Hi,

Please help understanding HDR. I have a 49pus7100/12, now after update 43pus7100/12 with actual qm163e.0.16.56.0. Ps4 pro and xbox one says that it has HDR, but in menus I can't see a single mention (and can't see true difference, maybe for the low budget panel).

Now read from Toengel that Philips insert as an accident and the old version of NVM/EED Does not has related menu.

...So , updating NVM/EED will make me get an update with HDR menu or will disable it at all?

How can I check my NVM/EED without having warranty problems?

REALLY THANKS FOR THE ANSWERS

What you said is true, it is what i have undrestood too. Do not disturb the sleeping dog, if you have hdr leave the nvm as you have, ok we have a poor hdr but in this way you can see content made to be saw with hdr only. If you install the correct nvm you loose hdr 100% and you do not improve nothing. I have the nvm file stored but i think i will never use.
[Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV] tristano10:
Are you sure?

Now, When is enabled on both console, I have the impression that looks like just little bit worse with. Where can I find at least something to prove for real that this feature exists on my tv and is not just a consolle trick?

Thanks for the answer
[Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV] brigidino:
you can try with netflix, if you activate the top rate you will find HDR content, if u play a movie and you press the configuration button on the remote, you can select the sub menu image. You will see you cannot adjust nothing but you can select about 10 kind of preselected parameter.(something like games, movie, day, night....)

The first on top are with artificial frames creation, the image result sharpener but i hate the soap opera effect instead. i just use some natural effect not so much sharpened but the moviment is more natural.

Hello,

Is there a way to auto start a app when turning on the tv? I am using Smart ip tv but it doenst start up automatically when turning on the tv.

I don't think so infortunately, but I wish for that too.

Nice, so if you want to turn on your TV and arrive on the default launcher of Android TV, you just have to set leanback launcher as the startup app?

Just bought an Android TV, and got stuck with ADB. It is not prompting an access prompt when connecting...

$ adb connect 192.168.86.47:5555

* daemon not running; starting now at tcp:5037

* daemon started successfully

connected to 192.168.86.47:5555

$ adb shell

error: device unauthorized.

This adb server's $ADB_VENDOR_KEYS is not set

Try 'adb kill-server' if that seems wrong.

Have done a few attempts and extensive Googling, also tried over USB, but no magic. It's a model TPM171E (according to Android) and a 55PUS7803_12 according to Philips.

Any thoughts?

Thanks!

Does anyone know why com.droidtv.playtv refuses to show/play SD channels (black screen) but only sound?

HD works perfectly fine but SD doesn't. I'm using TVHeadend Live Channel to watch TV on my 6400 series.

Can i report it somewere to get this resolved?

I also tried it with Live Channels from Google but that app constantly gives me a channel information notification popup that does not vanish by it self.

[Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV] MareleVlad:
It seems at first that the EPG finally shows the correct accentuated characters (diacritics).

The 2D to 3D meniu option is no longer there. It was the only one that worked like it should :)))))

3D side by side and all the rest STILL DON'T WORK as they should !!! Only the left half of the picture is shown. 3D is not working for 1080p sources. The only workaround is if you have 4K resolution external player device, then the 3D Side By Side works as it should, it combines the left and right half of the video signal.

Hi,

Thanks for the update. I have a question. What does this exactly mean?

IMPORTANT:

It is recommended that after successful installation (ie when the TV is running again), the TV 2-3 minutes from the power to take (previously, of course, put in standby and wait 2 minutes).

What if my TV stuck in bootloop after this update? PUS6401
[Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV] an0therus3r:
Any news on TPM171E devices?

Does anyone know how to gain adb access to a PUS6412/12? It is getting very annoying now to constantly suppress TV Storage FC messages and was hoping to have more insight in the issue using adb.

Does this fix DTS 5.1 (and other sound issues) over ARC? Or in practice proper utilization of the Android audio API.

Hi

I have a 49PUS7170/12 that was lots of issues with it, I called Philips support and complain several time, after a while they want me to send it in for service. When I got the tv back from service, they had upgrade it to 49PUS7170/R2. When I started up my Xbox One X it was 640x480 screen, I notice that was no 4k support, when I tried to manually change the settings to 4k on the Xbox One X, the tv tells me its not supporting 4k. I called Philips again and complain, later a new software was released to the tv, I installed it and the 4k was back, but when I was playing a 3D blu-ray on my Xbox One X, it's tells me that the tv is not supporting 3D.

I called them back and they sent me the 49PUS7170_R2_111_NVM_EED to fix this, I followed the instructions and unzipped the files to a usb-stick, plugged it into the tv usb2 port, reconnected the power cable, tv starts up automatically with a green screen, after 2-3 minutes it turns off, I restart the tv and the update text shows up. After 20 minutes, I reconnect all devices and started up my Xbox One X and notice the 4k is gone after the fix and 3D is back. I called the Philips again and they want me to send it in for service, when I got the tv back it has both 4k and 3D, but when I play a 3D blu-ray, I only see the left side of the image, but if I rip the same movie to my computer and play it on my Xbox One X with vlc and chose sbs, it work fine without any issue. I also notice when you stops a 3D blu-ray on my Xbox One X and when it tries to switch back to 2D, the tv says that the video format can not be used, the screen goes black, I had to switch to other hdmi port, then 2D shows up and I can switch back to Xbox One X with picture . I called Philips again about the 3D issue and explain that its not working when watching on blu-ray and working when streaming the movie, but they don't really know what I talking about, after a while their tech want me to run the 49PUS7170_R2_111_NVM_EED again and so I did. After the fix 4k is gone and 3D are back, but it still not working playing 3D blu-ray, you only see the left side and when I try to play it with vlc is not working either to play 3D stream, you only see the left side. I called Philips again to complain and they are trying to investigate the issue they told me, 3 days ago I installed the latest update and 4k is now back and 3D is now gone, my devices says that the tv is not supporting 3D.

Do you know any solution to get the 3D/4k issue fixed?

Have Philips sent me the wrong file?

Why does the tv start of it self and screen turns green after the usb with fix is inserted, will this means it installs the fix?

Thank you for your time

Sincerely

Thomas

Need help with my 49PUS7909/12!!

hi

i was filling in some service menu codes i found on the internet, after that my whole tv got stuck and when i removed te power plug and plugged it back in the tv suddenly my whole lcd screen started to flicker..

When i boot the television the philips logo is looking normal and after that it begins again..

I allready tried recovery modus, factory reset and firmware downgrade to version AND1E_000.009.225.000.upg and upgrade it again but nothing works ?! Can't find anyone with this same problem..

See a couple of videos of the problem:

youtube.com/playlist?list=PLGMz1R-VIB0EdObB_1eCLjoRgGRUPTs2Q

my tv is just past his 3th year and i allready contacted philips but the guaranty is only 2 years and i can send it to repair but dont want to pay hunderds of euros for repair..

i tried some of this codes from this site before this happend

tips-trick-electronic.blogspot.com/2014/05/philips-tv-service-mode.html

The strange thing is when it boots it doesnt flicker even a couple of seconds in recovery modus and then the screen goes black and then the flickering starts.

It looks more like a software problem than a hardware problem but i tried al sort of firmware's and removal tools and put in again some service menu codes but nothing fixed this weird problem.:(

Please help me !!

[Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV] Toengel:
HI,

ok - what is not working with DTS? Source? Player?

Toengel@Alex
[Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV] ckarv:
The audio "skips" every now and then, especially for multichannel audio, using the built in cast function, built-in Android apps and TV (both antenna and cable). DTS 5.1 passthrough does not work, unless I turn off passthrough, which only gives me stereo.

This is the case when I have the TV connected, via HDMI and ARC, to my A/V receiver.

Seems like the "skipping" happens more often when audio is of a higher bitrate.

Thanks
[Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV] tdanielsson:
Hi Toengel

Thank you for your answer, but the issue I have after I run the patch that Philips want me to run, is that 4k got lost and 3D stopped to work on sbs, after latest update the 4k come back. But I cant activate 3D on my Xbox One X, the 3D options is greyed out and on my PS4 Pro 3D options are gone, if i try to play a 3D blu-ray anyway, it tells me that the tv is not supporting 3D.

Previous time this happened when Philips told me to runt the patch, I had to sent it in for service to get it fixed, when I got the tv back it worked to activate 3D on Xbox One X and PS4 Pro, although watching on 3D blu-ray only left side work and on 3D blu-ray rip the 3D works with sbs.

So what can I do with the tv, so I can activate 3D on my consoles? As they get the information from the tv now that the tv is not supporting 3D, is like when I run the patch Philips, then the tv tells the consoles that is not supporting 4k.

With source device is 4k, it's working, do you mean that 3D should work on Xbox one X with 4k, when watching on a 3D blu-ray? As for me earlier, I got only left side on 3D blu-ray and with 3D rip sbs, the 3D worked.

Thank you

Hi,

new firmware for TPM171E is online: https://toengel.net/philipsblog/201...018er-tvs-mit-android-tv-7-tpm171e-3-0-246-5/

Toengel@Alex
[Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV] MareleVlad:
Hi Thomas,

I got confirmation that after EVERY update we lose the 3D and HDR capabilities of our sets.

For devices to recognize the TV as being 3D capable, you will need to upload the NVM.BIN and NVM.EED files into the TV after EVERY update this TV set gets.

I have put the NVM.BIN and NVM.EED on my 55PUS7150/R2 and got back the 3D detection, and now my Xbox One S recognizes the TV as being 3D capable again. Also, when I enable HDR, now my TV is being able to comute to HDR when HDR signel is being sent to it.

Now regarding to the 3D issue we still have, the only workaround is to fed 4K resolution via HDMI and put the 3D Movie on an external device. As long as the TV has a 4K signal, the 3D Side By Side works as it should and both eyes perspective are being correctly displayed.

My current setup that let's me see 3D movies contains the following:

I have Kodi installed on to Xbox One S, which is configured to output 4K resolution. I play the 3D movie rips via Kodi by putting the file on an USB Stick into the Xbox One S.

Kodi handles wonderfully the 3D Movies and also the interface is being doubled half and half, Side By Side. All works perfect as long as you feed the signal to the TV as being 4K.

(It is just so stupid that Philips decided to block the 3D options when we use Kodi as an internal app on the TV. It is just so stupid, I can't even speak. If you know a way we can force the 3D options everywhere please let me know. )

Now, as for the NVM.BIN and NVM.EED please see the attached archive and follow the instructions. You need to make sure you put the correct file version on the USB stick. Also you need to rename. Again, please read the instructions in the archive and follow step by step.

PS: Please let me know and send us the files if you have newer NVM.BIN and NVM.EED files than the ones I provide.

I am searching for newer versions, but the last one I have found is from 07/12/2017.

Please send us the newer file if you have it!!!

Cheers,

Vlad

I have no words either. I am outraged.

I have warranty until January 2020 (it was new old stock bought this year).

If they don't fix this TV until then, I will request my money back as the TV doesn't have the functions I have paid for.

Philips can go f**k themselves!

Good morning!

I have a 43PUS6432/12 since a few months.

I am experiencing problems with the built in Chromecast. If the TV is powered ON it works fine for a couple of hours. Later on Google Home can't find the device and I can not cast anything.

Resetting the TV to factory default often helps.

I have a Chromecast Ultra connected to the very same router and it works flawlessly all the time.

Any ideas?

Thanks!
[Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV] Toengel:
Hi,

did you install the latest firmware 16.102.9? If yes und you still have issues, uninstall Google Cast updates within the app management of your TV...

Toengel@Alex
[Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV] MareleVlad:
Hi Toengel@Alex,

Can you please provide us the latest NVM.BIN and NVM.EED files for the upgraded R2 and R3 TV's?

You mentioned that the latest files don't have HDR enabled. I have HDR enabled (with files from 07-12-2017). I don't have the latest version. Maybe on the latest files the 3D works better.

I have called the service here in Romania and they don't know anything about any NVM.BIN and NVM.EED files. It seems they don't know what they are talking about. The entire Philips service is incredible stupid, top to bottom. This is the worst company ever.

So, please help us with the latest files as I can't manage to get them from anybody else.

Thank you in advance.

Cheers,

Later Edit:

Hi,

The TV still have the same 3D issues like before, with the new NVM.BIN and NVM.EED files.

As a bonus, now the TV is no longer being detected as HDR capable TV :)))) What a piece of **** of a company.

So it seems that the 3D issue is a firmware issue after all. The 3D works only with 4K sources.

Something that nobody told us is that after every software update you will need to install the BIN and EED files. Otherwise the devices will no longer recognize the TV as being 3D capable.

It is incredible how they don't test this **** before they send it to the customers. Especially that it is considered to be a new and fixed revision board. It is incredible the lack of professionalism that the Philips employees have.

I will go back to the old NVM.BIN and NVM.EED files. At least we have the HDR enabled.

Cheers,

Vlad

Hi!

Thanks for a quick reply, much appreciated!

I have the very latest firmware which on the homepage says:

Version:000.016.102.009, zip fil , 950.2 MB, publicerad den 20 juni 2018

Will try and reset the TV again after this firmware upgrade.

Is it possible to update the firmware/software specifically for the Chromecast like a separate device?

Also tried deleting the chromecast in Google Home and reinstalled it again. Will post back with the result.
[Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV] tdanielsson:
Hi Vlad

Thank you for your reply.

I have called Philips many times, but they don't know nothing about the 3D issue and when I try to explain that 3D is not working correctly with 3D blu-ray and its working with 3D rip sbs, they don't understand what I mean.

Mostly every time I call them, they ask me what I done to troubleshoot it myself, last time they told me to run the bin/eed again I got from them, when i'm running the file the 4k disappears for me and I have to wait to next software update to get 4k back on my tv, so I got so p****d o** and I told them to f**k o**, when I phone them back next day.

So i'm unsure if I should try to run the files again to get 3D support back for my Xbox One X or if 4k will disappears again, if I run it?

The files I got from Philips seems to be the same size/date as in the zip-archive, but maybe the files in the zip-archive works better?

Is it possible to reinstall the software on the tv, if the 4k will fail after the bin/eed update ?

Thank you

Have a nice day

Sincerely

Thomas
[Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV] MareleVlad:
Hi Thomas,

Just use the correct NVM.BIN and EED files I have uploaded. The last ones that they provide have HDR disabled. Also there is no improvement on the 3D side, the workaround is the same, just use 4K resolution sources to have the 3D SBS working.

You can install the bin/eed files and then go back to a previous version. You can overwrite them if you whant to go back. Just make sure the file is the correct file for your TV model. You can't go wrong.

I don't have issue with 4K missing. Only with HDR and 3D detection after the firmware upgrades. Just install my files and test the display settings in the Xbox One, and let me know if the TV is being found as 3D and HDR capable.

I also have done downgrade of the firmware and have gone back to Android 5. The 3D issue is still there even on the oldest firmware this TV had, so there is no point in anybody else going to the trouble of downgrading. Nothing will get solved. As an added issue, I no longer have the DemoMe video file installed after I have downgraded, and I don't know how I can get it back. The app is there but the video file isn't.

Please let me know if the old BIN/EED files helped.

Cheers,

Vlad
