  1. Hi,

    is 05.00.55 still the latest FW for the 2014 LB6xx Series or are there any new betas?

     

    Thanks,

    K.

     

    This is latest...

    No hdmi popup issue with 5.00.55. Maybe something left from previous firmware..

    Please unplug power cord, plug in, turn tv on, then reset your tv to factory settings and set all again..Power cycle and then try..

  2. not using browser. Propably i was using viaplay app at the moment. Several other apps was open in a backroud, netflix, yle areena and youtube. Maybe it was compination of several apps. Maybe too many app open??

     

    Unfortunatelly, I can confirm bug "this app will close to free...bla bla bla.." will popup after ~3-4 hours youtube, netfilx, hdmi/live tv, and smartshare. Then you must reboot(off/on) tv for the next 3-4 hours of happiness  :rolleyes:

     

    05.00.55  :(

  3. 05.00.55 installed on 55ec930v. Best firmware so far for me. I have tried about 10 different firmwares last year. Tested for a few hours.

    No memory leaks

    No hdmi cec/simplink problems

    No hdmi arc disconnects

    No hdmi pop-ups

    I did not test the browser because I don't use it.

    Finally a decent firmware for me

     

    I can also confirm that this firmware is a bit faster

  4.  

    Yes..

    In short line:

     

    1. format usb flash stick to fat32

    2. make folder LG_DTV

    3. Copy .epk file to this folder

    3. Safely remove usb flash from computer

    4. connect usb flash stick to usb in tv (any usb)

    5. when update message pop-up click to "Install" and wait about 5-10 minutes to final message about sucessful update popups again something like that in top right corner  "new software is installed and will be applied when next turn off/on tv.."

    6. now you can turn off tv with remote controler and unplug usb flash

    7. turn tv on and wait 1-3 minutes

    8. youre updated :)

  5. Are there any betas for the us version of the 42LB6300. I have version 05.00.45 installed a few weeks ago and it's total crap and LG support is absolutely no help. ARC constantly drops out, HDMI notifications pop up on the screen randomly. Why can't basic tv functions work? Never buying LG again.

     

    Sorry, no test/beta for US. Just wait new update.. soon..  :huh:

  6. I know that but I dont wont any 5.. firmware because they messed with picture quality and it is much worse than version 4 firmware .. Nothing much improved at all. So I red that  04.55.40 version has good picture and I wanted to try. 

    If somebody has it please post link!

     Thanx!!!

     

    From personal experience, after numerous tests from the first firmware version 3 up to the latest versions of the firmware 05.00.55 I can confirm that there is absolutely NO difference in picture quality. If it is possible to notice a difference image is just better, not worse. The only difference is that version 3 and 4 suffers from the problem of "Out of memory. App is closed." and it was resolved in first 05.xx.xx. Also, all versions 5 are faster, prettier than 3 or 4. LG added some cute options of advanced webos 2.0 in first test/beta 5. Older versions have been slower, applications were considerably slower and suffered from a leak of memory problems..

  7. Otherwise, I do not understand why the LG announced 05.00.40 firmware for LB630-LB870, EC930 Europe models because this firmware has problems with HDMI / ARC 

    I recommend to all who have not yet installed the problematic .40 firmware to postpone and stay on .15 firmware...and wait next official. Hm, maybe .55 will be the next official  :D

  8. LG sells its devices by region and for each region there are applications that differ from other regions. Therefore, it is not advisable to install the firmware from another region. It then makes a problem because the system of broadcasting TV programs is not the same, applications are not the same, so it is very possible that it can totally destroy the TV or to a state that is not working properly..

     

    The safest way is a regular online update..

  9. When you say Europe I suspect this is then for the 55EC930V and doesn't work with the 55EC930T, correct ?

    Ta

     

    Yes! 55EC930T is Australia/New Zealand model! 55EC930V is Europe model.

    Latest firmware for "T" models is 05.00.35 and i do not recommend install europe models firmware, unless if you wish messed-up TV :)

    Latest firmware for your model is 05.00.35 and unfortunatelly this is firmware with HDMI/ARC problems. No fix..yet  :unsure:

    For Europe models this problem is solved in 05.00.55  :rolleyes:

  10. For best picture and quality perfomance please try my settings for LB630-LB870 and EC930,as follows:

    Some settings are not available in picture setting. Do not let that upset :)

     

    Other tips:

    In General settings please switch "Settings Help" to "Off" to speedup Settings Panel

    In Accesibility Pointer Options settings please set Pointer Size to smallest. This will reduce "ghost effect" around pointer in pure black screen/radio mode or similar

     

    After every Firmware Update, please Reset to Initial Factory Settings, then apply my settings :)

  11. HI Dejan,

    Thanks for the hard/brave work!

    I'd like to install 05.00.55 as I am going nuts with the audio switch issue of 05.00.35, however I can't find the link for the brazilian version (the link you provided was DVB, I guess it should be ATSC instead).

    would you have the link for that too?

    cheers,

    Gustavo

    .35 is latest for Brasil region. Keep calm and wait new version

    Please don't install europe version because you will lose access to some apps!Just stay with Brasil ver.Changing region firmwares is not recommended..

  12. Okay, i hope they release a new firmware soon, i am so annoyed at the lack of support for the ARC/HDMI drop outs they are actually doing my head in, i have seen some people using 05.00.55 that appears to have fixed it but trying to get hold of this for my TV is a hard task lol

     

    Regards,

     

    Robbie

     

    05.00.55 is for LB models...I hope LG will post new firmware for UB models soon...
