But its hard to have an aesthetically acceptable 5.1/7.1 setup in the living room... my ID will have a stroke if I tried it..

u do need some space n work for a proper 5.1.

the most challenging bit is how to lay cables and speakers for the 2 side speakers.

one can cut back on this and place the 2 side speakers on top or next to the 2 front speakers.

of course, this isn't ideal as the surround effects are much reduced.

still, i think this "compromised 5.1" is better than any soundbar.

Hi, I have tried to update Netflix on my Android TV for few days, unfortunately, it stills can't work...  sad.gif  sad.gif  sad.gif
*
the latest, current and final firmware for this ue630x is:

android 6.0.1
security patch 1 jan 2018
build 31200 mcu91

when u try update, the message should be "it is the latest software" if u r up to date.

netflix works fine with it, expect no more updates.

before u try updating again, do this - unplug the power for 1 min, then power it up.

this model ue630x is coming up 4 yrs old.

i bought it with 2+3 extended warranty, covered for another year plus.

but it's still v good, no problems, keep using...

in fact, for 1080p, i find the PQ better than newer ua6800x! thumbsup.gif

Hi,

I am a new guy in this forums and very happy for finding a place where seems can give me advice for my Sharp 50UE630X. I got a problem about ATV+DTV tuning: the UE630X can identify 75 channels (55 ATV and 20 DTV) only while the others (SA5500X for example) can identify 64 DTV channels (both use the same cab service supplier). I don’t care about ATV channels because the PQ is not good, but only 20 DTV channels which missing many important ones (HBO, Cinemax, Foxmovies ...) is big problem. I’v checked the TV’s specs of the UE630X and the new one UA6800, they are the same.  I appreciate if someone can consult me for this situation! Thanks
*
i suppose u mean:

ATV = analogue tv; DTV = digital tv.

local DTV offers HBO, Cinemax, Foxmovies?

Yes, ATV means Analogue TV and DTV means Digital TV and local DTV does offer HBO, Cinemax and Foxmovies, I can watch these on the SA5500 but can’t find them on the UE630X.
*
who is the provider of HBO, cinemax, foxmovies on DTV? prices?
can u provide links for the subscriptions, like to know more.

I am from Vietnam (Hanoi) and Hanoicab is the supplier (price is about $5.00/month for a pack of channels where HBO, CINEMAX and FOXMOVIES are among these).

OK, that explains it. biggrin.gif

Your local = vietnam
My local = malaysia

malaysia no such paid entertainment dtv service, only satellite n iptv.

Yr price $5 is good.

hello, frens, what is the latest firmware version? I tried to update my ue630x, but failed, it says download site not accessible or something.

are there any chance sharp stopped supporting this model?
*
i have android 6.0.1, last update security patch dated 1 Jan 2018.

no more updates after that, i believe.

netflix, youtube are working OK, fine.

everything else ok... sideloading apps, kodi, chromecast, wifi, ethernet... i see no change, working fine as usual.

Anyone with similar experience?

Did anyone face this issue with your UE630X TV? My Youtube app is not working properly, when it plays the video, it display horizontal lines and unable to view the video. You can hear the audio but image is horizontal line. When you stop the video, Youtube app exited and says got problem. This started about 2 weeks ago.

Hi, I'm facing the same issue on YouTube like you. Tried uninstall but the only option I have is downgrade. Trying that also no difference.
*
i just checked... yes, youtube on ue630x has bad video, lines...

i tried a couple of things, sideloaded other versions - no success.

i think this 5 yr old tv android 6 support for youtube is over.

netflix still ok.

unifitv ok but audio remains after exit.


my other sharp ua6800x, 2 yrs old, all ok, no such issues.

Tv, box, any device.... get only 1 android version upgrade.

Industry standard.

Forget assthrow on this tv.... even u can install, live tv cannot work.

Asspeople wanna control, squeeze $... they spend millions on this, cant blame them.

Better use it for other atv apps.

Netflix works good.

iqiyi works fine... i paid rm1.90 for first month.

later, think rm8 or 9.... cheap.

Anyone face the issue where the TV is stuck in a loop during startup? Can't seem to get it to hard reset as well

unplug the power, plug it back, switch on.

if still in a loop, something has gone very wrong, likely need technician to fix.

BTW just to share. For the above issues i share, luckily during the home expo I bought the extended warranty.

After an email sent to ESH representatives along with pictures and video of the issue, the insurance company approved the claim…

…to change to a brand new latest TV model with similar spec. Now just wait 🤩

just for the record... for UE630x ATV:

unifi playTV app in playstore is now v1.2.17 - works good.

if u r unifi ultimate user, u can now have Lionsgate and iQiyi (or other choice) apps installed and activated.

all 3 apps work well on ATV, reasonable PQ, plenty of stuff to watch - all for free. thumbsup.gif


in addition, youtube is back, working good now.

just uninstall, reinstall from playstore, all is good.

enjoy, all is good!

also, unifiTV app used to have this problem of audio continuing after exit - this is solved with v1.2.17.

this ue630x is my fav TV, even after >6 years - excellent PQ, only that it is non HDR.

My LC-UE630x YouTube stopped working about 2 weeks ago.
Then I used mobile phone to cast. Today it has stopped working.

Luckily still can cast using laptop.

I'm think it is because of Android version 6? Needs to update the Android version?
Your TV still ok ah?
*
Still working v gud.

YouTube v2.17.006.

Disney+, unifitv all good.

TV is still superb for everything except non HDR.

I m surprised it lasted so long!!

I've just realised that my RSS player also cannot use even when I side loaded version 1.2.3 and 1.2.1

I've done factory reset. YouTube totally cannot use.
Trying out Puffin TV Browser to watch YouTube.

I plan to set up my Kodi soon.

Before I do all that, I'm thinking of upgrading my Android 6 to the latest. You think can ah? Worry that I will be making it worse... LoL!

Seems no one is upgrading their TV's Android.
*
RSS... i remember there isn't an ATV version; the regular android version does not work well on ATV.

surprised u cant get youtube to work... i manually installed YouTube v2.17.006 a year ago, still good now.


kodi... i hv given up using it, more so on ATV.

it was useful for a time but now, legit ATV streaming apps like D+H, unifiTV, iQiyi are cheap n very reliable.


no, u can't upgrade android os further even if u try.

last security patch 1 jan 2018 will reject; android 6.0.1 is final.

Hi I know this is an old thread but anyone able to update their old tv? My model is the LC-UE630X and when I open Netflix, it says I need to update but when I do I couldn’t update it. It’s an old old firmware version from 30800_20170216 to 31200_20180207. Couldn’t find the firmware download cause wanna try using USB. The internet download just won’t go through via the TV.

I hv same TV, still gud.

I just checked... Utube, unifitv, Disney+H all working.

Netflix... I dun hv subscription but it's working, prompting me to subscribe.

At settings, I see:

Android security patch 1 Jan 2018
Version 6.0.1
Build 31200 muc91

Apps, Netflix
Build 8.3.4 version 4625.

I can’t go through with the update via internet. Internet on tv was working fine as I am able to play videos on YouTube. Where can I download the version build manually so I can use USB to update? It’s not available on Sharp’s website.
*
if your netflix version isn't the one i hv, may be worth trying to sideload manually.

i hv never sideloaded netflix this way. so, i dunno if it will work.

possible system security may reject. however, i did it once with youtube, OK.

try at own risk but i think u hv nothing to lose since current one isn't working anymore.
