It was a C3 unit from GameStop running x.x.x.15 out of the box. Figured I'd hold off on updates until I checked out the current firmware/rooting situation. Updated to the latest .21 now and tried out OTA Root Keeper, which also worked perfectly.
/sigh
Yeah, I got mine like 3 days ago (also a C3 from GameStop), but in my excitement, let it update w/o rooting first... and AFAIK, it's yet to be rootable whilst on .21 ; ;
Ya, from what I've read there is no known exploit for .21 at the moment. There's always the Asus unlock, but I didn't want to throw away my warranty yet either.
The problem is that every one who could have found an exploit is already unlocked.
sparkym3 said:I wouldn't say everyone, and one can still find exploits if one is unlocked since one still has access to the code and OS updates.
I am not unlocked, since I am still waiting to RMA mine for a screen defect and though that should not be affected by unlocking (since it is a hardware defect) I don't plan on taking that chance, and I am currently looking for a new exploit (I released the first root method for the TP201 on ICS). But, I am not finding too much time to work on it around spending time with my family.

Hi,
I have the Asus Transformer prime tf201 with version 9.4.2.21, how do root I?
Please help me

Unlock bootloader using official unlock tool from Asus. Then use adp to push clockmode recovery. After that you can install rooted ROM. This is only way to do it right now for .21
I receive "Parse error" and it display "There is a problem parsing the package".

im getting this tablet tomorrow and would like to root it, there are so many threads regarding this process, can someone summarize: dos and donts? also can the tablet be unrooted after?
Thank you
