What are the steps to returning everything to stock (unroot and stock recovery, stock rom) with this? Assuming it is rooted with this tool and flashed a custom rom, kernel.

Is it to reflash the stock ROM, then unroot?
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Mavosa:
You saved me! Awesome fix! I ended up using brks rootkit's ADB shell to do it too lol!
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] heyman123:
sweet! Been waiting for this to use on my sisters B70 model!!! THanks!
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Lilextreme:
Ok i installed & ran the razorclaw file from my device, clicked root & it says its rooted but seems to be having problems like Superuser is not giving root access & lotsa apps are force closing. Superuser was already installed before i rooted because my google account automatically installed a bunch of apps i had on previous android tablet,,,,,,,could that be why?

It seemed to work ok until I restarted my slider. Is there anything i can do to fix this?

--------------------------------------------------------------------

Update: it worked finally....had to update/remove update on Superuser a few times but finally took. Thanks again!

[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] smartmazila:
thanks, it works great on my TF101.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Tazzaras:
Ok so I just bought a Transformer and am getting ready to root and wanted to make sure I understood things correctly before proceeding.

1. After I update to latest fw and root and install CWM, if I wanted to unroot say to return to ASUS for servicing, would flashing the original fw do the trick and delete CWM and unroot or do i have to do something specific?

2. Where can I find instructions regarding CWM on the TF101, I have B90 and apparently they are rootable as many people have already rooted them?

Thanks
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] fatchick1o9:
Just wanted to let you know this works with the Transformer TF101-X1 B90 series that is going for $250 at Best Buy.

[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Tazzaras:
So does anyone know where firmware that is downloaded OTA is stored on the transformer? The latest fw on asus is v8.6.5.13 but the OTA has v8.6.5.19. Another question is using v8.6.5.13 to unroot ok if you upgraded to the latest prior to rooting?

As the source code for Razorclaw was made available - how easy would it be to mod so I can add different APKs in the place of superuser.apk ?

But I've got a problem here maybe I am doing something wrong. I rooted my device with no problem but I cannot get into recovery mode now no matter what I do. Therefore, I cannot install CWM recovery, any roms or unroot my device to reverse the process.

I tried these commands in Terminal Emulator and its continues to say "permission denied"....

I might've prevented myself from rooting too

Hey guy (and gals),

I'm new to the Transformer world, but not rooting or Android.

My GF gave me the Transformer for an early Xmas present, and in my fit of joy I upgraded all the software to the latest and 'greatest'. Now when I attempt to root via Razorclaw, I get an error saying it failed to root. I am hoping I'm being stupid somehow, and that I can fix it, but I've might've borked my rooting chances (for the time being, at least).

Any help would be appreciated, and if I can provide any information, please let me know. For now, I'll get my root fix on my EVO 3D.

Thanks!

[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] daoist:
Folks, please stop updating via the OTA and expecting to get root back. Its just going to lead to heartburn like this.

Once you're rooted, install CWM and use it to install the modified update.zips that I and others provide.

Yes you have to wait a bit longer (usually a day or so) but if you want to retain root its the only surefire way.

---------- Post added at 03:01 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:57 AM ----------

No dice on 19. Asus is releasing updates as incremental patches rather than full roms. That means it wont work unless you have the exact previous rom the update expects.

You may have luck with the .13 rom asus has on their site. If you can flash that then go through their OTAs until youre at .19 again you could use razorclaw to get root.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] cmdr001:
So... after seeing on the OP that I needed to have the most recent OTA update, I went and accepted the update that had been pending on my new device and it went from .19 to .21.

Razorclaw is failing.

I take it that with the increasing tightness of the system in terms of security, there's bound to be some point where we plain simply won't be able to get access to root, hm?

Are you sure it is really working ?

Because the backup of su and superuser is done in a directory where also the rights are changed by the OTA update.
