I have V231 and p725 now, but today I found out that there are V238 and V267. Why don't these firmware versions come to me via OTA? If I update myself, do I need to do a factory reset? Will I be able to roll back if I don't like this firmware?
[Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV] stasiof:
Read above....user just update from V231......

Auto update depend on country location, will take a time to be available.

No need factory reset, only maybe reset in service menu.....

If you read more, I think rollback with OTA is disabled.

Only can go back to V256 IMG file, which will wipe all your apps.
[Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV] pumkin_100:
My X925 75" device is the same R51MT06, Whether it can be installed directly?

The current software version is V8-R51MT06-LF1V005.019834

May I install via OTA?
[Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV] stasiof:
Yes,

this is OTA file for "Local update" in setting.

Hello I have 75X925 with device name googleTV5718 and the firmware information is:V8.R51MT02-LF1R011.019533 . I could not use new Firmware TCL R51MT02 V267 or R51MT06 V08 for 75X925PRO. How I can flash the firmware ? My volume control is not working now.
[Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV] stasiof:
R011 is custom firmware from April 2021.

For update, try to ask your seller.

Btw,

if you want to risk , R51MT02... V267 can be flashed ,by renaming OTA zip file V to R.

Also, you can found in previous posts......R51MT02....V256 IMG file.
[Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV] macroman798:
It is not working. Now I cannot come back. I might be waiting for new FW IMG file for 925.
[Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV] PepeBlanco:
Can you pass me the download link of the 272 img file? Thank you very much for your great work and for the selfless interest you bring us.
[Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV] stasiof:

Yes, can flash from any version, as is IMG file.

TCL didn't even post any firmware on web page yet. forget about changelog.

After flashed V272 ,update to V277 OTA.
[Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV] CriseekPL:
So I downloaded this img and I'm not able to look inside this file with explorer and 7zip, it show that is broken. With v082 I haven't this problem. I'm not feel safe to install this firmware image.
[Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV] stasiof:
Better no.

Learn first difference between OTA and IMG file and how to flash.

Btw,

nothing wrong with V407 IMG file....(only for you !).....
[Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV] averro:
Is there any best suggest for image setting calibration of TCL P725/C725 ???

Thx a lot :)
[Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV] christonge:
Check it out here
[Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV] CriseekPL:
I know how to flash it uses img as a source and it has entire system with separated partitions. And you just opened the zip file not the img itself. Where I could see files for every part of system (boot, system, apps) and also compatibility list.

And this not opening on this versions makes me think that this image is faulty.
[Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV] stasiof:
C728/C825...... T615T01 or T615T03 IMG file can't be opened or extracted, as is build in one peace (compressed) .

This is only platform with smallest size of .img file...arround ~1.7+ - 1.8GB.

Other platforms .img file can be extracted and size is arround ~3GB.

Keep in mind.... :)

Btw,

in previous post you mentioned V082 file.

So far,as i know, no IMG file for this release, only OTA version.
[Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV] jorbik:
Hi everyone, I own this TV and I would like to switch from Android TV to Google TV which firmware should I install first? Thanks for the reply.
[Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV] CriseekPL:
Yeah I was wrong to this. I compared v407 with v714.

v714 is a flashable .zip under android system from settings, where v407 is a image file to flash under (fastboot?) as you said and it may be different.
[Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV] stasiof:
XDA is English forum, so please use translator or similar......

So.......P725/C725 (P815,S546).....

Versions after V267.....

V272.020169...IMG... Sep 09 2021

R003.020267...IMG.. Oct 27 2021

R006.020297...IMG... Nov 08 2021

V418.020389...IMG... Dec 10 2021...Google TV (T05)

V277.020239...OTA... Dec 16 2021

R166.020438...IMG... Dec 21 2021...Google TV (T05)

V254.020472...OTA... Jan 07 2022 ...Google TV (T05)

You can flash V418 IMG file alone.

or/and

R166 IMG and eventually update with V254 OTA (V must rename to R....no other text of zip file).
[Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV] stasiof:
Again you are wrong...NO V714 .

Only V414.......

:rolleyes:
[Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV] CriseekPL:
Typo I meant v414.
[Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV] stasiof:
So, understand now better ?
[Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV] CriseekPL:
Yes, I think.

Conclusion from this that .img can break my TV cause it makes deep file swap. Flashing this is equal to make a complete wipe user data?
[Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV] jorbik:
Excuse me you're right, I pasted the part in Italian.

Thanks a lot for the answer
[Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV] stasiof:
IMG file will erase your additional apps and user data.

However, picture and sound setting will remain.

Initial setting is required again.

IMG flashing can't break nothing ,as is also used as recovery file.
[Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV] PepeBlanco:
Hello, I wanted to ask if anyone, after inserting the R166 file when updating with V254, has seen that the image is a little unstable and it is not as fluid. Thanks
[Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV] stasiof:
As noted earlier, V254 is deducated for N.America S546 model and some functions will not works 100% with

other models.

[Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV] christonge:

[Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV] Atwd:
Did someone understand the meaning of these names?

For example why V254 is newer than v418? I expect the higher the number, the newer the version

[Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV] gabs81:
Hello, I have the 65" c825 model for about 2 months. After going through android TV, then version 407 with Google TV, now I have version 414, which is the fastest and most stable that I have tried so far, However, I have suffered several problems with the television, I have read that the same has happened to several, some are:

it restarts for no apparent reason (has happened to me 3 times)

navigating through the menus slows down and then goes back to normal

Wi-Fi connection is lost on power up randomly. It does not recognize any Wi-Fi network, it must be restarted

It changes time zone despite being configured correctly (I live in Chile and my time zone is -3.00 GMT) it shows the time as 00.00 GMT

I have connected a xiaomi mi box s and a fire stick 4k and I cannot control either of them with the tv remote despite having the CEC activated.

in youtube 4K videos with shots of large landscapes like the videos of the "Earth Relaxation" channel, it does not present dropped frames, however sometimes it presents micro stutters and the fluidity of the image is lost for an instant.

Another thing I notice is that the google tv interface is full hd and not 4k, which makes it look blurry and undefined when looking a little closer

I don't know if it has happened to you or if I had the bad luck to buy a defective television.

Despite everything, I'm still happy with the TV, I hope that stays the same.

Greetings from Chile

Hi guys, my tcl 75x925 is still on android security may 5 2021. I don't think this is normal. I have read an article that tcl is updating on a regular base. I did not receive a single update since I got it in December.

[Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV] derekm323f:
Hey matrix79.

I have the same set and purchased it back in November. I received the v029 update just before Christmas via network update. I read somewhere that enabling “auto update” helps. Is you’re looking to manually obtain the v029 file and flash tv then go back to page 29 of this forum and find the post by stasiof. Hopefully the link is still active. You will also see v114 so you could try that but I did and had to go back to v029 due to some “bugs”.
[Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV] matrix79:
Hi I am in v114,found on this forum. It is just strange that I don't get the security updates. Can I roll back to the original firmware?
[Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV] TWijit:

[Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV] derekm323f:
I just checked my settings and my security patch level is 5 May 2021. Maybe others can answer the question better. How do you find v114? I had some issues such as picture brightness dims unexpectedly so I went back to v029.
[Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV] matrix79:
I have bad internet connection. Wifi signal drops... this tv should be able to use wifi 6. If i activate ax mode on my router the tv can't find my 5ghz signaI. Only if I disable DFS it works but not at high speed. I bought a usb 3 to ethernet adapter. It only goes to 85 Mbps. I ordered another brand now to test.

Google tv is verry unresponsive. Every few days when I power on the tv I get test images... white,blue,red,green, this is verry annoying. Short answer I am not satisfied with this TV

Yes.

You have V272 firmware and can update with V277 OTA file (still Android 11).

V427 IMG file firmware is Google TV system.

For WiFi use 5GHz band and should give you around 170-180 Mbps speed.

[Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV] stasiof:
Go to post #623, download V277 zip file and copy to USB.

Insert USB in TV input and in setting software update,choose Local update.

After update to V277 ,open Service menu and do Reset All and Reset shop.

Btw,

read more post in this thread how to do certain things....

All is posted here, just need to read (or use search function).

Edit:

Just checked, your 75C725 Project ID is 6440 (4 digit).

For Europe region, V277 auto update is available only with Project ID with 3 digit.
