Is it possible to get the 1.5 cupcake contacts app in the hero ROM?
I would have thought so, place the contacts.apk from cupcake on the root of your sdcard then in adb shell or terminal:
su
mount -o rw,remount /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system
rm -r /data/app_s/HtcContacts.apk
rm -r /data/app_s/HtcContacts.odex
cp /sdcard/Contacts.apk /system/app_s/HtcContacts.apk
I'm not 100% on that though, give it a go, if it doesn't work you can push back the hero one
cp /sdcard/HtcContacts /data/app_s

You could create a batch script and put adb shell before each line, then when you have mounted /system just type in the name of the script IE remove.bat
sent from my *ROOTED* myTouch 3G Slide
adb does have an "uninstall" option. I'm not sure it would work in this situation. You could try a batch file that has "adb uninstall AppPack2.0.apk" for example and see if it works.
^ Will that work on the Slide?

I tried removing apps using root explorer but when I mount the system again the phone reboots and the app is still there. Im just trying to find a way to remove some of the pointless apps.
You have to be in recovery mode because the /system NAND is protected otherwise.
Here's what I do:
1. Reboot the phone in recovery.
2. Run Clockworkmod (by applying update.zip in recovery).
3. Mount /system in Clockworkmod.
4. Now using adb shell, you can remove the apps in /system/app.
Thankyou very much
Is there a way to install a recovery image or root from sd card & android terminal?

yes if you are on 2.1 do the
Ok ,I figured this out when I was at work and could not use my company computer.
So we need the download.
DroidXRoot_v2.zip
After you download, use a file manager and extract on the sdcard (not in any folder on the root)
Now put the wifi widget on your home screen
Download terminal emulator from the market
Open the terminal . Now comes the fun part.!
code
type these in and hit enter after each one.
cd /sqlite_stmt_journals
cp /sdcard/exploid ./exploid
chmod 755 exploid
./exploid
Now after typing that last command hurry up and hit the home screen button and turn on wifi. After go back in the terminal and type.
rootshell
cp /sdcard/Superuser.apk /system/app/Superuser.apk
cp /sdcard/su /system/bin/su
cp /sdcard/busybox /system/bin/busybox
chmod 4755 /system/bin/su
chmod 4755 /system/bin/busybox
rm /system/bin/rootshell

2.2 do this ( credit goes to Eousphoros from droidforums)
open up your favorite terminal emulator program
- cd /tmp
- cp /sdcard/rage*.bin /tmp/
- chmod 777 rage*.bin
- ./rage*.bin
- ignore it's output, we are thinking outside of the box here, just wait for it to finish and return a $
- now go to settings -> applications -> manage applications -> running -> terminal and force close that girlie
- relaunch the terminal app and you should be greeted with the friendly # symbol. Toda you now have a root shell
- the rest is pretty much the same.
- mount -o rw,remount -t ext3 /dev/block/mmcblk1p21 /system
- cp /sdcard/Superuser.apk /system/app/Superuser.apk
- cp /sdcard/su /system/bin/su
* cp /sdcard/busybox /system/bin/busybox
- chmod 4755 /system/bin/su
* chmod 4755 /system/bin/busybox
- mount -o ro,remount -t ext3 /dev/block/mmcblk1p21 /system
- exit

What can i do to root a 2.3.4 with a Mac?
I tried following this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1349652

I can't seem to remove '/system/bin/su". I restarted my KF and typed "adb shel" "su" and it says "permission denied". Does that mean my KF is good to ship back and not rooted now?

Try to install an app that requires root like OpenVPN for example. If it doesn't install or work properly, you're unrooted. Or try to su in with a terminal emulator.

SPen is the only feature which has made note so popular.
This script will not remove SPen functionality.
Look out for version 2 (Coming Soon ) of the script which will do so.
Did not work for me.
Tried on both internal and external SD. Installation aborted.
Can you elaborate please

I just rooted my SG S4 Android 5.0.1 with auto-root. Everything worked fine (root complete and SU installed) till I think I gave a bad mount command in the root directory on the phone in terminal (i guess here it went wrong, not sure. Or perhaps during installation of bash or nano) when I was installing bash and nano. Since it rebooted, I **lost the wifi and cannot adb shell into my phone** anymore from mac.
Afterwards, I managed to flash clockwork mod recovery v6.0.4.6. and was able to mount /system, which enabled the ./adb shell again. However i can now only pwd and cd, everything else gets this error: /sbin/sh: ls: Permission denied
I think my phone is still recoverable, however I don't know what to do and don't want to risk making things worse. Which andoird wizard can help me please?
**Below here were my bash nano install commands:**
./adb shell
su
mount -o remount,rw /system
cp -r /storage/extSdCard/bashnano/terminfo /system/etc
cp /storage/extSdCard/bashnano/profile /etc
cp /storage/extSdCard/bashnano/bash /data
cp /storage/extSdCard/bashnano/nano /data
chmod 755 /data/bash
chmod 755 /data/nano
cd /system/bin/
mv sh sh.old
ln -s /data/bash sh
ln -s /data/bash bash
ln -s /data/nano nano
export TERMINFO=/etc/terminfo
export TERM=linux
mount -o remount,ro /system
**P.S. So I also performed a regular mount in root, which i think is what made things bad, but not totally sure!**
