weather to update firmware or not ?

by prabhat09

so i am from Nepal and just bought a 49" android tv from a local brand. its nice and all but the UI is slow and looks old and when i checked for updates there is none. so when i searched for the current firmware verson (v8-mt56552-lf1v092), it displayed tcl tv firmware " https://w3bsit3-dns.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=789070 " which is exactly same except last three numbers. 092 - 147. even the UI seems similar and look like they are same just latter one updated version. so should i flash the new firmware or forget about the whole thing ??

Well the bigger question now is how ?? How do you flash ..lol

I don't think installing an update will make the UI faster. The ui is slow because they used a cheap gpu in the TV's hardware. The same is true across many other Android TVs. I like my nvidia shield because it has very smooth UIs.

OMG Android 4.4.3!

I love my Philips even more now (rocking Nougat/7.0 since last week)
