LG TV 65UB980T-TA Content Store won't load


Question

Posted

Hi all,

I have an LG TV 65UB980T-TA, it was working great up until 2 weeks ago, the Content Store stopped working.

I don't get any error messages. The Content  Store splash screen  flashes 3 - 4 times trying yo start, then it goes back to Live TV. I can't start or update Apps that require updating. I went in to TV settings to check the Account Information, it does the same thing, it shows a dark gray screen about 3 times and goes back to Live TV, no error messages at all. I have tried wired and Wi-Fi, with different internet connections without any luck.

The app that don't need to update are still working fine.

Any idea what could cause this? is the Content Store down in Australia?

Many thanks.

Hi,

 

Please note, it turned out the instop reset was a temporary fix. I was able to go to the app store successfully and update the apps, but after a while the problem came back.

Anyway, instop reset can be done via the secret service menu.

I was able to access that using my phone as it has an infrared blaster. So I downloaded this app

link hidden, please login to view

And it can give you access to the menu easily.

I hope this helps.

      I did a refresh of my LG TV 3 days ago. Sold the old LG 47" 3D LED TV and bought new 55" LG Super UltraHD TV with WebOS. I believe, the biggest con of this new TV is WebOS. Its totally frustrating. Sorry for WebOS fans.
      It isn't that smart and functional they way it looks. The problem I having since 3 days and being a network engineer, I am unable to solve a network issue myself which is even more frustrating for me.
      Ok, let me explain the issue. The TV when installed was connected to LAN cable to my router which has direct internet connection. The TV works and none of the apps were working. Basically TV wasn't able to connect to internet via apps. If i open web browser, it was working fine with all webpages showing correctly.
      I'll skip the part of contacting LG support which was useless. All troubleshooting steps like resetting, formatting, changing time zone, location, region was done but no luck. Finally I connected the TV via mobile hotspot and it just worked which gave me the clue that some ports are being blocked by my ISP or router.
      My internet setup is this way. Internet cable from ISP -> ISP Modem (can do NAT and work as router) - WiFi Router (NAT, DHCP, etc) -> all LAN clients. I put my LG TV in DMZ, opened all ports, etc but no luck. Then I converted my ISP modem as router and connected the LG TV directly to it and it started working..!!!
      My WiFi Router is TP-Link Archer C7 and I was using stock firmware. Thought it was creating issues and I installed DD-WRT, Open-WRT but no luck at all. The apps which were installed in TV when TV was connected directly to modem are still working fine. Youtube, Plex, Netflix, etc all are working but when I open LG Content Store, it just refuses to load.
      I am not sure what wrong my TP-Link router is doing. There is something wrong with the LG TV content store. If it requires to open ports, then I would like to know which ones.
      Sorry for the long port, may be my frustration of 3 days with no luck.!!

      Hello,
      I regently got the LG 43UF6409 and have been pretty happy with it so far.
      When I tried to open netflix or the LG conten store, it's starting to load the user agreements- those could not be loaded due to a server error(loose translation from german). If I retry to load those, it does not load either.
      I've reset the TV to factory reset and it gives me the same error. It's connected to the wifi, shows me that it is connected to the internet but still won't load the user agreements.
      Also tried to look for software updates (it's 3.20.40)- if I try to look for updates, it could not find any.

      Everytime when we are watching a program we like very much.
      Suddenly appears on the left side of the screen some Recommended content.
      It takes too great part of the screen, and besides that the content it shows is not what we like too.
      I closed my account on the telly, but still it shows up every day.
      I can not find a solution for it.
