As stated, to root your device for the first time (100% original software) it's better to do it with Odin on your PC

you need to instal pccompanion first
Z4root don't work with latest firmware. You must use SuperOneClick from this thread:

Or with latest FlashTool you can root phone too
I rooted with flashtool, its great and has other options too.

Did you enable the USB debugging mode?
And X8 drivers already installed?

Mobile odin

For those who might have missed it, chainfire has released mobile ODIN, no need to use a pc to flash .tar firmware. The flash counter doesn't change and no triangle.

I ve made a review / tutorial about it and there is also a demo of it

If it actually works (unlike CWM which never works for me) it's a great idea!

The same as in Odin but the things are less likely to go wrong because you don't need USB drivers, cables nor windows computers which could freeze in the process

Backup and wipe?
Hi
Is it possible to use Odin Mobile to make a copy of your current ROM before flashing another one?
And do a flash using Odin Mobile Wipe my data, settings etc?

Good tool. I bought it.
Good tool, but unfornately it isn't possible to root a phone with Mobile odin. Is there any way to root a phone without USB cable ?
Ive used the pro version.. Flash from rooted stock 2.3.5 to 2.3.6 with root.remained and unchanged zero binary counter.. Thanks a lot!!
Thread cleaned of childish banta please respect each other and don't forget perceived text is often very different than spoken....
Not tried it yet as only used odin about 4 times since got phone to get ROOT and to deep clean.
Will have to give a shot as always handy to be able to flash odin too while mobile.

root your phone first using other method which Is using USB..after that, just use mobile Odin pro to flash ROM with root included..
Great app. I flashed WXKK5 on rooted XXKI4 without losing my root. Mobile Odin Pro V 1,25 works like a charm. "Ever root" feature is worth money spent.

I just want to root

Hey guys I want to root(only root) my tf300
I've been reading all day that u need to unlock bootloader and some that u don't have to unlock.
Does anyone know the best and easy way to only root tf300
I read something about debugfs but haven't tried it.
If u guys have a link for the root I'll appreciate it.

You do not need to unlock the boot loader to root.
I used the app in the following thread to root and am also on .30...

Yes. You need to have a PC. It is to be done in recovery mode IIRC.
Good luck with the rooting.

Sadly a PC is required with this method, but after reading all the root threads on here, I decided it was the easiest method and worked a treat for many
Just don't make the same error I did... don't connect the tablet to the dock and then USB on the dock to the PC, use the use charging cable supplied with the charger and connect the tablet to the PC via it, otherwise Windows wont see it...
Make sure you have the drivers installed too!
OK but how exactly u do this...I already downloaded the zip file on PC and pluged tablet...it installed drivers but last one ...says waiting for input and I got some options saying 1.locate and install driver
2.ask me again later 3. Don't show this message again
I click #1
Now what?

It said I had to restart computer so it could update this setting...where do I unzip/run the zip file?

Best to read the full thread I linked to, but make sure you have USB debugging enabled on the tf300 under developer options in settings...
From what I remember, I just unzipped the downloaded file to a folder, opened the folder and ran the .bat and it did the rest.
To get the correct drivers installed, I just installed Asus sync from the Asus support site, but make sure it is not running when you run the .bat.
I had the same issue, I think I installed the Android Development Kit and rebooted a couple times and it just decided to work after that. Soo, hope that helps?

Just did it, with the newest version from his skydrive account.
The only thing, I had to change USB mode from drive to camera-something in order for the ADB to detect the device..
My only reason to do it, was to get:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=25286407
and I must say it's like a totally new device... Finally I can use the browser on "heavy" sites without ANR's..
Got it root..thank guys!!!

Long story short, it makes the stock browser a lot faster, by using ram as cache instead of the disk.

Root user?

I have this app called "connectbot" that installed for SSH and telnet. Well I found that it has another option to use the local command prompt. A lot of the commands work. Even netstat, but when I try to go down to root level it says access denied! I figure its because I am not root admin, so I my questions are;
Is there a built in command line prompt built into the note 10.1 and all other droid devices? If there is how do I access it?
Also with the current command prompt I have access to or the installed cmd that I dont know how to get access too, is there a way I can become root admin so I can rename folders or change directories so maybe I can install apps to my sd micro card or use the ps3 controller using sixaxis with out flashing the rom on here or installing anything, but just maybe make a script or yse commands to become admin?
Thanks for all your help in advance
Thanks,
Note 10.1 user

I assume this doesn't work for 4.1.2 - I tried it after updating and it fails to root.

The reason I liked the ExynosAbuse way is that it's so clean and simple. No flashing things or installing CWM. I know it's a very special case (and not even the main reason for the app), but still...
I found the new bootloaders on the latest JB release give you a custom status and raise the flash counter to 1 if you have used the exynos exploit to gain root.
Not good if you have an allshare cast dongle as it needs "official" status to work...
Gaining root through CWM, using triangleaway and then reflashing stock recovery left me with with no raised flash counter and an "official" status.... Even after using Mobile ODIN to upgrade to the latest German or Arab Emirates JB.

That's all well & good but you still haven't answered my question as to whether or not vroot was ever or still is banned from XDA.I won't be needing your help in rooting my device, good day..
Both KingoRoot and VRoot were at one point banned from XDA as they did not uphold the license agreements that came with some of the exploits used. In addition to that both root methods used to collect IMEI numbers and store them on a server for "statistics".
However, once they were made aware of our concerns both companies have since fixed these issues and are no longer banned from XDA.
