Hello... I have a question about the difference between the firmware which is upgradeable and now it is 5.30.15 and the WEBOS software version 3.3.3-4403 (dreadlocks-dharug) which is not upgradeable.... And why it is not?

- LG webOS Firmware Update

  UPDATING YOUR FIRMWARE
  
  The firmware that powers your LG Ultra HD 4K Smart TV with webOS should be updated from time to time to enhance your experience and improve its operation. Thankfully, this can be done easily and quickly, right at home.
  Watch this quick video to learn more. Or follow the easy steps below to get started.
  
  HOW OFTEN DO I NEED TO UPDATE MY FIRMWARE?
  Firmware updates don't happen frequently, so you should be fine checking for updates every other month.
  HOW DO I CHECK FOR, AND DOWNLOAD, AVAILABLE FIRMWARE UPDATES?
  Before you do anything, make sure you have an Ethernet cord connected directly from your router to your television. Wireless Internet connections are not reliable enough for firmware updates.
  Use this diagram if you need help getting set up:
  
  ONCE YOUR TV HAS A WIRED CONNECTION, DO THE FOLLOWING:
  Press the MENU Click SYSTEM SETTINGS Then ABOUT Then SYSTEM UPDATES You'll be advised that your system is currently up to date or requested to select CHECK NOW for the latest update. If a new version is available, it downloads automatically. FIRMWARE UPDATES WILL ALSO UPDATE LG ULTRA HD 4K SMART TV AND LG APPS AT THE SAME TIME.

  Our current app is available on 4K/UHD LG television models running the following system software:
  webOS 3.0 webOS 3.5 webOS 4.0 webOS 5.0 No 720p or 1080p (“full HD”) sets are supported for our current app at this time.
  Note: Due to root certificate limitations with the device OS itself, only webOS 5.0+ devices support secure connections with a personal Plex Media Server. To allow connections to a personal server, devices running earlier webOS versions must be set to Allow Insecure Connections in the TV app settings and the Plex Media Server must be set to Preferred for the Secure Connections preference.
- Sonos Arc suddenly not recognized on LG
  By JCowper
  
  I have a LG 55" 4K UHD HDR OLED webOS Smart TV and a Sonos Arc. They have been working together fine, but suddenly are not and I cannot seem to fix it. I have tried everything from new hdmi cable to total factory reset on both pieces of equipment and I am so frustrated!

  thanks!!
- IPTV Smarters not in LG Content Store
  By OKtay Sa
  
  Hi there,
  i have an 65oled9flb (webos).
  
  i want to install the app IPTV Smarters Player but i cannot find it in the content store.
  
  I tried different country's for LG Services to obtain it but no one worked.
  
  Any one an idea?
  
  I read that there are different apps in the store regarding what tv you have and which region you are. Does anyone have more information about that? Maybe they didn't support oled tvs or i don't know what else could be the reason.
