RootMyRoku | A persistent root jailbreak for most Roku devices

This is a precautionary measure to prevent the jailbreak from being disabled or removed. In the past, Roku has taken some creative measures to forcefully patch jailbroken devices. One such example was an update to the screensaver channel that would check for a telnet service, connect to it, and command it to un-root and update the device. Unfortunately, the servers used for channel and firmware updates the same ones used to communicate with Roku in general. Blocking updates means that no new channels can be installed and that certain features like "My Feed" and "Search" will no longer work. Applications that communicate with other services (e.g. YouTube, Netflix, HBO) will still work.
