Hi, I purchased my SMART TV model 43LF6300 in the year 2016 and current Firmware Version 04.06.40. Every one India using their favorite app like Disney Hotstar+, Zee5, Aaha and many more apps but those are not available on my TV which is annoying.. I spent Rs. 54000 to buy LG Smart TV but all the latest apps are not available. Please release the latest Web OS for these models at least Beta version unless the TVs like this will be useless and no one trust LG products. Thanks in advance and hope to receive latest Web OS soon.

It will not be updated. Even more recent models did not receive updates.

I think LG have said in the past that they will not be updating the OS for older models.

Maybe someone else on the forum will know for sure though, best of luck.

It never will be. This is LG's way of forcing you to upgrade. I got trapped with this. After buying a AUD10,000 TV I then found its software would no longer be upgraded. Pretty pathetic really.

Sorry to disappoint you but your tv won’t be receiving any updates.

As for smart tv updates and blaming LG that it has stopped providing updates, its the same with every manufacturer. Even android tvs stop getting updates in 2-3 years.

Its always better to buy an external device for this purpose. They last longer and can be upgraded when needed. Buy a firestick or an  apple tv whichever suits you. There are many more options. Firestick is just 2000 INR.

Does your android phone receive updates for more than 3 years? No, however expensive it may be. Its the same case here.

I am not defending LG just providing the solution and wanting you to accept the reality.

LG are thieves! They make sure tv doesn’t get updates, they remove the apps they see most customers use to force them to purchase new tv’s  or if they are smart, buy different brand all together.

They have worst support. Its our mistake we purchased LG over Sony, you can't blame them. Next time make a wiser choice.

      LG Lauded for Latest Design Innovations at the 2025 Red Dot Design Award
      By News Reporter
      Company Wins 35 Accolades, Including Special Recognition for
      the Self-Driving AI Home Hub and LG SIGNATURE OLED T

      SEOUL, April 23, 2025 — LG Electronics (LG) has been honored with a total of 35 awards, including the prestigious Best of the Best accolade, at the 2025 Red Dot Design Award. This annual award celebrates design excellence across a diverse range of categories and is widely regarded as one of the world’s top three industrial design award programs.
      Among the standout winners is the LG SIGNATURE OLED T, the world’s first wireless transparent TV, which earned the prestigious Best of the Best accolade. This groundbreaking TV allows users to switch between transparent and opaque modes at the touch of a button, opening up new possibilities for entertainment and living space design. With a 77-inch 4K OLED display, the LG SIGNATURE OLED T offers stunning picture quality, unique augmented reality-like visual experiences and the flexibility of wireless installation.
      Another highlight is LG’s Self-Driving AI Home Hub (Project name: Q9), an LG FURON-enabled smart home AI agent designed for independent navigation. This innovative product, powered by LG’s Affectionate Intelligence, was recognized with a Red Dot Design Award and also selected as a winner in the Innovative Design metacategory. The Hub can understand users and interact with them naturally, enhancing various aspects of the smart home experience to enrich everyday life. The awards jury praised its friendly, pet-like design and its ability to display different “emotions” using digitally animated eyes.
      In addition to these top honors, LG received 32 awards across a wide range of product categories, including refrigerators, washing machines, dryers, TVs, air conditioners, air purifiers, audio products, monitors and commercial robots.
      LG’s impressive performance at the Red Dot Award follows its success at the iF Design Award 2025, where it won 36 awards. Products such as the LG QNED TV, LG StanbyME 2 and the LG SIGNATURE refrigerator with Smart InstaView are now dual winners, having been recognized at both the iF Design Award and the Red Dot Award in the same year.
      “We will continue to push the boundaries of design innovation, leaning into our deep understanding of customers to deliver human-centered innovations in products, solutions and customer experiences,” said Chung Wook-jun, head of the Corporate Design Center at LG Electronics.

      Latest software update broke HDMI on my LG OLED G2?
      By OliverRC
      Up until a few days ago my TV and AVR have been working perfectly since I bought it.
      Zero hassles with HDMI and connectivity.
      Then I was prompted to update to the latest software version which I did and now often when I switch HDMI (running on 1) it picks up the device name, CEC works but I get “No Signal”… and then nothing.
      Just stays on “No Signal”. It is almost as if some HDMI handshake breaks and now the driver is in a broken state.
      I’ve found that if I hard power off and power on the device sometimes works but I don’t want to do that every time especially since it’s hard to get to the power.
      This really strikes me as a software issue with the latest update as absolutely nothing else has changed in my setup.
      I’ve tried:
      Different HDMI cables (high quality) Deep colour settings Reset the TV to factory default Different HDMI ports TV
      Model: OLED65G26LA / OLED65G26LA.HFBQLWK WebOS TV Version: 8.3.0.2301 Software Version: 13.30.56 AVR & Devices
      Marantz SR5015 Nvidia Shield Pro PS5
        The setup is the conventional AVR installation as shown in the attached file

       
      Has anyone else experienced this? 
      Is it possible to revert the software update?

      Sky News stopped working after the webOS update
      By Roy Brown
      webOS updated, I think to 2023, on my C2 a couple of days ago. Since then the News option on the Sky News app no longer works, instead timing out. The Weather and Climate options still work, though.
      I have deleted and reloaded the Sky News app, but the problem remains.
      Does anybody have any suggestions of what I might try to get this working again, or is this something for LG, or Sky, to fix?
