Hi Guys well the file has been uploaded on the Sony UK website I have downloaded it here at the College here in West London they have a mega fast virgin broadband connection so iv now got it on a USB stick ready for me to upload it to my Kd-43x8307C when I get home from work.
I work in IT services here so we never stop... Lol
All seems good so far, navigating through menus is a lot smoother and the new volume bar is so much nicer. Hopefully my tv wont randomly turn itself on in the middle of the night anymore
I've seen that these files has been posted on the Sony UK website, but the file names seem to reference EU....can anyone confirm if these firmware versions are suitable for UK (e.g. contain YouView etc.)?

Also, the lipsync on youtube is fixed!!
Can you test Grand Tour on Amazon Prime for lip sync as well? This has horredous issues with 5.1 sound.
Yes go for it this file is for whole of EU. It's on the UK site so no need to wait download it stick it in on a USB TV will see the file and it will update it self or you can just wait for the auto update kick in. Upto to you 🤓
