ok

It is used for firmware updates. You would have to get them directly from the manufacturer.

Go to this website { http://www.scribd.com/doc/3303213/226-227-232-427-432-527-532-Firmware20Update20Instructions-EN } download the firmware update(right hand side of the web page), save it on USB stick(formatted FAT32 and empty) load it into your TV and follow the instructions carefully. The firmware is windows based, remember. Good luck.

here download this to a blank flash drive

On the site of the company that makes the product you can always find the newest firmware updates. I tried going there myself, but you need to log in. I am not an owner of an Olevia product, so for me there is no need to go past this control.

The login screen to download the latest firmware is found here: http://www.olevia.com.hk/lg_firmware.php

Seems that the company went bankrupt last year and their website (where you would have had to go to download their firmware) is no longer in operation. I think that means you're out of luck, unfortunately :(

I sure wish I had known that before I bought my own Olevia set that needs service now, but at the time I found lots of good reviews of the sets but no news of bankruptcy ever came up.

If your firmware works fine, I won't update knowing that Olevia won't back it up

Try flashing the firmware again.. as long as you have the blue light on the television then that means you still have power.. so you need to re- flash the firmware and it should work..

**Also make sure you are using a windows XP not VISTA** The firmware program only works with windows xp.

I had the same problem with my olevia 242-T11. I flashed it with the wrong firmware and the TV would not even turn on. The blue LED light would still light up and my PC would still recognize a connection when i hooked it up to the USB cable connected to the TV.

I was fortunate to download the appropriate software. The software is called MTK_DownLoad1.exe. I know this is the correct software to use for Olevia 242-T11 and Olevia 237T. I do not know if this will work with other models.

Here is the link to the MTK_DownLoad1.exe

You will also need to install the USB to Serial driver before you are able to use the MTK Download Utility. The USB Driver is located at

BE SURE ONLY TO UPDATE YOUR TV WITH THE CORRECT SOFTWARE OR YOU WILL BRICK IT. I was lucky enough to recover my TV and finally able to upgrade it to the correct firmware but my TV was non functional for about a week and this has been a huge headache and if i could go back in time i would definitely not do it so please ask yourself if its even worth it risking upgrading the firmware of a TV who parent company is reorganizing after declaring bankruptcy.

If you still want to do this, here are the firmwares for all the various Olevia models.
