Hi all.....

again I am a samsung TV user for many years, but this time I desicded to try LG, I bought LG 65UF950T TV from the Dubai, UAE, but when I wanted to download Netflix, ITV Iplayer and BBC Iplayer, I couldnt, I tried to change the location but locations availabel are Africa and Middle East. I did factory rest but no luck. Any idea how can I change the location to some where in Europe or USA please. I am very disappointed with this TV.

 

Thanks

There's another site that has instructions on how to change the location. If you have a phone/tablet with IR you can download the app from the android playstore and it will allow you to change the location...just make sure you write down the original..here is the link on how to do it...I bought the tv in Germany and I was able to download apps from the US...if u :

Thanks KingP1n for your reply

I have read the link you mentioned, but is there other solution that doesn't require buying expensive equipment that I don't really need (harmony remote control).

Thanks

Just make sure what version you use it has an IR blaster built in (note 5, s4,s6 edge and samsung tablets have them etc). Download app it's a few $ ...open app and and go into the service menu...follow instructions on other link for correct code to use in order to enter the service menu....go into location and write down the original number for your location. Now change the location to US or whatever country you want...turn tv off...go into settings and find location. Here it's gng to ask you to input a zip code...I used a random zip from the states (i.e. 22132). Now the lg store sld populate and you must go into the premium apps. You also might need to create another lg account in order to access premium apps. If you use USA as location you can download pandora..iheartradio. ..Netflix etc....

KingP1n, at last I found a friend who has Samsung mobile and I download the app and it worked, thanks for your help.

Now I changed the region to UK, wanted to download Skype but couldn't, it's not in the LG content store/Premium/apps and games, do you know how can I download load Skype. Thanks

I haven't changed my location to US in awhile but I know for sure the European location has Skype in the premium apps....I have my current location to Spain and just looked in there and it does show skype for download....I'm not sure if the US location removed it but you may try the Europe location and see if it works....let me know...

      App menu icons order randomly change
      By Raus
      Hello, I know that other LG WebOS users have the same problem as me, but I can't find a solution on the web. 
      Perhaps one of you experts can help me.
      Shortly: manually sort the app icons on my LG Smart TV (OLED77C55LA) and place the “TV Channels” icon in the first position (on the left, to be clear). Before all the others (e.g. Netflix, PlutoTV, Prime, etc.), but when I turn off the TV for a few hours and turn it back on, I find the “TV Channels” icon in last position. 
      I have tried putting it in second position, third position and so on, but every time I turn it back on, I find it in last position.
      Can anyone help me?
      Thank you.

      Change Lay-out of the Smarthub
      By Hemant_5400z
      Hi All,
      I have an LG Oled65C554, I know I I can rearrange the apps screen. What I cannot seem to figure out is how to arrange/re-arrange the smart hub lay.
       
      On the left I have the Input and a scroll, however on the right side I have a BIG part that takes LG smart divices en IOT-devices which is empty as I don't have ohte LG appliances.
      I woul like to get rid of the right part on the screen or even better add my hoemkit devices to the dashboard(not sure if that will be possible).
      Anyone who got this working?

      Possible to change region on 65UM7300AUE?
      By SQLGuy
      Hello, I have a US mode 65UM7300AUE (Costco model) that I brought with me when I moved to France. I would like to be able to install apps from the French content store. 
      I can get into the service menu, but all the Country Group fields seem to be read only. Is it possible to change these?

      Thanks,
      Paul

      Request for a new option of "Sound Output" or a change of the existing options
      By jmk
      My LG TV : Model 75UM7000PLA
      The Problem:
      When I want to use my wireless optical headphones, I switch the TV “Sound Out” option to “Optical” or “Internal TV Speaker + Optical.” But when I do this, the TV sends a command to the Yamaha receiver that forces it to switch its input to Optical. This stops playback of my HDMI device connected to the Yamaha because the Yamaha input is changed.
       
      What I would like:
      Can LG update the TV firmware so that:
      1️⃣ When I select “Optical” or “Internal TV Speaker + Optical” in “Sound Out,” it does not cause the Yamaha receiver to switch its input source?
      OR
      2️⃣ Add a new “Sound Out” option that sends audio to Optical without sending a command to change the Yamaha input?
      OR
      3️⃣ Make the existing “Internal TV Speaker” mode also output audio through Optical, but without causing the Yamaha input to switch?
       
      Note:
      Disabling ARC is not a good solution because:
       
      Audio from devices connected to the Yamaha receiver still plays on both TV and Yamaha speakers.
       
      Audio from devices connected to the TV no longer plays on the Yamaha speakers.
       
      Thank you!
