Local Access 1.1.0

Adds the settings-preserving Core update contract. Saved module data and ON/OFF state are retained during reviewed updates. Use Unknown Core 0.8.2 or newer, open Updates, and review this release before applying it. Home's nested IPK updates in place; other modules retain their saved desired settings.

Use the attached module ZIP, not GitHub's automatic source-code ZIP.

Verification and prerequisites

Standalone source rebuilt and matched to the installable payload. Integration coverage is one owner-controlled LG C4 / webOS 25 TV; other models are unverified. Requires an already-rooted TV you own and independent recovery access. No firmware, rooting exploit, LG credentials or private TV data is included. Backups do not guarantee recovery from arbitrary root-code effects or power loss.

SHA256SUMS.txt verifies package bytes, not publisher identity. Retain the MIT license, Unknown Digital and Unknown Suite contributors attribution, and third-party notices.
