im assuming you mean that you want to root without unlocking the bootloader..
if you're on 4.0.2 or lower, you can, otherwise, you cannot root without unlocking the bootloader.

Questions about warranty

I have to send in the tablet to Asus for repair. Can they detect that I rooted, unlocked the boot loader, and installed a custom ROM if I flash the stock images and relock the boot loader?

No, they can't, as there are no tamper flags on the N7. The only Nexus device that uses tamper flags is the N5, but even those are easily reset.

Great info. Asus claims on the phone they can tell and that warranty will be voided. But many members here claim they've never had any issues with a rejection. Now getting their actual problems resolved is a whole other issue!

[Q] Unroot

Hello,
I'd like to ask if I use SuperSU method to root my phone if i'll be able to unroot it and therefore not losing my warranty.
Thank you

Choose unroot from app SU.

But won't I lose the warranty just for rooting?

No

You might for unlocking bootloader if Asus manages to find out a way to detect it, but not for rooting on a locked bootloader.

Nice : thank you all

I just sent in my asus zenfone for warranty repair. I also just unlocked my bootloader. The Sim card was not locking in on Sim 1. Lets see if they know that my bootloader is unlocked.

They have mentioned more than once that root access cannot be obtained on MM unless the bootloader was unlocked !
So, don't get hopes on something that cannot be done ?
