Samsung Smart TV - Jailbreak, Root, Etc. - General Questions and Answers

Samsung - 65" Class - 7 Series - 4K UHD TV - Smart - LED - with HDR Model # UN65TU7000FXZA
Just curious if there is anyone who knows if there's anything that can be done to this smart tv such as root, jailbreak, etc.???
I apologize if this is in the wrong thread or if it's not okay to ask about TVs on XDA!!! I love XDA & respect the rules so I did look...I just didn't see anything banning this type of question!

Lol XDA is a place meant to share root methods. And TVs are welcome!
Quick reminder:
Jailbreak=iPhone=Finding Exploit to elevate privilege and modify device=Apple do not condone
Root=Android=Using provided tool to fully control your device=Google 100% condone (and even adapt their google play security certifications for ROM users)
Your smart TV is unfortunately on Tizen, this is another OS than Android, that is used for samsung smartwatch and is only used by samsung (since they're the creator).
Read this:
Spoiler: Quick History
Back in the days Samsung launched a smartphone to concurrence Android, the phone was the Samsung Wave, and it was running Bada OS (and I had one).
Big flop, it had no apps on the appstore. The phone, even though it was good, was just isolated on its little island, forever. The last wave was the Wave 3, nothing after...
Bada OS didn't disappeared, this os took another name: Tizen. It is now used your other samsung things, they had time to develop it better, but I don't think it'll resurface in the smartphone market ever again...
Now that you know the story, you'll know better how to search. Here's the link of the XDA section for Tizen.
Have a good day

So does that mean there are no hacks or roots for Samsung TVs in general?

I personally admit that i know little about the subject..but i read that most smart tvs (dont know if Samsung is one of them) detect your location and pick the app store market based on the first time you connect to the internet after software reset... your ipaddress is ofcourse can reveal your country so if you want another store market than your country, lets say u want US app store you have to let it connect to an access point such as a router that has built in vpn and get it ready and enabled to US ipaddress , when you reset the tv and it connects to that access point it will think its in the US.. there is probably also software on computers that can make a vpn activated hotspot ...
I honestly don’t know if this method is still valid or not... I would like someone to confirm...

Have a look at SamyGo forum. They rooted and modded many Samsung TV firmwares beginning with the A series... Now they are testing root for the N/QN and they are investgating vulnerabilities on the R/QR. Let's keep our fingers crossed.

And what is the use of rooting or modifying the firmware?
Would it also be possible to root or modify the firmware of my Samsung TV (QN55Q60AAKXZL)? And if possible, could you explain the process to me please?
Thanks.

NAIPS for ANDROID

hey guys just wondering if anyone would be able to creatte this app.
The Iphone has such an app only cause the iphone is mainstream in aust but yeah. Was just yeah wondering if someone could port it over to android either 2.2 or 2.1 idc. but would be happy to pay as yeah i want to be the "different bloke"
as the pilot as i have the nexus one and everyone else (11) others own a iphone so yeah thanks
care to explain wtf it is/does?
and are you from australia?
well its a air services site that provides weather for pilots.
it is created by the buero of meteorology and then compiled and put out over different forms, i.e an app or a computer program or radio and such
yes i am australian and most that i know havent a clue how to make such a thing
i would give you links but it says i cant. i must be new lol.
I have considered developing simply to create this app.
Pweese I know at least 50people that would be willing to pay. Would bee so awesome
I'm the developer of the iPhone version of NAIPS - I had a quick look at android however it looks like way too much work for personally minimal gain for me (I don't even have an android phone). If I did do it one day - it would probably have minimal features as it would require a 100% rewrite. Plus I'm currently focusing on getting ERSA etc onto iPad/iPhone (after work & family).
Maybe a bunch of people could pay some firm in China/India to write a version? Or just a simple version (with Airservices' permission) that does location briefings etc?

That's cool. Can you provide some details as to the source of the data? There are plenty of open source weather apps, one could possibly bee modified to get data from that source

Ah, i have been reading your posts on PPruNe forums, if i do get my act together and start writing a similar app for android, do you mind if i contact you then for bits of information (ie what ASA said regarding scraping their material etc.)?
Also, just out of personal interest, what and where do you fly?

Not at all - visit ozrunways.com and send me a message on the 'contact me' page so I don't have to write my email address on a public forum.
We need more small cheap pilot apps available. I've made a bit of coin out of NAIPS but it's still far less than what I would get if I spent my time flipping burgers at McDonalds. Don't get too excited !!

Hey mate, just wondering if there has been any progress on developing a NAIPS based app for android yet. Because if there has been I would be keenly interested in it.
Not yet. There is no paid app store for Australia yet.
i'm interested to work on this app and it would be free app. however i'm very new to android and still learning.
my first app is KL Web Traffic which you can find on android market. if i know how to get the data and what this app do i don't mind working on it so i can improve my java/android programming skills.
Replying to a 3 year old thread because this app was the only thing keeping a mate of mine on IOS, and this is one of the top hits on Google search.
Check out thttps://sites.google.com/a/juddy.net/android/naips
There are a few now. "NOTAM Filter" is available on the play store and does Met and NOTAMs including areas.

[Q] Bought the Samsung GTab 10.1 today, have a few questions about it?

Hey guys!
I just ordered the Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 (P5100) 10.1" today via Flipkart (Indian Online Mega-Store) and it is expected to arrive in a few days. I'm really excited that it's going to be my first tablet, but mostly because it'll be the first Android device I own. I've been living with my Nokia N8-00 (Symbian Belle) for about 2 years now and I finally have a replacement.
Along with the excitement, I had a lot of questions about the device. I'll just list them below, so it'll be easier for you guys to answer them
1. Have I made the right choice?
The first thing I thought to myself after I pressed the 'Buy Now' button. I bought it mostly for watching movies and the TV shows that I regularly download from the internet. Some rigorous browsing, downloading of music, and mostly showing off my photos to other people (I'm a photographer and having a portfolio on-hand is a good idea). I haven't demoed the device before, but my friends have all said theirs works wonderfully (granted, they own the 7" version).​
2. What is rooting? Do I need to root my device?
My friends keep talking about this rooting thing. I'm a new android user, so I lack the basic knowledge of these terminologies. Will I need to root my tablet? Is it safe to do so? What will I benefit from this procedure?​
3. What are the best apps I can download?
I want to know what are the best apps I can install on my device for my particular needs (mentioned above). I also wanted to know how I can customize my device to the fullest extent. When I had an iPod Touch, I jailbroke it and installed WinterBoard to use custom themes and icons of my own choice. What is the procedure to replicate the same on an Android device?​
4. Is Android App Development easy?
What language is it generally coded in? I have a basic understanding of HTML/CSS & PHP, a firm grasp on C# and .NET (from Windows 8 Development). I'd like to try my luck in the Android App genre, how many have tried the same and do you feel it is easy for a beginner/intermediate?​
I'd really love it if you guys could help me out starting with this new journey of Android! Thank you all!
you made the right choice.
Rooting is jailbreak. You don;t need it unless you want to install certain custom mods or apps.
Development is as easy as any platform if you have done it before, its the same once you set up the environment. Search Google and you will find a Google tutorial on getting started.
Apps:
Evernote
Sketch Book Pro if you like doodling
Photoshop Touch
Tunein Radio

[Resolved] [Q] can i install iOS on Android

Hi everyone,
I am new to this forum and this is my first post
I have a Huawei Ascend Y320 (Android 4.2 Jellybean, dual-core processor etc), and I have heard that it is possible to run iOS on an Android device.
I have seen a similar thread discussing this topic... but the 'how-to' link in the thread does not load the desired page
I have also found this through a Google search 'iosonandroid' However the page forces one to make purchases for products and services that I don't want and don't furthermore trust.
So, that brings me back to my question, can one run iOS on Android...?
Please don't knock me for this, as though I quite like Android OS, I need to access iOS apps, such as 'iMovie', and other similar video editing/movie making software.
Android has many apps for such purposes, however, most are merely clones of Androids' stock Movie Maker, which has limited abilities, and can be quite buggy. I have managed to find a couple of great video editing/movie making apps on Google Play, but I would still be keen to be able install iOS apps to broaden my capabilities.
Any constructive help would be much appreciated
Cheers,
Harry
I'm going to answer your question quickly before someone thinks it'll be funny to troll you.
Sadly I will have to say, you cannot run iOS on Android, some developers have found a way to run iOS apps on Android but they haven't released much info on that.
The sites that say, you can run it. They're all bullcrap and just want you to register and fill out surveys. If there was iOS for Android, I'm sure it'd be on YouTube, and here on xda.
So again, you can't run iOS on Android.

Thanks for that Glad I got a 'straight to the point' answer from you, I really appreciate that.
I have seen evidence of heavy trolling on other threads... which makes it extremely difficult for people like myself trying to work out a solution to a query or problem.
And yes, I did wonder about the survey/register blah blah spam on the 'iOS on Android' website. I am glad I did not go through with the process, as it seems especially dodgy considering there is no way of contacting the dev....
Exactly, and the thing is, there is no specification for the device. It just has pictures of samsung and htc phones with the iOS screenshot and then the requirements on the page is based on Android OS versions... And it supports eclair. Lol.
Maybe sometime in future some smart developer will figure out how to run iOS on Android.

ios apps on samsung galaxy s7 edge?

Hi guys, i've been looking online all morning for a way to find a proper emulator that will help me use ios apps on android. i am looking specifically in using imovie which has the automatic function to create a small video with effects and everything. I've seen many people talking about iEMU but also other people saying it's been taken down and the source should not be trusted. Was just wondering is there a walk around to this. or not possible at all? The phone is not rooted and i prefer not to root it anytime soon. If it could be done on rooted phone only it's ok tho because i have a rooted s6 edge. Any help would be really appreciated. Thanks
Use HTC Zoe instead. Does a great job in creating videos.
iOS emulator for Android
You can easily find many advertisement, who say that, this and that iOS emulator is best for you. But still iEMU and Cider APK are the best iOS emulators in it's class with the fearture: they provides you parallel interface to iOS device, authorize you to download and easy run iOS applications on your Android device. Where there is pro, it is also cons.
There are few limitations related to storage capacity, Android versions and compatibility of these apps in your Android device. For information related to these cons you can check PruhTech.com I am sure it will help you out to clear your doubts
Thanks

RCA Viking 2 with Android 6.0 bypass

Hello,
I recently purchased a used RCA Viking 2 on auction. After doing a factory reset i realized that i cant use my own gmail account to use the tablet and obviously i cant trace down previous owner. I did some bypass research and nothing worked for me. Any advice on what should i do at this point would be gratefully appreciated. Is rooting the tablet is the only option here? If so then could you please point me to the how to guide for RCA Viking 2 as I noticed that it will be different then Samsung or some other tablets.
Thanks in advance...

The are several known exploits for bypassing the Google Factory Reset Protection (FRP) lock on Android devices. Of course, as Google learns about these exploits (from people boasting on YouTube mainly), security patches are rolled out via OTA updates to patch the loopholes. So, the possibility of bypassing a FRP lock on your particular device will depend greatly on your Android Security Patch Level. But, since you have no access to your device due to the lock, you will be forced to guesstimate this.
My best advice in your situation would be to visit youtube.com and peruse RootJunky's video tutorials on FRP bypassing (you will of course see tutorials by braggarts, trolls, psychiatric patients and total bull****!tters). RootJunky is legit and his methods have both baffled and infuriated Google for years now. If you cannot find your exact device model, try for a similar model running the same version Android OS. Oftentimes, a single method will work on a multitude of devices of the same OEM. (For example, at one time, RootJunky discovered an exploit which would bypass FRP on virtually any Samsung device.) So, if you don't see the RCA Viking II, search for another RCA branded tablet running on the same version OS. In closing, I'm certainly not saying that there are not other solid and confirmed tutorials for bypassing FRP; I'm merely saying that RootJunky's methods are legit, simple to follow, and very effective. Good luck...
No offense intended, but you basically typed a lot of words and said nothing. The info you provided is generic, basic and useless in this thread. Why bother to post without an even remotely related model specific info?
(of course why should I bother criticizing if I have no answer = touche)

你好,
我最近在拍卖会上购买了二手 RCA Viking 2。恢复出厂设置后,我意识到我无法使用自己的 gmail 帐户来使用平板电脑,而且显然我无法追踪以前的所有者。我做了一些旁路研究,但对我没有任何作用。任何关于我此时应该做什么的建议将不胜感激。生根平板电脑是这里唯一的选择吗?如果是这样,那么请您指点我如何指导 RCA Viking 2,因为我注意到它会与三星或其他一些平板电脑不同。
提前致谢...
