What exactly do you mean by this ? The 950h firmware is later than that...If you are with 64758G you mist the H train dude....

After uppdate
Dont you think?
Hi,So do you think leaving auto update on would be safe and work if your 950G model has the H firmware?
Also, I thought someone says the "special" G firmware had the newer menus.
I just want to know if there's any drawbacks to using the H firmware on the 950G as I'd like to update the TV and see if newer firnware improves anything. I can't check eArc right now so don't want to use the H if the G firmware addressed that problem better.

Hey I am installing most recent 950H software. Unzipping the first one than putting the zip file inside the one i unzip onto usb(brand new) It keeps saying cannot update software using my USB. Please help man.Hi,
Everything is better on the H.

Hi has this tv had its HDMI 2.1 features firmware update yet?
Can you update G from 6 3632 to V6 4774 downloaded the 4774 file extracted it, put on to USB stick newly formatted to FAT 32 so empty, put in tv, says i have inserted a stick do i want to read it with media etc, can open it, it says it has android app on it, but nothing happens, can you not go from 3632 to 4774.
cheers Chris
It doesn't matter if the USB stick is empty or not. You should have the update in .zip-format on the root. Do not unpack the whole folder structure to the stick. Some of the downloadables are packed twice for some reason i.e. download a zip -file from Sony and there is another .zip file inside (unpack and use that). Some of the updates are not, just copy that .zip to stick. TV does the unpacking of the "last" .zip-file.
If you have the process you claim you know works then please share it so we can all benefit. But please also spell it out. Your words " Some of the updates are not, just copy that .zip to stick". appear to be unfinished! Are not what?
...Are not zipped/packed twice (when you extract the file you downloaded from Sony there isn't another zip-file inside again) and is usable as such. Sometimes there is and you have to unpack it (and you get a folder with another .zip to use. revision x4774 had it like this). Simply put, copy the zip-file in to USB, not the unpacked folder with all the files. Only one .zip -file to USB. This is not an answer just for you (maybe it works). Others have had problems with this as well.
Based on the above have Sony put an end to updating the XG95 with the XH95 firmware then?
I've had issues updating my XG in the past no matter what I did, in the end it worked after I'd left the USB with the firmware on it plugged into TV and forgot about it. Used TV as normal, turned power off at the wall and the next day when I turned TV on it picked up the update on the USB. The update process for me wasn't an exact science but luck
Sony may well have implemented a change to stop XG owners installing XH firmware or it could just be your TVs a ****
I'd have to check my posting history but it was over 2 months ago when I updated my XG. I updated to the 6.4770 firmware when it was first released on website and confirmed working.Yes definitely more miss than hit. I assume your success was 4774 (XH) firmware update?
How long ago was this?

I can check when I get home if it's still on the USB stick I used. I doubt it's on my PC, I did a disk cleanup last week.That would be good if you could please, as I think what Sony have done has been done in their latest update release and therefor probably post your update, you lucky lucky guy
Reading between the lines they have also played around with eARC function which has now also prevented the TV from connecting to an external amp with that capability. Again no matter what you try/do they will not speak to each other. Sony have seemingly admitted this problem being due to their latest firmware fix on 3632, in which I believe they removed the ability for the XG to update to 4774.
I have just realised you talk of 4770, not 4774. Do you by chance still have a download of that firmware somewhere on a PC?
