Heya!
Recently treated myself with a new LG TV and chose WebOS since it seems to be the best developed (apart from Android TV) so far.
Is there any way to root it and install third party apps on it? Or is it even worth doing it?
Thanks!

Don't think so.
I know that this is an old thread but now there is "RootMyTv"

I have the HTC G2 (Desire Z) on t-mobile. I just purchased a 32GB iPad 2 last week and am waiting for it to arrive soon. I want to use it's video out features a lot with my TV and I also have an apple bluetooth keyboard for typing and stuff.
My main question is are there any apps that allow an android phone to be used as a remote or mouse for the iPad??
Just any apps that allow android and iOS to play nice together would be great to know about. (and I'm not really asking about games, more so productivity apps or remote control type apps) Thanks!
p.s. Please no fanboy/troll comments please. I seriously am just trying to get the most out of what I have purchased. I love android and I love the iPad 2, and I would love some input on making them play nice together as I can't find anything online besides tablet comparisons
Just found this:

I'm thinking using it to browse your phone on the ipad? Could work? Havnt tried it as I haven't received my ipad yet. But I think its worth a look.

I would love to have media controls for my iPad on my Moto X, so I could control my Youtube app. It's that possible?
Before I start working on a project like this, is there anyone that would want a custom rom for a GoogleTV style device? GoogleTV falls short in so many ways, and I'm curious if anyone is interested in fixing it.
Google TV rom
I have been looking for a rom to be able to do more with Google TV. So count me in...... I have the Sony NSZ-GT1 UNIT.

As far as usability is concerned I'm thinking that it should be full Android, but with the ability to float any app. On screen keyboards and a few other fixups.
The main reason I've never considered buy one of these devices as an option is that you're at the mercy of the manufacturer to keep the software up with the times. If you're able to build custom ROMs that would change everything. Good luck!
Yes

I would love a custom (and Rooted) ROM for my Sony GoogleTV box.
I'm really tired of Google, Microsoft and Apple and want to get away from them. So i'm wondering if there's any people here who've actually tested some of the phones with the new operating systems, like Ubuntu, Firefox OS, Tizen and Sailfish, and who can recommend some phones.
I've been using Flyme os on my Nexus 5 and I enjoy it very much. I agree that Stock rom is kind of boring.
I tried ubuntu on Nexus 10 about 6 months ago, but android worked better on it. Had some issues like battery draining fast, not so good performance and some application not working and lack of support application.
Thanks guys. But aren't there any phones not made by Google that have active alternative-OS modding?

Did you hear of any Tizen phones? I have only heard about wearables. Release of the first Tizen phone from Samsung was recently delayed. Again.

I've heard of the Alcatel onetouch fire that runs firefox o.s. by default, and also Sony had offered the same o.s. for the xperia e. You can check them out if you wish.
Here's a video with an xperia e running the experimental version of the firefox o.s. (it's in Czech): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C72j1LdOEC0

Nope. There's so many phones out there that may or may not get one or more of these OS' that i felt it's best just to ask what people think is the best combination. I have a Galaxy Note II LTE for example, but it has seemingly no alternative OS developer interest whatsoever.

Hmm, there's many different Onetouch and Xperia models. I would like a mid-budget or better phone really. Ubuntu for example needs quite a powerful phone and it would be nice to be able to run it.

Well, i've already tried the best for years. Now i want something different, and to get away from the big guys. The process of getting the alternative OS' onto existing or planned high-budget phones is sure taking its sweet old time.

I have 2 of them, but not a developer and have no idea how to root them. Would love to see someone more skilled than me crack the code.

I have one too, bought it for the screen size but it would be nice to root it. Looks like no developers are interested in rooting it ........guess there is not enough demand for it.

I actually just bought 2 more for my kids, they're great tablets given the price point! They primarily use them for Netflix, so while I love having root access to my hardware, many apps including Netflix don't work with root anymore and I don't have time to tinker with stuff to get around the crippling these companies do to their apps. Heck, I tried to use a whole house VPN solution recently only to have the kids screaming that their Netflix wasn't working. Seems Netflix has a problem with me securing my data and privacy too
7I too have been searching all websites forums.... And used all the tools I've heard of to no avail (vroot, iroot, kingroot, kingoroot etc... You name it).
Nothing I have used has worked and I'd be very grateful if someone would be able to root this Device.
Thank you
I mean...there's really no point in buying this if I can't get the Nvidia apps after getting a Custom ROM, so that's my question.
And can I...get the shield apps on another Android device? Although tbh, I want a Shield, just not sure.

Yes you can get the Nvidia Games app (the most important one) and Nvidia Dabbler from Play Store, and all custom roms come with the console mode app. Not sure if there are any other apps from Nvidia (haven't been on stock since I bought the tab) but this should cover basic functionality
