How can I tell if I'm rooted?

I followed this thread:
http://forum.androidcentral.com/htc-evo-4g-roms-hacks/17766-how-full-root-evo-4g-mac-3.html
I went through all the steps and I'm exhausted since I spent like 2 hours doing this rooting process.
Now someone PLEASE tell me before I gouge my eyes out and skull **** myself if I achieved root.
Am I supposed to see a new icon indicating that I rooted? I don't see anything that says Super Agent but I followed those instructions to a T.
Right now I'm restoring my apps back on and I'm going to be very pissed if I'm thinking what I'm thinking. By the way I searched Google and someone on a forum said that if you cab download wireless tether from market then you're rooted. I was able to download it but does that really mean I am or did that just apply to that particular android phone?

open up a terminal or command line window.
run your adb program, with the following command line
mac
./adb shell
windows
adb shell
(or however you invoked it during the rooting process)
if your prompt looks like
Code:
#
you win.
else, you lose.
edit:
you'll only see superuser permissions if you install the app, not sure where to get it from as when i flash new roms they're preinstalled.
i suggest going on to flash a recovery image, so you can flash other ROMS with ease.

Thankfully I saw the # sign so that means I'm good. How do I go about starting to remove the apps I don't need anymore?
I have to research recovery roms because I don't have the patience to do it today.

just go flash a new ROM that has all the junk removed and save yourself the trouble.
i here there are programs that will do this for you as well, btu i dont know em off hand

1. Reboot in to recovery, so that /system will be writeable.
2. Launch an adb shell and navigate to /system/app:
Code:
./adb shell
# cd /system/app
3. Delete the programs you don't want by using the rm (remove) command:
Code:
# rm Flickr.apk
4. Reboot the device.
If you want to err on the side of caution, you can move the programs to your SD card, or your computer, so that you can restore them if needed:
Move to SD card:
Code:
./adb shell
# mkdir /sdcard/apkbackup
# mv /system/app/Flickr.apk /sdcard/apkbackup
Restore from SD card:
Code:
./adb shell
# mv /sdcrd/apkbackup/Flickr.apk /System/app
Backup to your computer:
Code:
./adb pull /system/app/Flickr.apk ~/Desktop/Flickr.apk
./adb shell
# rm /system/app/Flickr.apk
Restore from your computer:
Code:
./adb push ~/Desktop/Flickr.apk /system/app/Flickr.apk
Have fun!

Moving Power Manager Pro to /system/app

Long post but, hopefully an easy answer that someone can walk me through. I have fully rooted my EVO along with the NAND. I'm trying to move/install (?) Power Manager Pro into the /system/app folder to get full rights so it can turn GPS on/off. The website for the app says that I need to do the following:
After root is obtained you need to install the application into the /system/app directory so that it has enough permission to change the location settings. Open a Terminal Emulator app and execute the following command to copy the application to the sdcard (for the full version the name of the application is /data/app/com.acme.android.powermanagerpro.apk):
su
cp /data/app/com.acme.android.powermanager.apk /sdcard/PowerManager.apk
If you can't find the application in /data/app try /data/apps-private/
Then, un-install Power Manager from the device
Execute the following commands in the terminal emulator to remount the /system directory as read/write and to install the application into the /system/app directory:
su
mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system
cp /sdcard/PowerManager.apk /system/app
If you prefer to use adb from your computer, execute these commands:
adb remount
adb shell cp /sdcard/PowerManager.apk /system/app
Several users have utilized root explorer from the Google marketplace to simplify this process.
I have Root Explorer so I would like to do it through there is possible, but I can't seem to get it to work without it getting a FC when it opens after trying to move it.

hmmm, it might be force closing because the system is not mounted as read/write. Never used the app before so I dont know. But you can search the market for terminal emulator and then follow the steps the showed above. It looks like it should work.
...or you could do it through adb shell if you are connected to your 'puter

Trying it in Terminal Emulator with no luck... Wondering if the path is right or if i need to change that? It says:
xport PATH=/data/local/bin:$PATH
$su
cp /data/app.acme.android.powermanagerpro.apk /sdcard/PowerManager.apk
cp: not found

the path seems right (I assume you mean export and not xport). I dont think you need anything special on the rom to access cp through terminal emulator...
Have you tried hooking it up to a computer and entering it through adb shell to see if that works?

[MOD] 3-Click QuickTempRoot TerminalMOD :/

Alright all,
I know there's another thread about "easier" method, but this is easiest for me. 3-Clicks after installation.
I was really tired of typing the same crap over and over after rebooting just to get my temproot back to do more testing/playing.
So I redeveloped this to be quicker/easier upon reboot. Mainly I altered the Term app to be have a scripted start-up on the 1st 3 launches.
I also updated the su/Superuser combo with ChainDD's latest stuff.
Here's how it works, after it's installed.
3ClickTempRooter said:
1) You run the terminal app once, wait a few seconds and it disappears.
2) You run the terminal again, wait for it to FC.
3) You run the terminal a final time and receive root.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Now on each reboot, it will be simply 3-clicks (running terminal app 3 times).
Finally ... any executable script placed in /data/local/tmp will be in the path of the new terminal mod. This makes running other scripts very easy.
Installation
Download the attached QuickTempRooter.zip and place it in a directory and unpack it.
Turn on USB debugging and install through adb ...
Here's the adb installation snippet ...
Code:
adb kill-server
adb push su /sdcard/su
adb push Superuser.apk /sdcard/Superuser.apk
adb push busybox /data/local/tmp/busybox
adb push rage /data/local/tmp/rage
adb push root /data/local/tmp/root
adb shell chmod 0755 /data/local/tmp/busybox
adb shell chmod 0755 /data/local/tmp/rage
adb shell chmod 0755 /data/local/tmp/root
adb shell 'pm uninstall com.android.term'
adb install Term.apk
Has made my life wayyy easier when playing with this phone while we wait for the real-deal!!!
Hope you enjoy!
NOTES
If you get a permission denied on the ''adb shell 'pm uninstall com.android.term' '' ... this is normal if you don't have a terminal already installed or have an alternate terminal app (using a namespace other than com.android.term.
If you have another Terminal App installed, you may want to uninstall it first, to avoid confusion.
Also, you may need to reboot after the initial installation for it to work properly!

ummmmm.....Enomther??
Did you get a G2 already?
Great to see you helping out with this

Great to see you here man! Trying this now can't wait to get themes rolling once we get permanent root!

If you didn't already have a terminal app installed that error is normal. Also you may need to reboot once after the initial installation for it to work properly.

Sorry, this is my first Android. I came from WM and I was pretty good with it.
I've searched XDA, Youtube, and web to ADB and SDK. I've downloaded it and it's installed. The only thing I don't get is when you said to
"Download the attached QuickTempRooter.zip and place it in a directory and unpack it."
You mean place the extracted files into the sd card correct? That's why the command is "adb push su /sdcard/su".

No, he means on your PC. You are running adb to push files contained in the zip to your phone.

Like this?

If you have better terminal, you can also add the rage and root to specific keys.

At this command I'm getting told "failed to copy 'su' to '/sdcard/su': Read-only file system"
adb push su /sdcard/su

Good work, Temp root in like 5 seconds

Quick question, ok I was able to get root for a few mins, then it went away I guess I have to have the terminal always open or ignore so my taskiller doesnt terminated it?

Don't use task killers. (IMHO)
But I tend to have to reboot every once in a while to keep root in tacked within terminal but all my apps seem to stay with su permissions until reboot (or sometimes 12 hours)

But this Videocon V20 is more stuborn than a MULE ........:crying:
Anyone out there Can help me ?
PS: I have been able to get ADB Shell access and I get a "$" prompt and not "#" prompt, this means that - su will not work.
All the above applications are able to push - superuser application however the phone is not rooted.

Download z4root.apk(google it!!!) And extract the apk with your fav. Decompression tool.Go to res>raw
And you will find a file named rageitagainstthecage .
Now make a folder in C drive of any desired name (make sure that folder name doesn't contain space) and place the above file in this folder.
Now path should look like this:
C:\(foldername)\ rageitagainstthecage
Now attach your phone to pc with adb enabled and start command prompt and type the following commands and press enter after each command:
cd ..
cd ..
cd yourfoldername
adb push rageitagainstthecage /data/tmp/local/
adb shell "chmod 775 /data/tmp/local/rageitagainstthecage"
adb shell "./data/tmp/local/ rageitagainstthecage"
Now the exploit will run and after the completion of exploit,restart your phone and again attach the phone to pc and the you can push the su binary and app in following way(assuming that you have su and Superuser.apk in your folder located in c drive)
adb shell "mount -o remount rw /system "
adb push su /system/bin/
adb push Superuser.apk /system/app/
adb shell "chmod 775 /system/bin/su"
adb shell "chmod 775 /system/app/Superuser.apk"
Now time to check if ir worked
adb shell
su
If you see "#" instead of "$", your phone is rooted!!!!
BEST OF LUCK!!!!

A simple solution if you are lucky
Well i have one simple solution for you .. I dont know A20 is mediatech or not . So if it is an MTk device then all you have to do is pull the stock recovery from your android and then provide it here
then i will compile a CWM bessed on that and then you will have CWM on your device and u can flash any su binary in zip and you will find it in my post ...
So if you r lucky then u will get the both CWM and root .. Otherwise bro without device i cant help ..
To pull your recovery type this in adb
adb shell
$su
#dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p13 of=/sdcard/recovery.img
you will have ur stock recovery in sdcard . it might be around 6.144mb or close ... but not greater that 10 mb

[UNIVERSAL GUIDE] Root Any Android Device Manually !

THIS GUIDE NO LONGER WORKS BECAUSE ANDROID ISN'T WHAT IT USED TO BE BACK IN 2013-14.
PLEASE STOP WASTING TIME TO FOLLOW THIS OBSOLETE METHOD 1. PLEASE REFER ONLY TO METHOD 3​
The Ultimate Guide to Rooting any Android Device Manually !!!!​
Wanting to ROOT Your Phone but can't do Because Of No rooting Guides or want to learn to root any device ? Then , This Guide Is For YOU
OK So lets start....
**What You Need**
1.Your Unrooted Android Device.
2.ADB Drivers Installed On Your PC. If you Don't Have Download From Here :
Code:
adbdriver.com/‎
3. The Most Inportant Root Kit Made By Me (N'ayam Amarsh'e) - Download From The Attachment.
4.Strength And Courage 'Coz Rooting Voids Your Warranty... If You have a samsung device then Don't Worry Your warranty is gone forever... But if you own any other, maybe you can void it or maybe......
I've Written Android Device as ADV to make it more easy....
**Steps**
So you have the adb drivers installed let's go....
1. Open The root kit by Extracting The Rootkit with WinRAR....
2.Turn 'USB DEBUGGING' 'ON' in your ADV...
3. Connect your ADV to Your PC...
4.In the root kit Open Cmd.exe File ... [ IF YOU CAN'T OPEN CMD, GOTO C:/WINDOWS/SYSTEM32/ COPY CMD .EXE TO YOUR ROOTKIT FOLDER]
5. In CMD window Type the following command...
Code:
->adb devices *Your device will get listed in the window if it doesn't check your adb drivers or if you have followed the steps properly...
->adb push busybox /data/local/tmp
->adb push su /data/local/tmp
->adb push Superuser.apk /data/local/tmp
If you Succeed Move On ...
6.Then You need Root Shell Type :
Code:
adb shell
Note that you see a "$" sign in the command prompt. That means you are not in 'su' shell.
7.Next run the following commands in the shell to change permissions and get some limited privileges for the Superuser files:
Code:
->chmod 6755 /data/local/tmp/su
->chmod 755 /data/local/tmp/busybox
->chmod 644 /data/local/tmp/Superuser.apk
{Note}The names of the files are case sensitive!
8.Done ? Now You need to open a copy of linux which has nautilus... So enter your linux (I recommend using ubuntu 11.4) and type in the terminal (ctrl+alt+T)
Code:
->sudo nautilus
this will open nautilus with root privileges...
You can just boot it from USB so no hassle of installing it... http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/download-ubuntu-linux-11-04-iso-cd-dvd-images-natty-narwhal.html
Having your ADV connected with USB to PC switch it off and put it in download/recovery mode...

DEVICE OFFLINE?
! SOLUTION ! (click me)
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
9.In The Exploring Window navigate to
Code:
/data/local/tmp
and move/cut 'su' and 'busybox' to
Code:
/system/bin
...
10.From the tmp Folder you went earlier Move/cut 'Superuser.apk' to
Code:
/system/app
11.Now Reboot You ADV ... Congrats ! You're now ROOTED !
Many Users Are Having Problem with This Method, If you can't do the method 1. Try Method 2.
METHOD 2
PLEASE DON'T ASK ME ABOUT THIS METHOD, THIS IS JUST FOR A TRY, MY BROTHER FOUND THIS METHOD TO BE WORKING, I HAVEN'T TRIED IT YET!
This is linux based method, It's quite easy if you follow every step correctly...
You need to download psneuter, https://github.com/tmzt/g2root-kmod/tree/master/scotty2/psneuter
When you have it execute the following...
Code:
adb devices
Code:
adb push psneuter /data/local/tmp
This will copy the file to your device and now we'll execute it..
Code:
adb shell
cd /data/local/tmp
chmod 777 psneuter
./psneuter
Now You'll see
Code:
adb kill-server
adb devices
adb shell
now # will appear in place of $, or after typing $su.
Code:
# mount -o remount,rw -t rfs /dev/block/st19/system
# exit
$ adb push busybox /system/bin
$ adb push su /system/bin
$ adb install Superuser.apk
$ adb shell
# chmod 4755 /system/bin/busybox
# chmod 4755 /system/bin/su
# mount -o remount,ro -t rfs /dev/block/st19/system
# exit
$ adb reboot
Now your device will reboot and you can see SuperUser App in your app drawer...

that means you have not properly pushed the files into the directory.... Try installing adb drivers again and do the same steps...Good luck
When you open cmd just type ' adb devices' if your device gets listed then you can start if it doesn't check your drivers...

After uinstall all adb drivers and phone drivers comand prompt shows me a device code and status ofline. At the begining i install atached to therad package of adb drivers. But lately some where in Internet I find some update package of adb drivers. And there was the same sort of files like in your package. I put them there and replace and after that adb shows the device is working and status is online but your guide still does not work. Question is where is real problem ? I checked and Debug Mod is on, drivers are installed.

OK you will need to do it with Droid Explorer
OR

And in your guide need little correct. In step 9 should be /data/local/tmp not /UserData/local/tmp. Does are two diffrent folders. And before I think I do something wrong when all files be already on right place

Droid Explorer cant change folders premission too. Command prompt says : Read-only drirectory. I don't know what to do now.

Hi! First thank you for that guide. I rooted several devices but with a noname(10.1" A10 dual core) china tablet I have some problems so I hope your solution works.
I have some problems/questions:
1. Step 5: Are you sure it's:
Code:
adb push su /data/local/tmp
instead of
adb push su /data/local/tmp[B][SIZE="5"]/[/SIZE][/B]
I'm currently not able to look at the data folder but if I change the directions e.g to /test/local/tmp it just creates a "tmp" file and overwrites the file with every push command.
2. Step 6: If it's a $ it's not rootet, what should be there if it's rooted? I have a # there. Rootchecker says it's rooted since the beginning, but I cant access with superuser/supersu etc.
3. Step 8 doesn't work. I use a virtual box with ubuntu 13.10(Stinson: new is always better?) for the first time. With "sudo nautilus" I get the message that root access is not granted(failed to register client). I used "gksudo nautilus" instead... does that matter?
4. I can't connect my device to the virtual box. I tried to add the usb device but didn't work. USB Developer Android[0223] is in virtual box connected. However, I dont know where to find it in ubuntu. I'm a ubuntu noob sorry :/
5. Is there another way to get rw permissions?
Thanks in advance :good:

thankyou for information i think is hard for me

Very nice, ty

For Your First Answer You Need not to worry /tmp and /tmp/ are the same...
2.Have you tried typing 'adb shell' then ' su ' if yes there's your solution.... If not then you have problem with su binary or busybox....
3.You have an Ubuntu 11.4 .iso file so burn it to a blank disk and boot your live disk .... It should be all right then...
