Bricked LG TV after automatic update 43UM7199PLB 27.10.2022


Question

Posted

I have accepted to update the TV firmware after being requeste many times by the menu. Big mistake!
After the update was finished the screen remains black, but the LCD screen is back lit so I can see it's started.
The magic remote has the microphone function and I can still search using the voice for youtube videos and the sound is playing.
o the TV is functional just I have a black screen

I tried after to run the update from USB after manually downloading this update: SW File(Version 05.30.11)
from 

link hidden, please login to view

No menu is showing, screen is still black
A folder was create by the TV and it contains a file
D:\LG Smart TV\TN\INFO

With this content:
{"INFO":"{ \"core_os_release\": \"4.9.7-11\", \"returnValue\": true }{ \"device_name\": \"k5lp\", \"returnValue\": true }"}

Any solution for me? Do I have to change the TV motherboard? I want a cheaper solution, not paying for a new motherboard in service.

My TV too.
After the update my screen remains black. Back light is on and the TV is working. I can start Netflix, play content, hear it, adjust volume etc, but not matter what I do, I cannot get it to display a picture at all.

I have tried soft resetting by unplugging it for 30 minutes, holding the power button for 60 seconds etc. Nothing works.

It's this TV. 
I can't even download a firmware to attempt a manual update.

Hello,
I was doing Webos 05.30.11 update on my Nanocell SM8100PVA when I saw your messages, I stopped it at 97%...
Have you been able to solve your problems ?

I don't know what is wrong with my tv.

The image came back for a day, then on day 2 the left side of the screen started dimming every few seconds, then full bright again.. but now with scan lines.

Now it's completely dead again :(

Have you tried to reset your TV to factory settings, and to call LG support ? an official patch shouldn't break the TV this should be covered...
Your description remind me a not compatible screen resolution or frequency...

I've tried everything.

Sometimes the image comes back, but only the right side of the screen.

I feel sorry for your tv, I really hope LG will fix your it.

If only it was not so complicated to downgrade firmware...

      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?

      Our TV just did an update and now certain buttons on the remote aren't working, and the TV won't stay on if it even comes on at all you get a dark blue screen and that is it.. such a great update. Now what do we do? The remote batteries have been changed and it still isn't working correctly. We unplugged the TV and then replaced it in.. ugh..

      My LG 49UB850V LED TV  browser is too old. The most of the pages not work any more. How to easy update just one simple browser app? For example, often browser show error during open new page. It show certificate expire problem and page not load at all.
      This mean LG sell product without update at least browser certificate and now we are stuck and can not even load one page from WWW. 
       
      Shame on you LG. I will not buy any more from you.  How dificolt is to release new update to update OS certificates? Microsoft Windows did this, android did also for old phones, etc... Really, can not undestend this asian people from Korea.

      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?
