Same boat as you.
I tried Framaroot and Kingoroot and neither rooted it.
Also, Asus support will not give an unlock bootloader code.
Sure would love to be able to though, primarily because I want to change its TTL, however I cannot write to System.
Asus zenpad z8 root?
Would like to root my device as well. It runs great on the Google Fi data only sim...just saying..

I was wondering if anyone with this tablet has found a way to root it yet. I've tried SuperOneClick and One Click Root, both crashing. Any help rooting would be appreciated.

There is a really good forum happening at whirlpool.net.au/forum-replies.cfm?t=2106509&p=27 you will find anything you want I had my tablet rooted in about 15 mins
My question is in the title. So I have recently bought a manufacturer refurbished TF300T off eBay, everything is working like a charm except for that it cannot be unlocked using the official Unlock Device Tool (throws an error saying "Unknown error. This might be a network connection issue..."). I contacted ASUS customer support and their answer is that a refurbished product simply cannot be unlocked without any further explanation, which doesn't really make sense to me. Anyway, I've been searching on the Internet for other means to unlock my device but no luck at all. I would appreciate if anyone can help me solve this problem or at least give me an explanation as to why unlocking can't be done on a refurbished tablet. Many thanks in advance!
P.S. I am trying to install Ubuntu on my device that's why it needs to be unlocked.
Suggest you read more before you brick it. Unlocking the bootloader and rooting are two separate things. Kingo roots it easily. You'll be staying locked if unlock tool does not work for you.

thank you for your reply. I thought rooting and unlocking were the same thing.
Hi 2easy4sam,
Were you able to unlock your transformer?
I also have a refurb tf300t, and the official unlock tool doesn't work on it.. Can't use the tablet with stock ROM anymore!

Go to Asus Suport with screenshots of the error, a speedtest, build number and mac adress. Tell them to update their database with correct informations. Then you'll be able to unlock your tablet with this tool.
If they tell you can't try it one more time and don't let them before your tablet is unlocked. Don't listen to the guys who said it isn't supported anymore.
I've been talking with a woman from asus support, she was cool and did what she had to do. The first time it didn't work, they probably didn't upgraded as they had to... I insisted and she retried it. Now my TF300T is unlocked and everything works well.
If you are cool with them and you insist, it will be ok.
PS: Sorry for my bad english

I think this should be helpful. Please remember to confirm your model number and ensure it matches the on listed in this thread
You may be able to acchieve root simply by downloading and installing the towelroot app though. I'd try that first.
Also remember that your s5 has a locked bootloader so you cannot flash a custom recovery. Before doing anything I suggest reading about "safestrap" and how it works
Good luck
Hi guys,
I just got a Zenpad z380m and want to root. I have been searching all afternoon and haven't been able to find a root tool for z380m with 6.0.
Has anyone with Z380M confirmed root? or does anyone know any tool that could achieve root on this device?
Really appreciate the help as I don't really like the default system.

Greetings and welcome to assist. I can not find any confirmed method of root for your device but you could try kingroot or framroot. If those don't work you could try this method
