I think I rooted, how can I tell?

I followed 42turkeys' excellent How To Root and everything seemed to work as it should. I then used the ROM and root updates from andrewb84uk and they went on OK with no apparent problems. Andrewb84uk has since seemed to lose faith in his own ROMs, although other users, like me, are happy with what he's done. My phone seemed to be working fine, I can boot into recovery mode, and I really like some of the new features on 2.1.
So, my question is this; how can I tell that the root worked OK? I never really investigated the OS too much when it was running 1.5, so I'm not sure I'd spot too many of the subtle differences. Also, it is an updated OS, so any change I see may simply be an update rather than the result of root.
Does simply the fact that I can boot in recovery mode confirm that root is successful?

Go to the android market and type in Screenshot in search...
Download the app and see if it works...
If it does your rooted!
It it doesn't your not rooted!

See below...

It works! Many thanks...

DVP ECompass App (Working) - Updated 2/15/2011

DVP indeed has a ECompass App. I will try to extract it and wrap in a new App.
Edit:
Finally cracked open DVP's native COM (OurCOM.dll) and got the DVP Compass app working.
Can't tell if the Compass is showing the right magnetic north (same was the case with the stock Compass app also) - atleast i got it working.
Here is the linky to the App (XDA WP7 Hacking Dev forum)

Just wanted to say thank you for all the great work you are doing. I'm excited to see how this one turns out!

how did you find it? THis was be used as an exploit to hack the dell venue pro.
I say, post this in the windows phone development forums and maybe a developer can use this information!
Hack on!

Its in the MFCTest app within EM. Once i have a working app, i will post it in WP7 dev forum.

Edit: Sorry I posted in the wrong section, I didnt realize it till now.
Edit: Thanks dirtydeangelo. Released in the theme section.

Anyone? Heres a link, please let me know if it works. If it doesnt work (which I highly doubt) it wont cause any damage to your phone or make any noticeable difference.

Will be working on it with lj50036 this weekend.

Nice to have Omni based rom on our shield

@sbdags
Great initiative.
Will of course flash and test it when you make it available.
Hope you get the stylus to work!

It's a rough build. Got a lot to fix first.

Compiled just straight Omni a few weeks ago. Same thing happened for me. Very buggy.

Yeah seems to be based off 5.0.1 sources and wifi doesn't work...

Hope you can get it fixed.
By the way I have a Lte Europe version.

OK this is just the WiFi version for now:
First Beta of Zombi-pop is up
http://forum.xda-developers.com/shield-tablet/orig-development/rom-t3194966

This is very exiting! I have the EU LTE version and look forward to taking Z for a spin. It's kept my Asus TF700T running well. Thanks for brining this to the Shield Tablet.

I want is android 6 .

Beta 2 is up!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/shield-tablet/orig-development/rom-t3194966
20150912 ZOMBi-POP 5.1.1 Beta 2 changes
- Re-based from omni-5.1.1-20150909-zombi_wx_na_wf-KANG maintained by lj50036, hardslog, sbdags
- Updated vendor blobs to rel-st8-l-r6-partner
- New Kernel - Updated kernel source to rel-st8-l-r6-shieldtablet
- Updated ESFileExplorer to version 4.0.2.1
Maybe I put it in the wrong dev forum as hardly anyone seems to be trying it.
The rom flies for me! lj50036 and will be testing F2FS later which should give even more speed.

Thank you for the great work, but yes, you're right, this is the wrong forum. You should have posted this in the original android development forum.
