Hello reg66,

I have installed the Projectivy Launcher. But unfortunately that is not a big improvement. I have set it to start on HDMI 1. But when I turn the TV off and then turn it back on, Google TV comes back. It only works if I am always in standby mode. And that works without the Projectivy Launcher.
[Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV] fan88:
What else, does anyone know the TCL TV replacement code for the C755? For a different remote control Are they 3-digit or 4-digit?

[Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV] svgyula:
A simple question. If your phone turns off. When you then turn on, does the main image appear? That's how it works. But you should understand this is not a simple television! They don't sell it like that! This is a smart television!

Which is a Google TV. An Android system is working on this. Just like on the cell phone.

Hello, after switching on google TV always appears

No matter what I enter in Projectivy Launcher.

Before the whole thing is too complicated! Measure the consumption completely off. Then measure it in the recommended condition! There will be a 2-3W difference between the two. So have you been tired for several weeks?

Hi gentlemen! The TV TCL C645. So far, I have not found a setting for the Power Less funktion. Yesterday was a power outage. When I got home there was Power back. The TV worked! The other problem is not unique! The TV also switches the amplifier. I watched when the Power less . So I didn't turn it off! When the current TV+amplifier turns on. It's not good this way! You should avoid this!

I have the C745 TV and i am desperately looking for a way to disable HDR, as it's forced on content that should not be in HDR at all. Anyone that can help? The expert calibration menu does not show the option to turn off HDR mode as I've seen on other people's C745 model so maybe it's hidden for some reason.

Hi all!

I got the TV TCL 75" 75P735. Just updated the firmware to the latest.

Sad that we can't see the changelog.

Any news when TCL gonna unlock the Bluetooth feature ''Dual pair 2 pairs of Headphone'' Just as Samsung can do? Right now, you can connect 2 pair of headphones, but only one of them gets the sound from the TV.

My solution is to have a BT-transmitter, works great.. but being able to connect the headphones as on the Samsung devices would be even greater!

There is no chance TCL gonna give this TV Android 15?

I use an android box with mine, specifically a Ugoos AM8 Pro. It enables me to display constant Dolby Vision or constant SDR or HDR, and can even convert HDR content to SDR on the fly. Plus it displays in 3840x2160p rather than the 1080p that TCL displays in the standard OS.

[Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV] Naxo98:
I just updated my TCL55C645 to version V620, and what was my surprise when I found a very annoying bug. I have the front LED of the TV turned off permanently since the TV is installed in a bedroom and the LED bothered me. It has always worked perfectly for me and it turns out that after updating the TV yesterday the LED no longer turns off. When you turn off the TV, the LED stays off and after a few hours it turns on by itself, even if you have the LED off option in the TV settings. Any solution for this? Does anyone know if the V99 beta will take a long time to reach us via OTA?

thank you!!
[Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV] stasiof:
Under front TCL logo (and 4 LED's) is TV power button and MIC switch.

[Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV] Naxo98:
I know, I'm referring to the on and off LED on the TV... I don't know if installing beta v999 could solve the problem... do you know how long it takes for the betas to officially come out via ota to the TV directly?
[Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV] reg66:
If you've updated manually I don't believe you'll get ota. Almost certainly not v999 betas. You'll have to update manually

Hey, I have a weird problem that maybe someone is facing or has a solution for.

I have a TCL 55c645 and I brought an Apple TV 4k 2022.

The issue I'm facing is, that whenever I play Dolby Vision stuff from the Apple TV after that it fails to move back to SDR and recognizes the SDR content from Apple TV as Dolby Vision. So no picture just sound. Only a reboot of the TV will fix it until I play a DV video again.

I tried multiple Roms from here. Multiple cables even restoring everithing to factory.

But the same issue happens always.

For now, I'm using it like the Apple TV is set up to not just automatically swich depending content but instead stay in SDR with all content played.

Does anyone know how to fix this issue or what seems to be causing the problem?

All help would be appreciated

Hi, I have V8-T653T01-LF1v098.000861 on my TCL C745 at the moment and there is no OTA updates available, is this correct firmware to upgrade it ? I have problem with wifi speed where its limited to 100mbps and I think its software limitation.

Also is it possible to upgrade this tv from Android TV to Google TV ? just yes or no and if yes ill do some reading, thanks :)
[Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV] kurtschmeichel:
Not sure that this update will remove wifi software limitation. People are rolling back from V135 as V098 or V127 are more stable.

The C745 with T653T01 platform already has Google TV.
[Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV] Wieczor19:
Thanks, is it same follow method to downgrade the firmware ? and do they provide any changelogs for the firmwares ?

for some reason it doesnt like V135 OTA with error "the validation of update package failed and system update stopped" - do I need to have internet access for the validation ?

Hi,

Has anyone experienced buffering for 3-5 seconds when streaming Bluray remux files every couple of minutes (DV or HDR content) that have more than +60 GB. I have 1 Gbps connection and I'm able to get around 250 mbps on the TV which is more than enough to run remux files without buffering or stuttering. Im using kodi v21.0, also tried stremio with the same result.

I'm currently running V98 that was updated through the official channels. I think before V98 I had V28 and i didnt have the issues that I'm having right now.

I have tried playing the same couple of movies on my laptop and they work flawlessly.

[Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV] stasiof:

[Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV] Gaara34:
There is something wrong here.

Before the 614 update, the 613 update came for the T615T03 platform. (May 25)

The shared updates do not say which region they are for. Previous update for C745x1;
[Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV] stasiof:
Better don't commenting ,if you don't know how TCL release updates.

I posted you above that there is many regions and every region is independed.

To receive auto update ,firmware version is depend of TV Project ID (region).

Of course, there is manual update, which bypass TCL auto delivery of firmwares.

Again......V614 came from EU region and last EU version was been V603 released in January.

V613 was never released for EU region.

Untill now....V614.

P.S.

No need to post me links, as I am well awared of every link. :)
[Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV] Gaara34:
This is a forum site. I can comment on topics I don't know, I can learn from the answers. Is there a problem with that?

You say there are many regions. But do the shared updates indicate which region they come from? I don't see it.

My personal opinion is that TCL's regional updates are another nonsense. I thought it was a platform-based update.

It is really hard to understand TCL's update policy.

Google Chrome is not in Google Play and is hard to install.
