Hi Team,

After update of LG WebOS to 04.40.70, Amazon Prime Video app on my LG Smart TV stopped working. It started giving error :

Internet Connectivity Problem

There is an internet connection problem. Check the device's internet settings, data cables, or try to resetting your router. Also, turning your device off, and then back on might fix the problem. For further assistance, please contact Amazon customer service at www.amazon.com/videohelp

The internet/wifi connection is fine and all the other apps are working without any issue on the LG smart TV.

I have even tried uninstalling and reinstalling the Prime video app, but that didn't help.

Has anyone faced this issue ? Is there a solution available for this issue.

Thanks & Regards,

Nitin

The video (media player) has also stopped working on several websites on the web browser app since this update 4.40.70 as well. It's a pain in the butt. The sites otherwise work fine it's just the video won't play. I have 2 webos TV's one I updated the other I declined the update. It's only the update one that has the problem. With the previous update the very odd site wouldn't play and with this update even more sites won't play. Please fix this. Here is an example that wouldn't play after the previous update ...

Oddly enough, Amazin is the only one working for me after this update. HBOMax, disnyplus, skyshowtime.   All three fail.

Sadly even a factory reset won't allow me to rollback the update.

I have a LG CX with firmware 04.40.70. Since the update I had a lot of wifi problems. I thought the wifi module on the TV died. 

After a month I saw in the TV settings that the TV sometimes connects to the router but does not go to the "DNS".

On my network, the router takes care of DNS, so I entered a public DNS 9.9.9.9 in the TV's network settings instead, and all my wifi problems disappeared.

But that's not the only problem I've had since the update. The web browser no longer works properly. But at least I found a solution to the wifi problem, maybe that will help someone else.

      Binge LG WebOS app can't play a complete program without restarting
      By Nick Payne
      On our LG G1 OLED, when watching a program on Binge, the Binge app restarts itself every 20 minutes or so with a message about needing to restart to free up memory. Power-cycling the TV doesn't fix the problem, nor does running the "Memory Optimiser" function from system settings. None of the other streaming service apps we have on the TV have this problem - Prime Video, Stan, Netflix, Disney+, Britbox, ABC iView, SBS On Demand, Youtube. Those are the only other apps installed on the TV. I've checked the LG WebOS version and checked for app updates, and everything is latest version.
      If I run the Binge Android app on my Chromecast with Google TV, it works without any problems when streaming the same programs.

      LG’s new ThinQ smart fridge with webOS
      By Alex
      Samsung has made fridges with touchscreens before. LG has made fridges with doors that turn transparent to show you the inside. This year at CES 2018, those two ideas are finally merging into one with LG’s new InstaView ThinQ smart refrigerator, which features a 29-inch touchscreen that becomes transparent if users knock on it twice.
      LG actually tried this two years ago, with a version called the Smart InstaView Door-in-Door that ran a full version of Windows 10, but it’s not clear that the company ever shipped the Windows version.
      This version uses the touchscreen to manage your food using LG’s webOS software and Amazon’s Alexa, which will let you tag food with virtual stickers and expiration dates and get automatic reminders when things are running low or about to go bad. There’s also a wide-angle panoramic camera on the inside of the fridge that will let you remotely view your fridge while you’re out and about to check and see if you’re actually out of milk or not.

      Unfortunately, the only image that LG has shared showing the fridge is a low-resolution shot on its YouTube page banner, but it seems that you’ll be able to still use the screen while it’s translucent, allowing you to tag food directly in a vaguely augmented reality-esque move.
      LG is also touting how all of its ThinQ kitchen gadgets can talk to each other to make kitchen tasks easier. So your ThinQ fridge can talk to your EasyClean oven, which will help you cook food through step-by-step instructions from the recipe app from your fridge. Then, your EasyClean oven can notify your QuadWash dishwasher about the kind of meal you cooked, so it can more efficiently select a wash cycle for that dish. Of course, all this requires spending thousands of dollars replacing every appliance in your kitchen (and if this all works as well as LG claims it does), but it’s still an intriguing vision of a Jetsons-like future utopia.
      No price or release date for the InstaView ThinQ refrigerator or any of LG’s other new appliances have yet been announced.
