Yesterday morning about 3:00 a.m. ET. I kept getting the following error message on my LG OLED which I bought almost six years ago:
"This app will now restart to free up more memory" The message comes on every 15 seconds and flashes the HDMI 1. It does the same thing with HDMI 2. Because of the frequency of the error messages, it won't even allow me to access the menu without reverting back to that error message.
Several times throughout the day, I tried the OLED again and the same error message would come up. Eventually, the error message would stay on while flashing whatever HDMI input I just activated. Yesterday there was seconds of video from whatever source I was using like DirecTV or 4K player, but that stopped all together. This happened about 3:00 a.m. ET so it was the same time as when I first started experiencing this problem on Tuesday morning.
Anyhow, I just tried the OLED again. I turned on my equipment via universal remote. Everything turned on then the OLED briefly shut off then turned back on. Just like that, no more error message and the OLED played just fine. I tried different inputs and activities from DirecTV, AppleTV, Roku and Oppo 203. Everything worked fine with no error messages on my OLED. I decided to go to my OLED "All settings" and noted the latest software update which was 05.65.03, but have no idea when that update occurred. Also, I noted that my OLED has 11,910 hours on it. Before this morning, I couldn't even access my menu long enough to pull up that information.
My wi-fi network has been kind of wonky lately so I'm wondering if my OLED was in the middle of a software update that didn't take yesterday morning which caused those issues? Or was there an app updating that did the same thing in which it didn't take and caused those issues? Perhaps, that update finally completed this morning and now everything is fine?
Anybody have any theories? Either way, I'm going forward with my plans to buy another OLED and just have this OLED65E6P as a backup display because it's pushing six years of service with about 12,000 hours of use.
