+ /tmp/bin/busybox losetup /tmp/loopnone /dtv/usb/sda1/SamyGO/samyext4.img
+ /tmp/bin/busybox mount -o sync,exec /tmp/loopnone /mnt
mount: mounting /tmp/loopnone on /mnt failed: Input/output error
+ /tmp/bin/busybox --install -s /mnt/bin

I wonder what it might be... "Input/output error"... hmm... maybe SAME as everybody else !!! Faulty usb stick. Try another one (no need to reroot). Some users reported success after attaching another usb and using it for PVR

Thank you for you support! Now it works!!

What about key BD_KEY_POWER? Do you know why it dosen't works normaly?
Is it possible to update or change something inside samyGO to fix this problem?
It is for sure last my questions.

yeah now you should read samyGOrc thread

But what do you mean samyGOrc thread?
I tried use this tool. It is interesting.
samyGOrc -p $(pidof exeTV || pidof exeDSP) 31 --> KEY_INFO
KEY_POWEROFF=152 --> nothing
BD_KEY_POWER=2 ---> let sey reset TV
What now? How can I use this info?

Well check if ANY key shuts down your bluray or whatever you wanted to shutdown

Hi there!
Why the root script does not backup the original Skype library?
If it would, it would be easy to "undo" the root procedure without any need of factory resets or smarthub region changes.

As far as i analyzed the rooting method, its basically replacing skype library with a stub that blindly executes runSamyGO.sh script using system call.
It should be possible to copy the orginal library to a different location and code our libSkype.so so that it would proxy all public methods to the orginal library using dlsym() AND execute the runSamyGO.sh when its at it. It would preserve orginal Skype functionality AND enable reverting root by replacing the modified file with the orginal.

dlsym example:

PS: I appreciate your work, don't take me wrong, I just think there is still room for improvements

You may add my TV as successfully rooted
UE48H6200, T-MST14DEUC-2121.6

BTW, I'm getting "new usb device" popup each time when virtual USB mounted after power on... Is it a bug of my TV only? I found scripts regarding hidding popup, but it seems doesn't work..

BTW2, is there any information about how to add a new virtual USB to mount some network resource directly (in opposite to the way implemented by default, which puts all found network resources in one usb device)? I did it myself.. but not sure if it is the best way. (I mostly understood the scripts 02_04_vusb.init and 04_04_samba.init, but I don't see how they are running outside and in with order regarding each other and regarding other scripts).
