Bricked LG TV after automatic update 43UM7199PLB 27.10.2022


Ioan Alexandru

Question

I have accepted to update the TV firmware after being requeste many times by the menu. Big mistake!
After the update was finished the screen remains black, but the LCD screen is back lit so I can see it's started.
The magic remote has the microphone function and I can still search using the voice for youtube videos and the sound is playing.
o the TV is functional just I have a black screen

I tried after to run the update from USB after manually downloading this update: SW File(Version 05.30.11)
from 

link hidden, please login to view

No menu is showing, screen is still black
A folder was create by the TV and it contains a file
D:\LG Smart TV\TN\INFO

With this content:
{"INFO":"{ \"core_os_release\": \"4.9.7-11\", \"returnValue\": true }{ \"device_name\": \"k5lp\", \"returnValue\": true }"}

Any solution for me? Do I have to change the TV motherboard? I want a cheaper solution, not paying for a new motherboard in service.

My TV too.
After the update my screen remains black. Back light is on and the TV is working. I can start Netflix, play content, hear it, adjust volume etc, but not matter what I do, I cannot get it to display a picture at all.

I have tried soft resetting by unplugging it for 30 minutes, holding the power button for 60 seconds etc. Nothing works.

It's this TV. 
I can't even download a firmware to attempt a manual update.

Hello,
I was doing Webos 05.30.11 update on my Nanocell SM8100PVA when I saw your messages, I stopped it at 97%...
Have you been able to solve your problems ?
 

I don't know what is wrong with my tv.

The image came back for a day, then on day 2 the left side of the screen started dimming every few seconds, then full bright again.. but now with scan lines.

Now it's completely dead again :(

Have you tried to reset your TV to factory settings, and to call LG support ? an official patch shouldn't break the TV this should be covered...
Your description remind me a not compatible screen resolution or frequency...

I've tried everything.

Sometimes the image comes back, but only the right side of the screen.

I feel sorry for your tv, I really hope LG will fix your it.

If only it was not so complicated to downgrade firmware...

      As above! All4 & My5 will no longer work. Also, how do you update the browser? My LG nano TV is just over 3 years old.

      I had an issue with powering on the tv in which pressing the lg power button on the first ocassion did not turn on my Oled C1 77 inch Tv.
      LG replaced the powerboard, however since the replacement I have an issue with intermittent audio dropouts via earc. 
      EARC has functioned previously on my Tv when connected to an Anthem 710 receiver and for a few months now on an Anthem AVM 70. 
      The set up has remained the same in terms of audio settings, passthough, match screen and sound set to bypass and I have tried multiple cables, switching the tv off, resetting earc, but I still have the issue. 
       
      It is very odd that after a replacement power board I have this issue. It almost seems like a comparability issue between the new board and the existing components or something else is wrong with the TV.
      Any ideas?

      I would like to update the OS on a relatively old TV (manufactured in 2015). So there are questions: how to find your version, where to download a new one and check its compatibility with my TV?

      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?
