Can we create apps using B4A for phones that are rooted and takes advantage of it?

example would be something like: rename/delete a system app or perform a task that requires root like setting cpu speed?

Can we use File.ListFiles or File.OpenInput as super user?
It seems the only way to run as su is via shell commands now, like using ls or cp to move the file, edit it and then move it back.
Thanks.

I don't really understand why we have to use the shell because it should be only a question of access rights, but I read this too, so I'm very interested by the answer.
