Never tried 562 but I was on test 10,11 and 12 now. It's a lot smoother than last two I tested.

Hdr10plus missing imax picture setting. If they fix it I'll be happy 100%!
[Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV] stasiof:
Latest is V503.
[Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV] borygo77:
Stop saying this bull****!

Where did you got it from? I'm telling you 825 works smoothly like never before on any firmware! You can stay on Android tv if you wish but stop repeating something which you got no idea!
[Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV] tonarii:
I was in test version 9 and now i use OTA v562.

I have the modifications of UI and the new game bar but also in addition things not present in my test version 9.

For instance the tv ui is slightly different.

I do not know if the dates of versions are real.

Do you have the release date of test 9 ?

Because on the mega links it's 04/21 (i don't think that's the good one but that must be close enough).

So v562 was for C845 ? (i took it from the mega link and the "Platform" name was the same as my C835 so i used it without checking)
[Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV] nghiadang391:
has anyone mounted the C835 or C935 to the wall ? They have the subwoofer in the back so I'm still considering whether I should. Imo I think it cause a little bit vibration to the TV components inside.
[Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV] Under666:
I have 65c835 mounted on the wall. I do not feel any vibrations, but when I increase the sound drastically the TV plastic cover starts cracking on some movies.
[Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV] nghiadang391:
my TV do crack the plastic back when its heat raise high, it's quite normal for that kind of material so don't worry

V8-T615T03-LF1V562 GameBar 2.00.24.apk Don't work in C825.

it asks to activate the game master, even activating it does not work.

Is game master the same thing as game mode? settings/system ?
[Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV] HexedHavoc:
So I updated my c835 (55") to c562 and now when I hit the 3 line button on the remote, where it normally had the option to turn HGIG on or off and response from balanced/fast etc... that no longer shows up, where do I find that now??

cheers
[Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV] bl33ch0r:
Even though I have a different model (C735) maybe this will help: In order to be able to start the new GameBar the TV must get a "gaming signal", meaning the source (PS5, XBOX, PC) must send an ALLM or VRR signal. Otherwise you will get the error message that Game Master needs to be activated.
[Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV] johnnypearl:
Yes, I already opened several games on the PC and it didn't work, before I just put the hdmi 2.0 cable that I have on the PC and even on the desktop the gamebar already worked, on the PC things are different from consoles.
[Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV] Vhiktor:
I updated my C835 with 558 img.

My original version was V8-T615T03-LF1X172.000296.

After the update rebooting the tv, TCL logo appears fine but when Google TV was loaded the picture is completely black. If I check very close hardly to see the picture. It's like the backlight doesn't work or shuts down. If I unplug the TV, then plug and turning on, then the TCL logo is fine but after that there is no backlight :(
[Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV] stasiof:
Did you have (saved) picture with Product info page in setting, where is Project ID, client type.... all listed ?

I asume maybe need to change Project ID number, as per firmware X172

your TV is not retail version.

Another try is "blind" change ID, just need to know your TV size (not guaranty will work).

Maybe also try to flash with lower IMG file version, let say V440 (or even lower).

Equivalent to X172.000296 is V438.000296 version dated May 10 2022.

I don't have any X... version firmware.

Last resort is to change mainboard (according to panel type) or X... version IMG file ,provided by local TCL support.

Edit:

I saw you posted on Hungarian forum ,but there I am not member....
[Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV] stasiof:
I saw you settle with V470 IMG....

Btw,

is NOT V558 IMG fault

......as mentioned above your pre-production TV Project ID is not in V558 fw.

Without changing ID, you will be limited only up to V503 firmware.

All fw versions above, will give you black screen.

:D

Think twice before you posting this kind of silly bolded statement....:rolleyes:

Spoiler content hidden.
[Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV] Vhiktor:
Thank you for the detailed answer.

IMG 470 works fine.

I will correct my statement in that forum with your detailed answer.

Product information
[Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV] stasiof:
Thanks for posting product info page with all details.

Your present Project ID....4398 is no more exist .

To continue be able to install latest firmwares, you need to change your 65C835 TV Project ID to 5456 (EU region).

Just my advise.....:).

Attached...normal retail 65C835 TV project ID (Europe region)

Edit:

How to modify the project ID:

This operation is performed with the remote control (or phone):

- Power on the TV

- Do the key sequence 0 6 2 5 9 8 MENU 5 4 5 6

- At the end of the key sequence the TV must reboots alone if the project ID has been understood by the TV. If it doesn’t, update the product with the last software available and try again.

Instruction attached...
[Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV] Vhiktor:
Is this method could brick the tv or totally safe?
[Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV] stasiof:
If you think not save, keep old Project ID.

Just remember this post ....
[Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV] Vhiktor:
I don't know, i am just asking. :)
[Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV] bl33ch0r:
Hi @stasiof, since I am thinking of manually installing the v562 update on my 98C735 (currently v503) I was wondering if I could face similar problems, because the Project ID of my TV is 2918. Do you think/know if this might be an issue?
[Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV] stasiof:
EU ID_2918 is listed in new firmware (April release), so should be no problem....:D

Mostly is problem with pre-released TV version (Engineering samples with firmwares M or X version, instead of V) and not with retail versions.
[Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV] DarMaj:
I have a question. I have Netflix, settings on full but HDR does not turn on. Neither on TCL 65C835 nor on Samsung UE55KS8000. DV is included on TCL and not on Samsung because it does not support DV. All Ultra 4K HDR movies are only displayed in 4K without HDR. What could it be?
[Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV] stasiof:
You have Premium Netflix package ?

In playback setting ,Data usage per screen check to...High.

Usual content is in Dolby Vision or HDR10+.

TV wiil always display what is source. maybe check Intelligent pic setting enable/disable.

How about YouTube HDR/HLG content ?
[Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV] DarMaj:
Yes, I have PREMIUM. Intelligent pic setting doesn't change anything. Youtube and Canal+ are ok. Apparently it's Netflix's fault.

Hi

I am new here.

I have TCL 55"C635.

My software version is V8-R51MT05-LF1508.020773

ID Project 6415

Client Tipe : TCL-EU-RTD51M-S1

I noticed some problems. Whenever I power on TV from stbye, googletv rebots and also have problems when select HDMI entry, TV don't detect any signal. Have to back to another source and then select again the initial HDMI port to get signal.

Why this happens?

Also can I update to a recent OTA software what is the best one? the most stable?

Thanks
[Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV] vojopd:
One question.

How can i know which OTA update to download? I have 65C735. Do I need to look into specific info about tv and then find what suits me the best or all ota updates are same for any region?

Or if you can point me to which stable update to install on 65C735? I am reading couple of forum threads and learning about tcl updates.

In netflix app, moving through menu is kinda slow. It was faster on my old samsung tu7000 with Tizen.

EON app is also slow, switching channels, etc.

Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance.

[Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV] DarMaj:
You have to install and judge for yourself. If you don't like it, you can always go back to the previous version.
[Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV] vojopd:
How do I go back to previous version?

Install older IMG file first then OTA you like.

[Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV] waldamer:
Good afternoon,

I'm new to this forum and I was following this thread to find an answer to my question but couldn't clearly identify it.

I have 65C935 currently flashed with V8-T615T03-LF1V503.000493, project ID 5458.

I was trying to search for the new OTA update but TV says up to date.

Does it mean for this project there's some sort of delay for the roll-out?

Kind regards.
[Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV] stasiof:
Enable Quick start in setting...

and Off TV by short press power on remote control, for stanby.

Every long press power on remote will totaly Off TV and next start will be same as reboot.
[Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV] stasiof:
There is no any update on TCL EU server.

You can update manually (V562) or wait for new update, when will be available.

I updated. Everything seems ok. Will test PS5 and VRR.

Do I understand correctly that the sources (https://mega.nz/folder/xJ8SGSIY#wpXV5mkbNXANY1qSZGQDyw) I can download the latest version for my TV V8-T615T03-LFV562 ? I have the EU version .

How to upgrade you will look up in the history it is not a problem . Just if I understand correctly and question the EU version why it does not update to these newer versions please ? Thanks guys ( or ladies 😀 ) . Have a nice day

I think the problem mostly related to your Netflix account, All hdr and Dv contents on mine worked perfectly
[Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV] DarMaj:
I don't think so. This is a problem on Netflix's side. Many people have it. Maybe it doesn't exist in your region or you don't know that it doesn't work well in your area. Does the HDR badge pop up on your TV in the upper left corner of the screen when you turn on a movie on Netflix?
[Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV] nghiadang391:
Sorry mate, I ve just rechecked, it’s true that HDR contents do not make the HDR banner appear, but DV contents are fine.
[Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV] Z00nkor:
@stasiof

Is it recommended to do the Reset All and Reset Shop after or before the upgrade or even both? I'm going to flash a C635 with v560.

I could also flash 559 OTA but i don't know if it's a good practice as I'm still on v4xx and I don't mind to do a full reset.
[Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV] stasiof:
If you flash IMG file, no need reset....
[Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV] Z00nkor:
I will flash v559 IMG, unless you recommend to go for v560.
[Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV] stasiof:
Up to you...V560 is latest.

V559 can update also with OTA file....
[Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV] Z00nkor:
I guess it's a good practice to flash the full Image as I'm coming from v4xx and if OTA should be combined with Reset All and Reset Shop I don't see the point flashing OTA tbh.
[Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV] dxnog:
I tryed to update my C635 for the first time manually with OTA file V559, but whenever i Try to update local or with power button on tv, message appears saying there is no update avalable or don't find any update file on USB drive...

Tryed to re-dowload some times but, it fails all the time.

Why this happens? Any Ideias.

TV came with version V508.
[Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV] pit6:
Check file system on

pendrive.
[Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV] dxnog:
Can you be more specific? what should I looking for? file system is FAT32

I don't understand what's wrong. The software is for my TCL C635 and when try to update says no update found...
[Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV] stasiof:
V559 OTA zip file is on USB ?

TV recognise USB when inserted ?

Tv setting...software update...local update.

Try other TV USB input.....

Reformat USB again or try other brand.
[Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV] dxnog:
Yes, extrated the zip file on USB, and the usb is recognized when inserted on port, so it's why don's understand it's says no update found.

Reformated usb drive,inserted also in the port 3.0, even with a previous update the V523, but get same message that no update is found.

May it's a problem with pen USB, will try again when get a new pen from other brand.

What pen is best, what brand do you recomend?
[Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV] leo06:
You don’t extract the OTA file, you put in the usb as it is.

Yesterday i saw this in Telegram :

New TCL T615T03 Google TV Update available in V511.

TV models .......C735 & C835 & C935.......(C728 & C825)

V8-T615T03-LF1V511.000744

V511 OTA

Link

build date= Apr 11 2023

It starts to get very confusing for me with these numbers, latest OTA was V562 with same build date, now V511...which is the newest ?! No release notes of course, as always...worst support ever in my experience !
[Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV] stasiof:
Very simple.....

V469...V474.....V503.....V511.......2022 TV models (e.g C835)

V558...V562.......2023 TV models (e.g C845)

As is same platform.... T615T03, can be installed on last year (and 2021) models.
[Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV] vojopd:
How do I disable weird backlight change. When I watch netflix in dolby atmos, changing scenes brightnesses the subtitle and scenes. I mean subtitle is sometimes full white, sometimes greyed outz It is annoying.

[Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV] Z00nkor:

I have the same issue on my C635 with v559. No idea how to fix this...
[Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV] romansavov:
Ok, but what if a 2023 models firmware is installed on 2022 model, like C735 ? Is it a bad idea and should we stick to the regular one, although it seems to work normal ?
[Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV] stasiof:
You can install either version, no problem.
[Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV] dxnog:
The problem, was that I extracted the zip file to the usb stick, that was my mistake, now all ok, sorted out. Updated to V559 without any problems.

All ok now.

I see that the is a new V560 update, althoug this is an IMG file. Any big improvments with this update?
[Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV] bgmordred:
Hello all. I'm a newbie here and I'm trying to find a solution to my problem.

I recently (few days back) bought a 65p635 google TV, and everything works fine except from ARC that is connected to a Samsung 5.1 home theater. My previous TV, a Samsung UE55HU6900, was working perfectly with it.

The problem is that although the sound passes through ARC, the audio channels aren't working properly. While testing with Dolby 5.1 audio test or Netflix test patterns, the center channel gives audio to the rear speakers also, the rear speakers channels give audio to the front also and the sub doesn't give audio at all.

I tried all the settings available. Enabling CEC, disabling CEC and sending TV audio to ARC from the menu with passthrough and auto setting. I disabled also eARC (a feature the receiver does not have). All give the same result.

I updated from v63 to v69. Made HDMI reset and software reset but to no avail.

I also tried optical cable (just for testing because the optical is used by my PC), and the channels are working fine! But the audio comes from the TV speakers also. They cannot be disabled in the menu and there isn't an option to exclusively select optical for audio output .

Does anyone have the same issue?
[Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV] garethk1979:
You need to calibrate your AV receiver by the sounds of it.
[Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV] bgmordred:
There isn't anything to calibrate to the AV receiver unfortunately... You either enable CEC or/and Audio Return Chanel. It reproduces the audio the tv sends via passthrough arc (it can decode Dolby Digital, Dolby Digital Plus, Dolby True HD, DTS Digital Surround, DTS 96 / 24,DTS-HD Master Audio)
[Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV] Kurigan:
Hi. So I installed V562 on C735. Since this seems to be update for newer versions of TV, is it possible to switch back to normal V511? I don't think firmware updating supports downgrade to lower firmware version. Thank you for response.
[Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV] stasiof:
You can download with any IMG file (T615T03).
[Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV] Kurigan:
I did, but it doesn't let me update to V511, since I already have V562. So I'm guessing switching back to firmware made native for C735 won't be possible.
[Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV] DarMaj:
It is possible but with the IMG file and the IMG method
[Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV] stasiof:
Do you know how to flash IMG file?

[Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV] amer.abdo:
Hi everyone, I need help guys, I have a 65C835 bought around 4 months ago, connected to a Yamaha AVR through EARC, everything was going great and I updated to the latest V562 and it worked without any issue for two weeks, yesterday ARC stopped working and I could change between the inputs on the AVR and the TV to get the sound back but HDMI control is missing and I no longer can control the volume through the TV remote, I tried downgrading to V503 and V462, and I tried V511 and nothing could fix the HDMI control thing, I tried 3 different HDMI 2.1 cables all with the same result. Anyone had a similar issue?
[Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV] Alepisci:
Good morning. It could be something localized, something simple like you haven't realized yet. Maybe turn CEC off/on on both devices and/or reset the TV, your receiver, etc. I mean, because I have exactly a TCL C835 and a Yamaha RX V681 and here everything is still working very well, even after updating to FW v562. I still have an Nvidia Shield connected to the TV and the three devices communicate normally. I can use any of the remotes to control volume, power on/off all.
[Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV] amer.abdo:
Thank you for the reply, in Fact I managed to fix my issue by an HDMI refresh by which turning off all my devices and remove them from power, remove all HDMI cables and wait for 15 minutes, then plugged in the HDMI cables back in and then connected the power cables and turned things on. This fixed my issue.
[Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV] romansavov:
Why the T615T03 V511 IMG was removed from Telegram and servers for download ?! Are there any problems with it, i was just going to install it on C735 ?

I used the v511 image and did the turn off / clean install thing like in instructions, but the tv says: System damaged, please update system.

Hello,

I had bought a TCL Google TV(C635) recently. However, I have a problem with Electronic Program Guide system.

Whenever I zapping the channels, EPG shows no information. Although, there is no problem with the signal and quality of the channels.

Hi Team,

Kindly help me to update my TCL 55P735 tv firmware..please tell me the step by step
[Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV] Letrinosi1:
Hi I have a PS5 and 55C835 and HDMI cable 2.1 with 4K 122 Hz support . I reinstalled the firmware from EU version 474 to 652 ( V8-T615T03-LF1V652.000747 up to date ) everything is fine but I still can't turn on VRR on PS5 . I tried the cable to both HDMI port 1 ( 144 Hz ) and port 2 ( 122 Hz ) . In the PS5 settings it tells me on trying to turn it on that my TV does not support VRR . In the TV settings again it does not turn on . Settings > system > game master ( Game master and auto latency mode on ) > VRR off ( when I click on it , it does not respond , just graphically makes it look like I pressed it but it does not change from off to on and does not expand any menu options ) . I try this setting with PS5 on and even games that should support it . In the TV settings > channels and inputs > inputs > CEC control HDMI control is enabled . When I hold down the button on the remote to bring up the Game bar , the top shows that everything is on ( FPS: 60 ) HDR and ALLM except VRR , it is forced . I have searched this forum and others here and tried things recommended somewhere , but nothing has worked . If anyone knows anything please , I would be glad . Thank you
[Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV] romansavov:
I think you mean V8-T615T03-LF1V562.000747. Maybe the problem is that you are using firmware for 2023 models. Try with V503. I have 55C735 connected to PS5 and VRR worked for me with that version.
