To my understanding the guy I bought it from said it is rooted and it can mobile hot spot for free. The ui looks stock, htc sense. I have this app on my phone called super user, yet when when I try to use the mobile hot spot, my ipod touch doesn't connect. I know the guy restored the phone to delete his info could this have un rooted my device?
 
I just copied this from a post that frenchy wrote a couple months ago. I felt I couldn't say it better so I am just reposting it.

1. You should see the "superuser" icon in your app drawer
2. If you download terminal emulator or commandbot (like mentioned earlier), type "su" (w/o quotes), and see a #, not a $, you're rooted
3. Power you phone off then back on while holding volume down (this will take you to your bootloader screen) and you'll see something like this:

SUPERSONIC EVT2-3 SHIP S-OFF
HBOOT-0.97.0000
MICROP-041f
TOUCH PANEL-ATMEL224_16ab
RADIO-2.15.00.09.01

Make sure it says S-OFF. That means you've unlocked nand access. There have been instances where Unrevoked won't unlock nand access and perform a soft root. This can be easily remedied by flashing Unrevoked Forever.
