LG 65UQ70 horizontal bars jumping

[CapLeaker]

So I bought this LG 65UQ70 today at Walliworld. Put the wall mount on, set it up, worked for 30 mins and then I get these jumping horizontal bars. Let the TV do updates and let it cool down for 5 mins. Worked perfect for 2 mins. As soon the TV is warm I get the jumping vertical bars again.

Keep the other TCL thread in mind. Now I am questioning are all COVID 2022 / 23 TV's bad or what? That's two 65” TV's one from Amazon and this one from Walmart. What are the chances on that?

I guess this one goes back either later today or tomorrow morning, unless someone has a better idea than firmware updates and reset, as this has been done already,

Are you serious? A second busted TV in a row. That's crazy talk. There's no reason to even guess or try to repair lol just go back

[EazyBone]

You should be questioning what you have done to TVs for them to fight back at you this hard.

Damn that's bad luck, I haven't bought a new tv in quite a while, one thing I never do tho, is update if I don't have to if there's a setting to turn off or disable auto updates I choose it. Then after the updates been out a while and I see no bad feedback I'll update. Been burned by bad updates more than once.

At one point I was contemplating on putting 480VAC 3 phase to it!

My driving is better than most and I almost touched this TV with my Bosch hammer.

Update:
This TV went back to Walmart and replaced it with a different brand. I put this new TV up this evening and it works A1!

Anyone wanna guess what TV brand I bought?

[EazyBone]

Samsung

[Diah]

hisense

[CapLeaker]

I also updated it and it still works!

Glad to hear it, 3rd time was the charm, still thinking the tcl had a bad update, from you're description of what happened.

[EazyBone]

Yea hurry up and tell us what happened to that tv

[nomoresonys]

LG, Vizio?

[CapLeaker]

The answer is: S A M S U N G DU6900

Vizio, we usually do not get any here unless I drive 700km round trip. The only Hisense was a display model had none in stock. I had the choice, between ONN, Philips, a pricey LG but a different model number.I surely wasnt to take that same model. That's all there was in a Walmart super centre. The Samsung is still working., picture is good, sounds o.k. so I call it good. I guess we just get chit in our Walmart. Good enough for Canada.
