Updating your Sony TV with Android TV or Google TV<\/strong> is essential to ensure it runs smoothly and securely. While most updates are delivered via OTA (Over The Air) automatically<\/strong>, you can still update your TV manually using a USB drive<\/strong> if you do not have an internet connection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Identify your TV model and download the update<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Before starting, you need to identify your TV model<\/strong>. You can find this information by checking the label on the back of your TV or by going to Settings > About device<\/strong> in the menu. Once you have the model number, visit the official Sony website<\/strong> and look for the support and downloads section<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Download the latest firmware update file<\/strong> for your TV model. The file usually has a .PKG extension<\/strong>. Ensure your USB drive is formatted in FAT32<\/strong> before transferring the file. Place the update file in the root directory<\/strong> of the USB drive to ensure the TV detects it properly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Perform the update process<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
    \n
  1. Turn off your TV<\/strong>\u00a0before inserting the USB drive.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. Insert the USB drive<\/strong>\u00a0into the TV’s USB port.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. Turn on your TV<\/strong>. The update process should start automatically.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  4. Wait up to 30 minutes<\/strong>\u00a0while the update installs. The TV may\u00a0restart multiple times<\/strong>\u00a0during the process.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  5. Once finished, a\u00a0confirmation message<\/strong>\u00a0will appear on the screen, indicating that the update was successful.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
