- user_7832 5y agoNot really a solution to your specific case but if you're using an old version of android and the Linux kernel you can look at known vulnerabilities and build through them if you're skilled enough. I also remember some people had gained root access on Sony phones for getting drm keys before unlocking their bootloader - because of a known Linux kernel exploit - you can try searching on XDA for that. Though be careful, because worst case you have a very fancy paper/deskweight.
- trevcanhuman 5y agoThanks for the reply, although unfortunately my TV is pretty recent, bought it new about 3 years ago and has been updated less than a year ago. I’ve looked through guides but I honestly haven’t found any good websites that explain any know vulnerabilities to recent Android TVs.
