WebOS TV Firmware version

[Dejan Fehirov]

Just a couple of questions Dejan,

1. Any picture improvement with the new firmware?

2. How are the picture adjust setting menu (less adjustment options on the later 5.00.** firmwares)

3. Out of memory errors (possible a little early for this)

Cheers Jonny

Happy new year to all

 

Hi guys and happy holidays!

 

These are my observations about 05.00.55:

 

1. I do not notice any improvement or deterioration in picture

2. Everything is the same as in previous versions

3. That is now history 

 

***No more problems with HDMI / ARC***

 

It seems to me that the software is now faster for a couple of percent

For your TV(55UB850V-ZD) latest version is 05.00.25 and there is no beta/test versions, yet...If you have this firmware version then everything is fine..

Okay, i hope they release a new firmware soon, i am so annoyed at the lack of support for the ARC/HDMI drop outs they are actually doing my head in, i have seen some people using 05.00.55 that appears to have fixed it but trying to get hold of this for my TV is a hard task lol

HI Dejan,

 

Thanks for the hard/brave work!

 

I'd like to install 05.00.55 as I am going nuts with the audio switch issue of 05.00.35, however I can't find the link for the brazilian version (the link you provided was DVB, I guess it should be ATSC instead).

 

would you have the link for that too?

 

cheers, 

Gustavo

.35 is latest for Brasil region. Keep calm and wait new version

Please don't install europe version because you will lose access to some apps!Just stay with Brasil ver.Changing region firmwares is not recommended..

Well I took the plunge and installed the 5.00.55 version and guess what.

It seems ok at the moment, fingers crossed. Only time will tell.

I have to use internet browser to set my DNS server for geo unlocking and it seemed more responsive than before (still a long way of a PC but certanly more usable).

SD-tv picture seems a little better than the 5.00.15 not as much blurring around moving figures or may be just a different set up after the reset.

All in all very pleased so far. At last LG are getting it together.

Also for added bonus looking through the russian website linked earlier found out my all in one remote can be coded to acess the EZ service settings menu's.

Big thanks for the info Dejan.

Regards Jon

Hi Guys,

 

I've recently picked up a 49UF850V - TV is generally good except i'm having using using an AV receiver with the HDMI ARC port. When turning on the TV occasionally it will randomly turn off Simplink and use only the internal speaker. I've seen some people above mention that the latest beta firmware fixes some ARC issues.

 

I can't see which firmware I should be downloading as the russian links posted previously state they're for 2014 TVs? Can anyone help?

 

TV: 49UF850V

Region: UK/GB

Software Version: 04.00.40

WebOS: 2.2.0-2115 (beehive-biscayne)

 

Thanks

[Dejan Fehirov]

Other tips:

In General settings please switch "Settings Help" to "Off" to speedup Settings Panel

In Accesibility Pointer Options settings please set Pointer Size to smallest. This will reduce "ghost effect" around pointer in pure black screen/radio mode or similar

 

After every Firmware Update, please Reset to Initial Factory Settings, then apply my settings
