My NEW LG 4k UHD is suddenly showing a Factory Mode floating message on Power startup...

All the information I've read (including LG online & TV documentation) DOESN'T mention this mode and how to restore User Mode...

Is this really a Smart TV ??

Did you get this issue resolved. If yes, pls share solutiin
Hi! I want to know if you have set your tv in family mode ? You hit settings on your remote -> advanced -> general -> home(family) / store mode, then select home(family) mode. Then set or reset your tv if needed.

Or you can do what is say in this video it might work:


If your remote control is not working

Then you should try the "instop" option or button in the "sure universal remote" app that you can find on the Google playstore in an Android smartphone.

Once the sure app is pair to the tv -> hit the checkered square -> scroll down to the bottom and hit the "instop" option to factory reset your tv.

If you can't use the sure app, you can purchase this not to expensive lg services remote on amazon it go the "instop" button and more...

Look for this it cost about $9.90

Thank you for your reply. I tried the Harmony universal remote and also the IR remote app on Samsung Galaxy tab. Nothing worked out. Now my TV is stuck in Factory mode. The message floating on TV says, Press INSTOP to go back to user mode. I have tried LG service remote, Harmony remote and Samsung IR smart app to send INSTOP command. There is nothing happens. 

I also tried the P-only button on service remote that allows to enter the Instop without password. When i press P-only button, the TV turns on with message saying pressure exit and turn-off to exit P-only mode. Press Exit and INSTOP to revert back to User mode. I pressed the exit and INstop nothing happens. Please help me here on how to turn off Factory mode and revert back to User Mode. 

 

Thanks

Hi! After doing what you did you have to turn off the tv and turn it on again for change to be executed i think. Have you done that ?

Did you unplug hdmi and network cable ?

And have you try this method :

 

Me I added in the harmony elite remote, the "services menu" ,the "in_start" and the "instop" options

I think you could do the same

      Cannot Connect to Dev Mode - Incorrect Passphrase
      By Justin Bester
      Hi

      I've been trying many different ways to connect to my TV. I have followed every guide I can find and nothing is working.
       
      Basically, the webOS Desktop Dev Manager thinks my passphrase is wrong. My passphrase is NOT wrong. I have also tried with the CLI tools but nothing works. I have NO idea what I can try further. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

      Factory Reset, Remote Won't Work, Stuck on Press the OK button(wheel) on your remote (55NANO81ANA)
      By David Daul
      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.

      Unable to load user agreements
      By Hasan Ghasabi-Oskoei
      I have recently purchased an LG 55QNED86 television. I am located in Iran. Everything seems to be working fine, but when I click on any of the options, it tells me I must first consent to the LG Smart TV user agreement. However, I then get a message saying "Unable to load user agreements - a server error has occurred ......"
      Can you help?

      LG G3 - PC Mode Reactivates After Cold Boot on Nvidia and Intel, but not AMD GPU
      By atcronin
      I remember when I first bought the TV in Nov '23, it would switch into PC mode (setting the HDMI input to PC) automatically when first connecting my RTX 4090 PC. This behaviour was fine as the TV was indeed being used for PC Gaming.
      On my RTX 3050 HTPC I could disable PC mode by changing the input back to HDMI1. This would restore all picture settings options. This change would persist until the HDMI cable was physically disconnected/reconnected. Again, this behaviour was fine for my HTPC where I preferred having access to all the picture settings options vs 444 passthrough.
       
      Now PC mode is reactivated after every Cold Boot (Shutdown > Power On) but not from Warm Boot (Restart).
      It is a 'silent' PC mode as the input label does not change back to PC, however the same picture settings are greyed out like in PC mode. Switching the Input label from HDMI1 to another non-PC type disables PC mode again and restores the full picture settings.
       
      I was using the RTX 3050 in my HTPC for a few months after I purchased the TV and did not experience this issue. After a few months I switched to the RX 7600 and continued to not experience this issue. I recently tried going back to the Intel iGPU on the HTPC and discovered this issue. I thought it might be an intel bug, so I reinstalled the RTX 3050 and found the issue again. I've gone back to the RX 7600 as it does not suffer this issue.
       
      I have Game Optimizer options disabled (VRR, Freesync, ALLM), 444 Passthrough Disabled, QMS Disabled.
      Intel and Nvidia GPU options tried:
      Change output from RGB to YCBCR = no effect
      Disable "Text Content Processing" on intel = no effect
      Change "Content type reported" on Nvidia = no effect (Movie does activate film maker mode)
       
      Testing performed on Win11 24H2, however also experienced the issue when testing LibreElec(Linux Distro for Kodi) on the intel iGPUs (didn't test Nvidia in LibreElec as unsupported).
       
      Affected GPUs: UHD Graphics 730 on Intel i5-11400 and i3-12100, Nvidia RTX 3050
      Unaffected GPUs: AMD RX 7600, Nvidia GT 1030
       
      I've noticed that on the RX 7600 and GT 1030 the SPD Info Frame are blank/Unknown.
      While on the UHD 730 - Product Description: PC, Vendor Name: Intel, Source Info: PC
      and the RTX 3050 - Product Description: GeForce RTX 3050, Vendor Name: NVIDIA, Source Info: PC

      External USB storage (flash\hdd) how to disable scan\thumbnails\etc
      By mycop
      Greetings.
      A huge problem is connecting an external drive/flash drive to a TV with webos with a large number of files.
      It starts scanning all folders, which can take up to 20 minutes. Which is unacceptably long.
      On the netcast platform, everything was instant. Maybe it creates previews...maybe something else...
      How to disable disk scanning by the webos platform?
