Prevent tv updating sw by blocking calls in the firewall?

[decix]

you can block samsung.* in your router or hosts-file but then some or all internet@tv-apps also won't work anymore.

Isn`t here any setting in Service menu like OTN service? or something like? Set it to off and enjoy

samsung say :

Code: Select all

Forced Firmware Update: 
Samsung does not currently support forced firmware updates, and that updates must be initiated by the user. But, Samsung widget engine has ?Forced Widget Updates and widget management?, this means that when a serious vulnerability is discovered, the widget will be replaced to a notification widget automatically when a user activate the widget. The notification widget only show a popup that explains that the user needs to update the TV firmware and otherwise user can?t use the content provider?s streaming service anymore.

so, just go service menue, disable OTN server , then there will be even no popup messages.

How can we disable OTN server in blu-ray players? There is no service menus in these units...

There is no service menus in these units...

Are you sure?

When I start my Internet@TV it always deletes my Vimeo-App and installs ~8 Apps I've
removed previously because I don't need them. Cannot do anything about it.

- Do you mean the OTN-Option shown in this picture?
- Will it help my problem to disable it?
- What does OTN stand for?
