Android 8.0 Oreo/ 9.0 Pie

Is it OK to expect Android Oreo on 2017 Sony Android TVs?

I'm here in the UK, and I updated to Oreo this morning...

 

Now I have no BBC iPlayer... and it doesnt seem to be available in the app store either. Same for the other UK catchup apps.

 

 

----- sorry panic over... I'd disabled the sony select stuff on the new oreo home screen ... It's all in in there .

 

 


Do you need Youview enabled to get the catchup TV?


not for BBC iPlayer or My5.
youview only required for the other 2.

I know the XD93 wont get Oreo but does anyone know if it is going to get another firmware update? The US version got one in November



Hi @stevenhenry,

 

Yes, your TV will receive soon a firmware update with a number of bug fixes too.

 

Cheers,

I have a KD-65XD7505 and have just updated it to oreo firmware v6.5830. Since I have done this i am no longer able to cast any videos from my Windows 10 Laptop. I get the attached error message. I have tried doing a factory reset and I still have the same problem. I hav checked that the chromecast module is up to date in playstore. On the previous Nougat firmware i could cast the files with no problems. Anyone have any fix for this or can it be looked into and fixed on next update.2019-02-02 00_36_25-C__Users_abun8_Videos_Doctor Who - The Complete Classic 26 Seasons Collection + .png

After upgrading to 8.0 My onscreen keyboard no longer appears when i click into a search or text area

 

Have tried using different keyboard and also stopping and starting keyboard service but no joy!

 

Any help would be appreciated

Hi @abun880007 

 

This is strange as I have exactly the same problem on my laptop connected by Ethernet and WiFi. However on my Desktop PC which is running exactly the same Windows 10 Pro 1809 it works perfectly. Conclusion something on my Laptop is blocking the KD-55XE9305.
