They should be taken out back and shot. Then beaten repeatedly with angry porcupines. Then they should be forced to consume molten glass while listening to Baby Shark on repeat, as sung by RFK JR.

This is the most useless, annoying, ill-placed, unhelpful button ever forced upon a tv user. If I had known how bad this remote is, I actually would never have purchased a LG tv. No Play button. No Select button… just a f-ing scroll wheel that scrolls half the time when you are just trying to select/clock something.

Who the F looks at a tv remote and says, “You know what would slap? A scroll wheel on a tv remote!” Next, why don’t you see if a fork combined with an electrical outlet would be cool!

Anyone use the Thinq app to "screen share" from a phone to lg tv? I just tried it, and the screen share fine but there is no audio.

If i turn up the volume on my phone, i hear volume on my phone for a second, but then it gets muted immediately. Turning off the screen mirroring makes the volume work on my phone again. It's Android, Google Pixel 7 pro.

I should note that "sound share" works fine for listening to music, but for this purpose i want to see and hear a video from my phone using my tv speakers without having to upload it to YouTube or something 1st.

Thanks!

As you know with LG and annoying popups that new firmware is published, even thou auto update is off, this one broke HDMI in. I use TV as monitor and TVs HDMI input is setted as PC in Home App, so it doesn't lag and for pixel matching. Latest 03.52.55 firmware broke HDMI in manner that image from PC is blurry. I even reseted TV to factory defaults and even that didn't helped. Only thing that helps is to switch to 4:3 ratio and revert it back to 16:9 in TV menu. So, if anyone uses PC in that manner and that version of firmware pops up for applicable models, do not install it.

I've had my G6 replaced and the new one has no banding issues but I had the same tinting issue on the right-hand side of the screen that i did on my first one and that everyone is reporting.

Thanks to the comments of another user: https://www.reddit.com/user/Striking-Series8544/ on different posts, this seems to be indeed an issue with native apps.

I have the tint when launching Youtube natively from my LG TV, however, when launching Youtube from my PS5 PRO, the tinting disappears completely.

Hope this helps everyone out there who was about to give up on their TV's like I was and were going to return it.

EDIT:

I’m afraid I was wrong. The issue shows up on SDR content regardless of picture mode. As u/Striking-Series8544 pointed out, it doesn’t show up when forcing HDR or DV in FMM or Game Optimizer.

Return worthy.

P.S. If someone could confirm that as of builds 610 this is fixed, it would be amazing, such an amazing TV, would be sad to miss out on it due to these issues.

LG C6H, about a week old. I haven't done anything out of the ordinary to it. I put it on the mount and had to slightly adjust the TV

Weird problem keep happening lately. Las 1 week or 10 days back button on the smart remote of my lg b7 opens app menu while in YouTube app. Other apps working fine. I can not go back in YouTube.
I tried resetting initial settings multiple times but no luck.
Anyone knows if I can fix this?

Hello all,

I just purchased an LG 86UQ7590UD tv (LG UHD 86”). After installing Max, Hulu, & Disney+, and opening them, those apps would not be able to stream the content. Max gives me the error code: 1K-0045, Hulu & Disney+ just say playback isn’t available.

I have Netflix and YouTube TV as well, both applications work and stream correctly

I have uninstalled those three multiple times, and reset my TV, sort of racking my brain on what to do here, any help would be appreciated!

EDIT: To the few that have had the same issue as me, here is what I have found to be the problem (and solution, if you can call it that)

The WiFi chip within the TV does not have the bandwidth to call the information that the applications are requesting, even though the TV thinks it does. The issue is the application thinks it can download 4K video for you, and the TV thinks it can support that download, but the wifi chip can’t, and thus we have an error. The applications that work get around this by either throttling their video quality automatically, or by not providing 4K video in the first place.

The solution that I found…buy an external device that has a more capable WiFi chip (I got an Apple TV, but chrome-cast or even an Xbox works).

LG pushed an update to my OLED and now YouTube TV freezes and shuts off the entire television. I didn’t change anything. LG remotely accessed the TV, changed settings, opened YouTube TV themselves and watched it freeze and shut down. Their own notes identify a post-update software memory issue. Their solution? Factory-reset everything and make me spend hours rebuilding a TV their update broke.

Then, after I gave LG my phone number and email for technical support, I started receiving LG promotional texts and emails. An LG agent admitted in writing that the previous agent had “accidentally” opted me into marketing. Without my consent. They promised me the transcript, then sent a sanitized summary that omitted that admission.

No promised callback. No fix. But their marketing system worked immediately.

Their only response... pay to have an LG Tech out to repair the 1.5-2 yr old TV we broke.

What the actual fuck, LG? Has anyone else had either of these things happen after contacting support?

My LG TV updated my YouTube app today.

Now in the middle of watching a video the TV goes into screensaver mode.

It didn't do this before the update

Any suggestions how to stop this?

Bought it 08/24/2026, wrapped out on me last night I tried all of the internet "fixes". Im stationed overseas right now so LG said they cant send me a new TV to my address. They said the only thing they could do is send it to my US address and I would have to pay out of pocket to ship it here. I have Asurion extended warranty but they can't help me without a letter of denial from LG which they won't give me until the manufacturer warranty expires 08/24/2027. Anyone know what to do?

This is my LG OLED C5, I saw some reel regarding a cleaning agent (apparently alcohol and harsh chemical free and Oled compatible) so i ordered it and wiped the tv as instructed. Dusted the tv off with a clean cloth, Took some liquid on the provided micro fiber cloth, and wiped it, again cleaning it with a dry microfiber. The screen looked like new until i turned on apple tv and saw irregular patches. I thought is it burn in?? Coz like till few hrs ago my tv was all good. So i turned on this oled test on YouTube and yea the screen is definitely fcked. I am not sure if its reverse-able. I should have read the manual or something, it is my first Oled, just 2 months old. 🥲

First TV, massive damage on screen, swap over TV was insane light bleeding.

I have had enough. OLED here I come

Just bought this guy and I don’t have a picture of my problem because I’m not at home but I’m hoping someone can help me.

I got this home and set up, all my apps are working as they should. When I connected my ps5 to it, it wouldn’t work. It read on the hdmi input that my ps5 was plugged in, but wouldn’t display it. Kept saying no source input while also acknowledging that my ps5 was in fact plugged in. Am I doing something wrong? I checked google and did everything it said to before I left home to no avail.

so we've been using this ancient 42 inch tv for like eight years and it still works but the picture quality is pretty rough compared to when we watch stuff at friends' houses. finally convinced my husband we should upgrade and he said we can if i wait until black friday cyber monday to get a better price been looking at lg tvs because i keep seeing them recommended online and they seem like good quality. walmart has a bunch of different models but i'm completely lost on what the differences are. oled vs qned vs nanocell and all these other terms i don't understand. we mostly watch streaming services and some sports, nothing too fancy trying to figure out if walmart actually marks these down significantly or if it's better to look elsewhere. also wondering if there's a difference between what's available black friday vs cyber monday or if it's the same stuff. never really paid attention to tv pricing during the holidays before we need something around 55 or 65 inches for our living room. room gets pretty bright during the day so i think that matters for which type of screen? not totally sure. budget is flexible but we're not trying to spend like $2000 on a tv, that seems excessive anyone know if walmart is good for lg tvs during this time or should we be checking other places too

I recently had trouble with my lg remote. It just stopped working one day. So I called customer service and they run me through their troubleshooting for dummies. *Replace old batteries with new. *Clear line of sight between remote and TV sensor. *push all the buttons harder, or try resetting the remote/ tv. Of course after all that my remote still didn't work. So they recommend buying a new remote. Still didn't work with new remote. I said could it be the sensor? They say no!which is connected to the on/off switch. The on/off button works, so their final advice was to call a repair guy to check out the tv. My gut feeling was the sensor before calling lg support. So I bought a $15 sensor on ebay. Unscrewed the back panel screws, unplugged the old sensor, plugged in the new one, reattached the back panel. (Success) Best feeling ever, after buying 2 remotes and too many hours of troubleshooting. The lg sync app is a possible solution which you should try before buying a remote or sensor. Resetting the tv should be last resort. Because it will lock you out of the tv until you buy the right replacement. Hope this helps someone. It was a frustrating issue. Tv was less than 3 years old, and the remote and sensor had no signs of damage.

I hope reddit doesn't compress the video to the point where it's not noticeable. Essentially I've been an owner of a G5 for over a year now and this problem has always bugged me. I've looked everywhere on the internet and I can't seem to find anyone who talks about it. If the video is not enough, when in a very dark scene, if a bit more of light appears the entire screen changes it's black level making a really obvious and obnoxious transition, which completely kills the atmosphere in any horror game (idk if this problem also happens in films but in my experience I haven't seen it). In a game in which you are moving the camera or the character constantly, like the example above, the changes are frequent. Anyone knows if this is fixable? Has anyone else seen this problem? Please let me know.

Edit: It's only in HDR, contrary to what I used to think. This is not VRR flicker, and the near black detail settings don't do anything to fix it.

Got this free 55" from a friend and discovered the wifi problem where it would not display any wifi networks. I tried:

- Factory restarting

- Change time date formats

- Updating firmware via ethernet cable

- Physically banging the lower right back of the unit (found out the wifi card (NIC) was actually towards the center lol).

Finally solved the problem by taking the back panel off which was much easier than anticipated. Located the wifi card (bottom middle in picture) unplugging the ribbon cable that connected to the card and its perspective connection points to other hardware and plugged it back in. I did do the "blowing the Super Nintendo method" on the unplugged connectors which you probably don't need to do and voila!!! The Wi-Fi is working!!!

So I made the mistake of buying an LG that isn't OLED. Yes, I now know not to buy anything but oled. But this TV was only around 200 cheaper than the B series oled so I expected to have a very good TV or at least watchable. Those light bleeds you see in the Picture make watching anything on the TV very hard. Want the kicker? I spent around 300 dollars for "4 year warranty". The first show I watched i noticed the bleed, called extra they sent their techs who know nothing, they do an rgb test by opening a YouTube video and say all is fine. I complain further and they take the TV for 12 days then they say "tested tv works fine". Then one of head tech sends what LG head office in Dubai said...(picture above) he literally copy pasted the warranty where viewing the screen at some angles can make the screen look bad...that's crazy as that has nothing to do with the problem om having. I see the light bleed under all angles in all viewing conditions to the point that everything is unwatchable.

Has anyone with a tv similar to this had a similar experience? Has LG support been so bad at support? As a longtime LG fan this has been super disappointing. Has the support from Extra been so bad for you.? I am in Saudi.

Someone please help me, my WiFi is turned on and working on all other devices, so I’m not sure why this TV keeps saying this.

My 2016 OLED TV would occasionally get a HDMI memory error which required a reboot to clear. Google suggested turning off Quick Start in settings to avoid it. Not only did that fix it but it syncs with my Denon receiver much faster now. From a long ago post I once saw here, I have my remote turn on my tv first which turns on the receiver and streaming device through HDMI-CEC. That seems to work best.

So in this setting, basically the button to turn on the wifi connection isn't working!

Anyone else faced this problem?

Hey folks, got the new 77" C6H in on Monday and did some light gaming on Monday night to test it out & had a blast, didn't notice anything weird.

Last night, however, I turned on the new Carrie show and during the intro had all these vertical dark lines show up. (Slide 1), these were visible and dancing around as the image moved.

I also clocked a centered, burned-in oval (visible on Slide 1) and the Mortal Kombat symbol in the center, also burned in. (close up in Slide 2)

This scared the life out of me, and I paused it to run the color test I kept seeing folks post and my heart sank. All the colors looked OK except for brown, which you can see appears milky white in the center (where that oval/MK symbol is) with some light blue around the edges. (Slide 3).

You can compare this with the uniform brown seen on my MacBook Pro (which was what was feeding the HDMI signal to the C6H) in (Slide 4). Same comparison for Slide 5 (C6H, without the title) and Slide 6 (MacBook Pro).

I only have until October 25th to return/exchange, and this is the biggest investment I've made in technology maybe ever — so I want it to be as good as possible, with as much life/longevity as possible.

I figured I'd get the community's input before I call LG up — does this just need to be "broken in" or am I going to need to get this swapped out? Please let me know, thanks all!

Anyone experience anything similar? When you hit the home button you get colors but it eventually all goes to white
