Due to Skype death (RIP :p) that transition procedure is no longer appliable, go there for full root using same technique
2 months ago:
As everybody knows, Skype on TVs will die soon, so here's widget to directly replace Skype root to Skype-free root!
Widget only enforces another autostart way, everything else (e.g. custom stuff inside /mnt) remains untouched.
Applies ONLY to users CURRENTLY using Skype root on E/F !!!
That's why it's called "transition" - No point in asking about H.
Usage:
- Extract attached archive to /mtd_rwcommon/widgets/user
Folder tree should look like this then:SpoilerShowCode: Select all
/mtd_rwcommon/widgets/user/RestoreSmG /mtd_rwcommon/widgets/user/RestoreSmG/config.xml /mtd_rwcommon/widgets/user/RestoreSmG/index.html /mtd_rwcommon/widgets/user/RestoreSmG/widget.info /mtd_rwcommon/widgets/user/RestoreSmG/.settings /mtd_rwcommon/widgets/user/RestoreSmG/.settings/.jsdtscope /mtd_rwcommon/widgets/user/RestoreSmG/.settings/org.eclipse.wst.jsdt.ui.superType.container /mtd_rwcommon/widgets/user/RestoreSmG/.settings/org.eclipse.wst.jsdt.ui.superType.name /mtd_rwcommon/widgets/user/RestoreSmG/CSS /mtd_rwcommon/widgets/user/RestoreSmG/CSS/Main.css /mtd_rwcommon/widgets/user/RestoreSmG/data /mtd_rwcommon/widgets/user/RestoreSmG/data/empSmG.zip /mtd_rwcommon/widgets/user/RestoreSmG/data/libSmG.zip /mtd_rwcommon/widgets/user/RestoreSmG/data/rcSGO.zip /mtd_rwcommon/widgets/user/RestoreSmG/icon /mtd_rwcommon/widgets/user/RestoreSmG/icon/samygo.jpg /mtd_rwcommon/widgets/user/RestoreSmG/icon/bg.jpg /mtd_rwcommon/widgets/user/RestoreSmG/icon/samygo_106.png /mtd_rwcommon/widgets/user/RestoreSmG/icon/samygo_115.png /mtd_rwcommon/widgets/user/RestoreSmG/icon/samygo_85.png /mtd_rwcommon/widgets/user/RestoreSmG/icon/samygo_95.png /mtd_rwcommon/widgets/user/RestoreSmG/JavaScript /mtd_rwcommon/widgets/user/RestoreSmG/JavaScript/Main.js
- Uninstall Skype
- Reboot TV
- Launch RestoreSmG widget from Smarthub
- Reboot TV
- Done! Root there, Skype away.
- DO NOT REINSTALL SKYPE!! Otherwise script will replace its lib and root will start twice after reboot!!!
(might cause strange things in best case, bootloop in worst...)
- If one day you loose root, just relaunch widget.
Full root method using same trick will come later, probably around June 2nd
