Some of the things:

* How to enable Telnet on samsung TV's
* How to enable Telnet/NFS/CIFS/SAMBA
* Enable Serial Console on non CI+ Devices
* Manually flashing images via telnet or console (without the need for XOR and CRC32)
* Open backdoor for fixing bootloop situations
* Mounting an NFS share on a USB device to bypass DLNA
* Mounting an CIFS/SAMBA share on a USB device to bypass DLNA

There is a link to their Wiki page which have details about that.
