@Martin:
First of all, Philips officially offered the xxx.207 software as an automatic update for the 909 TV series. The responsibility for ensuring that this works on every device on which an official release is offered lies with the manufacturer and not with the customer.
I don’t really understand why Android 14 shouldn’t run on a fairly recent device (the microcontroller is powerful enough), which includes the 2023/2024 lineup. Philips still offers the OLED 909 series as its top models, as the website clearly shows. And if this is absolutely no longer feasible, Philips should not activate one more update for these devices.
As an electrical engineering/communications engineer who has been developing embedded software for 40 years, I cannot understand why such poor software is being released by a global corporation. Every reasonably reputable company today has a testing department where releases are only approved after they have passed extensive testing. Philips should thoroughly rethink its own working methods here.
In the past I saw similar negative results on the 804 model from 2019 and had to downgrade. It is unacceptable that this is still happening. Same with the 8505, which also own.
But you’re right, it’s best to stick with Android 12 for now. I described my problem on page 20, which fortunately disappeared after the downgrade. Hope that upcoming releases do not fail this way.
