[Asus Transformer TF700] KaliS-Pugilist:
I want to repeat that I think this thread is excellent for providing a step-by-step process. I would like to update that I am now on CleanRom and that I did so without downgrading or rooting to begin with. Here are the actualized steps that I took in doing so. Remember this is coming from a stock JB ROM, unrooted, and locked.

Phase 1 : Unlock Device

1. Install Asus Offical Unlocker (even though your are on JB and it says ICS Only, it works fine)

2. Follow the instructions

3. You have easily unlocked your device.

Result : you have an unlocked machine on the latest JB update from Asus with no warranty

Phase 2 : Install Custom Recovery

1. For this phase I simply followed the instructions stated by 'scrosler' in this post here: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=32825422&postcount=3

2. I used the latest TWRP version, which at this time is 2.3.1.0 (even though in the post it calls for TWRP 2.2.2.3...the post just needs to be updated. You will be fine with TWRP 2.3.1.0 or whatever is the latest version)

Result : you have an unlocked machine with the latest JB update from Asus, with no warranty and custom recovery (TWRP) installed

Phase 3: Install Custom ROM (most custom ROM's are rooted, so you will have root after flashing)

1. Copy Custom ROM to microSD (or to internal, didn't really matter. I downloaded straight to my tablet, using the CleanROM download link)

2. Reboot to TWRP Custom Recovery (power off fully, then simutaneously hold power + volume down, as soon as start-up begins and you see the writing on the upper left of the screen => press volume up).

3. make backup of current stock ROM (you don't have to, but I'm used to doing that)

4. Wipe Data/Factory Reset

5. Install/Flash Custom ROM

6. Follow installation instructions if using CleanROM or another with AROMA installer

7. Reboot Device and Done!

Result : you have a rooted/unlocked machine, Based on Official Asus JB 4.1.1, no warranty, custom recovery (TWRP), and a Custom ROM

here is a link to CleanROM with the instructions I used: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1919851
[Asus Transformer TF700] Thats OK:
Tablet firmware version can be viewed by opening settings on the notification bar then /about tablet/ look for version ending with .26 or .30

Unlocking gives access to the bootloader partition.

Unlocking allows overwriting the bootloader with differing kernels or a ROM and of course installing custom recovery.

Rooting is similar to administrator access, many downloadable apps need to write changes to the system thru superuser access.

With root the system can be addressed by the user for tweaking at the lowest levels.

As far as no big deal there's a lot of opinion here.

Some don't hesitate to unlock others hang back insisting unlocking is too great a risk.

Losing a warranty or OTA updates are a very big deal to many.

Yes...

This will also open the tablet up to a whole new level of customization.

Root only limits your ability to flash new kernels and ROMS

Unlocking allows an easier road to flashing ROMs or Kernels with a custom recovery.

With ICS at .26 there is an option to NVFlash before upgrading search for info on this.

No problem upgrading from any ICS version far as I know.

If you don't keep root from ICS with a rootkeeper into JB you will have to back down to ICS reroot then probably have to manually reflash JB.

Again all subjective and personal choice

No real reason to not update to JB you wont be able to root once your on Jelly bean without unlocking.

To root from within JB you'll have to use a method that's outlined here in these forums.

Hope I haven't mislead.

Lot of [Qs] in this posting...

[Asus Transformer TF700] zeddock:
What a GREAT response. Thank you.

zeddock
[Asus Transformer TF700] zeddock:
Might it be under Build Number or Kernel Version?

Nothing ends in .26 or .30

zeddock
[Asus Transformer TF700] Thats OK:
Should be the build:

Something like 9.4.5.30 for Ice Cream Sandwich or 10.4.4.20 for the last update from Asus.

Either of the above would be a stock version.

I'm on CleanROM so mine indicates: CleanROM 2.4

Edit are you on .21 by some chance?
[Asus Transformer TF700] zeddock:
.22 maybe?
[Asus Transformer TF700] Thats OK:
Ah ha .22 not .21 (.21 is non existent)

You are lucky!

NVFlash is still available to you.

I'm envious :good:

wow, a pristine 9.4.5.22.

If so, tell me quickly pease.

Thanx!

Info at that link says I have to have an unlocked tablet first?

Not sure what to do since I want a nvflash of the pristine system, how can I work to unlock it without messing with it being pristine?
[Asus Transformer TF700] buhohitr:
Nothing you can get from your company tablet. But it's a gold tablet since it has the .22 firmware where you can use NVflash on it. When you buy a new one, just keep your fingers cross for it to come with .22 or .26 firmware.
[Asus Transformer TF700] jazee:
Just want to first say, being an iOS Jailbreaker about to bail on Apple due to tired of waiting for jailbreaks, I really find it refreshing the great response the OP has got here. On the other hand, with 6 devices and 2 kids in the house, I'm a little leary that I'm going to have the patience going from an iPad to a TF700 looking at all the information here. (I actually left iPad stock, just did jailbreak on my phone.) I'm a long time coder/tweaker/power user so none of this "scares" me, it's just makes me feel tired reading it as my life already feels like there's not enough time in the day. Then I see these other threads about people bricking their devices. Ugh.

That said, I ain't no coward! So this thread has been immensely helpful in getting myself psychologically prepared (LOL).

So here's the question (or two):

If there's a performance issue that cleanrom solves, then obviously I consider I have no choice. But let's say for a second there isn't any performance issue with the stock ROM (some say there is, some say there isn't from what I've read so far -- I imagine cleanrom provides other benefits too, but lets say I don't need them.)

The main reason I really want to give Android a try is unlike Apple may wish, I can't afford an iPad for everyone in the household so I'm ecstatic about the multi-user profiles in Jelly Bean 4.2. But I see this was just released to VOSD (or whatever it's called) just today I think. The other thing is one thing nice about the iOS jailbreak is that a) I could go back to stock ROM at any point for warranty purposes, and b) I wasn't time to some third party developer for installing ROM updates.

So if you were in my shoes and about to get a TF700 what would you do? Wait for ASUS to come out with a 4.2 update with user profiles? How the heck long could that be? Install cleanrom even though it doesn't have user profiles? Install cleanrom when there is a 4.2 version with user profiles and if so, realistically when will THAT happen? Forgive me if my questions don't make sense. Like the OP, I am familiarizing myself with the Android Customization Ecosystem.

Odd thing is, if I re-read my message I just realized, I'll be back in the "waiting game" boat just like I was with iOS! But I think Google is going to make some serious headway with Jelly Bean, User Profiles, Nexus devices, etc. Things seems to really be ripening in the Android Universe.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Thats OK:
You might be a candidate for the Nexus 10.

No guesses about 4.2 forthcoming for the Infinity.

I can see the multi-user advantages certainly a great feature.

Seeing your wants then perhaps the very latest AOS would be best.

Essentially IMO the infinity is somewhat buggy and very recoverable with tweaking.

Knowing what I now have learned as an owner I wouldn't spend more than 400 for a new one.

Frankly I think the tablet is worth less than 400 retail.

Most are fortunate some are not.

Goes without saying who knows what the future holds with Asus updating..

[Asus Transformer TF700] ingenihero:
After two weeks of using my Asus TF700T (running cleanrom 2.3), here are my opinions:

I have had 3 unexpected restarts.

I am still having unexpected flickering black lines on the screen.

Performance is not good not bad...

I don't trust the device, it seems it will break down in a short while. (Just a feeling)

I will go on with the device because of microsd ability.

Result : If you don't need a microsd slot, don't but this device. It does not worth the money you pay for it.

Thank you very much, but it doesn't work for me :(

It results in removal of the top notification bar and no soft-keys bar at all (also a UI Error notification each 2 minutes).

I have Stock 4.1.1 DLI1

Another point: I have detected (in my current RECENT APPS - HOME - BACK layout), that when the MENU key is required, a new icon appears in the left moving the other 3 persistent icons few pixels to the right.

Besides that in the Nexus the layout has the opposite sort, Nexus puts this menu button (when is needed) in a way that the other icons are not moved. Take a look to this screenshot that shows what I mean:

http://r.phonedog.com/shared/images/2011/12/170648-Ice-Cream-Sandwich-Menu-button.png

Do you think that is a hard thing to implement? Maybe I start learning about unpacking apk to modify things...
