This may be the first completely automated tool for getting root on any ICS Asus Transformer - TF101 / TF101G / TF201 / TF300X / SL101 for all ICS firmware including the latest TF101(G) 9.2.2.6 / 9.2.2.4 and 9.2.1.27 / 9.2.1.25 / 9.2.1.21, TF201 9.4.2.28, TF300T 9.4.3.30 and TF300TG 9.4.4.40.
You can use it on any SBKv1 / SBKv2 / SBKv3 tablet including B70 / B80 / B90 as it is not NVFlash based.
Your data stays intact and OTA functionality is not lost. No more need to downgrade to get root.
You can also use it for flashing CWM recovery or returning to Asus stock recovery ( to re-enable OTA ). (TF101(G),SL101 only)
UPDATE 16-June-2012 - Version 1.1 out. All tablets supported, all ICS. TF101(G),TF201,TF300T(G),SL101!
v1.1 Uses a new exploit method and is much quicker and simpler. For the TF201/300X, only root/unroot options exist, no recovery installation. Everything works for the TF101(G),SL101.
UPDATE 15-June-2012 - Version 1.0 out for TF101(G)/SL101 only. Added unroot option.
- Before running this tool please kill Asus sync or any other tool that may be starting any competing ADB instances.

1. If you're on a standard tablet and just need root (TF101(G),TF201,TF300T(G),SL101)
You will be presented with the menu only if you have root, else root in one step!
You can run it multiple times to retry if it fails for any reason. It cleans up after itself.
You'll need:
- At least 50% battery
- USB debugging enabled on your device
- To run this tool on any Windows PC with a working direct internet connection (Proxy users see post #2)
- Please allow any driver installation (DPINST) dialogs to succeed. If automated ADB driver installation doesn't work, you can manually install them from the adb-drivers directory
If the tablet is not being detected by the tool, please try any or all of the following:
- Disable and re-enable USB debugging on the tablet with the cable connected and the tool waiting
- Disconnect and reconnect the cable to the same or different USB port while the tool is waiting
- Reboot the PC and run the tool again
- Wait upto 5 mins while the tool is waiting before pressing Control-C to stop execution and running the tool again.
- Wolf for the core exploit. This tool uses some new variations too.
- rayman84 and Bumble-bee for the excellent Blob Tools
- Transformer reboot to Recovery zephyr team - for the source code to show how to boot into recovery programmatically

Following are some stock Asus files, rest are in the second post. (TF101(G),SL101 only)
There's no need to manually download your firmware specific file from here. The tool should do it automatically.
There's no more any need to manually download your firmware specific file from here. The tool should do it automatically.
- These are the stock recovery files needed for switching recoveries between CWM and stock.
- If you're behind a proxy, then don't double click the tool, open a DOS command prompt and cd to the '1-Click Transformer Root' directory and type:
Code:
SET http_proxy=http://your_proxy:proxy_port
"1-Click Transformer Root.bat"
to run the program.
- If you don't have internet, then fret not, you can manually download the Asus stock recovery from the second post and extract it in the 'Source' folder. Even if you don't do this, you will still have root.
THESE FILES ARE NOT NEEDED FOR GETTING ROOT, ONLY TO SWITCH BETWEEN CWM AND STOCK RECOVERY
SWITCHING RECOVERIES FEATURE ONLY WORKS ON THE TF101/TF101G/SL101
Neat tool, but you should print some errors on screen if the checks fail. Otherwise it just looks like it's frozen at the step. The checks are a bit overwritten, but good job!
Unrooted to test and seems to work, but it failed the busybox check and ADB check a couple times and froze, you may want to simplify the .bat a bit.
