ROOT browser [feature request]

yeah, pretty much self explanatory, ability to explore the android internal file system for rooted devices would be nice

Probably not a good idea to be messing with the Android filesystem over wireless which is notoriously unreliable. It's just not safe and the effort to go get a USB cable would be well worth it for your expensive smartphone.

root browser is alse needed to simply view hidden sys folders in SD!
if you can damage the phone from usb, why not to do this with WiFi? XD

AirDoid should just give a disclaimer. I personally feel that my expensive android device and wifi are reliable enough to take this risk. If your external sd card is mounted /mnt/emmc you cannot access it via AirDroid. It would be really nice to have a "root" mode for those of us that do not appreciate cables.

I think can set Options to Enable/Disable Root browser like "Root Explorer", for Rooted phone default is Disable, for not Rooted this option unavailable

Great idea to include Root Browser. The first thing I tried when I installed this Wonderful APP.

i definitely like this idea. I think it would be really good just so i can copy files to my sd card. Im not very confident with terminal emulator and binding my sd card to a folder in my internal storage so this would be a big help.

Yes good idea!
For example, on my Asus Eee Pad Transformer I can't upload anything on my SD Card because the path is:
/Removable and I don't have access to this path :(

Add an option for acces to / or a button for go to the parent directory.

@TheDude: I have the same issue -- I want to manage files on my External SD card located at mnt/emmc (Samsung Galaxy S - using Slim ICS Rom). My external card is much larger than my internal, and therefore has most of my media files.
Root access, or at least adding different mounts (i.e. detecting External SD card mount point) to the file manager path selection would be a plus...
