Guide to Root TF300T - JRO03C.US_epad-10.4.2.17-20121018

I'm more confused than ever on trying to find the *correct* guide to root my TF300T. The development forum has mislabeled threads, and most guides I found were guiding the root process for a device with a 9.x.x.x firmware. So, that said, can anyone point me to the CORRECT guide so I can root my TF running 10.4.2.17 please? Thanks.

So first off I totally understand the apprehension. I have rooted a lot thingd and this tablet seems especially technical and convoluted.
First read through this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1697227
1) In that thread download the "unlock bootloader" app, run it and unlock the bootloader. Your device warranty will now be void and it will say "device unlocked" in the top left corner every time you boot it up.
2) Now go to this thread, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1845377, scroll down to Part 3 and download the "fastboot + JB recovery" files. Extract them into the Fastboot folder that they are zipped in. There will be two .dll files, an ADB file, a Fastboot file and a twrp.blob file.
3) Turn off your tablet. Once it's off press the power and vol/dwn buttons at the same time. Keep holding them down until you see the screen with "RCK", "android", a usb symbol, and "wipe data". Once in that screen let go and use the Vol/dwn to move the cursor and vol/up to select the USB icon. Plug your tablet into your computer and the computer should recognize it as a "fastboot" device. You can check under "devices and printers".
4) Enter the "Fastboot" folder and while holding down shift, right click the mouse. In the menu you should have the option "open command window here". Select that and it will open a cmd window. Type in the line:
fastboot -i 0x0b05 flash recovery twrp.blob
This will copy the TWRP recovery file to the tablet and flash it. You will see a blue progress bar on your tablet while this is happening. Once that is done type:
fastboot -i 0x0b05 reboot
This will reboot your tablet and you will now have TWRP recovery installed.
5)Once in android again, go to this thread, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1668173, and download the "root-signed.zip" file in the second post and copy it to the tablet.
6)Turn off the tablet and boot into recovery by holding power and vol/dwn again. Once at the menu select "RCK" with Vol/up. It will boot into TWRP recovery now. Install the "root-signed.zip" file, reboot and the tablet should be rooted.
At this point I recommend creating a backup in recovery in case anything goes wrong from here on out.
Now you can flash any ROM your heart desires. I recommend CleanROM 2.7. It's fast, clean and very easy to install.
TWRP is easily the best recovery for this tablet. I have had many problems with CWM not installing ROM's properly and causing boot issues.
I hope this help you out. I know it's kind of a mine field of information but it works very nicely.

This is a relatively big deal: while you could root stock ICS ROMs pretty easily, you can't do it on stock JB ROMs without unlocking the bootloader, Once you're unlocked, however, it's a piece of cake.

For the amateurs. Could you elaborate on these steps?
Step (1) (a) which file to download? the .apk for the .exe file?
(b) Download to where (the tablet or onto a laptop/desktop)?
Step (2): (a) Again, download to where? Tablet or laptop/desktop? And extract to where?
Step (3) & (4): This make it sounds like the files in previous steps should be downloaded and extracted to a laptop/desktop?
Step (5) & (6): CleanRom 2.7 is already rooted. Do we need to run these steps? Or can we install CleanRom after Step 4?
Backup: What files to back up? Everything?
Critical Questions:
Do the above steps work for tablets already on Android version 4.1.1 with .29 (or .17) builds?
Sidenote: Last night, my tablets had an ASUS update and it went from build .29 to .17. Is this strange? It's going backward?

I have followed these instructions exactly, but titanium and adaway both cannot aquire root privileges. and reason why?

These steps are not technically required but I put them in there because then you have a backup copy of stock JB that is rooted.

Have you confirmed that you are truly rooted or are these apps the only ones that can't access the root directory?

So you have to root first in order to do a backup?

No you do not have to root first to do a backup.

I would try and clear the cache and data for supersu under settings>apps and that might make it start working properly.

I read the reply's to your Q, but as I have the same build as you I still haven't found one that anyone claims has worked.
You have any success?

Root TF300T
Thank you so very much for that very helpful post. Much appreciated.
After reading your instructions, I'm happy to proceed but may I ask one question first.
I've unlocked my TF300 with the ASUS application.
My build number is 10.4.2.18-20121122. It's a UK model.
Am I safe to use your instructions with this build?
Kind regards

I never obtained root, and since my OP, I've gotten an OTA as well, so it's back to square one in finding a viable root method.

I'm in the same boat. Got a 300 for Christmas, bumped up to JB w/o reading here first (yeah...that was dumb). So from looking around the only way to root is to unlock and the only way to unlock right now is via the ASUS tool which - from what I've gathered - will send my serial number to ASUS and void my warranty correct?
A few questions:
1.) does anyone know if work is being done to be able to unlock/relock w/o voiding the warranty? I love root, but I won't do it while in warranty in case something unthinkable happens . I'm not sure how much of this would be true, but can't we use nvflash to download the locked bootloader then find a way to spoof the ASUS unlock authorization? Hell, unless each tablet uses a different signature couldn't we just post the nvflash-able locked/unlocked bootloaders? I'm thinking back to the flash processes from my Tegra2 gTablet. I could be way off base, but it seems plausible with my limited knowledge.
2.) is it possible to root w/o unlocking? I know I won't get CWM/TWRP and the ability to load non-stock ROMs but I can live with that. I'd like to be able to run TiB, ES File - Root, etc though. I thought I saw something about obtaining root w/o unlock, but I can't find it and it might have been ICS instructions.
3.) I take it there's no downgrading back to ICS that would fix this either....

Hi!
You can try to unlock your device with AsusUnlock app ! - is the safe way to unlock bootloader ! ( certainly will void your warranty ! )
I don't think that's cause for concern ...I've unlocked bootloader in the very next day after I bought it ( in august this year )
- so far I think I made five hundred " flash and reflash rom " - ( for testing "custom roms" ) - and the device shows like the first day when I bought it
So, be more confident - the device is not so easily to break , you can install as many "custom roms" as you want - you just have to be very careful about the steps that you make - when you try to install a custom rom !
Good luck ! :good:
regards,
Surdu Petru

Not worried so much about flashing causing issues. I've flashed my gTab more times than I can count. More worried about pre-voiding the warranty should I have any hardware issues. Like my battery life seems to be horrible and it might need sent in for that.

[Q] A new US TF700 but a few questions.....

Just bought a TF700 from Amazon (much cheaper in the States than where i live) but got a few questions:
(a) Its still on ICS and I suspect that i will end up installing custom roms etc as I have done with my GS2. I read that i should before i root or unlock bootloder i should backup using NVflash (i think mine is pre 30) but does that prevent me from going to JB or does it not matter?
(b) I use wifi channel 13 at home, but i know my tablet as i bought in US probably has wifi channels 1 to 11. How can i change the wifi to include up to channel 13?
(c) Are there any other diff between a US version of TF700 and a WW version? I note that on the Asus website they have different firmwares.
Thanks!

It is possible to convert your tab to the World Wide or other appropriate firmware by a reflash.
Do you know how this is accomplished?
If not post back and we can guide you.
Also I'm not sure about the wifi channel change, yet there there is most likely a way to change that.

The way to change the WiFi is via a build.prop text edit hack. It's as simple as changing the country code from US to GB
You must be at least rooted to do it. Of course if you take an nvflash blob copy then unlock the world is your oyster! :victory:

Thanks but could you provide more info on how to edit build.prop??
I will try and root tonight. Can you explain what is an nvflash blob copy??? I come from using GS2 where there was not a need to unlock the bootloader but i read that unlocking the bootloader (and therefore losing warranty) is required in order to install a custom rom.

Doing the nvflash thing will in no way stop you updating to jellybean however updating to jellybean will stop you doing the nvflash thing. Nvfash is security nothing more. You can recover from any bricks after you do it.
As for gaining root and editing build.prop I would suggest you read the stickies in the general forum. Think about unlocking and flashing a custom rom if you are not comfortable doing the edits yourself as it's all too easy to get into a bootloop (recoverable) if you don't know what you are doing.

Hi, I have a tf700 that I bought from the US and I live in the UK, I have always used US firmware and have never had a problem with wifi.

You won't but if you set your UK wifi router to use channel 13 you will Your US infinity won' see it. To fix you flash a WW rom or do the build prop edit and it will work again.
As for other differences I'm yet to find any yet. Other than wifi they both behave the same way.

AFAIK, the list of included system apps is slightly different, and also the other apps are at least recompiled for each country version.

Good news......confirmed my new tab is 9.4.5.26 version which i think will enable me to use NVflash!!
I want to try Cleanrom and want to make sure i get this absolutely correct (i dun wanna brick my new tf700!!!).
(a) Follow the guide to backup using NVflash (http://androidroot.mobi/t3_nvflash/)
(b) Install the official asus 4.1.1 bootloader (current version seems to be V10.4.4.23)
(c) Install TWRP 2.3.1.0 (follow this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1938129)
(d) Do i still need to install SuperSU or can I go to install Cleanrom directly??
Is there anything i should be mindful of before flashing??
Thanks in advance!!!!

You'll need to unlock it at some point too
SuperSu is included in CleanROM so not needed.
It's all very straight forward and remember because you are coming from Stock you won't need to do a full wipe.

Lastly, should i install odex or deodex version of cleanrom??? The verdict seems to be split.....not sure what practical difference there is between the two..............

I'd start with the deodex version but they are so close to each other and easy to switch between. Try them both. You don't lose any apps or data by switching between the two as same base.

Trouble opening Unlocker_V8

I am trying to install recovery and root the TF300T that I just got. It looked like I needed to start off by unlocking the bootloader. I downloaded the file from the Asus website (V8 unlocker) since it is running 4.2.1. However after trying to run the unlocker, I keep getting "There was trouble parsing the package" immediately upon opening the APK file. I have been able to install other APK's without a problem. I tried 2 different file managers, downloaded v8 unlocker from 2 different locations, tried downloading it directly to device as well as transferring from PC. Still no luck. Is there anyone that can assist with this? Thanks.

Im pretty sure there is a Windows Utility you can try to connect with the tablet over ADB to unlock.

That would make sense, but I've had trouble finding a utility to do so. I will look around a bit more, but there's nor eason I shouldn't be able to run that APK. The V7 one runs fine, but finishes with some unknown error.

Well it looks like I was able to get it rooted, but I still can't install another ROM because I can't unlock the frickin bootloader. The guide that I followed didn't mention having to unlock the bootloader before being able to install the TWRP recovery. I went ahead and follwoed the instructions to flash the TWRP recovery and now my recovery image is shot. I need an option other than the APK tool from Asus for unlocking the bootloader.

The unlocker-V7 worked on the latest jellybean without any issues. I had to contact asus after registering the device on their site. i included the SN and MAC address. I also included a link to the google search results for the issue so they know the extent of it. They did something on their end and V7 was able to run and unlock it. They got back to me the next business day as well.

Pretty sure I have tried both as soon as there was a post here about it but just to make sure I just downloaded 7 from the asus site right now and gave it a shot and sure enough i get a network error, try again, etc. I know they have duplicate MAC addresses on file for me and each and every time i asked them to update their site with my current MAC they talk about "im sorry...we cant support unlocking......it voids your warranty"........blah blah blah...... meanwhile they provide the tool. Go figure. That's why I just said F it I wont buy another Asus product again.

Rooting the TF300TG

Hello, I own a TF300TG which mounts 4.2.1 android version, 10.6.2.11 fw.
I'm trying to root it with SRS root (eset32 detected it as trojan, btw) but it keeps failing.
VROOT doesn't even install on my PC (i don't know why, it's written in chinese).
how can I obtain root privileges?

The easiest way is to unlock your bootloader, install a custom recovery like TWRP and then flash the SuperSU ZIP from that recovery.
Make sure you double-check that you picked the right recovery version for your bootloader.

Yeah, it is tricky to pick the right recovery version with all those incompatible bootloaders and the new KitKat ROMs needing yet another one to flash properly.
There are other options for rooting, search for motochopper and similar tools, but personally I don't regard them as simple and some of them have been reported to contain malware.
To help you find the right recovery version, first need to know the version of your bootloader. You can find it at the top left of the bootloader screen. The interesting part are the numbers starting with 10. or 9. for really old ones. Then need to know, what ROM you want to root. Using stock Asus ROM?
You can safely use a recovery for TF300T; it is much more important to pick the right version for your bootloader.

The guide looks good to me and should work fine for your boot loader.
Instead of the attached TWRP, you can safely use any TWRP for the TF300T, as long as it has -42 in the name. 2.6.0.0 might be a little buggy, not sure.

Just to confirm that i have TF300TG with JB 4.2.1 and my bootloader is 10.6.2.11 and i have used the link that you quoted in this reply (this) and all work for me just fine.:good:

Kingo (google it) apparently works. so if you dont want to unlock the bootloader and whatnot, try that.

thanks for your answers, first I will try kingo and if it doesn't work I will try the method on the link I posted!

Moto One 5G Ace Rooted with TWRP using stock Firmware

First of all, I am not a dev and this write up contains steps used by various devs to achieve fulll root. For some, these steps have worked out well. But, not for me. I had issues with some of the steps not fully working as they should, so I did some research until I could piece together something that worked for me. Here's what I did and managed to get fully rooted using the boot.img from the stock firmware after doing all the steps from this link Articul8Madness's Rooting Guide and couldn't get full root access even after using the steps from this link Articul8Madness's Guide for R/W Access. As I have said, these steps worked for most people. I wasn't one of them.
I followed the steps up to the step where the boot.img is modded by Magisk. This is where I omitted using the modded boot.img and used the original boot.img from the stock firmware and I then ran the flashfile script as mentioned in the steps. After everything was applied I then, rebooted the phone, started setup, disabled System Updates, and I then proceeded to install TWRP using the steps from this link https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1KZ0xhstQ9V_7TYt3xs7P5XdroYX61CEA after opening Minimal ADB and Fastboot applying these scripts
adb reboot fastboot
then apply this
fastboot flash recovery twrp-3.5.2_10-kiev.img
I then rebooted into recovery and installed TWRP to all available partitions. I then installed Magisk, enabled Systemless Hosts in settings, and rebooted. Afterwards, I used the steps here Munjeni's RW in Super Partition Tool to get RW in super partitions after downloading and using superrepack. I had omitted the ./superrepack /dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/super system_a in order to have it applied to all available partitions. Everything worked out great. I then rebooted, updated Magisk, installed Root Checker and Root Explorer with Superuser root access. I then installed Adaway from https://github.com/AdAway/AdAway and clicking on the Get It On AdAway image. Anything that requires root access here on out, can now be installed. As for the SafetyNet issue, I have not had any problem with it at all even though the check had failed. All is now working well and I sincerely hope that this guide will help others as it have helped me. I may have done this write up but, all credits goes to the true devs.
Time for devs to start making custom Roms now that TWRP can be installed.

Your first link doesn't work for me. The Adaway link works. FYI.

WOW!!! I see what I did wrong. All links are now working.

Hi there. As i understand Windows PC is required for this unlocking? Any idea on Linux emulated on Chrome OS?

Sorry, but you will have to ask one of the Devs in the links that I've provided in the OP. Perhaps they are more suited to help with that.

Linux will work fine. All the commands required are done thru a terminal session. Use a text editor to get the long unlock code from the phone.
Good luck.

Ok about terminal. I used cmd , but bootloader cannot be unlocked official way nor at&t unlockable coz i don't live in usa.I will try 3rd party helpers.

You did a fantastic job. This worked perfectly. Some notes:
1) You must install the Motorola device driver in Windows. Doesn't work with leftover drivers that seem to communicate just fine with the phone.
2) You have to unlock the bootloader via Motorola's website if it is locked. Key step not communicated: when you enter in the code to unlock at the computer with a fastboot command the phone will ask you to confirm that you want it unlocked. If you don't look at your phone and answer the question it will time out.
3) When you boot into TWRP it will ask for a password if you have a screen lock set. The password is your screen lock. No big deal.
4) Once you are in TWRP install the Magisk Zip file and let it do its magic.
5) Enjoy a fully unlocked stock firmware. It's awesome.
Thanks again.

You're very welcome. And thanks for the added info, I forgot to add that in the steps. Thanks again.

Sorry for the late reply. I really haven't decided yet if I'll update to Android 11. I would imagine it'll be rooted in the same manner. If I could get ahold of the US version, I may give it a shot.

I've update to android 11 and am continuing to use your version of twrp but it's off a little bit in terms of the partitions it loads. Seems to work otherwise.

I don't have an answer for that at this time since I'm still on 10. That'd be too much like a blind man in a desert looking for shade and telling another which way to go.

Greetings, I have a few questions. re the Moto G 5G (One 5G Ace)
I've not found a TWRP for this phone yet which were you using?
In other phones it was important to backup the IMEI (EFS ) and 'persistent' partitions. Do we not do that with this phone as well?
Thx in advance

Sorry for the late reply. I used this version of TWRP twrp-3.5.2_10-kiev.img. As far as the IMEI (EFS) question, it wasn't required when using this root process. However, you can back those up if you like.
