Title: LG 42LG5020 negative picture
Post by: Keith on March 29, 2011,08:29:41

This set has a negative / washed out picture. I thought I read somewhere about USB firmware updates for these, or maybe it was for other sets!. Anyway, can't find anywhere to download firmware and the manual I have only refers to service by interface and PC

Will give it a while to see if any one has a solution, if not I will erase the eeprom and hope!!

Thanks

Keith

Might be the same manual as you already have, but I notice it includes a section on USB uploads:

Right-click, save target as.

I have tried to update the firmware on this set, but it fails 0x00.

Has anyone got a good file for this model  42LG5020 

Or any other ideas?

Thanks

Keith

At last, managed to get a T-Con board that works! Now all is OK.
