Your Magic Remote Signal Is Unstable


Recommended Posts

Keep getting this message on the top right hand corner of the TV screen

"Your Magic Remote Signal Is Unstable"

There is a ton of lag, almost to the point where the remote becomes unusable, then it snaps out of it and works fine for 2-5 seconds then the lag comes back.

 

Other support forums suggested to hold down the back arrow and the home button simultaneously until the power button on the remote blinks.  I've done this, and it re-registers the magic remote, but it does not fix the lag.

 

I have also reset the TV back to initial settings, but still the lag persists.

 

Anything else I can try?

Hello , i have the same issue with my 55UH850V , the remotes lags like crazy when i open up netflix or youtube, and then the pop up msg on the top right side "your magic remote is unstable" ,,, i have just writen on lg forum on cnet ill copy it here for you, if you have any update please let me know.

"Hello,

I have bought the latest LG 55UH850V super UHD 4K and HDR tv, all was working perfect until i started using Netflix and youtube, the remote started lagging, barely responding as if the receiver was barely getting the commands or like i was 30 meters away, so i cleared all items infront the tv (didn't work), then unpaired the remote and paired again (several times, didnt work), shut down the tv 30 seconds + removed the batteries and changed them (typical call center advises,,, didnt work) , updated firmware for tv + netflix + youtube (didnt work) and so i called LG techs in to have a look and they brought in another remote with the admin remote, nothing worked and then they took photos of the notification "your magic remote is unstable" that keeps popping on the screen because they never faced this before and they sent this to their main office for advise, they asked me to take the tv in for observation, then later they realized that the seller i bought it from doesnt cover the warranty with LG and so i have to pay for all : visit 40 usd and what they think the issue "wifi module" 190 usd which i didnt order yet... then I contacted my seller and he refused to pickup the tv for repair without a box which I discarded when i got the tv (bad move) ...

So anyone has any idea what's happening and how to fix, since i am cornered here...

Please do advise

Thanks"

I Had this problem also and found buy making sure the TV was properly turned off each time I shut it down, then the TV and Remote always connect properly.

Go to Settings / General / Quick start+ (to OFF)

This will make sure the TV turns properly off and not just goes to sleep.

This fixed the remote control issue for me....

I replaced the batteries with brand new, right from the package.  Then I registered the remote by holding the back and home button.  Lastly, I went to settings, connection, mobile tv, and made sure both settings were disabled.  Fixed the issue instantly and permanently.

      Hey everyone,
      I'm new here, so first of all, hello I'm delos.
      I own two LG OLED55G19 TVs, one at home and one elsewhere. At home, I have a QNAP NAS (TS451) with DLNA functionality. Accessing it at home works great.
      The "Home" and "External" networks are connected via VPN. Thus, both networks have different network addresses.
      Now I want to access the home network from the external network with the LG via VPN in order to integrate the DLNA server. The LG doesn't "see" the external server because it's not in the same network. However, I wonder why you can't just enter the IP address of the server in the LG.
      Does anyone have a solution?
       
      Many greetings
      delos

      My magic remote and my Roku remote stopped working for turning off power so I performed a factory reset after troubleshooting to get the remote working.  I am now stuck at the 1st screen of the Factory Reset which says "Press the OK Button(wheel) on your remote."  Well... this really stinks because the remote doesn't work!!!  I have tried a USB mouse, a new magic remote, other LG Remotes with no luck.  I have also tried using the button on the bottom of the tv.  And, I contacted support which was just an exercise in redoing everything I had already tried... No Luck!!
      This is a Nano Cell 55NANO81ANA which is basically just a big brick now since I cannot even use any of the inputs.  Does anyone have a trick for getting past this initial screen???
      Thanks for the help.

      New OLED C3. New setup and I can’t change channels using tv magic remote- I have to use set top box remote. Verified setup with LG tech today and it is correct. Upon him checking for solutions he said there is a software bug that is not allowing the magic remote to change channels. Stated a fix is in works but doesn’t know when it will be available. Asked for a supervisor and was told one would call back in a few hours but they didn’t. I can return the tv now but was wondering if others are having this issue and for how long. I don’t want to get stuck with a tv with multiple remotes.

      Hi all, I am trying to find a solution to the native but complex "magic" remote control from LG. For elder or young people, this magic remote control with the OLED C3 TV is too complex or too busy (using a lot of unused keys. The new model for remote control is now either the Apple TV RC, the Android TV RC or the Google TV remote control. All these RC are small, easy to use with only 10 to 15 keys instead of the 40 to 50 keys. I saw that. in the past LG introduced smaller remote control (see below the first image LG AN-MR500) but I am not sure it is supported with the LG OLED C3. I also saw that the latest projector CineBeam Q comes with a small new RC (see bellow). This new white RC has only the necessary keys (max 10) and seems to be fine ! Also, the new C4 is coming seoon and I suppose it will include a new Remote Control but we don't know yet what it is ... Do you have an idea to solve my issue ?
