Rooting UE48H8000 with T-GFPDEUC-1180.4. Is it possible?

[JokinAU]

Is it possible to root my UE48H8000 (I know size doesn't matter... when talking about these firmwares!) with firmware T-GFPDEUC-1180.4?

It took me a bit but I was able to disable OTA and OTN updates (thanks to my Logitech Harmony 300). I have been trying several days to root it with no luck following viewtopic.php?f=70&t=8469, but no luck yet... Has anyone been able to do so?

Thanks for your time!

I am affraid that somewhere in this topic it was stated that so far no single rooting success with series 8.....

Thank you VERY MUCH for the answer!

Ok, I'll try to mess a bit, as I see it is not a good media player for network(smb) files(I had to ise upnp), subtitles and so on.
Raspberry is WAY better on this, so I'll stick to it

I cross my fingers for rooting H8xxx's because I can imagine that running Raspberry Pi is not a preferable solution just to have smb and subtitles.

I had model B8xxx and that time it was nice rootable box
However due to problems with rooting H8xxx models I recently changed to H5500 and I am really happy with this choice.

+1, I completely agree with you!
I think it's Samsungs duty to develop (or open their systems) to allow the features I mentioned. Rasperry Pi 2 is out, and for 35?(using Openelec or Raspbmc) you get such an amazing mediaplayer, that in a 1200? TV you MUST include it all!

I really appreciate your posts
