@lgrowhar I assume your W8 is now on Version 05.10.45? I had an intermittent flicker a while ago on an older (not OLED) LG TV, and it turned out that ONE of my HDMI cables was a low spec one. I changed that out for a known 1.4 spec, and it stopped. If you can ensure yours are 2.0 spec (or even 2.1) at a reasonable price, go for those, as it will "future proof" your connections for a while (especially 2.1)!

Just because you might have an old DVD player connected say, don't think it will be OK to use an older low spec cable to connect it to your higher spec TV inputs, as the clock signals and CEC control lines might affect each other, as some data lines may be on a complex data BUS system in the hardware. Clock slew and jitter may affect the way the CPU and firmware handles the high speed data streams.

      My tvs bottom half is flickering every few seconds to a darker colour, I can still see the picture behind it, it's like a gray shadow on top of the image. Any idea if its the T-Con board or the LED backlights that might be the problem.

      Hello, I have searched everywhere but it seems I am the only one facing this strange problem .... when I need to use whatsoever function like simply lower the volume or changing a channel the control works but the appairing webos, instead of showing the volume bar or the channell list, makes strange coloured patterns or flickering for few seconds, then it disappear and the tv goes on working with no issues; you  may imagine that, apart using intuitive controls like volume or zapping channesl, it is impossible to get more settings because the list won't be visible on the screen .... any ideas ?

      I recently bought a new router (Unify Dream Router) and after a couple of weeks of struggle, I managed to set it up with my ISP's VDSL connection (FFTC) using a third party modem in bridge mode (NETGEAR D6400).
      Everything seemed to be working fine until I realised I couldn't open the Netflix app on my LG Smart TV. After a bit of investigation, I realised nothing except for YouTube and the Browser was working. Just to make this clear: the WiFi connects fine, I can access all websites through the LG Browser, and I have no issues with YouTube, but nothing else works.
      All the regular streaming apps fail to open and, most importantly, the LG Content Store fails to load. Before I fixed my network, the tv was working fine. If I switch to my phone's hotspot, everything works fine.
      Things that I've tried:
      factory resetting the tv leaving the tv unplugged to delete cache using google's DNS on the TV using a wired connection  Having said so, I am so lost that I would be happy to try anything again.

      Hello there,
       
      i am having a very weird and annoying problem with the youtube App.
       
      I am running it with my CX8 55inch Oled Tv updated to firmware 4.5 and since few hours the app refuses to properly functions. It open and it shows videos but it does not show the left menú and therefore all functionalities beside homepage carousel of video. 
      On top of it, when running a longer video it randomsly shows the no network error and ask to "refresh", then it moving down with the arrow you can restart the video roughly 10-15s before you had the crash.
       
      I tried to close the app, remove and reinstall the app, hard reset the TV.
      Nothing worked.
      Only thing left, that is much annoying, is to reset to factory conditions.
       
      Does somebody have any solutions?
       
      Thank you,

      I've just bought a 2021 LG Smart TV, Model 43UP75003LF and I see some vertical shades of white. I tried to disable all filters but the problem is still there. Does it have a manufacturing defect? Should I return it back to the store? I attached a picture.
