Hi guys!

Let's start to say sorry about my bad english writing. Not my strongest side. Well, let's give it a try anyway..

In lately i have a strong sens that someone hacking my UE55JS8005 to tap my tv microphone, and other activity logs.Probably connected on same subnet (sharing with some naboers - having own firewall tho)
The resaon why i'm alerted, its that evrything lags BIGTIME when i've trying to stream any ip tv,apps comes and goes, the tv turns on and off in the wierdest times (without any timer function) and i got a few other hacker issues on stuff like my phone, computer, etc. But let me add that everything is quit better after factory reset when i got connected to network, tho.

My quick fix on the problem, was simply to reset everything to factory defaults, and keep my tv disconnected from my home network.
Is it any way to stay connected, and keep the fuckers away? The built in virus scan, cant find anything. But my router tells my that i got wierd connections from outside to my tv.
And is it any methods to keep some kind of logg on activity? They proabably connect truh a VPN, but anyway..

was probably not helping to see this movie either.. :lol: :lol:

No need for root, you can disable both into service menu (actually I'm sure about BT, never had any TV with mic but I think same)

Look for "Voice recognition" or something similar in Service menu.
