    Help with Sony firmware KDL-40W5500 v1.752EA

    Unfortunately Sony Have taken all there old TV firmwares down from there website last year. So it isn't available to download. Does someone have the firmware available please? It is used for a whole range of the KDL range of TV's including the following models :
    KDL-22E5300, KDL-22E5310, KDL-32E5500, KDL-32E5510, KDL-32E5520, KDL-32V5500, KDL-32V5610, KDL-32W5500, KDL-32W5710, KDL-32W5720, KDL-32W5730, KDL-32W5740, KDL-37V5500, KDL-37V5610, KDL-37W5500, KDL-37W5710, KDL-37W5720, KDL-37W5730, KDL-37W5740, KDL-40E5500, KDL-40E5510, KDL-40E5520, KDL-40V5500, KDL-40V5610, KDL-40W5500, KDL-40W5710, KDL-40W5720, KDL-40W5730, KDL-40W5740, KDL-40WE5, KDL-46V5500, KDL-46V5610, KDL-46W5500, KDL-46W5710, KDL-46W5720, KDL-46W5730, KDL-46W5740, KDL-46WE5, KDL-46Z5500, KDL-52V5500, KDL-52V5610, KDL-52W5500, KDL-52Z5500
    If you also have the instructions for installing it would also be helpful. I have found a French site with it but I am unsure if it is the the correct firmware for the TV!
    The firmware version is v1.752EA i believe to be around 12MB size as the TV I have is a very early version V1.40EA
    Thanks

      Thanks Lotas. I will now compare it with the French site I downloaded from just to make sure its the same I have just checked and its the same as here:
      https://www.touslesdrivers.com/index...3&v_code=40153
      So I will try updating it very shortly.
      Thanks for spending the time finding it

          It worked fine. For anyone else that wishes to update there TV's. Format the usb drive in either fat or fat32 and insert the memory stick with TV in standby. Bring TV out of standby and go to Software update. It will recognise the file and update your TV to latest version available for these TV's previously listed. Be patient as it takes around 7-8 minutes. Don't remove the flash drive until the TV has switched itself back on and you have an image of TV or HDMI connection. Then as a precaution I also did a factory reset from the users menu option. Hopefully it should resolve any issues you are having.

                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.

                Sony experts? 2nd bricked BAT Board after firmware update KDL-55EX720
                by thesteve
                So I bought another main board from eBay and the same thing happened.

                I got the firmware file from the Sony website. My model was listed and everything matched.

                sony_tvupdate_2011_4027_aaa_auth.zip was the file.

                Extracted to a folder: "sony_dtv0FA10A01A0A1_00000301"
                with file: 00000301_07e8046a.bin inside.

                Loaded it into the root of an otherwise empty USB thumbnail bought from around the same time as the TV. Not too old, not too new.. under 2Gig.

                The file reads perfectly. Lots of "disk activity"...
