Just seen this article,is it safe to assume that my 2017 model 55XE8505 will get Android 9 Pie then?

If you are interested in my findings, you can visit the German thread on the new FW. It will get updated over the next couple of days/weeks as my list on things to test is quite long...

@Kuschelmonschter from the first finding it seems surprisingly that you are quite satisfied with this update :wink:

I do give credit where credit is due. There are however still many unresolved problems. My bug tracker will soon reflect the issues that are still open. Things are currently under investigation. Some more sporadic issues will require time to verify.

 

I am also working on a comprehensive update of my review.

Any hope for a return of the hide info banner feature or feature to switch it off? The random pop up when using any device connected to the ARC port is driving me nuts!

Hi @PyroPath   

 

I disabled the info banner immediately after updating my KD-55XE9305.

That row is nowhere to be found on the 6.7140 on the XG90 :(, hence me asking if it will return.
