This is why I disconnected my parents Roku tv from the internet last year, when they started to get updates that wouldn't download, and freeze the whole tv, i said enough is enough
You can do what you want for your goal, but to me, if you're using original hardware then modding it to look better than it did doesn't make it original hardware anymore.
It's like the question, if you have a car, and you replace every part of the car, is it still the original car?
