Pulse Modification Package

When the Hisense Pulse was released, it shipped mostly insecure with "ro.debuggable" being set to 1 which allowed adb to run as root. So to make utilizing this a bit easier we've created a package of the most sought after modifications and created an easy to use install script.

Package features:

• Installs Superuser.apk and su binary to device.
• Patches flash player to allow content to be played from previously blocked websites (Hulu, Fox, CBS, NBC, etc.).
• Disables automatic updates to preserve root (can easily be reversed).

Instructions: The instructions below rely on you already having installed the android sdk and having easy access to adb

1. adb connect <IP_OF_YOUR_GTV>
2. adb root
3. adb connect <IP_OF_YOUR_GTV>
4. adb push location_of_pulse_root.sh /tmp/pulse_root.sh
5. adb shell
6. in the adb shell prompt, which should currently be displaying a "#" enter the following without quotes: "sh /tmp/pulse_root.sh"
