WP CentralIf your webOS smartphone is active on a cellular account, you probably have your Date and Time setting to automatically pull from the network connection for the time and time zone. However, if you are running your device without a cellular signal, even if it's connected to Wi-Fi, the network time will be unavailable and the time may start to slip. While a one or two minute difference will not affect your webOS experience, a significant difference will cause some things to break in how you use your phone. The clock and calendar appointments / reminders will be useless and you will be unable to perform actions like refreshing a twitter app or logging in to services like Instapaper because they check the timestamp on your device to make sure nothing unnatural is occurring.

often can become a frustrating experience, but developer content754 has come to your resuce with , available in the official App Catalog for any webOS device that has App Catalog or access
Once you install Click Sync, just open up and app and you have the option to perform a onetime sync by tapping the "Sync Now" button. You can also set the app to perform a "periodic sync" every 2, 6, 12 or 24 hours by switching the toggle to ON and selecting your sync time. Alternatively, you can choose a specific fixed time by choosing the "+ Add new time" option under the "@TIME SYNC" section.  Once the app is running, you can tap the Clock Sync history icon to view a history of the time syncs.

If you from the top-left to view the Application dropdown menu and choose Preferences, you can also choose some addition advanced features as well. You can select to turn on "Monitor Mode" that will not actually change the date and time during a periodic or fixed sync, but rather just keep a history of how far off your time is from the official time. In addition, you decide if you want to show or suppress notifications for when a time sync occurs

Finally you can work with an experimental "Time Shift" feature that will add or subtract a selected number of hours or minutes to your clock's time. If you wanted to use this feature--especially if you do have a cellular signal on your device--make sure that the "Network time" option in the Date & Time app is turned off so this time shift will not be continually reset.

      Connecting an external device to my LG 55UQ7570PUJ TV
      By bos2prov
      I want to attach a device called a "StreamLine TV" to my LG TV that would broadcast the TV audio directly to my hearing aids. It apparently requires any one of the following three connectors to be on the TV:
      TOSLINK cable (optical / digital) Cinch cable (RCA / analog) Jack adapter Looking at the back of my TV it doesn't have an old-fashioned RCA jack which seems to be what they mean by a "Cinch cable (RCA / analog"). 

      I'm not sure if it has a TOSLINK cable. Searching for 'TOSLINK' in the PDF user guide returns nothing. But on the back of the TV there is a jack called OPTICAL DIGITAL AUDIO OUT. Could that be a TOSLINK connector, maybe just not named as such in the user guide?

      LG’s “Hybrid AI” gram Laptops Offer the Best Of Both Worlds With On-Device and Cloud AI Services
      By News Reporter
      With Advanced AI Features and Capabilities, 2025 LG gram Laptops Deliver
      Smarter, More Personalized Productivity Experiences

      SEOUL, Dec. 31, 2024 — LG Electronics (LG) is set to unveil its 2025 LG gram lineup, the company’s first on-device AI-powered laptops, at CES 2025 in January. The new lineup includes innovative models such as the gram Pro, gram Pro 2-in-1, gram and gram Book. Leveraging LG’s gram AI technology,1 the latest grams deliver state-of-the-art capabilities and stellar performance, harnessing large language models and personalized AI features to elevate the user experience – all while preserving the series’ iconic slim and lightweight design.
      Enhancing Productivity and Personalization with LG gram AI
      The 2025 gram laptops present a smarter, more secure and highly-personalized user experience through LG’s innovative gram AI. With gram chat On-Device, these laptops utilize AI algorithms to process and analyze data locally without requiring a network connection. At the same time, they provide convenient access to cloud-based AI services via gram chat Cloud, powered by GPT-4o. This subscription-based service, which uses GPT-4o, is offered free of charge for the first year. The integration of on-device and cloud-based AI creates a hybrid AI solution that enhances productivity by delivering personalized insights, a comprehensive knowledge base and an intuitive, ever-evolving experience that adapts to users’ needs.
      gram chat On-Device employs a small language model derived from LG AI Research’s EXAONE large language model. This enables fast and secure local processing to provide relevant answers and simplify device management. Notable features include Time Travel, allowing users to quickly and easily revisit web pages, documents, videos and audio files. Meanwhile, gram chat Cloud leverages vast web-based datasets for detailed and comprehensive responses to user inquiries. Additionally, gram chat Cloud integrates with personal calendar and email services, enabling users to manage their schedule and send and receive emails more efficiently.
      Unleashing Unprecedented Performance with Intel’s Next-Generation Processors
      The 2025 gram laptops set a new benchmark in the series’ history, powered by Intel’s next-generation processors: the Intel Core Ultra H-Series (Arrow Lake) and the Intel Core Ultra V-Series (Lunar Lake). The H Series processors are designed to maximize traditional PC performance, while the V Series CPUs are optimized for AI-driven PC experiences.
      The Arrow Lake-powered gram laptops boast more computing power and improvement in graphics processing, compared to 2024 gram models. These impressive laptops deliver an exceptional all-around performance that prioritizes core PC functionality. The Lunar Lake-powered models come equipped with Microsoft’s “Copilot+” PC functionality, offering productivity- and creativity-boosting features such as real-time video subtitle translation and AI image generation.
      Delivering Innovation and Versatility for Every User
      At the forefront of the 2025 lineup is the LG gram Pro (model 17Z90TR), a laptop that presents the best of performance and portability. Inside the gram Pro’s sleek, slim and lightweight form factor is an Arrow Lake CPU and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4050 graphics card. This advanced hardware combination enables the gram Pro to effortlessly handle a variety of demanding tasks, from resource-intensive graphic design and 3D-rendering work to video editing and running the latest AAA games.
      The lineup also includes the new LG gram Pro (model 16Z90TS), the first Copilot+ PC in the gram series. Measuring just 0.49 inches thick and weighing 2.73 pounds, it delivers remarkable portability. Another highlight is the 16Z90TR, boasting a 16-inch display and an impressively light weight of only 2.64 pounds. As the lightest model in the 2025 gram Pro lineup, it exemplifies gram’s signature lightweight design while delivering powerful performance.
      Additionally, the highly versatile LG gram Pro 2-in-1 (model 16T90TP) has been recognized with a CES 2025 Innovation Award for its outstanding design and functionality. Offering incredible flexibility, the device comes with a wirelessly chargeable stylus pen that expands and enhances the user experience.
      To expand its U.S. market presence, LG is introducing the LG gram Book (model 15U50T), an entry-level model offering key features and benefits of the gram series at a more accessible price. The gram Book has a 15.6-inch Full HD (1,920 x 1,080) display, expandable storage options, a 720p HD webcam with privacy shutter, and a slim and light design for take-anywhere convenience.
      All new gram laptops support gram Link 2.0, an upgraded version of the gram Link feature first introduced last year. gram Link 2.0 facilitates seamless device connectivity across operating systems,2 allowing users to easily share content and transfer files with a diverse range of PC and mobile products, including iOS and Android-based smartphones. This feature also allows users to handle incoming phone calls directly on their gram laptops, minimizing workflow interruptions.
      “2025 LG gram products, featuring advanced gram AI, are powerful, portable productivity companions that can understand users’ needs, intelligently utilize relevant information, and enhance workflow,” said YS Lee, vice president and head of the IT Business Unit, LG Media Entertainment Solution Company. “LG is committed to delivering premium-quality laptops that harness the latest AI technologies to enable users to do and achieve more.”

      It turns my channel off at random times exactly 11 minutes after the hour. I checked and double checked the settings looking for timers, etc. any fixes that I’m missing?  It’s when I’m streaming on Sling.
