Dear Toengel;
With exceptional happiness and gratitude to you, I can confirm now that I safe my TV ass, literary! :)
When I record on mine 8GB FAT32 USB Stick the extrapolated “upgrade_loader.pkg” file from your last here recommended, the “TPM191E_201.000.248.217_upgrade_loader.zip” file, and then connect this of mine USB stick via my TV and then connect it to a power source, it immediately show on my TV screen the “Software upgrade in progress… message now!!! :)
So, it stays like that for about half an hour, then it first show an official Philips corp. logo and after that also the androidtv logo, and after that he initially ask that I Pair my TV remote controller with this of mine Philips TV, for which I found instructions via official PDF Manual for this of mine Philips TV model, page 8.
After that, everything was just the day I bought this TV for the very first time some 4 years ago, so I need to set everything like in the past…, but I successfully safe my TV, thank Goodness and thank to You! :)
In this Phillips TV Settings -> Update software -> Current software info, it says now that I have installed:
a) Version: TPM191E_R.201.000.248.217
b) Creation date: Thu Mar 21 11:24:20 CST 2024
In this Phillips TV Android Settings -> Device Preferences -> About, it says also this:
a) Device name: 43PUS8545/12
b) Model: TPM191E
c) Android TV OS version: 11
d) Android TV OS security patch level: 5 February 2024
e) Kernel version: 4.9.285-ab3651, #1 Thu Mar 21 11:14:07 CST 2024
f) Android TV OS build: RTT2.211108.001 release-keys
Now, my final question for you, my Philips TV now offering in its Settings -> Update software -> Search for updates -> Internet (recommended), an even more newer Software update installation than it is now!
Can I even proceed to that Update now, or just totally disregard and simply set to: OFF???
Thank you once again for help and advice!!!
Philippa
