Default Back up for replacement tablet?

I'm having to return a dodgy unit, but after having this for several days I'd like to back up with titanium or something.does anyone know the warranty issues with rooting to use it, and is there a way to unroot after? Or any app that can backup as easily without root? Thanks

Rooting is easy, and reversible. It's the bootloader unlocking you shouldn't be doing. Check out debugfs' root in the transformer prime section. It works for the infinity too.

I got b& at /g/ for sh!tposting ;_;

Rooting can be reversed, but the bootloader unlocking cannot.

so as far as i can tell from searching, i can root using Debugfs tool right? but i cant find a way to unroot the infinity, all methods seem to be very specific to certain firmware builds of the prime. is there a way to do it yet? thanks
