Hey Emmanuel, I am interested in updating my infinix smart 2 but, I am worried it might get damaged. I bought it newly a few days ago so, is it necessary to check if its rooted? And if yes, how do I check? ThankS
Well since you said you bought it new, which means you were the one who took it out of the box the first time by yourself, then i'm pretty sure it is not rooted.. Because no manufacturer will root their smart phones before selling it..
But if for any reason you're still in doubt. Kindly follow this link to download Kingroot tool. . It is an android rooting application that lets you know first if your smart phone is rooted or not, before proceeding to root.
Please let me know if it worked for you… #Cheers..
