    From what I understand, TVs are incredibly customized and locked down by design. Not only that, they change very often and by the time you make a cracked firmware, the TV is no longer in production.

    Is it possible, yes. Is it worth your time? Probably not but hey I would love to see it be done! Imagine TCL seeing a sudden uptick in TV sales because someone found out how to remove the Roku from the Roku TV.

    I’d be first in line!

      Are you aware that there are jail breaks for roku TVs?

      Smart TVs aren’t running on custom hardware in the way you seem to think.
