I write detailed guides on rooting webOS TVs (e.g., crashd
, NVM) and miscellaneous other stuff. I help people with various webOS issues (mostly rooting) on the openlgtv Discord nearly every day.
Much of my work is behind-the-scenes reverse engineering, but recently I've been contributing to the firmware extraction tool epk2extract
and the buildroot-nc4 toolchain.
I've bought a ton of LG boards with different SoCs and versions of webOS for research and testing, and the costs really add up. The required cables, power boards, and smaller accessories are a significant part of the cost.
The more donations I get, the more time I can spend on this.
If the key for your firmware (not PVR recordings) is not available in epk2extract
, contact me. (Although it probably is, as I've recently contributed many of the missing keys for common models.)
I am willing to take on larger projects like porting applications to webOS. Contact me if interested.
