Rooted TV, telnet and other services don't work

Hi,
I've a UE40F6500 properly rooted more and less one year ago. Today, I've seen that I cannot
access it through telnet nor ssh, but only FTP works. Also, service like oscam doesn't work, maybe
doesn't start. I've tried to execute the APP to do the root again, steps are properly concluded but after rebooting
my TV same situation, only FTP works.
Do you have idea what happened? How can I do to fix this issue?
Thanks

If you have the FTP access to TV then try remove /mnt/sam.log log file and reboot TV.

Done but nothing changed, the log file was ~39mb.
I noticed that the TV is very slow when going on the Smart hubs, and also when I want to shutdown the TV, it doesn't work
until I unplug the USB-dongle that I use for the root.
Thanks

Your SamyGO image probably got corrupted because it was full (of log). Save your custom stuff then restart with default samygoext4.img

Worth doing backups, in general

Just to understand the steps that I've to do...
I've to replace the samygoext4.img that I've in my USB-dongle with the original one and restart the TV, right?
So, this means that I'll lose my oscam configuration?
Thanks

You told that you still had FTP, that's why I said "save your custom stuff" = backup important things you installed into /mnt.
Then yes, replace image on USB by original one (it will restore /mnt to default), and reinstall your stuff.

Thanks, everything fine now.
Now, to avoid further similar problem, is it enough to backup samyext4.img in the USB-dongle sometimes?

Yeah, and also think to regularly delete sam.log or apply
that fix to prevent it from growing
