Will AdBlockTV break or brick my Smart TV?

Never. AdBlockTV strictly enforces non-destructive user disabling (`pm disable-user --user 0`). It NEVER uninstalls or deletes system files. Your TV remains 100% stable, receives firmware updates, and can be restored back to stock with one click.

Do Netflix, YouTube, and Disney+ still work normally?

Yes, completely! AdBlockTV only silences the ad recommendation engine and promotional launcher overhead. All your streaming apps, HDMI inputs, audio pass-through, and Dolby Vision features run exactly as intended—just much faster.

Is using AdBlockTV legal and does it void my warranty?

Yes, 100% legal. AdBlockTV uses standard Android Debug Bridge (ADB) protocols provided by Google. You are merely configuring package visibility on hardware you purchased and own, without unlocking bootloaders or voiding warranties.

Can I undo the changes and go back to stock Google TV?

Yes. AdBlockTV has a 1-Click 'Restore TV to Factory Defaults' button that immediately re-enables all original packages and resets your home screen in 5 seconds.
