Chatting with LG rep - He said: 
"The LG servers are currently down for maintenance, LG is currently working on fixing this and should be back up soon". 

That was a scripted BS answer - who takes down servers for routine maintenance on New Years Day.  I dug a little deeper and he confirmed the servers "crashed and LG is trying to fix"

I also asked him to pass upstream that a proactive effort from LG to the Community on the status would have helped a lot of people not waste their day trying to fix something that they couldn't.

I’m having the exact same problem- I have tried all of the suggestions and nothing, I must have tried 30 times now for 2 hours and it’s driving me mad..it’s obviously a common problem so there should be more support available from LG. Can you post if you find anything that works and I will do the same. Good luck!

Thanks for that from the LG rep...That’s very annoying that the LG website wasn’t updated because I wouldn’t have just spent the last 2 hours driving myself mad and wanting to return the TV,,

I am also having this problem.

Bought my model, a UM7000PLC, a few days ago and was working fine until today where I tried updating Prime Vídeo. Just would not let me.

Searched online for some troubleshoots and ended up doing a factory reset. Now can't load user agreements and don't have access to any apps...

Tried router reset, DNS, hotspot with phone and nothing. Spent 2 hours on this only to find servers are down... Guess I'll use the Xbox for Netflix.

Hope this gets fixed soon.

Hi

Same here in Poland - new LG C9 55.

Maybe they really has some servers problems.

However what is worring for me  me, I can't update firmware, even from USB

When I try to update online, I have information that version 04.70.05 is available. But, after requesting update, there is a message: "Software update cant be applied to the TV"

I also tried to download update to USB from the LG website, there is a version 04.71.05. Update starts and works several minutes till 100%, but then, gives the same message and update is not finalized.

Can you (who have problem with loading user agreements), can check if you have same issues with update ?

Regards

Wojtek

Today I decided to reset my 55SM9800PLA to do some testing with the Google Home mini, and for 3 hours I've been struggling with resetting the TV and this user agreement! :(

I've had the same struggles today...Really bad timing. Hopefully they get it sorted ASAP.

TV: 50UM7600PLB

Same here in Finland.
I have done the following tricks:
- the Areena (=finnish app)  didn't work so i uninstalled it
- I tried to install it again, failed
- noticed that no other apps can be installed, damn
- reset the TV to factory settings (many times), no help
- downloaded internet webos installation file, didn't install because same version (i thought the checksum was broken), no help

Thank you LG for not posting any information on the Finnish website! For the second time, I won't sneak into LG.

Kylläpä vituttaa.

It might be a good idea to get a backup device like a Roku if we’re using apps to watch TV. LG servers going down like this without warning makes for a very boring day off when I had plans to binge-watch.

I have the same problem with my 55C9 I bought yesterday and set up this am. :(  Thanks for posting about this.  I was going to call tech support Thursday and I am sure I would have been frustrated as  result.

So thankful for this forum! I also called LG almost 8 hours ago after I reset one of my new LG tvs to troubleshoot issues with YouTube TV. The OLED TV worked fine but the 4K 55” kept restarting programs. After resetting  the TV 3 more times & trying hotspot just to make sure it wasn’t my modem, I finally gave up and called LG. I was on hold for more than 30 min when I got the same BS answer that they were doing maintenance on their servers. When I asked why my other TV was still working, they were unable to answer.  Hmmm. I asked if they would call me back when problem was resolved and was told NO. Very disappointed & concerned that it has not been fixed yet. 1st time buyer of LG TVs and may be the last if it does take 24 hours to fix!

There cannot be a sw bug that needs 24 hours to fix. If the servers have backup servers and sw is properly tested, then there should be no 24 hour outage. Of course, in the case of a denial of service attack.

      Prime Video unable to update/install on LG TV OLED65G36LA WebOs 8.20.0-710
      By Juicycarrot
      Hi there,
       
      I have an LG smart TV OLED65G36LA (LG OS v03.20.17, webOS TV version 8.20.0-710) , and the Prime Video App was no longer able to update (from Dec 2025) and therefore could no longer be used.
      I have tried uninstalling the app and re-installing, and that was unable to work, so then applied a full reset on the LG TV and so had to reinstall all of my other apps (Apple TV, Netflix, etc etc) which all successfully downloaded so confirmed network connections and setup are all confirmed working.
      When I try to download the Prime Video app, it remains stuck on the download screen and is unable to update.
      Thanks

      LG Signs Wi-Fi Standard Essential Patent License Agreement With Amazon
      By News Reporter
      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.”

      * According to LG Electronics’ 2025 semiannual report, the company holds 26,762 domestic patents and 71,118 overseas patents. (Source:  link hidden, please login to view).

      LG Channels Grows News Viewership Through Enhanced User Experience
      By News Reporter
      Improved Access to News Content and Strengthened Broadcast Partnerships Inspire
      Double-Digit Growth Across Multiple Regions

      SEOUL, Aug. 8, 2025 — LG Electronics (LG) is advancing LG Channels viewership growth across the world, thanks to its intuitive user interface and growing variety of content. As part of this effort, LG is partnering with leading broadcasters and news organizations across multiple regions to add more news streams to the platform, making them both relevant to local audiences and easier to access and explore.
      Starting this month, LG Channels news content can also be accessed directly from the home screen via newly introduced News Portal. Rolled out via Q-Card in the U.S., Mexico, Brazil, the U.K. and Germany on TVs running webOS 25, this feature is expected to expand to more platforms later this year – supporting further news consumption growth, thanks to the company’s free ad-supported streaming TV (FAST) service.
      In the U.S., LG Smart TV users can access a wide array of news channels through LG Channels News Hub, a curated source for free, ad-supported news channels. The News Hub is made possible through partnerships with multiple leading national and local broadcasters whose channels are available in the News Hub, including NBCUniversal, Disney, FOX Television Stations, Bloomberg Media, Warner Bros. Discovery, Allen Media Group’s Local Now, E.W. Scripps, Sinclair Broadcast Group and others. In addition, users can still access news channels through the Electronic Program Guide (EPG) on their LG Smart TVs.
      LG Channels also provides localized content from Local Now channels, Allen Media Group’s free news streaming service, which delivers over 220 local channels in every U.S. ZIP code.
      Expanding its offerings for Spanish-speaking viewers, LG collaborated with NBCUniversal News Group earlier this year to introduce Telemundo Station Group’s 24/7 streaming news channels. These channels – Telemundo Noticias California, Telemundo Noticias Texas, Telemundo Noticias Florida and Telemundo Noticias Noreste – deliver regional news coverage.
      These partnerships have been a key driver of the double-digit linear growth the LG Channels service has seen in the U.S., year-over-year. LG’s efforts to strengthen regional news access through LG Channels were recognized in June 2025 with the Award for Achievement in Local Broadcasting at the ITVT/TVOT 21st Annual Awards for Leadership in Interactive and Multiplatform Television. This honor underscores the company’s commitment to advancing news content delivery through partnerships with trusted local broadcasters.
      “Our goal with LG Channels has always been to make high-quality, relevant content accessible to everyone,” said Chris Jo, head of the webOS Platform Business Center at the LG Media Entertainment Solution Company. “By working with trusted news providers and powerful broadcasters across regions and continuously improving how users discover and access content, we are making local and national news more approachable, timely and meaningful within everyday viewing.”
      LG Channels viewing time has increased in Mexico and Brazil as local news content becomes more available. In Mexico, major local broadcasters TV Azteca, Multimedios and Grupo Imagen joined LG Channels this year, strengthening its local news lineup. TV Azteca’s FIA has emerged as the most-watched channel among the 190 channels available on LG Channels in Mexico, underscoring strong demand for quality local news. These additions have driven a 95 percent year-over-year increase in viewing hours in Mexico.
      In Brazil, LG Channels has expanded local news offerings with the launch of New Brasil in partnership with Grupo Bandeirantes – one of the country’s leading broadcasters – CNN Brasil, and Times Brasil – Licenciado Exclusivo CNBC. Since these launches, the platform’s viewing hours in Brazil have increased by more than 40 percent, with CNN Brasil the most-watched.
      LG also continues to expand the availability of local news content on LG Channels across Europe. In markets like the U.K. and France, news partnerships have driven strong month-over-month growth, with double-digit increases in viewership. Currently, over 100 news channels including BFM TV (France), GB News (UK), CNN International (UK, Germany, Austria and Switzerland), CNN Headlines (available in 16 European countries), Bloomberg Television (UK), Euronews IN DIRETTA (Italy) and CNN en Español (Spain) are available, with more channels, such as France 24, scheduled to launch soon.
      In Spain, LG Channels has added content through a landmark partnership with RTVE, the national public broadcaster. Viewers can now enjoy RTVE’s premium content for free, including flagship channels La 1, La 2 and Canal 24 Horas (24H) – the latter being a trusted source for real-time national and international news.
      Strong local news content is increasing viewing time across other regions as well. In Australia, the addition of Sky News Australia, a leading national news network with a loyal viewership, has boosted engagement significantly. In Korea, local news from major outlets such as TV Chosun, JTBC, MBN, Channel A and YTN consistently garner the most viewing time among the 130 channels available on LG Channels.
      In India, LG Channels offers a wide selection of FAST news channels to meet local demand for timely, diverse information. As of June 2025, news accounts for over 40 percent of all viewing time, with news channels dominating the platform’s top 10. LG Channels features over 40 news channels in eight regional languages. Among these, Aaj Tak is the most-watched nationwide, with other major Hindi-language channels including India TV, Republic Bharat, TV9 Bharatvarsh and NDTV India.

      Unable to load user agreements
      By Hasan Ghasabi-Oskoei
      I have recently purchased an LG 55QNED86 television. I am located in Iran. Everything seems to be working fine, but when I click on any of the options, it tells me I must first consent to the LG Smart TV user agreement. However, I then get a message saying "Unable to load user agreements - a server error has occurred ......"
      Can you help?
