You are rooted. To be sure just dl an app that checks fo rroot like Titanium backup.

That made me
Anyways, apart from this, like adam said, install an app like titanium backup from market to check for root. Install busy box, if not already installed.

rooting does not automatically enable sideloading. you will need to do that yourself, i recommend superoneclick

It shouldn't take more than a minute after u mount the device. Try reconnecting the phone, and/or rebooting both computer and phone. That should solve.

Delete Superuser.apk w/o mounting SD card

Help! I'm trying to return to as close to stock as possible so I can get a warranty replacement (SD won't mount, random shutdowns recently, Facebook/Twitter unable to sync). I was rooted, but have unrooted & done a master reset, but superuser.apk is still showing. How can I delete this without being able to mount to a computer via USB?
I've tried every USB port on my MacBook Pro & work Dell laptop and 2 different USB cords. No dice. Help!
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using XDA App

shoulda removed before un-rooting... but still
pretty simple. do a factory reset. or use Odin3's 1 click (NOT Odin3 flasher) to restore it to factory At&t.

but at the same time the dumbass at the store wont know what superuser is. return it anyway, Samsung will just test and wipe it anyway

LOL haha haha

ok there might be one or two.. but they will smirk at you.

Superuser app should go away if the phone is unrooted.
Unroot your phone again. I had to return a phone with a dead USB port and had to do this as well. I downloaded One Click Root/Unroot, and from the download, took the "unroot.zip" package, downloaded to my phone (email to self, dropbox, etc), renamed it "update.zip", and "reinstalled packages" in Android Recovery.

Reroot, delete it with root power, unroot.

Thanks for the responses, folks. Most of the research I found said to reroot/delete/unroot, so I'll try that. Easiest method I think I have available is the update.zip packages from the One Click Root/Unroot program. Will update after work today when I get a chance. Thanks again!

Thanks!
Thanks to everyone. Rerooted, deleted the apk & unrooted again. Looks like I'll be venturing out in Denver's icepocalypse to AT&T/Best Buy to try for a replacement after all.
Oh, and +1 Trusello! I may be an unabashed noob, but I know a lot more than any AT&T rep I've come across.

Odin/Rooting Problems

Okay before I get all the "Learn to google" or "Use the search function" let me just go ahead and say, I've searched all over the place before posting.
Okay I recently flashed my phone back to stock to get rid of a few problems. I tried to root with one click root and it failed when I tried to test it with sending the su command so not only was it not rooted it wouldn't allow me to use third party downloads So I am now trying to flash it back to stock again. Now Odin won't recognize my phone at all when its in download mode. I've tried reinstalling drivers and everything and it's like when I use Odin once it won't work again without reinstalling the drivers again.
It's hard to explain my exact problem but basically it's like the drivers keep resetting themselves or something where Odin won't detect my phone. And secondly my one click root no longer seems to work.
Any help would be greatly appreciated, this is getting very frustrating.
Edit: Now I am getting the "More than one device detected" error on the super one click.

You should try superoneclick (SuperUser) - It has never failed me
Also, you do not need to be rooted if you're on stock 2.1 Eclair - You can simply change the name of the ROM to update.zip, go into recovery and reinstal package.
As for Odin, I don't know what to suggest other than you could try using the non-one click one.

a) who said one click root will enable 3rd party apps
edit, you do want super one click root as stated above if you dont have that get it. the thread is by clshortfuse and usese the rage against the cage meathod, works on every phone
b) you need busy box before comands work, it is in the market
c)i dont know what your odin problem is, does the box turn yellow when you plug in the phone with in download mode? is this odin one click? odin one click+3button fix? odin files without bootloaders plus full odin? what version of odin? what series number is the phone under the battery? 1006?1007?ect...

Well the problem with moving the update.zip file manually is that my computer will no longer detect my phone regardless what mode my phone is in. And I was using superoneclick
Edit:
A) The Super one click root allows the option to enable non market apps, which has previously worked in the past but doesn't any more.
B) Can't get busybox without rooting
C) SGH-I897

Then it's most likely your computer and not your phone.
Try another usb port, cable;
unistall and reinstall the drivers;
restart your computer.
If none of these work, try on another computer.
After that, it could be the usb port on your phone.

Could I get a link or quick guide on how to uninstall and reinstall drivers.

lol it is quite simple but I can't help you more than this as I'm at work

Actually, it was the fact that my front USB port was the problem. I used one of the back ports and it seems to be working. Wow I feel like an idiot haha.
Anyway thanks for the help!

lol What are you doing to it?
Hehe, kidding
Umm - Try a different Odin.. Odin3 one click worked for me before.
You can try a non-one click Odin as well, sometimes it works when the other doesn't.

You don't have to connect to your computer either to flash a rom. download a rom with your phone ... Rename THAT update.zip on the phone ... Boot into recovery reinstall packages ... Its probably your computer like was said not the phone.

I reinstalled drivers, still not working. Any ideas?

Ummm when was the last time you made a restore point on your pc? Restoring from a few days prior worked for me when nothing else would, although it was just the dl mode driver that broke in my case ... You can't get it recognized at all ... But still woth a shot.

the latest version of AIO (3.0) uses heimdall instead of odin. i would recommend it

Okay downloaded the AIO tool box, looks pretty solid from what I can tell, will update to see if this fixes my issues.

Well I rooted with the toolbox and I when I try to run root required apps it says that my phone is not rooted or I haven't accepted superuser permissions. I do not receive a notification to accept these permissions however it does appear superuser is installed.
On the bright side I got all my drivers set up correctly.

[HOWTO] Root (via application)

You'll need:
* GingerBreak v1.20 (download)
Instructions:
1. Download APK and copy it to your phone.
2. Go to settings > applications and activate unknown sources.
3. Go to settings > applications > development and active usb debugging.
4. Open a file manager, go to where the APK is located, click it and install.
5. Go to applications drawer and run GingerBreak, pick Root. Wait for reboot.
6. Confirm you have a new application called Superuser.
Additional notes:
* Reboot may take up to 10m due to cache cleaning.
* After rooting you can uninstall GingerBreak.
Credits go to Chainfire who created GingerBreak and whose official thread can be found in XDA.

Gingerbreak works great...

i rooted mine with gingerbreak and it's easy

Great! GingerBreak is fast and easy

GingerBreak worked fine, Phone rooted and some stock apps removed. But I cannot make my /system writable.. I click on the Mount R/W button in root explorer and nothing happens..
EDIT:
I mounted it as R/W using the terminal

Hi.. I just root my phone as u say and now i have SuperUser app.. But i dont know how to remove Vodafone apps and the other i dont want, in SuperUser i cant do nothing..
Can you help?
Best Regards

You can use SuperUser only to revoke permissions of apps.. nothing else (as far as i know)
To remove apps, install Titanium Backup ★ root from the market. Open the app, go to the Backup/Restore tab, click on the app that you want to remove and select Uninstall. Be careful though, removing certain apps might break your system. So backup first.

I will try...
Thanks for the anwser!
Regards

Troubles
I have the Telus Optimus Black V10A and for some reason gingerbreak and Soc both hang on me.. but not frozen i left gingerbreak running for an hour (followed directions to a tee) freshly formated SD card Debugging running (tried both plugged in and unplugged from the computer) can anyone tell me what i might be doing wrong?

Gingerbreak or superoneclick are not working with new V10C and V10D

i want to un-root my O.B.

Sent from my LG-P970 using XDA App

Hey guys. I'm new here, I come from a x10, I just got the LG OB for "free" by renewing my plan. Im gonna try Gingerbreak, instructions seem pretty straight forward but any tips for a noob in LG OB rooting are most welcome in inbox.
thanks in advance

Flash the unSU zip from here to unroot, then make the same that you did to root it again.

I am having a hard time flashing things to my phone. Would you be able to help me a little more detailed. My phone doesnt want to recognize the file do you use odin or a program?

I never tried it (don't needed), you need to try for yourself. Just a silly question, do you have a nandroid backup, before the issue happened!?

Well I wanted to use some of my apps such as PokemonGO, and with the root it wouldnt let me. I read on this site that deleting 3rd party apps and then signing into the apps would work. They made it seem like all I had to do was redownload SuperSu. However all the rooted apps are gone and a lot of other files are gone, and I still cannot use the PokemonGo app. I cant seem to flash the zip file that everyone says to do. When I try to open SuperSU it says it root undetected, but my bootloader still says custom and when I reboot in recovery it says custom. Also rootchecker says that I am not rooted. I just want to get my phone working either with the original software, or rooting all over again.

How on earth did you delete the Play store when trying to remove third party apps?
Anyway... I'd nuke the phone and start from scratch. Have you searched through your device's forum for advice? Feels like the more appropriate place to go... Good luck.

My phone loaded into recovery mode and factory reset the phone and now there is nothing on it. I cant get it to load what can I do

what is ur problem?

Your phone did that by itself? Seems unlikely...
And that doesn't sound like a factory reset, it sounds like compete wipe.
Like I said, go to your device's forum, find the stock firmware (here's one guide) or a custom ROM and flash it to your device. If you need further advice, those forums is the place to go...
What you really need to do though is read, read, read about what you're doing, before doing it. "Sir! Put the device down and step away!" :laugh:
