Getting started

From the project's README ("Instructions"):

  1. Set up Developer Mode.
  2. Connect to the TV with an SSH client. (If you need help, see the crashd guide. Dev Manager should also work.)
  3. Download autoroot.sh to any writable directory (e.g., /tmp).
  4. Run autoroot.sh (e.g., sh /tmp/autoroot.sh).
  5. Wait for the Payload complete message; the script should exit soon after.
  6. Before rebooting, uninstall the LG Developer Mode app.

Do not install the LG Developer Mode app while the TV is rooted!
