  1. Hi,

    Enthusiastic users installed 05.10.x, I am curious to know what is the WebOS version displayed under about TV menu ?

     

    Hello Jai

     

    Model - 42LB650V-ZN

    Software version - 05.10.02

    webOS TV Version - 1.4.0-2502 (afro-ashley)

     

    BTW My enthusiasm stems from fact that before upgrading to 05.10.01, my TV from novelty was useless, every day more and more irritated, I was tempted to throw it away or sell. Now, after many months, TV really works as it should when I bought it. And I don't have any problems after this update.

  2. Yes, it is quite simple.

    - Go to future menu by pressing the last card from the main menu;

    - Find your app;

    - If you are using magic remote put the cursor over your app and an arrow will appear above the app;

    - Click on the arrow. The app will pop out from the line. From this point you can rearrange the apps or you can delete the apps by clicking the X from the top of the icon.

    No it isn't simple guys. 

    These icons are just shortcuts to installed applications.

    Removing them does not uninstall applications from TV.

    To remove installed applications, you must reset TV to factory settings - very stupid, but true.

  3. Tried to update 5,10,02 but not recognised when usb pluged in. Strange.

    I made the LG_DTV folder put the software in and pluged into TV.

    Smart share opens with dtv folder showing.

    Also App closed to free up memory every 5-10 mins.

    O man I'll hve to downgrade later. ;(

     

    Bad news, Jon. :/

    Which applications do you mean? Have you tried to restore factory settings?

  4. I am almost certain that this is not the reason, considering that i already have the 5.10.01 version!

     

    You're absolutely right. I think you must wait for next update for your TV.

     

     

    So am I right in thinking the LG630-LG870 quote is for all models between this range. I have the LB731V-ZE and I'm a little nervous of installing beta software.

    Cheers Jon

     

    Right Jon.

     

    BTW LB not LG.  ;)

     

     

    Guys i checked on official site of India region beta firmware is not available for LG 42 LB750T

     

    Since beta version isn't official version?  :P

     

     

    Hello everyone .

     if I upgrade to fw 05.10.02 I'll see Cyrillic characters?

     

    I will check, wait a minute...

     

    Updt: Everything looks right with cyrillic.

  5. Can people stop asking for Flash?

    Flash is dead. Don't ask for tech providers for Flash compatibility, ask for web devs to stop using Flash!

     

    Oh, seriously? Therefore, please write to devs and ask them to stop using flash. - We'll be grateful to you.  :D

    Meanwhile, flash still not quite died, so thank you very much for your teaching and here we are talking about webOS firmware.

  6. Thank you Simon

    I have updated to 5.10.01

     

    Have a nice time with your LG azizout .  ;)

     

     

    Thanks for link to this version 5.01.10.

     

    I had got seriously fed up with the sluggish nature of webos 1, so much worse than the previous LG smart tv os. So much so i was on the verge of selling this tv at a hugh loss just to get something useable.

     

    However ...... this update is a MASSIVE improvment. Much quicker channel change, and the missing info banner on change is now there. Boot up is quicker, switching between apps ( once they have been started initially ) is instant - impressivly so

    Quick menu is 'quick' now.  It feels like a completely different tv.   :D :D :D :D :D  

     

    Just to balance my input the negatives are TV GUIDE is still too slow load up to be used( however 'Programmes' is quick but just displays current, rather than NOW and NEXT ) Advanced settings are also slow, but being objective this is isnt used that often. Initial boot of apps switches to a blank coloured screen rather than the app front screen such as Netfllix, Amazon etc ....

    Some of these issue's may be Beta related anyway.

     

    Overal - a much happier LG Tv owner this week. :)

     

    05.10.01 Gulfstream2000.  ;)

    Anyway, nice to see that you are happier after this update. And you're right, it's now completely different, much better TV.  :D

     

     

    Hi guys

     

    is Flash player working with New Beta Firmware ?

     

    Hi kanwar80. Unfortunately not. Maybe soon in final almost 2.0 version.

  7. Simon, how did you get the version 05.10.01

    was it through auto upgrade or manual download and usb upgrade ?

    If through manual download please submit the link

    regards

     

     

    Hi magdymans. You must do it manually - read my previous post for instructions. 

    Here is download link: 05.10.01 *for HD LGLB630 - LB870 / EC930.

     

    *For UHD LG available here: 05.10.01 for UB850 - UB980 / UC970.

     

     

    Regards

     

    *Updated 24.08.2015

  8. Might not risk the usb update just yet. I'll wait to download from tv

     

     

    It's very simple and safe Jon, don't be afraid. Just make LG_DTV folder in memory stick, put firmware file in folder and connect USB stick to TV. Your TV will automatically detect updates, now accept it and wait a few minutes. Restart TV and that's all. Installation progress can be tracked in General > About TV.

  9. Anybody tried install?

     

     

    I have installed on my 42LB650V and everything is working properly. All menus works much faster and smoother than in all previous versions. Finally, after many earlier updates, webOS in my LG became useful. Do not install 4.65.50 or older, it does not make sense. 05.10.01 is the one for which we waited for so long. Just install it and have fun with your LG.  ;)
