Simulan ko na pag organize ng thread nating mga 32LH70YR owners para sa tips/tricks and advices as well as question sa nga interesado magkaroon nito :)
Well to start off gusto ko rin maipublish dito ang aking personal review :)
First of all im not connected sa LG and kahit anong Multimedia store :)
kaya lahat ng sasabihin ko dito e based sa 6 months na pag hahanap ng bang for the buck LCDTV,honest and personal opinion for my first LCDTV.
Started as an itch dahil medyo naadik sa mga hd movies and parang nabibitin na sa Samsung 2333SW ko na 23 inches LCD Monitor.
So bigla isang araw napadaan sa mall and na love at first sight sa Samsung 32B550, so naka mindset na ako doon na pag naka ipon e un ang bibilhin, then lumabas ung 32LF20FR for 29k, medyo napaisip isip ako dahil laki ng price diffrence sa 32B550 ng samsung e pareho naman silang FULLHD. Then went to the mall again para itest side by side 32LF20FR vs Samsung 32B550, then napansin ko meron pa palang mas mataas na model ung LG, eto na nga yung 32LH70yr, then yun nalang tinest and then nakita ko na gumagana talaga ung TRUMOTION, then the following week ayan price cut to the max na ang LG hehe so nabili ko itong unit ko kay remalsales of sulit.com.ph for 28.5, Free same day delivery and free wall bracket narin :)
so lets get it goin sa review hehe
naka connect nga pala ang 32LH70YR ko sa HTPC Rig ko i assembled mga 3 years ago na ata hehe, medyo old school na kumbaga hehe
well unang una sa HD Downloaded movies naimpress talaga ako dito sa Image quality nya and yung pag handle sa mga fast scenes. and TRUMOTION really works! No problem din sa pag upscale ng mga movies na hindi 720p or 1080p. ung tipong 700mb lang per movie
sa gaming naman impressed din ako dito and wala talaga ako masabi.. lalo na yung mga dark scenes sa left 4 dead and Call of Duty series. and sa need for speed shift superb na superb walang ghosting/input delay or whatsoever
sa USB and bluetooth connectivity di ko pa natry
sa CABLE TV naman okei din ang pag upscale.. wala din problema and
mas natural ang colors kesa sa samsung 32b550
hmm ano pa ba.. hehe tanong nalang guys pag may mga katanungan pa kayo hehe,
btw here are the pics, pasensya na kayo sa table ko hehe inaalam ko palang kung anong table ang gusto ko pagawa hehe siguro soon magkakaroon narin pag may time at inspiration na magpagawa, btw DIY industrial stand sya na galing sa S and R for 6k.parang okay narin naman dba?

LH70 users i have a question, can i connect my PC to this TV even though i don't have any video card installed? i want to enjoy 1080p movies from my PC since it won't fit to a DVD and i don't have external HD
-
yes i think so bro :) kasi meron naman itong PC INput using a standard vga cable (ung blue ang end to end na cable) :)
pero kung wala ka videocard, kakayanin kaya ng system mo? ano CPU mo and ano ang internal graphics chip ng system mo?

My personal review/introduction sa top ng page/First Post :)
-
awesome :) kamusta naman ang farmville? naks! FV in HD!
-
Add mo naman ako sa farmville mo. ;D
So far satisfied ako sa LG 32LH70 ko. I haven't tried attaching my pc... ok na ko sa 21" lcd ko. But tomorrow, i'll attach my psp slim.
I'm saving money to buy a Home Theater System kahit yong basic lang. When I bought the unit at SM, may discount sana yong LG HTS if you buy it together with the unit - P39990 with HTS. Ayaw pumayag na bigyan ako ng 1 week to buy the HTS... yon pala pwede with other appliance store. Pero okay lang, hanap na lang ng mas mura at maliit lang kasi room ko.
Btw, advice naman... what are the things that i should consider in buying a HTS? Yong dvd ba na kasama with the speaker? I really have no idea... di ako techie guy. thanks
-
try z5500 :)
-
Pwede pa neighbor sa farmville ;D
-
happy and satisfied z-5500 user here too bro :)
about sa farmville requests hahah sorry di ako naglalaro nyan hehe
one thing to note though, sa 32LH70YR natin, the best ang GAME profile pag nag su surf or word editing etc. basta sa loob ng windows. sharp na sharp ang mga texts :)

Mga sir!
Ano naman ang feedback niyo with TRUMOTION on highest setting when used with PS3 and XBOX 360 feeding 1080p signals?
May nababasa kasi ako na may blurring or whatever you call it.
Salamat!
-
i have found a thread at AVSForum regarding USB tweaking on playing MKV files. ;D
hi,
i just registered to share some interesting information with you.
You can activate your usb port to play music, photos and movies (mkv´s with 1080p working!) through the service menu. (LH 3000 - 7000, maybe 2000 too)
You can reach the service menu by pressing "OK" on your remote and "OK" on your TV. Password is "0000".
Once you entered the service menu, go to option 3 and change "divx movie playback via usb" to "HD". Change JPEG to "1".
Use the return key on your remote to leave the service menu.
Now you can use your USB port to play Videos, even 1080p mkv files
Greetings

I'm watching Quantum of Solace at 1080p now and yes, may konting blurring around the moving objects sometimes regardless if I set the TruMotion setting to Low or High. Havent tried it with games yet though. I tried watching some 720p game trailers (FFXIII to be exact) and wala naman akong nakitang blurring dun.
Oh and about the service menu, I think the LH70 already supports playing video files via the USB. That unlocking option is done on the other models... i.e. the LF20.

Anyone who would like to share their picture settings for the LH70? ;D ;D

For unit owners, pls measure the height of the glass (pls dont include the plastic border). Pls give in millimeters.
I'm contemplating of replacing my 25" crt for this LG model. My only criteria is that I want to retain the same viewing size in 4:3 mode.
Read from another forum that this is now Php 24,990.00 for cash purchase. Robinson's.
Also read this model's manual and it has a warning for image retention. I thought LCD are immune to image retention, unlike Plasma?

Is it for the LH70YR Scarlet 2.0 or the LF20 (Full HD)?
If this is for the scarlet then the listed price above is the lowest one yet.

I'm contemplating of replacing my 25" crt for this LG model. My only criteria is that I want to retain the same viewing size in 4:3 mode.
When the widescreen CRTs were introduced in the market in the 90s, ganito ang guideline.
If your TV is 21", minimum WS TV should be 28"
If your TV is 25", minimum WS TV should be 32"
If your TV is 29", minimum WS TV should be 36"
Samakatuwid, exacto sa criteria mo. :)
-
try z5500 :)
I would love to have the z5500... but out of the budget pa. >:(
Any modest hts or set-up na di naman masakit sa bulsa... laki gastos pag xmas season? I've a small room lang kaya di ko kailangan yong me malaking speaker/bass.
Btw, Lapit lang kami sa raon at sabi me mga HTS daw dun... but i've no idea kung ano titignan at puro china branded yata dun?
-

Hindi rin ako makakuha ng bundle na HT, ubos na budget for the TV :( *sigh*

Logitech Z550 5.1 speaker will be my next buy for my new toy that's why i did not buy any of their bundle promo HTIB ;D ;D.
For those who have own this LCDTV can you post your settings so that the new user that recently acquired their unit have an idea how to tweak their unit. ;D

yes this is confirmed. Php 24,990.00 lang ang 32LH70 sa robinsons pampanga last friday lang, kasi nagsale sila. Nung Sunday, bumalik ako pero di na binigay for same price, bumalik na sa Php29,990.00.

Sayang din yung matitipid kung 25K, got my scarlet sa Remal Sales kc for 28.5K - at least di me nahassle magpunta sa store, maghanap parking, makipagsisikan at magbuhat ( sour graping... ;D).
Anyway, tested my unit last weekend - here's some observation:
1. TV - connected it to an aerial antenna, reception and PQ was better than expected although mas malinaw pa rin yung PQ sa Sony WEGA na 21".
2. Connected it sa Xenon via component cable - PQ is ordinary as it was only 480i
3. Connected it to another Xenon na progressive - PQ is much better at 480p
4. Connected it to PSP via component - PQ is good at 480p, although the screen is small (miski i-zoom ko ay di na mapuno yung screen). Hindi ba dapat ay automatic na mapuno nya yung screen?
5. Tried playing USB - it cannot recognize mkv files, DIVX is no problem. Files I have is the 700mb na DVD rip, so I assume quality is DVD also at 480p. PQ is ok, depende sa pagkakarip. So hindi ko pa actually nasubukan ang HiDef hangang 480p lang. San kaya pwede makadownload ng 720p or 1080p na AVI test file?
6. Connected it to a Notebook via RGB, PQ is very nice although kailangan ko humanap ng tamang setting kc hindi puno yung screen, sometimes kulang sa gilid pero at 1024 x 768 e puno ang screen may konting kulang lang sa kanan. Sabi sa manual ay depende sa Video Card- guys- do you have the same observation?
I played a BR Rip ng Gladiators- mas malinaw sya compared sa DVD, pero playing it via RGB na 1024 x 768 so hindi pa rin sya HD talaga?
Mga masters -paki enlighten naman kaming mga newbie:
a) is it correct to assume na miski ang source video file mo ay 720p or 1080p, pero i-output mo naman sa laptop na 1024 x 768 e hindi pa rin HD resolution?
b) assuming naman na may upscaling DVD player ako connected via HDMI 1080p, tapos nagplay ako ng ordinary DVD malaki ba ang improvement or PQ will just be the same except naka-HDMI lang ako?
Thanks a lot in advance, sana weekend na uli para makapagexperiment...

Napakadaling mag-park sa Robinsons Starmills, kahit Sale. ;) Tama po, Scarlet nga yung naka-sale at 24,990 dun sa San Fernando, Pampanga.

Dapat i-set mo yung TV as "Extend my desktop to this ... bla-bla" para i-detect nung PC kung ano yung true size capability nung TV. Kung same display siya with your first screen, isusunod lang talaga ng windows yung resolution ng TV dun sa native display ng PC.

I just happened to accidentally dropped by Robinsons Metro East Appliance Center last Nov 27, 2009 (Friday) late afternoon. Did checked their display of LG LCD TVs on sale. Was surprised to see the 32LF20 selling at php22,990.00, while the 32LH70 was selling at php24,990.00. It was a one-day "Black Friday Sale" that time. Stayed there in the store to check on the buyers of these units. Was originally planning for a 32LF20 unit with a budget of php25k. Didn't leave the store until finally decided to get a 32LH70 unit. There are a lot of advantages getting the 32LH70 with just a mere php2k difference. Another buyer had gotten hold of the last unit (32LH70). Asked the LG salesman if I could still get a unit, and with the approval of their manager, they agreed to let me purchase one with a full amount deposit.
I had also availed of the HT554TM home theater system at 50% discount amounting to php9,995.00. As I needed an HTIB with an optical input and with very low-power consumption (80watts) as compared to other AV Receivers.
By Nov 29, 2009 (Sunday) morning, I was able to pick up my sealed unit from the store. It did include a wall-mount bracket for free (worth php990.00). Paid thru BPI Credit Card straight charge without any add-on charges. Gotten also a free Philips Earphones worth php300+ c/o BPI Credit Card/Robinsons Appliance Center promo. Also did get the Jollibee 6-pc. ChickenJoy promo (actually x2) c/o BPI Credit Card. One for the purchase of LCD TV and one for the HTIB (paid for on separate dates).
Didn't have any problem with covered parking (free), not crowded (during buying/pick-up), and was delivered promptly to my parked vehicle. And the place is very close to our place (just within a 10-minute drive).
That one-day Black Friday Sale is a (first time?) once-a-year event of Robinsons (following the US Stores sale event). Too bad for those who have not availed of such. By Nov 28, the price had gone back to php29,990.00 until Nov 30. And by Dec 1, they said that it will go back to php34,990.00.
Will post reviews of the unit in the next few days/weeks, as I do have a high definition 720p/1080p player to play around with. Have not picked up my HTIB yet. Hopefully within this week.

How about sharing your settings? Thanks.

i think for 720p, you need 1366x768 res
1080p, 1920x1080 res
correct me if i'm wrong

How you can enjoy the full BRRIP if your TV can't decode the DTS. I will just use my HTPC for playing MKV files. :)

Hi guys!
This is my first post here. I got the LG 32LH70 last Monday with the HT554TM htib and I have to say I am loving it! For the price and features I believe this unit is well worth it. I will try to post some pics soon once I fix our sala. Hehe.
Yun lang po.
Peace! :)

Hello! I just bought the 32lh70yr a few days ago and been looking for a way to be able to play .mkv.
The ok+ok option does not show the proper menu as suggested, so i looked for a way to find the tv's fw version.
here's what i found:
1)Plug USB Thumb Drive to the USB Port
2) Press Menu
3) Move Cursor to highlight "Option"
4) Press "7" 7 times (instead of FAV 7 times) & wait for awhile
You will get the Expert Menu
and there you can see the fw version, mine is 3.15

I know the tweak is for the 32LF20 and IIRC for you to play MKV files via USB of the 32LH70 is you should have 3.5 FW. For me i will not play MKV files on my unit since i cant enjoy the movie for the reason that the TV can't speaker can't output DTS. ;D ;D
just my 1 cent
-
Personally i think even the normal DIVX/AVI playback of this unit is atrocious...ok, maybe sub-par at best.

guess ur right with this one... if ever we get to play mkv's it would be without sound or we would need sound decoders to give the sound output...

i dont mind playing mkv movies like drama, comedy etc via usb port.

My 32LH70YR can read a 1TB HD but unfortunately can't play MKV files :(.

as what xrampage pointed out even if the MKV files would play there would be no sound because MKV has DTS sound and our tv's cant decode DTS so if we really want MKV files i guess the best option would be to pair it with a WDTV live or an Xtreamer hehehe...
-
WHat about DD? Does it support DD or downconvertion of DD to PCM?
-
I have tried playing DIVX files as usual PQ is not that good and has a sound only at the LCDTV. :)
-
if we play mkv movies using hd players are the output in the lcd really far better than those of dvdrip movies???

You will certainly appreciate your LCD TV more if you have HD sources. The audio and video quality is immensely improved over the standard DVD.

I never listen to salesguys/promodizers (in the above case, you shouldn't, either). I make my own decision from the feedback online and auditioning the device.
I find it hard to believe that the TCL beats the Panny.
-
I'm planning on buying the same model, but i'm really particular on the black level of an lcd tv. How does the black level of this model compare to those of Panny's?
Thanks
I find the black level of 32LH70 deeper black than Panasonic. Check this out and compare it with Panasonic at Sights and Sounds 4th level Shangri-La Plaza.

Great! I'm dead set with this unit now. I hope you can give me a good deal. LG 32LH70, Htib and probably an xtreamer.
By the way, last year I got my 32lx80 from sights and sounds and it was a good experience (and I got a really good deal also) and i'm sure my next purchase will be as well.

So, LH70 fan boys... What should we use to clean the TV's frame? It seems that the adhesive of the stickers on it had stayed on the frame and eventually, caught some dirt... and a few smudges here and there.
A plain microfiber towel would do?

Hi everyone,
I'm set to buy an LG 32LH70YR but the best deal I've got so far, within Alabang area, is actually pretty much the standard offer of 30K including the wall-mount bracket.
This thing is selling like crazy and most appliance centers in Festival Mall and Alabang Town Center ran out of stock already! Some stores don't include the wall bracket for the 30K cash price, but some do... but basically the best they could offer is 30K cash.
Any tips where I can get better bargain?
Thanks.
-
I'm now a fan of the LG 32LH70YR. In fact I'm getting one this weekend.
This is too tempting to pass up... for 30K it's not only among the cheapest Full HD 32" LCDs around, but also probably the only one at this price point with USB-direct playback of DivX videos plus Bluetooth, and not to mention it's currently the best-looking TV that 30K can buy. :)
Wala na sigurong mas susulit pa dito sa ngayon.
One thing I've read about, but no chance to confirm... apparently its speaker system was tweaked by Mark Levinson (the legendary man behind numerous high-end audiophile equipment). Kamusta ba ang speakers nito, talaga bang tunog tweaked by Levinson? Hehehe.

Guys planning to buy LG 32LH70YR today... Alam nyo ba kung san maganda bumili ngaun yung pinakamagandang package sa SM North Edsa... And mga magkano ba ngaun to if Cash or Credit card.... Thanks po para marami ako ma canvassan at hinde ako paikot ikot... Thanks po

It depend on the buyer how he/she huggle for the price.

does anyone has a chance to compare it with Panasonic TX-L32S10 or X10? before i was contemplating on pana but now seems like this baby is more bang for the buck though pricier than X10.

AFAIK, Western does not carry LG.

^^ I asked Western. It's confirmed, they don't carry LG.

Just picked up an LG 32LH70YR last night. I'm so happy with it... well worth the 29K. I even got a free bucket of Chickenjoy c/o BPI Credit Card's promo. :)

Alabang malls like all others do not have "great" prices. Whats worse are the salesman who tell you that LCD's do not show that brilliant PQ at your home with standard sky cable. And to top it off they will rarely give you a straight answer when asked about Plasma PQ Vs. LCD when viewing standard sky cable.
Regarding price did you ask victor at sights n sounds if they have your unit in stock and at what price including the (free) wall mount. They deliver and install for free as well ( Buying from malls are rarely the best deals around).

calling owners of LG 32LH70yr,
tanong ko lang mga sirs, yung start button sa harapan na may ilaw,
annoying ba ito lalo na kung movie viewing at off yung room lights?
This model is one of my choices, may reservation lang ako tungkol
sa ilaw ng start button.
Query lang mga sirs.

It can be turned off in the "Options" menu. Your choice.

Thanks to everyone who gave tips either here or by PM.
I finally bought one last night. Gadgets in Style (Festival Mall) sold it to me for only 29K including the wall-mount bracket. Nagamit ko yung BPI card ko, so apart from the good price, I also got a free bucket of Chickenjoy c/o BPI promo, LOL.
34K lang sa kanila kapag 12 months installment, while it's 39K sa mga ibang stores sa mall dito.
Also, out of all the appliance stores in Alabang, sila lang ang may stock. I asked Ansons, Abenson/Avant, Automatic Centre... lahat sila sa January pa magkakaroon daw.
Overall, not bad for a mall purchase, no?
-
Seriously contemplating on getting me one this next week. Any comment on the unit's PQ when connected to a PS3? How does it compare with other LCD TV that fall in the same specs?
-

Sabi nung isang sales rep sa western recto may issue daw yung lg service center kaya they're not carrying this particular brand.

For those planning on getting the 32" model, this picture is misleading as the unit is no where that thin. :) I dont know if the 42" version is what is on the picture.

It seems that this baby has been quite a hot seller, with most stores having no stocks left. Even the display units were chomped up by eager customers.

I have tried playing DIVX files as usual PQ is not that good and has a sound only at the LCDTV. :)
You can pipe the sound out to your amplifier via the RCA out of the TV. That's what I do. :)

hi guys! i bought mine 2 weeks ago and have encountered 2 problems so far:
1. display flickers and then turns blank after you turn on the set (power light turns white) and no longer responds to remote control inputs (i.e. can't change inputs or access menu). this happens when i turn it off at the AV2 input after playing on the ps2. this has happened 3 or 4 times already but not sure exactly what causes it. the only way to get out of this is to immediately press input and change input to TV just before it flickers. but when you turn it off again from AV2, the problem reoccurs. the only fix i've found so far is to switch to demo mode and then back to home use.
2. h and v sharpness settings don't work in expert1/2. i only noticed this today and would appreciate if anyone can confirm: set h and v sharpness to 95 so that the picture is obviously sharpened, then change to a different mode and then back to expert. in my case, the settings are correctly saved as 95, but the picture look soft. the only way for the sharpness to take effect is to adjust it again (either up or down).
again, i'd appreciate if anyone can confirm any of these problems as i am considering taking this back (sm appliance center north edsa). but if it turns out to be a common problem with some of you then i would probably just stop using the av2 connection and the expert1/2 mode. hassle eh:] btw, my firmware is 3.15.
thanks in advance!

thanks in advance!
My firmware is also version 3.15.
Yes, I have encountered the same issue in your item#1. But in my case, my input is set to HDMI1. As long as there is a signal source on HDMI1, there should be no problem in using the TV remote.
What I noticed is when the source to HDMI1 is either not powered on or was powered off, the TV screen would flicker to try to sense for a signal on the input (in my case HDMI1). If no signal is present, it seemed that the TV would turn its screen off ( I think that the backlight would turn off). Since the circular power switch did not turn RED yet, it meant that the TV is not powered off yet. So pressing anything on the TV remote would not produce any response on the screen except for the power off button (on the remote). Even pressing the "Input" on the TV remote would not show anything also. Havent tried immediately pressing left or right arrow after pressing Input. I believe pressing the "Input" repeatedly doesnt cycle through the various Video Input sources.
At times I would try to catch switching to the USB Menu (w/ a USB flash drive attached) before the screen would turn off. Sometimes successful, sometimes not. So I would turn off the TV (using the TV remote) and turn it on again.
I don't know if this is related to any power saving measures applied to this TV set. Let me know if you do get any concrete answer from LG Phils. For the meantime, the only solution is to not power off the source first.
I believe the demo mode might not be expecting any signal from any of its input sources. It might be the reason why the screen does not turn off.
The above are just my analysis of the experiences encountered. I hope that LG would update their firmware to resolve this annoying issue.
-
Hi guys!
I have a similar issue with my scarlet, problem is exactly as you have described and observed. I experienced this a week after bought the unit. Called Remal sales and I was referred to an LG technician. The technician explained to me that I might have pressed the "eco" button (green buton on the remote) which cycles it to the different modes. I explained that I was not using it and gave me instructions on what to do.
I thought that it may be the problem since when I got the display back it was in maximum savings mode. I switched it "off" but if there is no signal from the source video ( either HDMI or component) the screen flickers off. However, normally there should be a moving display that says that there's no input but this is not the case. I mentioned this to the technician and since the screen is blank it appears that it's not even responding to the remote. You have to switch it on and off again.
Since its within 7 days, Remal promptly changed the unit. So far with the new unit I have not encountered it or frankly, I did not try to simulate it again ( powering the TV on with the input in component or HDMI), I just leave it in TV tuner mode when powering off.
I hope other scarlet users try to simulate this do determine if its an issue with individual units or a common problem. Makes me think "WHY" LG suddenly drop the prices down drastically ( from its original selling price).
As you guys mentioned, problem might be with the firmware. Appreciate if you can advise how to check the firmware version. Maybe we need to chase LG to upgrade our firmware if this is the case.
In the meantime, lets enjoy our scarlet this coming holidays. Cheers!!!
-
Got this too, i think this is more of a HDCP handshake issue.
After a a month or so however and a PS3 resetting (holding the powerbutton for 10 seconds and all HDMI settings reset), the problem does not persist anymore.
-
Sir VX2, ano yung HDCP (pardon my ignorance)? Saka yung sabi mo ni-reset ay yun LG TV mismo?
-
Not sure but it's a DRM security ek ek, High Definition Copyright etc., ata, i'm just pulling this out of the air though. Basta hassle yun. :P
I meant resetting the PS3. I think the PS3 carried the old video settings the older LCDTV.

My unit was manufactured in April 2009 (aarggghhh.. i forgot to check! I would've requested them to change it with a newer unit, which arrived the day I bought mine). It has FW 3.0.9. I haven't experienced this, but I've only tried turning off the TV when in RGB-PC, HDMI3, TV, and AV1.
2. h and v sharpness settings don't work in expert1/2. i only noticed this today and would appreciate if anyone can confirm: set h and v sharpness to 95 so that the picture is obviously sharpened, then change to a different mode and then back to expert. in my case, the settings are correctly saved as 95, but the picture look soft. the only way for the sharpness to take effect is to adjust it again (either up or down).
I'll test this later.

thanks Ppoooh, Lawin and vx2! i'm a bit relieved that i'm not alone with this problem as i had a hard time finding info on it from the internet. from the sound of it, it looks like it may be common after all.
i had experimented last night on how to reproduce the problem as it doesn't always happen, but couldn't really identify a particular sequence that causes it. i have not experienced this with the hdmi input (to which i have the ht554 connected), only with the av2 input connected to a ps2.
so that still leaves me with the 2nd problem with the expert1/2 sharpness settings... i found someone else with a similar problem but on a different lg model:
http://www.hifivision.com/television/7040-facing-problem-my-lg-lh90-attn-prospective-buyers.html
the user pretty much describes exactly what i am encountering, except mine is with the sharpness setting. if anyone of you can just confirm this (following the steps i described), i would be very thankful. i just want to know whether this is a firmware issue or if there is really something wrong with my unit and i should have it checked/replaced. i bought mine for 30k and as they say, money doesn't grow on trees:]
to vx2, like lawin i'm curious about the HDCP handshake you mentioned.
-
Since I am not going to connect this TV to cable, I will leave my input setting to HDMI1. As I am always using the WDTV HD Media Player on this TV.
I suppose in Lawin's case, you are always connected to cable. Therefore the screen doesn't shutdown anymore when your input defaulted to cable. What would happen if you accidentally changed to other inputs like HDMI and your HDMI connected device powers off. You would then be back to a blank screen and unresponsive remote.
Did a change of the TV unit actually resolved the issue that you have experienced? Will have to try this scenario on other units displayed at the appliance store where I bought this unit from.
Thanks for any advise.
-
1. from reading your experiences, i have a hunch the problem occurs when you turn off the source and then turn off the tv immediately without it displaying "no input" first. i'll try to confirm this later.

There's a sticker at the back that says so. In fact, all the LG LCD TV's I've seen displayed in SM Pamp. and Robinsons Starmills have such stickers.

fan boy here ;D
just got mine at remal sales. 28.5K, free wall bracket and free delivery.
can you guys share your settings, for TV viewing and media :D
-
Hi icarusf3ll, lawin & vx2,
May I know what are your "Picture Mode" settings when the said issue occurred. And which of the inputs did you encounter them in. Do note that a different "Picture Mode" can be assigned for each input.
I just need to get your confirmation on the bug/annoyance that we have discovered. This is our finding, after several hours of testing at home and at the appliance store (w/ LG salesman). I had brought my own TV unit back to the store. Only to bring it back home, since all units are likely to exhibit the same issue. This should save you the trouble/hassle of bringing your units back for replacement.
Please advise.
-
hi ppoooh, mine was in standard (user) and expert1 when it occurred. i turned it off with the input still in av2.
yes, it's really a hassle having to bring it back to the store as it's a minor gripe, all in all i'm pretty happy with it... were any of you guys able to verify the sharpness setting issue with expert1/2? again, just set the v and h sharpness to a very high value like 95, switch to a different picture mode and then back to expert1/2 and see if the picture becomes soft. if you encounter this then i will assume it's a firmware bug and just learn to live with it:]
-
Seriously and sorry to say but I cannot fully understand what you guys are trying to explain regarding the bug/issue regarding our precious 32LH70yr. Can you please try to explain it in more detail and to the level that everyone (Newbie/Amateur/Expert) can easily understand.
Thank You Very Much ^__^

Last night, I tried to adjust H and V Sharpness, but I couldn't discern any difference. Perhaps it's because I did it while on TV input (continuously changing screens). Perhaps it's my eyesight, or both.
This morning, I did it while the news was showing updates with some text, and I managed to detect the sharpness indeed going up. And you're right, once you go out of Expert mode and go back, the sharpness resets even though it retained the settings. Once you touch the settings, though, it jumps right back to where it should be (95, 100, or whatever the setting was when you first adjusted it).
Re: Manufacturing Date--

I wasn't able to replicate the issue on Standard and Expert1 picture mode settings on HDMI1. What I have encountered is on Natural and Sports picture mode settings on HDMI1. I have encountered this on a new unit brought out by the LG salesman.
Might be different picture modes on different inputs. Can you try changing to other pictures modes on AV2 whether no such issue would occur?

i'll try out other modes later when i get home. can you list the exact steps you did to replicate it? like, did you turn off the source or the tv first? i'd been more careful and now wait for the no input message before turning the tv off so i haven't encountered the problem since.

great! thank you so much for taking the time to try it out. it's pretty lame that they boast of the expert control feature and yet it doesn't even work properly. last night, i found a variation of the bug.. i copied the settings from this thread by a certain typhoon859 from the avs forum:
http://www.highdefjunkies.com/showthread.php?s=50a603999897844c11b5909fd037314e&t=1819&page=28
the settings were a little too green for my taste so i adjusted the red, green and blue brightness settings to be about the same at around 15. at this point, the PQ was great and appeared more natural to me. but when i tried to adjust the brightness either up or down the picture turned dark as if it reverted to the default settings. the only way for the settings to take effect was to go back to the expert control and adjust any of the rgb contrast settings. it's not as annoying as the h/v sharpness bug as that gets lost by changing inputs or turning off the tv.
so it looks like lg didn't have time to qa this feature all too well. it'd be nice if they can give us a firmware update for this. would it help to have our unit registered at ph.lgservice.com/ site?

What I did to make sure that I started with a clean slate, was to do an "Intial Reset" as if it just came out of the box. I believe this is in the "Options" menu. Good thing is that I haven't connected to cable service yet, thus no channel programming was previously done. As this procedure will erase all of those programming.
Set to "Home Use" mode, and everything should be in default for a usual customer. In this case the picture mode setting will all be defaulted to "Vivid" for all inputs (I suppose). Then and only then, change the picture mode setting, and nothing else. Do not adjust the individual parameters like brightness, contrast, etc. I don't know if changing these on the default picture mode setting has any bearing on the issue. I did try on the various picture modes to see which ones would result in the said issue. This is what I did at the appliance store. Did encounter the said issue on "Natural" and "Sports" picture modes.
At home, I have only tested on "Natural" picture mode setting as this is the one I am currently using. As I am not aware that this might be causing the said issue at that time. Haven't tried on the other picture modes yet as my unit is still in the box which I brought to the store yesterday evening. I will be setting up my TV right after this posting.
So the next procedure is with both the source/player (I have tried both WDTV HD Media Player and an LG HT554TM HTIB) connected to the HDMI1 input and the LCD TV turned on. Power off the source/player first. The TV would then show HDMI1 input message at the upper right hand corner. Blinking a few times and then off for a brief moment. And then another set of blinking HDMI1 message the 2nd time around, then totally off. There will be no "No Signal" message appearing on the screen. And this is the symptom of the issue that I had. Any presses from the remote would not show up anything on the screen, except for the "Power Off/On" button.
At this stage, if you power off the TV and power it on again (w/o powering on your source/player), the HDMI1 message will do the blinking sequence twice as described above, again. And the remote would appear not to function as well. So the only way to recover from this is to power on your source/player either before powering on the TV or at this stage (after the TV had been powered on), the TV screen will then show up. And you can now see the responses from your remote presses.
Whenever you encounter this 2 sequences of blinking of the input source message, the "no Signal" message will not appear anymore. Thus this is the annoying issue that I (or we) have been encountering. I suppose this might be the same as yours.
Do note that I have version 3.15 firmware. Might be the same issue as yours if you do have the same version.
The only time I didn't encounter the above annoying issue is when I selected other picture modes, other than "Normal" and "Sports". In those other cases, the HDMI1 input message will only blink for 1 set of sequence. And then the "No Signal" message would appear. The normal case is just 1 set/sequence of blinking.
Do let me know what you will find out. I believe raising this issue to LG for firmware update would come in later, after we do our confirmations.
For others who would be able to do this procedure, please provide us with your findings as well.
While this issue have not been resolved yet, it is always better to power off your TV first before powering off any attached devices/players to the inputs. Hope that this helps for all owners.
And by the way, other than this annoyance, I do still love the experience of watching HD on this TV. And I still prefer watching on this 32" model than on the same 42" model. Have tried watching using the same source 1080p movie and the same HD player in both cases. I couldn't see the picture quality on the 42" model (at 8ft viewing distance) to be as sharp as that on this 32" unit (at 5ft viewing distance).

My unit only exhibited the blinking problem for a month or so. After which, like a week or two ago, nada. Hell if I know why. ;D

the settings were a little too green for my taste so i adjusted the red, green and blue brightness settings to be about the same at around 15. at this point, the PQ was great and appeared more natural to me. but when i tried to adjust the brightness either up or down the picture turned dark as if it reverted to the default settings. the only way for the settings to take effect was to go back to the expert control and adjust any of the rgb contrast settings. it's not as annoying as the h/v sharpness bug as that gets lost by changing inputs or turning off the tv.
so it looks like lg didn't have time to qa this feature all too well. it'd be nice if they can give us a firmware update for this. would it help to have our unit registered at ph.lgservice.com/ site?
I just tried this and I am impressed, the colors look nice. However, when I try to switch to another Picture setting and then go back to expert 1, it becomes all washed out. I have to adjust any "brightness" again for the black levels to come back. Is that what you're saying?
-

With FW version 3.15, I have already tried looking into the Service Menu. There is no Tool Option 3 thou. It might be applicable to European models only. Or a different FW version.
Although I already forgot how to get into the said menu again.

hi ppoooh, i followed your instructions on the hdmi input and confirmed the same behavior (my source is an ht554). the problem occurred with the natural and sports mode, but not on expert1 (which is my default). note that i did not do an initial reset since i've already programmed the channels. i guess the reason i never encountered this before is because i usually power on both the player and the tv at the same time. it seems this is a general issue with all of the inputs as i first ran into this on the av input.
at this point, do you think we should collectively demand a new unit or some kind of firmware update?

yes, but it's a bit different with me. in my case, changing to a different picture mode did not cause the black level adjustments to get lost at all, only the v/h sharpness settings were lost (lgfan encountered this as well and he has fw 3.0.9). the black level adjustments were lost when i adjusted the main "brightness" (not the ones under expert control) and came back only when i adjusted any of the rgb contrast/brightness settings. there seems to be some variation with the behavior but at least confirms that the expert mode is faulty.
But have you thought about testing if the Tool Option 3 would appear (without changing it and voiding the warranty, of course)? :D
like what ppoooh said, there is no tool option 3 in the service menu (accessed by pressing menu on both the remote and the unit for 5 sec).

In this case, replacing our units with another same 32LH70YR model will not solve the said issue. Unless there is another model that is better than what we own now. For 32", I believe this is currently the top of the line model.
The next step should be to contact LG Service Desk and request for a bug fix. This is most likely solvable with a firmware update. I have already asked the LG Salesman from the store to raise this issue on their next meeting at LG Phils. In parallel, we should be pro-active as well by requesting for a bug fix thru the right channels. LG Phils -> LG Indonesia (I guess, since this unit was manufactured in Indonesia), or LG Singapore (maybe handling Asia-Pacific). Let me know if you could find the right communication channels in LG.
I have also seen some LG Owners forum attending to owners' concerns. But then it seems like this is for Europe. Below is the link:

Strange indeed. I have the 42 inch version btw. With 1 year warranty behind our backs i'm not worried, in fact i have some intermittent heavy clouding after long periods of watching and haven't contacted service yet since it's a really busy season.

I contacted the LG Tech who initially called me regarding my display problem (flickering off). He said he can arrange for a LG tech to check my unit which I declined at that time since my unit was recently replaced.
I mentioned to him that I read in the internet that there are other users with same problem. At first he told me it could just be somebody from the "competition" and not to believe it. I referred to him the pinoydvd forums and the concerns came from other users who bought the scarlet - he came back by saying he have sold some 200 units but only "3" have this issue. I then asked if its a firmware or hardware problem, to which he said that he is a "salesman" and not in technical thus he referred me to the LG Help Desk.
I think the issue is common and not from only "3" units as he claimed. There might be other users who have not reported this to LG's help desk. I believed LG is aware of the "bug" and I hope it's firmware and not hardware. I think individually or collectively we should call LG regarding this concern. Otherwise, the 1 year warranty might lapse without LG fixing the issue. At least naireport na sa kanila and kung marami nagcomplain ma-pressure sila to come-up with a fix.

I have called up LG Phils Customer Service Desk this morning and requested for a return call by their Tech Support on the issue/bug that I would like to raise.
A while ago, I got a return call from Mr. Joel Canoy, Tech Support. As per his request, I have to send him a picture of my TV setup. I have also informed him that there are other owners experiencing the same. I will be giving him the link to this forum thru his email address. As per his request, other owners with the same issue, pls. do call him up directly also.
Contact details as follows:

I also called Joel Canoy and he logged my call. He is requesting that other owners experiencing said issue to call him DIRECTLY as he is compiling all related calls. He needs at least "5" to build up the case and hopefully facilitate LG's action. He will try to simulate the problem as well.

thanks lawin and ppoooh, i'll call him on monday. it would be a good idea to post any updates here so our actions can be coordinated somewhat. i'm more inclined to think this is a common issue on all of their units so hopefully we can find others (like vx2 and lgfan) and get them to report to Mr. Canoy as well.
i'll take pics of my setup tomorrow so i can send them to him. maybe one of us can post a video on youtube or something so that other 32lh70yr users out there wondering what the problem is can understand immediately.

hi jcads, you can try following ppoooh's instructions from his post yesterday (12/18). but basically, you connect the hdmi input to a source (i used an ht554 dvd player), turn both the tv and the source on. then change the picture mode to either natural or sports and then turn off the source. the tv will display a "no input" message at the upper right-hand corner of the screen which fades out after a few seconds. at this point, turn the tv off and then back on without turning on the source. what has happened to us is that the "no input" message will again appear, fade out and then the screen will blink/flicker for a second and turn blank. after this, you will not be able to change inputs or access the menu via the remote, only the power on/off will work. for some reason it works fine on other picture modes and this to me indicates a glitch with the programming.

haha, funny his initial reaction was to brush it off as bad press from "competition":] i guess the reason why only 3 of the 200 units reported the issue is that you would normally turn both the source and the tv at around the same time. like i said, i encountered the problem with the av input as i had turned it off after playing on the ps2 the previous day and wanted to switch it to cable after i turned it on. but i was able to replicate it on the first try with the hdmi input following ppoooh's instructions.

The way this is described, I don't see it as a glitch. The TV automatically goes into Standby Mode since it is not receiving a signal. It is not switched completely off. The Power On/Off button takes it out of Standby Mode. The solution seems to be to change inputs before the TV goes into Standby. If you allow more time before it does so, then you can change from AV1 to AV2 or whatever. Change the Sleep Timer settings to 10 min instead of the default "0", so that there is enough time to switch sources.

Is your Intelligent Sensor mode on? Note that according to the Manual, Intelligent Sensor changes contrast, brightness, sharpness, color, and tint automatically. This may be what is doing the resetting.

Isn't it that Sleep Timer value of "0" would usually mean Sleep Timer had been turned off? Maybe the guys could try this suggestion if it has any bearing on the issue.
But then it doesn't really happen on other Picture Modes. So why is it such?
The usual message of "No Signal" should appear regardless. Do note that the blinking HDMI1 input message wouldn't even allow us to switch to other inputs.
By the way, my ECO mode is always turned off. As it does conflict with the IR remote of my WDTV HD Media Player.
-

Yes, Sleep timer being set to "0" means it will not turn off by itself.
AFAIK, the screen will continuously display "No Signal" for 15 minutes and then the TV turns itself off.
The manual says:
TV will be automatically turned off, in case of no signal for 15 minutes.

Would you have still bought this tv if you had known these issues beforehand?

Good question! Honestly, I don't know, since it's my first LCD TV and the budget is tight precisely because it's my first -- I don't wanna splurge on my very first ever unit.
When I've gotten much experience with LCD TV's and the technology gets more mature and more reliable, that's the time I'll be spending a lot.
In other words, "mahirap ang buhay" (cost of living is high). Hahahaha.

I have just tried this on both AV2 (Wii) and HDMI3 (Xtreamer) and no, the TV is not "hanging," it just continues to flash the No Signal "screen saver".

Would you have still bought this tv if you had known these issues beforehand?
The current issues encountered is just an annoyance. It doesn't impair any of your viewing experience on this LCD TV specially on HD sources. Altho I would still like to have these issues resolved by LG (most likely thru Firmware update).
At the price point that I bought this, and of the many features available on this model, I believe that this has the most complete features among the high end 32" LCD TVs of other brands at this time.
I have bought this at php25k with 1920x1080 reso, 120Hz TruMotion (Off/Low/High), 2.4ms fast panel, 80k:1 contrast ratio, IPS hard panel, matte screen, 1080p/24 support, slim profile (as compared to other 32" models), divx playback on usb, various/detailed picture quality adjustments (including WCG), 2-way/4 speaker system (w/ tweeters), Clear Voice II (w/c I really like), smooth red color back panel (as compared to other dull black back panel), beautiful/colorful GUI (as compared to other brands), 3HDMI inputs, nice mirror finish base, Energy Saving modes (including screen off capable), and others. who else wouldn't want to buy this unit? The Demo Mode is also nice to be accesible for the end-user (for showing-off).
What it lacks include PIP (which I don't need at this size), LAN connectivity (which I can live w/o), and built-in HD player (w/c is better handled by an external HD player).
If you know of any, pls. let me know of another brand/model that can compete with this.
Do note that I was contemplating on a Panasonic 32S10 LCD TV which is selling at php35k before I saw this. Although I feel the said TV enclosure is a bit outdated. Php10k savings is the deal breaker for me. As I was able to buy an LG HTIB at php10k (@50% off) which I really need.

I have bought this at php25k

Pls. refer to page 2 of this thread. I have bought this on a Black Friday Sale (Nov 27) at Robinsons Appliance Center. Sad to say that this is just a one-day in-a-year event. Actually, the first time that they have done this. Better luck next year. Or unless they are already on a phase out sale sometime next year, maybe.....

yes, now that you mention it, it does seem like the tv has gone to standby mode, but the problem is i had just turned it on:] and like what ppoooh said, what's odd is that it doesn't happen in other picture modes. lgfan wasn't able to reproduce this but then he has a different firmware (3.0.9), so it may be for 3.15 only.
Is your Intelligent Sensor mode on? Note that according to the Manual, Intelligent Sensor changes contrast, brightness, sharpness, color, and tint automatically. This may be what is doing the resetting.
no, i have it off. this happened while i was on expert1/2 mode and has been confirmed by 2 others (lgfan and vx2).
Would you have still bought this tv if you had known these issues beforehand?
i probably would've waited for them to fix it first but again it's a minor annoyance. i had been lusting over this unit since i first saw it 4-5 months ago so it was hard to pass up the bargain.
I couldn't reproduce the problems above. Maybe I'm missing something here?
F/W version is 3.15, manufacture date is October.
hmm, can you try the more detailed instructions from ppoooh's 12/18 post? my manufacture date is august 2009 so i'm not sure if that's a factor as well (but then that would mean this is a hardware issue).
after reporting to lg, am i right to assume these 2 possible outcomes:
1. lg is unable to duplicate it and assumes it as a hardware issue -> replacement of unit.
2. lg is able to duplicate it and identifies it as a firmware issue -> update of firmware.
and ppoooh's right, even though it's nothing major we should still insist that they resolve it. that way, we can recommend it with no reservations:]

Same here, I've also been lusting at Scarlet TV's ever since I first saw them on display at the malls. Even when I was eyeing another (non-Scarlet, 32LF20FR), my eyes would still wander over at the Scarlets on display. The store salesmen were amused when I told my wife that we could just stare at the Scarlet TV for hours and still feel a sense of relaxation and satisfaction (and saving on electricity :D).

Mine was bought at the start of October. As I said, it did exhibit the problem, however, 2 months later, it suddenly stopped flickering and was just back to normal.
I still have that annoying Expert1,2 change bug though.

Wala na bang ibang way talaga na ma-play ang R1 DVDs kaya?
Kung wala na, ibebenta ko na lang ung LOTR trilogy, 28 days later, x-files fight the future, etc na R1 discs ko! :)

My HT554TM by default is on Region 3. If you have DVDs with other Region Code like Region 1, it is better to set the Region Code to "All Region" instead. The ff is the procedure:
1. Power On your HTIB
2. Push Eject button to open the tray
3. Press "0" on your HTIB remote 4 times (I think) until the Region Code setting will show up on your TV screen.
4. It will display something like this: (I'm sorry if this is not the exact message, am just trying to recall from memory)
new Region Code = ____
current Region Code = 3
5. Press another "0" on your remote (0 = All Region setting) to set the new Region Code
6. Press "Enter" key on the remote (the center of the directional keys)
7. Power off your HTIB (just to be sure)
8. Power On again if you want to test your Region 1 DVDs. It should be working now.
Don't know but this might work with other new LG HTIB models.

Just came back from the appliance store today. The 32LH70YR units on display are with manufacture dates April 2009 and June 2009. Wasn't able to test on the June 2009 unit as it was on the store front.
As for the 2 units of April 2009, I wasn't able to check the FW versions as I have forgotten the procedure. I have tried simulating our issue #1 on these units. It doesn't seem to occur on these units with April 2009 manufacture dates as well. Seems like our issue is confirmed to be a production batch problem after all. Might be the reason why Arnel Enero's manufacture date October 2009 (even with FW 3.15) does not exhibit the said issue.
So I have to ask LG Phils to test their production batches with manufacture date August 2009 with FW 3.15 instead.

Have others with a different manufacture date/firmware version encounter this as well? TIA.

Hinala ko tuloy meron lang akong maling ginagawa sa procedures kaya hindi ma-reproduce. Pero inulit ko na, ganun pa rin, gumagana.
Since yours is manufacture date October 2009 altho with the same Firmware version 3.15 (just like ours), this makes me conclude that it might be a production batch problem related to hardware instead. Might be the reason why you didn't encounter our 2 issues.
From the symptoms encountered, my earlier anaylsis would point this to a firmware problem. But then since firmware version 3.15 of your unit (at different manufacture date) didn't encounter the said issues, this makes me think of hardware problem instead.
This is why your findings is very important for us to pinpoint the cause of these issues. Many thanks for your involvement in this investigation. We do really appreciate your effort on this.

mine has mfg date of september 2009. bought it sumtym last week. wala naman ako napapansin na glitch o anu man. i did notice though, after setting it to the typhoon setting, then you change the brightness, bigla sya dumidilim. i just change it to a different setting and go back to expert1 and ok naman na. no big deal. i love it :D
Hi boddah,
I would really like to know whether manufacture date September 2009 is also affected with the said 2 issues. By the way, do you have the Firmware Version of your unit? The procedure had been posted on page #5 of this thread. Pls. advise.
On the "typhoon" setting, do you meant this as a joke? (hehehe) As there is no such Picture Mode setting on our units.

My HT554TM by default is on Region 3. If you have DVDs with other Region Code like Region 1, it is better to set the Region Code to "All Region" instead. The ff is the procedure:
1. Power On your HTIB
2. Push Eject button to open the tray
3. Press "0" on your HTIB remote 4 times (I think) until the Region Code setting will show up on your TV screen.
4. It will display something like this: (I'm sorry if this is not the exact message, am just trying to recall from memory)
new Region Code = ____
current Region Code = 3
5. Press another "0" on your remote (0 = All Region setting) to set the new Region Code
6. Press "Enter" key on the remote (the center of the directional keys)
7. Power off your HTIB (just to be sure)
8. Power On again if you want to test your Region 1 DVDs. It should be working now.
Don't know but this might work with other new LG HTIB models.
I am also using the same model that you have. Ngayon ko lang nalaman yang alternate way na pang unlock to make it region free.
Mine kasi, I used the old code from my LG player. Nag work naman yung code sa HT ko.

Sorry but can't answer your question as I don't have the LF20 model. I believe there are other threads related to LF20. The closest better model is the LH50 but they don't come in at 32". Still I do prefer the LH70 (but preferably w/o those issues that we encountered).

based from previous post:
Insert a Flash Disk on the USB port then hit the Menu Button on the remote. On the Menu selection screen highlight the OPTION menu then press the number "7" on the remote seven times.

i was able to talk to joel canoy this morning and he says they will have to report the issue to lg in korea and get back to me. he says there are already 3 of us (i assume lawin and ppoooh) who've reported the issue and he would like to have at least 5.
i believe iammaki also has a fw3.15/august09 unit so if he can just confirm the first issue and report to mr. canoy it would help further our cause. i would pretty much be content with a firmware update if it is possible, as i've become more attached to this one day after day:]
seriously, i hope they give us an answer soon. it sucks to have a faulty (albeit sexy) piece of newly acquired appliance.

issue 1 does not occur on my unit. Test it with tv on and player via hdmi1 on, turned of player first and encountered no signal. But controls on my remote still works. I pressed the input button to just select TV to get out of hdm1 input. Tested it again but this time after turning player off, I turned tv off. Blinking of screen occurs but I can still use the buttons of my remote. Pressed input button to just get out of hdm1 input.
Only issue i encountered was the expert setting glitch.
I will try to report to joel canoy wednesday.

Hi iammaki,
May I know what Picture Mode settings you were using on HDMI1 at that time. I apologize if I sound imposing. TIA.
By the way, an LG Technician is scheduled to come to my place either today or tomorrow.

hi guys! i bought mine 2 weeks ago and have encountered 2 problems so far:
1. display flickers and then turns blank after you turn on the set (power light turns white) and no longer responds to remote control inputs (i.e. can't change inputs or access menu). this happens when i turn it off at the AV2 input after playing on the ps2. this has happened 3 or 4 times already but not sure exactly what causes it. the only way to get out of this is to immediately press input and change input to TV just before it flickers. but when you turn it off again from AV2, the problem reoccurs. the only fix i've found so far is to switch to demo mode and then back to home use.
thanks in advance!
I did not also encountered this issue on my unit since i have it and no any kind of issues encountered so far. :). I think not all august 2009 batch of this TV has issues since i haven't encounter any issues with my unit.
Manufacturing month August 2009.

Picture mode is normal. No adjustment done at that settings. I'll try to test again to verify results. I've done it twice already but still can't replicate issue.

Hi ianmaki (and xrampage also),
It is very important when trying to simulate the issues that the Picture Modes to be tested are these 2 (Natural & Sport). As the issue#1 does come out only on these 2 modes.
As for the other modes: Vivid, Standard, Cinema, Game, Expert1, & Expert2, the issue#1 does not happen. The TV would operate just like it normally would (w/ "No Signal" message).
By the way, there is no "Normal" Picture Mode setting. You might be referring to "Standard" or default "Vivid" mode.
Hope that you could do further testing as indicated if you want further confirmation on your set. TIA as always.

to all LG 32 LH70YR users:
they say this LCD supports 120Hz. I buy this because of that feature, but now I cannot maximize the refresh rate even upto 100Hz.. I tried switching to 85 Hz but my PC shows an error telling me that the LCD is not supported with that feature. Is this LCD compatible with PC games? Does this model really supports 120Hz? or is just true motion?
thanks in advance!

I think its only true motion and not the LCD's refresh rate.
Incidentally to other LG 32LH70YR users, whats the best way to test ( or source material to use) the true motion? I don't know if its my eyes as I cannot discern improvements over Off-Low-High setting, even when I put the DVD player in A-B repeat ( repeat a fast action scene over n over).
-
Correct me if i'm wrong but from what I've "heard", 120-200hz on TVs aren't real. They're just filling in the frames and some other gimmick or tech that enable them to look smoother.

I suppose that you are using the VGA (D-Sub 15-pin) connector to connect your PC to this TV. This is labeled RGB IN (PC) at the back of the TV. Pls. refer to page 36 of your LCD TV Owner's Manual. The table shows the maximum resolution/horizontal frequency (KHz)/vertical frequency (Hz). Do not set anything outside of those ranges as it will not work. There is nothing there related to 100Hz or 120Hz that you have raised. The TruMotion 120Hz is not applicable to PC input. In this case, the 2.4ms response time of the panel applies instead.
The TruMotion 120Hz is most likely applicable to movies (video in) on the other inputs. I have tested only using HDMI inputs and I do see it in action.

Hi xrampage,
The easiest way for you to test the issue#1 (as per my steps on page #5 of this thread), is not to connect anything to the HDMI1 input port. That way, it should simulate your HDMI1 source player is turned off. Select HDMI1 input on your TV. And change 'Picture Mode" setting to "Natural" (or "Sport"), and press Menu again to turn off the displayed menu. Power off your TV & unplug (or power switch off under the unit) and let it sit for a while until the red lamp disappears. Then turn it back on and check the "HDMI1" input message as it flashes on the screen. If it flashed in 2 sets/sequences, and the "No Signal" message does not appear after around 45 seconds, then you should have the issue#1 that we have been discussing earlier. Repeat the "all power off/power on" procedure at least 2 more times just to confirm that your unit is not affected. Let us know your findings.
In case that you are affected and couldn't get back the control of your TV remote, plug back in your HDMI1 source and make sure that it is powered on (I suppose your HTPC in this case).
Might also be the reason why you are not encountering the issues previously, I guess that you didn't power off your HTPC before powering off your TV. This issue might not be important to you due to the nature of how you use your LCD TV. Thanks anyway if you do like to help us out with the testing.

Does this model really supports 120Hz? or is just true motion?
thanks in advance!
The 120Hz is not "refresh rate", rather the maximum output frame rate of the TV. Like all other 120Hz and above LCDs (including the Sony Bravia 240Hz high-end display), its refresh rate is normally 60Hz (i.e. 60 input frames per sec), but instead calculates the filler frames ("interpolates") to achieve 120 frames per sec, using TruMotion. But this TruMotion is disabled for VGA input, so I would suggest trying digital connection via HDMI if your video cards allows, coz at least you can enable TruMotion. So effectively you have 120Hz displayed, although none of the interpolation implementations are perfect (neither is Sony's MotionFlow or Samsung's MoviePlus) and so occasionally you might see glitches (tears, artifacts, etc) on screen, but those are too minor to distract gaming with smooth fps. :)
Currently, even BluRay outputs max of 60 fps if I'm not mistaken, so maybe in the future when 120Hz video signals become norm, 120Hz TVs will start accepting 120Hz inputs. Until then, interpolation is our best bet.

Incidentally to other LG 32LH70YR users, whats the best way to test ( or source material to use) the true motion? I don't know if its my eyes as I cannot discern improvements over Off-Low-High setting, even when I put the DVD player in A-B repeat ( repeat a fast action scene over n over).
I think TruMotion is very noticeable when your video source is of high resolution (thereby clean images). Either 720p or 1080p video sources should do. Since anything lower than those resolution would introduce some kind of pixelation (to some degree). Maybe the reason why the effect of TruMotion is not noticeable in your case.
Should you have the 720p or 1080p videos, TruMotion is most noticeable when the end credits roll (white text on black background). Go to that portion of the video and try changing the TruMotion = OFF/LOW/HIGH settings. You will definitely notice the differences. Your viewing distance from the TV might also have some bearing. You may sit closer to the TV to observe this.
While on action sequences of the movie material, TruMotion is not noticeable on fast/very fast movements. You might notice TruMotion on panning of the video or movement of some objects/persons on screen. But definitely not on all objects that moves. If you noticed absurd object movement (w/ pixelation/judder), it means that the TruMotion is set too high. You should lower your TruMotion setting for that movie material. There are some movies that are better with the TruMotion turned off. You should learn to experiment. But then your viewing distance might also be a factor here. Changing from 1080p/60 to 1080p/24 must also be considered as well for selecting the best viewing experience, should your HD media player support it. As the 1080p/24 setting on movies is closer to the original film material as what the director intended. I would usually turn off the TruMotion in this case.
All of these are based on my personal experiences with this LCD TV/HD Media Player/HD Movies. I have read on other forums that some people are used to the effects of TruMotion/Motionflow/or whatever they call it, and are not comfortable without it. As I am also used to smooth motion of a person walking in movies with the TruMotion set to Low.

Like I mentioned above, TruMotion and 120Hz "refresh rate" is one and the same thing.
In my experience, it is best to test TruMotion using 24 fps signals from BluRay, particularly during horizontal panning, as well as fast paced actions. It is also difficult for me to discern improvements using normal 30 fps DVD sources, even on fast action scenes.

Yes, I believe your unit is not affected by this issue because of diifferent Firmware Version and Manufacture Date. Thanks for the info.
Bro sorry my bad... After a series of testing*Boom* I experienced that glitch.
Here's my experience what I experienced...
After I watched a DVD I then turn off (Standby) the source (HT554), followed by turning off the 32LH70 and to my surprised when I turn ON the LCD a Message appeared on the upper left corner HDMI1 and then followed by a few FLICKER then it all turned black. During that black out I can no longer control it using the REMOTE, the only thing that is functioning is the "Power" button.
I bought my unit from SM Appliance Center, it's been less than a month do you think they will replace the unit?
I HOPE SO.....

Bro if I were you try to reset the whole LCD first back to it's default setting, go to OPTION MENU
After RESET, plug your SOURCE HT904 to HDMI1 and then turn it ON.
On the LCD go to MENU and then VIDEO/DISPLAY setting change you video calibration to NATURAL (VIVID was the Default)
After setting the LCD, turn off the SOURCE (HT904) followed by turning off the LCD after a few second interval...
Next turn ON the LCD w/o turning the SOURCE... now see for yourself will flicker and turn out black or NOT.

Hi jcads,
So even with Manufacture Date May 2009 and Firmware 3.15 ( I suppose you must have typo error last time that you indicated 3.015), does experience the same issue.
From what I tested previously, an April 2009 Manufacture Date unit didn't exhibit the issue#1. I don't know if you could find a new replacement unit with the old Manufacture Date. Since you already know how to test this issue, you can do the test on a replacement unit before making it final, if you are allowed to do so. Let me know what you can find.
Unless this is solvable by Firmware Upgrade. But be sure to call up LG Customer Hotline to lodge a case. Pls. refer to our previous posts and get in touch with Mr. Joel Canoy. We are collecting at least 5 cases as per LG Phils. But then, last I talk to Joel is that they are raising this to LG Korea. How true is I don't know yet. As I know that we have not reached 5 cases yet. So pls. do help us out in this regards. TIA.

I suppose you would want your unit repaired as well since I believe your unit is affected also. Specially that it is of Manufacture Date August 2009.
As for the encountered issue#1, it is not a permanent thing anyway, so not to worry if you want to test it. Need to just switch back to other Picture Modes and you won't be encountering the said issue again. Switching from HDMI1 to HDMI2 or to other inputs would also reset the said issue. This is why I call this an "Annoying Issue". It is up to you if you do or don't want to test. We just needed more users to report to LG Phils if they do encounter the said issue. That way, we can have them resolve this at the soonest time possible. Before our warranty expires.
Anyway, I am sure that there are many customers who bought this specific model. We'll just wait for them to discover this thread.

Hi Jcads,
Repeated the steps again one by one with all the picture mode and confirmed have encountered issue # 1
using natural and sport mode,the flickering did happen and dead remote.
Hopefully there will be a firmware upgrade solution.
Simulation Steps made was"
-Turn-on HT904 with HDMI 1 and Turn-On LCD with picture mode vivid as the 1st setting.
-Turn-off HT904 then turn-off the LCD,then turning on the LCD again Result is good.
-Repeated it in all Picture Mode summary results are:
Vivid =No Flickering;Remote Functional
Standard =No Flickering;Remote Functional
Natural =Flcikering;Remote Not-functional
Cinema =No Flickering;Remote Functional
Sport =Flcikering;Remote Not-functional
Game =No Flickering;Remote Functional
Expert 1 =No Flickering;Remote Functional
Expert 2 =No Flickering;Remote Functional
Hopefully theres a solution for all user of 32LH70YR will have a piece of mind. ;D

Just like jcads said, this is just an annoying issue. Hope you read my previous posts. I have indicated there how not to experience such nusance if you would follow my instruction. If you are not using "Natural" & "Sport" mode, you will not never encounter it. Should you need to use any of the 2 modes indicated above, make sure to turn on your input source always to prevent the issue#1 from happening. Issue#1 can easily be reset either by changing to other Picture Modes or by switching to other inputs (ie. HDMI1, HDMI2, HDMI3, etc.). My bet here is that this issue is easily solvable by a firmware update from LG.
With that said, this is still the best value for money 32" FullHD unit out there. Features-wise, no other brand could beat it yet at this time. If you decide to get this unit, then you will not get jealous of the other brands as they don't have all of the features that this unit possess. While if you bought another brand, then look into this unit, you will feel that the other brand still lacks some of the important features that this unit has. The color graphical GUI is also nice which I believe most of the other brands does not have. No other brand does carry a colored back casing (in this case, red). Eleant, nice to look at, smooth but doesn't gather fingerprints, and easily dusted. Unlike other brands with dull black-color back casing, which is a fingerprint magnet or easily gather dust and harder to clean. And this is one of the slimmest 32" LCD TV that I could find. I believe only this unit has a 2-way/4 speaker system, as almost all other brand/unit has 1-way/2 speaker system. Hope you know how it should sound then. Your pick then. Except for the PIP/PAP and Card Slot which this unit doesn't have, if you can live without them.
On movie viewing, the images are amazing with a lot of adjustments that you can make to suit your taste. You'll be surprised at how much these settings are. Too long to list them down here. If you are particular about how the images look, better audition this unit at the stores. Hope that they have high definition sources so that you could experience the beauty of this unit.
Hope that I made you think twice before deciding.

I'm seriously considering buying this particular unit this January but I'm having second thoughts because of the glitches that some are experiencing. It also made me wonder why the price was marked down almost 50% off the MSRP.
ppoooh says it best:] the glitch is hardly a dealbreaker i assure you. and the good thing is that by knowing about it you can check this on your unit BEFORE you buy it, as not everyone seems to have encountered this. what we're really after is to get action from lg for those of us that do have this problem.
below is a list of everyone in this thread with the same issue so far (flickering off):
1. icarusf3ll (fw 3.15, august 2009)
2. ppoooh (fw 3.15, august 2009)
3. lawin (fw 3.5, ??)
4. iammaki (fw 3.15, august 2009)
5. jcads (fw 3.15, may 2009)
6. nelo1 (fw 3.15, sept 2009)
this list excludes others like lgfan (fw 3.0.9, april 2009) who only had the expert mode issue and vx2 who had both issues but on a different model (42lh70yr).
to lawin, can you post your mfg date? also, only you so far have fw 3.5, can you double check this just to make sure? thanks again:]

Thanks icarusf3ll for making a summary of those affected by the "flickering off" issue. I have a hard time putting down a name for this issue.
From the looks of it now, it seemed more like an issue needing Firmware update. Unlike what I had earlier assumed to be a production problem based on manufacturing date - August 2009. Looks like we already have at least 5 owners having this issue. For those affected, make sure to call up LG Customer Service Hotline (c/o Mr. Joel Canoy) to have yours on their record.
We have to confirm whether someone had a more recent version of the Firmware. Need to really confirm what Lawin really have.
P.S. For those who wanted to get the best PQ (for DVDs and AVIs) on this unit, you may want to check out the one I posted on the other thread "42LH70". Sorry but I haven't tested using cable yet, and will not be able to do so, due to my placement of the unit. Unless you guys wanted me to post it down here also. So far, I have only seen request here for cable viewing experience.

question..
can you output the sound of the TV(I mean cable TV viewing) through an external speaker without a receiver? how?
I can only do this whenever I'm watching DVD's and playing PS3. Thank you.

The Audio Out of this unit whether fixed or variable output (selection via the Audio Menu) is a pre-amp signal. Meaning the sound coming out is in the range of millivolts. Not enough to drive a speaker directly. Meaning either a receiver/speaker set with an amplifier or a speaker system with a built-in amplifier is required to output TV sound. There are widely available speaker system w/ built-in amplifier for your selection and they do come in various output music power ratings (some a low as 5watts per channel, but I guess this is not what you need). As the built-in speaker system of this unit is 2-way/4 speaker system at 5watts per channel.
The other option unique to this TV is output via Bluetooth. But then haven't tested this out with a Bluetooth headphone. This option is also a bit expensive. Branded Bluetooth Stereo Headphones run in the range of php3 to 4k or more. I doubt if there are Bluetooth Stereo Speakers available.
No other LCD/Plasma TV can output to speakers directly. Only if your TV have Speaker Out terminals. I guess there are some Sony Bravias with detachable side speakers. As their speakers are not built-in to the said TVs.

Hi boddah,
I would really like to know whether manufacture date September 2009 is also affected with the said 2 issues. By the way, do you have the Firmware Version of your unit? The procedure had been posted on page #5 of this thread. Pls. advise.
On the "typhoon" setting, do you meant this as a joke? (hehehe) As there is no such Picture Mode setting on our units.
Hi Ppoooh,
I'll try to check the FW version as soon as i have the time. Now as for the Typhoon setting, nope I was referring to a user by the name of typhoon859, he posted some setting sfor the LED (lh90) but IMO it works for the LH70 as well, onting tweaks na lang according to your preference. heres the link

Bro seriously it doesn't affect the performance after all. I didn't even noticed it since before I read this...
Price wise, specs wise and feature wise this LCD is a best buy after all...
*Handa kong ipusta ang pustiso ng kapit-bahay namin, I'm sure na ma-a-amaze ka sa LCD na ito
+1, although walang pustiso kapitbahay namin e.
Yung ibang LCD at this price, wala ngang glitch (or hindi lang na-discover pa) pero marami ding features na meron itong LH70 na wala sila. And besides, it's too minor and doesn't even affect all units of owners here.

@jcads
Considering the specs, price, and features I was sold already and ready to buy it but since this would be my first LCD unit I'm a little skeptical in buying. I'm actually contemplating on this unit and any Samsung that has full HD but I couldn't find any unit under 30k
Before I bought this TV, I also considered the Full HD Samsung, which starts at Series 5 I think. This consideration is given the fact that my Samsung 37" R8 I bought 2 years ago never had any problem to this date. However, even with the premium over the price of the Scarlet, the Series 5 lacks some of the features (I don't think it has direct USB DivX playback, does it? Also Bluetooth headset support is a plus for the LG... not to mention the superior look (looks more expensive than the Samsung).
And now even with all this glitches being reported (I'm lucky my unit's not affected), even if I got an August 2009 F/W 3.15 unit I think I would still be happier with it compared to the Samsung Series 5 given the price difference.
-
Here's a concrete statement from ME....
The glitch, issue or what so ever you want to call doesn't affect the performance of the LCD in ALL ASPECT. So far the best solution to get rid of the sudden BLACK OUT is to just turn on the SOURCE (e.g. DVD Player, PS3, WDTV).

For those still planning to buy a 32" FullHD LCD TV. Think again.
I just came back from the Appliance Store. The 3 units LG 32LH70YR on display (running demo units), were also gobbled up by the customers before Xmas. Those are the April 2009 and June 2009 Manufacture Dates. And there are no more 32LH70YR available as of this time. Accdg to the LG Salesman, he had ordered another 30 units which most likely will be delivered to them by January. See how hot these units are selling.
For those interested on 32LF20 (FullHD), I did find some units being sold at Shopwise Libis for php26,995.00. I know that this model had run out on most appliance stores for quite some time. While the 32LH20 is being sold at Robinsons Appliance Stores for php19,995.00 [edited: mistake in price by the LG Salesman] starting today. I believe they do have a lot of unsold units of this model left in their stock, therefore the reason for the discount.
-
Before I bought this TV, I also considered the Full HD Samsung, which starts at Series 5 I think.
I am also looking at Samsung 32B530 and 32B550 before my purchase of this unit. What I noticed before is the Series 5 when displayed beside a Series 6 running the same video material, the Series 6 tends to be blacker while the Series 5 looks greyish.
I believe our 32LH70YR is more blacker at least, than the Series 5. Aside from the other additional features (TruMotion 120Hz, 2.4ms panel, USB playback, etc.), I believe the 32B530/32B550 is still more expensive than our unit.

Simple lang bakit madaling maubos ang 32LH70 sa mall... for less than 30K you get a top-of-the-line 32" model with all the features you can imagine for the price, and then some. Malaman pa lang ng customer na "high-end" or "top range" series ang LH70, maganda agad ang feeling towards the product, especially when they find out it's priced similar to midrange models lang sa competing brands (even entry level lang sa ibang brand like Sony). Not to mention how it stands out in the showroom with its attractive design. They feel it's the biggest bargain right in front of them, so ayun bili agad kahit display unit na, kasi ubos na stocks, hehe. Like them, I feel that way towards this LG, and so do you, I suppose.
Yung LH20, nung naging 26K ang LF20, the LH20 was like 24K? For the small price diff, naka-Full HD ka na dun sa isa. Ayun, sino nga naman bibili nung "entry-level" model kung ganun. Most LH20 nowadays are being sold to unknowing customers who didn't know about the LF20 and possibly neither the LH70.
Having said that, what I wanted to say was actually...
MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL! :)

Bagsakan na ng presyo after holiday season. Kahit maliit na yung mark-up nila, mabilis na man ang turnover kita pa rin sila at kesa ma istockan sila sa bodega, it is wiser to sell it in more cheap price.

Ang laki na ng ibinaba ng presyo ng 32LH70 this December... tingin nyo ba may ibababa pa ito next month? Baka kailangan munang humabol sa bagsak-presyo ang Samsung, Sharp, Toshiba, Sony (I doubt that Sony ever will, though), etc... at lalo na yung mga less-known brands (TCL, Ganz Klar, Syntax, etc.) na mukhang na-beat na ng LG at Panasonic sa presyo this December.
-
For 32LH70yr I think it's either they will stick on the 28K - 30K price range or maybe they will lower it to dispose all their available stock.
Most probably the manufacturing of this model will end up sooner or later or maybe already stopped, not unless there's really a mass demand to produce more. But looking forward to next year LCD trend I think that's their focus now, so disposing all the old LCD stock and models is their major goal now and to produce a new set of LCD/LED that will suit the latest trend of technology.
So what should we looking forward now is how Old LED models drop their prices, knowing the fact that a new breed of LED TV (Back lit) are on the roll next year. ;D
For now let's just enjoy our precious 32LH70yr
Merry Christmas

Sorry guys. Got a confirmation just now from the LG Salesman (thru phone) that the price of the 32LH20 is php29,995.00 less php5,000.00. So the price is really php24,995.00. I will not be able to go to the store everyday to check on the prices.
I was told that he did committed a mistake on that day Dec 24, 2009. And 3 customers almost had bought the units at php19,995.00. He clarified just now that this should be for the 22LH20 instead. Not really worth it for this 22" unit.
I guess the price had already gone back up again during this holiday season. It is better to wait till mid-January when prices would most likely come back down again.
Lucky for those who have bought their units before the holidays. That's why I got mine early too.

kinabit ko sya yesterday to my PC, using HDMI 2 (tagged as "PC") connection on an ATI HD4770 videocard, set it to 1920 x 1080, ok naman kaso di nya sakop yung buong screen (parang merong black margins on all 4 sides). tried to navigate thru the different ratios (16:9, just scan etc) kaso ganun pa din. native 1080p ang tv na to diba so kapag naka set ang resolution sa 1080p, dapat gamit nya ang buong screen? tried to use the VGA connection but the text legibility was crap. im using the latest catalyst drivers BTW, on windows 7. any help/input will be greatly appreciated. cheers!

di lang pala ako. hehehe. nagtataka lang kasi ako, this is supposed to have a native resolution of 1920 x 1080 (1080p) kaya nga eto binili ko para TV/Monitor na sya. nag didisplay naman kaso nga lang di sakop lahat ng screen, which is annoying. kapag naka 1080p ako using my HDMI dvd player, sakop lahat ng screen. and the last monitor i owned (Samsung 2233SW) has 16:9 1080p resolution din, wala naman problema. im thinking sa windows 7 to siguro, or sa catalyst drivers, pero most probably sa TV to mismo e. parang wala ata sya 1:1 pixel mapping? try ko mamaya sa IGP and ill let you guys know. at any rate kung meron may alam kung pano remedyuhan to by all means share the knowledge hehe. cheers ;)

I haven't called LG Customer Service and consult things regarding this issue. I'm kind a busy this past few days and considering it's holiday I was thinking that maybe LG CSR are on vacation too, LOL!
So BTW what did the CSR said? Do you think they have plans, or maybe doing a necessary action regarding this issue?

Hi Jcads,
Repeated the steps again one by one with all the picture mode and confirmed have encountered issue # 1
using natural and sport mode,the flickering did happen and dead remote.
Hopefully there will be a firmware upgrade solution.
Simulation Steps made was"
-Turn-on HT904 with HDMI 1 and Turn-On LCD with picture mode vivid as the 1st setting.
-Turn-off HT904 then turn-off the LCD,then turning on the LCD again Result is good.
-Repeated it in all Picture Mode summary results are:
Vivid =No Flickering;Remote Functional
Standard =No Flickering;Remote Functional
Natural =Flcikering;Remote Not-functional
Cinema =No Flickering;Remote Functional
Sport =Flcikering;Remote Not-functional
Game =No Flickering;Remote Functional
Expert 1 =No Flickering;Remote Functional
Expert 2 =No Flickering;Remote Functional
Hopefully theres a solution for all user of 32LH70YR will have a piece of mind. ;D
Beg to counter on your finding..mine was in:
HDMI1 = Vivid = Flicker; Remote not-functional
Solution (thanks to Jcads/Ppoooh): Power off everything. Removed plug from the AC adapter until red light disappears. Plugged it back in, power on source, power on LCD. Working again. :) will have to report this tom.

Underscan/Overscan settings for TV can now be applied from the Catalyst Control Center - TV Properties Adjustments page
I made a short tutorial in case others are interested in changing this setting. To adjust Underscan/Overscan in Catalyst Control Center (version 9):
* right click on the Desktop and choose Catalyst(TM) Control Center
(http://i38.tinypic.com/2mwbe4m.png)
(http://* from the upper left side corner, left click and choose Desktops & Displays)
* find the display you want to configure and right click on its icon from the lower part of the window and choose Configure
(http://i33.tinypic.com/2nsnu43.jpg)
* go to the Scaling Options tab and adjust the slider as you see fit (for me it's 0%, so the image can fit the entire TV screen) and click Apply

Happy Viewing.

Beg to counter on your finding..mine was in:
HDMI1 = Vivid = Flicker; Remote not-functional
Solution (thanks to Jcads/Ppoooh): Power off everything. Removed plug from the AC adapter until red light disappears. Plugged it back in, power on source, power on LCD. Working again. :) will have to report this tom.
I have also this issue on my unit. I will call LG hotline once im at manila.

how do you check this out?
Bro to check your LCD firmware insert a FLASH DISK on the USB Port and the go to MENU selection. At the Menu selection screen HIGHLIGHT the OPTIONS on the MENU and then press number "7" on the REMOTE seven times.
You can check the Box or I think at the back of the LCD for the Date Manufactured...

But so far so good it do the jobs for me. Maybe i will be reporting this next week since im at bulacan now. While waiting for the update on our issue im happy using my unit it does the job. It has also good PQ in playing original DVD with the settings that has been posted here. :)
-
hey guys, add me up on the list. i still have to call Mr. Canoy since it's already holiday starting tomorrow.
My firmware is 3.15, mfg. date is August 2009.
I still have another issue with the USB photo/mp3/video player. It can't read HD .avi and .mkv files. i know it's asking too much but even the 42LH70YR can't play it. How come Samsung Series 6 TV's can? It's unfair.
I like this TV, but I'm thinking of returning this to where i bought it since the LG representative of the store is not even helping me on my concern.

Do you guys know saan pa may stock nito? Seems like everybody has ran out of stock for this particular model. Some say we'll have to wait til 2nd - 3rd week of January before LG starts shipping out 32LH70's...bummer

I just saw a unit on display at SM Appliance Center - Megamall today. It is already gathering dust. I doubt that anybody would like to buy this display unit. Was not able to ask the Salesman whether they do still have sealed units on stock. You may call up the store to confirm availability. But then the price tag attached was php39,990.00 and no cash discount indicated. Better check out the price as well.

@Ppoooh
Bro what's up? So far I'm gathering more 32LH70 owners that are experiencing the same problem. I haven't called Joel since I'm kind a busy this past few days and I'm leaving out of town.
I was hoping that they will do a necessary action regarding our concern, we're more than 5 owners having the same problem it's way beyond Sir Joel's cota w/c is 5 number of incident report.

It is good that a summary of those affected have been gathered continuously. We wouldn't be able to talk to anybody in LG Phils due to the holiday break. We can only do follow up by 1st week of January 2010.
Have been trying other channels of LG to inquire about "Software/Hardware Updates". The posting I done thru LG website last Dec 23 have been responded to just today. It was the Customer Relationship Management of LG Indonesia. But then the reply email is "[email protected]", meaning I couldn't send a reply to it. Accdg to the response email, they will get in touch with their R&D on my reported bugs (no details given to them yet). And they will get back to me (most likely to my email address) anytime soon. Anybody here wants to coordinate with them thru a toll-free number given to me? I might not be able to dial a toll-free number thru my telephone. As I didn't have my IDD enabled. It would be better for me to send it thru PM for those who would want to take this route. They might not know that I am from the Philippines. As the online form on the website wouldn't allow me to change to another country except "Indonesia".
So for the meantime, be patient. Just enjoy your LCD TVs during this holiday break.

fyi...Robinson's Galleria Appliance Center is selling them for 39K+ less 8k with bundled 'freebies'. AVSurfer is also selling them for 29k+ in the same mall.

Also saw this a while ago at Robinson's Galleria, it cost 31,990 and comes with a LG GB320 phone (worth 4k-5k). I thought that it would be sold out by now but there was a lot of display units in the store.

Thats a progress.
Hey, even if the unit has issues. I'm still enjoying it. I don't really change picture mode anyways. But still its best that our unit be fixed

Happy new year to all. :)
Issue of my unit has been reported to LG costumer hotline as per Joel Canoy advise this has been reported to LG Korea and as per advise by by LG Korea they will make new firmware to resolve the issue. I think LG technician should do the work for updating the firmware of our units so that if issue occurs they will be the one liable. :)
Even in baron antenna i love the PQ of my LG Scarlet. :)

POSSIBLE SOLUTION TO THE GLITCH
I have my 32LH70YR connected to a Philips DVP-3360K. Both LG Simplink/Philips Easylink set to ON. In noticed the flickering/blank out problem while doing a long fast-forward with TV set to Sport mode.
Go to Picture, set to Sport mode, then under Advanced Settings change the Eye Care setting to "Off". Did the same thing with the Natural mode. It seems to have resolved the problem of the screen flickering/blanking out when turning on with unpowered source. Still observing, though.
As far as I can tell, Eye Care is some kind of anti-dazzling option, which adjusts picture brightness and keep changes in light levels less drastic while watching. Seems kind of redundant if you already have the eco-mode/intelligent sensor on.

Try the econo mode/intelegent sensor = off and eye care = on if the issue persist then that is not the solution then. The feature eye care is there so there must be no issue even if the owner of the unit will on that feature on those mode's.
The flickering issue should not be there since those mode's is using default setting's correct me if im wrong.

For those who also owned the LG HT554TM HTIB packaged with our beloved LG 32LH70YR, I would like you to visit this thread for any issues you found on your "LG HT554TM". Thanks.

My Econo-mode is set to Maximum, while the Intelligent Sensor AV option has the Eye Care option greyed out (cannot be changed).
I have verified, by checking the reaction of the TV before and after setting Eye Care to ON and OFF under the Natural/Sport setting; leaving the DVD player unpowered, I wait for the TV's reaction on power-up after each re-setting. As it turns out, the flickering/blanking out always came back after I turned Eye Care ON; it did not come back when it was OFF.
I suspect there is a conflict arising from the Eye Care setting and the process of adjustment of the TV backlight when the Econo-mode kicks in. This may be what causes the flickering and blanking out as the two simultaneously try to adjust the TV screen.
That said, I did not say this was a bug fix. This may be just a simple solution so that the problem is not triggered until a complete fix is carried out, if you want to go ahead and have it done. Just because Eye Care is there doesn't mean you have to use it. There are already 3 ways by which the TV backlight/brightness is automatically adjusted (Eye Care, Econo-mode, Intelligent Sensor), in addition to the manual adjustment options, so I don't care if I turn any one of them off permanently. It doesn't significantly affect the TV's performance or my enjoyment anyway.
-
My Econo-mode is set to Maximum, while the Intelligent Sensor AV option has the Eye Care option greyed out (cannot be changed).
Have you try to OFF the econo mode and try to ON the Intelligent Sensor AV option has the Eye Care option to test if the issue still persist? Is your settings the defaults settings of the game mode and natural mode or have already adjust the settings? I encounter the issue by the default setting of those mode's (Game and natural mode). I will check later if the two settings is ON on the default settings of the two mode's.
Just got home check and do the following to double check the issue.
i have reset the settings to default and i got this settings below but the issue still persist.
Natural default settinds:
Energy Saving = Off
Eye Care = On
Sports default settings:
Energy Saving = Off
Eye Care = On
For those who encounter the issue kindly double check your settings in default if you issue still persist. :)

Kaya nga, the problem is with the default settings with Eye Care ON, so the solution proposed is simply to NOT use the default settings by turning Eye Care OFF. That's why it appears to be a programming glitch, as far as I can tell.

Some of your info is confusing. Kindly double check again your test or just a typo error? :)

Ganda set-up, ano yung outi na may antenna sa gilid? NMT ba?
In one of the threads here in pinoydvd, may post na pag naglagay ka ng ilaw sa likod ng LCD e mas nagiging maganda ang PQ ( parang "ambilight" ba yun?). Anyway, i tried it by using a white cabinet light ( yung nabibile sa Ace or DIY na manipis na flourescent light, electronic type - +/- P250.00). Ganda ng effect lalo na pag-patay ibang lights, mas na-enhance ang PQ! LG Fans you may want to try it ...
-
Thanks sa mga positive feedback. :)
Yung table sa Mall of Asia Hypermarket ko lang nabili yan. Hehe. Mura lang kasi display unit na lang tas sale pa. I think may mga tv rack pa dun pero iba na design.
@Lawin
Buffalo wireless router yan bro. And thanks for the tip on the ambilight. I will try that when I have the time.

good catch jay! i suspected that there was a certain feature causing this that is unique to the sports and natural mode, i'll verify this later.

update on the issue.
Joel Canoy called me at advise that i should email him regarding the issue for him to collate all then he will give to his/her supervisor. I suggest that all user that have this issue should also do the same. Thanks
-
Is the LH70 in stock right now at major appliance centers?
-
I also emailed mr. Canoy of LG to document my service request, then called him as well ( he will ask what devices you use when you encountered the issue) . He mentioned that "problem" is already reported to LG Korea and that they are waiting for a firmware update but no advise yet when this will be ready.
-
emailed him as well. very quick and polite response from Mr. Canoy. I just hope the TV can be firmware-upgraded so it can play HD .avi and .mkv files. ;D

Mejo malabo atang firmware update lang e kaya na mag-play ng HD avi and mkv files, unless the processor of the TV is powerful enough to handle these large files with no performance issues. Pero kasama din ito sa wishlist ko for future updates kahit na long shot. :)

Hi guys! Balak ko bumili nito pagbalik ko mula bakasyon, saan nyo ma recommend bumili ng mura? Thanks!

Yup, I don't think LG has started shipping out a new batch of Scarlets yet. But when I was asking around last month yung pinakamura na nakita was at Ansons in front of Podium, 26k.

the European Models can play HD .avi and .mkvs. I believe it has the same chip as ours. I have workshop manuals or lh70/lh70yr/lh7000 models but i still havent read them. :)

I will just stick to my HTPC in playing HD and MKV movies since it can output 5.1 channel sound since the if you use USB to play movie of LH70 it can only output stereo sound so you can't enjoy your HD movies with 5.1 channel sound. :)
-
It plays avis terribly IMO, poor processing i'm guessing. Also, you'd really want your TV unit getting hotter and being stressed trying to do mkv?

I set the energy saving to maximum and i can still set the eye care to ON/OFF.
Sir what conflict are you talking on this one? The energy saving is on and the eye care settings is on? Base on what i understand on your statement both are ON.

Ganito na lang para simple:
1. All my settings are default, except for Simplink which is ON, and Econo-mode setting which is set to Maximum. The only connection is the Philips DVP-3360K player. Normally, like in Cinema mode, if I turn off the dvd player ahead of the TV, the screen just shows a "no signal" sign and waits until I turn the TV off. If I turn the TV on with the player off, the TV shows the "no signal" sign and waits for the player to be turned on.
2. When I am in either Natural or Sport mode, and turn off the player before the TV, the screen flickers (the "no signal" sign never appears), then blanks out. There's a white circle around transparent power button but the TV becomes unresponsive to all Remote's inputs except the Power on/off. The same thing happens if i turn the TV on without the player being on first.
3. I turn the unit back on, switch to another mode before it flickers, and get to the Picture Menu. I go to the Natural Picture menu, go to the Advanced Controls settings, and turn Eye Care OFF. I also go to the Sport Picture menu, go to the Advanced Controls settings, and turn Eye Care OFF.
4. After that is done, when I turn the DVD player off before the TV, the screen no longer flickers, and this time whether I am in Natural or Sport Picture setting, the "No signal" sign blinks on and off just like normal. The TV is responsive to the Remote. The same thing happens when I turn the TV on without the player being on.
5. The Intelligent Sensor mode is a Picture option like Natural and Sport mode. If select it, and go to the Advanced Controls settings, the Eye Care option is greyed out so you can't change it in that particular mode. The Eye Care option is also greyed out in all other Picture modes (I've never gotten the flickering problem with any of those modes).
So, when you talk/email Mr. Canoy, just tell him the problem apparently has something to do with the Eye Care control/setting. Forget about everything else, just give him that as a starting point, so that the LG techies can find out faster where the problem is. Or, cut and paste this message and send it to him.

Normally, like in Cinema mode, if I turn off the dvd player ahead of the TV, the screen just shows a "no signal" sign and waits until I turn the TV off. If I turn the TV on with the player off, the TV shows the "no signal" sign and waits for the player to be turned on.
2. When I am in either Natural or Sport mode, and turn off the player before the TV, the screen flickers (the "no signal" sign never appears), then blanks out. There's a white circle around transparent power button but the TV becomes unresponsive to all Remote's inputs except the Power on/off. The same thing happens if i turn the TV on without the player being on first.
3. I turn the unit back on, switch to another mode before it flickers, and get to the Picture Menu. I go to the Natural Picture menu, go to the Advanced Controls settings, and turn Eye Care OFF. I also go to the Sport Picture menu, go to the Advanced Controls settings, and turn Eye Care OFF.
4. After that is done, when I turn the DVD player off before the TV, the screen no longer flickers, and this time whether I am in Natural or Sport Picture setting, the "No signal" sign blinks on and off just like normal. The TV is responsive to the Remote. The same thing happens when I turn the TV on without the player being on.
5. The Intelligent Sensor mode is a Picture option like Natural and Sport mode. If select it, and go to the Advanced Controls settings, the Eye Care option is greyed out so you can't change it in that particular mode. The Eye Care option is also greyed out in all other Picture modes (I've never gotten the flickering problem with any of those modes).
So, when you talk/email Mr. Canoy, just tell him the problem apparently has something to do with the Eye Care control/setting. Forget about everything else, just give him that as a starting point, so that the LG techies can find out faster where the problem is. Or, cut and paste this message and send it to him.
nice work in finding out the root cause. i'll forward this to mr. canoy. hopefully they would also include a fix for the expert mode issue which i find more annoying:]

Good job on your further testing. So it seemed that you have narrowed down to this specific condition.
Picture Modes "Natural" and "Sport" with Eye Care "ON" are causing the Input Blinking Issue.
Apparently, if the Picture Modes are other than the above with the Eye Care "ON", there is no issue. As I have already confirmed this previously to be true. While if the Picture Modes are as above, but the Eye Care is "OFF", there is no issue as well. This I have not confirmed yet. If there's a chance, I'll try.
On another note, since I am watching movies at night with the surrounding lights turned off. I prefer to use the Eye Care "ON" setting. As the large white portion of the video is much milder to the eyes. But if I set the Eye Care to "OFF", the large white portion of the video would really hurt my eyes (couldn't watch for long). This setting is too sharp for my eyes. Maybe this Eye Care "OFF" setting doesn't hurt as much when the room lights are on/daytime. Anybody experienced this? Do note that I have always set my Energy Savings to "OFF". As it conflicts with the remote of my WDTV HD Media Player.
Hope that LG could resolve this Input Blinking issue at the soonest time possible. I don't know why Mr. Canoy never had the chance to check out this forum/thread. As I have already given him this link the first time I emailed him last year. He confirmed that he have internet browsing access from his office.

Check mo rin sa Gadgets in Style (Festival Mall and Shangrila branches) baka meron pang stocks. Dun ako nakabili nung mid December, during that time wala na rin stocks sa mga appliance stores pero sila marami pa kasi may kakarating lang na batch nun sa kanila, yung October 2009 manufactured.
The price wasn't bad, too... 29K ko nabili with the wall-mount.
-
Verbl Kint,
reliable source ba? hehe i'm waiting for stocks to arrive. grabe, ang laki ng difference ng trumotion eh..the one closest that i canvassed na may truemotion (or 120mhz refresh rate) is the new samsung 32B650 with motionplus but that retails at 40K++.
i want to know if the samsung is worth the 12K difference from the lg scarlet.
tagal kasi ng stocks ng scarlet. yung ps3 ko naka-standby lang kasi wala pang lcd tv.

saan ba ako makakabili ng BLUETOOTH headset ng LH70?
-
I got mine (LG 32LH70YR w/ free wall bracket and LG cellphone) from Robinson Novaliches, QC last Sunday (Jan. 10, 2010) after 2 or 3 hours of watching DVD sa bahay na notice ko agad na may dead pixel. (Grrrrrr x1 !!!).. :'( binalik ko kaagad kinabukasan) ang masakit pa, wala ng stock..(Grrrrr 2x.. ???)....

You can try Audio Video Stores or Computer Shops. Philips have one starting at php4.6k++. This is usually available in AV stores. I am referring to a stereo bluetooth headset. I believe Genius also have a new model. You have to check this at computer shops (I saw one in SM Megamall). I believe Sony also have one also. You can check Sony stores. And I did saw a rare one, Creative brand. I believe this can be found thru the web. I believe PC Hub clearance sale have one. I believe CDR King have run out of bluetooth headset.
I am waiting for a cheaper/good quality versoin to come out.
Unless you would want to get the non-stereo version which is common for mobile phones. You can check these at cellphone shops.
-
poorboy, sayang naman. I think you're maybe one of the last persons that got the LH70YR dito. I'm waiting for new stocks to arrive. already left my contact number to numerous appliance stores if their new stocks arrive.

malas mo bro. Just enjoy it muna. Papalitan daw ba?:)
-
Buti naman these days kahit 1 dead pixel lang pwede nang palit. Wasn't there a time a few years back when 1 or 2 dead pixels were considered "acceptable" and they refused to replace the unit?
Anyway, kahit ako papapalitan ko talaga basta may dead pixel. Hope you get your new unit soon. :)

Ni-refund ko nalng sa sama ng loob ko ksi wla nang stock, tpos di pa sure kung kelan magkakaroon ng bagong stock... Grrrrr ???! 4x
Hindi ko naisip icheck yung screen ksi excited na akong iuwi he he he at kampante naman akot kilala yung store na binilhan ko ng unit. PERO ! ???
Ewan ko kung intentional yung pagbenta nila na may defect (Robinsons Novaliches) sa amin ksi ngayon ko lang napag isip isip.. 1st mali yung label na nakalagay na nkuha kong unit (pang 42 inches) eh 32 inches lang yun, 2nd wala yung bracket "Y" shape para sa stand sa box na binuksan, ang pinalit eh yung nsa display nila... so hindi ko pinansin yun ksi ewo-wall mount ko naman....
eto yung pict ng label...

Ganyan din yung label ng LG Scarlet ko i think yung 42 is not intended that its the 42 inch. :)

Bakit yung naka display dun sa rack nila eh "32 Inch"? ang mali ko lang eh di ko nakunan ng pict yung naka display nila dati at nung ipinalabas ko sa stock room yung dating naka display eh wala na yung sticker he he he... talaga naman ;D
anyway.. till now nami-miss ko parin yung Scarlet na yun! dead na dead ako sa porma khit may dead pixel, ganda ksi..lalo na nung pipanood ko yung IronMan.. ah ahhhh! ganda :o,..then da! dannnnn napansin ko may dead pixel na..
tpos yun na nga nagalit na si Mrs. ??? ksi ang budget cash ko eh P27k lang at pinakaskas ko nalng yung plastic nya dun sa remaining balance na P5.9K (P31,990).. tpos bulilyaso may tama pala yung unit.... waaaaaa lungkot... :(
-
ang tagal naman magkaroon ng stocks!!! cant wait..
any recommendation for another model?
what I like is:
Full HD
Divx USB built in
high contrast ratio
fast pixel response
with truemotion feature also
parang LH70 featureas din.
TY
-
Puro display unit na lang nakikita ko sa mga stores, robinson's, western, abenson/avent... may idea kyo kelan mgsale ulit tulad nung "black friday" sa robinson's?
-
Got an email from an LG sales rep, Feb pa daw darating stocks nila......ouch! tagal pa!!
-
About the label that says "42 inch"... it's NOT a wrong sticker.
LG uses the same sticker throughout the LH70 series, regardless of the size. The "42-inch only" label means that the ultra-slim dimension (39.7mm thickness when viewed from the side) only applies to the 42-inch variant, and the others (32" and 47") are a little thicker than that.
I can attest to this because my 32" unit has this same sticker... as well as 3 other display units I've seen back in December when I was scouting for this model. In the stores they sometimes have another badge that says 32" but I think that's for display units only.

Does scarlet have 1:1 Pixel mapping? can you connect it to a computer via HDMI without issues like overscanning or text becomes to small to read? please advice.. thanks.

Are there any updates regarding on their plan to make a resolution Firmware update regarding the minor gltich? I was trying to call their Customer service hot line but no one is answering the phone.
Thank You

I tried connecting a computer and YES it has 1:1 mapping. If connecting via HDMI, you may need to make sure that the Aspect Ratio setting is set to "Just Scan". If you use VGA, this 1:1 mapping is automatically set, as long as your video card supports the 1920x1080 resolution.
Actually when I connected it to my comp (Macbook), I found the picture quality amazing -- text is crisp, images have brilliant colors. Medyo mas mabagal nga lang mag-respond yung Intelligent Sensor nya compared sa light sensor ng Macbook, pero that doesn't make it's PQ any worse.

so the 1:1 pixel mapping only applies when you connect it via vga? gusto ko kasi yung 1:1 pixel mapping feature applies pag via HDMI kabit. my video card kasi has an hdmi output. thanks.

No, it applies to HDMI connection, too... I just meant that you might need to set the Aspect Ratio setting on the TV to "Just Scan", unlike with the VGA connection where you don't need to do anything at all.

on the contrary. I use an ATI HD4770 with my LH70 thru HDMI, the 1st time I used 1080p, I had these 4 nasty black bars on all sides of the screen, so I had to use Overscan on Catalyst control center. This is on the latest Catalyst drivers BTW, and this might just be on ATI cards (or worse just in my case hehe). Text is readable, but laptop/stand alone LCD's definitely look better. Tried tweaking with clear type, definitely is much better now. Text in LH70 is OK but, IMO text on standalone LCD's look better.
on movies/HD/gaming though is an altogether different story 8)

yeah i knew hdmi connectivity wouldnt be plug and play with LG LH series because it wasnt mentioned in the manual unlike toshiba and samsung models which explicitly state in their manuals that you can connect the pc via hdmi. and both samsung and toshiba have PC mode. I might wait for a few months for both panasonic and LG to catch up on PC connectivity before purchasing.

I'm using an ATI VC and i does not do 1:1 pixel i have to go to CC center to have it full screen.

Yah it is not mention in the manual of LG but as long that you have HDMI/DVI in your PC you can connect to the LCDTV HDMI. Even other brand of LCDTV. ;D ;D :o :o

Yes you are correct in saying that as long as both the PC and HDTV have hdmi connectors you can connect them. however, PQ and the text will not be as readable and good as those models which explicitly state in their manuals that you can connect it thru HDMI.

I would think that the problem is, at least in part, with the video card, for the simple reason that all other 1080p players (NMT, BluRay, etc) work just fine at 1:1 pixel mapping with the LG (just ensure that Aspect Ratio setting is set to "Just Scan").
Also, just curious, what resolution setting is available in the ATI Control Panel? Exactly 1920 x 1080 ? I still can't see why it would be any less compatible than a typical NMT or BluRay player.

Here is the settings of my LCDTV in ATI CC. BUt not only us LG owners encounter the said issue. Owner of other brands also encounter this issue. Is there a issue in pixel mapping 1:1 in some HDMI cable since im using a CDRKing HDMI Cable to connect to my HTPC.

Yes it' true that's why the text of our unit is not that as sharp/clear as other brand with the pc features but as long as i can use with TV/Movie viewing im a satisfied user of LG Scarlet. Cons of using the LG Scarlet as a PC Monitor is higher electric bill. :)

Wala sa cable yan sir. Sa HDTV talaga. Some brands and models do the 1:1 pixel mapping sa VGA/RGB connection like LG/Panny etc. Kahit na full HD na yang scarlet, di parin nag 1:1 pixel mapping via HDMI pag thru. However, in samsung and Toshiba, designed talaga yung 1:1 pixel mapping ng PC connection via HDMI. Because if you read the manual of toshiba, it says na if you connect via VGA, certain blur can occur daw and text might be smaller. However when you connect via HDMi, walang disclaimer. As regards higher consumption of electricity, ganun talaga. You always have to pay more for better performance and enjoyability! hehe Thanks sa info sir.
Also, computer signals are different from DVD or other input signals kaya bottom line is, if you want no compatibility issues in connecting your PC to your HDTV via HDMI, read the manual and it should explicitly state that you can connect via HDMI with no disclaimers. Because asking the sales agents alone in my experience is futile. DI nila alam yun. sasabihin lang nila pwede kahit hindi. Peace

What exact samsung model? baka older ones pa. Sa sony i have no idea sa HDMI connectivity. The new samsung models kasi explicit na HDMI connectivity compliant and without disclaimers. Iba kasi kahit pwede kabit, explicit din sa manual that "text might appear smaller." Sa toshiba, the one im using, no problems with hdmi connectivity. BOth samsung and toshiba have PC mode.

Matanong ko lang... hindi ba maganda yung VGA (analog) output nung ATI na cards? I occasionally connect my Mac (NVidia yung video nya) to the LG Scarlet via VGA at 1920x1080/60Hz and I don't see any blurred text or any other PQ issues, in fact the text is so crisp and the colors pop brilliantly. I tried connecting by HDMI (through a chain of cables: miniDisplayPort -> DVI, then DVI -> HDMI, then HDMI cable to Scarlet), and I didn't see much difference (was so surprised).
So in some cases, probably depending on your video card's VGA output quality, connecting to the LG Scarlet via VGA is a viable option, if you wanna use the TV as your PC monitor. The catch is, as an HTPC monitor, it seems to me that it disables TruMotion 120Hz and Real Cinema 24p and all those video processing. But this is also true for the "PC Mode" of the other LCDs, right?

THe reason why you didnt notice any difference between VGA and HDMI in the scarlet because the optimal settings in your TV was designed in your VGA output. THe 1:1 Pixel mapping was placed via VGA. Your TV wasnt designed to be connected via HDMI. Also, most 32 LCD TVs are only 60hz. And if you read the manual of toshiba or samsung, it doesnt say that real Cinema 24p will be disabled if connected via PC mode. Not to mention walang sound pag connected via VGA. Most HDTV manufacturers now a days know that more and more people use LCD tvs as computer monitors due to the affordability of video cards with HDMI outputs. That is why i really appreciate Toshiba and Samsung's move to address this. But i'm sure within this year, all the other manufacturers will design their HDTV to be connected to an HTPC via HDMI.

I don't know how true, but when I talked to an LG rep (nung nag-exhibit sila sa Festival Mall back in December), yung 30K na cash price nila won't get any lower any time soon. Unlike with Samsung and others which are expected to drop prices this first quarter of 2010. Sabi nya, kakababa lang daw kasi nung Scarlet nung December by a huge drop from 39K (and to think na originally 49K ata ito early 2009, tama po ba?) so they're not optimistic of another price drop in the next few months.
Anyway, this gives enough time for Samsung and the others to catch up in price drops (yung Panasonic ata nagbabaan na rin last December?). In demand sobra tuloy ang Scarlet, kasi yung equivalent model ng Samsung (pinakamabenta pa rin atang brand ito?) ang layo pa rin ng price. Pinagpilian ko rin yung Series 5 na yun at yung Scarlet, then it didn't take me long to decide on the Scarlet due to its great value for money.
For Sony, I don't expect any significant price drop from them kahit kelan. LOL.

For PC connection, hindi ba talaga allowed ang 120Hz refresh rate? If ever saang mode mo lang pwede magamit ang 120Hz?

Wala naman panalo yung series 5 ng samsung sa Scarlet and i terms of price drop with samsung series 6 baka ipantay lang sa scarlet ganun din ok lang na di mag price drop ang LG for this unit. Last time na check ko series 6 ng samsung nasa 36k or 38k then nawala na din sa PH website nila ung 32 na series 6. ;D :o :o

For me it's as clear as the daylight. If they see most are looking for their product there is no reason for them to lower the price.

Best way to check is the white text scrolling during end credits. While playing it, try changing the TruMotion setting from OFF -> LOW -> HIGH.
There should be a difference specially between the 1st 2 settings. As you should be seeing jerkiness of the white text if TruMotion is turned OFF. With TruMotion turned ON, there will be no jerkiness (smooth movement). This is in reference to an HD source material (whether 720p or 1080p).
Harder to notice on moving objects in movies specially for slow to fast motions. I believe very fast motions cannot be improved much with TruMotion.

Been finding this LCD TV since December and I couldn't find it anywhere. Settled for a bigger LCD of another brand. Went to Robinson's Pulilan, Bulacan today to pick up some stuff, and I saw the 32" Scarlet II in full glory - 32k for those who'd be buying through cash.
Asked if they are new stocks, and the salesman said matagal na daw yun dun ;P Seems like people don't know this place too much...
Happy with my 37" Panny, though :)

^^ Ang layo naman po kasi ng Bulacan. :)

1TB external harddisk work with my scarlet smoothly but i don't use it as a player and TV at the same time since it will produce more heat. ;D ;D :o :o ::) ::)

I have tested using a Seagate 500GB 2.5" SATA mobile HDD in an external enclosure (NTFS file system). It was detected by the 32LH70YR, and was able to play DivX movies, jpegs & mp3s. No need for additional external power for this mobile HDD to work.
I suppose the 1TB external HDD of 'xrampage' uses an external power supply. I assume that this is the 3.5" version.
-
ur 1TB has a power adapter right?
-
i dont know whats wrong with the passport and it cant be detected by the scarlet my other seagate 160gb 2.5 mobile w/ a generic enclosure can be detected with my lcd
-
For those who is searching for 32LH70YR stock you can call saver's mart i think they have stock at their tarlac branch. As per posted at TPC one TPCe'r successfully got 1 unit by asking if they can transfer the unit here at their manila branches. As per posted also they have 7 stocks.

Yeah I have the same WD Passport, and doesn't work either. Looks like it's not an issue of not enough power to the Passport, since the hard disk indicator lights up. Just seems that the LG can't recognize this hard disk.
I tried Buffalo and Seagate mobile HDs and they all work... but not the WD... weird.

Good find, xrampage.

Hi guys' bought mine last Tuesday and I did a backreading of the thread, I was not surpised at all after I encountered the bug/glitch in w/c after turning the LCD on, it would flicker and show a black screen as well as not being able to use the R/C.... my firmware is 3.15 mfg date Sept. 2009.... I hope our same problem could be fixed by LG asap...

Hi guys,

I was wondering if there has been any news about the subject. Can anyone please tell me how can I get in touch with an LG representative that is aware of this situation.
Thanks.

what happened bro? i thought your happy with this unit
I was, until recently. Actually nung first ko wala talaga yan, after a month or two, i started noticing it. I experimented with having an electric fan cool it down and it somehow sort of worked. Recently these past few weeks though, that doesn't seem to work anymore. :( Sigh
where did you buy this? under warranty paba?
SnS. Not worried that much since it still has full warranty by LG itself anyway but this is such a hassle.
It's just a JPEG sir. :) It's for calibration purposes, but i just used it to let you guys clearly see what it looks like on an steady dark image.

Hi vx2, do I just play this jpg (picture) file on my 32LH70YR? Tried this file, there was an even darkness on my LCD TV. Didn't have the blotches as on your 1st picture. But didn't also see any faint image hidden behind (either numbers or letters) it. Am I doing anything wrong here. Note: The result of my test was based on my current picture setting. But then, I did notice some very faint image of texts on my LCD PC monitor using this jpg.

It has something to do with the Black Level range sir Ppooh. It's not that big a deal at least your unit does not exhibit those stains.

I'm a fan boy as well got my unit from remal sales just this afternoon. uber excited to play with it, hehe.

good morning folks! i couldn't believe that finally, meron na akong scarlet. uber happy. i bought this from remal sales last february 12. i didn't expect na sobrang laki pala nya. buti na lang nagkasya sya sa tv rack. i needed to cut a layer para lang magkasya sya. the tv rack was originally made for a 21" sony tv more than a year ago. so far, i haven't encountered any problem. yung nga lang, medyo na-frustrate ako 'cause it's not playing .mkv files. but still not giving up. i can feel na pwede sya. still googling for the workaround up until now. manufacturing date: january 2010. firmware version: 3.25.

Guys,
I'm not sure if this solution was already posted in this forum, but in case hindi pa, share ko lang.
For those proud owner of the Scarlet that are encountering flickering and losing control with a blank screen of their TV whenever they shutoff their HDMI player, I think I got the workaround. Here goes:
Go to Option and turn Simplink to OFF. That's it.
Tried it. Shutoff my Xtreamer connected to HDMI 3 and the TV screen goes blank and then show the message "No Signal". Switched OFF and ON my TV with no problem. Cycled to all Inputs with similar success.
Looks to me like a problem with LG's CEC instruction. My Xtreamer has no CEC and my Philips DVD's CEC is not working with LG's Simplink, so I'm not losing any functionality shutting the feature off.
Now, I just hope LG is reading this and starts doing some firmware update to address this. Then maybe they can allow my Philips to work smoothly with their remote control.
Hope this help some of you guys!
regards,
-
...At last...already got mine....
And it didn't disappoint... ;D ;D ;D
Well, I have some questions though....
Does LH70 supports 120 trumotion while connected through PC but connected thru HDMI? I noticed that RGB/PC input doesn't support trumotion...
Also, is it ok if I use DVI-HDMI cable to connect my PC to the TV's HDMI? would there be a big difference?
-
update kung may nahanap ka na work around sa mkv:)
Why you want to play MKV files on your TV since the TV won't support DD, DTS, AC3 5.1 that has been encoded on the HD movies. This will also produce more heat on your TV.

better buy and nmt...
got a wdtv live and using it with my lg its really worth it super clear movies hehehe after using mkvs u wont like to watch dvdrips na hehehehe

pare, malaki ba difference ng heat emitted by scarlet by playing through it's usb port? lagi mo kasi nababangit yan eh :)
anyway, I'm using an Xtreamer for playing video files on my scarlet, kaya I dont have to worry on this.
Also try nyo yung energy saver ng scarlet to reduce heat.

try to play high definition AVI through USB of the files on your scarlet and get the temperature and try to play hd avi files on your unit and compare the temperature. Even though it's not that high i will not add more heat in playing HD files. Just compare in playing HD files in your computer you can notice how high your CPU utilization rather than playing standard avi files.
As i said how can you enjoy HD movies mkv if your scalet don't support does HD movies audio like ac3, DD, DTS 5.1.
Just my 1 cent.

thanks xrampage.i was thinking of buying yung xtremer na player pero napapaisip ako na ps3 nalang.since nkakaplay rin naman yun d ba..:)

Try comparing a movie (Matroska) with DTS and a movie(Divx) MP3 audio that's the time you will see the difference. PQ also of the Divx against the PQ of matroska movie. As i said for me i experience this and i don't want to go back on watching Divx with MP3 audio. ;D :o
What you think in the long run will go more the LH70 that use the internal player (USB) in playing Divx or the LH70 that connected via HTPC HDMI in playing HD and DVD movies?

Hi to all LG Scarlet Owners with the Flickering problem....
I talked to Joel Canoy and he said that it's not a firmware issue but rather a "misuse" of the input .... etc..., he said he also talked to somebody here in pinoy dvd and requested to post the solution. Going thru the thread, what I saw are "workaround" and not exactly a fix. I've requested for a better explanation thru email...
Those experiencing the problem, appreciate if you can update as well.. thanks.
-
If that is Joel Canoy's or LG's answer to the issue at hand, then I am really disappointed at how they are planning to respond to it.
Better yet, ask him to describe/document the "misuse" that he is referring to. If he does really understand the misuse that he is talking about. As the current setting that works best for me is the setting that produces the issue in question. How can this be a misuse in this case? I still believe that it is still a problem in their programming (firmware) that leads to the said issue. If they cannot correct the firmware execution sequence, then they are really dxxxb.
By the way, is it the "EyeCare = ON" and "Picture Mode = Natural or Sport" that causes the flickering? As other settings worked just fine.

FYI... saw in S&R today 32 scarlet going for 27989 free wall bracket at 50% off daw on any home theatre...
also saw a 42inch scarlet... pardon my poor memory but parang 66989 naging 63989 with free hometheatre na HT554... mura na ba ito?
sales is till this sunday at all S&R...
-
kung yan yun 42LH70YR, mura na yan, lalo na free yung HT554 ;D
-
murang mura nga yung 42lh70... free yung ht :D
-
Hello, ano po yung S&R?
-
S&R is a warehouse-type superstore, similar to Makro. AFAIK, it used to be known as PriceSmart.
-
do u still need a membership pra mkapasok s S&R?
-
sorry guys... my poor memory prevailed as I went back today to S&R to buy more stuff and double checked the 42LH70YR pricing and found it is 69989 down to 66989... not 63989... pero free nga yung ht554...
price of 32LH70YR is still 27989... free wall bracket only... 50% off on any HT
-
where is S&R located?
-
got a new 32LH70YR at S&R yesterday... stocks are depleting very fast. I inquired about the HT at 50% promo and was told by two reps handling LG there that the promo is specific for HT554 only and not any HT. Just double check na lang po. I may be wrong about this. And yeah the 42 incher is really tempting kaso our room is quite small for that.
@emz8 yes you still need somebody with membership to be able to purchase at S&R. meaning kahit friend mo lang member you can buy naman, just tag your friend along.
@znj there are S&R branches at The Fort, at Alabang, at Muñoz, and at Macapagal Blvd.

and also i have contacted back customer care for atleast already thrice but still they always tell me that no report from the technician yet, but the technician told me that he has already ordered new panel for my unit. nawawalan nako pasensya sa lg kasi talagang nakakasakit ng ulo buti sana kung pulot lang pera eh. ang vertical line na yan eh kagabi lang nagpakita .

i hope in any way this thread has a LG representative to address my concern and help me replace or anything. Because honestly im a LG avid customer until this.

We used an HT554 for the Pacquiao-Clottey fight. Great sound and great bass for its price. :)
Wait, so you can use the HT to act as speakers for cable tv viewing?
-
^^^ Yup. Just get a a pair of RCA cables (red and white), connect one end to the TV's AV out and the other end to your HTIB's AV In. And usually, set the HTIB to AUX, and you can use the HTIB's speakers as the main sound output for TV viewing.

last day of sale in S&R is tomorrow... wondering if it is still worth it to get the 32LH70YR even with reported problems with some units (which as far as I've read in some post, LG has failed to properly address).
Also, according to e-reply, LG is discontinuing the 32LH70YR... would this even pose as a bigger problem down the road if something goes wrong with the unit? things like "wala ng piyesa kasi di na modelo yan..." may happen?!?!
-
Does S&R accept deferred payments s 32LH70? nagtanung kc aq s SM appliance Harrison just now sbi may padating daw n stocks b4 mag end ang month kaya d nmn cgro iddiscontinue and 32lh70. tnx
-
@dmag10 - I agree with you bro, kailangan palitan yan ng LG. By the way , ano ang manufacturing date ng lg 32lh70yr mo?
-

I think this will not happen naman kasi di ba may mga units pa which their manufacturing date was January or February 2010, then LG's support is 1 year warranty on parts and services. So if ever they stop manufacturing this model, they still have to have replacement parts up to the latest manufactured units within the span of 1 year.
-
I went to Abenson a while ago and visit their new items on display. I salesperson told me that LG is already facing out the LH70 series, sad to hear right? Oh well I guess as far as parts replacement is concerned it's not a big problem, because I guess some parts like for example LCD Panel for LH70 are also being used for other models making it available for replacement and repair purposes. The only thing I can see that will not be available for replacement of parts is the body/casing itself (HAHAHA!)

Hello Guys. I have been a few weeks lurker in this thread. I received my love 32lh70yr-ta few weeks ago. My question is about the firmware. When I checked the firmware, this is what it showed: BOOT: 01.01, APPR: 04.14. So which version is my firmware? the one with BOOT or APPR? Sorry for asking such a noob question. ???
-
Hi folks,
do we have any list of significant improvements on the newer firmware? AFAIK you can brick your TV if you screw the update up right? BTW just tinkered with my settings on Expert2, the typhoon859 setting is getting boring hahaha... so far so good, based it on the CNET calibration settings (by David Katzmaier). a little on the warm side. The typhoon setting is on the cool/very bright side. Images dont pop out like the typhoon setting though but its working for me. ill post the settings if anyones interested.
-
Can you please post the settings. Thanks. ;D

hi newbie here. I just got my 32" scarlet last saturday, during S&R sale, for P27990 with free wall bracket. (straight payment through credit card)
Manufacturing date is Feb 2010. I haven't tried to simulate yet the flickering issue other owners shared here but I will when I have the time. As of now, i'm still looking for the calibration settings to use for my new toy. :D
-
I've been checking out this tv for months. are their still problems with the tv? i saw one at sm appliance store MoA for 30k cash, but browsing through this thread i see better deals ;D

If that is Joel Canoy's or LG's answer to the issue at hand, then I am really disappointed at how they are planning to respond to it...............................
Just got a call from Mr. Joel Canoy this morning. LG already had a new firmware that is suppose to correct the previous flickering issue. Although the schedule for the firmware upgrade today was postponed to early next week. As I have requested them to bring a small capacity UPS (I believe 300VA to 500VA will do) when doing firmware upgrade so as not to have the possibility of bricking my TV. You do understand that we still have power shortages/power fluctuations at this time. Let me know if any of you guys have their TV's firmware upgraded by LG.

So are they doing this upgrading service for free or do we have to pay for something? Sir Phoooh Thank you, because you're the who keep on pushing this issue and keep on touching with LG with our concerns...

Of course this is and should be free. Altho I didn't get any confirmation from Joel. I am definitely not going to pay them anything for correcting this flickering issue.

how do i avail this? i would like to have my firmware upgraded as well

Our firmware is version 3.15 and is affected with the flickering issue. I don't know what is the new version that will be provided for the upgrade. It seemed that some new units manufactured on Jan 2010 and onwards are using firmware version 3.25.
Better to take note what firmware version your unit have. Back read the pages of this thread to determine your firmware version.
If you are affected, you can call LG Customer Hotline that came with the documents of your unit.

ok na napalitan na ng buo yung panel mismo about 4 days ago na......

Did they as you to pay for something? (Service, parts and the like). Damn! Because lately I'm noticing some minimal imbalance in the backlight distribution of my unit (noticed on plain color display) I'm not sure about it, or maybe I'm just getting too paranoid about my unit...
-
averaging around 10 hrs of usage a day (PC monitor din kasi). so far so good. *crosses fingers* :D

Update - LG Service Personnel went to our place yesterday and checked my unit. He reset the settings by "shorting" the AC Power Plug - I mentioned to him that problem will recur if you change the picture settings to natural, sport mode... it appears that there is a miscoordination between their Field Service and Customer Support as I have a previous arrangement with their Customer Service to have my units FW upgraded.
Anyhow, the same tech returned today and upgraded it from 3.15 to 3.26 - I'll check the unit and see if there are other "improvements" when I get home tonight.
Any feedback from other users who'se FW have been upgraded?
-
An LG Technician came to our house at noon today. Firmware was upgraded from 3.15 to 3.26. Tried again the flickering issue, fixed finally.
Do note that they didn't bring with them a UPS. I reminded him to do so. Luckily there was no power fluctuation nor brownout during the upgrade. In case of a bricked LCD TV, LG will need to replace a circuit board. I don't want this to happen to any of us.
I believe there are those with manufacturing dates Jan and Feb 2010 with firmware 3.25. I believe we still haven't gotten a concrete response whether these have flickering issues as well. So I cannot confirm whether these owners will need to have their firmware upgraded.

Good for you, I'm hoping to get in contact with LG after this holy week for a firmware update
Although I haven't experience the flickering issue myself or at least try simulating it, the issue I had is the regarding the Expert1/2 which was also discussed in this thread. Did the firmware update solve this issue?
-
@Ppoooh
Nice i will also call LG for my unit to upgraded to 3.26 FW. Free ba yung service ng FW upgrade?

hello 32lh70 owners, would you still recommend this lcd even you have experienced problem(s) with it? It seems binabalik ulit ito sa mga appliance stores. Last night, meron sa SM San lazaro for P29900 cash/straight. Tempted to buy this for my PC/PS3... nakalagay sa likod Manufactured(?) date: March 2010... I dont know the firmware version though...
My coworker warned me of LG brand lcd tv, sa experience nya they conked-out or malfunctions after the warranty but that is for his old LG lcds not for this unit though...

If I am not mistaken, the 32LH70YR is a premium model. Unlike the other entry level and mid-level models like 32LH20, 32LF20, 42LH50, etc. The original srp price of this unit is php49,990.00. It was on sale down to its current price. I suppose the materials and components used in this model is way much better than the entry and mid-level models. I hope that this is so.
-
Hi Ppooh,
Have you tried the Expert1,2 settings if it was fixed by the firmware? Or did you have the problem in the first place?
-
Have you tried the Expert1,2 settings if it was fixed by the firmware? Or did you have the problem in the first place?
I have tried the Expert 1 setting and the H & V Sharpness. It seems that there is no abnormalities when I set each to 100 and changed the Picture mode to another and back to Expert 1 setting again. Moved the H & V slider from 100 down to 50 and back up to 100. Seemed like there was no sudden abrupt changes in picture sharpness. Couldn't really confirm this as I am not really familiar with this issue.
If you are on version 3.15, better have your unit firmware upgraded as well. So that you could thoroughly test the H & V Sharpness issue that you were referring to.

Can you check the fast seen with true motion low and high if there are abnormalities. I seeing some abnormalities with my current firmware 3.15. I notice that fast scene is so fast when i on true motion low or high i hope this will be fix by the FW upgrade. I will call LG tom for appointment after holy week so that my unit FW will be upgraded.
-

Trumotion LOW and HIGH is dependent on the source material resolution (480p, 720p or 1080p), fps (50fps or 60fps) and video bitrates (for mkvs). There are some that works and some that don't. You have to test it on the source material whether setting to LOW or OFF would be best. I usually use LOW setting if I need Trumotion. But if I do find some abnormalities, I would change the setting to OFF. These are all on my previous firmware version 3.15. I don't make use of the HIGH setting.
I don't know whether there will be improvements with the new version 3.26. I am not expecting improvements on this anyway.
If you can check different websites. Interpolation of scenes for motion is never perfect whichever technology each manufacturer uses.
I only like Trumotion at LOW if I want to see people on scenes walk smoothly. Not really good for fast motions, in which case I prefer to turn it OFF instead. Hope this helps.
Haven't seen what 240Hz Trumotion could do.

Just got my LH70YR from Remal last night...28,500 with free wall bracket...
Did some minor testing on the unit (really basic tinkering) as I am not very good with the techy stuff...
Just noticed that while watching the DVD of New Moon, picture quality appears to be camcorder-like...I don't know how to explain it but it feels like the movie was shot using a camcorder...
Changed the AV setting from Vivid to Cinema and it got darker but less camcorder-like feeling...
Checked other TV channels and there's still a slight camcordery effect to it...
Is it just me who gets this feeling? This is my first LCD and I'm not sure if LCDs are really supposed to be like that.

Sir it is bcoz a DVDRIP has low resolution and an LCD has a high rosolution(main cause of pixelation yan) that is why it feels like it was shot in a camcorder and our cable channels is still not broadcasting tru HD execpt for some channels of SKY HD and cignal HD. If you still want to watch DVDRIP just buy a wd tv live or xtreamer bcoz they can upscale and will make DVDRIp better looking but not as much as watching a 720p or 1080p bluray rip. But the better choice would be the 720p since you have a 32" LCD and there are no significant difference in watching1080p over 720p in an 32" LCD. Still you nid to buy a media player for playing MKV files. Just a suggestion.
-
Nah. He just has 120hz TruMotion on ;D
Just turn it off via menu @tyts.

^ agree, tru motion is just on.. this is what I like in this unit. ;D

matanong lang bro ano phone number ng lg customer hotline? do they service provincial lg owner? tnx :)

thanks @yesyes and @vx2 for the inputs...turned off trumotion and so far ok...
another question, when i change channels, normally there is a black screen in between. on this black screen, i see light horizontal bars going up or down...is this normal or is it supposed to be totally black? this horizontal bar moving is also sightly seen when the channel picture is being shown already...
(to better understand what i am saying, when you watch a movie and in the scene there is a computer, you can see horizontal movement on the computer...i don't know what this "phenomenon" is called...)
i don't notice this when watching dvd movies...is this because of the cable connection? i am a sky subscriber...
sorry if i'm being paranoid...i'm just being OC within the 7-day warranty (replacement) period...:)
-
hmnn.. parang gusto ko din ito ah.

(to better understand what i am saying, when you watch a movie and in the scene there is a computer, you can see horizontal movement on the computer...i don't know what this "phenomenon" is called...)
This is normal. Reminiscent of the old movies wherein the scanning frequency is multiples of the 60Hz AC line for the old movie cameras used to shoot it with. This is more common for old movie cameras used here in the Phils (same 60Hz I suppose). Therefore for new movies/new cameras, they usually increase the scanning frequency (to solve this problem) so as not to produce a horizontal line effects when watching a computer or TV "CRT monitors" in the movies.
I believe you can reproduce this phenomenon when you use an old video camera. I have encountered this when I did use my Sony Video8 camcorder. I suppose this is what you are referring to.
-
Thanks @Ppoooh...
I compared with my parents' LCD (Sony Bravia) and it doesn't have this horizontal line effect in black screen when in cable TV mode... (we're connected to the same cable provider)
I also observed in LH70YR there is a jerky movement (left/right) of the screen when watching cable TV...quite annoying...you can easily spot this when you focus on the channel logo (eg. HBO) and you would notice it moving left and right...
I guess it's time to consult an LG technician... :(

I saw this at SM Fairview a few days ago. Sa SM Appliance Center near the grocery. If I'm not mistaken, 39K daw pag card.
Ganun ba talaga? Parang ang mahal naman ng 10K difference between card and cash. I'm also eyeing to buy this.

Sa totoo lang wala naman talaga 0% kahit anong product bilhin mo sa 12% installment price kasama na yung interest dun. Ganyan talaga 10k ang add sa mga mall pag 12 months deffered payment. :)

In fairness, 0 percent naman talaga. Kasi usually, kahit straight charge ang gamit mo, same price siya sa 12 months installment. Kung cash lang naiiba. Credit card surcharge yung lumalabas at tinatago nila sa "cash discount".

Wala na bang issues yung bagong manufacturing dates (feb and mar 2010)? Plan to buy for the bedroom.
-
wait muna ako bago mag-paupdate ng fw, naka feb 2010 naman ito nabili kay reloader fw 3.25, I'm not too picky naman, puro tv lang gamit.
-
Just checked the firmware version of my 42LH70 and its already on 3.26? Is this the latest one? BTW manufacturing date is Feb 2010 afaik..
I do have a question, sabi sa manual is that True Motion is applicable except for PC Mode? Are they referring to RGB cable connected to pc or is it any type of connection whether it may be via DVI/DHMI basta PC, hindi applicable ang True Motion?
Another question, If I turn the PC on, in which my LH70 is connected via HDMI, the TV itself turns on automatically, is this what the refer to as simplink? kasi pagkaka alam ko gumagana lang yung simplink kapag same LG components lang.. or I may be wrong.
-
i just got my lg 32lh70 yesterday..
i connected it to my pc thru vga, when i watched my hd downloaded videos on youtube,
i'm not satisfied w/ the picture quality..soft ung picture,,hindi masyadong detailed yung images..
any suggestions how to fix the picture settings?,, :)
-
paano ba malalaman kung ilang hours na nagamit ung unit(lg 32lh70)?..
TIA,, :)
-
Just bought one.. and very happy with it. Dito sa PinoyDVD ko nalaman about this LCD, and since last year pa ako naghanap.. waited for 4 months.. and now I am a happy owner of one!
Bibili na sana ako ng Samsung series 3 or the Sanyo at 22k... buti nalang pinigilan ako ni misis nung pasko.
FW 3.26. just checked now.
Binili ko din pala yung HT na kasama.. worth na din siya for 10k (reg price 20k).. It complements the LCD.
-
just got mine updated late this evening. How do you access the firmware version?
Aside from the other issues, one immediate improvement is the lag that occurs when the TV is on without any live sources.

I disagree i bought my LCDTV straight card swipe @26999 that time. Cash and straigth card payment yung 26999 and 12 months @39999. Kaya ko sinabi na wala naman talaga 0% interest even sa ibang appliances center same price and cash and straight swipe sa card. ;D ;D ;D

It depends on your dealer's warranty. If it's 7 day replacement, then maybe you should go with replacement. `

Just checked my relative's LG 42LH70 here in the province, bought sometime last Dec 2009. FW version is 3.15 also and has the same "flickering" issue just like that of a 32LH70. This will need FW upgrade as well. Hope that the local authorized LG Service Center (here in Legaspi City) know how to do the FW upgrade.

That's a sale at robinson not their original price. Di naman ata nag sasale ang mga PDVD seller like those mall appliance store. ;D ;D IIRC updated price at 2999 cash/straight card swipe and 39999 12 months to pay. ;D ;D ;D

Just checked my relative's LG 42LH70 here in the province, bought sometime last Dec 2009. FW version is 3.15 also and has the same "flickering" issue just like that of a 32LH70. This will need FW upgrade as well. Hope that the local authorized LG Service Center (here in Legaspi City) know how to do the FW upgrade.
They did. Seems they just email a .exe program that automatically flashes the USB stick to become bootable once the plugged in. ;D
-
san ba merong 27k nito ;D..eto na talaga gusto ko after looking around and reading up PDVD.
-
Guys san pa available ang unit na to? Sabi ng SnS discountinued na raw tong model na to
-
I don't think its true na discontinued na ang model na to kse since nung napost na discontinued na daw....continous pa rin ang arrive ng March 2010 manufactured na LG32LH70...check mo sa mga SM appliances center...dami pa, normally its on a 5 day order basis. 29,999 w/ free wall mount kapag straigt payment sa cc and Cash. Pag deferred payment..lalabas na 39,999.
think...he's just dont have an allocation to sell that unit.
-
Baka hirap lang kumuha ng stocks. Pwedeng discontinued kasi yung LH20 na kasabay ng LH70 talagang inuubos na nila so probably may mga new batch na darating. The bigger appliance stores just probably have more stocks in their own warehouses or have priority in booking especially because of the renewed interest after he price drop.
-
I still see it in SM cubao and sa the Block :D My firmware version is 3.26. Manu is March 2010. I bought this 1st week of April. So far so good. Connected my elite xbox 360 and ps3 via hdmi and playin time from 6 to 8 hours. loving and enjoying this lcd :D
-
sensya na baguhan lang ha?
what's the difference ba on the firmware versions?
-
Me alam po ba kayo na shop na nag bebenta nito @ 27-28k? and nag bebenta na rin sa ng C10 para ma compare ko :D
-
Guys, I heard that you can play movies via the USB. Anong format ba ang compatible talaga? I've backread this thread... some said it can play mkv format, others said it can't. For sure, it can play divx, right? Can someone confirm? I'm finally getting my own Scarlet next week. Happy! ;p
@karmen
Try Remalsales bro. They have the unit for 28k. Yun nga lang, online seller sila. They will deliver the unit to your house for free. If you're planning to test the Scarlet with other units side by side, then I guess you're better off to go to the malls.. most SM Appliance stores still have them. Yun nga lang, 29,999 ata ung selling price.
@bunnygod
Baguhan rin dito bro, but from what I've backread, the earlier firmwares had technical problems. Flickering issues ata. The point is that it was fixed in the latest firmwares, so its better to get the unit with the latest fw.

Yes, natively LH70 can play divx...
Regarding playing mkv format... Yes there's a way to play it however your unit should be EUROPEAN models/units. In our case for we're only getting Asian models/units.
-
^Aww, that sucks. Thanks for the info, sir.
-
got my unit back... they replaced it with a new panel.. from a stuck pixel. I noticed that the colors on this new panel is so much better than the panel that came with it. . now happy xD
-

You can always just go to an appliance store to compare then get from the cheaper dealer.

As i always says why you like to play Matroska format of movies at your LH70 if you can't enjoy the audio that is DTS, AC3 or DTSHD/DTSMA. The audio of the TV is only Mono and setereo only. I even don't think playing divx file since i think i will give more heat on my unit.

27,990 sa Rob galleria, with free Genius "hamburger" speaker. ;) less 500 pesos pa pag may Cebu pac boarding pass ka. free wallmount na din. an officemate got this a while ago.

glad to see a lot of people are still interested and enjoying this lg tv. i have been watching HBO's The Pacific in HD through my x360 on my 32LH70 and i freakin' love it! seeing human parts blown off in detail is awesome! haha.

i dont see any flickering issues. minor lang. like sometimes walang sound. all i have to do is turn off/on the hdmi player and ok na!
-
can anyone suggest a good calibration setting?
-
any update on the price of this lcd? di pa rin me nakabili, kasi kala ko maglalabas na ng 2010 models and lg. since wala naman at baka mahal pa din, i'll buy na talaga last week of may. at kahit pa sabihing phased out na daw to, who cares? hehehe..as long as it has a warranty di ba..
-
hindi pa din ako nakakabili. should i still get this or wait for a new model to come out?

Hello,
I am the proud owner of this Television, but there is something that has been driving me mad in the last few days...
I want to connect my PC to the television to use it as an HTPC. I have a DVI output on my graphics card, so I bought an HDMI-DVI cable and connected it to DVI-1 on the TV. For the sound, I used a regular cable (the sort you use for earphones or desktop speakers) from the onboard sound connector to the connector on the television which is labled "AUDIO IN (RGB/DVI)".
The picture is fine, but there is no sound.
When I disconnect the HDMI-DVI cable and just leave the audio cable, there is sound.
How do I solve this? Isn't the HDMI input setting supposed to work this way?
There's a scan from the user manual for the configuration I am using:

Sincerely,
Boaz
-
Kailangan you have to decide somewhere somehow.. kase lagi meron lalabas na bago.
Yan din dilemma ko before, but I think the price and feature of this unit is good. Kaya bumili na ako.
Kase baka naman sa kakaantay ko ng mas bago.. hindi ko na na-enjoy manood sa isang LCD TV.. and still use the old school CRT>
hindi pa din ako nakakabili. should i still get this or wait for a new model to come out?
-
Prices have been going down, the Pana 32S10 is now just 23+ thou. I wonder if this one's better than the LG?

I was at SM Dasmarinas yesterday and saw LG 32LH70 (demo unit) at Appliances Center. Last unit na daw yun and for sale at P39,990 less P10K. Pa-reserve ko na sana dahil according to some posts here malapit nang ma phase-out ang model. Then naalala ko na may nag-post din na mas mura daw sa Robinsons. So punta kaagad ako sa Rob Dasma to compare the price. Tama nga sa Rob for sale at P39,990 less P12K with free wall bracket, 2 brand new/sealed and 3 demo units ang available. Nagpa-reserved kaagad ako kahapon dahil alam ko di na available ang model in other areas. Pinabuksan and pina-test ko na yung isang brand new unit then paid the down payment. Ang malupit, I was able to get additional discount and will only pay a total of P26K :) :D ;)
Sunduin ko na ngayon ang TV ;D ;D ;D
-
^ torque -- how 's your LG LH70YR? very good deal yang nakuha mo :D I got mine at 29k bundled with a HT before at sm cubao. Sa ngayon, no stocks na sa sm cubao. Buti nalang kumuha na ako before. So far ok naman yung lcd as of now. My kids are playing xbox 360 at 4 to 6 hours with this lcd. Me and my wife naman, use this to watch dvds for at least 2 to 3 hours din. Still very happy ;D . Sana lang di mag ka problema ...
-
mga Sir patulong naman po... lh70yr user, ano po magandang picture settings nito? thx in advance.
-
donnamay, boddah posted his recommended picture setting on page16.
@natzi, after a week wala naman akong nakitang major problem sa unit ko. Minor issue lang regarding sa "no signal on HDMI connection". Good thing I found the post of tutunx on page15 and read the messages of the other fan boys , turn-off lang pala ang SIMPLINK function. We are using the LCD 5-8hrs a day watching tv, playing Wii and viewing movies on WDTV Live. My initial connection is via composite lang pero labas na kaagad ang ganda ng colors ng lcd (comparered sa crt tv...hehehe). Then I connected my WDTV Live via HDMI, napa-WOW talaga ako sa ganda ng picture and colors! First movie na pinanood namin yung Disney's Dinosaur, vibrant ang colors at kitang-kita ang skin details ng mga dinosaurs. Yung 2 kids ko ilang beses na napanood ang movie before pero full attention sila habang nanonod, super ganda daw! Next namin pinanood yung Avatar (720P, 8GB mkv version), again same WOW effect the whole time watching the movie. Dito ko rin napansin ang effect ng Trumotion, may mga scenes na life like ang movement ng mga characters. According to wifey, the best daw ang purchase namin and all worth it ;D ;D ;D
May additional Philips clock radio freebie (worth P700) nga pala na binigay sa akin when I got the unit last Sunday :D
-
heard na pa-phase-out na 'to. Sayang, walang budget talaga ngayon so di ako makakabili. Baka lang, may maabutan pa akong unit in 3 months time! :)
-
can i join the club? I was scouting for a sub 20k 32incher LCD (lg ld310 or pany c10), went to Robinson Otis, lo and behold saw the elusive(?) LG 32LH70YR on display. I asked the sales guy if they still have a bnew stock, meron pa raw 2, so I checked the unit. So I decided to get the unit kahit way over my budget hehehe. got it for 27900.
-
hanep! naka LCD na si Torque... ayuz pre!
-
mga sir's... any idea who has the cheapest 42lh70 and is the firmware 3.26 na (to dodge the flickering issue i read about this model)... thanks
-
hanep! naka LCD na si Torque... ayuz pre!
Pau, ikaw ba yan?
Nagkaroon ng budget kaya bumili na ako nung may nakita ako sa Robinson ;D
-
just bought my 42LH70 at SnR for 49,990. i'm really happy with it and i haven't experienced the flickering issue but i haven't checked my fw version yet also.
-
nakita ko nga at SnR and i tried to look for the firmware at the back but couldn't see the firmware... saw the Jan 2010 manufacturing date... whats was the date stamped on your purchase bro?
-

wasn't able to get the manufacturing date but the fw is already 3.26. :)

mas ok ba ito kaysa sa 32lh35?
-

bro... saan nakalagay yung firmware version? thanks

Sa likod, yung pinakamalaking sticker, malapit sa mga A/V IN, etc. jacks.
-
thanks bro... planning to get this one before it dissappears...
-
mga bro I was able to scout a scarlet 32LH70 at harrison plaza workstation two units still available. but its selling at 28999. Is this really a worth the cash? I still in doubt if ill go for a newer model or grab one of this btw manufacturing date march 2010.
-
My wife got me an LH70YR from SM appliance sa north edsa main. Yung display unit na kasi ang hirap na maghanap ng sealed unit. Php29,990 straight charge.
Tested it with a few SD sources... panalo. Yung BD-rip na Alice in Wonderland DVD @480p ang smooth ng picture plus yung distinct flow pa ng 120Hz TruMotion...it's hard to beat -- SD pa lang yun.
Sa HD naman Star Wars 2 @ 720p pa lang natetest ko super smooth ng picture. Sarap manood ng clear picture + judder-free motion.
1080p? Di ko pa kayang mag play ng ganon hehe. PC hardware limitation kaya tumitirik ang VLC. Wala rin akong NMT. I know what I need though...and of course, I know what I'm missing pag di ko to nakitang mag render ng 1080p.
-
is this unit still available?. checked SM Appliances at MoA 2 weeks ago. the lady said they won't be getting the unit anymore. :'(

Guys pasali dito, I have bought the same unit (LG 32LH70YR) with hometheater system (HT805PM) here in Bacolod priced P38,890. So far satified ako sa performance but one thing, meron akong tanong tungkol sa USB mode nya.
I have some movie files that has black bars top/bottom of the video. I know merong option regarding aspect ratio sa control menu natin. (16:9, zoom, cinema mode, etc.) but noticed that I cannot access the "q. menu" on the remote control if I play files thru USB.
I can only access the "q. menu" or the "picture menu" kung nasa TV mode ako or if naka connect ako sa HDMI papuntang dvd player. So ang tanong, is there a way I can access the "q. menu" or the "picture menu" if I playing movies thru its built-in USB? I tried setting it by default (lets say cinema zoom1) but whenever I play files na sa USB, it changes back to its original aspect ratio of the file. Nakaka-inis kasi that I cannot zoom-in or change aspect ratio while using its USB.
I do have the home theater system which includes the dvd player but the thing is yung usb port sa dvd player nya makaka basa lang ng fat32 system, so walang silbi yung usb port nya kasi all my movies are in a 320gb harddisk, so yung magandang option ko lang talaga is to use the built-in USB port of the HDTV.
Anybody experienced the same situation?
Sayang naman that I have to use my 16gb flash disk (fat32), use the usb port of the dvd player and set picture to zoom, just to satify the movie that has black bars on top/bottom. Hassle talaga pag ganito yung situation.
-
re: accessing q menu on USB, same situation w/ me on my 42lh70.
Re: fat32 HDD. Is the size limit for fat32 holding you back? You can use swissknife to format large drives to fat32.
re: black bars. Some films are just made larger than 16x9, so that's why we see black bars and its perfectly normal.

You might want to change where your speakers are positioned. Home theater speakers are actually not meant to be all lined up in front on a desk.

Yes, alam ko rin yun kaya lang ung wires ng front and rear speaker hindi masyadong mahaba. Actually we have plans of putting it at the back of our sala set para surround pero baka sa susunod nalang. Excited na kasi eh.
-
Why don't you just buy a WDTV player or Xtreamer rather than use that usb direct on the TV. Remember, it is after all a tv rtaher than a media player.
-
Yes, planning to do so. I've been back reading post here and in tpc about NMT and WDTV, problem is that I'm here in Bacolod. Too few options unless I buy online which I'm not comfortable with. Baka magpapabili nalang ako sa cousin ko sa US.

to bad maybe its a weekend discount they gave. they cut of 12k from the original price of 39,999.00 indicated on the price tag. but lh70's were not included package promo being bundled with an HT at a 9k from orig price of 14k. didn't bother to as ask about the model of the HT unit since i was only interested with scarlet. :o
-
Help, anybody experienced this on their LH70s, garbled colors, vertical line on the middle of the screen.

Already called LG CS, resetting didnt solve it, unit will be serviced by their tech next week. Anybody have an idea what caused this? I just turned off the TV, was working fine, once I turned it on after a few minutes ito na yung result.

just bought one today. bale 3 yung display units nila, facing different directions. yung 2, less 10k ang tag pag cash (so 30k). yung third na sa back side nakalagay, less 12k cash (so 28k). dun ako pumwesto sa tapat ng 28k na tv at nag inquire so 27,990 ang nakuha kong price. when i asked kung bakit less 10k ang nakalagay sa dalawa, sinabi na less 12k na daw talaga for a limited time special promo daw.
so far so good. pero bukas ko pa fully matetest, pag wala nang tao. sa sala kasi nakadisplay. ok naman service, kaso may screw issues ako:
1. ilan ba yung kasamang screw para dun sa kabitan ng base stand at yung parang tinidor? tatlo yung slot para kabitan ng screws. pag open ko sa bahay nakita ko bukas yung plastic na lalagyan ng screw at isa na lang yung natira. plano ko bumalik para humingi ng additional screws. di ko na nadouble check nung binalik yung stuff sa box.
2. mahirap ba talaga iscrew yung tv at yung parang tinidor? di ko mascrew lol. di ko alam kung baka maling set ng screw lang ang napackage.
-
better read the manual pra di ka magkamali. it shld have the exact amount of screws and pairing sizes indicated for the fork (3), back panel(4), pedestal(1) and power cord(1). check mo mabuti before fitting each screws, baka mali nga naibigay sayo.
-
I was really scouting for this model, but wherever i go i get the same "phased-out" or "no stocks" response. Opted to get Panasonic 32C10x2 instead. So far so good naman.
-
i think maling set ng screw nasama sakin. yung 1 screw na tinukoy ko sa post ay yung pure blank na pang stand ata. pero kumasya sya dun sa may base at fork-like thing. meron 7 screws na black and blue pero hindi ko mascrew sa tv tsaka sa base. balik na lang ako sa store tomorrow to double check
-
Yesterday saw one unit at rustans shangrila... nakakatawa nga lang ung demo ay ung karaoke player nila.

i still see a lot of 42's though.

Meron sa power cord? So far nung nkita ko lang sa plastic is 7 screws (with blue tip) then 1 extra screw (dko alam para san) na matulis.

Sino merong home theater na LG HT805PM? Heto kasi yung bundled home theater ng 32LH70 LCD na nabilin namin eh.
yung kasamang dvd player nya kasi paminsan minsan nag hahang/nag frefreeze while watching movies, sometimes it goes back to the menu whether its dvd or thru USB. Random kasi eh, minsan after 10mins of USB playback, sometimes after 1 hour of DVD playback. Hindi naman mainit yung unit. Ano kaya to?
Meron syang upscaler, naka set dati sa 1080p, later changed to "auto" pero ganun parin. So far I have not tested 1080i and 720p settings. Will test later. Do you think its because of the upscaler feature? or defective?

I'd advise asking the store where you got it. If they cannot provide you a solution, return it for warranty replacement.

sa gadgets in style sa trinoma may mga stocks pa ng LH70 32". i just went there kanina. btw, any reviews on LD460?
-
salesman from SM appliance center told me LD460 daw ang replacement ng scarlet. it also has 100000:1 contrast ratio same with LH70. however mas mabilis ata ang motion response ni scarlet at 2.4ms. dunno if it has BT and 120Hz true motion feature also. :P

thanks want to know if others also experiencing it.
-
up ko lang po
please help me.
-
^ I have the same bug with the gamma settings. I guess the only thing that can fix that is a firmware update.
-
thanks sir but how about the 3 secs start up melody do you also experiencing it?
-
^ No, the start up sound is ok on my tv.
-

Maybe sir, better contact LG support. Mine has FW 3.25 I think (I have the 42LH70YR).

bro we have the same manu date and firmware version, so far no problems on my unit compared sa na-experience mo. I bought mine at SM cubao last April. Better call LG, baka defective yung nabili mo.
-
i call LG for my HT and LCD TV i think i got double defective unit :-\
also they will try to reinstall the software.
i hope its not Main board problem :-[
-
Hindi parin makita ng mismong LG ung problem with the unit
di rin nila malagyan ng new firmware kc un na daw ung latest ver.
i think its hardware problem after all. :(

Hi everyone. Proud and happy owner of this awesome TV as well.
Aside from the "pillaring" (backlight spots on the left and right ends of the TV) which only appear on black/very dark screens on high backlight settings, almost everything about my set is a-okay.
I do have 2 minor problems with the set, though. I would like to know if anybody has the same problems and luckily, if anyone here has a solution to these problems. Sorry for the walls of text btw lol.
1.) Faint, very dark green/transparent horizontal bar (about two-thirds of the screen) located at the middle of the screen. Hardly noticeable actually, but gets pretty annoying in the long run. It appears on ANY appliance I hook up to the TV via A/V and component ONLY, my HDMI inputs are completely fine. I've noticed it whilst playing on my Xbox 360. When watching cinematics that scroll up or down, the bar becomes noticeable. Sometimes the dark "bar" moves up or down when something moves on the screen, like if I open the Menu for the TV or if I launch my profile screen on Xbox Live.
At first I thought it might be a ground loop problem, so I used a 3 prong to 2 prong adapter (coincidentally, my multi-switch extension has a removable prong as well). Didn't do any good. Cable interference? Tried moving everything away from my TV set and my Xbox 360. Still didn't do any good.
A temporary solution I've found after going through all display settings is to set the backlight all the way up. The "bar" mysteriously shrinks into oblivion and display looks perfect again. Prob is, it goes back regularly when I turn off the TV or the Xbox 360.
Why I'm going ballistic over this is because my TV isn't supposed to be like this. If I turn the backlight all the way up for the "bar" to disappear, I risk the lifespan of the bulbs and there's also the problem of high electric bills. Anybody know a good solution?
2.) The minor of the 2 problems. This is REALLY weird. I have a Samsung Home Theater (model HTZ220) hooked up to my TV via HDMI (for the DVD output) and whenever I turn my TV on or off, the disc tray ejects and stops halfway or abruptly, like it's getting some kind of signal from the TV controller. This does not happen all the time, maybe 2 out of 5 times I press on the power button on the controller for the TV. It's a bit annoying since I have to stand up, reach for the player and close the damn thing by pushing the tray back in.
Sorry if both problems have been posted already. If they are, already, please point me to the right direction. Anybody here who knows a solution, I need your help. T_T
I think this is my first proper post btw, since my previous posts are concerned primarily and only on selling liquor lol.

Regarding your problem with your tv and your samsung HT, samsung has a feature called "Anynet+" which enables samsung devices to get synched. I have a samsung LED TV and a samsung DVD player. When I turn Either one on, the other one turns on simultaneously. Through this feature, you could also use one remote for your samsung devices. It works thru an HDMI connection. Try to hook em up using a different conn and see if it still happens. If it doesnt, look Anynet+ up on your home theater and turn it off. I think this may solve your issue.

I checked my HT and it doesn't seem to allow me to turn off Anynet+, but I could be wrong. I think you've nailed it sir. I will check again, perhaps there's a way to turn it off.
Many thanks. :)

If I were you, pagbaligtarin mo ang posisyon ng desktop PC at ng LCD TV. Kasi yung fan ng PC, eh bumubuga sa LCD TV. Kung may alikabok man ay pumupunta sa TV. Sa kabilang side kasi ng PC, eh walang fan.
Suggestion lang.
-
Hi mga sirs. I'm really into buying this tv but I can't seem to find anyone who's selling it. Where can I get one for a good price? Thanks in advance! ;D
-
might get the 42inch version. tagal ng 42ld460 eh :(
-
Guys question lang, wala ba talagang audio jack ito for earphones/headphones? Talagang bluetooth lang ang way?
Also, a friend told me they're reselling the scarlet/32LH70YR line pero 60hz na lang (wala nang 120hz Trumotion). To future buyers, make sure to check it out first.

Guys..any updates on our units?
meron na bang latest firmware update ang mga LH70? middle of 2010 they said there going to have an update or so...I hope meron na support for MKV files...
-
Hi:
I read a lot but can´t find anything about these:
I´m trying to see movies with subs saved in SD and conected via USB port in my 32LH70YR.
The problem is that is dificult to read subtitles because small print and very close between characters.
Is there any way to ajust characters type or size?
Will help upgrade firmware?
I have an other question.
Is not allowed post firmware files links?
Greettings
Tony
PD: Mine: 32LH70YR, Boot 01.01, App 03.15

bro, please elaborate.
Is this another classic case of LG's excellent after sales support?
Pasensya na kasi very sensitive ako sa service o trato ng mga kumpanya sa mga customers.
On my part kasi the most important for me when deciding what to buy is the QUALITY and RELIABILITY of the unit.
The quality madali ma-evaluate on the spot, but the reliability is proven through time of use.
And this is where the after sales support comes.
Baka sakit lang ng ulo ibibigay nila.
TIA!!!!!!!!!

Have you guys heard of any issue with this unit overheating that might affect some of the internal parts? Recently kasi I noticed na I sort of smell something burning whenever I turn the TV on.
Also, meron din bang LG Service Center sa Metro Manila?
-
i need help..there's something wrong with my unit. when i turn the main switch on, yung center button (with the illumination) goes from red na paikot and then blue, flickers for a while and then back to red again na paikot and then again with the blue. paulit-ulit lang, all the while no pictures or anything.
sabi nung last na gumamit, she was watching movies/tv series via hdmi then bigla na lang nag-off and then that cycle happened.
any insight as to what happened to the lcd tv? one year and 5 months pa lang namin nagagamit yung tv.
I will call lg phils service center tomorrow to have it checked.
-
update: power supply yung problem. i wonder how much it is..
-
parang sira ung tv controller ko nito.
possible ba na dine-drain agad nung remote control ung batteries? every week nagpapalit ako eh.
and san kaya makakabili ng replacement if ever?

mukhang remote problem na nga.
contact LG nalang
try this (http://www.justanswer.com/sip/LG/Appliances?r=ppc|ga|4|HI+-+Appliances|LG+-+1&JPKW=LG%20service&JPDC=S&JPST=&JPAD=8939683500&JPAF=txt&JPRC=1&JPCD=20110803&JPOP=Cass_BitMoreAnswers_Eighty7&JPMT=b&JPNW=g&gclid=CILKkJ7ZwK0CFWkDQAodrxlZ_g)
or LG support (http://www.lg.com/ph/support/index.jsp) and service centers (http://www.lg.com/ph/general/contact-us.jsp)
-
It seems like your remote have some stuck keys or contaminated. Thus doing another function when a specific button is pressed. Thus the reason why your batteries drained fast. If the remote has an LED lamp indicator near the top, does it light even if you're not pressing anything?
Possible cause is the circuit board or rubber contact pads inside the remote unit is dirty/wet. Maybe previously spilled on. I guess it would be difficult to dismantle the remote to check them. If you've done so, better use an isoprophyl alcohol solution with cotton buds to clean the contacts/rubber pads.
Since LG doesn't usually repair the remote, they would most likely sell you a new replacement remote.

^ thanks bros for the tips.
any idea how much would it cost me for replacement? di ba wala na sa market 'tong model ng TV natin?

Try to ask the LG Service Center for the price of the replacement remote. I suppose you can order from there.
Just like what I did for my JVC CRT TV remote before.

this is a classic thread..anyway until now im still using my lh70...what do you think is a good bigger size upgrade ?
-
Anyone has an idea why the bluetooth will not pair with a oem nokia bh503?
Thanks

Hi guys,
Naranasan nyo na bang biglang mag turn off ung LH70 while watching then mag try siya mag turn back ON, kaso if will fail na.. then my workaround palage is to let it rest for maybe around 15 mins then ok na ulet siya.. Anu kaya solution?
-
Hmm. I have a question. My 2 1/2 year old 32LH70 just suddenly showed this thin black horizontal line. Its prolly around 12 inches long. It dissapeared after a few minutes, then bumalik na with another line just below it, this time in white :/ hindi na sila nawawala even if I turn the TV off. Hindi naman ako heavy user since gabi ko lang nagagamit after work. :( ano kaya problem dito? :/
-
2 years and still going strong mh scarlet! ;D

2 years and still going strong mh scarlet! ;D
Same here! Ang ganda pa rin ng 120Hz TruMotion nya.
Ang complain ko lang may lag yung sound pag TV viewing kaya hindi synch sa bibig ng nagsasalita pero maiksi lang naman yung lag mga 1/2 second lang siguro. Ang weird nga kasi yung audio out nya walang lag pag kinonek sa amp. Di ko tuloy magamitan ng backup subwoofer kasi nauuna yung bass bago yung sound sa TV speakers.
-
after over almost 3 years, naka problema na Scarlett ko... :(
Wala nang picture na lumalabas... just black...
wala pa akong tiwala dun sa service center...
Not sure if its just the supply board or yung module yung may prob....
-
since Jan 2010 still alive and kicking! >:D
-
planning to sell my scarlet na and upgrade. thinking of getting the lg 42ls5700.
-

Reviving this old thread, I'm looking for a 32 inch LCD TV for my studio unit for airbnb purposes.
Someone is offering this to me for 7k.
Is it still worth it or should I look elsewhere?
TIA

It is worth it for 7k, just make sure you get one in tip top shape.
-
Thanks yeah sounds like a good deal but this model is actually kinda old so its difficult to know or check if there are hidden issues. One of the reasons why I'm hesitant.
-
Wow. Its been 10 years. My scarlet is still kicking! Haha
