The ASUS download site for the TF700T contains firmware only for the current 4.1.1 as far as I can tell.
I need to downgrade to JB from ICS so I can root.
Can someone point me in the right direction.
Thanks

Wrong section. Should be posted in Q&A, not development.
You can't downgrade to JB from ICS, it's the other way around. You have to downgrade FROM JB TO ICS if you want to root your tablet. All firmware versions can be found here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1946456
Please use the search next time.

You can get it from here.
Thanks
.. and by the way I did search, I just didn't do a good job. Hard to break through the intimidation. I feel like I'm buying soup on Seinfeld.
But thanks.

My TF700T is now at the same place as my Tf200.

hi guys,
My AT version is B70 and according to several topics I read, what I should use is razorclaw. However, when I installed and runned, the screen noticed me that: "this device lacks the needed file (bad luck).". I don't know what else to do so plz help me =((
Ics or hc Firmware?

Yep,
if it is ics .21 rom from asus then you cant root it with razorclaw.
see:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=25385687
to solve this.
well, I don't know how to check if mine is ISC.21 or not but when I go to "about tablet" in the settings, the build number of my AT 101 is 9.2.1.21. Is this what u mean? And after looking into the topic above, 9.2.1.21 is not listed .
Sry if I trouble u so much but seriously, I'm newbie at this kind of stuffs
9.2.1.21 is ICS.21. The method in last post can get you back to 9.2.1.17 which can be rooted with viperMod.
Dear Persim,
as you can read in the and razorclaw and vipermod forum, it still does not work for ICS 9.2.1.21
see http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1427125
that's why I gave you the link to the forum that will help you to down grade to 9.2.1.19. That way you can use vipermod to root the device, then install ota root keeper and then upgrade to ics 9.2.1.21 again.
Just try to read the 1 st post in the Wolf's ultimate flash and downgrade guide, and see if it works for you. Because this guide is in the general forum you are able to post questions in that forum if you have problems.
If I was sitting next to you I would help but I think that the distance is a little bit to far so, see what that guide can do for you.....
goodluck.......
RazorClaw only work on 8.6.5.19 firmware. That's a long tone ago.
You don't even need to roll back, just use Wolf's method 3
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
Hi guys
I´m buying a second hand transformer prime.TF201 but no post it in developers forum yet
This tablet have a JB stock rom version so isn´t roted unafortunaly.
My question is: I´ts possible rooted or flashed this stock ROM or downgrade? The last I read, that only roted the ICS version, It´s true?
Thx :good:
I miss one question
How I can see if my Transformer device It´s unlocking?
If your tf201 was unlocked with the asus tool, then when it boots it will say 'bootloader unlocked' in the top left.
As far as I'm aware you cannot unlock if you upgraded to JB before unlocking, it seems to implied by the prerequisits section of:
androidroot__dot__mobi__slash__t3_nvflash/
for some reason it wont let me post urls, so you can hopefully work out the url that i mean above (t3_nvflash is one word)
cool
!!! Like it
I cant stand this anymore, and I keep getting the communications error running the latest ASUS unlock program.....

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.
