Bootloader unlock
|
Even though the fastboot oem asus-go output says that fastboot oem unlock confirm should be executed, the last command is correct |
If you can't access ADB, press Vol Up + Pwr from the off-state to enter fastboot mode and skip to the last commands.
After running the first command, make sure to confirm the RSA key prompt on the device.
$ adb devices
$ adb reboot fastboot
$ sudo fastboot oem asus-go
$ sudo fastboot oem asus-go confirm
Rooting
Thanks to the 4pda community, a custom bootimage has been developed which contains a one-shot shell script that roots the device. Download the file here and run the following command while the tablet is in fastboot mode and has been unlocked already (possibly different path):
$ sudo fastboot boot root-z170c_cg.img
Notes
This x86 tablet has a Mali GPU, which is quite a weird combination. The Lima driver has not yet been tested on x86.
Downstream kernel
The downstream kernel can be downloaded from Asus, see the "Drivers & Tools" tab here.
For working 3D graphics, mainline would be required, but having a port with downstream could be used in the meantime.
