[ROOT] Rooting E/F on latest firmwares

[jkarl]

A new experience: after using music play over onedrive cloud (playing stopped after one track!) root stopped! After rebooting TV I haven't root anymore.
My solution: I've started immediately after boot spotify app (it's time because I have added sleep 30) and root is working again. No idea what was happened!? I can see it because ftp-access is working again and I see virtual usb in source. And: the surface of spotify becomes a little bit greyed out after.
Perhaps it will be a solution for others if root suddenly don't work.

Hello,
I had a strange experience too: Having installed 2 or 3 Widgets before shutting down everything on my F8000 I noticed that SamyGO did not Autostart any longer. (OTN update is OFF, firmware T-FXPDEUC_1120.4)
No more autostart for the SamyGo Option available in the "Ticker Menu"?
I checked Data int?grity on the USB stick, No errors found, reformated the USB stick (that worked before) re-installed the 2 SamyGo Folders, tried another USB stick, Power On, Power Off, ?.Still no SamyGO in SmartHub and plenty of memory available?(:; No SamyGO
I then made a reset on the SmartHub and 2 Power On's later I found SamyGo in the SmartHub again, ?.
I don't know if this was related to the widget installation (WEBTV) or to an update of one of the Samsung Application widgets in the installed SmartHub applications.
I have noticed that I had serveral Error Logs in /mtd_rwcommon/error_log
These logs are quite important in size: 7 x Error logs of size 131.072 and 7 Kernel Logs of size from 5.120 to 125.597
Did not find anything suspicious in sam.log
Can I delete all these logs?

Installing user widgets from "another" server deletes previously installed user widgets (=SamyGO_AutoStart). It has always been like that. If you want to keep them all, install widgets only manually by FTP to /mtd_rwcommon/widgets/user

Yes, you can delete logs, but no matter if they're there, I also have plenty of them

Ok, nice to know!
Thank you

IIRC on NON-MST it's !/run.sh in data.zip

This the the text from the run.sh:

Code: Select all

#!/bin/sh
      for USB in ${1:- \
         /dtv/usb/sd* } ; do
         echo "checking $USB"
         sleep 1
         if [ -e "$USB/SamyGO_data/samyext4.img" ];
         then
		 	echo "OK" > "$USB/SamyGO2.txt"
            samygo_data_dir="$USB/SamyGO_data"
         fi
      done
cd /tmp
if [ -z "$samygo_data_dir" ]
then
    echo "SamyGO_data not found."
    exit 1
fi
/bin/sh -x "$samygo_data_dir/run1.sh" >> /mtd_rwcommon/sam.log  2>&1

And where must I enter it?

Hehe, looks on NON-MST I expected such problems this script constantly checks for file on usb. No need for sleep But we can't help you because you didn't read first post and you didn't follow instructions

Again, after few days root stopped. I try to root again and I saw this: (root still not work)

Aren't you the guy who did put sleep 30 in rcSGO and is using WLAN connection? Your usb is probably still to slow... I would suggest putting in rcSGO sleep 120

Ahh one more thing root MAY often stop working after few days if you DON'T disable OTN Support

[iT00NZ]

I disabled OTN support in extended menu berfore I root first time. I don't change anything with rcSGO. btw. after root everything 'is' OK, but rcSGO is 'NO'.

Reboot TV and root once again. If rcSGO will still be NO it means bad/broken USB Also Photo is more helpful
