Changed

  • Disabled Launch/Uninstall button on Homebrew Channel application details page
    to prevent accidental removals. Homebrew Channel can still technically be
    removed by long-pressing its icon on home screen, but this will of course
    break most of root-related functionality and prevent further rooting until
    factory reset in many cases.

Added

  • Added "webosbrew.org Non-free software" repository switch - this may contain
    software that is distributed under non-free/open source licenses. This is
    disabled by default and can be enabled in Settings.
  • Added automatic updates of startup scripts. Homebrew Channel will now check
    checksums of known startup script paths against known list of "official"
    scripts and automatically update them if they match, or show a notification
    when a manual intervention is needed. (when a script has been modified)
  • Failsafe mode will now be automatically disabled after 15 seconds and an alert
    to reboot will be shown.
  • authorized_keys file permissions are now fixed up automatically on boot.

Changed

  • Application name is now rendered in "Application installed" toast messages
  • Homebrew Channel icon is now properly displayed in toasts/notifications
  • Startup script will now use /tmp subdirectory for dummy telemetry blocking
    directory to reduce leftovers after Factory Resets of rooted devices. Updated
    list of blocked telemetry paths.

Fixed

  • Startup script shall now be ran only once (courtesy of @stek29)
  • Fix root password authentication on webOS 1.x-2.x (courtesy of @ledoge)
  • Rebuilt ssh-related binaries to support webOS 1.x
