Yes.

It simply failed :)

Really guys we are not morons. If we say something is safer for you it simply IS :P

1. InstallSamygo_1_1_E.rar ([App] "Skype replacement" root E/F) - 379 downloadings
InstallSamygo_1_1_F.rar ([App] "Skype replacement" root E/F) - 299 downloadings
[Ended] E series widget -autostart w/o USB - a huge number of downloads.
[Ended] SamyGO Extensions on F series - a huge number of downloads.
All of these methods work without USB, with image-file (128mb.xfs or samyext4.img) in memory of TV. But THERE IS NO EVIDENCE that someone had received a brick!
2. I have 2.5 years of use working without USB SamyGO on my 40F6330.
The problem occurred only once - there was a cyclic restart.
But after correcting sectroyer's errors, resulting to overfilling of "image" by log-files, everything returned to normal.
3. Getting the bricks due to overfilling folder /mtd_rwcommon - it's a myth !!! Because this folder is never overfilled due to SamyGO!!!
"Image"(samyext4.img) can overfilled (too many SamyGO Apps, log-files, etc), but the folder /mtd_rwcommon - never.
Because the "image" has fixed size, and can not be more than 128MB.
samyext4.img uses the space for widgets. On my TV, for example, the size of this space - 1,42GB (i.e, samyext4.img uses 8,8% only !!!!)
Sectroyer, stop scaring people with bricks ! :)

Yes.
Someone's review - this is not a proof.
Because we can not exclude marriage TVs, failure of internal storage for reasons beyond the control of SamyGO.
Similarly, the internal storage can be damaged during installation of application from Samsung Apps.

Say what I want I don't want to argue. Guy had brick and no stop script helped and I know why it did :) Not to mention you are INCREASING the chance for internal storage failure...

@mihd, Not to put down your amendment in the 01_01_catch_crap.init script, I support opinion @sectroyer.
There is no safer method to root TV as through with USB drive.
Maybe it doesn't matter to users not modifying a stuff on TV, but for the development and testing raises the comfort for work!

How ???
I'm, like, explained everything in your message.
Likewise, it can be said that the installation of any application Samsung APPS increases the chance for internal storage failure.

Any impact on the internal storage can lead to malfunction. Whether it's SamyGO or a simple program.
