Well till now it works like this:
"My TV is rooted but Skype not works. Please help." From now we can simply say:
"Skype NOT works accept it " :)

Well my good advice is always: NEVER do factory reset :)

You won't need any factory nor Smarthub reset anyway, it will be auto-removed like it already happened for "Family Story" and "Social TV" (huge losses :D )

Probably Samsung are preparing new Smart Big Brother app and then to turn off it -- so the Samsung Game...

Just asking, without knowing anything about it: can't the app backed up or the remove blocked?
