I have recently purchased an Arnova 8c g3, first thing I did was installed ArcTools and installed the custom firmware.

My question is, is there a way to disable or hide the fact that the tablet is rooted, the main reason I ask is that the tablet is for my wife and son to use, they want to be able to use Flixster and stream our Ultraviolet movies. But the Flixster app what allow this as it knows the tablet is root.

Thanks in advance for any help.

You can remove the root, we did not found yet a method that hides the root.
It may worth checking also on xda.

Thanks globula_neagra

Is there an idoit's guide to removing root? as I think I tried to do it last night but nothing seems to have happened. Flixster still tells me it is rooted. I'm new to all this rooting stuff, I have had android devices for a few year but never attempted to root.

Thanks again.

try this

Or you can use a file explorer that has mounting capabilities, therefore you will mount the system partition as rw, delete the superuser, and su files, restart the tablet, and check if flixter works then
