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?

Responsible and Sustainability-Focused Corporate Citizens
SEOUL, Feb. 13, 2025 — LG Electronics (LG) has once again secured a “Top 1%” ranking in S&P Global’s Corporate Sustainability Assessment (CSA), marking the second consecutive year it has received this distinction. Scoring 77 out of 100, LG achieved the highest marks among the 66 companies in the CSA’s Leisure Equipment & Products and Consumer Electronics industry category.
LG’s consistent performance across multiple assessment categories reflects its commitment to responsible environmental, social and governance (ESG) management. The company received high marks in environmental criteria, demonstrating strong performance in waste and pollutants management, energy management program and climate strategy. It also scored well in social categories, including human rights, supply chain management and customer relations. Additionally, LG earned high ratings in governance for its transparency in reporting sustainability-related information.
S&P Global’s CSA provides a comprehensive evaluation of companies’ ESG performance, identifying the top 1 percent, 5 percent and 10 percent in each industry. Out of 7,690 companies across 62 industries assessed in the latest evaluation, only 66 achieved the “Top 1%” ranking.
Securing this recognition for consecutive years highlights LG’s growing global acknowledgment as a leader in ESG management. The CSA serves as a key benchmark for investors worldwide, reinforcing LG’s commitment to sustainable business practices.
To realize its Better Life for All vision, LG has established six strategic tasks for ESG management. These are focused on what LG terms the “3Cs” for the planet (carbon neutrality, circularity and clean technology), and the “3Ds” for people (design for all, decent workplace and diversity & inclusion).
LG is furthering its commitment to sustainability with plans to transition to 100 percent renewable energy at all domestic and U.S. business sites, as well as international manufacturing facilities, by 2050. As part of its climate action strategy, the company aims to achieve carbon neutrality by 2030.
Notably, LG became the first home appliance company in South Korea to have its corporate greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions reduction targets validated by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). The company is committed to reducing absolute Scope 1 and Scope 2 GHG emissions by 54.6 percent by 2030, using 2017 as the baseline year. Additionally, LG is committed to cutting Scope 3 emissions from the use of sold products by 20 percent per functional unit by 2030, based on a 2020 baseline.
Additionally, LG is enhancing resource efficiency by increasing the use of recycled plastics sourced from waste appliances and developing paper-based cushioning materials to reduce plastic use in packaging.
LG remains dedicated to fostering a strong corporate culture rooted in ethical business practices. The company has implemented its Code of Ethics and Code of Conduct across all business sites and has established Human Rights Principles to uphold corporate integrity. LG continues to transparently communicate its business direction and corporate value enhancement plans, including the Future Vision 2030, the LG Electronics India IPO and shareholder return policies, ensuring meaningful engagement with stakeholders.
Furthermore, LG has reinforced its corporate governance structure by establishing clear guidelines on the independence, diversity and expertise of its independent directors, along with the implementation of its corporate governance charter.
“As a responsible global corporate citizen, LG remains dedicated to upholding the principles of good ESG management and will continue striving toward a future of shared, sustainable growth,” said Hong Sung-min, head of LG’s ESG Strategy Division.

Company Recognized for Advanced Global Testing Capabilities,
Expands Its AI-Based “LG Shield” Security System
SEOUL, Jan. 15, 2025 — LG Electronics (LG) is enhancing its cybersecurity capabilities for connected devices in response to advancements in artificial intelligence (AI) and the widespread adoption of the Internet of Things (IoT).
LG’s SW Testing Laboratory has recently obtained accreditation to perform cybersecurity testing for IoT devices from the Korea Laboratory Accreditation Scheme (KOLAS), a part of the Korean Agency for Technology and Standards (KATS).
This accreditation is globally recognized under the International Laboratory Accreditation Cooperation Mutual Recognition Arrangement (ILAC-MRA). Consequently, test reports issued by LG’s SW Testing Laboratory – testing compliance with the European Telecommunications Standards Institute’s (ETSI) cybersecurity standards for IoT devices (EN 303 64511 and TS 103 70122) – will carry the same weight as those issued by other accredited testing laboratories in over 100 countries, including the U.S. and Japan.
KOLAS’ IoT cybersecurity testing accreditation validates the credibility of LG’s existing testing processes. By acquiring the ability to internally test the cybersecurity of its products, LG will significantly reduce both the cost and time needed to obtain accredited test reports for its new and upcoming innovations.
As IoT and AI products become more prevalent and related security regulations are established, LG will continue to efficiently manage and rapidly respond to cybersecurity testing requirements across various global markets.
LG’s SW Testing Laboratory is the first manufacturer-run testing laboratory in South Korea to receive KOLAS’ internationally-recognized accreditation for software testing. The lab has also expanded its expertise to include home appliance software safety and automotive software safety. LG aims to leverage both its quality testing accreditation and cybersecurity testing capabilities to provide customers with reliable, high-quality products and security solutions.
Meanwhile, LG is actively pursuing Responsible Intelligence – one of the key pillars of the company’s Affectionate Intelligence – and is continuously reinforcing security measures for its AI-enabled products. LG has applied its sophisticated cybersecurity processes and solutions to provide robust digital protection for network-connected products and any shared or stored customer data.
More specifically, LG employs a comprehensive array of cybersecurity protocols throughout the product lifecycle, from initial planning and development through to post-launch usage. This approach minimizes the risk of data breaches by empowering the secure management of both sensitive personal information and user data generated during product usage.
In addition, LG is expanding the implementation of “LG Shield,” the company’s advanced AI-based security system, across its growing lineup of AI-enabled products. LG Shield proactively protects products, software platforms and user data using a variety of advanced processes, methods and technologies.
LG Shield prevents data leakage by encrypting sensitive information, including personal data, and securely storing encryption keys in segregated digital spaces. It also protects products’ operating systems by utilizing a secure server environment and real-time threat detection to prevent unauthorized access and tampering with operational code or data.
“We will continue to strengthen our cybersecurity capabilities to meet the latest global cybersecurity regulations and improve our software competitiveness,” said Park In-sung, head of the Software Center at LG Electronics.

In a strategic move to bolster its presence in Indonesia, LG is accelerating the capabilities of its Research and Development (R&D) Center in the country by investing in its most valuable asset – its people.
Last year,
link hidden, please login to view officially opened its world-class R&D facility, aiming to elevate the company’s operational capabilities and further its mission of delivering quality products to more consumers worldwide. The 40,000-square-meter R&D center in Cibitung is set to become a pivotal hub for LG’s expansion into new global markets. This facility allows LG to implement a one-stop operation in Indonesia, integrating its supply chain processes into a seamless workflow that encompasses development, production, sales, marketing and customer service. This makes LG Indonesia the first LG subsidiary in the world capable of performing these roles simultaneously.
“Our R&D Center in the heart of Indonesia reinforces our unwavering dedication to serving Indonesia with the highest quality products, bringing up highly competitive manpower with creating jobs, transferring knowledge and making innovations,” said Lee So-yeoun, president of the LG R&D Center in Indonesia. “We anticipate our Indonesia R&D Center to continue positively impacting not only the company but also Indonesia’s broader society.”
This state-of-the-art facility will not only serve as a testing ground for LG’s latest innovations but also support the development of new TVs for the global market.
The center conducts rigorous tests on products to assess their resistance to moisture, heat and vibration as well as the packaging’s ability to protect items from significant drops. These tests are carried out to verify the durability of LG TVs throughout the product life cycle, from shipment to actual use.
Beyond technological development, LG Indonesia seeks to empower local human resources through the new facility. As part of this initiative, LG Indonesia sent 100 local workers to South Korea for a training program to equip them with the necessary knowledge and skills. A highly competent local team leads the facility’s technical and development quality assurance departments, and LG has employed approximately 400 people to run it, with plans to recruit more over the coming years.
To further improve its human resources, LG’s Indonesia R&D Center is exploring scholarship programs, internships, project sponsorships and partnerships with prominent local educational institutions. This initiative aims to strengthen the industry-academia relationship while creating broader opportunities for Indonesia’s talented youth. This will almost certainly foster greater innovation, leading to new products designed for the global market.
The Indonesia R&D Center’s high operational standards have earned it three ISO certifications for SHEE (Safety, Health, Environment and Energy): ISO 14001 (Environmental Management), ISO 45001 (Occupational Health and Safety) and ISO 50001 (Energy Management), emphasizing its dedication to safe, eco-friendly operations.
With the implementation of an advanced Building Management System (BMS), LG’s Indonesia R&D Center ensures environmental sustainability and energy efficiency by monitoring and controlling the air conditioning, ventilation, water systems, fire alarms and power.
Beyond enhancing operational efficiency, the R&D Center aims to help the company comply with national standards by adapting its products to better serve the local market, such as acquiring the Indonesian National Standard (SNI) certification. Among its most valuable contributions so far, the facility helped develop the LG OLED G4, the latest OLED TV which uses 60 percent less plastic than conventional televisions and recently received the Eco-friendly Certification for the fourth consecutive year.
Looking ahead, LG’s Indonesia R&D Center will continue to promote sustainability through key ESG initiatives organized under the “LG LOVES Indonesia” program. With a focus on the environment, education, community welfare and child development, the company has already initiated several projects in Indonesia, including “LG Loves Green,” “LG Loves School,” “LG Loves and Cares” and “LG Loves Children.”
Keep an eye on the to see how else the company is putting its Life’s Good motto into action while striving to make meaningful contributions to local communities.
