Hey guys,
I sent my device to Asus a couple of days ago for repairs.
Asus did a great job on repairing my screen, but... um..
they have undone my root access and they've also relocked my bootloader, I think, although I can't get any OTAs.
Original question was:
Then I found the answer thanks to these amazing guys answering and trying to help.
It's a strange method, but it woudn't work otherwise:
I had to unlock the device (still on that very first stock JB rom).
Then, I flashed CWM through fastboot. Have a look here. However, do not forget: in this thread the OP referenced to an unofficial CWM. Go to the TF700 Android Development page and download the official CWM in stead.
After that I flashed a CWM-suitable SuperSU.zip (flashable) which made me have whereas it was impossible with any other method! (works through TWRP as well, for those that only have the unable to root problem )
Then, I flashed TWRP (but that's just a question of preferences, I guess) => This is no obligatory step of course!
There you go, for anyone who has/will have the same issues as me: follow these steps and let me know if it worked for you!
Have fun flashing Custom Roms/Kernels and/or recoveries again!
It might seem complicated, but it really isn't.
Good uck to those who follow(ed) my path

Original question was:
What can I do to get my root again, because the scripts of sparky's tool don't seem to work anymore...
Sorry for this noobish question, but I swear that this has never happened to me before (and I have unlocked and rooted numerous devices)
What kind of sorcery is going on?!
