Downgrading woes - Eee Pad Transformer General

Hi all. I have an unrooted US transformer and im trying to downgrade to .9 so i can root.
However, when i try to do this it gives me an android guy with an exclamation point. Also when i reboot it says error code 2.
I know i have all the right files and im not using another country's file.
Plz help!
Also im using windows 7 and my current build is 8.4.4.5
Thanks!

I am not sure which method/guide you are using but over the last few days an easier method has become available that may help you:
Nvflash unbricking released!. Even though the title mentions unbricking the instructions include installing all the rooting tools and a custom ROM.
If that is not what you need then you may want to follow this guide which includes instructions for downgrading:
[GUIDE] STOCK (8.2.3.9/8.2.3.13/8.4.4.5) to 3.1 (PRIME! v1.4) + Overclock!
Good luck

Doing it now. Thanks!
UPDATE: It works. Thanks a million.

Read this in one of the recent post

Although there we talked about T-Mobile tab, it is exactly the same as p1000
Sent from my GT-P1000 using XDA
I rooted and installed a custom ROM on the wife’s tab not long ago. Can't give you specifics as you build is different, and my way might be the best (still learning) but it worked.
Flash the latest firmware if you haven't got it already. Do this using Odin and the appropriate rom. Search the forums on how to do this. It's very important to understand how to flash with odin.
Root it. Do by searching for an appropriate root zip, boot into recovery and install. Or other option is to use the SuperOneClick root programme by ShortFuse. I think it works on the P1000. Again, search on forum for how to root. Good to search for “root” and the build number you have.
Find the rom you want and put a copy of it on the tablet somewhere. Reboot into recovery and install zip from location. Most custom rom's come with instructions on how to do this so read carefully.
I know it isn’t detailed but I hope it helps you.

So I wanna Root my phone, i need help!

I currently have a Samsung Galaxy S GT i9000M Model and I wanna root it so I can have the newest firmware and cool features etc...
I have Odin installed and I know how to make my phone is detected in ODIN via USB (in download mode)
Before going any further and destroying my phone I wanna know some step by step for rooting my phone.
Like , I know nothing of the process... Could someone provide some good recent tutorial with the newest (not Beta) firmware I can get ?
My phone is currently 100% Stock.
Let me know If you have any advices, or good links to provide me...
N/B. Obviously I did some researchs... All I found so far are tutorials that says like : Your phone must be already running X.XX version (which are not supported on the s1) and be Rooted. Nothing really helpful for my stock galaxy.
Thx in advance

Yeah for rooting I think its best to leave someone alone for that, if you can't figure out how to root the phone then you should prob not be messing with it in the first place.
Just read the sticky notes and they are pretty easy to explain how to do it.

I have a M version and i can tell you, it doesnt matter. All canadian models of phones are VERY close to international, so you can use all their guides.
So to root:
1. Download either devil kernel or semaphore .tar file from respective threads. Flash them under PDA in odin, no re-partition. Leave everything else.
2. Your phone will not boot, DONT WORRY. Since recoveries are packaged with the kernel on this phone, all we are after is the custom recovery. We dont need the phone to boot.
3. Download Cyanogenmod 9 nightly/rc2. They are virtually bug free and not beta.
4. Flash it from your custom recovery!
5. Now when you flash cm9, it will change your baseband. You will have horrid signal, so flash back to a KG3 modem. You can find it, there is a big thread. And if the modem says nexus s cm7/9, its okay, it will work.
6. Wipe Data/factory Reset from recovery.
7. Have fun with it

[Q] Problems with rooting P700 on v10c

Hi there,
I've been looking for a way to root my phone and found petrescu's rooting guide. He said there it was tested on V10 A,C, I. My software is v10c-DEC-07-2012, however the process stucks at "Waiting..." sign in the window.
What am I doing wrong? Debugging is turned ON and LG software installed ;|
Thanks in advance!
I'm not sure what Petrescu's guide is but I personally used the rooting method from this link and my L7 was rooted within less than 5 minutes!
Follow the link at the end of this website to unlock the bootloader then follow the link for installing CWM and you won't have any issue.
I haven't found a better guide than this so far...
This is petrescu's guide - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1906133
The rooting method is the same, even files package is identical. While rooting, the shell is stuck at "Waiting..." or a little further at "Waiting for /data/local.prop..."
I've attached the screen.
UPDATE: Posting again for visibility.
Apparently, rooting doesn't work because I have v10C local polish version and I need OPEN version of v10c. Can someone tell me how to flash this?

@Macors - why you don't update to newest software and then try to root??
In PL: Zrob poprostu update do najnowszej wersji softu i wtedy najnormalniej rootuj

Ok, I updated the phone to V20C ( Android 4.1.2 ) version. What is the method of rooting this software?
[EDIT] Finally rooted my phone with Framaroot app. Thanks for the "tremendous" support I guess.

[Q] Recent Bootloader Unlock and root access guides

Hello everyone, I'm a brand new member with a couple questions.
I have read many threads here and elsewhere and have recently found two possible sources of information to help me finally unlock my boot loader > backup nandroid > flash cyanogenmod. Profit.
My Droid Razr M has root access. System Version: 98.18.94.XT907.Verizon.en.US / Android JB 4.1.2 / Build Number 9.8.1Q-94
Wen I started, I got used to the idea of staying with JB 4.1.2. It has worked well over the year. And having root and Titanium Backup has given me great power over my phone.
I would like to ask if it is possible to both root and unlock the newer KK 4.4.2 using the these methods I have found and my phone.
First PrankCallPimp youtube guide states I need to flash from JB 4.1.2 to Verizon stock KK 4.4.2 using RSDLite
Second Mr. Blue Coat provides a better stepwise guide outlining root access and unlock procedures, but starting with KK 4.4.2. Very Complete Blog.
I have assembled all of the files these sources suggest to have on hand during the project.
Additional questions. Is PrankCallPimp's method to flash to KK 4.4.2 using VZW_XT907_4.4.2-KDA20.62-10.1_CFC_1FF.xml files in RSDLite correct? His video cuts out after a while. After flashing KK 4.4.2 the phone will be similar to a factory reset and be susceptible to OTA updates. Currently I use Voodoo OTA to prevent updates. Should I reinstall Voodoo OTA to prevent Verizon pushed updates or go from there to root access and boot loader unlock procedures?
I have never liked following a youtube guide and wonder if there is a printed version I could review before starting. Also I installed RSDLite and my phone can be detected by the program.
I think if Mr. Blue Coats guide is acceptable to everyone, I could follow it with no problems.
What I'm worried about is giving up my currently profitable root access on JB 4.1.2 to go to KK 4.4.2.
It seems that if I really want an unlocked boot loader, I must take KK 4.4.2
If these two guides work, with someone's help, I would be happy to join them into a single clear guide to post here.
I lack the experience most of you have so I'm reaching out with these questions before I even consider going through with this.
Thanks All. Ps. I'm in no hurry.
Read this thoroughly
Thank You
Thank you for the ultrafast help!
There was my answer: 4. RESTORING / UPGRADING STOCK FIRMWARE.
And all the additional tools required for root access and boot loader unlock.
