That's your problem, right there ;) Rooting and unlocking are two different things. You need to unlock to flash a custom recovery or ROM. You have only rooted. Do a search on unlocking using the Asus Unlock Tool. You will lose your warranty though.

Unlock / relock Bootloader ME301T

Hello all.

I've got a question concerning ME301T bootloader. If one can relock the bootloader in other devices why can´t one relock it in ME301T (just saying because the only posts i find regarding this matter is to say that one can't relock the bootlader). I'd very mutch like to unlock mine but the fact that the warranty is lost makes me not want to do it.

Regards

Artur
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sbdags:
You can't . It is encrypted by Asus and they hold the key. You inform them via the unlock tool so they mark your bootloader as unlocked in their database. Their is no relock tool due to encryption.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Arturhash:
So if there was a 3rd party bootloader unlock tool we should be able to unlock it and then relock it? Or would still be noticeable that once at any given time the bootloader was unlocked?

Regards

Artur
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sbdags:
Potentially anything is possible but it is extremely unlikely that such a third party tool will ever be developed. The transformer series has been around for 2.5 years and no ne has ever found away around it.

Just unlock and start enjoying your tab. ;)
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Arturhash:
Ok thanks. You know...the thing is that this is my 2nd ME301T the 1st fell no the floor and broke the digitizer, since ASUS charged me €200 for the repair i decided to buy another one and keep the other for spare parts. So right now i'm not realy in the mood of loosing the waranty, never the less i took an extra precaution this time and bought me an insurance covering drops and spils from Square trade for 2 years.

I realy love to experiment other ROMS but i do it in my SGS all the time i thing i will wait for a while and maybe one of these days i'll do it.

Thanks again for the reply.

Hi,

I have a little noob question - is it possible to install custom recovery (TWRP) without unlock bootloader (without loosing warranty)?

E: as on the TF101

Get root with motochopper and then with terminal, or adb:

su
dd if=/sdcard/twrp.blob of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p4

This is bad idea?
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] julle131:
No. Modifying recovery requires unlock.

Does anyone have an idea on how to get my 2 Windows 7 computers to recognize the tablet?

I've tried it all (or at least that's how it feels like) but at this moment I'm stuck after having unlocked the bootloader.

USB-debugging is on, I've tried 4 different cables on two different computers and it just don't want to "kick in" properly.

And without this connection I can neither get Motochopper to work or the new recovery flashed, right?

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance,

/gosa

BTW - this is the first time something like this happens to me after S-Off-ing desires, rooting Wildfire's, Samsung's & ZTE's - I just don't know how to move on from here...
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sbdags:
A good place to start is install the android sdk from google as it includes a usb driver. But also look on xda for universal naked drivers as well.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gosa:
Yeah, I already thought of that - already have it installed on one of the computers, and I'll do the same thing with the other one this afternoon...

- But still - even without the drivers, shouldn't it at least pop up as "unknown device" with the computer complaining about not finding drivers?

Also tried to connect it to the computer here at work which is running Win XP - just to get some lifesign" out of the connection but that didn't do anything either..

(Maybe this should have it's own thread, but as we're not blessed with our own forum section yet... sorry about that)

It's a pity that I didn't try this before I unlocked the bootloader - the only thing I actually didn't try - because I guess that now I'm pretty screwed with regards to getting Asus to service it if there's hardware problems, right?

Another thing... there's no way to get through the whole rooting and/or flashing new recovery process without that usb-connection is there?

What I wanted to say with that last post was that the only thing this tablet can not do through the USB port is to connect to a computer...

- Just not the part with connecting to any of the computers I've tried. (Can add one Windows XP and one Ubuntu - Linux Mint 13 - computer to the list since yesterday)

Nothing. The device is locked and therefore it won't let you write to the staging partition or recovery partition to let you flash this.

got an interesting answer from ASUS Iberia today when I emailed them asking for advice (would it be worth having it fixed now that I blew the warranty by the unlocking bootloader or do I just have to live with it?)

Dear Costumer,

Is normal that you can't connect your Memo Pad with a PC, no matters the operating system, the cable or if you have install Asus sync or not; because is a limitation of the hardware on this model.

So if you want to share your files you would need to use a program like asus web storage or drop box.

You can download Asus web storage from the following link:

Hi,

I've upgrade my wife's ME301T last week with OTA rootkeeper and work well.

1. Update SuperSU binary to lastest

2. Delete old root backup if any by OTA rootkeeper

3. Backup root by OTA rootkeeper, then TEMP un-root.

4. Apply the OTA ( .29 )

5. Restore root by OTA rootkeeper and reboot again.

Here is my process and hope it can help others.

Hook up to fastboot and flash .25 via fastboot staging. That's what I did.

.29 was causing all types of issues. .29 is a real piece of ****.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gugutab:
Can you detail the process you did it?
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
download the .25 zip from asus

unzip it twice until you have a "blob" file

install the asus drivers (search the motochopper thread)

download the Android SDK

In the "Platform Tools" folder, there should be a fastboot file

I only know how to do this on mac, where I open terminal and do a "cd" to that directory

then I put the "blob" file into that folder

then I type: fastboot -i 0x0B05 flash staging blob

and it flashes the rom... wait like 10 minutes

then boot to asus stock recovery and do a factory reset

if you search this thread and the other me301t threads for some of the search words like "adb" or "fastboot" you will probably find better instructions... this has been disucssed before, so you may find more detailed guides if you dont understand what im talking about
