foolishly i didn't take his full detailes).
whould apriciate the help, if you will find an idea, and also i hope asus lab will assist me, if they can, tomorow they will take the item and tell me if they can do anything.
let's hope the dumb ass didn't ruined the pad for good.
i will update
Do you have access to recovery or ANY adb access? Since asus didn't release the sbk for the TF300 (Only fastboot if your bootloader is unlocked) Idt you have NvFlash access, you could attempt it but without a sbk afaik Apx mode is useless.
If you can get fastboot/adb access via the volume-down+power menu you may be able to flash recovery and then a ROM or adb flash/fastboot flash a full restore stock blob through the staging partition.

That's why I can't explain why he can't flash one recovery by fastboot command.
Is that your installation of Asus drivers , and SDK is correct? just verify it
Access Adb or not? When you connect your TF can you access to your recovery or not?

ASUS tf300t fix root permissions error
this was the best place i could think to post this.
I can see that you are somewhat versed with my series of tablet so im hoping maybe you can help me.
I previously had rooted my device and did so pretty easily (fastboot flash CWM-Touch, root-signed.zip) yadda yadda.
Then I deciced i wanted to install CM 9.1(stable)[or so it said]
Downloaded the build onto sd card, wiped my caches and data and all that...CWM install .zip,(good), reboot, stuck at inital cold-boot screen with ASUS and TEGRA powered by NVIDIA logos.
Found a solution to that problem @ transformerforums.com- did a fastboot: flash system blob w/original JB OTA build (took forever, i even thought it froze my computer) i had to download from the asus support site and got the tablet up and running again....BUT, and this is the kicker, no root. I tried using CWM-touch to reinstall root-signed.zip, successful. Hit reboot and CWM popped up with your user su binary may be damaged. Repair? yes. Reboots fine, but then i tried to access a program that needed root, ERROR! IS DEVICE ROOTED? pops up... I checked my /system/xbin/su. still there but couldnt do anything with it...
ANY SUGGESTIONS TO HELP WOULD BE AWESOME. This isn't the first device ive cracked so im not exactly new but dont know enough about this to try fix anymore than what ive done and ive searched the forums over for the past four days and cant find anyone or anything that is similar to whatim experiencing...
please help.
Sincerely, SIK
P.S.-DONT USE CWM-TOUCH V6.0.3 ON THIS TABLET. YOU CANT MAKE RECOVERIES!!! IT SAYS IT DOES BUT DOESNT BUILD ANYTHING!

[Q] Rooting Issues

Hello,
So I'm trying to unlock and root my tf700t now that my warranty is expired and hope for an ASUS update is diminishing. I downloaded the unlock app from the website and went through the procedure. It took a few weeks and several emails with ASUS support but I think it is unlocked. The reason I say I think its unlocked is whenever I reboot the device, I don't get the message that says its unlocked. The unlock app however says the device is unlocked. So is my device unlocked?
I operated under the assumption that it was and tried to install the twrp recovery using the minimal adb and fastboot exe file. My tablet is recognized by my PC and I put the tablet in fastboot. The error I get when I do that is a writing error. It says writing recovery.... FAILED <remote: <INVALID STATE>>. Does this mean that I am not unlocked or did I do something incorrectly? Any help would be appreciated. I've been working on this for a few weeks and really want to get it moving.
Never heard that before..... If your bootlaoder is unlocked it should say so when you boot up.
Did you run the tool again?
If in doubt call Asus support and check if they have it as unlocked in their database.
But my guess is, since the recovery flash did not take, it's not.

They contacted me today and told me that it is unlocked. Everytime I run the tool, It says the device is unlocked. When I do the power + Vol down, I get the three icons ( RCK, Wipe data, and an android). Ill try applying the recovery again later tonight.

Sounds like you are all set. You run fast boot from a pc when connected over USB and on that screen with 3 icons If it fails you have a driver issue.

It says waiting for device. It stayed that way until i manually put it into fastboot. I've attached a screen shot of what it looks like when i did that. If my tablet isnt unlocked, how would I get it unlocked then? The unlock app ( both version) says the device is unlocked.
I am in the same boat - they think it is unlocked but it is not
The Asus v7 and v8 bootloaders both say "device is unlocked" but the fastbook info shows that it is not. I do not see any unlock inormation after the boot process starts. Also , the unlocker did not automatically restart my tablet. It also asked for my google credentials the first 5 times until the unlock said it worked. Now it does not ask that, it just says that it is unlocked. When I try to fastboot install the TWRP rom, it fails.
(remote - invalid state)
I called Asus and they have my tabler listed as unlocked. They are opening a case so that I can prove that it is unlocked.Then hopfully if they reset that setting, I can re-unlock it...
I was following this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2571542
Is there any work around? Please help!
I want TWRP and CM 10.2 on this slow TF700T tablet.

Well you typed fastboot device not fastboot devices.
Did you 2-step verification enabled for Google by any chance?
I think Asus need to update their database so you get another chance ... Good luck

No, I did not have two-step verification. I hope Asus creates a case and actually looks into it and resets my device's status in their system. It sounds like that is my only option -- a very lengthy and painful one.
I disabled 2 step authentication since it interfered with the app. I would get invalid password errors until I disabled it and then the app worked.

Are you sure your device gets recognized at all by your computer?
Usually the dialog just stays on "waiting for device" if the computer detects anything attached.
You have the necessary drivers installed?
Check in Device Manager (if you are running Windows) if there is a yellow triangle next to the entry for your tablet.
There is no other way to unlock. The bootloader is encrypted and only Asus has the key.

Fastboot device doesn't do anything.
I think you just need the right drivers. Let me see if I can dig them up from my collection. No point contacting Asus, they won't help you.
Try these, you need to unzip to same folder as fastboot and update device manager when in fastboot.

Where ever you are running fast boot from.
You must open a cmd window in the same directory or change to it using the CD command.

So I've been trying for the past couple of days to get root and flash a new rom but it doesnt seem to be working.

I have followed the TF700 forums for the last year pretty extensively and until about 2 weeks ago never read about anyone having this problem: Asus database having you unlocked, but it actually isn't. Since then I think I've read about 4 cases.
My best guess: It's a problem with the v8 Unlock app or the way their servers store/process the information they get from the Unlock Tool.
That you got to a support person willing to contact Taiwan is a big plus already. Other users just ran into a wall of: We do not support unlocking this device.
So stick with the person you contacted already. Take pictures of your boot process (to document that it does NOT say: This device is unlocked) and they always seem to ask for a screen shot of your About Tablet page with your SN number and MAC address.
Persistence seems to be the key. And luck to get someone at Asus willing to help....
There is no other way to unlock the bootloader. So you would be limited to rooting the tablet which would give you more freedom to tweak it and uninstall bloatware, but you still would have to deal with the slow stock rom.... :fingerscrossed:

Vodafone Smart 4 Turbo - Few Q's

I just got this phone today. Its a good little phone for the price but Id like to try some other stock 4.4 kernels if possible.
I have rooted the phone and I can get into fastboot mode but fastboot.exe just hangs at waiting for device.
I think this is a driver issue as in device manager in windows I have "Android" listed with no driver. I have downloaded fastboot and adb drivers but this has not worked.
Is there another driver I need for this to work with a Vodafone Smart 4 Turbo?
Thanks.
Bump anyone?

when you said you got into fastboot mode, did it just say fastboot mode or did it give you options? mine just says fastboot mode which is no good as it doesnt give options to start fastboot its because vodafone or coolpad have messed about with it that much its useless. ive just had a reply off coolpad americas as i sent email there didnt know uk address but they said there waiting for a reply from uk counterparts and then theyll sent me source code and other tools for phone.(we'll see if they do).
i thought bootloader was locked on these phones or is it because some have 4.4.4 firmware it cant be rooted as a lot with 4.4.2 firmware have confirmed root?
I dont have this phone anymore.
I never did manage to try other kernels etc
My friend has this phone, rooted via kingroot. Any custom roms (esp cyanogenmod) out for it? BTW, cant find any custom recovery, pls post links to them if you can find any thanks
2017 still main phone
Rooted it & took Gapps & everything off...still using it daily for surfing sessions.
Have the 7 version which is just as excellent...waiting for an easy root method, but I think they're being locked tight.
Would be nice to have an option in 'developer' section that pops up after 3 months & offers root...,....

This device does not have OEM unlock. Contact ASUS to try and resolve the issue with the unlock app but I suspect you have a converted phone that is getting rejected by the ASUS side. Attempting too fix it yourself will involve amending some device parameters, I think someone has added some notes somewhere on the forums here..
I made a comment on asus zentalk. I've been waiting for a week, no answer. There are 20 moderators, but one person is not responding. a disgraceful place.
Hey man i went to the internet cafe yesterday to install raw firmware. I downloaded win10 asus qualcom usb drivers , downloaded usb minimal android sdk, pressed the volume up power button, the computer did not see my phone on the start screen, I tried many times and it didn't work.
The computer sees the phone without entering the start screen. I even copied 40 movies to the phone. but every time I press the volume up/power button the computer does not see the phone when the start screen comes up.

How do I get out of this job? I risk losing imei and more. maybe my device will be hard bricked. Flashing raw software takes a lot of effort. first of all, my computer doesn't see my device on the start screen, I couldn't even take a step. I unlocked the bootloader hundreds of times on my previous phones. I rooted hundreds of times , I installed custom roms hundreds of times,. but I could not progress even one step on the Asus phone.

Suggest using the orginal Andrid driver directly from Google. There is no specific ASUS drivers needed for this device although the one in your link may work too. And yes, you do need to sort out your driver before you can flash from PC to the device with Fastboot commands.

Hi, your device seems to be a converted chinese version (with Tencent Games on the back) so you need to use this method to spoof the region if your phone and force the bootloader unlock: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...the-bootloader-of-your-rog-phone5-5s.4371255/
Saying and complaining ain't gonna help you out.
Lost people don't wanna reply as this is covered many times and can be found with search option on this forum.
Anyway his is relevant info for you :
1: The usb c port needed to use to flash etc in bootloader mode is on the side, NOT the bottom one.
2 : if option 1 this Still not working add device manual in driver section of computer, then is driver problem.
3: adb drivers/software/map with adb commands etc needs to be present on computer, or commands will not be executed correctly and give error.
4: of you have a Chinese phone CN FW that is flashed with the WW firmware, you will get problems, only way to solve this is to use correct firmware on device and upgrade.
This is also covered in a big topic on this forum.
5: of you need to go to a internet cafe do to flashing and install firmware, and you had Samsung xaomi etc and can't work this out yourself or Ith search option, o ask myself if you should mess with the phone in the first place,
When it goes wrong, it is bad phone, crap etc.... While it is user error. No hard feelings.
Hope you know enough now and get it fixed
