[Q] Tablet has four icons on bootloader screen? Help

[314kerma]

This tablet was bought from a online warehouse as a returned item. Just for kicks I powered up using the power and - volume. There is Four icons "RCK, Android, USB, and Wipe Data. I have up graded to the JB OTA and I know it had been reset before I got it. Now if I am right has someone tried to root this tablet? I base that on the RCK icon which when selected just shows the android on his face with a red exclamation.
There is no text showing that the boot loader has been unlocked. So where do I go from here to unlock and root ?

That's the normal ASUS JB bootloader, if there isn't any text when turning the tablet on saying: "Device unlocked" it isn't. So if you want to unlock download the unlocking tool apk from ASUS website, install and run on your tablet. After unlocking just check the development section of the forums and get informed on how to install recovery (CWM or TWRP), root and custom ROMs.

Thanks for the quick reply. I would of been surprised if it had of been rooted and Amazon.com's techs hadn't of caught it when it was returned.
Going to hold off rooting it until the warrantee is gone. Still having nightmares about my Viewsonic gTablet turning into a cyborg tablet thingy and attacking me. All because I just had to try every ROM I could cram down it.

Although unlikely, it could still be rooted if it was done prior to the jb update, and it could still be locked even if rooted. Download root checker from the market and you can safely test this.
