I installed hack on UE32F5500 with firmware 1111. Everything worked. I now have apps from multiple countries install and working fine. Was able to ftp into TV without any problem.
Thanks to everyone for all the instructions.

Where do you get firmware 1111 on F5300/F5500? My latest available firmware is 1109

Was set to auto update and got a prompt when I was changing to Australia on 21/09 and it got update to 1111.

I see that US NTSC models do have firmware 1110 available online, however when I look at european models, I see only 1109 or even 1107.

So guys im having a bit of trouble installing sammy go widget on my F5300 (32UF5300) (Greece). I have skype and it runs perfect....I did extract data folder to a USB (fat 32) and put it on my TV....Downloaded SmartHub Widget Manager... Logged on my TV as develop(didnt ask for password). Did put the IP...and when I click start app sync it tries to download sammy go widget but it says failed because of security. Any way to bypass that? Am I doing something wrong?
Firmware is : 1109!
Thanks in advance!

Try deactivating your firewall on the PC. worked for me.

I read the instructions and really want to try this! But my first questions is:
1) What will rooting let me do?
2) The initial thread states that if you don't want the "hack" to delete the SamyGO widget... Does this mean the device will go back to being unrooted after deleting the widget? If not, how do you unroot the TV?
Thanks!
