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...

      After recent software update of LG OS software update 03.51.15, there is constant problem with Date.  Date is not setting properly and getting defaulted, due to which browser and most of the apps are not working.. 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

      Why did the latest WebOS update 03.51,15 change my home screen settings?
      That is very RUDE
      It is MY home screen, not yours☹️

      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..
