need ww 8.6.5.6. thank you
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] npuk:
me too thank you
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Tistitus:
Great, good to hear that it works somehow !

Can you help me with that download (stock 8445)? cos I can't find it on Asus's site (I digged already for it... in vain :o ). Or can you just upload it somewhere, or just give me a direct link, please?

Thank you.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] butro:
This link should work.

http://support.asus.com/download.aspx?SLanguage=en&m=Eee%20Pad%20Transformer%20TF101&p=20&s=16&os=32&hashedid=gHh4q7I8dvWJzhdV

Hit the + sign next to firmware. There is a link for WW 8445 and WW 84411. I suppose you could unroot right back to 84411. Once you unroot and get the 3.2 OTA for WW, you should follow the first post the get the boot and recovery images for WW tablets and send to mashi. He can then make a WW 3.2 root. :)
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Tistitus:
Well...I was stupid...:o:o:o:o

When I searched earlier I couldn't find the firmware download link... cos for the OS I've chosen Windows 7 64 bit instead of Android.

Thank you for your help, hope I'll be able to unroot safety my device in order to get the ota update.

Thanks again :)

[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] dan0412:
Can someone else confirm the version of the boot image in boot_us_84411.zip. I ask because everytime I run root / cwm with that boot.img and then try to boot to recovery (volume down + power button), the screen shows WW_xxxxx. up the upper left corner.... and then goes into a boot loop ( until I flash 'nvflash unbrick'). Will this root work if I manually upgrade to stock US 8.4.4.11 prior to running it?

Thanks.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Aeleks:
Help!

I followed your guide and everything worked up until step 4.C.

When i restart my Transformer i see the boot screen EEE..., but then it turns into some garbled crap. I can't read anything, its like static on a tv with bad signal.

I tried redoing the from step 1 but same result.

It's a german Transformer, serial number starts with a B6.

*edit* I used the unbrick method from the stickied post, and now its working again, but running Prime 1.4 with Android 3.1.

How can i get back the stock rom 3.2?

What can i do?

Thanks for your help,

Michael.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] kovla:
There is also the TB SKU (for Belgium). If you'd care to add it.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] dan0412:
So, why doesn't the OP update post #1 with this info?!
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] warrencarreiro:
This works with 3.2 Here is HOW TO DO IT.

I just rooted my new Transform which had 3.2 installed so it works. What may not be obvious is the extra step required.

If you have 3.2 on your TF do this before you start the root process at the beginning of this thread.

1) After you have extracted Tf_rootkit_31 (item 2b in directions) rename the boot.img file to boot.imgOLD (this is in the root folder of the extracted Tf_rootkit_31) You are renaming this because you will replace it with the 3.2 version)

2) At the start of this thread the file you need is there (boot_us_us56.zip), download and unzip that. It will unzip to one file, boot.img. You then take that file and copy it to the same folder (root folder of Tf_rootkit_31).

3) You can now run the root.bat file when instructed to do so and it worked for me. All this may have been somewhere else in the threat but I did not find it.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Persnlmgr:
Excellent instructions in post 1, and this addendum (above) makes me really happy I read through the thread before attempting to root my new Transformer (w/ 3.2).

Major props to you guys for making this so easy...first try, perfect execution!!

Thanks!!!

A couple of quick questions, though:

I'm no noob, (rooted/modded 6 phones already), so no offense to anyone, but is there an Amon Ra recovery for this?

I own Root Explorer, and tried installing it but it just gives me FCs...any ideas? Is it even necessary? The built in (stock)

File Manager seems to show all Root files if you uncheck the Hidden Files box in Settings...will this just show the files or will I be able to manipulate them?

I'm already running Prime 1.7...

[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] rommark:
Does it works for the new B7 ?
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] katmandu421:
I'm looking for a ROM that successfully pairs and works with a generic apple keyboard. They are good quality and a great form factor for the tablet, find them on amazon for around 25-30 bucks. They work except for two little niggles. The shift key is recognized but it doesn't stay in a depressed state, so to speak. If you hit both the shift and another key at exactly the same time it registers, but it seems the key times out as and does not hold it's state while the button is depressed. It also needs to be unpaired and reconnected each time.

Does anyone use an apple, either official or generic, with this ROM?

I should add that I have tried switching to the native HC keyboard, the ASUS keyboard and the gingerbread keyboard from the market.

TIA
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Jimmy34742:
before I brick my new TF...

I've rooted my SGS2, so I'm not a total n00b, but I need to make sure I understand before bricking my new TF. I did all the updates before looking into rooting it, and now it says it has build number HTJ85B.TW_epad-8.6.6.9-20110804. I assume, then, that the downloads presently in the first post won't work for me, right? I assume I'm waiting for boot_tw_8669.zip to become available so that I can substitute the correct img into tf_rootkit_31, right? Or can I go ahead and use boot_tw_8656.zip and it will replace my later build with the older one?
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Mr.Clark:
Possibly a stupid question, but for the non-US devices, is the boot.img in the boot_ww_84411.zip the correct version?

I've got stock 3.2 at the moment and would like to just root and install CWM. Nothing cosmic (yet!)
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] TeveT:
I haven't really read up on everything, but my European version is at 8657 so perhaps we need a file that matches that version?
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] alirezaircn:
I have stock TW_epad-8.6.5.9-20110816. Can I use this way to root my TF? :confused:
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] butro:
No, not yet. I should be able to provide files to mashi tonight so he can help out with your (and soon to be my) version. I sent him a PM about the new firmware version so hopefully he will be willing to update this root method with at least the TW version. The 8659 is only out for CN and TW Transformers at the moment, methinks.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] butro:
Yes, you are correct. Make sure that the extra boot image that you download matches your SKU (WW, US, TW, etc) and your current firmware version.

If you read the first post, you could extract the unrooted boot image for mashi so he can provide the rooted boot image. It's pretty easy. Buuuuut, I would just wait for the new OTA coming to you pretty soon and then sending over the file.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] MrTimms:

[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] DroidRevenge:
After you are rebooting your TF pressing POWER+VOLUME UP windows ask you for APX driver, here you have to search for driver in the "usbpcdriver" folder contained into the ZIP that you HAVE TO DOWNLOAD from 1st post...

[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] trancemode:
hmm.. I'm not sure if its what I installed or the root but some how after the reboot of the root, it feels a bit "laggy" like if something is taking all its memory.

I am going to try to do a restart and see if that fixes it.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] fone_fanatic:
I noticed that as well.. maybe superuser scanning for apps that require root? Anyway i was messing the the srs_processing.cfg to fix the speaker balance issue, and after a reboot or two its back to speed :D

well I'm also using AVG anti - virus too might be the issue.

[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Eyedoctor2:
Two last questions before I go for it

Thanks for the great work on this mod.

Two more newbie questions:

1) "(OPTIONAL) if you want clockwork mod recovery,"

Do I want clockwork recovery? What does it do? Is it easily reversed if I need to unroot?

2) Once I have finished the process, rooted, backed up with Titanium Backup, what is the advantage of flashing Prime 1.4/ nvflash as described in http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1123429

What does that do? Is it easily reversed?

Thanks in advance! Love this forum!!
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] fone_fanatic:
Prime already comes rooted so really no benefit in doing this on that rom
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] fone_fanatic:
Just do a Google search for cloclworkmod recovery. It basicly replaces the stock recovery allowing you to do rom updates, nandroid backup/restore, and flash several other things.

That nvflash is just a tool to easily flash at more of a system level so it makes it easier to revive bricked devices. Also this root method uses nvflash when you run the boot.bat
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] jimbobalu:
If I use this to root and install Clockwork Recovery I can then back up my stock 3.1 ROM and install any other ROM using Clockwork Recovery, correct?
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Krynn!:
Looks like the US version of 8.6.5.9 is out now...

I wasn't going to install it until after the root was available, but a friend was being helpful and 'updated my apps for me'. Ok, so they did ask first, but the update in question turned out to be this. Oh well.

So, since I'm stuck with no root, I've attached the boot and recovery images in the hopes that mashi or someone can help me out.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] DilloDroid:
oops wrong thread
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Krynn!:
Hrm... Unless I'm screwing up somehow, the boot.img that was posted just after midnight for the US 8.6.5.9 doesn't allow root.

UPDATE: Well, yup. I was screwing up. After updating the boot.img to the insecure one, you have to redo the chmod 6755 on /system/xbin/su via ADB. Everything's running fine now.

Use nvflash unbricking procedure, but use instead the stock 8.6.5.6/8.6.5.7 images of bootloader, boot, recovery, and system extracted from the blob file from the appropriate download from asus' website.

Had an overnight update (UK), I assume to WW 8659 - currently on 8657. This fails to install, not surprisingly. A few newbie questions...

1 - can I turn off over the air updates to avoid being prompted to install?

2 - can I get rid of the current update to kill the prompts each time I boot?

3 - will I be able to update without unrooting the device and restoring to factory?

4 - what's the best method to backup my full configuration in case I need to restore to factory - Titanium does a great job with apps and data, but doesnt seem to back up the screen layout, and nandroid I assume would overwrite an updated rom?

5 - how do I apply the new update (happy to wait) as an upgrade (i.e. minimum upheaval!)

Thanks to all who have made this possible - we really appreciate all your efforts!

[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Michael@:
looks as again I'am too stupid.

Following on #52 of this thread I always stuck at 4c which means the reboot step after flashing CWM. The logo appears and then after a while the screen looks scrambled (just pixel) and a bit later the gadget will reboot into same procedure again and again.

I tried different dls as the one from megaupload hasnt been reachable for some time, same with the CWM, no chance. So 3 questions:

Is that because my gadget updated to 3.2 ahead of I went through that procedure?

Is there any way for me to complete that half done job?

If not how can I go back to where I have been before?

Can this cwm.bat be used to install to a razorclaw rooted 3.2.1 device? I have installed all the drivers, and I know that my device is in APX mode because when I hit the power button to cause it to do anything, I get

failed executing command 14 NvError 0x30012

command failure: partition download failed

But when I run cwm all I get is the

Nvflash started

[resume mode]

and it sits there (I let it sit for 7 hours and it didnt do anything, until I powered it out of APX mode into eepad mode.

when in eepad mode, I get from adb.exe devices:

List of devices attached

anyways, Dont want to move forward at all with clockwork recover mod to I can nandroid backup, and obvious push other roms to the device.

Hola,

am I the only one having problems with that guide in post count 52?

I think I went through that procedure quite acurately but as the download link of 'Recovery Zip (solarnz-R3-240511-1908)' in

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1093818

never worked for me I googled for and dl anywhere else. The problem is the tb does not start into any UI instead revolvingly reboots (screen looks scambled after some time later reboots).

As I found out now (displayed after booting into recovery mode) I obviously installed 'solarnz-R3-230511-1908' ('2*3*0511 instead 2*4*0511) even though the downbload file is named ...240511... :mad:

My question is are the OS and CWM two different things? What can I do now? It currently seems not to be possible to access the device via adb but tb can be started into recovery mode (POWER button and volume minus, volume plus after). Do I have two different problems or is it just one? Is is possibe to update to 3.2 directly from where the device is right now? Thanx for any help on this

When I hold the volume button down and the power button at the same time it boots into a "wipe data" icon. It says press up volume to confirm or down volume to cancel. When I cancel, I get a reboot into the normal homescreen as in the adb scenario above.

Can anybody confirm cwm working properly?
