Unable to Root, please help - Asus Eee Pad Transformer Prime

Ok I have an Asus Transformer Prime and at first it was rooted but I messed around and unrooted it using "SparkyRoot" When I try to Root it again with SparkyRoot, it would say "Exploit still not found". Super User is installed on it but it not rooted. Then when I try to use viperMOD_Prime_v4.6 I'm still unsuccessful. It would say things like "Failed to copy..",Unable to chmod.." "No such file or directory" and "/system/bin/sh:/data/local/mempodriod.bin:not found"
What is wrong with my prime, why won't it root?.....it have a custom rom by the name of CyanogenMod9. How can I fix this problem?

Boot into Recovery and re-flash SuperUser

If you have a custom recovery then just flash SU again from there, if you don't then boot into fastboot and flash a recovery then use it to flash superuser.
twrp has a thread in the development section, check it out and follow directions to install recovery

Why would I install SU again when its already install and working. My problem is that I can't get my tablet to root.

100% root access?

i'm quite confused. I believe my phone is partially rooted. I installed SuperSu but it says that i do not have the Su Binary installed. under root checker it says that supersu is not installed but busybox is. I successfully installed Root Explorer and am able to view system files but not edit them.
anyways, i got a verification error when trying to flash CWM-supersu in recovery. I followed al the steps and downloaded all the required recovery.img files etc. I am tempted to flash a custom rom. but afraid if it gets locked up during the process, as there is no back up option with the stock recovery.
Any suggestions?

Update the binaries in superSU settings or reinstall root with CF-Root with Odin, see item 1 in my signature.

Yes, flash CF-Root with Odin.
Update your busybox to latest version.then update the su..it will work
Then cwm problem can be solved by using a manual cwm(new cwm from someone)...

Help booting TWRP

I rooted my Nook using the method here. I then downloaded Goo Manager though the app store and installed TWRP recovery. If I choose "reboot recovery" in Goo Manager, it will grant SU access and reboot, however it will not boot in to TWRP. it will just reboot the Nook normally. Then I powered down normally and now my Nook won't boot at all! It just shows the splash screen and shuts off or bootloops if i plug it in. What's up?
Edit: I tried doing the root method over again to unbrick it. I could boot in to recovery but the tablet still won't boot after I flash.
Unfortunately I can't help you. Just give my view that whenever I have tried TWRP there has been issues. EIther "not just doing the job" which is annoying but not much more. But also getting stuck in bootloop. When that happened to me I stumbled on the repart.im recover image that put my Tablet back to "out of the box" condition. I ran it and after that I have used CWM without issues.
Hopefully someone will come along with a better answer to you.

How did you flash CWM? I can't find any flashable files anywhere. Did you do it through Rom Manager or something like that or did you download a file and flash it through a bootable SD recovery?
Back when I origianlly did it I did it like I outline in this post (under C): http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2081981
Nowadays I do it differently though, but that process should still work.
GooManager does not flash the right recovery image for some root methods. The Nook Tablet one has acclaim in the name, and when I rooted mine, I realized it tried to flash a build for blaze. I just booted from a CWM SD to install my ROMs, and then flashed TWRP to internal using fastboot.

Fastboot is a tool in the Android SDK that can do a lot, including flashing a recovery.
Steps to use
Make a Ubuntu 13.04 virtual machine
Open Terminal
Put in : "sudo apt-get install android-tools-fastboot"
Install CyanoBoot if not already
When booting Press n in cyanoboot
Choose start fastboot using buttons
Plug into computer and hook up to VM
Download TWRP internal 2.4.3.0 from iamafanof.wordpress.com
Open terminal
Type cd Downloads
Type ls
Look for a file that starts with twrp
Type fastboot flash recovery then type the file name of the twrp file
Done

[Q] No SU binary installed.

Really didn't want to make a new thread about this but honestly people just jumped to conclusions without being helpful in my previous thread.
Long story short I'm trying to manually get 4.4.2: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2664561
I saw that I needed to get s-off, which requires root. Bootloader was already unlocked and so did everything here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2273376
I installed CWM. It said to install a superuser tool so I installed SuperSU.
"You're not out of the woods yet! The stock kernel is system write protected, so you still can't modify it (changes won't "stick"). You'll have to flash a custom rom or a kernel if you want stock instead." was the next line. <-- I saw that message. Installed a kernel that he recommended: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2255900
After reboot I get SuperSU error: There is no SU binary installed and SuperSU cannot install it. If you just upgraded to Android 4.3, you need to manually re-root- consult the relevant forums for your device etc.
Can anyone help me get the proper SU Binary installed? Not a beginner to rooting as I've had had several previous phones before. Never encountered something as annoying as this.
On 4.3, 3.17.502.3.
I had the same issue when I installed 4.4.2 on my international One.
What I done to root was;
- downloaded SuperSU v1.80 zip from here.
- download SuperSu from the Play Store
- in SuperSU, select the option to install binaries via TWRP/CWM. (If it doesn't reboot to recovery, manually enter recovery)
- flash the supersu v1.80 zip and reboot
- open SuperSu and install the binaries using the normal option.
That then enabled my root. I'd tried quite a few different variations and this was the only method that worked for me.

Thank you! Although I just managed to installed a custom ROM and managed to get root.

I flashed the Recovery_Cingular_US in fastboot. Unfortunately I'm unable to boot into stock recovery. I've been told right after you enter recovery from bootloader you press all three buttons simultaneously?
Is there a way to get into stock recovery from fastboot? Or better yet install the ROM from fastboot?

You seem very confused about the whole rooting process ... what was the point in flashing the stock recovery ? Are you trying to install the OTAPkg.zip ?
what Rom are you wanting to install and whats flashing stock recovery have to do with it ?
Well, if you looked at the thread I linked, you'll see that it says to flash a stock recovery file in order to install the OTAPkg.zip

I wrote the thread you linked too
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2659374
and yes it is necessary to have stock recovery to take an OTA, but your post didn't mention taking OTA it said you had no SU installed.
to get into stock recovery
boot to bootloader
choose recovery
wait for black screen, hold vol up and then power
you will see something about sdcard fail .. ignore it till the menu comes up
then choose to flash OTAPkg.zip from sdcard

Update unrooted phone

So I got the 5.12.10 update for the weekly developer ROM and it installed stock recovery over TWRP and unrooted my phone. The first time I rooted I managed to flash TWRP with stock recovery, but it isn't working this time. I've had a lot of trouble trying to install via ADB drivers. Help please?

Did you rename TWRP to update.zip and put it on the root of the internal storage before flashing? If yes and it still failed, you'll have to give us a bit more info as to why it failed to flash (any error messages f.e.?). Should be fairly trivial to flash TWRP and SuperSU

It wasn't too difficult the first time, but the recovery seems to be using some sort of signature on the ROM's. All it tells me is that "Install update.zip failed! update.zip signature verification failed." It is named update.zip on the root of internal storage.

Hm, from what I've found on the miui forum, you're not the first one having this issue. These are the "possible" solutions I've gathered from a couple of threads.
1) Flash TWRP using fastboot (rename twrpxxxx.zip to recovery.zip and place it in the same folder as the fastboot executable):
Code:
fastboot oem unlock
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
2) Update your current ROM (stable/developer) to the latest version if that isn't the case yet and try flashing TWRP again trough the update app
3) Flash TWRP using Flashify
1. download flashify app from playstore and give root acces
2. download img of twrp for redmi 2 note and put in your sd card (I prefer sdext root folder)
3. Open flashify, select "recovery image", find the img file you've downloaded
4. confirm flash, wait until it's done
4) Re-download a copy of TWRP or use a different one (like this one for example)
Let me know how it went..
So I tried Flashify and every time I tried to use it, the app froze right before/after selecting the recovery image. I did, however, manage to make the ADB and fastboot methods work on my desktop PC. I have no idea what I did wrong before, maybe the wrong ADB drivers? Anyway, I did get it working, so thank you

as stated above, i can't seems to find a workable root method for this device. i've already tried kingroot, kingoroot, and some unknown website that claimed have solution to root this device and make my phone restart and restart and restart.. luckily, my phone still can be saved.
im now at dead end. can someone help me how to root this device, and a clear tutorial since, im not good with android system..
thanks..

while waiting for someone to come out with help. I've found a website which have "unofficial" twrp.
https://unofficialtwrp.com/doogee-bl12000-pro/
I want a comfirmation if this site is trustworthy.
I've tried flash the twrp into my phone but it keep booting at recovery and can't boot into system.
I'm flashing using CMD like this:
fastboot oem unlock
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot boot recovery.img
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
and what the function of "fastboot flashing unlock"?
I'm thinking of using magisk to root my phone but I don't know what "stock boot image dump".
bump
seems that https://unofficialtwrp.com/doogee-bl12000-pro/ really work, but for my case, it's required me to decrypt password, while im not had any password.
after many times of rooting effort, it success. for those who have problem that occur to me:- BOOTLOOP at RECOVERY and RECOVERY can't read SDCARD or STORAGE
1. Root your phone using the twrp above
2. if bootloop to recovery, make sure you have sdcard and have supersu flash file inside it.
3. in twrp, go to wipe. and then format factory
4. go to mount and choose media sdcard
5. at the homescreen, go to install and then flash the supersu flash file.
6. done

well.. my mistake.. the TWRP is there. i dindt realize it.
