Hello community,

Any owners of this projector who are on a WebOS later than version 3? Projector was advertised as being 4.5 but it's seemingly stuck on 3, so no Disney, no Apple TV... A real shame!

Would be great to hear if anybody has any news from LG, or found an update.

Thanks.

Similar problem with my projector HU80KS. LG seams not to focus very much on their projectors regarding WebOS and related Apps. I am a little disappoint. The main reason why I bought a "smart" LG projector, was because of WebOS and now I have to find out that not all apps are available like on a LG Smart TV. I am very disappointed!

Thanks for replying Munich. I had a scout on the LG US website for updated WebOS for your HU80KS, but no luck. April 2019!! Why are LG so bad at supporting beamers? If you get any more responses from LG, I would be grateful to hear them: I will do the same if I get anything back.

There have been recurring issues about LG products recently. If they are listening, I would tell them that they should focus on making all the necessary apps available on their Web OS platform or they should switch to Android OS for TV and other devices.

I have found many LG owners that are not satisfied with the new web OS enhancements.

OMG, this is so frustrating. This is a very expensive projector that lies about every aspect of its "smart" features. As of July 2021, it's stick on WebOS 3, every application is currently bugged. No support for Google Home or Alexa. No support for Disney+. The fact that they say it's webos 4.5 and has both Alexa and google home integrated is such an absurd. LG should get sued for this.

Guys, even though my projector was "HU70LA.AWZ", the automatic update 04.00.06 didn't appear. I only managed to download in the version "HU70LA.AUS" directly from LG's website, with that I did the manual update using a pendrive. Now, i was able to download the Disney+ app, it no longer gives the previous error, however, the HBO MAX and STAR+ apps still haven't appeared. Does anyone have a solution to download the apps?

Do you have the Brazilian version of the HU70LA? Did it work to update with another firmware? Can you replicate the step by step here? Thanks.

      LG SIMPLINK keeps turning back on since webOS 23 update. Auto Power Sync missing.
      By Flavio_S
      On LG OLEDs. You go on and disable SIMPLINK. Fine. But everytime you turn on your HDMI device it enables itself back again. This happens because they have disables two key features that were present in previous OSs, as you can see clearly here
      link hidden, please login to view (they even put screencaps of the menus where you see the missing options in the 23) These functions are Auto Power Sync and Auto Device Detection.
      Man updates are supposed to add functionalities not the other way around. It's very annoying to turn on your TV and have your AVR turn on without you wanting to.

      Anyone found a solution for this problem?

      Does the 'In Start' menu exist on WebOS 1.4
      By denisuu
      Hi all,
      I'm wondering how you can get into the service menu (In Start) on an old LG Smart TV (42LB630V) running WebOS 1.4.  I have a Samsung Galaxy S6 (SM-G920F) with a IR blaster, I have tried sending '0x04FB 0xFB04' to I which should be IR code to enter the menu, but that doesn't work.
      I have also tried entering it with the SSAP-Web, but I get:
      error: 500 Application error {"errorCode":-101,"returnValue":false,"errorText":"\"com.webos.app.factorywin\" was not found OR Unsupported Application Type" The SAPP-Web app does works though, because the TV does respond to Get info
      { "returnValue": true, "product_name": "webOS", "model_name": "HE_DTV_WT1M_AFAAABAA", "sw_type": "FIRMWARE", "major_ver": "05", "minor_ver": "05.90", "country": "omitted", "device_id": "omitted", "auth_flag": "N", "ignore_disable": "N", "eco_info": "01", "config_key": "00", "language_code": "en-GB" } The reason I want to access the menu is because I've enabled DEBUG mode on my TV through the NVM method and I want to enter a root shell trough UART to enable SSH and root access.
      Gaining root access through NVM:
