Sony AF8 Android 8.0 Oreo Update Not Working

georgie1312 — Tue, 20 Aug 2019 09:59:00 GMT

I’ve read that the Android 8.0 update has began rolling out since May 22nd, however my TV cannot find the update, as it says it’s currently running the latest software, and is running firmware 6.5629. Sony said the update will be rolling out over the next few weeks after May 22nd, but it’s now the end of August and my TV has received nothing. I’d prefer not to update the tv using the USB method, so hoping someone can help.

Thanks

Hi @georgie1312

Unfortunately this is a user only community, so the only people that can help you are Sony UK Support . This question crops up quite often, so if you do get an answer would you please update this thread, as it will be of interest to many.

hi, i would hold on and turn off auto update.

community forums littered with people who cannot now connect to the internet.

here is mine

see https://community.sony.co.uk/t5/android-tv/sony-bravia-tv-no-internet-access-since-v8-0-0-v6-6520-kernel-3/m-p/2640747#M37949

You will see the ext naive debugging i’ve done as well and their answer

im in Uk with 5 year john lewis warranty, so in 10 days they will be my next port of call.

so obvious it’s update related, if only we could roll back via USB install
