I am presuming you mean "File Expert"
Do this to allow you to delete system files:
1. Click the menu key and select More.
2. Within that menu click Settings
3. Select "File Explorer Settings"
4. Scroll down and select "Root Explorer"
5. Click "Allow" in the window that pops up

no root button in explorer

Okay let's do this another way.
1. Download ES File Explorer from the Market
2. Open it up and press the menu button and select "Settings"
3. Scroll all the way down and select "Root Explorer" and "Mount File System"
There.

thank worked can this way delet stock apps

You can, but don't get too crazy, some apps are needed for the system to function properly

directory apps system?

/system/app

Vanilla 1.5 Web Browser.

I didn't like the Sense UI Browser because the adress bar took up so much space when the website was loading.
So if you want it follow these directions.
1. Download the browser (mediafire.com/?fn3jkw1mm2m)
2. Mount your Hero.
3. Place the Browser.apk in the root of the sdcard
4. Download and install EStrong File Explorer if you do not already have it.
5. Go to phone settings and then applications and check "Unknown Sources"
6. Then go to the settings of the EStrong file explorer and then press "Root Options"
7. Then press "Root Explorer", click OK to the pop-up, and click "always allow" for SU Permit Pop-up (if you have it, I do not know if this will work without it), and then click CyanogenMod (do not worry)
8.Click "Mount File System"
9. Go back to settings and change the home directory from "/sdcard/" to "/"
10. Go to sdcard through EStrong File Explorer
11. Find the "Browser.apk" and hold it until it gives you a menu
12. click cut
13. click the home icon at top of screen
14. navigate to /system/app/
15. press menu and then operations
16. press paste
17. click yes to pop-up (it is asking you if you want to replace the old Browser.apk, you will not still have the sense web browser)
18. Click install and ok to any pop-ups
All Done. Have Fun.

You need to change the lcd density in /system/build.prop.... Default is 240. Open that file in text editor and should look like for example, lcd density 180. Just use a file explorer with root access such as Es file explorer, or Root explorer. You need to enable read/write access or your changes will not be saved. Then reboot after you make changes.
how much should i keep it so it is exact.....

Press Windows button and goto settings.
Goto Root Options.
Check Root Explorer and choose HiAPK.
Check Mount File System.
Press Back button until you reach the Main screen of ES.
Press the SD Icon in the upper left corner It will turn to a house.
Now you are in the Root folders.
Goto System folder.
Open build.prop with ES Note Editor.

how do i go about doing that?
I've tried to find it, but just can't find out for the life of me!
You need Root Explorer, ES Explorer or similar. Before you paste into /system/app you must mount /system as read/write within the app, then paste your file in. Once there, tap and hold on the file and a menu will appear with an option to fix permissions. You need to set owner with read/write and group and world with read only (it looks like rw-r--r--).

That's the bit i'm struggling with!
I'm sure i sound a complete retard, but i've tried long pressing on the system folder and i can't see any way to change permissions(i've checked properties but i can't edit any permissions)
I'm using ES Explorer, i have astro file manager too, but still struggling!
Sorry if i'm being a pain
EDIT: I've found the problem... i didnt enable root browser in the options ¬_¬
sorted it for now i think!
Thanks a load both of you
EDIT #2: I've changed the permissions, then something forceclosed, and now i've restarted and am stuck on the google screen on boot not good i assume!
I can't do anything with the device now!
did you change permissions on just the wallet.apk file?

[Q] Can't install CWM

I tried this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1420728
I've got my phone rooted. When I use remount it says .cust_backup/image is rewritable, but when I go to ES File Explorer I can't find the .cust_backup folder to replace the recovery.img in. I can't mount on the pink screen either. So I'm stuck
This is on B526. Google shows zero results on this issue, feels like I'm the only one with this problem?
1- First and most import question your phone must be rooted? If you have custom rom then you have root.
2- After that install root explorer from playstore and then you can see folder "cust_backup" mount "/.cust_backup" as rw.
3- And copy this recovery (you can choose either version) to that folder and tried to reboot should be working.
Sorry if I sound rude, but did you actually read my post lol?
Try this:
Open ES File Explorer and enable Root and Mount RW
Open Settings, press the Menu key then Settings
Scroll Down to Other Settings
Select Root Settings
Check the following Options
Root Explorer
Up to Root
Mount File System

Well I didn't really do what you said, but it got me to search around in the settings and I found "display "." path files" (or whatever it said).
Found the folder

haha! I know what your problem is. The .cust_backup folder is hidden! You must go into ES File Explorer's settings, and file a option that says to show hidden files. If you are on the latest version of ES File Explorer, use these steps:
Open ES File Explorer.
Press the menu button on your phone.
From the menu that opens from the left, select the settings button (located on the bottom-right of the menu that just opened.
Once you are in the settings of ES Fiile Explorer, go into "Display setting".
Then, tick the first option that says "Show hidden files"
Now, go back to the root of your phone and you should be able to see ".cust_backup"
If you have any problems then let me know, but it is very simple. Good Luck

Edit system files

Hey all. I'm trying to edit some of the system files like build.prop but after opening it with my files explorer editor and editing, I can't save it with the changes I've made. I'm running rastakat 4.4 KRT16O build. Any suggestions?

You need to edit it with a root explorer, like ES File Explorer with root enabled, or copy the build.prop to your /sdcard folder, edit it, then copy it back and fix the file permission to rw-r-r, or 644. You can also download build.prop editor apps.
Thanks for fast response. Already using es files explorer. Where can I find that option? Also please let me know how to change permissions if I use the copy / paste option.

Swipe from left to right in the gray bar in the bottom to bring up the menu, tap on Tools to expand it, turn on "Root Explorer" option, grant it Superuser privilege. Wait a few seconds you will see a white window pop up, select Mount R/W, make sure all the paths are set to RW.
If you don't see the white popup window, tap on the word "Root Explorer" listed under Tools and it will pop up.
