My TV needed a firmware upgrade to get HDMI working. You need to accept EULA's before connecting and updating.

  Can't you just yank the internet connection afterwards? I did a firmware upgrade and just disconnected from the internet right after. I also don't use the built in apps, because let's be honest, compared to an AppleTV, all SmartTV apps are basically garbage. I understand that the AppleTV is somewhat expensive, but it's my baseline for the quality I'd expect from a SmartTV. Netflix on the AppleTV, starts instantly, and you're browsing the content endlessly after 20 sec. Start Netflix on the TV it self, that will take a few minutes.

    Chanced are, they would have "fixed" it for me. By accepting ALL EULA's. iirc, I could accept half before updating. Edit: also, it was a gift.

  On mine I was able to do an offline firmware update by loading the new firmware onto USB flash drive. Was hoping the new firmware would fix a bug in the built-in video player, but it didn't.
