You know you're rooted when you laugh at a higher priced phone with a factory OC
You know you're rooted when you have multiple keyboards with broken F5 key due to refreshing XDA
You know you're rooted when your favorite dialogue is "you wont have this problem if your root & flash a custom ROM"

You know your rooted when saying "I'm going to root my phone" no longer sounds a bit perverted.

Think someone came close with these already, but they're so true I simply had to duplicate:

You know that you're rooted when you wake up in the night for a pee, can't sleep and end up on Xda for thirty minutes

You know that you're rooted when you main advice to any new Q&A is a combination of downgrade, unlock, root, install 4ext recovery and then apply a custom....sorted

You know that you're rooted when you main advice to any new Q&A is see link in my signature

You know that you're rooted when you main advice to any new Q&A is look in the INDEX

You know that you're rooted when you main advice to any new Q&A is 'have you heard of google', something that's probably not say enough!

That's how.

I took out every device on the recreation room WiFi in my hospital once. Couldn't stop smiling that week!!!


Shhh... nobody knows.

Rofl that's awesome. How do the killed devices get their connection back though?

You know you're rooted when your one-year-old phone has a newer version of Android than your friend's brand new phone.
 
Black screens, big fun :D

I think they don't work with wifi connection, do they?

Sent by my fingers to your head.

No, thankfully they don't!!! :eek:

Anyway, this was tried in the doctor's lounge. That's my playground. I prank most of my comparatively technologically challenged colleagues there. That's where my android reigns supreme against those ipad toting monkeys. Bluetooth file transfer, anyone...? ;)

Now, this truly happened last year (gave my friend my Desire S for a day, running Virtuous Unity):

You know you're rooted when people think your Desire S is a pimped-to-heaven Sensation - and remark it's the slickest they've ever seen!

You know you are rooted when you tell your husband that he'll have to wait for some loving for the next day as you are busy flashing your phone because a developer has decided to release a rom at bedtime!

that's exactly why my wife remains un-rooted :) (no euphemism intended), plus that way the SKY Go application still works on her stock device so when and if I need to watch Sky football when we're away from home I can still use her phone ;) selfless me :D

    You know you're rooted when you're always surprised by your ringtone (or don't even realize it's your phone that's ringing) because you didn't set a custom ringtone after the latest flash.

    Ok,
    I've seen this round loads of other device subforums now, it's becoming a new trend :D Hopefully we can start it here.

    Post a funny conclusion to the sentence - 'You know you are rooted when...'

    Some funny examples I have found from the SGS2 forum... (thanks to the OP's :D)

    You know you're rooted when your girlfriend looks in your messages and gets suspicious cause you have none.

    You know you're rooted when your girlfriend can't get hold of you for an hour because you're in recovery.. and she becomes suspicious

    You know you're rooted if you have any emotional feeling when you feel the boot animation vibration

    you know you are rooted when someone at a party says "hey you have that awesome 12/8 mp camera phone right? please take a pic of us" and you can only sheepishly reply "cm doesn't have working camera yet"

    You know when you're rooted when you see someone else with an SII and you see their old out dated ROM and hear the song "memories, like the corners of my mind"

    http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1567547&page=2<-- Link to the original thread ;)

    I have poor imagination, so unfortunately can't come up with my own, but I'm hoping you guys can :p

    Be sure to use the 'thanks' button on the ones you like to keep up inspiration ;)

    Cheers

    You know when you're rooted when the first thing you type in the Play Store is 'TIT' ... and wait for the Titanium Backup suggestion to pop up.

    You know you're rooted when your morningschedule looks like this: Wake up, check out XDA, eat breakfirst while browsing various forums on XDA, taking a shower, just a quick glanse at XDA, driver to work, sit down at your desk.. "now it's been half an hour since I last checked, something has bound to have happened!"
