this means it is rooted right?
 
Well I installed liquid but all it did was flash liquid on and off, so rebooted into philz and accidentally erased all my apps, then liquid loaded up fine. I'm now in the process of restoring my backup I made last night. Is there any tips to keep all my apps and stuff or no?

What do you mean erased apps? Wiped data? To keep apps, back them up (user apps not system) with titanium backup. But change where it stores backups to your card. In your screenshot it says storage/emulated/legacy. That's internal. Change in titanium settings to storage/external SD card/ titanium backup. Then back up all user apps. When you flash a ROM just get titanium again, from a zip you made or play store, then restore your backed up apps.
 
Ok thanks :) I think I accidentally wiped the data, still had my photos but that was it. Glad I made a full back up last night.
 
Ok so I got all my apps back but I keep getting google play errors popping up and just some in general other errors for different services. I'm assuming I downloaded the latest liquid, should I try a different one?

Do not restore backups of system apps or system data in titanium. It will cause tons of errors. Only restore user apps
 
My only issue with this is whenever my phone restarts I lose a lot of the apps on my screen, is that because they are on the SD card? All I have to do is just re add the apps back to the screen just a little hassle but I LOVE this root :)

That's not normal. Not sure why that would happen. But it shouldn't.
 
Ok it seems to be the same apps every time, everything else seems to work fine. I'll mess around with it and see what is up.

Nahh. You can use towelroot app. Towelroot.com. then get SuperSU from play store. Then get flashify from play store to install recovery. :cool:
