SamyGO apps on B650 (European version)

Some months ago, some days before to know SamyGO project, I had the bad idea to upgrade firmware to latest release 3001.1. This firmware locks any third parts applications, and it's impossible to use SamyGO apps.

Few days ago I was able to break this limit thanks to SamyGO project. I describe my steps and special action needed by my TV model to make SamyGO apps working.

Check your firmware version and release

Firmware released before February 2010 are unrescrited, so we need to install it, if not already present.

QUICK GUIDE:
1 - Turn off the TV
2 - Press on the remote control in sequence keys: INFO MENU MUTE POWER
3 - Take note of firmware type and release. PS50B650 uses T-CHL7DEUC firmware type.

If your firmware release is 2004.1 or 2005.0 you are lucky and can start immediatly to use SamyGO apps.

Detailed informations about to find firmware release are in SamiGO for Dummies page.

Firmware release previous 2004.1

To use SamyGO apps, you must upgrade at least to 2004.1, I'm working with 2005.0.
Download the right release from page according your firmware TYPE.
PSxxB650xx firmware 2005.0 is available here
Firmware for others models are available in the page Old & Good Firmwares
