Asus Transformer TF101 | ICS 4.0.3 | Compilation IML74K.WW_epad-9.2.1.24-20120503

Thank You!
[Eee Pad Transformer General] whomps66:
I have a TF101 serial number starting with 0 and US version. I also have to face with reboot problem twice.

Command Screen say that;

Reboot: Operation not permitted. (both Revovery and Flashing screens)

I used a laptop with operating windows 7 32 bit. After reboot problem, this time I try to exectue the batch file as an administrator but, the laptop can not see the device.

Finally, I reboot my device twice manually. Then, I waited for the final reboot. The final reboot completed. There is no Superuser apk. I get into the recovery menu and I installed by manually.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] 1234556789:
-thanks.. it did it,but no root.-and the recovery- if i trie to go to recovery after pressing vol up i only see the android layinf with a red triangel and exclamation mark.

May i try once more?

Kind regards and sorry for my englisch

By the way :funny comments
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Thing O Doom:
Try V0.2, it fixes reboot problems mostly. If it can't see it, then drivers need to be re/installed. Is USB debugging enabled?

So did you manage to get Rouge recovery on there and root?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Thing O Doom:
gandalf - sorry that was a typo, I meant factory reset and install the *latest* firmware.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Thing O Doom:
Running into a few bugs with getting Nvflash proper, I'll be tweaking it in the car. Should come out sometime late tonight [idk between 1-4am] (V0.5 With unbrick/Return to Stock tool/options.) I'm on Pacific time. (PST)

I want it to be totally bug free so I can focus on the .apk version totally (This is in Pre-alpha essentially, still working)

I'm also switching to the Universal Naked Drivers, which I've had better success with.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] empire501:
Worked like a charm! Thanks for all of your hard work. Much appreciated! TF101 on .24!
[Eee Pad Transformer General] johnp012001:
Thanks! Had trouble at first until I read the Read Me in the .zip. I had administrator rights, but didn't run cmd as administrator. Once I did this worked like a charm!
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Aircondor:
Very Nubee

Ok this is the first time I have rooted this tf101 from scratch . I must say it was a dream, once I got it to start.

All the read mes I have seen assume that you at least know something about the process but , and I hope I'm not alone here, I didn't . So I say it was a dream after I got it to start. Oh and read to the bottom of the read me. That is where I saw USB Debug . no mention of how to get there but I had seen it before so after some looking I found it again.

Maybe ,for the total nubes out there, put a step by step at the top to tell us how to get the tablet set up to take the flash at the beginning of the read me.

I know most people will say 'you should know how before you try' oh and 'read read read' which I did a lot of , but found no mention of Usb Debug in them either , accept to say be sure you are in usb debug when someone had a question of why it wouldn't work.

I must say this was great to use and did its job well , went right through like it was supposed to and rooted the thing first time i then added Android Revolution HD 3.4.1 as my first rom and will see how I like it.

I did notice that I seem to not have access to the Sdcard cant mount or read from it or format it something I missed ? Great work :D Thanks Clicked ..
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Hhunted:
Hi all.

I would like to update my tf101g with 9.2.2.6, but It appears that it doesn't want to work via the rogue xm recovery.

I downloaded the 9.2.2.6 file off the asus website and extracted the zip file inside. Copied the file on the internal memory /sdcard/. Rebooted to Rogue xm recovery and chose install from internal memory, but during verification it reports back that whole file verification failed and thus the update aborts.

Am I doing something here?

Currently rooted with this method and on 9.2.2.4 with tf101g.

Your help and suggestions appreciated.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Dzangrizalo:
Same here, messages are:

Signature verification failed

Installation aborted

Any help?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Thing O Doom:
Gotta disable script-assets and signature verification in CWM. See if that helps
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Hhunted:
Good morning

Tried that as well and it still fails with " assert failed write_raw_image tmp blob staging" errors.

Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Cookie Ninja:
the problem may be that the update wants to overwrite rogue recovery with the update recovery blob.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Hhunted:
I will have to take your word for it since I don't know any better. So a factory reset, which I really don't want to do, might be the only way to get the latest firmware installed?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Thing O Doom:
hmm. Try finding a cwm-flashable stock-blob in the development section (Plenty floating around)

I'll whip one up for you all if you can't find the version you're looking for, it works perfectly fine for me though. (O.o) [I unroot and reroot alot to test PERI]
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Hhunted:
Thanks, busy looking for a flashable version of 9.2.2.6.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Hhunted:
Hi again.

Not sure if you have seen any, but I'm only finding 9.2.2.4 that is flashable, others is custom mods thus not stock.

Could you possibly point me in the correct direction?

I am on WW version, currently on 9.2.2.4 and Tf101G.

Thnx again.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Aircondor:
Probably wrong but

This is probably wrong but I had to copy the flash rom to the main root to get it to go. Rouge wouldn't look at my sdcard at all. Maybe try putting it in the root of the on-board memory ??:confused:
[Eee Pad Transformer General] mipd1980:
You Saved me

Oh Man Version 4 just saved me.....I had been on a CWM Boot loop for the last two days after reading and reading time after time not to flash CWM from Rom Maneger I accidentaly did it and Screwed up my TF101....and This Unbricked me big time...Now I"m back to Flashing....Thanks Again.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Hhunted:
Hi there

I presumed you downloaded the stock rom from asus website? I don't have a sdcard in mine so I had to copy the file onto the internal memory (root). That depends if you are referring to the su root folders?

Thnx for the help.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Thing O Doom:
He means root as in the first part of the directory, I think
[Eee Pad Transformer General] 1234556789:
--but i have the latest .24 firmware .

kind regards gandalf
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Dzangrizalo:
If I understand there is no solution for problem mentioned above?

I've tried what you mentioned but still without latest firmware (9.2.2.6) on my tablet.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] tokugawa:
I have the same problem... TF101G 9.2.2.4, rooted with PERI 0.4, trying to update to 9.2.2.6 OTA stops in Rogue XM recovery saying "failed to veryfy whole-file signature".

Been searching around now, but there is no clear indication of what is possible and I don't want to risk reading between the lines, so here my question: is there any possible known documented way to update to 9.2.2.6 from 9.2.2.4 with PERI-0.4?

Alternatively, I've also looked at ways to restore stock recovery (and remove Rogue XM), but I haven't been able to find anything clear either (again, I don't want to "guess", it's just too risky for me).

UPDATE:

Nevermind, I found a way, here's the step by step way for people who have the same issue:

1. Go to http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1689193 and download the 1-Click Transformer Root tool

2. Do the process that restores ASUS stock recovery

3. Update OTA to 9.2.2.6

4. (optional) root or flash CWM recovery if you want

(Sometimes it's really hard to search and find solutions for problems, especially when most postings are written for people who already know lots of terms associated with flashing and ROMs, and there rarely is any glossary that explains anything)
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Hhunted:
Hi

I managed to get mine updated as well.

I flashed my recovery to Rouges latest non touch version and then booted into recovery and went to mount all the partitions and then proceeded with the update via internal storage.

Update went successfully and I am on 9.2.2.6.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Thing O Doom:
You can update to ota using cwm too with the blob file using dd.

Or put stock recovery back on there using this:

Download recoveryblob of stock recovery and put it on internal storage (/sdcard/)

Type in adb shell or terminal app:

su
dd if=/sdcard/recoveryblob of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p4
reboot

And that's stock recovery.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] SpaceRobot:
Successfully rooted my .24 C30 TF101 using this. Stock ICS 4.0.3, Thanks a bunch.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Bruce777:
Thanks a bunch for this tool, very detailed instructions. Unfortunately, since rooting with this method, my Transformer tf-101 no longer shuts down (it freezes while shutting down--I need to boot into recovery and select "power off"). Any Ideas?

At first I thought it could be Guevor's latest kernel, so I flashed my Nandroid Backup (pre-new-kernel-install) and it had the same problem.

FYI, I already performed a full wipe and factory reset (twice) and I fixed permissions (out of desperation:)

thanks
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Thing O Doom:
I don't think that's PERI related, I'd try flashing a custom ROM, never heard of it not shutting down properly like that.

BTW: Hold power for 15 seconds to turn off totally
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Bruce777:
Did your tool include a custom kernel? I flashed the Asus stock kernel and the problem went away.

Thanks anyway for telling me the issue had nothingto do with you ;)
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Thing O Doom:
Nope, just Rouge XM recovery and root if you flash it. Something might have messed up somewhere though, just assume Demons. :P
[Eee Pad Transformer General] jazzruby:
A Stock CWR NANDroid (TF101) doesn't backup the kernel or the recovery, only system and data.

[Eee Pad Transformer General] Mato_Z:
Hello,

I bought tablet Asus Transformer TF101 and I updated it on Android 4.0.3. Details about my tablet are: version of core: 2.6.39.4 android@Mercury #1, number of built is: IML74K.WW_epad-9.2.1.24-20120503. I found your tool PERI. It looks very simple. But I have question before I run this tool. Must I install adb drivers with this tool when I installed drivers with Asus Sync from their official website? Thanks for reply.

Mato
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Thing O Doom:
Yes, ASUS Sync drivers are for MTP data transfer, but the ADB drivers are simple enough to install, especially on windows 7.

It'll be quick and painless :D
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Mato_Z:
Thank you very much. I am root :-) Now I have one question: After I used this tool - Can I use standard function of Asus Transformer TF101 Android 4.0.3 - Encrypt tablet? (it encrypts all tablet) Won't it be a problem?

Thanks for reply.

Mato
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Thing O Doom:
Yes, there should be no problem using it. All standard functions should work properly, aside from receiving OTA updates.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Mato_Z:
Thanks, I go encrypt it. But OTA updates - Do you think automatic updates from ASUS? For example: In future can I automatic update my Asus Transformer TF101 on new version of Android or new version of Asus firmware over wifi?

Thanks for reply.

Mato
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Thing O Doom:
Not while having a custom recovery, you can download and install yourself just not automatically.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Sib64:
Good stuff

Thanks

it's cool and the users will appreciate.

I note your OP on the TF300 index ;)

[Eee Pad Transformer General] rjw12321:
apk?

I hope you dont mind me asking but i was wonder if you had an idea of when the apk will be released ? I tried the windows one click root you made but my tablet cant be found by any computer i plug it into (the driver was installed on all computers) im using the tf101 with the lastest updates
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Thing O Doom:
The apk is in Beta and mostly done, I want to be able to be SURE it's 100% bug free for all 3 tabs (101 201 and 300) so i need to rely on some external testing.

Patience young padawan -- Err something..

A few days -- I hope.

All pending on testers and results.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] rjw12321:
Thats great news i would help test it but i cant risk bricking my tablet as it is my only form of a computer atm
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Mato_Z:
Hello, I want use application LuckyPatcher, it requires upgrade to Busybox 1.19.x and install SuperuserSU (ICS). Can I upgrade and install it, if I used tool PERI?

Thanks for reply.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Thing O Doom:
If you want to root so you can use a root app, yes.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Batmund:
hi

so i just rootes my tf101 with 0.4 and now try to reboot in cwm, but now i can't turn my pad on without connecting the power cable! when turned on the tab seem's to be working just fine, but the problem i cannot turn it on without power cable drives me crazy!

any suggestions?

thanks
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Thing O Doom:
This isn't normal, try a total reflash of everything. If that doesn't work it's hardware related I think.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Batmund:
i will try reflashing everything then, but a question first.

Do i have to unroot before trying to root again?

i used your root as mentioned and i have installed the last stable revolver rom...

issues came just after rooting and i cannot boot in recovery except for when rebooting device and using the choice of "reboot in recovery"

thanks for help so far! :)
[Eee Pad Transformer General] AndyLeJizm:
First it didn't work(I had a recovery bootloop), really have no idea why.. copied and pasted that recoveryblob into internal storage and suddenly, went through all steps again and kapow. Props and many thanks for this tool!
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Thing O Doom:
Reflash with NvFlash is easiest, it may unroot depending on what blob you flash, I recommend a stock blob prerooted by gee one. I'd worry more about a power button issue though, if you can't reboot except with choosing the option.. :[
[Eee Pad Transformer General] smithchipz:
Took the plunge and rooted today. After looking around, I chose this tool and was pretty happy with it. It has everything someone would need and tells you what to do step by step. I was surprised at how simple and efficient it was, coming from a phone that required many steps to root and flash ROM's. I had no errors using it, well done dev :D
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Thing O Doom:
Is this working with .27?

I'll test later if I don't get an answer.

APK almost done :]!
[Eee Pad Transformer General] alexmart:
this is working with .27

Thanks
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Thing O Doom:
Thank you for clarifying!
[Eee Pad Transformer General] :
I just rooted my TF with no problem at all. Everything was really easy and well explained. My FW was WW 9.2.2.4. Thank you for your effort to make this posible.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] AudioFiend:
Just recieved my tablet back after having to return to stock so it could be be sent off to get repaired. Im happy to say the hardware issue is now fixed and they also updated to .27. Everything rooted and back to how it was

:good: to your easy method.:D
[Eee Pad Transformer General] RobAGD:
I just got my Tablet back as well, New screen and some new other hardware, SD cards work in it correctly. Ill be rerooting tomorrow.

I wonder what they changed in the UK in .27 and the US is still on .24

-Robert
[Eee Pad Transformer General] ssooffoo:
Just rooted .27 with your method. Worked perfectly. I'll get a SD to flash a new rom over the weekend.

Cheers!
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Krish.Nagarajan:
Anything for Linux users?

Thanks in advance.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Thing O Doom:
"wine cmd PERI.bat" should work running a linux box if you want to give that a try using WINE. You could also pretty much copy paste the file into a .sh and run the commands, omitting my bad jokes.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] just lou:
I got tired of running completely stock, so I used your utility to root. 27, and install an overclockable kernel. The only minor issue I had was I had to manually flash Super User. I love the Recovery you use much better than CWM.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Thing O Doom:
This is part of the process, as I want the user to at least learn how to flash a .zip :P

Info on the APK --

PM me for Pre-Alpha access to the APK version of PERI. you MUST have access to NvFlash for me to send it to you, as I will NOT be responsible for a brick.

Should be ready to send out to a few selected testers in a couple days.

.21

Hello

I apologise in advance BUT I cannot read any more stuff - I heve spend the last 2 weeks with reading page by page...

TF201 - Pre-Installed ROM: IML74K.DE_edap-9.4.2.21-xxx....

Device had been unlocked with ASUS tool.

Problem: I cannot find a simple and working solution for getting my TFP rooted and the virtuous Prime installed.

(ViperMod does not support .21, CWM needs rooted device - and so on)

Then I see US and WW versions and instructions but nothing seems to fit.

Please please please - a little advise would be so helpful!
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Thing O Doom:
You're unlocked.. just flash a recovery through fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

It's pretty easy x)
[Eee Pad Transformer General] nikitov:
That is another problem as "Wolf's ultimate downgrading tool" (I would use for that) says: Do not use with unlocked devices or you will brick them.

May I ask whether you know a way how to flash as you mentioned it please?

Many thanks for your quick reply.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] jazzruby:
Hi nikitov,

What ToD mentioned is not Wolf's file linking method/exploit but is instead the fastboot method.

You need to boot the device into fastboot mode and have fastboot installed on your PC

You also need a recovery image in the folder with fastboot and run the terminal/console from this folder

The command is:

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

If the above doesn't work you can try adding the device id

fastboot -i 0x0b05 flash recovery recovery.img

As far as using Wolf's exploit on an un-locked (bootloader) tf 201;

Wolf's file linking method symlinks the 'staging' partition to the writable [ /data/local/tmp ] location in order to copy/write a blob file (e.g., custom recovery) and proceed to flash upon (re)boot.

While there might be a risk in flashing a full-blown system image (if you're not careful), I think you'll be alright flashing a custom recovery (Method 3); which you can then use to flash a custom ROM

As always, read, read and read some more; and you PROCEED AT YOUR OWN RISK

HTH,

[Eee Pad Transformer General] nikitov:
I have downloaded fastboot (Date modified: 04/05/2010) but just found a recovery blob for the TF101.

The thread you have mentioned is far above my skills.

PS: I have tried to find a recovery img for the TF201 - w/o success.

Am I right by believing that the fastboot app is way too old?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] nikitov:
AAARRRGGHHH! I am getting mental!

- unlocked TF201 (.21) states: "Starting Fastboot USB download protocol"

- Device Manager: Asus Fastboot Interface

- ADB as a new System Variable under Environmental Variables added

- Recovery file found and renamed to "recovery.img" (in folder where fastboot sits)

- cmd as Admin run

- Navigated to folder where fastboot & recovery.img are

- 1. attempt: "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img"

- 2. attempt: "fastboot -i 0x0b05 recovery recovery.img"

>>RESULT: < waiting for device >

I have restarted (both) new driver installen and uninstalled (naked driver, android 1, sdk ones)

Edit: when starting the TFP normally "ASUS Comp. ADB Interface" appears as well as under

portable devices. I have then updated the driver with the one from viperMod.

> I rmember having seen a "adb /sdcard push..." command - cannot find it anymore - what was that?

--> I give up...
[Eee Pad Transformer General] jazzruby:
@nikitov

The push command copies from your PC to the device

The pull command copies from the device to your PC

Am I missing something here? Did you try PERI and it didn't work?

-JR-
[Eee Pad Transformer General] palomosan:
I'm on build .27, would this work?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] bfmetcalf:
It will work on .27.

As for the guy with the TF201 I think this LINK would be better suited to your needs as this is the TF101 forum and you should be in the Transformer Prime forum, you aren't going to find any info on your prime here. :)
[Eee Pad Transformer General] palomosan:
Thanks but I actually just finished rooting my TF101, this was as easy as pie.

1-Unzip the files.

2-Copy the SU file to the internal memory (Don't put it in a folder and don't unzip the files)

3-open the .bat file and just follow instructions.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] padibuz:
Thing o Doom, thank you for the great piece of kit you put together.

It worked flawlessly, from start to finish. Funny installer, too :)

I was unrooted, with the latest firmware. No issues.

:good:
[Eee Pad Transformer General] typci:
Thanks. It worked, I'm rooted. However, ever since I used this my adb is all screwy. Device is offline and device not found errors. Not just with your program but with my apk batch installer as well. In fact apk batch installer won't work anymore. Tried uninstalling and reinstalling adb drivers, didn't fix it.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Thing O Doom:
I'm off on leave for a few days so support I provide is limited :[

It sounds like a driver issue, OR you flashed something weird in CWM, as I've never had this happen before.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] R@id33n:
Great Development / Rooting Tool

You have combined rooting and recovery in one process. And with a touch of humor :D. Enjoyed the whole process. I've flashed many roms since my old Optimus One up to recently on my Sony Xperia Pro. But none of them were humorous and clear as well as interactive, considering it was command line. Those traits set you apart. :good:

Many Thanks ToD

http://i.imgur.com/Oe4d4.png I am getting this error message when I try do do anything, I can use my device and es file explorer to navigate to that file path to see that I do have an sh file, I dont know what to do from here. To give you bkg, Improperly installed a ROM and was stuck in an infinite boot loop I then ran your tool in unbricking mode and it stopped the boot loop somehow but it gave that error... so i try again just trying to reflash it and again I get that error I cannot get into APX mode because my volume up button is physically broken. Any Ideas? Also when i try volume down and power i see the android and the wipe data icon but I cant select either due to no use out of the vol up button so the device just "cold boots linux". Help is greatly appreciated.

If it helps any I am able to work in Ubuntu 11.04. Currently on Windows.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Thing O Doom:
Since I really can't figure out exactly what is wrong with your TF (Could be, MANY things.) At this point I'd take the file 'recoveryblob' and place it on the root of internal /sdcard/ and run all the commands manually in adb shell or in terminal emulator, you can look at the commands for reference in the .bat file, or see wolf's exploit method 3.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Josama:
With the apk release will there be a way to unroot the device?
