Rooting not so much. All rooting does is allow you to access system files.. However, if you decide to install a custom rom or use the root to run apps such as LagFix or delete bloatware, you will definitely see an increase in performance. I was like you, wondering if rooting is worth it.. once I did it, I haven't looked back. It's so much faster!

That all depends on whether you want Asus apps and features, or the latest version of Android with a little more customization. Personally, the fastest stock rom I have used is CROMi-X, which can be found in the development forum. v5 was recently released, which is based on the latest source from Asus. Definitely good to try that rom out if you are a first timer, there is plenty of support and you will find the speed boost to be really nice.

Then there's Cyanogenmod 10.2, which is quite stable on the TF300 now and it is what I am personally using. It doesn't include any stock Asus apps at all, it is based off the official CM sources. To be honest, the performance with CM10.2 is really quite good and there may be some kernels coming that will allow us to even overclock :good:

With custom rom TF300T is like a new device.
Stock - never more

can i do the rom / unlocking root via the device itself if i have all files on usb? or do i need a pc?

I second that. I was too tired of the laggyness with the stock rom. So I flashed CM. Now I have no idea how did I stand stock rom for almost a year.

I'm currently on CM10.2 and there is like a new tablet for me. it runs really smooth.

I am currently on Paranoid 3-99 and I support the it feels like a new tablet argument in full mode.

So I highly recommend rooting it and going for a different custom ROM paranoid and cm are the best so i highly recommend using one of them good luck and enjoy the new experience
