[Q]Unlock bootloader on 4.1.1?

Hey guys my brother just got this tablet a few days ago and he's getting pretty frustrated with the stock software provided by Asus. I'm going to install CleanROM or CM10 on his tablet, still haven't decided. Anyways everywhere I've read says the bootloader unlock tool provided by Asus is meant for Android 4.0 only. I've heard conflicting reports of it working for some users on JB and not for others.
Does anyone know of a way to unlock the bootloader successfully on 4.1.1? I'm a pretty advanced user and can figure out everything else no problem, I just don't want to risk damaging his tablet.
Thanks.

Go to the Asus website and download the unlock apk in the utilities section.

I can confirm the boot loader unlocking tool works on the jb update.
I think Saenz is the only Rom available with the new jb boot loader.

How did you run it? I downloaded the apk ran it and got an error. I'm on 4.1.1 (the latest that was released)... is there a way to unlock the bootloader on 4.1.1 latest?

... except when it doesn't.
Take a look at some of the recent posts on the topic and you'll see that some people have had a hard time getting it to unlock. The device dials home during the unlock process and places the serial number into a database. If that process terminates abnormally then you don't get to unlock.

I have seen the posts as well.
I understood the question to be whether JB could be unlocked or just ICS.

i got a refurbed tf300 and the unlock app worked once i registered my device on asus website.

uk bought xoom - need help

hi guys,
i just bought a xoom in the uk as an impulse buy. usually i do a lot of reading on things like this so i dont usually need help when it comes to rooting, unlocking bootloader etc.
This has probably been asked but i tried searching and i just got more confused. I would like to know if the uk xoom (wifi only) can be rooted and if i can unlock the bootloader. i would like to install a jellybean rom if that is possible but i couldnt really find i guide on this particular version.
If anyone can help i would greatly appreciate it.
Thank you

Yes and Yes is the simple answer......
Best thing is to have a search on here and maybe Google and you should find some guides on how to do it.... The guide I followed (but don't remember where I found it) wasn't specifically written for a UK Xoom, but worked absolutely fine.....
The UK Xoom can be easily unlocked via ADB when connected to your PC.....
Unlocking the Bootloader will completely wipe the device though so ensure you have copied anything you want from the Xoom first....
Plenty of ROM choices - I am currently using EOS 3 (Nightly 155) which is Jellybean 4.1.2 but will jump over to EOS 4 on Jellybean 4.2 in due course....

[Q] Root to Transformer Prime (TF201) JB stock?

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

[Q] Debrand Asus Transformer TF700KL - Vodafone

I would like to debrand my Asus Transformer TF700KL (the one with 4G/LTE), I've got root access and did a search with Root Explorer and it came up with a lot of entrys containing Vodafone. (And here I would like to attach a screenshot, but seems the only option is to upload it somewhere and provide a link, maybe I'll try it later).
I'ts not sim-locked, I'm using my own ISP's mobile network, but I want to get rid of all the Vodafone stuff, like splash screen, lots of apps and background services.
I guess I can't just delete what Root Explorer found, is there another way? New stock ROM? From where? Can't find a CM (only for TF700T), can't unlock the tab (it's running JB 4.1, the unlocker provided by Asus works only on 4.2)...
Any solutions would be appreciated, surely not only by me...

TF300TG - new ROM?

Hi guys!
I have 2 x TF300TG tablets with original ASUS Android 4.1.1 installed. As far as I know they are unlocked (3G) and can take any operator (I've only used one operator since I bought them though).
Is there a newer ROM available which meets the following requirements:
Stable
3G works
Transformer docking option works
If so, which is the recommended ROM to go for and what do I need to make it happen?
Thanks!

There are no roms for the 3G model at all, never were
