  1. This might serm like a dumb question but I was wondering in theory what can be accomplished if a tv is rooted? For example a b6 series oled on webOS 3.0, if it was rooted could we (in theory) unstall custom firmware or OS like a rooted handset? Would it be possible to create a fw that could add HLG hdr from latest lg update but without ruining perfect black (like the latest lg update did)? I have been told that realistically it will probably never be able to do this (basically fix lg's latest update without lg's help) since we cant unpack or decrypt the update file or cant sign the keys or use proper encryption.....idk?

  2. If you are talking about the awesome mxplayer android app, that would be a great addition but you would have to ask the app devs to make a webOS version as its not compatible with android (linux is only thing they share really).... Sent from my SM-G935V using Tapatalk
  3. Sorry buddy. Gotta ask DirectTV that question. Lg does not make the 3rd party apps on their platform just like google doesn't make the 3rd party apps on android. Maybe petition them to add webOS supported app. My guess is that as OLED grows in popularity then webOS support will also grow.... Sent from my SM-G935V using Tapatalk
  4. You should change title to something about an android emulator or workarounds to install android ".apk" apps or maybe google "converting .apk to .epk". Also there are some non-english sites that have a lot of info (had to use google translate) and one highly active russian site even has a section for questions in english.

  5. Dang. LG recieves more misplaced blame and gets less respect than any other tv company I've seen. I keep looking for a scandal or controversy in their past....a defining moment when they lost peoples confidence that would explain why they get near universal disdain from consumers. Its ridiculous to demand that a smart device mfr X add app support "from" content provider Y- "lets petition LG to develop an app that can use HBO subscriber database and account authentication to give consumers access to HBO content and distribute it on the tvs app store for them in HBO's name. HBO dont have any say because its LG responsibility..."- yet that seems to be the reaction from the majority of consumers when it involves LG. Also the purpose of smart tv's was always defeated as they have never matched the performance, responsiveness, or app and sw support of a smart 'box'.

  6. LG has no authority to make apps for HBO, SHO or anybody outside of LG really. The platform is there but its up to providers to support it. Good news is the more people that buy webOS the sooner they have to support it. Sent from my SM-G935V using Tapatalk
