Root Noob question....

[foreWard]

I DL'ed and ran the unrevoked3 program. It did its thing and said done....it rebooted and looks exactly like it did before....questions:

1) how do I know if it is rooted and ready to go?

2) how to I make changes, like allow mobile hotspot and cool stuff like that?


I wont even get into how I can add froyo, simple things first...thanks for the help everyone.

1. Go to your apps. Check if you have Superuser Permissions, if yes, you're rooted. If no, something went wrong

2. Download wifi tether Downloads - android-wifi-tether - Project Hosting on Google Code

Well, I use the latest one, but I'm on a froyo rom. Try that one out. Put it on the SD card, and using Astro or whatever file manager you use, install it. If it works, then great, if not follow these instructions since they are meant for 2.1 Howto: Root the HTC Droid Incredible - Technology - Jonamerica.com
