Root System dump

I would appreciate this ;)

may I ask which method you used to obtain the system directory and/or img?
 
:/ but how you use adb pull on stock system? don't you need unsecured boot.img to do so?

assuming youre rooted : adb pull /system
to get boot.img
go to terminal and :
[HIGH]adb shell
su
dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p3 of=/sdcard/boot.img [/HIGH]

im not exactly sure what the dev block is for firmware, so mmcblk0p3 is a guess. i used a tool from the app store called Diskinfo to find it out
