Hello!

Will this work with the new 3.2 version of honeycomb? I'd really like to root, but don't wanna mess anything up. Has anyone tried this method starting with 3.2?

Thanks!

Mike

[warn]This roots your Transformer and adds the Superuser app. It doesn't do anything else. In theory it should be easy to create a flashable file that reverses this, but for now assume this is permanent. We're not responsible if you screw anything up.[/warn]

The method is very easy provided you follow directions:

• Download THIS FILE
• Copy it to the microSD card (Not the internal storage)
• Power your Transformer down, and reboot while holding power + Volume Down
• Choose to boot into recovery (RCK)
• After the update flashes on it's own, the Transformer will reboot and you're rooted
• Delete the file from the SDcard

Will this be work on V 3.2

Hi All,

Android is new to me, will the root also works on a Chinese EeePad Transformer?
Just bought that on my vacation in China and they have their own market place

Just got my transformer. Running 3.2 and I would like to root. Will this method work, or is there another method?

Ditto the above. Just got my prize from the contest here and want to get my root on without bricking anything.

I greaty appreciate any help,

Razorclaw is the easiest method of rooting the Transformer. Just download and install the app, click root and you're done! It's that simple. Works on the latest 3.2.1 release of honeycomb.

New firmware released, version 8.6.5.21.
Kills the root.
Bummer.
Anyone know of a fix?
