When I find out I wont receive any updte if my bootloader is unlocked I manual update the firmaware of my tablet. I was very dissapoint when I find out I had no more root permission and also the TWRP recovery seems to be gone. Now the problem is all the bloatware from asus come back and there is no way to remove (only using link to sd but it need root permisison).
Is there any way to root back my tablet? Assume I'm little be more than a noob!
Thanks in advance
When you say manually update, i'm guessing you updated to 10.4.2.20 so if you need help rooting you can always look to the link below for help.

You have one app which is named OTA ROOTKEEPER. (This application makes a backup or a protected backup of your device's root. Your device must already be rooted: OTA RootKeeper doesn't have the ability to root devices.
If you are just rooted but always locked, with this app you can backup and restore your root.
And use this for root : [ROOT/ROM] Root Stock/Deodex Firmware 10.4.2.20 (US/WW) | Insecure kernel !

Hello everybody,
I search a way to put my TFT101 to revolver 4.
My transformer get the android version 4.0.3 build 9.2.1.11.
I think I need to rollback to honeycomb, root my device and update with revolver 4 firmware, but I can't find how to rollback my firmware.
Is it another way to update to revolver ? How I could update with a simple method ?
Thanks for your answers
Root your device with vipermod.
Install recovery with install recovery app (Post 218 in thread)
Download Revolver rom
Flash rom in recovery
I can't see the point of downgrading

Root and use 3.2.0.1 roach-tf101-r1 recovery.
It's very good!

You don't need to downgrade if you use Vipermod Root (use option 1)
Once rooted, flash CWM Recovery. Then Superwipe to format data/system/caches. Then flash Revolver!

Thank you for your help,
I use thebadfrog solution successfully, i'm in revolver firmware
Hi,I had just received my Jellybean OTA update just a few hours ago,and I decided to root it,but don't know how to...Can anyone tell me the steps?
First you'll need to unlock your device. This will wipe everything on your phone so make sure you have a backup of important stuff.
Look at http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/Nexus_S:_Full_Update_Guide#Unlocking_the_Bootloader on how to unlock the bootloader.
After you've unlocked it, you'll need to install the latest CWM Recovery. It's explained at http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/Ne...de#Installing_the_ClockworkMod_Recovery_Image and you can find the latest version of CWM at http://www.clockworkmod.com/rommanager
Then use the recovery to flash superuser. You can find superuser at http://androidsu.com/superuser/ Download the latest version for ARM and put it on your phone. Then in the bootloader choose recovery and install zip from sdcard and choose the superuser zip file.
You can find a more complete guide at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1623481
Thanks, I will try it out tomorrow

Nexus S 4.1 Root Guide!
I have a thread for rooting the Nexus S JB 4.1
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1789216
Hello,
I attempted to root My European Xoom which is on JB 4.1.2 Folowed the instruction from FAQ How do I root my device.
I followed all the instructions from Manual Root Way, by XxLordxX and everything went fine. Did exactly as said so when I finally reached the point where you download "Root Checker Basic" and it says Sorry! This device does not have proper root access. But there is a superuser app but it doesnt do much. So whats gone wrong guys?
Plus once this problem is fixed do I need to do Step 5: Backup Image to SD card and Step 6: Restoring Image from SD card?
To load a custom rom.
Cheers
Hi,
The way I ended up rooting was to use the aio root tool to unlock boot loader, then I tried to root but failed, installed CWM with aio then flashed the pre rooted 4.1.2 can be found in Android development, then flashed Dream 4.2.2 an all out stable ROM using Sheild Kernel for OC it's incredibly smooth.
Hope that helps.
I have Indian moto g 16 GB Android 4.4.4 I have a few questions
1. I just want to root it without any custom recovery or rom. Only to try apps which require root. I am not interested in custom roms, happy with stock rom. I found Modaco's method for it. But many users did not find it working. Is there any other SIMPLE AND STABLE method for it without messing up with stock rom and recovery?
2. If I successfully root it without custom recovery what will be steps to unroot it and revert it back to stock 4.4.4 so that I could receive future OTA. (i had rooted my HTC one x with custom recovery so I know about unlocking bootloader). Will this process include flashing stock rom as there is already stock rom in phone
3. Is is necessary to download stock firmware if someone decide to revert back from rooted phone to stock. I mean not everyone has fast Internet connection to download those big 400-500 mb . Zip files. I read somewhere that we can backup the entire rom after rooting. So why not flash that backed up rom for reverting process. Why need to download..and For backing up the stock rom do we need to root with custom recovery or the Modaco's method (stock recovery root) will work.
You may find my third question stupid but I am not much into this stuff.
Please answer my all questions whether it is yes or no. You need not to provide detailed descriptions but just clear my confusion. I couldn't find these type of questions anywhere else on Internet. So may be useful for other users too. Thanx

Hey...yes you can root it but doing so requires an unlocked bootloader(which wipes all data on the phone..so backup)
To revert root you'll need stock recovery(since you say you don't want a custom recovery, skip flashing the stock recovery) and untouched stock ROM...
you can either download a stock fresh stock ROM[recommended]
Or
You can revert all root changes you did to the ROM(Xposed, root,busybox, e.t.c.)
Cheers mate
thanx for replying..
Ok reverting will be enough? I thought stock rom is no more Pure after we root it either by stock recovery or custom recovery. And if i choose the reverting method, how much total apps will i have to delete/uninstall?

You'll will have to remove all root adjustments you made...if you can't remember them all, it's best to flash a new zip...but in my case it was only Xposed and root so I uninstalled Xposed within the app, then went to supersu to revert root.
Good luck

1. Try Paul O´Brien´s (that guy from Modaco) method. I rooted my Moto G with stock 4.4.4 like a month ago. No need to mess with the recovery, easy and simple.
2. There is an option in SuperSU that deletes all SU binaries from the phone. It is not needed to update though. You can update with SU installed, unless you modified any system files that the OTA wants to patch.
3. No, as mentioned in 2. Just unroot, uninstall xposed and you are done.
