reposting my own below from another thread.

unifi playtv app 7.9.2 works fine on ua6800x.

together with astrogo, u can watch all of them with just the tv, the remote and a mouse - in pretty good video quality.
also, if u do not already know... youtube offers several int'l live news channels now - channel news asia, bernama, aljzeera, bloomberg in hd, CGTN in sd.

check, be sure it is 8.2.6 - this is the current and most stable version.

then, try this:

go settings, about, restart - to restart the android.

Currently my first choice is Hisense U7A. One seller from lazada selling it for RM2500~ for 55inch.
Meanwhile waiting for April bonus I am still surveying TVs huhu

still doesnt work

u must hv did something incorrect. try below, step by step, it will work.

mine is now at android 7.0, how to update to android 8.0? tried software update but nothing appears related to 8.0

that is strange; u shud hv received a prompt to update by now; the update arrived a couple of months ago.

u can contact sharp service and ask.

what size is yr tv?

what internet speed? wifi or ethernet?


astrogo can work with android7 but need a couple diff steps.

how to make it work on android 7.0 ya?

2 things additional:

.. sideload chrome or brave browser.
.. install from playstore INDIC keyboard, set to default.

okay i will try to uninstall astrogo first, the follow this two things 1st before reinstalling astrogo

You've got confirmation ttat it for sure works on Android OS v8.0.. For all we know, there are new stuffs intro or removed before the bump that makes it more favorable for the app to work. I suggest you first upgrade to the latest firmware as most with working AOTG have.. Before you continue troubleshooting. If I may ask, why not pursuing this first?

hi, 4TC50AL1X at esh is 2370, is that a good buy compare with some offer at lazada of model LC50UA6800X below 2k? latest model always better?

ua6800x is almost a year old, at tail end, about to be phased out, i wud think.

best to view both side by side, decide.

generally, a newer model is preferred.

but price diff is quite big...

both android 8, no major tech diff afaik.

newbie experience in using LC50UA6800X for 1 week+.

1. use Google Play Store to search for Sideload Launcher app and install it.
2. use the Puffin browser to search for APKPure app and install it.
APKPure app is to install apps not found in Google Play Store. such as, njoi and astrogo.

screen mirroring from android phone to tv
1. android phone first install Google Home app.
2. android phone launch it to screen mirroring to tv.

screen mirroring from ipad to tv
1. tv install airplay receiver app or similar apps.
2. ipad then can airplay to the tv.

the lc50ua6800x wifi can only connect to 2.4GHz wifi, and not 5GHz wifi.
could the sharp 2019 model can?

btw, thestar epaper app. installed but unable to read. anyone managed to get it work properly at this tv?

it does 5ghz.

maybe yr distance too far or router issue.

if all ok, do a settings/about/restart - that may help.

Want to ask, Sharp LC50UA6800X or Sony KD-49X8000E better?

connected 5GHz wifi after having router rebooted.

Hi All,

Just got my 4TC60AL1X delivered yesterday.

It is mentioned LED Backlight on the Box.. Not sure if its referring to Edge / Full
On the manual, it says the manual is applicable for 4TC60AL1X & 4TC70AL1X

Spec wise :

Android os 8.0
LAN Port : 10/ 100 Mbps.
WLAN : AC 5ghz


I can use all applications and features which i was previously using on my Minix Android Box.


- Astro on the go & Viu ( orientation app installed )
- Netflix HDR & Youtube HDR Preinstalled
- Directv now, BBC I player,
- Unifi TV, Hotstar App for indian TV shows
- Sideload launcher and Orientation installed ( Thanks to this thread)
- Able to connect my Tronsmart G02 gamepad via Bluetooth to play games.
- Able to use Minix A3 Remote Air mouse and keyboard works fine.


Few questions which i need help with :

1) I noticed the tv remote has a button power devices. Can i program it to control my sony soundbar ? If yes please guide.

2)What is the recommended output method to achieve best sound quality. Currently connected my thru optic cable from TV to Soundbar. Not using any other devices.
At the moment i choose "Bitrate [SPDF]" as output.. there is also PCM and Dolby Digital in my tv
Whereas my soundbar supports dolby true HD
