Today's video is both highly requested, as well as long overdue. With that being said, please DO NOT FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS IF YOU ARE NOT COMFORTABLE WITH THE RISKS INVOLVED, AND ONLY INSTALL FIRMWARE SENT SECURELY BY HISENSE DIRECTLY. DO NOT FILE SHARE UPDATE FILES WITH ONE ANOTHER AS THE UPDATES YOU HAVE MAY NOT BE COMPATIBLE WITH OTHER PANELS. I TAKE NO RESPONSIBILITY FOR ANY LOSS AND/OR DAMAGE RISKS INVOLVED WITH THIS TUTORIAL, SO PLEASE FOLLOW AT YOUR OWN RISK.
With that out of the way, let's answer a question that I'm sure some of you are asking. Why use this method, and more specifically, what is this method for? Well, I'm glad you've asked...
The USB sideload method of updating, or even downgrading/rolling back your software can be used for either testing new features and/or fixes, or mitigating existing issues with an up-to-date software update. At the time of making this video, public OTA M0210 has been released to the masses and has since fixed A LOT of the lingering issues that came from the previous OTA update. It's not perfect, and that's why today we are sideloading the newest Beta software M0414, which is said to fix the leftover or newly created concerns from M0210.
The last thing I want to mention in this description is: NO, I can not share this beta software with you, and should you acquire it from the proper channels, you SHOULD NOT share it either.
I hope this answered some of your questions such as:

Honestly, there hasn’t yet been a best universal firmware for everyone. For gamers that were more say competitive, M0210 had the best 120hz support has the HDR glitches were minor and correctable for the most part if you wanted top resolution frame rate. For content viewers, the L version update 2 before (can’t remember the name rn) was the best for overall picture but suffered from lower resolution vertical scale in 120hz.

So far new models not always the best, more dimming zones did not really fix blooming much and color banding. u88g is good tv but still suffers black crush. I really wish Hisense are more detailed about their updates. the k0817 did some good things like more color accuracy but i'm noticing more banding on every color which before was just grey.

The reason I wanted to do this was because my TV was switching to the home screen at random times for no reason. Then it would switch to a black screen and then the home screen. I would have to unplug the TV and reset it to be able to continue watching TV. So far installing this MO801 update seems to have stopped the home screen switching problem. Fingers crossed 🤞.

No matter what I do my U8G won't recognize the zip file update on my thumbdrive. Hisense didn't say anything to me about unzipping the update file. I keep getting an error message "can't find OTA upgrade in the USB root directory". What the hell?

I have a U8F, and it doesn't seem like the update process is much different from this one. The last time I attempted a manual update, the TV seemed to go to sleep in the middle of it and I ended up bricking it. Hisense fixed because it was still under warranty at the time, but now it's WAY out of warranty and desperately in need of an update. Watching an hour-long episode of "Halo" on Paramount Plus turned into an hour-and-a-half long ordeal because it kept stuttering and crashing. This was the second Hisense TV I've owned (the previous one was an older HD 1st-gen Google TV) and depending on how this goes, it may be the last.
@qwazyd0gg 4 ай бұрын
Hmmm, the issues you have sound less like software and more like hardware. Maybe a TCON board or main board if it’s a shuddering mess. Are you paying from an internal source? If so, try an external player to take weight off the hardware to see if it gets any better.
@cubdukat 4 ай бұрын
@@qwazyd0gg I have an external Roku unit, and it's incredibly snappy, but it doesn't have Dolby Vision like the TV does. Very few of the major apps are actually usable from within the TV. The worst offenders are Paramount+, Disney+ and Max; they're all stuttery to the point of borderline unusability. A lot of the online forums claim that this firmware update cures that, but given my previous experience, I'm naturally leery of doing it. That being said, if it goes down again, I may have a workaround...

You’d have to replace the entire main board. Honestly super easy to do, but hard to get ahold of. Shows not available via the publically accessible hisense oem parts site.
