if you move widgets from normal to user, you have to edit config.xml and add there <type>user<type>. Check forum, this is widely discussed problem here.

Being new to all this, i kindly request you to guide me in doing this by pointing me to right forum, as i tried searching the forums but ended up with the below link, which i don't understand. Hope to hear from you soon.

https://forum.samygo.tv/viewtopic.php?f ... 7&start=30

I also tried opening the config.xml file but opens in alien language and it says in description as SPM file. Kindly advise.

Thanks.

I think you have to decrypt that file first, but i`m sorry, i`m not really familiar with F series widgets. Maybe anyone else will help you.

I am interested in doing this on my new UE55F8000, but I am worried about breaking it. Can someone confirm that it works well. Is it possible to install the widgets using a Mac instead of a PC?

Very many thanks.

Are most wanted widgets available to download from internet, to skip process of several changing regions and rooting. Anyone made torrent with such widgets?
Thx.

unrooting?

Post by alllexx »

Hi all,

I have a 22F5400 TV with firmware 1120. Before reading a post saying that you can't (as for now) have root with this firmware version, I followed rooting procedure using samyGO (see the quotation, Step 2). Now I neither have root, nor working Skype. Can someone please share the original libSkype.so so that I can restore Skype? I tried googling for it, but to no avail.

TIA,
Alex

P.S. For some reason I can't uninstall Skype via store to re-install it, the "Remove" button is just greyed out

Thank you for your quick reply!
I forgot to mention that the "Remove" button is greyed out on Skype page in Samsung Apps for some reason, so I can't uninstall it

Try to delete it from option menu located in Smart hub.
