Firmware Update v3.317(PKG3.317EUB) solved what?

[MiCal1967]

1. Channel edititing SLOW MOTION(not quick responding) Not Solved. Especially for Satellite Channels. Very slow on every action and occasionally "throws you out" of Channel Editing Procedure.

2. Renaming-editing--locking-skipping-making Favorite lists in Channel Editing Menu Not Solved (not added).

3. Sorting-Editing does not move all channels downwards as before, but simply REVERSES(SWAPS) channels places.

4. Favorites Lists can Only be created through Guide Screen Action Menu, but I cannot find a way to go straight to Favorite List created or leave one continously active or select at least from Home Screen. There is also NO FAVORITES BUTTON on Remote Control.

5. If I go into the Satellite channels first following start up(or reboot), the channels have a black screen and an antenna issue is reported as the fault. If I go out into Digital and return to Satellite the channels are then fine. Same thing happens the first time I search for Satellite Channels. Search returns No Services Found. If I go out into Digital and then try to rescan for Satellite Channels then the Search responds and finds all channels. Not Solved. Reported also from Davidryan34 here: https://community.sony.gr/t5/televisions/bravia-android-tv-why-is-programme-list-transfer-greyed-out...

Adding new:

6. After reseting(delete) Satellites and of course sat channels, going back to TV without doing a Sat Search gives an error of "No signal detected" for all DVB-T channels. Had to Reboot and signal was OK again. Reproduced same problem twice.

Im a slightly disappointed after last system update .
First and most annoying  thing is picture quality , on v3179 firmware picture was better (it's only my opinion ? picture quality was priority when i bought this tv. )
Still have a problem with no response remote controller after couple second it's working normaly .
Can't downgrade firmware only service that's joke ?!

I don't use normal antena or sattelite only internet tv etc. so im not using recording or pip .

Hope someone from sony reading this and fix that .  Please be focus on picture quality not only functionality .

4. Favorites Lists can Only be created through Guide Screen Action Menu, but I cannot find a way to go straight to Favorite List created or leave one continously active or select at least from Home Screen. There is also NO FAVORITES BUTTON on Remote Control.

Favourites can be added as a category on the Discover popup, and managed from there as well.  Thats how I use favourites anyway.

Also note, that this firmware adds USB HDD recording.  So, tried it, but my 32GB USB device only reports as 29GB, so can't be used as the minimum size allowed by the TV is 32GB.  Has anyone else tried USB HDD recording yet?

HDD recording is working fine for me (a 500GB WD mypassport HD) and several users in Italy. 29GB in under the limit stated...never tried.

Regarding favourites program a simple tip:

• set the EPG guide to use your favourite list
• select a program to view from there
• You'll get a message that your favourite list has been selected
• afterward scanning the programs via ch+/ch- you'll go through only the ones enlisted in your favourite list
• If you enter a channel via the numeric keypad, you exit the favourite list and have to start from step 2.

Regarding HDD recording. That does not work for me. When I point at the red rec button a information show me how to but the cable in the tv, but I have allready done that. I have a 2tb Iomega, I have also tried with a little 4 gb USB stick. Please give me a hint how to do it. Sorry for my bad english....

Thanks rooobb and chrgray for Favorites suggestion.

Favorites is possibly the only solution for my problem in channel editing for the time being.

What possibly happens is what Quinnicus says at:

https://community.sony.gr/t5/televisions/2015-android-tv-bugs-and-issues/td-p/2040020

problem number 20 :

https://community.sony.gr/t5/televisions/2015-android-tv-bugs-and-issues/m-p/2089574#M39396

and that it is unfortunately a European models problem. This means that I could find similar problems in French German Austria etc Communities and not here that server automatically returns my posts because of English language.

After the update switching channels results in a black screen and only audio and a unresponsive tv sometimes resulting in a reboot nevertheless the TV is rendered useless now. Great update and testing Sony!

Wondering how many weeks this will take.... for me.... done with Sony and done with Android TV

[rooobb]

Before surrending please try resetting to factory the tv. It solves most of the issues.

[silverrs8]

Already did without any positive outcome.

Have hat lip sync issues, a info bar that does not want to go away, slow responsiveness of the remote and not to forget home network disruption (which was gone after a TV update).

How can all this be considered ready for release to the consumer?
