Android Recurring Reboot - Sony KD-49X8309C

So for some inexplicable reason, my utterly buggy Sony TV has gone into an endless reboot loop. No specific update I was aware of, just came home to find it rebooting repeatedly. Sony Support about as useful as a chocolate toilet, and the factory resets just won't work no matter how many times I try. Sony's stock line is "out of warranty, book a repair", which is disgusting given it's THEIR fault from THEIR faulty OS "upgrade". Does anyone have any answer to this? Or is this one of those Windows10/Old Laptop situations, where nobody takes the responsibility, and I'm £800 out of pocket buying a new (not Sony) TV?

sounds like the same problem I'm having with my KD-55X8509C (similar model number that was bought about 3 years ago too).

 

It's not the first issue that I've had with a Sony product so i guess more fool me for buying another.

what planet are you on.

I have the same model of TV and carried out the sofware upgrade. Since then , my SONY tv has failed to switch back on.

Had to bin the TV and get a LG one. Much better.
