IMPORTANT : if you've just bought the device, and it is still under 4.2, DO NOT UPDATE with OTA. You would not be able to root the device (unless you buy an expensive cable)
STATUS
TWRP is fully working - selinux is available
On 4.2.2, Root is available via two methods : with cable improved here (great work guys) or without by using Towelroot
On 4.3, root is only achievable with the cable method : unlocking bootloader, booting recovery and flashing the supersu.zip
Recovery, root and unlock
Recovery (updated on 27/02/2015)
On bootloader, you can either :
1) boot it : fastboot -i 0x03F0 boot recovery.img (adapt to .img filename)
2) flash it : fastboot -i 0x03F0 flash recovery recovery.img (adapt to .img filename)
flashing it allows to have access to recovery directly, you need to keep pressing volume down when switching on the tab.
