Is my television broken?

Everytime when we are watching a program we like very much.
Suddenly appears on the left side of the screen some Recommended content.
It takes too great part of the screen, and besides that the content it shows is not what we like too.
I closed my account on the telly, but still it shows up every day.
I can not find a solution for it.

Youtube only lets you type numbers, and not letters. Amazon doesn't let you type anything unless you use the really really really slow onscreen keyboard. It's ruining the tv experience. Can't search for topics or shows without the slow drugery of the slow remote and onscreen keyboard.
Is something ms configured or is WebOs really this awful?

I can’t use my remote with the new update. 17. Something I think?
OK my 55” is a few years old but it was working fine until an automatic update on an unsupported TV! I mean, why update unsupported tv’s with untested software?
Planned obsolescence - making us upgrade? Well, it’s the last LG telly I will buy for sure

The Wi-Fi module in my LG TV, roughly 5 or six years old, (WebOS UJ6300) is apparently broken. I am looking for a solution cheaper and maybe more interesting than having the TV repaired. There are devices which will pick up Wi-Fi, convert it to ethernet, and deliver it to the male part of an ethernet port. In the past I have used such a device to provide Wi-Fi support to a desktop computer which did not have Wi-Fi support but did have an ethernet port. I forget the particulars, but it did work just fine. But a smart TV with Web 0S is not a desktop or laptop computer. My concern is how to provide the SSID and password to the device. My vague recollection is that such a device in a laptop or desktop computer can trigger a dialogue which requests the SSID and password. But will web OS provide such a dialogue? If I recall correctly, wired ethernet connections do not require SSIDs or passwords.
Thanks, Bob

Hi,
If you are going to sell televisions in Canada then your syustem should have access to the hockey app like SportsNet; this is rediculous!

Question
BananaBender
I have a 42LB650V purchased in the last 6 weeks. After about an hour of use the television becomes completely unresponsive. A change in volume takes about 10 seconds to register. Changing channel takes 5-10 seconds to respond. Switching between inputs can take up to 30 seconds. The settings page can take up to 30 seconds to respond too. It becomes almost impossible to page through the guide.
Is this normal, are other folks experiencing this? I'm sure this shouldn't be happening.
I got a firmware update at the end of October and that has not made much difference.
From a software perspective, it feels like a memory leak and the resulting poor performance is the OS itself trying to survive the resulting memory pressure.
Any guidance is most welcome.

Software update 04.45.04 solved my problem with Simplink slowing down my 55ec930v! Finally! A now happy user! I experienced it with a raspberry pi. In the Netherlands 2 versions of 04.45.04 exist on

I gave up. I exchanged it for a Sony. Fortunately I bought the LG from John Lewis in the UK and they allowed me to exchange it after 2 months.

With 2 recent LG webOS tv's ( 55UB850v and 55EC930V ) I had these problems as well. After an hour, both tv's remotes were responding much slower. Changing volume resulted 5-10 seconds in actually cha
