Can't install or update


Question

Posted

New TV. 55" LED. Plugged into wired network. Settings look good for network.

Cannot update OS, install or update apps.

"Failed to ... Try again later"

What's up with this? Lots of posts about WebOS sucking. But, this is not working much at all.

Hi @lsitongia

However, the flip side of lots of posts about webOS sucking there are those that are happy with it, but your mileage may vary from other forum users.

All I can suggest for your problem is if you know how to alter the DNS settings on your modem/router set them to Google's services: 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4

Some ISP DNS servers are known to cause problems with initial setup of webOS so this may help you as well, if Google's DNS setting do not help there are many more to try:

Public DNS Servers

Thank you for your help and explanations.

Changing the DNS configuration didn't help. From the ISP servers or Google servers, the software update and app installs appear to download successfully (from the progress bar). But, the update or installation fail. My interpretation of this is that WebOS can contact the server, get the software, but cannot install it.

I want to add another post to this thread, but since I posted last, it appears that my new "answer" is being appended to the one I last wrote, which was from about four hours ago.

Anyway, the TV suddenly started working right. I don't know why. I turned it on and got an alert that the system had been updated (I had previously enabled auto-update). Now apps are also installing. So, all is now as I expected it to be.

The new answer had the previous answer's text in it, and I didn't know that I had to delete that text before typing my "answer".

Hi @lsitongia

Glad things are working for you now, annoying that you cannot pinpoint exactly what the issue was though.

Have tried to reset to original settings and remove automatic date setting option then tried setting manually.. but every day its resetting to old date.

      Hello, after the last update of WebOS (6.5.0.-24) there is different behavior of returning back to previous input on my TV. When I was watching a Live TV and opened an app like Youtube, after closing it (holding the return button) it used to return to Live TV. The same with HDMI input, when I was playing on Playstation and the opened an app, after closing it it returned back to PS. Now after the update, it always go to the Home Screen when the app is closed. I only found in setting to return to last input when turning the TV on instead of Home Screen, but didn't find the same for the behavior after closing an app. Is there a way to fix it?
      Thanks

      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?

      My LG TV is quite an old version, and I don’t even remember when it was purchased. Now I’m looking to replace it with a new one, preferably one that can connect to the internet. It would be even better if it could directly use Spotify. If your TV is the one I seek, please let me know the model. Right now, on my old TV, I can only download Spotify to computer separately and then transfer it to the TV using an MP3.
