No dice.

I ran the app, shows the msgboxes saying what is going to do but the results are never shown, the app didn't crash though, and yes, I got the Superuser request and granted access.

I would suggest then grabbing a terminal app
and start seeing how your unix environment is setup

Some ROM's mess with the system's files.

once in Terminal, issue some commands:


su

id

echo $PATH

echo $SHELL

env

As you can see, I have no issue running apps as root, check attached files.

Erel, it would be possible to include in the library telephone, the ability to check whether or not it is Root?

I don't think that there is a reliable way to do it. The code I posted on the first post is based on a solution I found. Apparently it doesn't always work.
