I just did some experimenting. I flashed the stock rom. Then I rooted the phone.
Even after rooting, I did not have the Superuser Permissions icon. I tried to run the "Wireless Tether for rooted users" and it says, "Unable to start tethering. Please try again!" The problem is the icon is missing. When I installed a custom rom that had the icon (like OMJ's) the program works fine.
Super easy way to figure out if you're rooted.
- Make sure USB Debugging is on.
Menu>Settings>Applications>Development>USB Debugging should be checked
- Connect your phone using "Charge Only"
- Open a "Run" window and type "c:\evo-recovery\adb-windows shell"
If you get a "$" you're not rooted
If you get a "#" you're rooted
See the picture below - (And I know I didn't use "view" correctly. I was just typing something to show the results on a rooted vs unrooted phone)
