So, I was able to root my TF101G B50 on the latest 8.6.5.21 OTA last night with this: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1185104. I now have working SU, BusyBox, & CWM recovery installed.

Though not a one-click like RazorClaw, it was quick & painless, although a bit disconcerting with the black screen in APX mode, sucessful nonetheless. :D
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] igot6strings:
I'm in a bit of a pickle. I have no power button. I use ADB to push and install blobs to get roms to work. I used Razorclaw on the last stock update from ASUS all worked amazing then the OTA came out and I stupidly installed it. Now I am trying to get my root back by pushing a blob to the device but adb will not let me use SU anymore. I tried doing a factory reset from settings but without a power button theres not much else I know how to do. SU app remains despite reset too. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] habylab:
Tried the other root method on here? 7.1 might work for you!
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] igot6strings:
I fixed it but not without difficulty. I took the bezel off and used what was left of my power button to do Nvflash. Now im back to stock and ready to RMA......which ive been putting off for several months :)

I love my tf...
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] nEUTRon666:
I am sure, i restored with ota rootkeeper after the update to .21 and still have full root, checked with titanium backup and other apps..even my vpn stuff is still working. Just needed to put the tun.ko driver in place.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] UstesGreenridge:
none of the methods have worked on my b70 8.6.5.21..i guess no root for now..
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] sagar_tiru2006:
Dont know if what I am thinking is Dumb or fine but suppose if u got a B80 device with 8.6.5.21 root restored and you backup your root and giv it to some1 else with a B80 device can he restore the same...

I mean has any1 tried this .....

I am sorry but i am always keen enuf to do this stuff.

If ny1 hav B80 root restored on 8.6.5.21 please shoot me the software name and backup files if possible i will try it on my TF ....

can it brick my TF btw ?????
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Spiral_ouT:
I'm willing to try this if anyone has these backup files for a B90 transformer. Or is there no chance this would work?
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] DallasJones:
Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] PatrickVogeli:
Worked on my B80 transformer! Thanks! Just a question, since this roots the device using an exploit, i guess we should avoid future Stock ROM updates, since if those fix the exploit we won't be able to go back, is that correct?
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Lizard:
Very nice!

Thanks to all the people who made this possible.

Just used the market app and it installed and rooted my TF B7O np.

Just a quick safety warning !

Do not install a blob that contains boot AND recovery

just flash a blob that has recovery built in !

that way u have a fallback if something goes wrong !

This may be a dumb question, but can I flash CWM through ROM Manager?

Not work on my 101G B90... Razorclaw write: "this device lacks the needed file (bad luck)

пичалька...
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] lilstevie:
no, no you dont tell people to ignore warnings, there is a warning in place for a reason. flash goes bad device is bricked.you are unbelievable, first you hijack the thread with your recoveryinstaller, then you tell people to ignore any warning.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Bumble-Bee:
As long as it JUST flashes recovery .... but the warning is very very important ....

If a recovery flash fails u have /system

If a boot flash fails u have recovery

If a boot and recovery flash fails u have a BRICK

So stick to flashing JUST recovery first off and then boot

;)
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Bumble-Bee:
Humm what rom version are you on ? this realys on the asus-backup stuff working.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] x_jane:
Not work...
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] wolf849:
Apparently it will not work with any tf101g as they do not have 'App Backup' functionality :( Moreover if ASUS decide to release an update containing that ability it would be probably patched up so it is to early for us 3g. :mad:

So any of 8.6.6.x roms cannot be rooted :( (hopefully only for now)
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] lilvoice32:
well you need clockworkmod, but yes, you can :P lol
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] ValenteL:
Sorry but ... What is a blob ... please.

Thanks
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] x_jane:
Thanks! Will waiting update... Or patch :)
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] wolf849:
BLOB is packed up firmware for ASUS Transformer it is provided inside zipfile that is flashed through recovery.

BLOB it self contains partition layout etc.

Normal BLOB (full one as that provided by ASUS) contain such partitions as system, data, boot, recovery etc.

Modified blob may contain one of those partitions and only that partition is flashed to internal memory.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] sp0r0s:
what about unrooting? is this possible?
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] lilstevie:
the blob or nvblob is actually just a packed format the bootloader interprets to flash the hidden partitions.

it flashes PT, EBT, SOS and LNX
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Waspanater:
Man, such a painless process!

Good work guys!
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] gee one:
Ok, if you are so eager to try this, I posted a .21 rom in the dev section. It will flash via cwm. You might have to mount /system in cwm. Good luck. Let us know how it goes. :)

OTA rootkeeper worked for me, installed it, updated my TF and rootkeeper restored root for me, i am a happy person.

So if you want to update, install rootkeeper first.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] ChaoticWeaponry:
If you're on 8.6.5.19 then you can root. If you're on 8.6.5.21, then you can't root.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Spiral_ouT:
I think you might of misunderstood what tiru2006 and I were saying. OTA Rootkeeper creates a backup of your root. If someone used it on their B90 model Transformer on .19, than those of us with a B90 on .21 might be able to use that backup file to achieve root.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] wildestpixel:
you still need to get those files into /system/ location. Can someone set up a step by step test ?
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] lilstevie:
not quite how it works :p

it locks the binaries using an ext4 feature
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Spiral_ouT:
Ahh OK. Thanks for clearing that up.

[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] TheSgrash:
to have this tool working with the latest ota update you must use voodoo ota rootkeeper
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] gls9:
The tool is not working with latest OTA (.21) update. You only kept root because using OTA Rootkeeper before OTA .21 update and restore root after .21 update.

This tool is only working on .19.

So procedure is:

1. you are on .19

2. Use Razorclaw to get root

3. Use OTA Rootkeeper to backup root

4. use OTA update .21 (root now gone)

5. Use OTA Rootkeeper to restores root

Root is back now.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] jpmccarthy:
You may be able to get root back ...

Hi Guys - a friend pointed me to this post which worked for him, I tired it on mine and it worked as well (I have a B80)

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1417006

Once I put in the SD card, the TF picked up the update and immediately worked to apply it - I have root back, have not put the OTA back on (but did install OTA root keeper :o) )

Cannot guarantee this will work for you, or any damage it may cause, so use at your own risk - can only say it worked flawlessly for me (its a downgrade to 19).

hi

i did razorclaw on my b80 101G and it all worked. Now I want to sell mine so I did the OTA update to .23...which worked.

Seems to be unrooted now (which is ok), but superuser.apk is still there after factory reset.

any ideas how to remove superuser.apk??? with some root explorer gave me access to the dir of superuser.apk, but delete is not possible. titanium backup does not run to remove superuser.apk

Hi guys.

I have used a previous version of RazorClaw to root my B70. Works fine. Now there's a firmware update which I can't instal because of the root. Update process hangs.

What is the best way to overcome this?

Do I need to unroot? How do I do this?

After I unroot and update to new frimware. what do I do? Can I then use last version of RazorClaw?

I have seen a few posts (rootkeeper) but it's a bit confusing

Thanks alot for your help
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] baseballfanz:
Yeah use ota root keeper, it unroot plus keep a copy of your root files Update firmware and use ota root keeper to restore your root.

You could also unroot, update and use NachoRoot to root as Razorclaw will not work with the updated firmware.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] Steven_nl:
I'll give it a try.

Thanks!

Those are steps to be run with ADB.

This only work if yo have NOT installed CWM recovery.

If you do have CWM recovery there's a different method of unrooting.

Is there any way to downgrade from DE 8.6.6.23 to 8.6.6.19, instead of use NachoRoot to root or is the downgrade useless and NachoRoot the better option?

And last but not least, does this all works with serials >B70, in my case a B80

NachoRoot (or ViperMod) is probably easier than trying to downgrade which I don't think can be done anyway.
