How can I check if my Aria is rooted?

Hey guys long time htc phone guy, fist time andriod user. I just rooted my phone and I would to know if there is a way to check that its rooted.
Restart/reboot and if the "whoosh" att boot logo junk is gone...youre good!
not true, unless you have installed some custom ROM which removes the AT&T flash screen.
An easy way to check if you have root is to try to install an application which requires root previlege.
Or, since most root method will install SuperUser, check if you have a SuperUser application installed.

Very Easily.... Just Install Z4Root, It Has Two Options, Run The Second Option For Permanent Root Access,
**NOTE**
Sometimes It's Fast, And Sometimes It Takes A While, Also
If Your First Attempt Fails, Pull Battery Out, And Retry The Permanent Root Option!! It Definitely Works, I Just Used It Myself On "12/23/10" To Root My Friends Cdma Hero!!
Good-Luck!!

Help With Root

Ok so I just did an Odin install of the Dj05 package and now I'm attempting to do the one click root but everytime I try it I get to the point where it restarts my phone but when my phone reboots it doesnt detect that it is attached to the usb. Anyone have any idea why this would happen?

Isn't the all in one DJ05 package already rooted?
None of the programs that need root to work are working. Ive tried root explorer, rom manager, and titanium and none of them are detecting the root at all.

Root Problems

Hello XDA community, I have a root problem on my device. Im using Super_ONE_Click to root my Vibrant on 2.2 Froyo UVKA6 with Kernel V. 2.6.32.9
The problem is that somehow the root access is declining attempts from applications like Root Tools, Titanium BackUP, Root Explorer ect.... When i root the phone it did installed the Super User (SU) apk to the phone but is not giving me permissions to root access.
What it went wrong when it was ok before and now it dont. How can i root my device using a different method then SOC?
Is there anything I can do?
I dont want to start all over again installing soft and games as it took me lot of time to get the SD files for the games I have.
Any advise to root before going to ODIN as a last option?
Thanks guys

My tab did the same, but when I check root with terminal emulator, i discovered that my tab was no longer rooted. Type su into the terminal emulator field.
Install iconiaRoot and unroot it,the same way you rooted it.You should have made an initial backup from the beginning,but iconiaRoot should work.
nope, probably won't work.
superuser app is gone, but the su binaries are still in system/xbin/

Make sure USB debugging is enabled under settings/applications. If it's been disabled it won't unroot.
