Just for your amusement this is an example of the level of control I have on ALL LG TVs: the menus you see are custom made.

I've just downgraded as well luckily I left the LG updater file on the PC. Just a shame I liked the speed of the new firmware and I was hoping the issues would have been solved, I use the simplink for Raspberry Pi control.

Until the next update if any. Maybe if we all contact LG they may listen, we can but hope.

Cheers Jon

Would/could a kind person please supply me/us with the instructions on how to downgrade. Have tried various links to russian forums but seems very complicated. It would be great if someone who has gone from 5.10.02 to version 4.xx.xx could provide a step by step guide. i am quite confident with pc's

Many thanks in advance for the kind soul who takes on this for me.

ps i am sure others would love a simple guide also.

Let me see... It looks simple but that was not how I did it, Your way is to downgrade to original firmware 03.23.13 and .epk is located on

link hidden, please login to view
. I had to manually check the update to get file "in_dump" to clarify TV model, later copy and edit empty file for tv model and .epk file location and set force flag to Y to force downgrade. Finally when that was all done the TV accepted the version of .epk I copied. Your way is easier but probably people are having trouble finding the correct file for their TV model, that is why the update is not detected.

Why do you have edited your post... Please, do not write stupidity, it's not true what you said. You don't know, guessing and doing unnecessary confusion. First test it on your TV then talk about it.  :huh:

 

Read with understanding. My way is to downgrade to the first firmware TV [#11] not to 03.23.13. People do not have to look any firmware - they can do it if they need to install custom firmware like beta or official from LG support site. If not, after Restart TV [#12]  they can just use Check For Updates option to upgrade firmware by OTA as David Isom did it. Update was not detected because in Updater lacked support for higher TV models and I had to update it. I wrote to you about it, but you come back to this topic to edit your post... And finally and above all - We're here to help each other, not to do confusion and destroy work of other. Don't do it anymore and Stay in Peace.

I have an LG 49UB850V.I had the same update today (5.00.04)and i was happy with it, but after some use the OS restarted itself 2-3 times in 2 hours.After more usage i had these problems: could not change the program after ca 1 hour of watching, no infobar popped, and the "P" switch on the MR500 was also not responding, switched to HDMI 1, but could not switch back to TV, menu was slow as hell, if it worked sometimes. I found the downgrade tutorial, and that helped me(thanx SIMON)and now i'm back at 4.55.55. It's a shame LG put an update like these OTA, do they not test these OS-s before release? I mean i can live with some minor bugs, but a TV that don't change chanels and restarting because of low memory...thats a no-go. An ex-customer

It would be interesting  to know the connections and settings people are using who are having memory reboots . ie simplink ARC , HBB TV,wireless , Then others who don't have these problems might be able to compare and help . Also are people resetting after update ?

LG47LB670V

 

Updated to 5.00.04 from 04.65.05 via Android app.

Region: Macedonia.

 

It's not faster.

Streaming from my phone gave "needs to close to free some memory" at every 3-rd video clip.

I couldn't even stream a low deffinition video of 300Mb from my PC, it restarts after 30 seconds. Previosely it was closing only on big size movies, above 5Gb.

 

Shame on you LG

Yes, I've done factory reset even twice because what I was experiencing was bulls$%t.

What do you use for streaming videos?

I use Servioo.

(Sometimes Plex, but it has subtitles issue)

Can you watch a complete full HD movie in size of 6-9Gb?

      Sky News stopped working after the webOS update
      By Roy Brown
      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?

      WebOS on LG Cinebeam HU915QE
      By quentar82
      In the specifications of this LaserTV it is shown that WebOS 6.0 should be installed on this device.
      The latest Device Firmware Version is 3.01.02 and i am missing the RTL+ App (Germany) which should be available with WebOS 6.0 
      So any info when there will be a "real" WebOS 6.0 available on the Cinebeam HU915EQE?

      EDID version of OLED55C6V or supported resolution detection
      By dolbnya
      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?

      all channels and transponders are getting deleated by simply exporting and importing the channellist (LG OLED G2 newest firmware)
      By SailorMoon
      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.
