mtd_rwcommon reset?

Post by Ceikor »

I have a UE46F6270 FW 2110.

How i can reset the mtd_rwcommon partition?
I have write a script to wait for files from USB device with a while loop :o and i forgot a "/" and now i hav a loop in the background without exit -.-
and i can not use any widgets. if i go to the app site on the tv, the TV hangs when loading the apps. i have no ftp or telnet access. Factory reset was not helpful.

PLEASE help me

Where do you launch your faulty script for it to prevent root?? Surely not at a recommended place :)
You should check if you can get access to netcat on port 4023.
Anyway, you're using USB root, so I don't see where something could be "irreversible"...

You can take new version of samygo with unchanged rcsgo on usb and get root back. No?

Netcat works the same way as Telnet, install for example nmap exe package: https://nmap.org/download.html#windows
then open commandline and enter command:

Code: Select all

ncat IP_OF_TV 4023
But if you just replace rcSGO on you rooting USB by original one, problem will be simply gone :)

No, smart hub don't show the widget on the usb stick and i can not install over dev account. The login is greyed out.

EDIT:
The problem is, this is a rcSGO from "/mtd_rwcommon/SamyGO/" and this is the first file to start.

Then kill your process through netcat :)
And replace rcSGO by original one (you put on USB)

Put the right rcSGO to the root of your rooting USB (let's say /dtv/usb/sda1)
Connect to netcat as told above, no prompt is expected but you can enter commands.

Find the faulty PID (the number at the beginning of a line containing rcSGO !)

Code: Select all

ps -A
(or "/bin/ps" if TV tells invalid option -A)

Kill it

Code: Select all

kill FOUND_PID_NUMBER
Then overwrite script by original one from USB

Code: Select all

cp -f /dtv/usb/sda1/rcSGO /mtd_rwcommon/SamyGO
Done :)

Next problem, if i use "nc -vt 192.168.178.38 4023" over Linux Mint i get

Code: Select all

Connection to 192.168.178.38 4023 port [tcp/*] succeeded!
but i can not enter any command.

If i use "ncat 192.168.178.38 4023" over Windows, ncat say:

Code: Select all

NCAT: An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host...
my firewall is completely off
