I performed the root instructions on the main page of this thread. I go to settings and it says I have the new kernel installed. Is there another way to check and see if it is truly rooted? I have been trying to uninstall programs using ConnectBot but the commands are not working so I think maybe my phone is not rooted correctly. After I did the root instructions all my apps, phone numbers and texts were still in the phone. I was under the impression all of this would be wiped out?
