Not trying to ruin anyone's hopes here, but that rep is just telling you to call customer care because they have NO idea what you're even talking about.

Hilarious last response though to that rep nonetheless.
[Xperia Play General] DubleJayJ:
Ya after reading it I don't think the rep had a clue what you were talking about.
[Xperia Play General] paxChristos:
This comes up once every couple of months.

Do not open up a post saying what a customer rep says.

[Asus Transformer TF700] alienedd:
Among our TF700 Forums/Fora, there have been some people with issues involving the acquisition of the legendary root. It seems that though it is simple to get under typical circumstances, it is possible to encounter atypical difficulty for whatever the reason. I will try to gather information from the problems people have encountered and post possible solutions. Let it be known that I, myself, have not personally encountered these issues nor am I a Master Rooter of the Transformer series. I merely want to collect and present possible solutions so that those with problems will have an easier time of finding things to try and get their Infinity properly rooted.

If you have questions regarding why DebugFS isn't working, I propose you consult the main thread here. If none of these methods work, please start your own thread involving the things you have tried and the issues you are encountering as it will be easier for those much more intelligent than I to assist you with your problems.

Notes:

You do not need an unlocked bootloader to get root access.

Rooting the TF700 does not void your warranty - unlocking the bootloader does. (e.g. Not the same thing)

All commands will be listed in "double quotes" - the quotes should not be typed.

Make sure to always use the most up-to-date version of sparkm3's DebugFS script.

I will be updating this thread as I come across more problems / solutions.

DebugFS doesn't complete:

Make sure that ASUS Sync is disabled in Settings -> Accounts & Sync

Make sure Unknown Sources is enabled under Settings -> Security (under Device Administration)

Make sure USB Debugging is enabled under Settings -> Developer Options

Make sure you have installed the drivers (you can download the drivers from sparkym3's OP)

-It should show up in Windows Device Manager as an adb composite device

Make sure your computer can see the device (use adb from within the DebugFS package and type in "adb devices" - a list should show up with your device in the list)

Make sure that ASUS Sync is uninstalled from your PC

Try a different computer

When DebugFS does complete, you should be able to open up Terminal Emulator, type in "su" and your prompt should turn from "$" to "#". Alternatively, you should be able to do the same thing via adb ("adb shell" then "su").

DebugFS does complete but still can't get root:

Try to run the SuperUser application

Try to uninstall and reinstall SuperUser

Try to run the SuperUser Update Fixer (thanks to okantomi)

If all else fails, you can give this a try. (thanks to d14b0ll0s)

Hopefully, this list will eventually help someone.
[Asus Transformer TF700] d14b0ll0s:
Thanks for this, well done (I'm going to add a link to this in my tweaks how-to if that's ok).

I believe you could add this one to the list.
[Asus Transformer TF700] junrider:
Just received my champagne today fully updated .26, got root, busybox, and titanium back up with no problems... New to all this but had no problems getting rooted. Love the infinity (C7) so far GPS works,no light bleeds, good wifi, pretty smooth, hopefully the future updates wont screw my tablet and unlike the 4 primes I had when when it first came out defect after defect. Looks like this one maybe a keeper.
[Asus Transformer TF700] alienedd:
You can link to this thread if you believe that it will be helpful for others to read over. Any sort of suggestions of what you think would be easier to follow or details I should provide are welcome.

Also, I read over that post you noted and I have a question about that. The post mentions changing "adb wait-for-device" and suggests that it could be changed to "pause". Reading over the batch file though, it seems that sparky uses both "pause <CON" and "@pause <CON" so it makes me believe that perhaps one of those would be more appropriate. What do you think? or should I be directing this question to sparky?

Edit: I placed a request for the information in the main DebugFS thread.
[Asus Transformer TF700] d14b0ll0s:
I believe wait-for-device is more appropriate for a script, while pause is better for manual adb management (just imagine what happens).
[Asus Transformer TF700] alienedd:
My question was whether when modifying the batch file if the person should be using "pause" or "pause <CON" as mentioned in burningcf's post

(Copy & Vomited from post)

Alternatively, if you don't feel comfortable with executing the adb actions by hand, you might want to just replace all occurrences of

Code:

adb wait-for-device

with

Code:

pause

(or something like that.)

(/Vomit)

which may be something to try before actually going for a line-by-line manual execution.

Perhaps I should just add a link to the post itself but I'm worried that it might go over some people's heads as to what is going on there. Well, let's see if I can get some more background from sparky and then I'll include what I can.
[Asus Transformer TF700] sparkym3:
If you would like to update this post you linked to, I update the tool a few days ago to include pauses along with the wait-for-device calls. I removed the pointless lines that got left in there, and I am using a better way to determine su access. Finally, I updated it to kill asus sync if it is running.

The new version that should have all the fixes is v2.2

---------- Post added at 01:36 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:33 AM ----------

I responded to your post in the other thread, but I will copy it here as well, for easy reading.

There should be no difference between the pause that starts with @ and the one that doesn't (as far as this is concerned), I don't know how both got in there.

The reason that I added <CON to the end was because the script was ignoring the pauses and just continuing anyway (because it already had input stored in the buffer). The <CON just insures that the input is coming from the console (user) instead of some other buffer.
[Asus Transformer TF700] alienedd:
Thanks for the explanation in feedback in both threads. Much appreciated it.

Added d14b0ll0s's link to post for "last resort" situations.
[Asus Transformer TF700] d14b0ll0s:
Sorry for reading your post neglectfully, I was sleepy already ;) but I believe sparkym3 responded to it now.

Good job, thanks for this! I will update the rooting part in the tweaks thread.

And I believe there is no reason to add the pause solution here now or just you could mention it's obsolete.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Debbie1759:
Great post > thanks .... but ......

>> sorry if I am missing something >>> pls forgive as am very very NEW TO this " rooting" process

AND am still trying to GET MY TF700 from this crazy 'bay plac e !!!

so my question(s) is...

a) what hardware I need? or Does the transfermer (TF700) come with a USB cable to connect to PC

b) if not ; where can I get one of these ordered > so am ready when i get mine.

c) from what I read @ asus website > doing ROOT and UNLOCKING = voids warranty!! true ??

thanks in advance for answers
[Asus Transformer TF700] jjdevega:
A) It comes with it

B) no need

C) Rooting does not void warranty but Unlocking will void your warranty.
[Asus Transformer TF700] David522d:
After deleting asus sync, then reisntalling superuser from the market did the trick thanks!
[Asus Transformer TF700] Debbie1759:
Thanks

Thanks for info..:cool:

> looking forward to grabbin this bad boy and ridin him to ROOT ! :P:P:angel:
[Asus Transformer TF700] willjohnson:
having trouble getting rooted and tried your link, everything went fine, it even shows the uid and gid as = 0, but i still dont have root when i boot up and run root checker or superuser to update binaries. starting to look like i might have to go back to stock recovery and do a fresh install of firmware. I have even flashed TWRP through fastboot and installed a rooted rom (Zues v4) and still had no root. Really at a loss for what to do next.
[Asus Transformer TF700] FireStarter88:
Somehting that might help

Thanks very much for all your guide, I have always use XDA forums and learn alot about android devices. I want to tell you that yesterday I try to root my TF700 like 10 times and in 3 different computers! I follow all the steps and eveything but I wasn't able to Root it. But in my last try.. I went to setting and in USB Debugging (it was enable) I disable it and enable it again, and then try with the Debug and it finally WORK :laugh:

So well maybe this will help someone that could be in my situation.

Sorry for my bad english.
[Asus Transformer TF700] das0527:
I give up. I tried DebugFS, and that didn't work completely. Superuser seemed to be working but Busybox installer & TiBu didn't see root. I tried the manual commands in this thread and it's still not working. Screw this. Everyone that posted help threads on rooting & unlocking & etc. has done fabulous work, including this thread. But I'm just destined to live a rootless life.

*I have no interest in installing a custom ROM till JB is pushed out and I know the ROMs are reliable. I don't want to have to deal with so many bugs.
[Asus Transformer TF700] willjohnson:
I was in the same boat. I finally installed Black Bean rom which is JB based and it gave me root. The development seems to have tripled just in

Sent from my ICS Razr

---------- Post added at 11:36 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:25 AM ----------

I was in the exact same boat. Installing Baked Black Bean rom gave me root. I understand your concern with JB roms, however, there are only 2 bugs I have experienced-no GPS and portrait mode. Although they sound like big issues they really aren't. Any game or app I use that runs in portrait only mode works fine. Also I have seen 3 to 4 roms drop in the last 2 days. It will not be long until the devs fix all issues. This is a popoular device among Apple haters and I foresee a lot of really good stuff coming for this tablet. Just try out a JB rom and see how you like it...you can always go back. Hope this helps...I was just as frustrated as you.

Sent from my ICS Razr
[Asus Transformer TF700] das0527:
Will, thank you for the advice. However, until the custom ROMs become more stable - or until JB is pushed out officially - I'm very wary of unlocking & flashing a custom ROM.

>> am still using Virgin TF700..(recovered from FACTORY BACKUP) but did try the ROOT...using the "DebugFS" method..

and it works >>>>> MUST REMEMBER to stop/switch off this apps =

ASUS SYNC

..... that is something that got me @ first try..

DOH! than I realised .. and once turned off = worked like a charm !!!

just my 0.02c worth !
[Asus Transformer TF700] Lurkerdownbelow:
Thanks for the concise and step-by-step guide! It was the Asus-Sync that had me stymied too. Removal and a subsequent reboot let the root go through. I spent around 8 hours reading posts and trying various things before I found your thread. Thanks for taking the time to post it.

Home

Welcome! OTA Update Center is an Over The Air update service, that is free of use. This project is especially for the rom devs around, to be able to implement an easy to use, and free OTA Update app. The project has one goal, to provide a way to provide OTA Updates as easy and noob friendly as possible.

How does it work?

We provide a server backend and an updater app. Devs just have to register, make an entry of their ROM, add a few lines on their build.prop, provide a direct-link to the download and optionally a changelog. The rest is done by our service. Users will automatically be informed for any updates and installation is automated

Features

Add and remove OTA Updates in a centralised database.

Check for updates on boot of devices.

Check for updates manually when the person wants to.

Download the rom and flash it directly.

Download the rom without flashing.

Wipe data and or cache/dalvik before flashing the update.

Its free to use!

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Landara:
I am not sure if this is the right place so please forgive me if I am posting in the wrong forum. I know many of you are experts on GOogle Voice so I was hoping you fellas can help me.

A long time ago I set up Google Voice as my Voice Mail, on my Sprint EVO. I had barely heard of GV then, and I don't remember anything about the process. I am now getting ready to switch carriers to straight talk and I was interested in porting my Sprint number to Google Voice. I have done the research as best I can and determined that my new provider does support Conditional Call Forwarding(with AT&T SIM which I am using), and that Google Voice can port my old sprint number. So I went to google voice website to do this, and discovered that I apparently already have a Google Voice number(didn't know this) and that it is already the same as my Sprint number. So, as you can see below, apparently according to this the number I want ported is in fact already my google number? And it appears that I can already set this up to ring my new phone? So how then do I port it if it's already my GV number? And what happens if I don't port anything, then cancel Sprint? I am SO confused right now. All I want to do is port my Sprint number to GV, then enter my new carrier number to GV so that people calling my old number will be calling my new phone instead. I already use GV for Voicemail. Here is a screenshot of GV account below.

EDIT:eek:k just realized i didnt black out all my numbers, but meh, you guys aren't gonna call it are or do crazy **** are ya? For that matter if you want to call it to help, or text, feel free! LOL! I'm serious!
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] killathenoob:
Please If anyone could direct me to the answer I'd be eternal grateful. here is my issue and I'm not the only one with it there are a few of us.

Bought a Rogers HTC ONE X on launch day Unlocked it and hooked it up to the Telus network. right from the begining the phone would not connect to the Telus LTE network for what ever reason I doen know it should be compatible.

I've bounced around from every rom in this forum some would let me phone connect to LTE but only 10mbps download until I cam across KingCobra 1.2 based on Asia 1.88 (other roms at the same time were based from this same build) with this rom and the included V6 supercharger in the aroma installer my LTE came to life and my download speeds were 25-55mbps depending on the area I was in.

Here is my Question what is it about that rom that got my phone to connect to the Telus LTE network with thoes speeds??????????

Here is some of the stuff I've tried

V6 Supercharger - I've installed it with other roms of the same and different bases but still no luck.

Radios - I've flashed every radio and radio + Ril but still no luck getting it to work

Roms - tried every rom in here with different combinations and still no luck

Could there be something special about the telus rom files for it to conect to there LTE network? Does anyone have a Telus RUU I can try flashing to my phone to see if that helps?

I'm at my wits end with this problem and its driving me to the point where I'm thinking about selling my One X and getting the SIII and I hate samsung phones lol
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] kilo89:
You probably just need to enter the Telus APN. Turge lives in Canada so his ROMs might already include the Telus APN. This would explain why the KingCobra1X ROM would work but others won't. A quick google search should give you the APN settings.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] TheNightHawk223:
Here, just enter this in your APN settings. Settings>Mobile network>APN>New Apn

Name: Telus SP

APN: sp.telus.com

Done!
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] killathenoob:
Thanks guys but I should have said in the OP that this is one of the things I first tried. My APN is the exact same for other roms as the KingCobra rom.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] WorldIRC:
Have you contacted TELUS technical support to ensure your account is LTE provisioned?

To provision, you require a V3 SIM Card, an LTE compatible plan (they should all be), and an LTE compatible phone.

There are a "rare few" that don't get provisioned automatically, DNA support can assist with this.

Have you tested your LTE SIM in another LTE phone? This would show if it is account related, network related, or possibly your hardware related.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Taknarosh:
As WorldIRC said you need to tell Telus you need LTE enabled on your account.

That being said I haven't done that with Rogers yet either but I've realized HSPA+ has been perfectly fine for me especially since I only have 500mb data plan.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] killathenoob:
Yes I have a v3 sim from Telus and my account is LTE enabled. I have contacted customer support and they tell me everything is fine at there end. Like I said it works perfectly on the KingCobra 1.2 rom. That tells me that it's not my network/plan or my hardware

I'm not the only one with this issue I know of at least 3 people with the same setup (unlocked Rogers phone on Telus network) Turge (dev behind the KingCobra rom) being one of them.

Even Turge can't figure it out that I know of. When he changed the base of his rom to 2.23 it broke the LTE for us if we did a full wipe but everyone else is ok.

It's really puzzling and I've spent all day messing with the Build.Prop in clean rom using settings from the V6 supercharger, from the king cobra rom what ever I could think of. Best I could come up with was

Phone connected to LTE but download was 10mbps and upload was 25mbps this is the best I can get on any rom other than KingCobra
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] WorldIRC:
Still running the TELUS radio file?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] killathenoob:
Yes I'm running the Telus radio found that it gave me the best results I haven't tried the new 2.20 radio yet but I imagine it won't make much difference as I've tried every other one
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] killathenoob:
Anyone else got any ideas about this problem? Do you think it has something to do with the sim unlock? Could that have effected it?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] chewable:
Try a different APN http://www.telusmobility.com/en/ON/accessories/other_nhgdmicrosim.shtml

APN: isp.telus.com

Proxy server: 74.49.0.18

Port: 80
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] killathenoob:
Tried that one still no luck I'm really starting to get frustrated with this I really like to flash new things to my phone but I also like all my features to work and this is bugging the %@$#& out of me.

Think I'm going to put my phone up for sale and get a different phone.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] WorldIRC:
Your unlock won't cause any problem.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] killathenoob:
Yeah I give up I went back to KingCobra1X 1.2 cause that's the only rom where my LTE works properly.

Going to check out my options might sell this phone and get the galaxy S III
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] :
You can +1 with another Unlocked Rogers HOX on Telus with the same problem. I always thought it might have been a Toronto thing, but now hearing you comment about this there must be something Telus does...perhaps to force you to buy their phones.

I don't think I'm going to give up on the HOX, I love this machine to death. Secretly I'm hoping someone will leak the stock Telus ROM so I can flash out of the stock Rogers ROM. I've recently updated to the latest Rogers Stock, and still same problem. LTE dl speeds capped around 10...

Lemmee know if you find a better solution than using KingCobra, I'm dying to see what true LTE feels like =P

Cheers!!!

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] WorldIRC:
I'm using a Telus One X....I haven't rooted / custom ROM'ed it yet...but contemplating doing so for LTE test purposes.

Right now, bone stock, I hit a max of 47mbit down today at Vaughan Mills; with an average of 20-25 mbit today.

OP have you tried the latest KingCobra rom released today?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] TheNightHawk223:
Well I have LTE in all roms with a AT&T One X, just putting sp.telus.com as the APN.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] killathenoob:
Yeah on KingCobra 1.2 I get 25-55mbps its nice. I tried flashing his latest 1.4 but it was bugged wouldn't sync Google apps was waiting for him to fix it before I tried again.

Yeah I get LTE on most roms its just the download is capped at 10mbps for some reason and I know it can go faster.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Athrun88:
I was never personally a fan of LTE even after I got my HOX, so losing it really didn't kill me. I am on the Telus network with a Telus HOX. I will revert back to my stock setup and see if I can pull anything out of it that is different from my current setup (CleanROM 4.5). IMO, 10mbps is plenty fast enough in everyday use, blows all my iJunk buddies out of the water anyways =p. Will report back.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] killathenoob:
Yeah if you can pull your Build.Prop for me that would be great so I can compare it to KingCobra and the other roms.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] WorldIRC:
OP, I notice you're still running the stock radio. Do the WiFi connectivity issues carry over in your new ROM while still running that radio?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] killathenoob:
It's actually not the stock radio for my phone. My phone is a Rogers phone unlocked on telus. And I don't seem to have any wifi issues on this rom
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] WarRaven:
Interesting thread, I just got a Rogers HOX as well, haven't talked to a rep yet about provisioning it into my account. It's just too late.right now.

I did a speed test earlier and was.shocked at my ping, over a second.

Download and upload speeds were carrier based pigeon speeds.. horrible.

I'll call in after.another test tom morning if it don't come alive by then and post my results.back here.

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] WarRaven:
Update to my earlier post, LTE came on an has been fairly stable since my last post, Telus says switching is automatic on their system as long as you have a newer v3 sim card.

Ping is horrible but speeds are ok.

I'll give it time.

I am having same issue.

I am using Telus one x with kingcobra 1.5, and my LTE speed only around 15mbps.

If I restore to telus rom come with, I can get 25-50mbps.

I think there is some setting in telus rom, which allow you to break the 15mbps limit.
