you can access /data/data/ folder of the device which helps to get data of each application installed in device and one can manipulate it.

you can able to run command like su ping ftp etc with command terminal.

Can add additional commandfile /system/bin folder.

Root access is required for apps which needs to execute operations on command-line with Super User rights. Its just like using Terminal on linux system with command sudo.

//for example
Process suPro = Runtime.getRuntime().exec("su");
