一些用于设置系统属性ro的修改版本。Modversion用于此目的。事情似乎已经发生了变化;我几个月前在TheDude上的构建是这样的:

cmb@apollo:~$ adb -d shell getprop |grep build

另一方面，来自1.5 SDK的模拟器，运行1.5镜像，也有根，可能类似于Android Dev Phone 1(你可能想要允许)，并有这个:

cmb@apollo:~$ adb -e shell getprop |grep build
[ro.build.id]: [CUPCAKE]

至于零售构建，我手头没有，但在site:xda developers.com下的各种搜索提供了大量信息。这是荷兰的G1, ro。build。tags没有test-key，我认为这可能是最可靠的属性。

if [[ "`adb shell which su | grep -io "permission denied"`" != "permission denied" ]]; then
   echo "Yes. Rooted device."
 else
   echo "No. Device not rooted. Only limited tasks can be performed. Done."
    zenity --warning --title="Device Not Rooted" --text="The connected Android Device is <b>NOT ROOTED</b>. Only limited tasks can be performed." --no-wrap
fi

你可以通过以下代码来做到这一点:

public boolean getRootInfo() {
    if (checkRootFiles() || checkTags()) {
        return true;
    }
    return false;
}

private boolean checkRootFiles() {
    boolean root = false;
    String[] paths = {"/system/app/Superuser.apk", "/sbin/su", "/system/bin/su", "/system/xbin/su", "/data/local/xbin/su", "/data/local/bin/su", "/system/sd/xbin/su",
            "/system/bin/failsafe/su", "/data/local/su", "/su/bin/su"};
    for (String path : paths) {
        root = new File(path).exists();
        if (root)
            break;
    }
    return root;
}

private boolean checkTags() {
    String tag = Build.TAGS;
    return tag != null && tag.trim().contains("test-keys");
}

你也可以检查RootBeer这个库。

使用c++和ndk是最好的方法来检测根，即使用户使用的应用程序隐藏了他的根，如RootCloak。我用RootCloak测试了这段代码，即使用户试图隐藏它，我也能够检测到根。 所以你的cpp文件是这样的:

#include <jni.h>
#include <string>


/**
 *
 * function that checks for the su binary files and operates even if 
 * root cloak is installed
 * @return integer 1: device is rooted, 0: device is not 
 *rooted
*/
extern "C"
JNIEXPORT int JNICALL


Java_com_example_user_root_1native_rootFunction(JNIEnv *env,jobject thiz){
const char *paths[] ={"/system/app/Superuser.apk", "/sbin/su", "/system/bin/su",
                      "/system/xbin/su", "/data/local/xbin/su", "/data/local/bin/su", "/system/sd/xbin/su",
                      "/system/bin/failsafe/su", "/data/local/su", "/su/bin/su"};

int counter =0;
while (counter<9){
    if(FILE *file = fopen(paths[counter],"r")){
        fclose(file);
        return 1;
    }
    counter++;
}
return 0;
}

您将从java代码中调用该函数，如下所示

public class Root_detect {



   /**
    *
    * function that calls a native function to check if the device is 
    *rooted or not
    * @return boolean: true if the device is rooted, false if the 
    *device is not rooted
   */
   public boolean check_rooted(){

        int checker = rootFunction();

        if(checker==1){
           return true;
        }else {
           return false;
        }
   }
   static {
    System.loadLibrary("cpp-root-lib");//name of your cpp file
   }

   public native int rootFunction();
}

Java级别的根检查不是一个安全的解决方案。如果您的应用程序在root设备上运行有安全问题，那么请使用此解决方案。

凯文的答案是有效的，除非手机也有像RootCloak这样的应用程序。这样的应用程序有一个对Java api的句柄，一旦手机是根的，他们模仿这些api来返回手机不是根的。

我已经写了一个原生级别的代码基于凯文的答案，它甚至与RootCloak !此外，它不会导致任何内存泄漏问题。

        result = 0;
    }
    ANDROID_LOGV( "File Access Result %s\n", build_tags);

        ANDROID_LOGV( "Device has test keys\n", build_tags);
        result = 0;
    }

    return result;

}

在Java代码中，需要创建包装器类RootUtils来进行本机调用

    public boolean checkRooted() {

       if( rootUtils.checkRootAccessMethod3()  == 0 || rootUtils.checkRootAccessMethod1()  == 0 || rootUtils.checkRootAccessMethod2()  == 0 )
           return true;
      return false;
     }
