Default UNIVERSAL New Root for all TRANSFORMER Units

Hello,

I have found this bug on the TF101 and I do have TF201 as well but its not a production model so i cant really test this 100%

If someone can test my root method. below i will paste.

This is a new root method.

This is a linux / OSX version only for now.

When you untar the file. Please make sure to edit the runme.sh it has a path for adb that you need to fix. Other then that it will work.

You just chmod 755 runme.sh and run it

Windows version of my exploit can be found at: http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1515470

im pretty positive it won't work, seems they made a lil mistake on the rights on your system folder after the backup utility been used bro <- it does work

but still, can't wait for someone to actual test it, would be funny if it however would work.

after all nice catch so far
Signature(string Device) {
...if(Device = ("Xperia Z") {
......if(Firmware = Stock) {
.........AndroidOS = 4.1.2;
.........Status = BL-unlocked+ROOT;
......}
...}
...if(Device = ("ASUS Transformer Prime") {
......AndroidOS = 4.0.4 AOKP;
......Status = BL-unlocked+ROOT;
...}
...return MySignature;
}

next_device() { return "unknown"; }

Thank you.

Want to know if it works on the TF201.

You need to run the backup util on an app installed (This util is found in the app draw)

then once the script runs. it will ask you to do the same backup again and it should reboot and you have root.

Forget all these tethered to computer root methods..lmfao we need a simple apk root install method. root from prime itself. This would be easiest to implement and more people could root.

Motorola Atrix-Rooted on froyo 2.2.2 (Retired)

IPAD- 32GB WiFi ver. 4.2.1

Transformer Prime 32GB(Retired)

NEXUS 7 16gb Unlocked & Rooted JB 4.2.2 Twrp. TEAM EOS4
