I output the sound from my LG 75UJ657A to external speakers through a bluetooth connection, but it doesn't automatically connect to the bluetooth device when I turn the TV on. Whenever I cycle the TV off and, then, back on, the TV asks if I want to connect to the bluetooth device, and I have to select "yes" with the remote. My smart phone automatically connects to all the bluetooth devices I've set it up with. When I start my car, my phone connects automatically to the car stereo/phone system, and it does the same with other bluetooth speakers I have. This is what I want my TV to do. How do I get my LG 75UJ657A to automatically connect to the bluetooth device I've set up with it?

Hi everyone, I wish LG would consider updating their Codecs list or at least give us a way of installing this codecs in our TV manually. i know my TV is capable of playing a lot of stuff but i'm always stuck with "not supported" for most of the media i have. One of the most wished stuff i'd love to see is Added support for H.264 10bit (still very popular and used a lot) as well as Opus codecs (its a Free codec and its getting a lot use recently especially with H.265 MKV videos) Like i said, please add this codecs and more or at least give us a way of doing it ourselves. i know there might be legal issues and some codecs are payed, so just let us install it ourselves instead. Thanks.

I noticed since the last update of WebOS, it defaults to a screen with apps along the bottom rather than HDMI1 as before on startup. Even after going into the input settings and selecting HDMI1, it stills defaults to the other screen on startup. When selecting HDMI1 on the inputs screen, it has a red dot in the corner, which I would assumes means that's the selected default. But again, this seems to be ignored this on startup. Thanks.

I called Amazon CS and they said it is a known problem and has to do with a bug in the latest release of the app. "They are working on it". I don't now why they don't re-release the old version until they get their act together

Hi. What can I do to get my TV to use the full broadband speed that I've got available. My tv is a 55EC930V and is using a wired connection to my router. My broadband is currently running at 125Mbps. When I use any other devices such as a laptop, mobile phone, etc the speed using fast.com returns anything between 120 to 130 MBps. But, when I use the web browser on the TV, it always maxes out at 33Mbps. This value is reported by fast.com. If I use the speed test in the Netflix app, this returns approx 29Mbps. I never get anything higher, so what's limiting it? The same problem occurs for YouTube and that's the only other App that I've got installed. If the network board in the TV is supposed to be 10-100Mbps, why don't I get 100 Mbps? I know I won't get 125Mbps because LG never puts 1Gbps in any of it's TVs.

Guys, some ray of hope

I will do that tomorrow. Have a nice father's Day.

I called LG today. The tech had me change the location in settings to Canada, restart, and then back to US. That did not help. Then he was going to have me do a factory reset (which I already had done twice before the call), and so I asked him what he would have me do next if the factory reset did not work. He said he didn't know, upon which I asked him to please check if others were reporting this issue (it did not help that he never heard of SlingTV). After about 5 minutes on hold, he came back and said other customers have complained about this issue and factory reset (which includes signing out of SlingTV) did not help either. The technician said they will elevate the problem to the LG software engineers to work this out with SlingTV. Bottomline: LG tech support was not able to resolve the issue for me. Hopefully a future update will resolve the problem.

Signing out of Sling, or deleting the Sling app will allow you to go to the Home Screen like normal but as soon as you sign back-in to Sling, or relaunch the app, the loop starts again. So, it is only a temporary fix. If you launch Netflix from your remote keypad then go to the Home button, that seems to work too - until you relaunch Sling. I think this issue started after the last Sling update.

Nobody knows if LG is going to fix it, but honestly, the community already has. I'll summarize what I did which was based on everyone's helpful instructions above, meant for someone who knows little to nothing about telnet, ssh, etc. (If you are familiar with those applications, this will be a breeze. If not, just follow the instructions and search the web if you'd like to learn more about the commands used.) Note that most of these instructions are taken from https://github.com/RootMyTV/RootMyTV.github.io and may be slightly different depending on your TV. On your TV... Turn on your TV Open the web browser app Browse to rootmy.tv Slide the little "Slide to root" bar to the right if you have the kind of remote that lets you use an on-screen pointer or just press the number 5 on your remote Accept the security prompt The exploit will proceed automatically and the TV will reboot itself; choose to reboot a second time to finalize the installation of the Homebrew Channel (the TV may turn off instead of rebooting - if this happens, just turn the TV back on again) Your TV should now have Homebrew Channel app installed, and an unauthenticated(!) root telnet service exposed Go to the TV's network settings and write down its IP address Note that your TV must be turned on in order to connect to it remotely; when it's off, it's all the way off (although there may be a non-power-saving setting you can enable to keep the TV's operating system running when it's off so that it will turn on faster, in which case you might be able to connect to it even when it's off). On your computer... Enable telnet (sorry Mac users, you'll need to figure this out on your own) Click on the Windows Start Menu Type "Windows Features" and click on "Turn Windows features on and off" Scroll down to Telnet client and check the box Click OK Open a command prompt (Win+R then type "cmd") Generate an encryption key pair that will be used to connect securely to the TV Type "mkdir .ssh" to create the secure shell directory if it's not there already Type "ssh-keygen -t rsa -f .\.ssh\lgtv_rsa" (the file name can be anything you want, but that's what I used) Type "notepad .ssh\config" Paste the following contents into the newly created file: Host 1.2.3.4 User root IdentityFile C:\Users\yourusername\.ssh\lgtv_rsa Replace "1.2.3.4" with your TV's IP address you wrote down in step 8 above Replace "yourusername" with the directory name where your user data is stored Save the file and quit Notepad Type "type .ssh\lgtv_rsa.pub" (it will spit out some ugly text - this is your public encryption key) Select all the text and copy it to your clipboard - you'll need this shortly Type "telnet 1.2.3.4", where 1.2.3.4 is your TV's IP address you wrote down in step 8 above, to connect to your TV (No username or password is required to connect as the "root" user - we'll fix this security hole in a moment) Type "vi /home/root/.ssh/authorized_keys" Once the new empty file opens, type the letter "i" to enter insert mode Press Ctrl-V to paste in the clipboard contents, which is the public key generated in step 3 Press the "Esc" (Escape) key to exit insert mode Type ":wq!" and press Enter to write the file and then quit the editor immediately Type "exit" to exit the telnet application Type "exit" again to exit the command prompt Back on your TV... Open the Homebrew Channel Go to Settings (the Gear icon) Disable Telnet Enable SSH Server Enable Block system updates Reboot the TV Back on your computer, apply Tam's SSL fix... Disable telnet (follow the instructions in "On your computer" above but uncheck the box next to Telnet client instead of checking it this time) Open a command prompt (Win+R then type "cmd") Type "ssh 1.2.3.4" (not telnet this time!), where 1.2.3.4 is your TV's IP address, to connect to your TV (again, no username or password is required, but it's still secure since the encryption key you generated above is used) Follow Tam's instructions above, repeated here (I suggest copy/pasting the "wget" line from the browser into your command prompt window): (Now, if you're like me, the "wget" command will fail because the version running on the TV doesn't have the capability of connecting to secure HTTPS web sites. Skip to the Alternate Instructions if you have the same issue with the "wget" command.) cd /tmp wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/tf318/lg/main/update-ca-certs.sh chmod +x update-ca-certs.sh ./update-ca-certs.sh Alternate instructions If the "wget" command failed, follow these steps instead: Open Tam's script file in this browser in another tab: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/tf318/lg/main/update-ca-certs.sh Copy the text and then close that tab Return to the command prompt... Type "vi /tmp/update-ca-certs.sh" Once the new empty file opens, type the letter "i" to enter insert mode Press Ctrl-V to paste in the clipboard contents, which is the Tam's script Press the "Esc" (Escape) key to exit insert mode Type ":wq!" and press Enter to write the file and then quit the editor immediately Type the following two commands: chmod +x update-ca-certs.sh ./update-ca-certs.sh Whether using Tam's original instructions or my Alternate version, the TV will reboot (twice, maybe) and Plex should now open and be happy. At least mine was. Thanks again, RootMy.TV team and Tam, for all your research and hard work!

Press the mute button 5 times in a row with your magic remote Disable screen saver It's a hidden menu..... yup...

Ads? No. Stop LG, just no! If i pay to have a device i do not want ADS on it ok.

Hello, Is it possible to add the driver for external usb 3 gigabit ethernet adapters in the firmware to support them and get more network bandwith like on the oled TV C9 and CX (see https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RgJUUNCsHao) to give to the product the ability to play 4K hdr mkv remux of high bit rate blurays without stuttering (like gemini man or billy lynn for example streamed from Plex server with giga network) ? If you play the same file on direct attached usb drive, no stuttering at all and it's ultra fast to load and fast forward for example. It already supports external usb2 FastEthernet adapters with ASIX AX88772 chipset and work well on both type A and type C ports, I have tested it, but it is also a 100Mbit/s adapter like the integrated one, so same bandwith, and stuttering is always here. The driver that need to be added to the firmware is the one for the usb 3 gigabit ethernet adapters with ASIX AX88179 chipset like on oled C9 and CX, but no luck, at least with firmware 3.0.0.8 it is not supported, eihter with type A ports or with the type C port (I have tested both, RJ45 leds stay OFF, the same with a power usb 3 hub in between, driver not included in the firmware). I have also tesed usb3 gigabit ethernet adapter with realtek RT L8153 chipset, wich is seems to be supported on older oled C7 and C8, but it is also not supported (blinking leds this time but no connection, driver not included in the firmware). This is very frustrating for a 1800$ product !

Hey, I had some compatibility problems with REACTJS and ENACTJS, with the older versions of Webos, for example 3.0. I had to abandon these frameworks and rewrite much of the code in pure Javascript. For this reason the progress of the project is a little slow. I hope to launch a functional version in the second half of this year. I appreciate the remembrance and encouragement.

I'd like a fast accessible shortcut to turn off the screen, eg. when pressing settings, a button on the screen. Or even better, the possibility to configure the speaker off button on the remote to turn off the screen instead. It should work independently of the energy saving feature, so that energy saving is not set to off when the screen is turned on again. The existing procedure to turn off screen is to complex press settings, press all settings, press energy saving, press off..... and when the screen is turned on again, the energy saving is set to off, and not to the previous value (eg. auto). OLED65C7V-Z

LOL!

If you use the voice function on the remote and say "screen off" it will also turn off the screen, this seems to be the most efficient way of doing it I've found so far. There needs to be a shortcut button on the remote!

Absolutely agree. I've been having trouble with this so much that i started watching stuff on my Tablet instead of using my brand new TV! Come on LG, add support for more Codecs it's never bad to have more support, never. it's actually always good.

I agree. I´m trying to use IPTV apps and I have problems with some channels because use codecs like H.265, not present in my TV (49UJ6560 with WebOs 3.5)

+1 Please enable vpn support.

All my channels have gone. Firstly it started with a bad broken image and sound in a few changes. Then some disappeared. I went to do a automatic tuning to see if I could get them back. Eventually instead of recovering the missing ones I lost all channels. I have retuning, replugging and even reseting the TV and nothing.... I phoned LG and they did remotely everything I did do, and no results. They told I need to repair my TV. How is that possible? One day all normal and then all gone..... Please can any one help me ??? Thanks Cris

will it do available store for pf50kg?

The app is great and I have purchased it for life, thanks so much!

Hey! To get BBC iPlayer, try changing your TV settings to the UK and use VPN. I have tried PureVPN It worked for me,. plus they are have some discount also, www.purevpn.com/order

You should also add that all OLED TV's have an embedded "screen saver" that cannot be turned off. It is there to prevent image retention or "burn-in" but that prevention method interferes with a lot of apps, especially Plex. Whenever I use Plex to play music from my central media server either via Fire TV or directly in the LG WebOS software, it will time-out after about 20-30 minutes, When that happens, it disconnects Plex from it's source (my central NAS) and creates an error that can only be corrected by rebooting the device. It does not happen on regular LED TV's which makes sense since they are not susceptible to image retention or burn-in. Usually the remedy is to make sure the image on the screen changes or refreshes after a period of time and with Plex music, that happens about every 3-5 minutes when the song finishes playing and the next one loads. So I really don't understand why LG keeps this onerous screen saver in place. Please remove it or allow the use or the Plex app to disable it.

Thanks for the confirmation. It's good to know that it's not just me! I'm a bit bewildered that nobody at LG has noticed or fixed this bug yet.

Yup, I guess their thinking is based on the sync box pricing. It's funny that Hue Sync app for Mac and Windows is competely free (for now) and that's why the TV app feels like ripoff.

Guys, please advise how we can stream the FIFA World Cup on LG Smart Tv? Jio Cinema has won the exclusive rights and it would be an absolute shame if we are not able to watch the biggest sporting event in the world on our smart TV. Nullifies the entire purpose of a Smart TV. Kindly get this addressed.

@filfae Yes, I finally managed to enable PVR and Live TV functions and everything is working fine! I don't know the meaning of the Energy/Country Code at Toolopt6, what I could understand is that changing them will enable/disable various options in the TV software - I believe they refer to the different TV models and to the Countries in which they are sold. I also think that different TV models have different toolopt6 "class" codes, meaning the first two or three digits in the code. What I suggest you to do is to take a screenshot of the default code on your TV, then search for a screenshot (you can probably find it online or asking on this forum) in which the code has the same first 3 digits but the "DVR Ready" switch set to ON and, VERY IMPORTANT, all the other options set the same as your TV. Selecting a code with random options settings could result in malfunction or damage to your TV: I was lucky because the first time, even if I typed in a wrong code for my TV and it deleted the Magic Remote support engine and some other minor functions, as I later typed in a correct code of the right class of my TV, a software update was released that fixed the problem, and everything works great since then. When you find and type in the correct toolopt6 code for your tv, then you must change the geographic area in the options menu to a country in which DVR is enabled, and the channel list is the same as Italy. I selected Estonia and it works great. The only issue is that I had to turn off automatic time zone selection, so twice a year I have to correct the time manually. Hope it will help you.

I have completed my first TV app. It does its job very well: display on the TV, in REAL TIME, the GPS track of my excursions in the mountains. From home my family can therefore follow me, for my safety since I almost always go alone in the mountains. The next step would be to switch from the "developer" mode (the current one) to a "production" one. But I think that the LG store does not accept this app because it is too personal: it is not a video game with 10000 downloads! Furthermore, they could object to privacy issues. So how to make this app "definitive" (installed on 2 or 3 TVs at the most) without having to renew the extension of the developer mode every 40/50 hours ? Is there no other way than going through the LG market? Thanks for your attention

Hi Karin On Thursday, September 1 ABC audience support sent me the following message: "We have released an update today, version 6.2.0. Can you please ensure you have this version installed and advise if the problem persists?" The update has resolved the issue for me. Hopefully it will also resolve your issue. Regards, Peter

I would like to be able to access my network drives without using DLNA. It should look just like a USB drive.

If anybody finds there remote don’t respond or stops responding and your in a bar with a juke box,we found as soon as we power down the jukebox which is around 10 meters away it will work perfectly,or cover the sensor where LG sign is and will work perfectly.

would be nice to have NBA app.

Great! Well done - please keep us posted.

Oh my god. How can this be so freaking difficult. Why can't the user set the default audio out, I am having the exact same issue, when I disconnect my BT headset it goes to internal audio.

I am a new LG customer that purchased recently a 75QNED TV. The folowing are desired functions that are missing for in the TV usage: I would like to be able to define my default sound out. Today it is the TV speakers but I would like to change it to Optical + TV speakers. Turning on my bluetooth headphones generates a screen message in which I have to confirm my sound transfer to headphones. It is desired that I"ll be transfered to headphones automatically with no confirmation. Turning off my headphones should bring me back to default sound out that was defined by me. (See 1.) I would like to be capable to generate private menu (My Menu) from the different options that you have in settings. I think that 10 such options will be sufficient.

i can not find fimware with 43LX761H, help me please, thanks

webOS 6 needs to be made available to all existing LG smart tv's. The lack of updates for older models will damage LG in the long run. A tv is not the kind of item people want to buy every year or so. If LG won't support the 2 smart tv's that I've already bought then my next one will be another brand. Also support for developers is pretty bad. The documentation needs a whole lot more information, it is not kept up to date and the component manager can't pull updates as LG's servers are no longer available.

Does LG staff ever respond to any questions? I have same question, please somebody help, there is no similar satellite with the Yahsat angel in the list. Can we do it with other satellite?

Great .. But it it is good to have education related apps in LG Content store.. like Udemy , Linuxacademy, edureka.. and many more..

I had the same problem. It turned out that the tv was auto detecting a different router in the house that required a password instead of the one it was directly connected to that did not require a password. I just unplugged the other router. The tv then auto detected the correct one and the user agreement downloaded.
