"Mobile TV On" doesn't work

[Cestmoi]

Any idea how to make this work? I have paired various apps including the LG Tv Plus app and I have also got "Mobile TV On" set to on. TV is connected via WiFi and also ethernet cable. However when I turn off the TV via any of the apps the tv then also disappears from the network thus I cannot access it to turn it on. I have tried to use Mobile TV On with just Wifi turned on or with just Ethernet Cable turned on as well as both but no luck either way. Any ideas what Im doing wrong here? Many thanks.

My TV is on software 04.70.20 and its model number is 55UJ634V-ZD. Many thanks.

I have observed the same thing.

Personally I don't care to mush about being able to turn on the TV from the app, but I want to be able to turn it on from my Home Automation (OpenHAB).
I have found out it does react to Wake On Lan packages, so that is what I'm using.

There is a number of WOL app for smartphones, you can use one of those I you want to turn it on from your phone.

Agreed LG should have WOL in there app...

Same problem, talked to agent, said it won't work because tv turns off the internet and in order for it to work it needs internet. I believe it's a development oversight or feature not included and yet it's on the menu, but they won't admit to it. That option simply should not be there in the menu.

Download LG ThinQ app from the Playstore and then give feedback

As @Siyabonga Tshabalala said.

Download and install LG ThinQ app on your mobile from the Playstore then you could connect your TV to your mobile and control it through them.

ThinQ seems to work sometimes depending if it turned off the internet module or not internally on the tv. Kind of sporadic functionality. At least off works which is usually more useful. not like its super hard to pick up the tv remote.
