My magic remote and my Roku remote stopped working for turning off power so I performed a factory reset after troubleshooting to get the remote working. I am now stuck at the 1st screen of the Factory Reset which says "Press the OK Button(wheel) on your remote." Well... this really stinks because the remote doesn't work!!! I have tried a USB mouse, a new magic remote, other LG Remotes with no luck. I have also tried using the button on the bottom of the tv. And, I contacted support which was just an exercise in redoing everything I had already tried... No Luck!!
This is a Nano Cell 55NANO81ANA which is basically just a big brick now since I cannot even use any of the inputs. Does anyone have a trick for getting past this initial screen???
Thanks for the help.

Home is where the heart is, and it’s also often the best place to start when you’re seeking to make a positive difference in the world. A prime example is the ‘home electrification’ trend, which, in a nutshell, helps drive sustainability by replacing fossil fuel-powered household appliances with cleaner and more efficient electricity-driven ones.
Home electrification includes the installation of electric appliances and heating and cooling systems, such as heat pumps, which transfer heat from one place to another by circulating refrigerant. Heat pumps provide the practical benefits of year-round indoor comfort and lower utility bills. When integrated with solar panels and battery storage systems, they take things a step further – empowering homeowners with energy independence and the ability to power their homes during outages.
According to a study published in the peer-reviewed scientific journal Joule, electrification could reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in the residential sector by 36 to 64 percent and cut overall GHG emissions in the U.S. by 5 to 9 percent.1 To accelerate the transition to electrification, many governments are now offering incentives and subsidies, such as those included in the U.S. government’s Inflation Reduction Act, to encourage the adoption of energy-efficient home technologies.2
Electrifying your home with LG brings the compelling advantages of the company’s industry-leading core-tech and extensive lineup of sophisticated, energy-efficient products. LG’s innovative core components, including reliable, high-efficiency motors, ensure unparalleled performance and energy-savings across a variety of home appliances.
The company also provides the seamless connectivity and easy energy management with ThinQ Energy, compatible with a comprehensive range of LG appliances and HVAC systems. The LG Home Energy Platform, centering on the Energy Storage System (ESS), optimizes energy usage to prevent waste and emissions, and enables smart control of connected home appliances.
Many of LG’s products, which help reduce carbon emissions and enhance energy efficiency, are eligible for rebates. From ENERGY STAR® certified induction cooktops to low energy-consumption, low-emissions HVAC systems, LG offers a diverse array of cutting-edge solutions that can drastically decrease household reliance on fossil fuels and boost efficiency at the same time. Among these are water heaters equipped with heat pumps, and innovative laundry solutions like the impressive WashCombo washer-dryer with Inverter HeatPump.
Embracing home electrification is an investment in a cleaner, healthier future. With LG’s energy-efficient appliances and core technologies, you can transform your living space into an all-electric abode – shrinking your energy footprint, minimizing your environmental impact and making a positive difference in the world.

As a global corporate citizen, LG has long been committed to shaping a sustainable and equitable future for all. These efforts have not gone unnoticed, with S&P Global recently recognizing the company’s dedication to a greener future in this year’s Sustainability Yearbook.

The annual S&P Global’s Sustainability Yearbook is based on the S&P Global Corporate Sustainability Assessment (CSA) from the previous year, which comprehensively evaluates each company’s sustainability practices. The CSA has been comparing companies across 62 industries via industry-specific questionnaires for 25 years.
LG received high scores in this year’s assessment, particularly in the areas of environment and governance. In the environmental sector, LG achieved perfect scores in resource circularity, including energy, waste and water management, and scored major points for its systematic climate strategy. On July 18, LG attended the 2023 S&P Global Sustainability Awards Ceremony held in Seoul to accept the highly sought-after accolade in person.
In the ‘Leisure Equipment & Products and Consumer Electronics Industry category, LG received a score of 71 out of 100, the highest among 109 companies, earning it a place in the prestigious ‘Top 1%’. Out of the 9,400 companies across 62 industries evaluated, only 66 companies made the ‘Top 1%’, and only 6 of them are from South Korea.
Since announcing its target in 2019 to achieve , LG has been actively addressing the climate crisis. It became the first domestic appliance company to have its greenhouse gas reduction targets verified by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). In the , LG disclosed its greenhouse gas emissions by calculating all 15 scope 3 emission categories. The company is also expanding its use of recycled plastics and developing paper cushioning materials for packaging, aligning with its efforts to accelerate plastic reduction initiatives.
Regarding corporate governance, LG’s corporate ethics, innovative management and transparent disclosures have been commended. To foster an environment where every employee worldwide can uphold its corporate ethics, LG has distributed its Code of Ethics and Code of Conduct in over 10 languages globally. This year, it introduced a unified Human Rights Principle to establish a consistent policy across borders, demonstrating the company’s respect for human rights and commitment to international standards. Moreover, following the designation of LG Smart Park in Changwon as a Lighthouse Factory by the World Economic Forum in 2022, the company’s Tennessee plant in the US achieved the same recognition last year, establishing a track record of successful innovative management practices.
To realize its Better Life For All vision, LG established last year, focusing on two key areas: the ‘3Cs’ for the planet (carbon neutrality, circularity and clean technology), and the ‘3Ds’ for the people (design for all, decent workplace and diversity & inclusion).
To address the ‘3Cs,’ LG has been working on its transition to renewable energy, expanding waste recycling, developing highly efficient products and utilizing more eco-friendly materials. The ‘3Ds’ focus on ensuring the highest standards of safety, health, labor rights and human rights across the entire supply chain, while promoting the recruitment and development of women and people with disabilities, all the while improving the accessibility of its products and services.
To honor its commitment to realizing a Better Life for All, LG remains steadfast in its dedication to creating value for society. Recognized globally for its outstanding achievements in ESG management, the company will continue to fulfill its responsibilities and roles in the economic, environmental and social sectors. Stay tuned to and discover more ways LG is promoting sustainability worldwide.
