Hello there!
Recently the prime video app started to require the update to open, and now i am having a problem, because this app update REQUIRES to a system update of firmware (to webos24),
but it will make impossible to homebrew later.
So, can someone at least provide the last or update ipk of amazon (amazon.ipk), so i can install manually?
Thanks!

To compete with Samsung’s Frame TVs, LG announced it’s getting into the space with LG Gallery TV.

In just the past couple years, the that’s been dominated by Samsung’s The Frame has seen growth, with additions from both TCL and Hisense. Now LG has announced its own entry, the LG Gallery TV. The TV will leverage the Gallery+ service that LG released earlier this year, which includes thousands of display visuals ranging from pieces of art to cinematic images to gaming scenes. Much like Samsung’s Art Store, Gallery+ has a limited free option, but its full capability requires a subscription.
The new Gallery TV shouldn’t be confused with the G Series OLED TVs, like the , even though the G Series used to be called the Gallery Series up until a couple years ago. The Gallery TV is a mini-LED TV with “a specialized screen that reduces glare and minimizes reflections for an art-like viewing experience” (so it likely has a matte coating). LG hasn’t specified the backlight configuration, but all of the other art TVs use edge lighting, so it’s a safe bet that this one will as well. OLED technology, while offering superior picture quality to mini LED, isn’t able to display a single image for an extended time without concern of image retention (or burn-in).
LG has taken a cue from Hisense and includes a frame with the Gallery TV. The default frame is white, with the option to purchase an additional wood-colored frame. The TV will be available in 55 and 65 inches, but pricing has yet to be released.

Lyu Jae-cheol Appointed as New CEO to
Strengthen Fundamental Competitiveness of Core Businesses
SEOUL, Nov. 27, 2025 — LG Electronics (LG) today announced that Lyu Jae-cheol will assume the role of Chief Executive Officer, effective December 1. Mr. Lyu has successfully led the LG Home Appliance Solution (HS) Company, driving sustainable growth through expanded B2B operations, subscription-based and direct-to-consumer (D2C) business models, and continued competitive leadership based on LG’s core strengths in home appliances.
As CEO, Mr. Lyu will focus on expanding LG’s market-leading DNA in home appliances – built on delivering differentiated customer value – across the entire organization, further enhancing the company’s fundamental competitiveness and growth potential.
Mr. Lyu joined Goldstar (now LG Electronics) in 1989 as a researcher in the Home Appliance Research Center and has spent nearly half of his career in home appliance R&D, building deep technical expertise that has shaped his leadership approach. Since 2021, he has served as head of the H&A (now HS) Company, leading LG to become the global No. 1 home appliance brand.
Despite delayed recovery in consumer sentiment and intensifying market competition, he strengthened the leadership of flagship products while laying the groundwork for sustainable growth through continuous R&D. He also expanded HS Company’s business portfolio by advancing appliance subscription services, online channel growth and B2B business areas such as built-in appliances and component solutions.
Leadership Transition
William Cho will step down to support a healthy leadership transition after laying a strong foundation for sustainable growth during his four-year tenure as CEO.
Mr. Cho, who joined LG in 1987 and has dedicated 37 years to the company, expanded LG’s business beyond home appliances into sectors such as mobility and commercial spaces and established a mid- to long-term vision to transform LG into a Smart Life Solution Company that connects and extends customer experience across diverse spaces. His strategic direction prioritized performance in core businesses; growth in B2B, non-hardware and D2C areas; expansion into high-potential Global South markets; and exploration of new business domains – each becoming key milestones in LG’s future growth strategy.
To further accelerate growth of LG’s two key B2B pillars – vehicle solutions and heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) – the company has promoted Eun Seok-hyun, head of the Vehicle Solution (VS) Company, and James Lee, head of the Eco Solution (ES) Company, to president.
Kwack Do-yeong, who brings extensive experience in sales and strategy at the HS Company and a deep understanding of global markets, has been appointed Region Representative of LG Electronics North America and head of LG Electronics USA.
2026 Organizational Restructure
This year’s organizational changes focus on enhancing efficiency to build a more agile decision-making structure capable of responding to rapid external shifts, while reinforcing selective and focused operations to accelerate LG’s mid- to long-term portfolio strategy.
LG will maintain its existing four-Company structure, ensuring fast and accountable decision-making at the Company level. Similar and adjacent functions across business organizations will be integrated to streamline operations and improve execution efficiency.
With Mr. Lyu’s appointment as CEO, executive vice president Baek Seung-tae, previously head of the Kitchen Solutions Business, will assume leadership of the HS Company. Baek has strengthened global appliance competitiveness through roles leading both the Living Solutions and Kitchen Solutions Business and is well positioned to advance global production strategies under changing market conditions. The heads of the Media Entertainment Solution (MS), VS and ES Companies will remain in their roles to ensure continuity and strategic momentum.
Strengthening Growth Foundations for Future-oriented and High-potential Businesses
In parallel with organizational efficiency, LG is establishing new engines to accelerate high-potential business domains including HVAC, webOS and robotics.
The HS Company will establish the HS B2B Overseas Sales Division to grow global built-in and builder-focused business, and elevate the Built-in/Cooking Business Division to a Business. The HS Robotics Lab will be newly created, integrating select functions from the Chief Technology Office’s Advanced Robotics Lab. Research Fellow Lee Jae-wook, who led the Humanoid Robot Task, will head the lab. The MS Company will integrate its TV and IT Businesses into a single Display Business, and establish a Display Product Development Group to strengthen product competitiveness. The webOS Advertisement Business Department will be elevated to a Business to strengthen support for the expansion of webOS-based service operations The ES Company will establish a new Applied Business Division focused on HVAC solutions for data center cooling, ventilation, refrigeration and nuclear power, while launching the ES M&A Division and ES Overseas Sales Division to support localized, end-to-end overseas operations. Within the Chief Technology Office, a new HS Advanced Research Lab will enhance fundamental technology competitiveness, and a Next-Generation Computing Lab will be established to strengthen leadership in emerging technologies such as quantum and distributed computing and next-generation security. To drive companywide AI transformation, the existing DX Center and Business Process Innovation Division will be integrated into a new organization, the AX Center. Under the leadership of senior vice president Cho Jung-bum, former head of the DX Center, the AX Center will spearhead efforts to accelerate AI adoption, enhance operational efficiency, advance R&D and strengthen employee capabilities. All appointments and structural changes take effect December 1, 2025, with promotions effective January 1, 2026.

Agreement Highlights Company’s Global Leadership in Wi-Fi Standard Technologies
SEOUL, Nov. 20, 2025 — LG Electronics (LG) has signed a patent license agreement with Amazon, granting the use of LG’s Wi-Fi Standard Essential Patents (SEPs).
Under this agreement, Amazon obtains a license to use LG’s Wi-Fi SEPs in products utilizing Wi-Fi connectivity, including Amazon’s Echo devices, Fire TV Sticks and Fire Tablets.
LG is currently engaged in Wi-Fi SEP licensing discussions with several global companies that employ Wi-Fi standard technologies. The agreement with Amazon further underscores LG’s technological leadership and credibility in the global Wi-Fi standards domain.
SEPs refer to core patents that must be practiced when implementing an international technical standard – meaning any product using that standard inevitably relies on the patented technology. Once a technology is adopted as an international standard by global standardization organizations, companies around the world incorporate it into their products. Recognition as an SEP signifies both the contribution to advancing the entire industry and its technological value.
LG holds one of the world’s strongest patent portfolios in key standard technology fields, including mobile communications, Wi-Fi, broadcasting and codecs. As of the first half of this year, LG owned 97,880 registered patents globally, about half of which are standard-related patents.* The company’s innovative patented technologies, applied across flagship products such as OLED TVs, washing machines and refrigerators, continue to reinforce its global competitiveness.
Looking ahead, LG aims to further strengthen its patent leadership in emerging technology areas such as 6G mobile communications, vehicle-to-everything (V2X) communications, artificial intelligence (AI) and quantum computing. In its vehicle solutions business, LG has also been recognized for leadership in augmented reality (AR) technologies, earning top honors for its pioneering AR navigation patent.
Since 2022, LG has formally included the licensing of patents and other intellectual property rights in its corporate charter – accelerating efforts to build sustainable value through IP-driven innovation.
“This agreement reaffirms LG’s global leadership in Wi-Fi standard technologies,” said Cho Hwi-jae, head of LG’s Intellectual Property Center. “We will continue to drive innovation worldwide by building on our industry-leading patent competitiveness.”
