Hello.
During CES I heard a news that Sony will bring Android 6 (Marshmallow) to the 2015 TV lineup.
General News about Marshmallow on Android TV's
These news are from January.
Had anyone heard something new about this?
I had the same issue. Factory reset solved it.
(re-The_Notorious) I have the same tv as you KD-55X8509C. I updated mine with the usb. I have had no issues what so ever after the update all is working as it should.
Hi Guys well I did my update manually last night London UK on my KD-43X8307 and it went on like a dream.
In fact I'm very happy indeed. TV preformance is better than I expected. I just don't understand why their are still so many complaints after the update from many users.
The TV picture is brighter sharper and alot smother. No lag at all now. Animation is very smooth TV just feels what this TV should be preforming like the money I spent on it.
Btw SERIOUSLY DO A FACTORY RESET AFTER SOFTWARE UPDATE!!!!
This works the same way as a mobile phone with Andriod if you don't you may have bugs left behind in the cache and bug left behind mixed in the old software.
By doing a clean install or factory reset you are formatting the Harddisk so no crap or bugs will linger they are wiped so please all listen to advise and for once Sony are correct you will get the very best out your TV by doing a format aka factory reset!.
So it takes alittle longer by redoing your settings it's upto you. Want a TV that performs at its best...????.
I know what I'm talking about I work in I.T services at a college and most of my life..
since iv updated no matter what i change i cant get spmc or kodi 17 to change resolution to 3840 x 2160 as any 1 had the same problem ?????? was fine since update and factory reset.

Dear all and especially @Kuschelmonschter
I have noticed a post on the German forums about (translation issues aside):
"It is already interesting that the Sony gurus in German and English forums hide, if Sony a large update freigibt."
Please let me take explain the reason why I and other 'Experts' have been seemingly missing this week. It is not that we are hiding.... But more the fact that this Marshmallow firmware update happened to be released at the exact same time that forum 'experts' and some Sony Staff have an annual meetup. This meetup is aimed for Experts and Sony to meet with each other as well as Sony providing some training and information on upcoming products etc.
Things will quickly get back to normal now.
Thank you
Hi Guys and Girls.
Since I started this thread more than a year ago, it's time to post my experience with Marshmallow update.
My first opinion about Marshmallow on KDL-50W809C is bittersweet.
Updated my TV over USB and done factory reset too.

@Anonymous: Should I report this bug to Hungarian support, or can You escalate it from here?
Can you reply back on whether this double info banner is
I can report it from here. I actually spoke to a very lovely bloke over the last couple of days who is dedicated to product quality and user experience - however the more information you guys can provide, the quicker/easier they can replicate the issue and potentially roll out a fix. The photos are great by the way ! But if you have any further info, please add too.
Cheers
@Anonymous My set has not yet been updated - phew!
Can I assume you are monitoring the status of the issue and will report back here whwn it is fixed and restarted.
Thanks for your support here.
