Apple, Netflix, Amazon etc

What worked for me is going to settings or “get help” on the Netflix app and reload it

I swear mine has never worked.. I haven’t used this tv in a while but when it used to be in my living room in a previous apt I think I connected a Firestick bc the apps on this tv don’t work. Now it’s in my bedroom & reminding me why it was unused for the last few yrs 🙃

I disconnected my TV and finally downloaded today!

42la620s-az firmware

now that "netflix will no longer be supported on the device" message has appear on my LG TV
it's a old tv of abt 10 years

You get any streaming stick

Amazon Fire TV

Apple TV

Google TV

Roku

Can you redownload apps with the plus sign? I have a bravia with the same interface and I can click the plus symbol and install new apps

It’s always better to get something else to steam on. Apps sometimes don’t get updated on TVs. Software sometimes is buggy. Wifi cards stop working and then working gain 1 year later. Happens all the time.

Ye pg wala tv hai na?

I think you have to set it up

LG uses WebOS. If the app works on Android TV boxes, get one of those. Make sure it's compatible with Netflix and/or has Chromecast built in, not necessarily to use those features but that ensures that it has Google's stamp of approval.

The answer is because Money… either spectrum was paid/sold to keep the apps within a certain few ecosystems or they refuse to pay to have it developed for LG

Blame LG for not carrying the app. Simple as that.

Because you touch yourself at night

The answer is simple. LG and Spectrum couldn't come to an agreement. The Spectrum TV app is carried by companies who have a contract with Spectrum. At one point Roku and Spectrum couldn't come to an agreement and for a short time it was taken off of Roku TVs. Of course they eventually did come to an agreement, because some customers only have Roku's to watch Spectrum TV, because it's the cheapest option if you do not have a compatible device already. Roku customers complained to Roku and viola, it was back on. If LG customers did the same, then it would happen the same way. Trust me, the more devices are supported, the more money Spectrum makes. LG just won't carry the app. It's all about money.

Looking for the best Netflix VPN? Check out the wiki! https://www.reddit.com/r/NetflixViaVPN/wiki/index

I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically. Please contact the moderators of this subreddit if you have any questions or concerns.

Your tv needs to be connected to the VPN for this to work. You need a middle man device to connect to your internet and host the VPN, then connect your tv to it. There are raspberry pi devices and routers that can do this.

If you have desktop-pc lying around or with raspberry devices, you can install NordVPN on them and share the internet. Make your LG tv connect to that shared network.

Here are the instructions. https://support.nordvpn.com/Connectivity/Windows/1441319672/Share-VPN-via-a-mobile-hotspot-on-Windows-10.htm

Get maximum out of your vpn by checking out the movies missing in your country but streaming in other countries.

How do you understand, if you're streaming 4K or HD? I'd like to find out too. I don't know if I'm watching 4K or HD.

usually it takes about 30 to 45 seconds for it to ramp all the way up to 4K. If you waited that long and you still don't get anything higher than 1080p then you should make sure your TV has the latest firmware update. If that doesn't fix it then look up the model number on the TV and go to AVSforum to find the owner's thread to see if anyone else has the same problem. Sounds like an LG app update problem

please see https://www.reddit.com/r/netflix/comments/dhpek6/some_shows_movies_are_not_streaming_in_4k/

Basically, there is nothing you can do about this - it is down to Netflix and their unreliable CDNs. They deliberately downgrade your connection, for their convenience and cost-saving (to stop their CDN to use up lots of bandwidiths to deliver content to you).

Suggest you to downgrade your 4K package to HD package since most of contents on netflix are HD (1080p / 720p).

And Netflix put both Smart TV (and its apps) and PC as lowest priority for their development. They prefer to focus on developing their apps on mobile devices. If you must need to watch 4K contents - I suggest you to use your mobile device to download netflix app and then download your contents in 4K or HD, and then you cast it over to your TV. That way, you can watch contents in 4K or HD without worrying about having NEtflix to downgrade your connections or deliver sub-HD contents to your smart tv.

Turning off test participation in netflix account online works for me on my B7.

Hey guys, someone in another thread figured out a fix. Turn off "Test participation" in your account settings. I had to reset my TV as well, but this worked.

I would like to confirm. After dealing with this for weeks with my LG OLED E7P. Talking to Netflix customer service, them telling me that there was something wrong with my television meanwhile Vision still worked fine on all other apps, they told me to contact LG. I thought that was stupid being it still worked fine in LG and other apps and it was and a Netflix problem, but I went ahead and contacted LG. They told me the same thing, it's Netflix problem contact them. I read the thing on here about going to the Netflix website, going to settings, test participation, and setting it to "off."

I did that, and magic! My Doby Vision programming has returned to all my Netflix shows on the LG app! Shame on Netflix for real! Best of luck everyone! But make sure you turn off "test participation" in your Netflix settings on the site!

What's something that has Dolby vision on Netflix I'll give it a try, I've got a C2.

Mines the same pal, must have been latest update. Works fine through Xbox app though

Not et so far no problem

What modem do you have. This happens on my eero all the time and I have to go to the app to turn netflix on. In my case its a family member doing it remotely to piss me off.

This is weird because my CX (and C6 and B7) all go to the last input (HDMI 1, 2, TV, etc.) but won’t go to Netflix or YouTube on startup (unless I use the Netflix button.)

But I want it to start on YouTube and haven’t found a way to do this.

Are they hitting the netflix button on the remote? With my tv off, if I hit the netflix button it turns on the TV and goes right to netflix

Check this setting… Settings >General> System > Additional Settings> Home Settings> Power On Screen

Pretty sure it returns to the last used input/app as a convenience. Turn on the homescreen startup setting to avoid it

If you don't exit the Netflix app before turning off the TV, it will open back up to Netflix when you power back on.

I always know when my wife watches Netflix before b d due to this.
