[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] reffu:
It doesn't matter where you put it. APK files are (kinda) the android equivalent of a .exe on Windows. To install it, transfer it to your tablet somewhere you can find it, then open file manager, navigate to the apk file and open it. It should bring up the install dialog, (assuming you have unknown sources enabled) and install the app. Once installed open the app from the launcher or the drawer, go through the agreements and click the unlock button. It should work from there (it errors out at this point for me, but if it's going to work this is where the actual "Unlocking" will happen.)

At least you got people actually willing to help. When I called, The guy put me on hold for 3 min (after verifying EVERY single piece of information I filled out on the online form) then came back and told me the process voids my warranty (which I knew already) and said that this was primarily a "Warranty/support company" (his words not mine) and that they can't assist me in voiding my warranty. He was acting nice about it, but he acted as if the sole reason I was trying to do this was to void my warranty.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wetbiker7:
Thanks for grabbing that question Reffu.

I transferred it to my external SD and installed. The file is straight up apk so you don't need to be in recovery to install it. I just navigated to the SD with file manager, tapped on the apk and installed it.

You can transfer it to the internal too. It really doesn't matter where it's at. (Internal or external)

Edit:

I was connected to wifi when I unlocked my bootloader. Are you guys connected to wifi when you are trying to unlock? Don't know if it matters or not. Just saying.

I have contacted Asus as well. I sent mine in, already unlocked, because of a system board issue. It was an issue which came from the factory, but regardless, I unlocked it and voided the warranty, so I paid to have the board replaced and just got the unit back. Now I can't unlock either.

When I talked to a 'supervisor' I was told they would not help me with my issue because they do not support unlocking the device and will not tell you how to do it. I told him I KNOW HOW (dumbass), it's not working. Regardless, they wouldn't help at all. So now I have a repaired tablet which WENT OUT unlocked and came back without the ability to unlock. THANKS ASUS!!!

In all seriousness, Asus is renowned for having quality overclocking motherboards, vid cards, etc. to gain performance, yet they won't provide a tablet in the same manner, this is ridiculous.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] onemotodroid:
Can this tablet be rooted without unlocking the bootloader? If so, is there a rom that use the stock kernel?

Just picked this tablet up and the version of JB install will not work with the Unlock apk.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] reffu:
As far as I'm aware, there is no root for Jelly Bean that doesn't require an unlocked bootloader, I've been looking and haven't found one yet :( .

Also, FYI even if you were rooted, you couldn't install a custom rom without an unlocked bootloader. Rooted means you have the ability to access system files and settings. Most (all?) custom roms are rooted, but at least on this tablet, you can't install a custom rom without an unlocked bootloader, even for those who managed to get root before Jelly Bean.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] onemotodroid:
Okay, I spent some time this weekend looking for a root of build number 10.4.2.13 and was not able to find one.

Its looks like I am out of luck with unlocking the boot loader or rooting this tablet.

I will continue my research or return the tablet to BB.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] atchoum44:
Hey, just bought the TF300 on amazon, during Black Friday. C9 serial number too aaaand... impossible to unlock the device so far. Look like we are having the same issue as the Prime. Asus is terrible for it's driver/download website. A lot of time I took the wrong drivers for my laptop in it. So I'm not that surprised, they probably don't update the server part quickly and the late serial numbers might not be include on it, so we can just wait or spam asus facebook/twitter page...
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wetbiker7:
C9 serial here with unlocked bootloader. Mine came with JB, but I didn't update out of the box. From what I've been reading, a lot of the people who are having issues unlocking have update first before attempting to unlock.

C9.... serial here too and failed to unlock bootloader. Mine came with JB 4.1.1. Used the official apk from asus website. Can C9.. owners provide the proper way to unlock bootloader, if there any ?
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Malobestino:
With which firmware came?

I recently bought one (CA version) that came with 10.4.2.17 firmware, but I'm waiting a few months before unlocking (for warranty purpose).

I would like to install the new .18 firmware, but first I want to be sure that it will not compromise the chances of a future bootloader unlock
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thrutheeyes:
Am I correct in saying that if you unlock the bootloader, there is no way you can go back to original state and trick Asus if you need to repair?
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] atchoum44:
Nope, I tried before and after uprading it. Came with the .13 firmware, tried with it first. So apparently it's not serial number related, or not only. This seems to be happening with some Prime and TF700 too. Apparently, you can send your tablet to RMA and they unlock it. But it came back still locked for some people (read that on XDA).
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] reffu:
You are correct. Once you unlock it, it is (so far) impossible to re-lock. In addition, even if you could re-lock it, the unlock tool records your serial number and uploads it to Asus, so they have a record on their server of who unlocked their tablet.

---------- Post added at 11:26 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:21 AM ----------

The one thing I'm curious about is that the serial number on the bottom of my tablet doesn't match the serial number in the settings menu. The one on the bottom of the tablet is a C9 and the one in Settings->About Tablet->Status is a C8. I can register my tablet on their site using the C9 serial, but if I attempt to use the C8 serial it tells me my serial number is invalid. (I've made sure my O's aren't 0's and vice-versa). Also, mine shipped with 10.4.2.9 and I've tried it both before and after upgrading my firmware.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wetbiker7:
I honestly don't remember what it was before I flashed everything. After flashing a ROM and kernel, it's says 10.4.4.18.

Hmm, I wonder why some will unlock while others won't then? I got lucky then.:D
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] reffu:
It still can, and likely is, serial number related. I think you meant it's not firmware version related in your post. Firmware is what version of the OS you have (e.g. 10.4.2.17 or 10.4.2.18) while serial number is unique to your tablet and doesn't change when flashing new firmware.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gravis502:
I've sent an e-mail to Asus support, that demanding help for unlocking my device. Let's see what develops...
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] c5vette211:
I wish I would have read this prior to buying mine. I have a c9 and received the same error message when trying to unlock. I would have tried to buy a different serial. It came with 10.4.2.17 and have tried every back door to unlock this but no avail. I am with atchoum44 lets just spam their FB :D
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ivanthec:
The oddest thing happened to me the other day. I too have a C9 serial that would not unlock. I got so mad when Asus suggested I send it in, and that I opened up the unlocking app and hit the unlock button a million times until it froze on 'please wait'. I had to open the task manager to end the task. I'm still pissed off and opened the app for round two. this time it didn't give me a network error but prompted me for my Google account and activated successfully. Weird.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] radiomaiden:
just posted this in another thread: i bought a new tf300t last week, upgraded from ics to jelly bean and had the same network error issue with the unlock tool. then i registered my tf300t on the asus homepage and send an email to asus tech help to add my serial no to their database in order to use the unlock tool. this monday i tried the unlock tool again and i got it to work. i was also asked to provide my gmail account details and when i did my tf300t was unlocked.

im waiting in Q to chat with ASUS about this issue right now, number 34, I started at number 60 and that was an hour ago! I really hope they can figure this out this time
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wetbiker7:
Pretty sure that you're going to need to register the device with Asus before you can unlock the bootloader. Some have had to wait up to 3 or 4 days before their bootloader could be unlocked. 4 days is the longest I've heard of anyone having to wait.

I finally got thru to chat after over 2 hours and the guy said I have to RMA, I showed him this thread and pointed out that some users were able to unlock after providing their serial number or mac address and having it added to the database, he said that the post i was referring to was in cambodia but that since I am in the US that my only choice is to RMA, but he also said I would only have to pay one-way shipping charge and that is all. Guess I will send it in and see what happens
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wetbiker7:
Yeah, I had read where the people from Asus had said that they screwed up a bunch of the serial numbers and the only way to fix the issues was to send it in. Personally, I would wait a couple of days and try to unlock it before sending it in. I have a feeling that quite a few of the tablets they are telling people to send in really don't need to be.

As I said earlier, the longest I've heard of someone having to wait to unlock after registering their tablet was 4 days. If I still wasn't having any luck after the 4thy day, I would send it in.

[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tjy8tim:
what is AST? so they want to physically rewrite the number that's in our tablet? why can't they just update whatever they have in their file? someone should figure out a way to root without unlock just like in ics...sigh =(
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gravis502:
I have the same problem as i mentioned before and i contacted with asus service and they told me the same thing about mac addresses, ithink this is completely asus' mistake to write our mac addresses all messed up.

---0---

after minutes of this reply, i headed over to Asus' TF700T Download page (http://www.asus.com/Tablet/ASUS_Transformer_Pad/ASUS_Transformer_Pad_Infinity_TF700T/#download) and dl'ed unlocking to to my tf300t (running jb4.1.1 pre installed in factory) and succesfully unlocked my tab. I don't know how this was happened. I contacted with asus about our famous unlock issue and gave them my wireless mac number. then they told my mac addr. was wrong and told me that there mac1 and mac2. So this might be a correction by asus engineer for my mac, or it can be from tf700t's unlocking apk.

so i recommend you to give it a shot with tf700t's unlocking tool, and if you still can't unlock e-mail asus about your situation and told them there is a lot of people facing down with this issue :)

[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] atchoum44:
Hey everyone, I

might

have found a solution, at least for some of you.

I bought the TF300T on amazon on black friday. It came with Jelly Bean. It's one of those "C9" that wasn't able to be unlocked.

I'm not sure that it's what I did that solve the problem or if Asus finally updated it's database but it's worth trying.

I wasn't able to unlock for one month and a half and I never had the OTA. I just then registered my product on the asus website wondering "hey, if I register, maybe it will force them to create an entry for my serial or whatever".

I tried to unlock just after I registered and it failed again. BUT, i tried today and it worked. (5 days after more or less). It's a shame I didn't tried 12/24h after but still, it might work for other people.

Please, try and add a post if my trick works for you!
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Freebob94:
Exactly the same for me and Asus said with a invalid serial number, no warranty, I'm bored with that.

I must have done something really bad. I tried to use the unlock tool after an OTA update. Now any time I try to start the unlock tool app, it simply freezes and the tablet reboots. This has been happening when I start some apps now as well. It freezes then reboots. C9.+ serial number here as well.

[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crunchthem:
1. Register your Product on Asus Page. Then try again after 1-2 days

2. if step 1 is not working. Call the Asus support and tell them what exactly is the Problem. Also tell them your Wlan mac adress und your Serialsnumber. They'll send it to the Taiwan HQ and thy'll fix after 1-2 weeks.

Don't send your Tablet to Asus because of an retarted support guy. Just try to reach another guy who wants to help you.

P.s. The Problem is that Asus made mistakes with some Mac adresses in their Database
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] agt7575:
I have the SAME problem. I sent it out on RMA, they replaced the motherboard thus locking the tablet again. When I called customer service to let them know about the issue and that it was a MAC ID issue (Asus had the original MAC ID listed for my tablet on their servers, not the new MAC ID of the new motherboard which is causing the error message). The tech rep stated that my serial number is listed as being unlocked, while the physical tablet is listed as being locked. THis means that no matter what ASUS does, I will no longer be able to unlock the tablet EVER AGAIN!! He stated that because their servers have my serial number listed as being unlocked, even if I ran the unlock tool I would get an error because the app won't unlock a tablet that is already listed as being locked... What a bunch of bull-crap... ASUS support is a complete and utter joke, and they have lost any future business from me or my family or friends. They have great products, especially motherboards, but their horrible customer service and practices are just too screwed up to overlook.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] guido.sarducci:

That this worked for me too. I have a TF300T with a C9 serial number, and was getting the "unknown error" message.

I just kept pressing the unlock button repeatedly, even after it was greyed out. The first time it didn't work, so I stopped the app through settings, tried again, pressing the unlock button repeatedly, and it worked! It's unlocked!

Has anyone been able to successfully unlock the Xperia T locked to Bell?

Hi,

I have a Rogers Xperia T and also tried two companies that failed, and then found one that succeeded, though it took 4 days to get the code.

http://unlock.canadagsm.ca/ was able to provide the correct code for me. They are more expensive, but if you need help their service is excellent compared to the others I've tried. (I am in no way affiliated with them, to be clear).

Unlock codes

My provider is MTS, their website says to unlock you just have to swap out your sim card and put in one from another provider, enter the code and you are unlocked (for free). Does this permanently unlock the phone? I know that my provider will unlock it for $50.00, I've followed search links and discovered $45 codes are avail - not worried about price - but what about reliability? This will make the process of flashing much more simple for us if it's been proven.

So after little research I found (unfortunately) the definitive answer I was not hoping for. Apparently sim-unlocking your phone is not going to unlock

your bootloader - noobie idea I had - so it does not get me very far down the road of customizations. Too bad, but I have faith in the creativity of the devs out there.

Buying them beer seems like a good idea.

Hey all,

This is the first time I post something.

Last weekend I upgraded my phone to CM 9.1

Phone specs:

Galaxy S2

kernel: ge9cef6c blinky-ghost

Cyanogenmod 9.1 stable

While installing I wiped out all caches etc..

Now ... when I play an app:

usually a 3D game. The game freezes so that no button works. I have to get the battery out of it.

It happened a couple of other times with non 3d apps too.

Can you help me?

Thanks in advance.
[General Questions and Answers] @Jonathan:
It seems like your kernel takes a lot of CPU usage. Make sure you are not overclocking anything and have good battery life. If this happens repeatedly, try flashing a official 2.3.3 or 4.0.3 rom (just search google)

Feel free to ask away!

Best of luck,
