The screen on my TV has frozen. Using the remote control makes no difference. The same channel name is in the top righthand corner when I switch on the TV, but that's all. Otherwise, the screen. It happened suddenly, no warning. I can use the remote to switch the TV on and off, but that's all. Can anyone help? Is it a bug?
I've recently heard that this problem occurs with LG LCDs when switched to Channel 9 in Sydney. Weird. Apparently, LG are working on it but they don't know why it happens. There's not much worth watching on Channel 9 anyway, so I've solved the problem by not switching to it.I've recently heard that this problem occurs with LG LCDs when switched to Channel 9 in Sydney.

If yourAmazon Fire TV displays normally but you aren’t able to use any controls, first try troubleshooting the remote. For more information on troubleshooting the remote, go to Can't Pair a Fire TV Remote or Game Controller.
Restart your device. Disconnect the power cord from the back of the device or from the power outlet, and then plug it back in.
You can also use your remote to restart your device. Press and hold the Select Select Button
and Play/Pause Play/Pause Button
buttons at the same time, for about five seconds. Or, select Settings > Device > Restart from the Fire TV menu.
Make sure that you are using the power supply provided with your Amazon Fire TV device. Connect the included power adapter into the power port on the back of your Fire TV, then plug the other end into a power outlet.
For Amazon Fire TV (1st and 2nd Generation), make sure that you are using a High Speed HDMI cable, if needed. The cable should say "High Speed", "1.3", or "1.4" on it. Plug one end of your HDMI cable into the HDMI port on the back of your Amazon Fire TV, then plug the other end into an available HDMI port on your TV. For Fire TV Stick, make sure that you use the included HDMI extender.
If you are using an HDMI hub, disconnect your Amazon Fire TV device from the hub and try plugging it directly into the TV.
Try switching to a different HDMI port on your television. Remember which HDMI port you used to connect your Amazon Fire TV device and switch to the corresponding input channel on your TV.

Turn your TV off and unplug it for several minutes. Remove the batteries from any remote controls that you use for the TV, press all of their buttons, and install fresh batteries. Reset the TV to factory defaults. The universal remote control should not have caused any damage to the TV. If the problem persists, we recommend that you seek service by calling 1-888-237-8289 in the U.S or 1-866-237-8289 in Canada.
I searched high and low on the Internet and finally found a document that led me to believe it was WIFI problem. I reset (switched off and on) the WIFI receiver, and removed/replaced the battery in the remote control and hey presto. it worked and is still working.
About four hours after having freezed an error 09 message came up on the set top display and then everything returned to normal, after an on TV screen message that update had been successful.!?!
No difference in in any operation of the freeview box.
Note to self and other users
DO NOT PRESS OK WHEN ASKED TO UPDATE SET TOP BOX.
Updating the channel tuning does seem to work ok, though I have to vary between where channel 4 can be found - or learn welsh!

3 - turn on the tv from the remote

select the Reset option. Using the right arrow button at this point
will do a hard reset.
5 - Wait a few seconds, turn TV on
6 - you will have to rescan analogue and digital channel but it should be working now.
