Root Installation

Hi I just installed on my Sumsung SIII the Avast Anti-Theft app through the Mobile Avast Antivirus using the advanced mode and checking the ROOT INSTALLATION at the beginning yet the Status of the root installation still indicates “No” Am I missing something here?

Do you actually have root? Was it written directly or by update.zip?

'“Direct Write Method” is not working the following message appears: ““Could not write to / system directory (Permission denied). Retry (it is recommended to retry at least one time)”” so it was done by update.zip.

the question is: do you have a rooted phone? (if yes, dont think this is stupid question but lots of users miss that)
