Hi all sifus,

Am looking to buy a Sharp LC-60UE630X soon. Can you all recommend a good full motion TV mount to go with this TV? From what I have read on the specifications, the TV has 400mm X 400mm VESA mounting holes dimensions.

I have seen some good full motion mounts that fit within my budget such as Ross LNRTA800-RO or Sanus F180 but not sure if they work with 60UE630X and if there are better mounts around. i really need good advice as I actually intend to get the mount first to be installed by my renovation contractor. The TV will only come when my finances are better tongue.gif

Many thanks!

RM4099 for 60inUE630 is good price.

By da way, my UE630 has a funny habit. When i try to switch it off using the remote, it will turn on itself again seconds later! happens so many times.

anybody know if this is a software issue or defect?

Probably due to HDMI-CEC. Other items (AVR, Box, Disc Player) are allowed to "on" & "off" the tv). Happens on my Samsung tv from time to time.

thanks for the feedback. I only use the normal remote (for the back, up, down, left, right and select buttons) and a wireless mouse and keyboard.

Should i turn the HDMI-CEC on or off? the TV also came wif another media remote, bluetooth connection. should I disconnect that?

My Sharp is currently also updating. But... still stuck at 0% so damn long

"Installing the software..." then got an exclamation mark with E999 on the screen for an hour already.

Cant find on Google what is E999 about.

this is unusual.

"updating 0%" goes on for like 10mins, likely cleaning up old flies... then it starts to move, complete.

what's the end result?

After 2 hours, no difference. As though as hang. Took a screenshot then sent to my retailer ESH. He called me and said he ll arrange for a Sharp technician to come over and do the update for me via USB. He also adds that he doesn't recommend firmware update over internet.

After the conversation, I turn the TV off and on again. Doesn't seem to have a problem but the firmware update prompt is still there.

audio... not much diff that i notice.

android reboot - this also happen sometimes with previous firmware.
it looks like... for some reason, maybe a bug caused by a sideloaded app (?), it failed to update, aborted.

back to android5 is still alright.

Is it common to have side loaded apps causing conflicts with the Android system itself?

Need to reinstall the sideloaded apps upon updating of the Android?

in your case, the apps were working fine before... so u can continue to use since firmware wasn't updated.

i suspect the abortion was due to an app which did not pass the security checks before firmware update.

u can remove all your sideload apps, try updating again.

if successful, u reinstall can the apps.
but i i would suggest u either continue to use as it is or wait for the technician to come fix it - this will be better to ensure u do not brick the android!

Technician came and updated the software. Took about 35mins. Downside is all my sideloaded apps is gone.

Reinstalling one by one now.

However, I cant seem to sideload the PlayTV@Unifi APK. Using version Tablet 7.8.9 from APKPure.

Comes out a prompt with option to "Cancel" only. "Install" option not highlighted therefore cant select.

Here are my findings after the latest update:-

1.My TV sound speaker a bit soft after the latest update. Usually 15 was enough. Now need to crank up to 20.

2.When ON TV after standby mode(long hours), it will auto reboot. (green screen then reboot)
*
Same here. Volume need to crank up lots!


QUOTE(AVFAN @ Mar 19 2018, 06:24 PM)
it seems the latest security update comes with new restrictions - more apps will not be allowed to be sideloaded.
quite clear to me now this is an androidtv thingy.

unifi playtv can't be installed but astrogo 8.0.4.2 will.
unifi playtv also cannot be cast with chromecast/googlecast from phone or tablet!!

Regretted the update bruce.gif No pros only cons!
