Interesting Mushrooms of Korea

Hello all. Here are some pictures of mushrooms from Korea. I really only ask for an ID on the first species, as I think they may be active.




Habitat: On dry cow dung in tall grass.
Gills: Greyish-brown. Narrowly attached at the top. (adnexed?)
Stem: Hollow, about 2 inches long.
Cap: Anywhere between a dime and a quarter. White outer going into a beige middle. What looks like some slight blue bruising on the edges.
Spore Print: Light black, maybe even violet. (Or maybe dark brown, it's hard to tell.)
Veil: Absent, though there is a place on the stems that looks like it may have been from a veil (thicker, older looking stem below, newer looking stem above)
My question is, are they active? Even if not, could I eat them without going to the hospital?
The rest are just interesting mushrooms I've found along the trails here. Doubt they are active, but they are pretty nonetheless.

The first mushrooms are Stropharia semiglobata and are not active.
The others are: 1. maybe an Amanita 2. Geastrum sp. 3. Laccaria sp. 4. maybe Pholiota or Gymnopilus

Thanks for your input!
Just a quick verification on the first: Are you sure, and if they are Stropharia semiglobata can I eat them and not get sick?
I only ask because they look strikingly similar to these, and are growing in the same area and habitat.
