Android TV 9.0 Upgrade - Space Required?

by Tronman100

My TV is currently running Android TV 8.0. It's a Hisense 55H8809 (H8F).

When I attempt a software update, it tells me there are no updates available. Hisense has indicated the Android TV 9.0 update is available for this set.

Hisense suggested this may be due to lack of space on my device. I have about 1.7 GB free.

Does anyone who has upgraded remember how big the Android TV 9 download was? Or know how much free space I might need?

Any other ideas on why it might say there are no updates available are welcome too.

Thanks!

Maybe try downloading direct from the website on your PC and put it on USB stick .. then run from the tv via stick on tv USB port

And when you google it, Android TV 9.0 is causing issues on all kinds of TVs and devices. If I could take it back on my Mibox I would...
