Thx ,will try.

On Facebook,
they suggest to contact service center....1800 888 678 to lodge a service report, so as to assign a technician to my home to rectify the problem.

Edit:
Service report lunch, probably next week technician will attend at my home address.

Oh wow!  shocking.gif
Changing the screen is very big fault.
I would have thought only need to change the motherboard
*
Yea,
technician didnt show much interest to check deeply.
I google that this kind of failure is mostly "TAB error" or losing connection on ribbon cable to screen (a simple re-seating of the cables usually helps).
As is under warranty.let them to change panel.

I cannot use Netflix on my LC-50UA6800X because it demands the Android Software to be updated. But whenever I try to update the TV via OTA, it says "cannot access the network". Also tried to google if I can download the software manually and put it in a flashdrive, but I cannot also find anything.

Does somebody here experienced the "cannot access the network" thingy? sad.gif

If you are on LAN connection, change to WiFi.
Is happen to me also.

Is there a remote control app (Android/Apple) available for the UA6800X ? There's a Sharp app but can't use it, both Android and Apple.

All Sharp UA6800X owners, not sure whether you faced the same issue like mine. I just bought a new 60UA6800X from Harvey last week @ RM2880 (5 Years Warranty). Not sure whether it is a good deal but it's below my budget of <RM3K. They do have 60UA6500X @ RM2500 but some of the missing features make switched last minute (no ATV, less HDMI port, no ARC, panel color gamut lower). Initially wanna go for Samsung Q60R 65" at RM5500 (5 Years) but have to let go due to much higher price.
When I test HDR color capability of the TV using 4K HDR videos from Youtube, the color stat always show bt709 (below). By right if the video support HDR, it should be bt2020. Anyone face the same issue like mine on their UA6800X ATV? I have updated my ATV to latest and UNiFi speed at 50Mbps.
Technically I think this model support HDR. I dont think it support HDR10 though, after all it is a 1.5 year old model. Nevertheless, the quality is way better than the LG 55" UB850T TV it replaced. The LG smartly went kaput right after the 5 year warranty ended and the quoted repair cost by authorised LG service center was so expensive.. will never never buy a LG TV again. Sumore, it was so expensive last time @RM5K.

Any ideas? Do you all face the same issue when running HDR content from Youtube? Thanks
*
How you test HDR color capability...?
I also want to know why in Picture setting/Advanced.....HDR Gamma Adjustment is greyed...?

Edit:

I have also bt709 from Youtube.

Hi guys,

Anybody watching 4K HDR videos from Youtube TV, what is your color status bt709 or bt2020 ?

Refer to post#2318 & 2319...




Edit:

Smart YouTube and Plex manage to turn on the HDR.
HDR Gamma Adjustment setting is available (no more greyed).
Display button also working on Remote control showing is HDR contest.

Edit:

YouTube in HDR quality requires hardware (firmware) support for the ‘VP9 Profile2’ .

Woke up this morning saw this kind of vertical line across the screen. This month will be 2 years for my sharp. Is it possible to claim warranty? Bought extra warranty from senheng.


*
Yea, same as me a year ago (my line has been on right side).
If warranty ok, they will change screen (panel) or if no stock,complete TV (as me).

Strange that they claim panel from Japan has so many complain...... confused.gif

Btw,
anybody on Netflix can watch in HDR ?

My YouTube TV app, HDR contest go back to SDR (BT.709).

This TV boder me so much about YouTube HDR content.

HDR content are displaying as SDR (bt.709) on UA6800X series TV's and Sharp need released a firmware update (?) to enable YouTube HDR.
YouTube in HDR quality requires hardware (firmware) support for the ‘VP9 Profile2’ (vp09.02).

Now I have 2 apps installed which replace YouTube TV. They force VP9 (HDR) codec.

First is Smart YouTube TV,

deducated for Android TV,works very well for HDR content.


Second is YouTube Vanced (NON-ROOT) ,

deducated mostly for phones, but a bit with mouse help, works very nice for Android TV (acting as YouTube Premium).
Need to install apps + MicroG Vanced + Manager (optional).
More info can get on XDA or XDA forum.


Note:
When you watch real HDR content in Picture setting/ Advanced/ HDR Gamma Adjustment is no more greyed.... thumbsup.gif :
