Database Users

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...

Ok i got Hulu working on my Thunderbolt by following these steps.
1. Download Flash 10.2 on your phone, make sure its set to not auto update
2. Download http://www.mediafire.com/file/en3tj77er9ucrqp/libflashplayer.so
3. Use Root Explorer or ADB to put the file in: /data/data/com.adobe.flashplayer/lib
4. If it asks if you want to overwrite the file chose yes, i know it will if you use root explorer, not sure about adb cause i didnt use it.
Hope you all enjoy!

Maybe it's a odex thing. Try to enable compatibility mode and try it. I don't use Viper4Android so I'm not 100% sure. But I her users are using this without any issues.

maybe it doesn't work on s6 edge + ?

So compatibility mode doesn't work as well? If not may be you need to switch the app as System app. I remember having this problem with LG device.
Basically move the Viper4Android to System/priv- apps folder and give proper permission and reboot. Then install the driver and see if that works.
Edit: just saw edit, yes it might work

I've tried this method already and it didn't work

MyCricket app and root

I rooted my G5 Plus a few months ago, and I just put HavocOS on it yesterday. It took some research but I have everything working except the MyCricket app. This has never worked with root. It ignores Magisk Hide, it doesn’t care if I’m connected to WiFi, or if I have an active SIM installed. It just doesn’t load and says I’m not connected to a network. Is there any way to get around this? It’s not very important that I get into the app, it’s more of a personal annoyance at this point that I can’t figure out how to make it work with root. Any and all help is appreciated.

Here’s the error the app gives

Kernel?

I haven't done anything with the kernel. If any changes were made, it would have been by the install of HavocOS. I would think it's still stock though so I'm not sure if it's a kernel issue.

It could be due to bad VPN you use.

It's hardly a VPN, it's CloudFlare and the MyCricket app works just fine on my non rooted Nokia with the same app/VPN running.

I'm facing the same issue too, but on Moto G5S Plus. Have you been able to get around this issue?
