That's what I'm waiting for too...I'm unlocked, have twrp 2.4.3.0 ATM, rooted and such, and want to do the update, but only if I can get back at least what I have now

When twrp loaded, the first thing I saw was a text field to enter a password. I have pressed Cancel (i think that was the name of the button, i am not near my tablet right now) and then i saw the normal twrp options.

I wanted to install Superuser, option offered by twrp when you select Reboot. But instead of offering to install Superuser, when i selected to reboot, twrp told me i have no operating system installed.

Edit:

I have flashed the one from mediafire link above, and the first time it loaded i saw the same password message. I rebooted twrp and it havent asked for password anymore. I have flashed superuser.zip from clockworkmod and it WORKED.

The MD5 isn't matching.

I'm getting this on the blob: 581d55628ca089ed55e15ad4d4c56e17

Finally effing got root!
Used the openrecovery-twrp-2.4.4.0-tf300t-4.2.blob from above, rebooted device and booted back to recovery. Finally saw my files on internal storage. Mounted system and flashed the SuperSU from here, http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1538053. Rebooted and I'm good to go.

I'm running leanrom 3.4.4 now with twrp 2.2.2.0 . I want to update 4.2.1, and here steps i about to do:
1. flash the newest twrp 2.4.4.0.
2. Then download the 4.2.1 update from asus => extract this zip to get the zip inside it, put it into my asus tf300
3. then reboot into twrp and flash the extracted zip.
=> are these steps correct? Thank in advance

best advice? wait on the update!!! until they get a source for kernel.. to many bad things happening.. you can listen to the people who managed to get root with a non full working recovery flash.. but i would wait.. (if i could go back in time, id wait... lol)

i've been following this update drama since it started to roll out. Clearly, there are more than 3 people got their tab "bricked" ( maybe they can unbricked in future when kernel source come out) and you are the 1st one ). However , there are also 2-3 people got their tab updated successfully. As far as i understand:
*** People got their tab bricked: used older twrp version=> flash the update (OTA file or official file ) and it was a bad flash => couldn't boot => tried to boot into recovery to reflash/restore ...but the new update already change the partition layout, that cause twrp can't not work anymore=> no way to flash anything=> bricked
***People got their tab updated successfully : also used older twrp version=> flash the update (OTA file or official file ) and it was a good flash=> tab could boot up and run normally=> however, they can't flash twrp (any version older than 2.4.4.0) because none of them worked=> no custom recovery means no root

*************
today, with new twrp 2.4.4.0 coms out which is compatible with new 4.2.1 update, people can flash it and install supersu to get root.
==> so my point is, if i flash twrp 2.4.4 before i flash update , then if i have a bad flash, i still have a working custom recovery to flash my backup or reflash rom...

Here's a figure. I figure you should take this out of the Dev section.
