It is already a recovery management tool. Run it after you get root and you'll be presented with a menu to manage your recovery, switch from stock to CWM or CWM to stock ( maybe before next OTA).

Hi, root worked fine for me. But as I'd like to use warranty, I need to unroot and go back to stock-rom. What a pity I didn't make a backup of my stock rom.

How might I go back to stock from your rootkit?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] e154037:
What I mean is a tool running from tablet directly instead of adb.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] idcrisis:
This is a good question. I was debating today whether to add the unroot option because it can be done with the tool currently with very small additions.

This tool is perhaps the only way to unroot which exists without deleting all your data and flashing a whole new firmware fully.

If the rest of the rom is stock and all you did was get root using this, then you can run it again and choose option '4. Install Asus stock recovery'. This is just to be sure that stock recovery is installed back to your tablet. You might be on stock recovery already. This will do it again. No harm.

Then making sure that USB debugging is enabled on the tabler, open and command prompt and cd to the '1-Click Transformer Root\Source' directory and then run the following:

adb shell

That should connect you to the tablet and give you a prompt similar to:

shell@android:/ $

Then in the tablet run:

su
mount -o rw,remount /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 /system
rm /system/bin/su
rm /system/xbin/su
rm /system/su-backup
rm /system/app/Superuser.apk
busybox find /system/xbin -type l -exec busybox ls -l {} \; | busybox grep busybox | busybox awk '{ print $9 }' > /data/local/busybox.links
for i in `cat /data/local/busybox.links`; do rm $i; done
rm /data/local/busybox.links
rm /system/xbin/busybox
rm /system/xbin/\[
rm /system/xbin/\[\[
reboot

That's it. You're unrooted!

This will only make sense if you're otherwise on stock ROM. Otherwise you'll unroot all right but the fact that you're on custom ROM will give away the fact that your warranty is lost.

If you're on custom ROM you'll need to flash the full stock ROM using Wolf's method 1 (if you still have root) or method 2 (if you don't have root any more) here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1622628

Good luck!

Tf101 9.2.1.27 working!!

:laugh::fingers-crossed::good: It is working on the TF101 9.2.1.27
[Eee Pad Transformer General] limpet_love:
help me!

OK, I have the same tf101 9.2.1.27 (ICS 4.0.3). I downloaded the 1.0 version of 1-click on the 1st page. I have no idea what to do next. I installed it. There is no obvious 'root' button or anything, just shows what files are on my tablet (not much as i did a factory reset). what do i do with it?

I am complete novice to rooting etc. Is there anyone out there who could tell me what to do with 1-click once it is installed and the other steps with twrp, kat kiss etc? I have been trying all week....

I cannot connect tf101 to pc as it is not detected. I have downloaded drives to pc and to tf101, no luck, i have tried different ports/cables - tablet still not detected by PC.

Please help me - I want to use my tf101 again. :eek:

Hello Guys

I have an old TF101 and I'm starting the story to install KITKASS ( Root, TWRP, KITKASS) !

I'm Newbe

Finally I downloaded file from lesebas link .

Please could you explain step by step what to do ?

1) connet TF101

2) run only .bat file ?

3) what happened after this ?

there is not instructions in OP :(

thanks

md5sum cant open recovery blob no such file or dirctory
[Eee Pad Transformer General] TikvahPrince:
Okay so not sure if people want an answer to this but I worked it out.

Basically, the OP download for the tool isn't downloading the the "recoveryblob.7z" file properly and hangs, leaving a 0kb file.

To fix this, download the recoveryblob.7z from the OP post at the bottom with all the firmware blobs, then place this file into your "Source" folder inside the "1-Click Transformer Root_1.1" folder. Run the tool and select option 3, it should ask you permission to flash on the tablet via SuperSU. Once you accept, the tool will flash the CWM recovery to the tablet and after a couple reboots will boot you into it :)

Cannot root!

Hi, guys!

I need help...

According to the script info, I have the following device's firmware:

I used v1.1 of the script, but I didn't manage to root my tablet.

The scripts breaks on step 3:

As you can see, for unknown reason, the filesystem is not writable. After this line everything else is going to hell (see the logs at the end). I tried to understand, what might be the cause of the problem, but I didn't. I don't know, what to do, because both nvflash and bigwheelie do not fit for this tablet. The only hope is this script...

Hi, guys!

Can anyone provide me with v.1.0 of the script? The links are broken.

Thanks in advance!
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Exterminator13:
OK, I've managed to install TWRP recovery and then root my TF101G. The script from this thread didn't work for unknown reason. But, I found "PERI-0.42 One click root+recovery" for all the transformers including TF101G from this thread.

All you need to do is to install the recovery, and then root your device from the recovery or do whatever you want (install custom ROM etc.)

I have two replies concerning this tool:

adb.exe from both "One-click recovery..." and "PERI one click recovery..." is outdated, so I found the newest Android platform tools from here (direct link for downloading), then updated both tools and repacked them (I'll put the download links at the bottom)

You have to be careful to not mess recoveries for TF101 and TF101G. As for TF101G, if recovery is not for TF101G specifically, you'll not be able to update your boot, for instance! I added both recoveries to the archive for "PERI one click recovery". Check your device version, then copy and rename *.blob file to "recoveryblob" before script execution. By default, script's folder contains recoveryblob for TF101G.

Download links:

1-Click Transformer Root from this thread with updated ADB: link

PERI-0.42 One click root+recovery which works great (ADB updated): link

Android platform tools separately if needed (adb, fastboot etc.): link
[Eee Pad Transformer General] mr_fosi:
OP links are bad

Hi all.

80 pages later and the 1-Click Transformer Root links in the OP no longer point to the files.

The 4shared links in the OP no longer direct you to the 1-Click files. Even if you make it past all the fake error ads you still don't get the files.

Does anyone have the original files? I recently came into possession of one of these tablets and would like to be able to root it with the tool that everyone says works.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Exterminator13:
See my post exactly above yours:

The first link is what you're looking for!
[Eee Pad Transformer General] mr_fosi:
Welp, that makes me feel like a retard, lol.

I read through 20 pages of this thread looking for an updated link and then missed the one right at the end.

Now to see if it works.

The original 1-Click from this thread didn't work for me either, much like your post from the 12th. The PERI 0.42 worked perfectly.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] idcrisis:
Hi,

I'm on the road. Please do try the section :

"- If you don't have internet, then fret not, you can manually download the Asus stock recovery from the second post and extract it in the 'Source' folder. Even if you don't do this, you will still have root. "

explained in the third post. Basically the files are all there as attachments that have changed in the new Web design and the tool is trying to download.

You can simply download the attachments from the Web page and place them in the 'source' folder.

Then run the tool.

Cheers.

Currently I'm using Revolution HD Rom. But I wanted to go back to stock.

As I'm not so experienced with that... where do I have to put that SU-code?

And where can I open ADB shell?

Well, first I need to flash back to stock ROM. Where may I get that?

Just the "DE_epad-user-9.2.2.4.zip" from ASUS webpage?

---------- Post added at 07:14 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:35 PM ----------

And btw. "This is a good question. I was debating today whether to add the unroot option because it can be done with the tool currently with very small additions."

What was your decision? Shall I wait for it? ;)
[Eee Pad Transformer General] idcrisis:
Since you're on a custom ROM, when and if I do add the unroot code :) , I don't think I'll be putting in a way to flash entire ROMs, that's a flashing activity best done elsewhere. Since this tool is mostly about root on stock ROM, unroot, as far as this tool is concerned, should only be to remove all traces of root installed by this tool.

Since you already have root, you are best served by Wolf's method 1 here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1622628

Just extract the blob from: DE_epad-user-9.2.2.4.zip and use it for his Method 1.

Also remember to wipe your data after installing the stock ROM as he mentions in the end. - Keep [vol down] and [power] pressed upon reboot till the Android and 'Wipe data' appear. Then leave the [vol down] and [power] keys. Select wipe by switching with [vol down] and accepting with [vol up] pressed two times.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] joealley:
I have just rooted my TF101G with this method. Thanks to idcrisis this is one of the easiest procedures to follow. :)
[Eee Pad Transformer General] pglover19:
You are right about the ICS firmware. I upgraded to ICS from version 3.02 last night and love it so far. I see no reason right now to root and install a custom firmware ROM. Am I making the right decision or is the custom firmware out there really good? Please advise.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Arjoma:
If you love the normal ICS firmware you updated on (totally understandable because it is really quite good), I still recommend just staying there, no need for you to install another ROM I'd say. Custom ROMs often make more sense if you have a device that is cluttered with bloatware or an ugly manufacturer skin, or if it is stuck on an older Android version - which is all not the case for the Asus Transformer.

The custom ROMs for it are not bad, but they don't improve the experience that much (as I said, usually some design tweaks like a battery percentage indicator, and another boot animation etc, eventually theme support and some other small things as well as the possibility to overclock the processor). And at the same time you lose some of Asus' optimizations and your warranty of course.

So I'd say, keep your firmware as you like it, especially if you have no real experience in flashing zips or even have to unbrick the tablet if something goes wrong. ICS + Asus' subtle improvements look good and work well and Android let's you customize a whole lot with apps without needing root. And if you feel you should do the step in some months or so for whatever reason, you can still do it.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Cysign:
Thanks for that. Didn't know how to start DAB shell. But it'S quite easy: run windows command-prompt, enter folder of 1-clice transformer root/source

and enter "ads shell" :D

Wolf's Method 1 worked fine for me, still need to wipe to remove traces of root.

Thanks for your wonderful tool and the advice how to unroot :)

Hi,

Just to let you know that there was an packing error in the 'blob_WW_epad-9.2.2.6_recovery' file.

So, if you're on 9.2.2.6 WW, please delete the blob_WW_epad-9.2.2.6_recovery and blob_WW_epad-9.2.2.6_recovery.md5 file from the 'Source' directory and run the tool again. It should download the correct version from the second post.

Or you can download it manually and extract the files before running it again. You may have been left on cwm recovery, so you can just install stock asus recovery this time to write over it.

Thanks and apologies for the inconvenience caused.

Sorry for being an idiot, but I used this 1 click method to root and custom recovery my tf101g.

Sorry again for asking. Still loads to learn about rooting and custom roms and recoveries.

could you please tell me how to remove the root from my asus transformer 9.2.2.6 because its has some problem ..

when I go to titanium app the hypershell, fast/auto app install, dropbox, box and google drive don't work !!
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Arjoma:
If these features are disabled it sounds as you just are not running the full (Pro) version?

If you remove root (disabling it is easy with the entry in the devekloper options, if you really want to remove it completely, there are the steps some posts above- or you need to flash a totally clean stock ROM), then Titanium won't work at all because root is needed for all of its features.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] idcrisis:
Yeah, looks like you just aren't PRO and/or root. You might try reinstalling the PRO key in Google Play. It may be in 'Purchased' status and not 'Installed'. And you might try re-getting root again with this tool. Did you select unroot at any point?

Also see this: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=27456350&postcount=87

If you're on 9.2.2.6 WW, you can perhaps delete the two files mentioned ( or just download the latest version of the tool and extract and run it from a separate directory). If you're root, you'll get a menu and you can choose 'Install Asus stock recovery'. That will flash your tablet with it's latest stock Asus recovery capable of OTAs. Or you can choose 'Install CWM recovery' and you'll get the latest CWM recovery.

Are you on WW or TW? Did you use the latest tool? Are you root?

Let us know how you do.

Cheers!
[Eee Pad Transformer General] lilbrown:
am on WW and how I can if am used latest tool or not !

please attach the link of latest tool.

no, am not a root!
[Eee Pad Transformer General] idcrisis:
In the first post, you can use version 1.0 if you like.

It'll get you root on your first run then your Titanium problems will go away.

[Eee Pad Transformer General] Cgenec:
so, i have been trying to use this root method for about 2hrs now, and I cant seem to get it to work.

I have downloaded v1(stable) and unzipped it to a folder I created on my desktop. I placed my tf101 in debugging mode, attached the usb and ran "1click transformer root" .bat file as an administrator.

The blue box appears and says a "bunch of stuff" and press any key to continue. after I press a key, i get a chance to read, this may take up to 5 min to download, but then it goes through some fast prompts, and the box closes.

I have disabled Asus Sync on the tablet and on my PC, and ensured that Splashtop was disabled (just for the giggles). I have also ran the driver installer "dpinstx64.exe" to manually install drivers

is there any help that I could get in using this tool?

I wish i could provide more help by showing the log, but it disappears so quickly. and my tablet doesnt show up as a drive letter, to echo (or at least I dont know how.)

Thanks

Hey there again, I'm still running into issues with running 1-click.

I have included the copy of the command prompts in both echo on, and echo off.

In both situations, my computer just beeps at me and run the continuous countdown from 9sec. or until i press a key. Then the process repeats again.

Thanks for your help with this, its awesome to be able to communicate with the developer so easily.

Just for fun, should I try v1.1?

Thanks so much
[Eee Pad Transformer General] scorpiondi:
I'd say a big YES. Version 1.1 worked for me on kernel 9.2.2.6 without any issues.

Well, I have a tf101 with 9.2.1.24. Do you still think its cool?

Sent from the grave using taptalk.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] scorpiondi:
Sure, try v1.1.

Make sure you have:

- usb debugging turned on

- running the "1-Click.bat" as admin

If it still doesn't work, and from the errors in your log, try adding the "Source" folder to your path (google for: "windows 7 add folder to user path").
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Cgenec:
some grief

So I just did some looking around on this, When I right clicked the .bat file, and ran troubleshooting, it comes back saying there is no path for it .exe

any ideas where the path should be, or is my computer just dumb?

THANKS LENOVO!!:confused:
[Eee Pad Transformer General] scorpiondi:
Windows troubleshooting won't help.

First, enable debugging mode on your device:

- go to the options menu -> Developer options (bottom left) -> USB debugging (first option)

Have you downloaded the v1.1? I believe it's best to use that one. Anyway...

The folder you should add to your windows user path is:

"C:\Users\Christopher\Desktop\Asus 1click root\1-Click Transformer Root\Source"
[Eee Pad Transformer General] idcrisis:

NOTE- with all the times i have tried rooting this tablet, i was switching back and forth between, MTP & PTP. At first this new update didn't work, but as soon as i switched it to PTP, I was off and running.(quite possibly a rookie mistake, by me)

:D
[Eee Pad Transformer General] ils01:
The process runs now but still no root. Attached text. Can you take a look and tell what went wrong.

Edit: Got it working finally. It turned out that Windows Defender and Zone Alarm Extreme Security were the culprit (I am leaning more toward Windows Defender). After they were disabled, everything worked.
