how do i know if i am rooted? - EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I just used the Unrevoked to root my phone and after the last step, I am lost...How do I know if my phone is rooted and what do I do next???

Go to market and search for root. Download an app that requires root and if it works you are rooted.

I have a friend trying to root on mac and suggested this app. What exactly did you do make z4 work and did you do the permanent or temp version?
permanent and read the above. install superuser and then run z4root. easy peasy

[Q] Rooting sgh-t989 after ics update

can i root my sgh-t989 after i update to ics. will i still be able to use ics and just have the capabality to remove bloat and all root fucntions?
if you are a developer you probably can, but if aren't you have to wait for somebody to release rooted version of this rom
Since it isnt actually out yet, we dont know what will work to root with any certainty. You just have to wait.
thanks

You can root the new ICS ROM
It is rooted via the same old method used to root the original stock rom. you can get all the files either here on this site or from galaxys2root.com. the root site has a youtube video if you need a step-by-step hand holding.

Hiding root access?

I have Dixperia 2 rom with doomkernel and would like to do my barclays banking using there app! It requires a unrooted phone to work so my question is, is it possible to hide that I have root so the app works?

In Superuser there's a temp unroot option.

Why does it matter if its rooted or not? Does it detect it? And for an app to block root is a little pointless.

The barclays app will not install on a rooted device and exits as soon as it detects root access. Just tried the temp unroot option in superuser and can confirm to the OP the it works and the barclays app installs fine when using that option

I don't know if it will, but try.
Also, the newest SuperUser allows a temporary unroot, maybe just use that to access it.

S3 Root?

So I updated my Telus S3 to 4.3 a couple weeks ago, I used cf-auto root to root my phone. Then I installed SuperSU from the playstore and SuperSU enabled a Knox block feature, so yah I thought my phone was rooted because SuperSU was working perfectly fine. But then a couple of root features didn't work, even though it says that SuperSU has granted it permission the app still mentions "error, no root access". Any solutions? And please if you're not 100% sure that you're method won't brick my phone then don't mention it.
