[Download] ClockworkMod Recovery Now Available For The Transformer Prime, CM9 Teased As Well

Posted by in Eee Pad Transformer Prime, News

Well, that didn't take long. Not hours after ASUS released a tool to unlock the Transformer Prime's bootloader, we get word that ClockworkMod Recovery is available for the quad-core tablet. According to the source link, the team has been working on CWM for the Prime for a while but without an unlocked bootloader, they couldn't test it. Now that the device is wide open, it's time to get your custom recovery on.

ASUS Releases Transformer Prime Bootloader Unlock Software, Now Available For Download

Posted by in ASUS, Eee Pad Transformer Prime, Mods, News

Early last month, it was revealed to much outcry that the Transformer Prime had a locked bootloader. Angry customers took to the forums to vent and started a petition to get Asus to change its stance. And just 24 hours later, that's what happened, with Asus promising an unlock tool down the road.

Today Asus delivered, with the unlock tool hitting the TP's support site:

Today, a new (apparently incremental) was released that brings things up to 9.4.2.14.

Posted by in Eee Pad Transformer Prime, News

While the quad-core Transformer Prime has seen its fair share of negative accusations, it's still the tablet of the moment. In fact, it's so sought after that ASUS is having a hard time filling shipments and it's still out of stock nearly everywhere (sound familiar?).

If you've been waiting around for one of the major retailers to get a new shipment in, then make ready the credit card - the 64GB version in amethyst grey just became (re)available on Amazon. If 64 geebees is more than you want, though, they should be getting more of the 32GB variant ...
