Justin, Thanks for your reply, I really appreciate that.
However, based on your responses, is it safe to assume that Android does not allow user manipulation of the file system and admin. related behaviors aside from in/through application? Practically speaking, something as simple as chmod 777 /data or ls / data can only be done through an application?
