ASUS Transformer Prime gets rooted, here’s how to go about it


The ASUS EEE Pad Transformer was made available just a few days back and I have heard that it is  a hit everywhere and there are loads of people looking to buy it mainly because the first Transformer was a big success, the powerful quadcore processor coupled with Android 4.0 and a sleek design. We have just received news that it has been rooted already.

I have been using the Transformer 1 from quite some time now and love the device and software support given by ASUS. No matter how good the device is out of the box there are users who are unsatisfied and need to run applications which require root or need to flash a custom ROM, though there are no custom ROMs available right now,  the first step of getting the device rooted has already been achieved. Read on to know how to go about it. This methoda can also be used on other ASUS tablets like the Transformer both 3G and WiFi only models and also the Slider.
