I will be showing you how to check your android phone if it is rooted or not, in my previous post i have talked about what root is, having understood what rooting is all about and if you do not know how to root your android phone use this link.

In this tutorial i will be showing you different application you will use to verify if your phone is rooted or rooted properly. There are several android application used to verify root but i will be showing you few.

1. Root Checker

This application is very easy to use and its considered as the most easiest method to use and verify if your device is rooted. One simple tap and you will immediately know if your android phone is rooted or not. Simply download the application from play store and open it.

Root Checker follows a very simple procedure in order to determine whether you are rooted or not. It simply asks you for superuser permission (or root access). That means that if you are able to grant that permission you are obviously a superuser, or in other words, your device is rooted.

2. Using a Terminal

We will now use a different application in order to accomplish the same thing and basically with the same way. Acces the Play Store and download any terminal application that you want. I will provide links of the most popular terminals application from pay store called Terminal Emulator for Android.

Open the application, simply type “su” and hit enter. The application will help you determine whether you successfully rooted your device or not.
