Thanks works great. Now I can use titanium to freeze apps instead of adb.

I have modified the scripts attached and have included busybox in it. Also I have modified it to work with other apps too.

How to use:
=========

For Windows users
------------------

1. Run Prepare.bat
2. After each reboot run, root.bat

For others
----------

1. Run the commands in Prepare.bat in your OS terminal.
2. Run the commands in root.bat in your OS terminal after each reboot.

Awaiting your feedback.

Root explorer doesn't work flawlessly. Temp root doesn't give us the ability to modify the nand partition. For example we can not change the bootanimation using root explorer cause it can not gain full root permitions to make system writable.

So since the other one worked on the 3D I take it this should too?

Can't seem to get write access in Root Explorer. When I try to click between read only and write, it does nothing. How do I get the ability to delete system apps with it?

You may not delete system apps, as system is not writable. As mentioned in this thread. You may however use the pm disable (package) command from an adb shell

At first I did not do the Root explorer. I try to download the application Android terminal emulator application on the Market. Run the Android terminal emulator application >>> This application will ask the right Superuser. Now you try to run the Root explorer application again >>> It will work :)

I run Linux personally, but I think if you just unzip the files into some empty folder, then stay in that same folder and run ADB by its absolute path, it should work fine. Something like:

"C:\Program Files\Android SDK\BIN\ADB.EXE" push xx yy

Maybe a Windows user could give you more precise advice here...
If you wanted to script it, you could use wildcards like:

Thanks man, it worked, but there is one application that i rely on that does not work. It is called "Paid apps enabler"

I live in a country where paid apps are blocked, and i rely on this app to unlock the paid apps in the market. Would you kindly help to make it work. Thanks

The app is attached
