Has any one been able to root Jellybean yet, or downgrade back to Ice Cream Sandwich for the transformer prime tf300. Ive tried the firmware update to the .17 for ics and its still locked to Jellybean. The only other thing i could think of is to use the kernals, but i found no way to install them. Should i even try unlocking the bootloader?
So far, it looks hopeless to try and downgrade to ICS. The source code has been released so we may have root in the not-to-distant future once the developers have a look at it.

If you can downgrade to ICS you could potentially get root back using the debugfs method. Then you can upgrade again and rescue your root with voodoo ota root keeper, but I had to wipe data after the jb upgrade, and that broke root for good, for now.

Rooting is very simple in JellyBean assuming you have your boot unlocked

So if I got the 4.1 update, I cant unlock bootloader, and cant get root?

You should be able to. Despite the message, many others are reporting success.

Yes, you can root JB.
I just bought my Tab, upgraded to JB right away then performed below steps:
1) Used the ASUS unlocker to unlock the device, make sure you have internet connection otherwise it will not work.
2) Follow 3rd part in below thread to root JB:

Question, is that all you did? I'm considering doing the same but I don't want custom Roms and such. I just want my root back.

I think the big question is if its possible to keep the BL locked though. I know I tried via the OTA keeper, and no success. Tried updating binaries, superSU, regular SU... no dice so far...

For locked u can only root ics and keep it using voodoo rootkeeper and than update. Thats how i did it.
Im not sure but u could downgrade using this method. It flash whole system again and clear all ~30gb of memory so it should work.

Just a heads up, if ota rootkeeprr couldn't restore root... reboot your tab. I did and all of a sudden I had proper root access

How do I completely revert back to stock? I have tf300t on JB now.
Sent from my ASUS Transformer Pad TF300T using xda app-developers app
not sure waht your after mate to get back to stock just download the firmware from asus extract it once and put on the root of your tablet, then boot into recovery and wipe it the flash the stock firmware.
What's the method to get to recovery? I haven't installed cw yet but it should have stock recovery, right?

Yep it will have stock recovery mate, but for custom recovery you need to unlock your bootloader mate

I have the bootloader unlocked rooted and have hydro ICS. If I want to move to JB and I just flash a JB rom? Or do I need to change to a different recovery? I understand that I can't go back to ics unless I do the nvflash back up. Also what JB rom has flash working?
Thank you

This right here will return your TF300T to stock settings, just download the TF300T version instead. NOT THE TF300TG VERSION!
Your bootloader will stay unlocked because you can NOT re-lock it. This will uninstall root and return you to stock settings.
