  1. Have you checked with Pickcel that the app will install on a TV as opposed to digital signage?
  2. You have tried everything! What is wrong with the app, tell the forum what is wrong and we may be able to help. Please remember to include your TV model number, firmware version and app version is at all possible.
  3. Have a look at the many other threads and see if you can pick out a fix that works for you: https://www.lgwebos.com/search/?q=This app will now restart to free up more memory
  4. Hi, I bet you know how to use a screwdriver as well as a hammer though! Have a look on eBay, a quick search brought a fair few results: 43UJ634V main board | eBay http://tinyurl.com/y4tun98a However, I would before ordering anything actually open up the TV and compare eBay pictures and any part numbers you can find. Hope that helps, from an enthusiastic DIYer and professional techno wallah.
  5. Some users have gotten around the issue by hotspotting with their mobile phones.
  6. No, firmware is specific to each model of TV.
  7. Can you make sure that you let Hotstar's customer support know your problems, and if you get any feedback let the forum know what it was.
  8. Have a look at this to see if it is of any help to you: https://sourceforge.net/projects/ajaxportal/
  9. Hi, The process of submitting an application to LG can be found here: http://webostv.developer.lge.com/distribute/app-submission-process/
  10. Probably a dumb question but have you tried another cable?
  11. While I do agree with some of your points (especially the entire HP fiasco) it is unlikely that LG are going to pursue KODI to produce an app for webOS. The market share of those users wanting KODI is going to be minute and there is little to no reason to think LG would recoup any investment they made in to an app. If KODI are not going to produce a Samsung Tizen app with their much larger market share of TV sales than LG, then I cannot see it happening for us. KODI end users could also go to the official suggestions page at LG (listed elsewhere on the forum) and ask LG to pursue the matter, as well as voicing your requests on the official KODI forum, if of course you have not already done so. LG probably may not be pursing partnerships strongly enough but, there is no real way of knowing unless someone at the company actually chimes in and lets us know. It is possible that developers do not want to spend the time and money producing apps for a platform that compared to others has a limited market share. At the end of the day webOS is meant to be relatively easy to program for being based around HTML5 & JavaScript. I am not sure what you meant about HBO GO, there is an app after all, it is that it is bad in some way?
  12. If you look at other recent posts on the forum you will see that Hotstar has released an app, its availability will be dependant on you region and possibly your model of TV. If you are in any doubt I would suggest contacting Hotstar's customer support to see if your model is supported, they are usually pretty good at responding. Of course you could always access the Hotstar website via your TV's web browser in the meantime.
  13. We are going to need a little more information than just a picture. Do you mean that you cannot turn it on? It is turned on but cannot find a network to try and join? Please expand on your previous post.
  14. Have you installed it, and if so is it any good?
  15. I am not aware of any non-Google Android Smart TV's web browser that supports Flash, and as it is being killed of by Adobe in 2020 it is not in anyone's best interest to keep using a hideously outdated, bloated, bug ridden, resource hungry piece of software that was superseded by much better technologies many years ago. It should be noted that while Google currently produces Pepper Flash for Chrome they to will be dropping support in 2020. https://www.androidpolice.com/2017/07/25/chrome-will-completely-remove-flash-support-end-2020/ As for not being able to watch Zee5 in the browser I would suggest contacting them to ask them if they are either planning to release a webOS app and when or when they are going to update their website to run with HTML5 (one of those much more modern technologies I alluded to earlier) which would be compatible with the webOS browser. Upgrading their website would be their best route, even Hotstar has upgraded their site recently to work with the webOS browser are many users contacted them to comment on not being able to view it on their LG TVs. Sadly companies that run large cumbersome websites reliant on out-dated software packages are loathed to spend the time and monies need to keep up with current technology, this is sadly their own fault and not that of LG.

  17. Hi, HBO Go is region dependant you will need to check if it is available in your area.
  18. According to other users Hotstar can now be viewed via the browser if that helps you at all.
  19. Hi Nick, I concur with PeterV both on DLNA & Plex. There is an interesting Pi distribution called DietPi that makes setting up Plex a breeze on the RPi: https://www.dietpi.com/
  20. I am sure that if Twitch feel there is a big enough demand for an app they will produce one, have you tried their developer forum?
  21. Ah yes after twenty years in the computer support industry myself it is amazing how many times the solutions of turning off/unplugging and turning back on again works.
  22. Hi PHS, You can start the conversation with the VPN software companies yourself, as this is a user-to-user forum you could let other people on the forum know how you get on and even post any contact details you acquire so other users can get involved. TVs that have or will have compatibility: https://www.apple.com/ios/home/accessories/#section-tv I would not hold your breath for compatibility to be released for anything that is already on the market or has been discontinued.
  23. Not all apps are available in all markets for all models of TV, please let the forum know where you are model of TV etc.
