;Yahoo Connected TV

:An SDK that comes pre-installed with the special Ubuntu 10.04 VM provided on their website and a DEB file, which allows to access it via [[VirtualBox]] or [[VMware Workstation|VMware]] . Then visit this page on the VM to download the ADK. If you already have a linux virtual machine or subsystem, or using Linux yourself, install the ADK normally, however remember to install the dependencies first.

==Non-smart TVs==

TVs with electronic/digital tuning (not to be confused with digital TV, digital switchover, or digital tuners) could date all the way back to the mid-1970s.  

Unfortunately, these programs have rarely been archived and emulated, if at all. Dumps of the units may or may not exist, and if so, as a manufacturer user update (ex. Emerson) or as a publically shared file shared by a user orignally intended for repairsmen troubleshooting a corrupted OS.

===Honorable mention===

A huge Samsung Orsay ROM collection containing almost all Orsay apps called ULango UserAppStore intended as a secondary app store has existed, but has been taken down sometime in 2017-2019 due to the ACE taking down the main site as it contained a pirated TV service. When contacted in late 2022 September, the owner said that the servers are in a court room waiting investigation and time is working for him, so he may or may not receive the severs, and even if he did the samsung apps may or may not have been deleted. He said that Tizen caused a lost in interest in the project. Update: All ROMs have been found on the original Samsung servers, and it is most likely the case that he used all the URLs on the original SamyGO URL dumps however this may be partial.
