G5 brightness options locked after WebOS26/43.21.77 update (please read description)

I put off WebOS26 update for a while and just updated recently when the new update prompt arrived. Took a risk and it bit me, I know. But hoping there’s someone that can help me figure out how to get these options back.

Main gaming on PC using HDR game optimiser. Input set to PC.

Main gripe is losing the expression enhancer. I switched between the brightness and detail depending on games.

I noticed energy saving step was enabled automatically post update while on YouTube the other day, but I switched it off as soon as I noticed.

I tried disabling 4.4.4, QMS, Simplink and DV for PC. All options turned off still same issue.

Tried using other picture modes, still greyed out.

I only noticed it today when I tried to play around playing Silent Hill.

Any help welcome.

PSA: LG G6 partner store sales

Just stumbled across this awesome deal in the partner store. The free sound bar (S80TR) is on sale right now for 540 too, so bake that into your mental math.

I had been in the market upgrading my C2 for a couple months now. I had recently offered 2k on greentoe for a 65 inch G5, so I pulled the trigger when I saw this deal.

For anyone curious how to get on the partner store, the easiest way is via a Hulu subscription

LG 83 C6H Uniformity Improvement

Posting this because I’ve seen a lot of people with new LG OLEDs that have uniformity issues out of the box. Lots of comments immediately jump
to saying “return it”

I bought my 83 C6H a couple of months ago and didn’t have time to fully unbox it until now. When I first turned it on I noticed some blotchy spots in menus on my Apple TV. Pulled up a test video and the uniformity was terrible. I thought I was screwed since the return window passed.

Decided to let the TV run for several hours based on suggestions I read, since the TV is supposed to run a light pixel refresh cycle after 4 hours of use. I had low expectations, but the difference is night and day.

So not to say that some uniformity issues aren’t permanent, but give it 4-8 hours of runtime before you draw a conclusion.

This happens on my new C6 OLED while gaming. What might be causing it and how to solve?

So while I am gaming this happens only on my new C6 OLED. The image gets distorted and kind of lagging while moving, especially while moving the camera very fast.

This does not occur on my LG ultragear monitor and my old TV. What might be causing this problem with the image?

For old games like ME1 it was not that big of a deal, but for games like cyberpunk 2077 it's terrible.

Wtf is the LG warranty

I have a C4 that I bought completely new in November 2024 from a big tech store. A little over a week ago, I put in a request for repair of my panel, since it has great amounts of dead pixels. Well over a few hundred, right next to one another.

The warranty conditions clearly state that the warranty is 24 months, beginning at the date of purchase. I provided LG with the original invoice and receipt and expected they‘ll send someone over to repair without a problem.

However, they keep giving me some bullshit about how my TV was manufactured in March 2024 and thus isn‘t considered a new device anymore following their warranty guidelines. I tried three times via the new support, explicitly stating that their own policy disproves them but no chance. I then used the „letter to the CEO“ but they also won‘t budge.

What the actual fuck? The warranty they give was one of the main factors why I even bought their fault-prone OLED. How can they just deny warranty claims for reasons that aren‘t even in their policy?

Does anyone else have experience with this? Should I keep on pushing or should I just give up and never buy anything LG again?

LG G5 PS5Pro handshake issue?

Hi, I’m writing here because I have noticed that sometimes when I play on my ps5 pro the image is less sharp and bright, the problem is solved if I shut down the ps5 and I boot up in this sequence:
Ps5 on
Wait 5/10 sec.
Power on TV

After this sequence the image is beautiful as before.

Has someone had this particular problem? It’s annoying every time I want to play having first to verify if image it’s ok and doing that sequence. Feels like a ps2 cheat code😅

Thanks in advance for the help
