I'm about to  try reflashing my phone and in another thread was advise 
of what to back up. However now I've come to do it I've realised 
connecting my phone to my laptop gives me Documents, Downloads, Music 
etc with no way to get to the root directory. Accessing via SSH does but 
I have no idea how to copy off the device with this.

So how exactly do I connect via cable to the root directory and say copy 
x off phone into y on laptop?

Cheers
