Re: [android-developers] How to check device rooted or unrooted programmatically from my app ?

You should google the history of this group, this has been discussed before.

The basic answer is, you can't, and it's hard to define rooted.

You can check if you can run "su," but that doesn't mean that you are
root or not (necessarily) because of a somewhat ambiguous overloading
of the word..
