Re: LG OLED55B8PLA problem

Thanks all, I purchased the bundle, 50€ wasn‘t that much so I thought I‘ll just buy it. I have to wait now and until the package arrives I‘ll try downgrading the TV. If that works I‘ll just have some spare parts laying around. I‘ll post an update and let you guys know! I just hope it isn‘t the panel.

Re: LG OLED55B8PLA problem

Problem just came back today..

I took the t-con out of the tv today and looked for short circuits on the board with my multimeter. All of the capacitors on DVDD09_CORE have a short to ground, I couldn‘t locate it.

The fuses on t-con are good.

Q6006 in the PMIC section does look a little bit weird too, maybe burned? it‘s not melted or something, but the surface is much darker and matte in the middle, it‘s not fingerprint or oil. I made a picture of it, not the best but I hope you can see what I mean....

Re: LG OLED55B8PLA problem

yes it worked and I did as you said. I hope the issue is solved now, but I‘ll see in a week. If it works i leave tv on current firmware and won‘t update/downgrade it anymore.

Re: LG OLED55B8PLA problem

This was actually the method i meant, the one you linked.
I got the TV on 05.30.25 now, currently downloading 04.10.06 maybe I even downgrade it on this version. But the method you said should work on 05.30.25 also? Just do a factory reset (in_stop) now?

Re: LG OLED55B8PLA problem

I tried downgrading with LgDTVUpDater but I always get a Error on the Tv „There was a problem to update, software will be reverted to previous version“. I tried with both firmwares. Notebook and Tv are connected with LAN / Ethernet, Firewall is disabled and I can see the update on screen, but everytime I click on „yes“ to update, the error message shows up. Maybe the firmware I‘m on now doesn‘t allow downgrading anymore? Or I‘m doing something wrong. I did exactly as described on a German website.

edit: just found out it won‘t...

Re: LG OLED55B8PLA problem

It‘s on 05.40.26, should be the newest one

Hey there,
So I got a problem with my LG OLED TV (OLED55B8PLA).

the problem is that the tv won‘t power on some times, the led stays red and won‘t even blink, just solid red when I try to turn it on. USB devices connected won‘t light up. 1/4 of the screen (left side) shows some green „clouds“ that are getting brighter everytime I turn the tv on and after some tries the tv finally turns on. Sometimes it takes 10 tries and some times 100 or even more tries.

When the tv is on, everything works fine, hdmi outputs, usb inputs, wifi, bluetooth, etc is working...

Hey there,
I‘m from Germany, 23 years old and into „electronics“ (almost everything that‘s related to it) since I‘m 11. I started building my own PC‘s with the age of 12, I was just curious how things work, and realized it‘s pretty easy to do. Learned a little bit programming/coding at the age of 14, some html, php, c++, etc.. Then I found my other love.. cars. I love fixing things and seeing the result, being proud of yourself and the work you‘ve done, it‘s just amazing! Same thing with computers or...
