I can confirm it worked.
Changed to Germany. Updated rebooted. Updated to UK (TV Rebooted its self this time) waiting for the magic remote to time out and then next time I used it the message said in the corner updating magic remote software...... about 10 secs later said it was successful
No more problems
Hey,
I followed this and changed region to germay and I am downloading the update now.
Hope it fixes the remote issue!
