You are happy... I have TF300 with C4OKCT serial and couldn`t unlock... No way...
Did you not get the update and everything? I was the one that created the kerfuffle about the C4OKCT SNs and I've had no issues however I haven't tried to unlock

/e: I can confirm it works - kinda weird you have to scroll down to be able to accept the terms, cause Apple etc. don't do it like this...

Just verified ICS bootloader unlocker apk for tf300T is working for JB.

Just verify the same result. haha
this is my root procedure:

Just verified ICS bootloader unlocker apk for tf300T is working for JB.
Prepared:
TWRP Recovery | Filename: tf300t-jb.blob
go to asus tf300 download page, download unlooker apk.

1.OTA Upgrade TF300 to Jelly Bean.
2. fastboot flush TWRP, fastboot -i 0x0B05 flash recovery tf300t-jb.blob then fastboot -i 0x0B05 reboot, you will see the device unlock on the left top corner.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
If you can not flash recovery fail and show:
fail (remote:validstate)), , that mean the bootloader should be locked.
reboot the system and install and run asus tf300 bootloader unlocker...
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
3. reboot system, copy Superuser-3.2-RC3-arm-signed.zip to internal storage.
4. hold power+vol down, 5 second, then press vol up enter TWRP,
5. flush Superuser-3.2-RC3-arm-signed.zip,
6. reboot system and download SuperSU from google player market.

the system should be root.

:p

ASUS support site says:



I just crossed my fingers and went for it. Rebooted again after unlock just to be sure. "This device is unlocked."

:good::D

If you're on JB (OTA), it's a bit easier ;)
Just unlock Bootloader, Flash Kernel via Fastboot and then Flash Firmware via CWM

This thread needs to be stickied. I just purchased this tf300 and flashed to jelly bean right out of the box. It took me forever to find instructions to root it after doing so. Searches always turn up people wanting to flash jb after already being rooted.

Do you mean unlock bootloader, flash recovery via fastboot and then flash the root firmware (superuser zip)? Just want to check before I do it myself!

That is correct. Recommend twrp for recovery, seems to work better than cwm touch.
