[HOW-TO] Return to stock rooted ICS US 9.2.1.21 from custom rom (One Stop Shop)

---

I decided to return to stock today so i could check out the newest ota which was not implemented in my fav rom yet. I soon realized its a pain in the ass to get there. Flash rom, update, update, etc, etc. And even worse is tracking down all the threads required for it.

Though I've narrowed it down to three or four, I thought i'd make a thread to put it all in one spot.

First off thanks to the members/devs that make these updates and roms for us. I dev on the HTC eVO 4g and know how time consuming and tedious it can be.

I am renaming and reuploading all the files required to ensure links stay current and are easy to follow. I will however be linking to all original threads where i got the files as well as giving props to the members who provided them.

I have a US version TF101 and will only be testing on that device. I dont know what works on tf101G, WW, TW models etc

I will update this thread as new rooted ota's come out.

THIS WILL NOT ROOT YOUR DEVICE, UN-ROOT YOUR DEVICE OR CHANGE YOUR CURRENT RECOVERY.

DONT FORGET TO BACK UP ALL YOURS APPS/DATA

FAQ

-Will this root my transformer = no
-Will I lose root if i flash this = NO
-Can i flash this on top of a custom rom = NO
-Will this replace the custom recovery with the stock recovery? = NO, this will not touch your current recovery
-OMG, I lost root after this = NO you didnt or you did something wrong.

Can you explain why step 2 and 3 are needed?

You couldn't go from 1 to 4 if you want 9.2.1.21?

its my understanding that you have to have the last prior ota installed to be able to install the next. The last update may not include everything from the others.

Will this replace the custom recovery with the stock recovery?

I knew i'd forget one of the typicals in the FAQ..

Answer is no, this will not change/touch your current recovery

I wanted to return to stock Rom too, but I have seen your topic too late....
I first saved my root with rootsavekeeper
I have wiped cache and dalvik, and then install the rom
Now, I have a bootloop with the Asus logo, and if I try boot in recovery, I have the red robot

If u have a solution, I take it

Sorry for my english

What ROM did you flash? If you flashed the official ROM from Asus you unrooted the TF.
Looks like you have stock recovery now.

Yes I have
My biggest problem is to get out on this sh*t Now
