How to enable Advanced mode
This How to will help you enable startup scripts which we call Advanced Mode. With it, you can start your preferred options like Telnet/WiFi/NFS and SAMBA Shares etc... on your TV startup.
Fist of all you need to change rc.local to boot from the writable partition. You can archive this two ways:
- Manually Modifying the Firmware. (NEED TO ADD MY HOWTO)
- Automated Way - SamyGO Firmware Patcher (with modification).
I can confirm i have tested both methods and it worked on mine. (DO THIS AT YOUR OWN RISK!!!)
Manually Modify Firmware
To modify the firmware manually please see the two guides bellow, currently the Linux guide is not yet complete.
Automated Firmware Update
To use the SamyGO Firmware Patcher to modify your firmware you will benefit from having less chance of bricking your TV. You will also be able to take advantage of the VideoAR fix, and not need all the tools detailed in the Manual Enable Guide.
You will need to do the following:
Download the latest SamyGO Firmware Patcher
Download the latest UNRESTRICTED (preFEB) firmware and extract it. Firmware to download you can find on Old&Good firmware section or search (or ask) on forum. Also old firmwares are available on Samsung Open Source Release Center.
run SamyGo.py against the latest downloaded firmware. *note this needs to be a clean firmware not an already modified one.
example:
python ./SamyGO.py ./T-CHU7DEUC/
and select "Advanced mode" instead of Telnet when is requested.
Flash the Modified Firmware
Move the T-CHU7DEUC directory and all of its contents to an USB drive, plugin the USB drive into your TV and manually start the upgrade via the appropriate menu entry on your TV.
Rooting TV
You needed to use TV's bash command line to configure/put your scripts. There is 2 way to archieve such goal.
Telnet Way
Firstly you needed to enable telnet because "Advanced Mode" does not start telnet automatically. So Download SamyGO Telnet Enabler Program extract it to your USB Flash, then plug it to TV. Using the Content Library from Pup-Up menu, select USB, then under Game Menu, select and start SamyGO application once. TV will goes black than returns to menu. This will enable your TV's telnet once. Connect to your TV via telnet. If you use windows, you can use a command prompt or better PuTTY. *nix guys just use a console.
telnet <Your TV's IP depending your configuration>
The default username is root with no password.
Serial Console Way
You can also use ExLink cable to use Enable Serial Console on non CI+ Devices to connect your TV( yeah but not for CI+ devices )
Add Auto Start Scripts
Enable Telnet and Back-Door
This will enable Telnet and also open back-door for fixing boot-loop situations.
You firstly need to create and add info to SamyGO.sh which is what the TV is trying to boot from in rc.local
$ vi /mtd_rwarea/SamyGO.sh
Now add the following:
#!/bin/sh # Enable Telnetd mount -t devpts devpts /dev/pts telnetd sleep 20 # Open back-door for fixing boot-loop situations sleep 20 # Allow USB stick to settle USB="/dtv/usb/sda1" # USB mount-point if [ -f $USB/usb.sh ];then $USB/usb.sh # USB-File detected. else if [ -f /mtd_rwarea/mtd_rwarea.sh ];then /mtd_rwarea/mtd_rwarea.sh # Run normal startup script fi if [ -f /mtd_rwarea/mount.sh ];then /mtd_rwarea/mount.sh # Run mount script fi # Alternatives of Samsung WiFi Link Stick # You need to download the new mods and place them in /mtd_rwarea/drivers/ if [ -f /mtd_rwarea/.wifi-rt2870 ];then rmmod rt2870sta # Unloading original rt2870sta sleep 5 insmod /mtd_rwarea/drivers/rt2870sta.ko # Loading modified rt2870sta fi if [ -f /mtd_rwarea/.wifi-rt73 ];then rmmod rt73 # Unloading original rt73 sleep 5 insmod /mtd_rwarea/drivers/rt73.ko # Loading modified rt73 fi fi exit
If you don't know how to use vi save it to your usb stick and copy it or edit the file with vi and use ":wq!" without the quotes to exit and save the file.
Now you need to change the permissions on the file
$ chmod 755 /mtd_rwarea/SamyGO.sh
If you do not wish to use auto mounting or anything else you can stop here, just reboot your TV and confirm telnet is enabled. Or carry on to enable mounting.
Enable Mounts
If you wish to use auto mounting NFS/CIFS/SMB you will need to edit /mtd_rwarea/mount.sh
$ vi /mtd_rwarea/mount.sh
Add the following to mount.sh
#!/bin/sh # If /mtd_rwarea/.nfs Exists then Mount NFS Shares on Virtual USB # touch /mtd_rwarea/.nfs if you wish to use NFS Shares and mount on a Virtaul USB if [ -f /mtd_rwarea/.nfs ];then echo "Mounting NFS Shares on Virtual USB" # Set NFS Settings VUSB="/dtv/usb/sda4" # Your Virtual USB mount-point NFSS="10.0.0.10" # NFS Server NFS1="Series" # NFS Share 1 (Media) NFS2="Music" # NFS Share 2 (Music) NFS3="Pictures" # NFS Share 3 (Pics) NFS4="Video" # NFS Share 4 (Other) NFSS1="series" # NFS Server Share 1 (Media) NFSS2="music" # NFS Server Share 2 (Music) NFSS3="pics" # NFS Server Share 3 (Pics) NFSS4="vids" # NFS Server Share 4 (other) # Only Process if NFS Shares are not mounted if [ `mount | grep -c $VUSB` == 0 ]; then # Create Directory Structure for Virtual USB echo "Creating Virtual USB Directory Structure" mkdir -p $VUSB mkdir -p $VUSB/$NFS1 mkdir -p $VUSB/$NFS2 mkdir -p $VUSB/$NFS3 mkdir -p $VUSB/$NFS4 echo "Mounting NFS Shares" mount -o nolock $NFSS:/$NFSS1 $VUSB/$NFS1 -t nfs mount -o nolock $NFSS:/$NFSS2 $VUSB/$NFS2 -t nfs mount -o nolock $NFSS:/$NFSS3 $VUSB/$NFS3 -t nfs mount -o nolock $NFSS:/$NFSS4 $VUSB/$NFS4 -t nfs # Append Virtual USB to log file. This Allows you to view the device in media.p echo "Appending Virtual USB to log" echo "[sdd] Vendor : Linux Product : Virtual USB Serial : Q80VQLFL Devpath : 4 Lun : 0 MountDir : /dtv/usb/sda4 FileSystem : vfat " >> /dtv/usb/log else echo "NFS Shares already Mounted" fi fi if [ -f /mtd_rwarea/.nfs-usb ];then echo "Mounting NFS Shares on USB" # Allow USB-stick to settle sleep 20 # Set NFS Settings VUSB="/dtv/usb/sda1" # Your Virtual USB mount-point NFSS="10.0.0.10" # NFS Server NFS1="Series" # NFS Share 1 (Media) NFS2="Music" # NFS Share 2 (Music) NFS3="Pictures" # NFS Share 3 (Pics) NFS4="Video" # NFS Share 4 (Other) NFSS1="series" # NFS Server Share 1 (Media) NFSS2="music" # NFS Server Share 2 (Music) NFSS3="pics" # NFS Server Share 3 (Pics) NFSS4="vids" # NFS Server Share 4 (other) # Only Process if NFS Shares are not mounted if [ `mount | grep -c $VUSB` == 0 ]; then # Create Directory Structure for Virtual USB echo "Creating Virtual USB Directory Structure" mkdir -p $VUSB mkdir -p $VUSB/$NFS1 mkdir -p $VUSB/$NFS2 mkdir -p $VUSB/$NFS3 mkdir -p $VUSB/$NFS4 echo "Mounting NFS Shares" mount -o nolock $NFSS:/$NFSS1 $VUSB/$NFS1 -t nfs mount -o nolock $NFSS:/$NFSS2 $VUSB/$NFS2 -t nfs mount -o nolock $NFSS:/$NFSS3 $VUSB/$NFS3 -t nfs mount -o nolock $NFSS:/$NFSS4 $VUSB/$NFS4 -t nfs elsethe two files echo "NFS Shares already Mounted" fi fi if [ -f /mtd_rwarea/.nfs_unmount ];then echo "Unmounted NFS Shares" umount $VUSB/$NFS1 umount $VUSB/$NFS2 umount $VUSB/$NFS3 umount $VUSB/$NFS4 rm -Rf /dtv/usb/sda4 rm -Rf /mtd_rwarea/.nfs_unmount fi
You will need to edit the "# Set NFS Settings" section and also decide if you wish to use a virtual USB stick to mount your shares on or not. I do not see the point in keeping a USB stick in just for mount points hence the mounting to a virtual disk. On some TV's this does not work, however, so then you will be forced to use a real USB stick.
Now you need to change the permissions on the file
$ chmod 755 /mtd_rwarea/mount.sh
If you are going to use the NFS mounting you need to touch /mtd_rwarea/.nfs-usb (ADD SMB AND CIFS)
$ touch /mtd_rwarea/.nfs-usb
Reboot the TV and watch the magic :)

Other Info
Just some additional information that you might want to consider.
WiFi
To get wifi working on other wifi dongles please take a look at: Alternatives of Samsung WiFi Link Stick
- Direct SamyGO WIFI Extension Addon Download
Download the relevant module place it in /mtd_rwarea/drivers/ you will need to create the relevant file to allow it to auto start on boot.
$ touch /mtd_rwarea/.wifi-rt2870 $ touch /mtd_rwarea/.wifi-rt73
BusyBox
Only use this if you know what you are doing. Some of us cannot use the static BusyBox but the linux geeks out there need a better one.
- Download BusyBox
Extract BusyBox and place just the busybox binary in /mtd_rwarea/bin/
