No longer working (LGOLED65C9PLA - wos 05.20.15)

[GRX]

Hi,

The exploit is no longer working sadly, the script tells it was a success, then reboots, but after a reboot nothing happened.

[gotwig]

Same for me. I just discovered the project yesterday.

Tried on LG C9, latest fw. Run exploit, it rebooted - nothing happened!

[ivarbanovv]

Yep me three . Just confirmed that homebrew channel is missing after the 'successful' patch and reboot

[SanyaPilot]

I confirm, LG NANO86, latest firmware. Exploit is broken :( Nothing changed after reboot

[zenoleg]

The same on LG NANO866NA WebOS 5.3.0-2205

[theoneandonly-vector]

maybe someone has a safe method to downgrade?

[gitgud187]

Exactly the same for me - exploit says it was successful but no homebrew channel.

[IceBear2k]

Doesn't work here either. Exploit successful, TV reboots, no popups or any changes after reboot and no Homebrew Channel.

LG OLED55B97LA Software Version 05.20.15 webOS TV Version 4.9.5-10 (goldilocks2-gympie)

[Rangnarok123]

Just to report that currently this is not working on mine either Software Version 05.20.15 webOS TV Version 4.9.5-10 (goldilocks2-gympie)

[iMongui]

Nope, here is the same, LG C9, latest fw as my other colleagues and still not working

[CarpetHead]

Also having the same issue on an lg CX 55

[Ansem013]

Same for me, Software Firmware 5.20.15. Hopefully there will be a new version that will support this firmware 🙏

[FlobertSky]

Still doesn't work as of March 28th. Has there been any updates on when this could work? Was really looking forward to root my tv what a shame :/

[theoneandonly-vector]

please people.. stop spamming.. we all know that it doesn't work anymore on new Software Versions. just posting every model isn't gonna help.

Got it! thanks for the advise. Now , moving on.. How can we sort out this issue? any suggested method? downgrading? if so, how? Perhaps we should wait for updates on this.

Thanks in advance.

At everyone! I assume you all want to install The Homebrew Channel, which can also be done by creating a developer account and installing the developer mode app on the TV.

Then you can use DevMode Manager for webOS TV to connect to your TV from your PC. Once connected, install the Homebrew channel from the application and then you're done!

Extra tip: I managed to also install Ad-free Youtube by doing this!

Ask me if you have any questions and maybe I will write a more detailed guide

[RingKing86]

Most people want root access to be able to use Piccap Hyperion which only works with rooted TV. Sadly root still doesn't work on the latest firmware.

Hopefully a new version of RootMyTv is out soon. It shouldn't take long because everything seems to work fine, only at the final step when the TV restarts something goes wrong.

[sascha005]

OK, so it is not possible with the use of the DevMode Manager to get Hyperion Working at this time ?

[RingKing86]

Yeah it requires root access to work as of yet.

[sascha005]

hm, okay so Fingers crossing for now...

[cteubs]

Not sure thre the thread here is version specific, but for what it's worth, the exploit worked on my tv running webOS 6.2.0-35.

[Reintjuu]

@JasonLandbridge, a more detailed guide would be appreciated!

@Informatic, is there something we could help with? Do you need more info/logs?

[StratusFearMe21]

Can concurr LG WebOS 05.25.15

[kubo6472]

~~Is there any way to downgrade webos?~~ no, now there isn't

[Xploder]

So my TV just updated aswell (girlfriend confirmed the update prompt... forgot to re-enable blocking). Really looking forward to an updated exploit to get back hyperion-webos. Please, if there's something I can help with, hit me up (LG C9, 5.20.15).

Maybe getting a new downgrade method working is easier?

Wouldn't homebrew app expire after some time since you need to refresh developer mode, or is it different?

I've got the same question. I'd like to use the Crunchroll app which doesn't exists officially and it's annoying to setup the developer mode and then the app again. Also the app on android doesn't support streaming to LG WebOS..

For those who are interested, there is a way to downgrade, updating to a test version that can be rooted and then downgrade.

Compatible models:

UM7050-UM7090, UM7100-UM7110, UM7300, UM7400-UM7490, UM7500-UM7570, UM7600-UM7660, SM8000, SM8050, SM8100, SM8200 (webOS 4.5)

1- Install the "Lg Service Remote Control" application on an android device with infrared and press the "in start" button pointing at the screen that opens a password section in which you have to write "0413" and within the configuration in the "System 2" section, an option appears with the name NSU Mode that must be set to "Engineering mode" and exit. 2- Change the location setting of the system configuration to "Other" in the first section and two hyphens in the second such that "--". 3- Once this is established and restarted, an update to version 30.05.09 should appear, if so, update otherwise NO. 4- Once updated, the rootmy.tv procedure can be done and later it could be downgraded following the existing methods to the version prior to patching.

Once the downgrade is done, you can disable "Engineering mode" and set location to whatever you want.

Tried it on my OLED55C9PLA but only got an option to update to 05.35.35 in the system software updater.

Thanks, it's works well for my UM7050 ! How old is this version 30.05.09 ?
