Just got a used EVO, how can I easily tell if it's been rooted.
I just picked up a good used EVO from a guy and he claims that he rooted it a while back but did not install a custom ROM. The problem is that I can not tell if it is rooted. I know how to hold the volume down and press the power button, but I am not sure what to look for. Any tips?

su permission denied
I assume this means no huh? Well I have already DLed all the rooting stuff I need so I better get to work. I have already researched a few methods of rooting. Anyone have a suggested (preferably easier) method of rooting? I am running android 2.2 with build number 3.29.651.5 if that matters.

At the end the phones reboots and the flashed says 'Done. Recovery Image: ClockworkMod Recovery
I get SU permission now in terminal. I just can't seem to access clockworkmod now? Last edited by protomind; 11-03-2010 at 01:02 PM.

What does Clockwork say? Do you have Clockworkmod in apps?
