Skype being over, this root method is no longer appliable. Check there instead:
[App] "Skype replacement" root E/F


For those who can`t use develop account to get SamyGO installed on E series, here is some special widget prepared.

One of our users made more user-friendly How-To with illustrations. Check it here (steps 1 to 3).

InstallSamyGO by Rvs2
  1. Install Skype widget ans run it ONCE
  2. Download archive (this is not widget!) and extract all to root of usb
  3. Power off TV
  4. Attach USB to TV
  5. Power on
  6. Enter to SmartHub and navigate to widget named InstallSamyGO
  7. Start widget and wait until it finishes.
  8. Restart TV (power off - power on)
Options:
  • 1. Press "Enter" to install SamyGO-E widget to TV. Installs SamyGO to TV
    2. Press "Red" key to repair AutoStart. Use it to repair autostart of SamyGO widget. Time to time you can notice it won`t start automatically. This option should fix the issue.
This widget will work if you don`t have SamyGO-E widget installed yet. Before to use this method, you have to remove old SamyGO widget if you `ve it on board already.
Skype widget is mandatory

Now here is most recent SamyGO-E widget included (30/04/2013) with true telnetd and ssh enabled.

Here is support topic for InstallSamyGO issues only!

SamyGO-E widget related problems are to be discussed on this thread: Update2: E series widget -autostart w/o USB

I've performed every step, but get stuck at step 6:

"Enter to SmartHub and navigate to widget named InstallSamyGO"
There is no widget named installsamygo. Where exactly should it be?

I also can't navigate to the USB stick to start it mannally.

ps: is it neccessary after installing Skype, to enter your skype credentials to login to skype (whick I did)?

you haven`t mentioned your TV and firmware version-number. Skype is to be installed, you dont need to start it.

Absolutly stunning and easiest way to install SamyGo! Many thanks to all involved!

Works on UE40ES7000 (@8000) - T-ECPDEUC_2003.4

First try I also got no Widget to install SamyGo this way! I found out that it is needed to copy the files including thier main folder "InstallSamygo" onto the stick.

OK - you wrote it! Of course! But for some (inculding me) it could look like that only the single files (widget.info, index.html, config.xml and the four folders) must be on the stick :-) To much thinking sometimes :-)

Maybe that could be the trick for reiniertc also.

Oh yeah! thanks a lot for the efforts to create this installation method, and thank you fluffi444 for pointing me to the right sollution.
I indeed copied the single files, without the InstallSamygo folder. After doing it the right way: it works :-)

Model (firmware)
UE32ES6800 (T-MST10PDEUC-1023.2)

Hi juuso,
I have a question regarding the upgrade once i have installed the widget and you publish a new version.
Do i have to download the archive again and put it on the usb stick and install SamyGO-E widget again via the widget?
Or can i do it via my thttpd method and get the SamyGO-E widget via [Testing] Update2: E series widget -autostart w/o USB?
What is the best way to have the latest SamyGO-E widget?
Thanks and Regards
Hubert

Best way is to remove SamyGO-E widget from smarthub, reboot TV and install it using of one of possible methods.
