    Sony STR-DN1040 - Corrupted GUI

    Hi

    As per title, I bought this STR-DN1040 unit with some GUI issues. please study attached photos. At some point, I saw few Japanese characters here and there. Apparently common issue with STR-DN1050 model too. The sound and video through hdmi ports work just fine. I've done so far:
    - user initialize
    - shipment mode initialize
    - all clear initialize
    - cleaned hdmi board with isopropyl alcohol (it was very dusty)
    Firmware update is only availabe via internet (current firmware is up to date) but according to service manual, unit can be flashed via usb port too.
    Any thoughts lads?

      Sony KDL-46HX850 Can't upgrade/update firmware
      by dkneyle
      Diagnosed this TV as having a failed main board which I've replaced with one from a KDL 55HX850. They are (supposedly) the same board.

      Being 'Smart TV' it requires a firmware reboot when you swap out boards such as T-Con or main board. It starts with a black screen and flashing yellow and green LEDS, indicating it needs that firmware boot. The procedure described all over the web is to put the software into the root directory of a FAT32 formatted USB drive and it should load that up once plugged into USB1 port. But not for me. I can see the LED on the USB chip flash for about...

      Sony Firmware for XBR-70X850B
      by jason123
      Hello

      Help is much appreciated. I have a Sony XBR-70X850B with bad main board. I got a mainboard for it, but as you know I have to update the firmware on this TV for the main board to work.

      I went to the Sony website, and I can't seem to find the Firmware file. Sony is no longer making this available.

      Does any of you have firmware / software files for this TV that I can put on USB for update to make this main board work?

      Much appreciated.

      SONY KDL-65w850c need latest firmware 6.827
      by AlexWhat
      In 2022 SONY did "Termination of TV Software Update" for this model.
      I did find older firmware but it can't be installed over newer one (rolled back)
      Yes, got boot loop during android load so if that will not work then EMMC has to be replaced, I think.
