Rooting LATEST H firmware [discuss]
Re: [!!!] Rooting LATEST H firmware
I do NOT support "latest fw" at ALL. If you have one you should block updates on router and wait for it to STOP being "latest":)

Be sure that I tried this already. Otherwise I would not write it. It works quite instantly again after removing the adresses from blocking.mehmethan wrote:After blocking the adresses in my Router, my Webbrowser still works for me. "It looks like" means you are not 100% sure? Remove them from list and try if it's working without. (BTW. My TV is ES-Series)
But I wrote "looks like" because "to be 100% sure" on Sammy TV are big words. Im not a developer to prove this for 100%. Let's say I'm 95% sure
Exactly - Same Message here "ERROR_EXE_001" - This comes directly after I blocked them in Router and starting webbrowser. Sammy Apps give me "ERROR_CODE_012".zoelechat wrote:I have similar behavior of web browser, and already had it before blocking msecnd.net, but it seems to be random: sometimes work, sometimes not (ERROR_EXE_some_number). The same goes for "Samsung Apps", I'm even not sure it's related to any URL blocking. Anyway, somebody using TV web browser must have time to waste
If this all is all not vaild for H than we can be happy! Take this only as "nice to know"

I'll try to log dns requests on the router when asking for a firmware update.sectroyer wrote:Nope that means update are NOT correctly blocked !!! it should report failed to connectmad_ady wrote:Small update: with dns blocking as described in my last post I ran a software update check from the menu.

Quick queston: are firmware updates region-specific? Other users with the same tv model already have newer firmwares, so I should have an update available...
H6400, firmware 2602.2 downgraded to 2130

Re: [!!!] Rooting LATEST H firmware
Just a question:
(I'm sure someone already thought about it)
Isn't there a host file on the TV where we can block the updateservers after rooting?

Re: [!!!] Rooting LATEST H firmware
There's an host file but it can't be tricked until you get root, nor permanently, and at this point TV already did bootup update check 
I do NOT receive any PM. Please use forum.
Re: [!!!] Rooting LATEST H firmware
So it is not possible to first root the TV, and after that moddify the host file by the rooting app?
Re: [!!!] Rooting LATEST H firmware
No, not permanently, you can only do it "too late" on every boot 
I do NOT receive any PM. Please use forum.

Wait, what did you mean by this? Did you manage to actually downgrade to a lower firmware?!zoelechat wrote: It was, but not anymore since my downgrade/upgrade success. I didn't notice any difference...
