In most cases, a software update might be necessary for most of the TV TV sets. Picture distortion, picture freezing, audio distortion, improper tuning and so many problems can be rectified by upgrading with the latest software available to that brand TV. Given here is the firmware upgrade procedure of Xoceco LCD TVs. The procedure is similar to Dynex LCD TVs too. Both these brands are Chinese.

This series’ TV chassis provides two software upgrade ports, one is SERVICE PORT, the other is RS232 jack. To use SERVICE PORT, only a USB device is required and the speed is faster, so it is recommended to use the SERVICE PORT. To use RS232 jack, the speed is slower, and more devices are required such as a PC, a set of fixture for upgrade and upgrade software. It is recommended that only SERVICE PORT fails in upgrade, then use RS232 jack.
