So you’ve in the jailbreak mood and you’ve got a hankering for a job that requires not only hacks of your device on the inside, but physical changes on your outside as well. How about a Logitech Revue jailbreak, one that requires a NAND format, a soldering iron, and a completely virgin device – aka one that’s never even been POWERED ON before? Sounds like a challenge to me.

Check out this video and the rest of the instructions on GTVHacker for a thirteen-steep workthrough for you to get the Android Marketplace working on your Revue. This is a HIGH RISK procedure as you’re going to have to physically crack the case, download and install custom firmware, and get your Android Market on, additionally stopping those television network blockages you’ve grown to tisk. Check out the video below and the Steps to Get Root on GTVHacker.

    I really can’t see why anyone would want to jailbreak their Logitech Revue. It has enough features on it, and the Android Market on it seems kind of pointless when it is more or less designed for smartphones. I don’t see the point in ruining a $299 piece of technology. I purchased my Logitech Revue from DISH Network (I do work for them) for $179, and even though its cheaper, I still think that it is pointless to ruin it for one application add on. I am perfectly happy with my Revue and that is why I bought it, so I can do what it was designed for.
