Thanks Tema, if I understand properly I have to make my tv believe my laptop is the lg update server with some software and some DNS trick. Unfortunatly I am on a Mac so not sure it will work.. seems rather complex as well most likely going to wait for the official update too bad we can't simply update from a Usb key. but thanks anyway

if someone's doing it and is willing to share is IP I will be happy to use it as DNS and update my tv ;-)

ok I did from my virtual machine it worked! thanks so much for your help! Tema

hi again! it seems that now can't access the lg store and log into my account.. not sure if directly related to the update or if because it is a beta not yet public version.. any idea?

This is not a beta software. You ought, to no problem after any update.

Try update via USB. Folder LG_DTV.

Link to the update may be found in the file \заготовки\online\your_model\HE_DTV_****_AFAAABAA

What is the procedure to update via usb? copy the file into a disk then connect to the tv? thanks again.. the problem I have when I try to either open the store or register my account is that it say that I am not connected to the internet (error 4) but I am connected (webbrowser, youtube and other online thinks work only the lg store and account manage\log in get a white error page after few minute saying not connected to internet)...

_{Procedure to update via USB is:
1) Make in USB disk, folder named LG_DTV
2) Copy firmware *.epk in LG_DTV
3) Connect USB disk to TV}

 

_{For LG store.}

_{Make sure you take all agreements with LG and check if there an error in the address of the DNS server. Verify that no error in the country to use the TV.}

_{In a pinch, call service support.}

Thanks vkomitov will try to update through usd. when I get home! and I will report back (FYI I did check the dns settings for the wireless connection in the network section of the tv setup menu it is fine, I did accept all the agreement "from the about menu" and try different country with no luck...)

ok seems that they was some outage in their service as when I tried again when I got home everything's was working fine again! thanks to everyone for the help!
