WebOS TV Firmware version


Recommended Posts

I have a 47LB720T Tv in South Africa, running 04.62.43

My main reason for this tv is to stream Netflix and Hulu, and using UnoTelly I have this working fine. I was able to change the region using the IR LED and sound file hack, and could get into the Service menu fine, change region, download apps, and then change back to South Africa.

 

Now for the past few months, the TV has been telling me about the update to 05.00.15 however I have always denied the update. I have a feeling that if I update, I will probably lose the ability to access the service menu, change region, and will probably lose the apps that are loaded currently (or won't be able to update them when they need updating)
 

Can anyone confirm or deny this? In other words, from a streaming media/region code/service menu aspect, would this update make me go backwards, and prevent me from using those apps again?

 

Appreciate any advice.

05.00.40 firmware released for your TV, but I recommend NOT to update because new firmware is very bad (HDMI/ARC ocassionaly pop-up, revert back to TV speakers etc.)

Stay with 05.00.15 and enjoy :)

Hi Dejan,

Thank you for Information. I am still wondering about the rumors which said that in the Summer of 2015 webOS 2 will be available for the 2014 TVs. Does anybody know anything about it?

I have 42lb6500 05.00.20.. from philippines..cant connect to lg store or youtube..connected to wifi..said network unstable but i hav fast connection...pls help

It may sound stupid but check that your time is correctly set , I had an issue similar to this and found that it was due to having a different time zone set .

Good luck

Come on Kusie, put our minds at rest, is it going ok or are there any more bugs to report. You're a brave man.

I have just set it downloading for an install at a later date. if your comments are favorable.

LOL sorry pal, I have good news, still works fine with no popups so far, BUT i don´t have an AV via ARC attached, no external Receiver, no optical Connection to a Sound System etc... So the basic functions are OK, with no major Problems, at least non I have encountered..

Good to hear! Do you have anything else connected to hdmi on the TV? And did you have pop-ups on 05.00.40?

Hi,

 

Exactly how do you upgrade to a BETA firmware, i have tried to find out by reading posts and others webpages but i am unsure as to what process to do, some people are saying about using the firmware in a LG_DTV folder on a USB but this doesn't work and others are suggesting some sort of changing IP address etc.. but not sure if this is correct.....

 

Regards,

 

Robbie

Just a couple of questions Dejan,

1. Any picture improvement with the new firmware?

2. How are the picture adjust setting menu (less adjustment options on the later 5.00.** firmwares)

3. Out of memory errors (possible a little early for this)

Cheers Jonny

Happy new year to all

      I have a mediaplayer connected to my TV OLED55C6V through HDMI. For every video playback the player tries to select an output HDMI signal format automatically depending on both video framerate/resolution and framerate/resolution supported by the connected TV to show the video as close to original as possible with the TV without any scaling. And here I have a problem: the maximum resolution the player selects is 1080p despite of the videofile has resolution 4k and the TV supports playback of the input signal up to 4K60p. I can change the output signal resolution on the player manually after blayback starting and it works, but it's not convenient. As far as I know the only way of getting information about videosignal format supported by TV for the player is EDID on HDMI channel. So is it possible to fix the issue? Maybe some hidden setting in TV could change the version of EDID?

      webOS updated, I think to 2023, on my C2 a couple of days ago. Since then the News option on the Sky News app no longer works, instead timing out. The Weather and Climate options still work, though.
      I have deleted and reloaded the Sky News app, but the problem remains.
      Does anybody have any suggestions of what I might try to get this working again, or is this something for LG, or Sky, to fix?

      Hello,
      I have a problem with my new LG OLED G2 newest version 4 firmware.
      I tried sorting my satellite channels with chansort programm from github, because sorting them with the tv remote is a pain.
      When I try to sort them with the remote and have selected about 10 or more channels all the selected channels get suddenly getting deselected, so I can only select up to 10 at a time  to 
      sort them -> must be some kind of firmwarebug? 
      After exporting the channellist to a usb stick then editing it with chansort an importing it back into the tv all my channels are gone, all transponderns are deleted.
      First I thought it was a charsort problem but all channels and transponders get also deleted when I simply export them to a usb drive an import them back, without editing the file at all.
      Does someone know how to fix this problem? 
      And yes I´ve done multiple factory resets -> did not fix any of this behaviour.
      I also discoverd another bug the deletes all channels, because I needed to reboot the tv I searched for a reboot option in the tvs menu, but there is no reboot option.
      To do a full reboot (except from forcing it through cutting the tvs power) you can deselect the privicy agreements, after that the tv reboots, but then all channels are gone too.
