Hi, 

 

I was tying to change the settings on our LG TV to enable it for HD channel reception. We found instructions on the net to configure the "area option" in the hidden menu, however, they did not work. So, we thought that we need to change the country group to be able to receive the HD channels. Although we could not change the "country group code" from 20 to an arbitrary number, we change it to 10. After that, we have not been able to change it anymore. It is struck there. I know this is ridiculous, but an LG TV expert who is working in LG customer services told us that I could not change it either and we need to replace the IC. I shocked why with a simple change in one of the TV parameters, everything is got complicated. 

 

In details, here is the picture of the parameters currently set on the LG TV with the model number of 49LH549V-TD:

Please tell me why I could not set the "country group code" to 20 once again? It is gray meaning that is unchangeable. Any ideas will be appreciated.

 

Best regards 

Alizadeh

I fixed it. I gave to the specialists to replace an "HP" IC. I know this is ridiculous, but it seems that is the only solution. 

Thanks for your response. Since I have the same issue and I dont know how can I fix it, would you please introduce me the specialist or how can I call him? Did he replace some hardware or just by modifying software? I would be grateful If you contact me here or in direct message. Thank you

Hi Nimazh, 

The expert was from LG customer service. As we are far geographically, I would suggest contacting your local LG customer service. BTW, they replaced a chip on the main board, so it was not the software modification.

      LG Saudi Arabia and Shaker Group Celebrate 30 Years of Partnership and HVAC Innovation
      By News Reporter
      Representatives of LG Saudi Arabia (LG) and Al Hassan Ghazi Ibrahim Shaker Co. (Shaker) recently gathered in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, for a celebration three decades in the making. The glitzy gala event marked 30 years of partnership between the two innovative companies, who continue to deliver innovative heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) solutions tailored for Saudi Arabia and the greater Middle Eastern market.
      The partnership between LG and Shaker began in 2008 with the establishment of a joint venture – an advanced HVAC manufacturing facility in Riyadh. Over the years, their alliance has strengthened, solidifying their position as the leading providers of high-performance HVAC solutions in the region.

      The event featured speeches and multimedia presentations honoring past and present achievements, and looking ahead to the exciting future of LG-Shaker collaboration.
      “Our commitment to driving growth, enhancing customer satisfaction and contributing to the Kingdom’s sustainability goals is stronger than ever,” said Pilwon Jung, LG Electronics’ representative for the Middle East and Africa region.
      Mohammed Ibrahim Abunayyan, CEO of Shaker, highlighted the success and synergy of the long-standing relationship, emphasizing the shared values and belief in creating a better future.
      “This enduring partnership reflects our joint dedication to delivering leading, cutting-edge, energy-efficient HVAC solutions that align with Saudi Arabia’s strategic vision,” he said.

      The event also recognized key stakeholders, including top HVAC consultants and contractors, whose contributions have been integral to the partnership’s success.
      Aligned with Saudi Vision 2030, LG and Shaker continue to champion high-efficiency HVAC solutions that promote sustainability. One such innovation is the LG Multi V i, set to launch in the Kingdom later this year. This advanced system leverages AI-driven algorithms to intelligently adjust the indoor temperature for optimal comfort while helping to minimize energy consumption at the same time. In addition, the companies are showcasing the benefits of LG’s energy-efficient oil-free chillers and high-performance residential air conditioning solutions employing DUAL Inverter technology.
      Building on their strong, long-standing partnership, LG and Shaker remain wholly dedicated to leading the Saudi Arabian HVAC market with innovative and energy-efficient solutions for a smarter, more comfortable life.

      changing the region made all the apps unavailable
      By Luka Pantsulaia
      I bought LG smart tv. for some reason region selected was Africa and could only choose from african countries and had very little available apps in content store. I live in Georgia, so figured that  changing region to EU would help so changed it to 3122 and selected service country UK because Georgia was not in the list. after that every app says that it is not available in current country. I have  default region code saved so I guess could go back but wondering if any one can help me to get it working in EU. or if anyone have region code in which Georgia is available it will be helpful as well.
