I'm on the brink of unlocking the bootloader on my TF300T (shipped with ICS; got it December 2012), but wanted to verify a couple things before taking the plunge.
I understand that OTA updates from Asus will no longer work. I also see that Asus has all their firmware updates available for direct download from their website - aside from losing root, are there any reasons why I can't use those manual updaters?
I read the "don't install CM10 yet on the 4.2 bootloader" sticky, so I'm not even going to try CM10 yet (although I saw an unofficial CM10.1 is compatible). Once it's compatible, is it worth flashing? I use CM on my phone (HTC Evo 4G) because I don't like Sense (and would have been stuck with Gingerbread!), but on the TF300T, Asus's ROM is generally pretty decent, so what is the advantage (if any)?
Right now, all I want to do is:
Unlock the bootloader using the official Asus APK
Install recovery using this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2187982
Root the stock ROM using the same thread
I've looked through the warning threads and most recent stuff here on XDA. Is there anything else I need to worry about, or does the above-referenced thread have me covered?
Anyone? I just want to make CERTAIN I'm covered before I take the plunge...

Well you can root without unlocking if that's all you want to do. You'll get much more benefit unlocking and flashing a custom ROM though.
That guide has it all covered.
I thought with JB and the 4.2 bootloader, you had to unlock to root? Is that not true?
Everything I've seen about rooting indicates that you have to be running ICS to root; JB blocks the previous exploit that was used for rooting.

Bought the TF300 three days ago. Installed all OTA updates, latest bootloader. Rooted with Motofail, seems fine so far.

Is there a particular ROM that's better than the stock JB? I especially like the built-in performance widgets in the notification bar in Asus's ROM. That being said, I could do without the crapware...

Do you have a link for the Motofail you used? I can't find one confirmed for the latest TF300T update.
ETA: I ended up using this: http://www.droidrzr.com/index.php/t...roid-root-exploit-412/?pid=244281#entry244281
Worked perfectly on the latest Asus 4.2.1 build.

If you didn't root before the update then no, not without unlocking the bootloader.

Unlocking bootloader IS possible on JB?
Then I can root?
Are there any major benefits to rooting?
I know on my SGS2 i see reasons to root.....hot spot, etc...
But what about transformer?

Reasons for rooting are generally the same across devices. Now having a WiFi only device kind of negates the need for hotspot, but you get the idea.
Asus has provided the unlock tool for the bootloader, but I've not heard 100% confirmation of someone using it successfully with jb as the ROM and bootloader locked.

The Asus bootloader unlock tool works fine from the OTA JB.
Just picked up the tablet today and this is my second Android device. I currently have a samsung galaxy skyrocket and am a bit of a flashing ROM junky
I have no experience with a locked bootloader device though.
Is it better to root and add recovery in the stock ICS or is it ok to root and add recovery in JB

Dude, make a nandroid, and try R4INS 4.1.1 nuff said. Only SMALL drawback is flash, and it wont be around much longer...
This mofo has been at it for 2 weeks solid, with mucho user feedback...hell, I even donated $20 to him.
Now....back to this Tablet thing....
Does someone tried to use the same method as for Nexus 7, unlock oem and then install CWM recovery?
OK here are the situations I've found...
Rooting with ICS on this tablet is easy - use debugfs one click method.
Upgrading to jb after being rooted should be OK as long as you backup with something like ota root keeper. I did the upgrade and did keep root this way.
once on jb you cannot wipe data and keep root at this time. The update has altered the /data location severing app from root permission and I have yet to find a way to get it back.
rooting after a jb upgrade is not possible just yet.
Finally, all of these statements are based on a locked boot loader. If you want to unlock, you can pretty much do what you want.

Someone will crack this beast. Until then we wait.
I understand that it voids the warranty etc (although it seems asus are better than some at fixing hardware issues on unlocked devices, and my warranty is with amazon anyway...)
What i dont get is the deal with updates. Does unlocking only stop ota updates? or will it prevent me from updating by downloading from the asus site, and doing a manual install?
Thanks for any info, i finally have a sound TF700 (3rd time lucky on RMA) and want to start trying out some of the ROMs!
Do not attempt to in install from Asus website. It will brick your tablet. Check the prime forums. There should be numerous post on this when they first released the unlock tool. Since you don't have nvflash I would advised against being adventurous.

Only OTAs are affected after unlocking, but you can manually update using the firmware from Asus site. With the firmware from Asus site you can recover your device or update but you can't downgrade to a lower version.

This is absolutely untrue. Many of us that unlocked before the .26 update as well as some that have soft-bricked after flashing a CM10 pre-alpha were able to use the official updates and firmwares to get patched or back in working order.
^ This.
But I believe it re-flashed the recovery back to stock for some? (so better use those re-made zips with blobs posted here if on TWRP or other custom recovery or be prepared to do some re-flashing - just choose the most comfortable option)

I'm just going off of this in the dos and don't section of the prime. I guess it has worked for others.
DON'T
Once you unlocked the prime and installed CWM,*do NOT*try to install a super blob from ASUS (that is a blob file from one of the 'full' updates from their site)It seems that doing so*totally bricks your Prime*with no chance of recovery... (happened at least twice so far)

I believe some have flashed the official update using TWRP (don't have time to search for posts atm) and I know for a fact that you can manually do it by writing the blob to the staging partition with dd. Maybe CWM on the Prime has a bug with regard to official blobs?
Sent from my ASUS Transformer Pad TF700T using Xparent Blue Tapatalk 2
As far as I know only the OTAs are affected, but why would you unlock if you were only interested in ASUS' branded firmwares anyway? The whole idea of unlocking is to enable installing custom ROMs! I sincerely do not mean to be rude, but I am going to direct: if you would, in any way, shape or form, be inconvenienced/scared/depressed/frightened/saddened to lose the functionality of updating from ASUS' repository, well, news flash: don't unlock at all. ; )

I used the unlock app on JB and it supposedly worked. The message "your device is now unlocked" or something similar was displayed.
I still have some questions:
1) How can I be sure my device is unlocked?
2) Is all the fuss about the .30 upgrade concerns nvflash only and not unlocking in general?
3) Would I be able to use custom ROMs in the future? Is there specific tools I will need to achieve that?
P.S. I use GNU/Linux on the desktop. I have both the SDK and the NDK installed. I already use adb sometimes and I know my way around CLI environments. I'm just new to Android and all the vendor lock-ins.

The good news is YES!
I did it yesterday and now I am unlocked, rooted using the method posted by hiemashu (how to root JB), updated recovery to TWRP2.2.2.2 64bit version, flashed with ULE 1.1 ROM and since updated to the newest TWRP 2.2.2.3.
The only thing to make sure of is that you use a USB port connected directly to the Motherboard. I tried one via a multi-card reader and while I was able to fastboot reboot I could not flash until I changed port.
Go for it! You won't regret it! Anyway, it's not really yours 'til you void the warranty!!!

Eric

How about the USB port on the keyboard / mobile dock? Or are you suggesting we'd need an OTG adapter directly into the TF700T tablet itself?

I unlocked via official asus unlocking tool and now i want to root it but i dont know how to do it. I never rooted bcoz its my first android tablet so can anybody help me with basics of how to root my infinity running jellybean 4.1.1.
Is there a way to Unlock or Root the TF700 with the current JB firmware? My TF700 came stock with JB, and it seems like Asus took down the links to the ICS firmware on their support site.
As others have said in various threads, you can be on JB and unlock no problem. It says ICS only but Asus are just lazy and haven't updated their site. I unlocked on JB and everything is fine.

As far as I know, the only way to root it without unlocking the bootloader is if you have ICS and just use the debugfs command program, as far as rooting with JB I know you have to have the bootloader unlocked. In all honesty I don't mind taking the risk of unlocking my bootloader because I have Geek Squad Protection on my tablet and can just get a new one for free.

I'm wanting to take the plunge myself - but do you have to use the Asus unlocker tool or is there a way around that? I'm too late to get SquareTrade I think. Too late, and too poor LOL. I just have that nagging feeling that as soon as I do the thing will bork on me.
Edit: Sorry...I just read that you can't unlock without the ASUS tool, and it's a damn shame. I want so bad to rant right now but I won't.
I think I'm still going to unlock though.
The only way I could find to root was to install CWM recovery first, and then install the CWM SuperUser app. I replaced CWM with TWRP when all was said and done. Both are now touch interfaces making things so much less laborious. The links for doing so are all around the web and these forums. I had my frustrations but in the end it was easier than I thought it would be. I'm happy I took the plunge. I believe a lot of my frustrations were from ASUS' horrible implementation of Android. My benchmarks are now 6300+ on Quadrant with 2D GPU rendering on. I know benchmarks aren't everything but, you won't be sorry if you're giving up some kind of warranty to get the device you paid premium dollar for.
I am very close to unlocking my tablet and installing cromi. unfortunately i updated to jb before finding out that the jb bootloader blocks nvflash. My question is is there any brick protection other than nvflash? Also what kind of mistakes would i have to make in order to get a brick? Oh and one more question. Don't i need the most recent bootloader to install chromi anyway? Wouldn't that eliminate the possibility of using nvflash? sorry for all the newby questions but i want to make sure i fully understand this whole process before unlocking

I afraid nvflash is the only one. Most of people brick their device is due to their mistakes. Using an older version of custom recovery and try to wipe data is the main cause of 99.9% of bricking. Once you have the latest bootloader and the most recent or latest custom recovery (TWRP or CWM) you pretty much brick safe. I flashed over 10 times a week and I don't have nvflash. Don't be afraid go for it.

Yes, brick if use old recovery with JB bootloader. If you have the latest recovery and JB bootloader you can wipe what ever you want, should be fine. In the beginning just ask before you attempt to do anything, until you got the hang then you can be on your own.

It will only do so if your bootloader is unlocked and you are rooted. Otherwise you must fastboot the recovery. After fastbooting the recovery you should be good.

Haha as was I, but it is worth it in the end. If you read all the reviews of tf700's being bricked, it is not because they unlocked and installed a custom recovery, it is later when they try flashing newer roms that are not compatible with their bootloaders and their recoveries that cause the britck. If everything is kept up to date, which I wait a week or so to make sure no one encounters problems before updating a recovery, then you should have no problems.
