[Q] [TF700] Root not working after updating Cromi-X to 4.7.0 - Asus Transformer TF700

Hello there ! Newbie here.
I've just updated my Asus TF700T to Cromi-X 4.7.0.
After the installation, I noticed that it was not rooted anymore. When opening SuperSU, an error message appears: "There is no SU binary installed and SuperSu cannot install it, it's a problem."
I tried afterwards a fresh install of Cromi-X, but the problem was still there.
Then I tried to execute the Motochopper script, which appeared as successful, but the error message is still there.
Do you know what could be the solution for this problem ? Without root, I cannot execute applications like lagfix, titanium backup and full screen, which is annoying.
Thanks in advance for your help !
And sorry for my english (french talking here !)

Sounds like the ROM didn't flash properly. Flash it again please.

I did, several times...
First I tried with and without the TWRP root option (after the Cromi-X install, TWRP proposes to root the tablet). Both of these two options didn't work.
Then I tried with full wipe, even the microsd (just let the Cromi-X installation archive on it). At this point, the tablet offered me the possibility of updating the supersu. I did update it, but when opening super su, the same error message appears.
I don't know what other test I can do. Any ideas ?
Thanks for your answer.

The only time I have ever seen this is when the ROM doesn't complete its flash in twrp. So it gets partially flashed.
When you flash you get the chance to save a log. It gets saved to the same folder as the zip file you flashed. Can you post it please.
Also make sure you turn on signature verification in twrp before flashing. My files are signed and this will stop it flashing a corrupted download.

Hello, I can't find any log file in the folder of my zip file... What would be the name of this log file ? Maybe I can find it somewhere else...
I have re-downloaded the rom from another source and try a new flash tonight.
Anyway thanks for your help ! (I just noticed I was talking to THE developer of Cromi-X Sir, it's an honor )

It's working now !
I flashed the rom downloaded from another mirror, and activated the zip signature verification, and it works now
Many thanks for your help, and your fabulous work on this rom.
See you soon on this forum !

You are welcome - glad you got it sorted

Hey there guys and gals. Newbie here. I've read this thread and I am having the same issue as the original poster. I don't really understand what was said here but this is my question: if I downloaded the motochopper root app to the tablet and opened it from there and did the root right from my tablet would the root take hold then? I have an Asus TF700 by the way.

Motochopper is an exe you use on your PC. You cannot install it on the tablet. And it worked only up to firmware version 10.6.1.14.8.

[Q]rooting problem

Hello,
I have tried to root my sensation device, I used a guide to do that(forum didn't allow me to link cause I'm a new user), and everything looks fine, my phone says s-off and everything looks alright, however I tried to use titanuim backup, said it requires busybox, installed busybox, says "the su binary was not found on your phone", installed superuser, and tried to update the su binary, and it fails at "checking current install path" and I hit a wall. where have I gone wrong?
also I accidentally hit the SIM lock option on bootloader screen, I don't know what that does, so is this bad? and if so how I fix it.
If you have guessed that I'm a noob, you're right, I just got my first android phone a month ago.
come on people, give me something

Yes that page . An older version of recovery is attched on that page. It can be downloaded here.
Now,
1. Copy the PG58IMG file into the Root folder of your SD card (The main Folder of your Memory Card)
2. Turn off your phone FUlly and reboot into the Bootloader/HBOOT screen
3. Press Volume up to Accept when it asks" Do you want to start the update"
4. Press Power Off
5. Delete PG58IMG from your memory card
6. Reboot
Alternatively ,
If you have fastboot and adb setup on your pc then download the recovery from here.
Then flash it by the following command in fastboot
"fastboot flash recovery your-recovery-file.img"
After flashing recovery download the flashable su binary from here.
Put it the root of your sdcard.
Flash it via recovery.
Now you are root.
Note: **** If you get installation aborted while flashing su binary , do toggle signature 3 or 4 times . Then try again ****
oh thank you very much, you've been a great help, I'm now rooted, now onto trying to install a new ROM, god help me
try using the guide on the cyanogenmod website! It's the one i used and the one that seemed the most helpful
I've searched there for a while but couldn't find one, could you provide a link if its not too much trouble?

[Q] Please Help

I've got myself (and my tablet) into a complete mess.
When I got my tablet it was already unlocked and running ICS (I think).
I decided it was time to upgrade to cyanogenmod Kit Kat.
I started with this tutorial: http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Install_CM_for_tf700t
I flashed the custom recovery : "recovery-jb-644"
I chose "cm-10.2.0-tf700t" as I was nervous about the nightly. Something went wrong.
The tablet started but crashed after a few minutes and rebooted. I added "gapps-jb-20130813-signed" - it was worse - now the keyboard also crashed.
After that, I tried numerous things to recover it.
Now, I cant access it through the fastboot - it gives the serial number but won't push anything or flash anything.
I put the following on an sd card and tried to install from there but I get:
status 7 assert failed: write_raw_image (" /tmp/blob" , "staging )
or any number of similar messages. I tried the solution here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1235724 which worked once but not again.
My current situation:
The picture attached shows the current installation - it will boot - I have no Google Apps - and it crashes within a minute and then reboots.
I'm not a complete newbie, but I cant find a simple explanation of what to do next.
I just want the tablet to work again, I don't care anymore if its Kit Kat, ICS, Jelly Bean or Honeycomb.... I even considered Linux...
Please help.
Apparently you missed the big fat red warning on the tutorial you linked. You need to install a 10.6.1.14.x bootloader.
(And you need to make sure your recovery is compatible with that bootloader, otherwise you risk a hard brick when you wipe data).

OK, so I've downloaded it, but I still can't install it because of the

According to the page you linked, you are supposed to download a blob file and flash it via fastboot:
http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Install_CM_for_tf700t#Update_Bootloader_To_Compatible_Version
You didn't say yet in which way fastboot didn't work for you.
Hi,
Thank you for replying.
I can't do "fastboot -i 0x0B05 flash staging XX_bootloaderblob"
When I am in the CMD window, I can do fastboot devices and it see's my serial number, but as soon as I want to actually do something, it tells me the device is not available.
The same goes for any adb commands I want to do.
The only way I found of doing it is through the sideload, but now even this doesnt work.
Hi Again,
Your comment gave me an idea - I did the bootloader fastboot through the sideloader - and it worked!!!
I then added the "gapps-jb-20130813-signed" and now it is crashing on the setup wizard.... and the keyboard crashes.
Any ideas?

I really have no idea... I just checked - you did flash the gapps package for CM 10.2 and I assume you also checked the box "verify zip signature" in your recovery before you flashed gapps?
If not, it maybe as simple as a bad download....

About Root in 05Q

Hello guys!!!, Today I get the new OTA with the firmware 05Q and I install it. I see in the forum a version of 05Q rooted LINK HERE
I only want to ask if anyone know another way of get root actually or if I should wait until our amazing toolkits for 1+1 get updated.
Thanks i nadvance!!! :cyclops:
You can gain root following, This thread. If you already have a custom recovery install, might be easier to install the pre-rooted 05QA. I went the second route.
P.S. That toolkit will root 05QA, just does not have the new firmware to go back to stock.
I have a custom recovery installed ofc, if I install the pre-rooted 05Q I lost all my data and apps? Should I do a factory reset? Thanks for your fast answer mate!!

If you have custom recovery installed. Do a back up first. You should not have to wipe or lose anything.

Wait guys, all you need to do is flash SuperSU from your custom recovery. That's it, nothing more.

You said that flashing entire ROM would be easier, it isn't. All that's need to get root is to flash the SuperSU zip. He's already on 05Q so flashing the ROM zip is completely and utterly pointless. It's like telling someone who's run out of petrol to install a entirely new petrol tank that's full of petrol (when all that's actually needed is the fuel).
It doesn't matter what someone thinks might be the solution, if you're going to answer in the q&a section you need to give the best and easiest solution.
The thing is flashing update-supersu is not working... for me at least. I updated OTA.. After installation finished, rebooted to TWRP and tried to install update-supersuv2.37.zip...
It doesn't show any error, but when I reboot my phone there is no supersu installed ( actually there is one but it's greyed out with android icon and not showing up on application list )

Sorry guys for don´t answer your comments, I have been working out of my country for a couple of weeks.
I get root on 05Q with just flashing SuperSU 2.46 from recovery. Easy and fast, just that.

So now what can I upgrade my Stock ROM to?

Hello, I'm a noob at this so please be kind. I followed the below:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/tra...inners-guide-unlock-custom-rom-tf300-t3061648
I successfully:
Unlocked my TF300T's Bootloader
Installed custom recovery using fastboot
Rooted my tablet
Debloated the Tablet (Titanium Backup)
Backup up my current (OEM) SYSTEM ROM to microSD
So now I'm onto attempting a custom ROM. I'm a bit bored with 4.2.1 and would like to go to the same version of ROM my Note 7 has which is 6.0.1 Marshmallow or even try the new 7.0 Nougat.
I'm a little confused as to what ROM will or will not work. I see a few ROMS worth trying, but there install instructions reference a different Bootloader multiple flashes such as SuperSU or gapps.
Whats the best fool proof method to flash a new ROM with what I have and are there any simple one file ROM/ZIP/ Blob etc.. file that would do what I want?
Thank you.

Please take care very exactly on the installation instruction in post #1 given by Timduru. And don't forget that you need Kang TWRP [email protected] Download here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/transformer-tf300t/development/recovery-twrp-t3046479. That's mandatory!

Thanks. As simple as the process was, as a noob (first time attempting this) I was really concerned about screwing this up and bricking my tablet.
The one you linked to was one of the ones I was considering and hence my question regarding what works with what I have already done. The noob mind (mine anyways) finds a dozen questions at every turn. In this case I would ask the following:
Q-Do I have to use Kang TWRP?
Q-How is it different than the TWRP I used on my Tablet?
Q-Will I need to constantly change TWRP versions depending on what ROM I want to use?
Q-Is there a danger to switching TWRPs?
Q-Doesn't flashing SuperSU after I flash Gapps overright and erase SuperSU or is there some unique way to flash (push?) both at the same time?
Q-Many more I'm sure!
To the noob, almost all the instructions I read appear to be written for someone who as done this many times. The level of detail needed for the novice is just not there or lost between the jargon used, with many steps not fleshed out because the author assumes a certain level of expertise.
I will definitely read these threads as best I can, but in the interim, is there any ROM that are known to be able to be flashed via the TWRP I currently have? The author of the version I used certainly made it seem like it was that simple, load the ROM/ zip file onto the MicroSD card and when in Custom recovery simply use the INSTALL feature to navigate to the file and press a button to flash and ..."BAM!!" you are running a new ROM.

That version of KANG appears to be dead, as the thread has been closed and abondoned by the OP. So no new questions or help there....

Yes you can.
However Kang TWRP is a xxx.img file. You also can use your current TWRP and flash the image file. Attached you will find an image and a zip version.

Ok, so if I read your comment correctly, I can copy the .img file to an SD card, boot into recovery and flash it from there OR I can fire up fastboot and the same steps I originally did to install custom recovery from my PC to accomplish the same thing... either way I should still have custom recovery, but with the KANG version. Right?
THANKS TO BOTH OF YOU FOR RESPONDING TO MY PREVIOUS POST. I appreciate the support.
Oh no....
Well crap. I put the .img file on my SD card and boot the tablet into recovery, I flashed the .img file to the rovery not boot partition. All appeared well....but when I go back to see if I have KANG recovery, it hangs anbd says Booting Failure Unrecoverable bootloader error (0x000000000)
EDIT: After I cleaned my pants, I used abd and fastboot to flash the original Blob file using my PC. This restored the custom recovery. I was freaking out for a few minutes.
I didn't change the file name of the kang .img file. Should I have done something different?
EDIT: Successful recovery to Kang2.8.7.2 !! :good::good: I used adb and my PC to send the .img file (renamed "twrpkang.img" for simplicity) and it worked great. I'm a pro..:silly:

Not sure what I did wrong. I tried to do it within the old recovery menu and it hosed it. It found the file and mounted it successfully, but it seemed weird to be within the partition I was overwriting and writing to it. Kind of like you cant install windows while your using Windows...
The new version is much smoother.... Thanks, not to learn about this gapps super SU and how to flash all of these and in what order along with the ROM..as well as this wipe vs format thing...so confusing...

but the ota only patches system, boot and radio, so if someone is couraged to port, it may be not that hard.
for z017 ota links, mention me everytime a new one appears and i'll give the link for it.
if someone unlocked a z012 with unofficial method, contact me so I help you get the link to post here and help the community.

hit the update button, It'll give you the update notification, then open the folder /data/data/com.asus.dm/files/
If you don't want to continue from here, just pass me the tree.xml
If you want, open it on an editor like notepad++
then look into the <value> that has a link inside.
example: <value>http://fota.asus.com/delta_package/phone/WW_Phone/formal/14.2015.1701.8-user-WW_Phone-14.2015.1701.13-user-WW_Phone-QWWSSS/WW_ZE520KL-14.2015.1701.8-14.2015.1701.13-fota-user.zip.dd_20170317_151859.dd</value>
copy ONLY the link, put into the browser and It'll download you an dd file
ex: http://fota.asus.com/delta_package/...5.1701.13-fota-user.zip.dd_20170317_151859.dd
open this dd file on notepad ++
the <objectURI> is the link for the ota

Is the flashfire app effective? I tried it and updated to the latest ze520kl update. Everything went smoothly, but, I am not sure why but my wifi was disabled. I tried clearing cache and did not work. Not sure if the app did not work correctly or if it was an issue with the latest update. That said i downgraded using the same tool and got everything working again.
I think there is an issue with the new update. What do you guys think? Did any of you guys also had an issue with the new update?

This is what I do follow while applying Delta OTA.
No need to flash back stock boot/recoveries and no need as well to reinstall twrp back.
Steps using FlashFire, Flash as zip/ota option:
1. Load 'UL-ASUS_Z017D_1-WW-14.2015.1701.8-user'
2. Load 'WW_ZE520KL-14.2015.1701.8-14.2015.1701.13-fota-user'
3. Load 'WW_ZE520KL-14.2015.1701.13-14.2020.1703.28-fota-user'
4. Remove tickmark from 'Inject SuperSU'
5. Add SuperSU zip, Which I've modded according to asus ramdisk of ours. Which is attached in here under my post.
Flash!
Note: FlashFire will take a minute or two to load flash, have patience.
* Reason I've to edit standard SuperSU package was for 'init.asus.rc' file in our ramdisk, which unset PATH during 'on init' event. So i added those params back in supersu's zip to append '/su/bin' in PATH

Hello,
Sorry for that I got it now why it's happened.
Follow an extra step.
Extract ".28" firmware replace META-INF folder with attached below.
Zip the '.28' firmware back and rename it as 28_dummy.zip
Now follow above flashfire load 1-4 steps and as a 5th step add '28_dummy.zip' and as a 6th step as above supersu step and it'd definately work.
