WebOS TV Firmware version


Recommended Posts

No, good old LG AU/NZ - lagging behind as usual.  At the risk of sounding overly ranty, I got to say, LG simply suck as far as their TV's go, which is a pity because WebOS i think is a great platform that had potential - but their terribly support/updates, not to mention the complete crap they populate their app store with is just ridiculous, even something as well known/respected as Plex seems to be nothing but difficult on the LG platform.  It really is the end of their road for me.  Never ever again.

Hi Michael , 

Are you still speaking to LG NZ regarding the 55 firmware , may be they have not released here because of the issues you and others are having . I am still waiting a reply from them regarding the sound drop outs , was tempted to try the 55 firmware but it sounds worse than what I have and Im not sure how to downgrade safely if I need to .

Hi,

is 05.00.55 still the latest FW for the 2014 LB6xx Series or are there any new betas? While all the annoying HDMI popups and optical sounds dropouts are gone now, I also get lots of Wifi disconnects during Amazon Prime and DLNA Streaming from NAS with this FW ... C´MON LG, you can do better than this (in fact, you still have to convince me that you can do better than this...)

 

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..

Thanks but I dont have HDMI popups anymore, my problem is constant network dropouts on WLAN, like other users have reported, too.

Definitely seems to be a software/firmware problem ... so I doublt a reset would do anything.

 

I had this problem, but it is solved when I changed the router!!

Now I use ZyXEL VMG1312-B10A. No more wifi dropouts.

Before this ZyXEL I used TP-Link TD-W8968 and Linksys WAG160N. Both had problems with wifi dropouts.

Maybe this settings help if you have similar settings in your router..

I think I have a Wifi problem as well since 5.00.55. No disconnects but more like freezes for 15 to 30 seconds. My tv is connected to wifi only. I'll try a cable only to see if there is a difference.

 

Very important is that you have an excellent signal between the router and TV. If a bad signal, the speed decreases and the link loss occurs...

Hi all. I have an LG-49LF630V-ZA. Wondered if there is an upgrade I can download and manually install for this TV?

 

I sometimes like to watch some Spanish series online via the browser, but I can't watch series on RTVE.es "en directo" i.e. live, they just don't start. The TV seems to try and start the video, but it just sits there. It used to work so I wonder if the recent (well it was a few months ago) upgrade broke something. Form reading these forums, it sounds pretty likely.

 

Anyway, is there an upgrade file (or downgrade file) available for this TV? If so, can some kind person point me in the right direction?

 

Many thanks.

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 :)

People!

I do not understand your hunger for updating the Webos versions, "will we have webos 2.0 ?" ,  "how well it works webos 3.0?" and so on...

Let me tell you something: Webos 999.0 will never surpass at least Android 2.3 !

I have 47''LB730V from more than a year...time enough to play with it...installing , upgrading, downgrading...iptv...

after I bought android tv box: Tronsmart Orion R68 Meta with 2GB of RAM and 16GB of ROM, eight core processor... with Lollipop android...it was a huge change in my tv experience...I really do not understand why did I pay those hundreds of euros more for a TV with SMART functions while the android tv box costs 77 euros ?!

Android it is a universal platform...with universal support, feedback, apps...there is a big change in net speed, I can watch full HD channels from various app such as torrent stream controller or kodi, showbox... I have flash support, sopcast, latest html, wifi dual, ethernet that recognizes my 300 MBps speed...what can I say? The difference betwenn a Lg TV with smart and an LG tv without it is many, many times the cost of an android tv box... and will never ever forever equals it ! If I would buy a second LG tv will search for a non smart one...and attach it a android terminal! 

bie!

Agree at current.

Well, as time goes by, producing a non smart tv will be more expensive than smart tv.

Demand and supply.

By then, all TVs around will be smart. Boxes will phase out I think unless boxes are able to justify its existence.

      I used to be able to surf to OPB.org using WebOs on my LG Smart TV and watch the Livestream with no problem. But about a year ago something changed and the Livestream became covered up by the programming grid (with a little bit showing above the grid) and nothing I can do removes it. Is there a way to watch PBS on my LG Smart TV?

      Please take steps to include Airtel Xtream Play app in WebOS Content Store!
      In India everyone is using Airtel network and Xtream Play as a bundle recharge offer with it!
      LG TV is very good and technically advanced! For this mere reason of not having Airtel Xtream Play App, We Customers, need to switch over to other brands!
      So, it is mandatory and timely, for LG to make Xtream Play available in WebOS TV, otherwise you have to loose your trusted Customers like us!
         Please think twice and Consider!!!

      Hi, my LG webOS TV TN520S is running  software version 05.45.45 and since then the channel 4 and channel 5 apps are broken. You can start to watch a program but as soon as the first set of adverts start, the app just loops and you cant progress past the adverts. I a wondering if this is because the TV is running the latest version of its software (I've searched for newer versions but none are shown). Has anyone else had this problem and is it possible to install a previous version of the TV's software to see if this resolves the problem.

      SEOUL, Oct. 1, 2024 — LG Electronics (LG) announced the winners of its webOS TV platform hackathon, which took place at the LG webOS Summit last week. The event was geared toward AI-based solutions and gaming services, and sought ideas to enhance the gaming category on the Smart TV.
      Developers from around the world applied for the opportunity to present their ideas for apps or services to be used on webOS-based LG Smart TVs in millions of homes, with the goal of diversifying and improving the gaming experience on the LG TVs powered by webOS.
      Over three hundred entries were submitted from more than 50 countries. Finalists were invited to present their ideas onstage to a panel of LG executives and over 300 market-leading companies. The top three winners received a meaningful opportunity to engage with the LG team to develop their ideas and resources for business implementation on webOS. They will continue to work with the LG team to prepare the family-friendly gaming solutions for LG TVs by June 2025. Cash prizes were awarded to the top three winners of the hackathon, with the Grand Prize of USD 100,000 for first place, USD 80,000 for second place and USD 50,000 for third place.
      Grand Prize Winner: The Quest of Sunflower by Couchplay
      An epic adventure game based on an AI-generated story, featuring stunning graphics, immersive audio and responsive game play suitable for the whole family.
      Second place: Signs of Magic by Lukas Klingsbo
      Set in a magical world, this game follows the wizard Elowen as she battles invading creatures known as Astromentals. It integrates LG Magic Remote sensors to create an immersive experience that brings the action to life.
      Third place: Thormdeil: Into the Unknown by TV Games
      The first single-player RPG developed exclusively for a Smart TV platform, featuring seasonally AI-generated content. Players navigate dark dungeons, face survival challenges and uncover hidden truths.
      “The amount of participation and entries we received this year is proof of the growing interest in the AI and gaming categories,” said Chris Jo, senior vice president of platform business at LG Home Entertainment Company. “We’re no longer simply watching television. The developer ecosystem’s role in improving the lives of millions of consumers in their homes is exponential, and LG plans to hold this event annually to foster webOS app developer ecosystem.”
