Well I can tell you that after some time you will give up on using WebOS, the OS is very unstable and useless! I have bought cheep laptop and connect to my TV so I can have "smart" TV. Since the day I have purchased the TV until now the TV have received two updates but again I can say this is the most useless device I have evet purchased in my life. To be clear I don't talk here about using the TV as a TV the picture quality, 3D, magic remote and all other TV futures are totally OK.

With the new firmware everything works well; therefore there is no huge difference between the two versions of the firmware only the TV works faster and some bugs are fixed. Below is my opinion about the TV. TV quality builds material: very good. Picture quality: awesome. Sound quality: awesome. Menu response: OK Remote control: magic remote is awesome. Switch On time: OK WebOS: the most useless OS I ever seen in my life, I give up using the OS long time ago. Updates of firm: I think that will never happened.

I'm not sure what will happen if the power goes down during upgrade, but I guess the TV will not work. Therefore I haven't notice that the TV has some sort of Bios or something similar but for sure is not erasing the old OS before fully install the new one. BTW I forgot to mention in my previous post that you can check the status of the update in the menu while updating.

In my post the details i have provided are for TV model 42LB625T, be careful choosing the right firmware! As Jimbo1876 explain in his post the procedure how to upgrade firm from USB is very well explained on LG website. 1. Download the archive file. 2. Unzip 3. Create folder on the USB drive and name it "LG_DTV" 4. Copy the file/s to USB drive in the previously created folder "LG_DTV". 5. Turn off the TV from remote 6. Plug in any of the USB ports or in service USB if it's exist. 7. Turn the TV on. 8. When "USB connected" message will apire select from the dialog "stay". 9. Last "USB update" message will apire chose "install". What for around 10-15 minutes and than restart the TV. Please note that I don't take any responsibility if something goes wrong while updating the firmware. Regards,

Hi to all who was waiting for some news/updates from LG for this model of TV. The new firmware was added three days ago. link to firm: http://www.lg.com/za/support-product/lg-42LB652T Difference between before and after in software/OS version. Before After WebOS ver is still 1.X Hopefully LG will work out to develop better OS in future for this model. So far the OS cannot be used for internet browsing or similar activities, it looks to me that this software is only "Beta" version. Will test and see what is the difference between the old OS and the new one. Kind Regards,
