TV Software (Firmware) Release History is there a list?

Hi All,

As an exercise

Given the issues of some models are having with Apps Menu not loading:

(Update - 10:53 23-10-2018 BST - NOW APPEARS TO BE RESOLVED!)

https://community.sony.co.uk/t5/android-tv/all-streaming-apps-missing-or-not-working/td-p/2524644

I curious if there is a list somewhere: 'Sony' 'Here' or elsewhere. That lists the software (Firmware) release versions and date of release historically?

Why?

I have two Sony TV's KDL-42W805A and KDL-32WD756

I have in the past seen the KDL-42W805A tell me upon switch on there is a new software version to install. That has not happened for a long time! it's on the latest software version for that model as per it's Sony support page and all works OK if a bit slow! (I actually use a Firestick with this as it's a better over all 'Smart' experience!)

But I don't recall such messages on the KDL-32WD756 ! I'm assuming it has updated over the Network at some point, as it on 8.213 version but does not find the current 8.215 version.

So what happened to 8.214 version?

It would be useful to see a time line of software versions release by date and they where they where available via USB method or 'over the network' method.

All you can see on the Sony support pages for each model is the current release and it's date. Would help with for example warranty claims if an issue like the current one 'bricked' your TV and you where arguing with Vendor as to cause!

Any input greatly received.

Hi Steve,

I would suggest getting in touch with Sony Support for further info on this here.
