Ok, I'm back again with a few more tests (I can't manage to install Skype on 2130 - see the issue a couple of posts before).

I tried again to install skype, this time over my cellular network (phone acted as a hotspot) and it failed in the same way - so it's not a network/ISP error. I captured the requests again and downloaded the skype image from my laptop:

Code: Select all

adrianp@stingray:~$ curl "http://216.137.61.109/files/widget/201410/111399001835/4.140807/widget/enc_Skype_2014_140807.img?Expires=1449326327&Signature=P2DsVv4hpGODX2k2bSY-Kq5o2ZZRJm3guRq-x1ES2oYzfeOagDEXFMxJ8xLXzL6ObBobbXZe5KoZXwS1yC3KJW0Y30C3MVj355UP6cX7FczIdL3D0809sxmgpLwfhO6QzXEiu3CkZMtTZ0PnIRsIg4tQF9zPQd3DjcNuQBerv9M_&Key-Pair-Id=APKAIUMJLMRVBKS7VM4A" -H "Host: dly2224qfzjce.cloudfront.net" > skype.img
adrianp@stingray:~$ ls -l skype.img 
-rw-rw-r-- 1 adrianp adrianp 14835712 Dec  5 14:42 skype.img
adrianp@stingray:~$ file skype.img
skype.img: Squashfs filesystem, little endian, version 4.0, 14832715 bytes, 3111 inodes, blocksize: 131072 bytes, created: Mon Oct  6 11:01:52 2014
adrianp@stingray:~$ md5sum skype.img
8268dc5a66f1b65a4ec23dac49ca6230  skype.img
The image looks good, but my question now is - assuming I reroot with the new method, how/where would I copy this file to the TV to "force install Skype"?

After reading the forum for a while (viewtopic.php?f=48&t=5340) it would seem there is no way to locally install a widget without it going through Smarthub - is my understanding correct?

I have three options now:
1. Try a SmartHub reset
2. Try a TV reset to factory defaults
3. Set up a webserver to serve this img file for that request and trick the TV to download the file from my server - in hopes this time it will work.

I'm going to try with #3 first, because it's more fun, but if I fail which options should I try?
Thanks

Ok, I've tried option 3. I set up an apache web server with a redirect rule to serve skype.img (the one I captured yesterday) for any request that contains the string files/widget/201410/111399001835

Code: Select all

<VirtualHost *:80>
   // configuration ommited
  RedirectMatch files/widget/201410/111399001835 http://192.168.1.12/skype.img
</VirtualHost>
Next, I instructed my router to spoof the DNS reply for dly2224qfzjce.cloudfront.net and to answer with 192.168.1.12 as the IP address:

Code: Select all

address=/dly2224qfzjce.cloudfront.net/192.168.1.12
Tests show that the TV successfully connects to my server, follows the HTTP 302 reply and requests the skype.img file.

Code: Select all

192.168.1.60 - - [06/Dec/2015:14:39:02 +0200] "GET /files/widget/201410/111399001835/4.140807/widget/enc_Skype_2014_140807.img?Expires=1449412742&Signature=VzZCGdEIpjtt65W097iUavau4~N-~mXoV8IF9Tnp-XlLq0hD2M64csRHlHydE-5jZVuRpZQ~jyMsMziK60uUFDD2fvAWzHsiG64STQI~YEwa9jqOvZbri~jwxUQWcQ~W1e83CSCryI2~xl2zH~Yf7SmK0mLX8ZF~jsHMbXPPjyc_&Key-Pair-Id=APKAIUMJLMRVBKS7VM4A HTTP/1.1" 302 983 "-" "-"

I made another packet capture, and this time the file is downloaded completely. However - the TV still shows Error 1003 (Failed to download) when installing it. I know it lies, but I'm left with trying reset to factory defaults/ smart hub reset.

Any other ideas?

Edit: Tried Smart Hub reset, it still generates error 1003 when downloading Skype. Grrr...

Update on my Skype problem: a few days after resetting smart hub I tried downloading skype again (no proxies this time) and it just worked - installed on the first try. I don't know what the previous problem was, but it seemed it was fixed by itself. Strange...

I'll be continuing the root procedure as soon as I get time... Holidays are coming :D

Hi everyone,

what could be the issue if I downgraded my firmware and used Skype method to root, I can get FTP access but no telnet access. Does this mean my root has failed?

Hi everyone, just re-tried rooting as per the instructions but still not getting any telnet access. FTP is fully working. Any ideas at at all? Should I upload any logs that may be of any help? If so, which log? Thanks for your help in advance!
