No The product depends on rooted firmware access, system-level replacement of the home screen, and rollback and firmware guards, which require embedded and security expertise.
What it would actually take: A real version needs knowledge of the webOS boot chain, root exploits for specific firmware versions, and safe system-partition modification with rollback that avoids bricking devices. Work on specific LG hardware and firmware variants, plus Tailscale networking setup, is required. This takes experienced embedded Linux and security engineers and a device lab.
