Rooting Sharp TV

by thox851441

Hi, I have Sharp LC-65UE630X Android build-in TV. I wonder if this TV can be rooted bcs so far I only see Nexus and Shield TV root bcs they are popular.

I wonder if root process is universal, and the tool is universal for all kinds of Android TV. It is quite tricky I think, because in phone there is a button combination for Fastboot etc. I wonder if there is any "universal combination" button for Android TV devices too.

Why do you need root access?

Are you having issues?

I just got a sharp 758003n with Android tv built in, I really like the idea of not having to have a separate box.

I use Chrome Kodi (and Lazyman addon for NHL)

Chrome is flat out not available!?!?. No Chrome on on android device wtf!

Kodi says it's available, but does not install.

Even if I did manage to get Kodi installed, the program (and others) that I use to change the host file is not available.

What's the use of having android tv if it's all locked down like an apple product?

Any further developments on rooting sharp tv's?
