[Q] MEMO PAD 7 ME170C Demo App Offline issue

[jeonosis]

uPlease help,
I just tried to root my Asus memo pad 7 (Not HD) but it installed or activated a Demo Mode so a pop up message appears every time I block the tablet, and unistalls everything, everytime I reboot the tablet. I tried to wipe data but unsuccessful.
I got frustrated trying to find a solution.

Hey there. This is a common issue and it was already addressed, but I will try to answer anyway:
Once you activated the Demo mode, you'll have to get out of it by pressing the back button for more than 10 seconds. It will ask a password and you should enter 741603. After this, the device will reset itself to factory settings and you will loose everything. You cannot avoid this factory reset once you've activated the Demo mode.

To root the device, get the RootZenFone v1.4.6.4r from here. Install the app and follow the instructions exactly like they are written:
1. Forget the WiFi network you're connected on and shut down WiFi.
2. Open the app.
3. Read all the stuff. Twice.
4. Press the Root me (or whatever) button. The Demo mode will activate, but don't panic, it is normal. If you proceed with caution and don't do any stupid thing, it will work.
5. Wait 10 seconds (count to 10 using "one thousand" or "mississippi").
6. Reboot the device (long press the power button and select reboot).

Good luck!
