  • I show you how to preform a factory reset (hard reset) without the remote, we will use the buttons on the Sony Smart TV (Android TV version). This should work on most Sony Android TVs.

    My husband tried to fix our tv for hours and he couldn't get it to work. I watched your video and went into the other room with the kaput tv and fixed it per your brilliant video. Now the hubs isn't speaking to me. LOL! I love it when I get one over on Mr. Know It All ! Thank you so much!!!!!

      I am currently having the same problem. After the lights go green, it simply goes back into the boot loop. How do I get round this? Do I simply hold the buttons until it shows reset or do I let go when the green lights come on under the Sony logo?

    Unfortunately, it did not work. I just keep getting the blinking red light 6 times pause then it repeats. I don't understand, I got it to play Netflix for a bit, but I could not get to the home screen to do the factory reset. Now I can't get anything other than the red blinking light. I guess a new TV is the only fix. I am so bummed out. Thank you. I am glad it worked for others.

      Make sure you do this right and give it another try , it took me 2 tries to get the glowing ring then I thought it froze when I did. I shut it off and it would just go to that ring and I thought I had made it worse . Then I left it alone and it finally went to factory reset. After that i did the update and it works better than before . Besides source issues I was having it load into store display mode every time I power on and would have to unplug /replug. This fixed both issues.

    You make it look so easy. I tried this and there’s background music playing.

    Sadly this didn't work for me.
    My Bravia restarts automatically on starting.
    Factory reset is not happening. Even upon pressing home, volume down buttons simultaneously and plugging in doesn't reset the TV but it goes into the restart loop as always.
    Any solution for me?

    Thx you ever so much. I finally got my unit off after several day on due to remote failure. It really seems to be the remote because it is not working after I finally got the tv off, I am operating from the back til my new remote comes in, thx for peace of mind.

    How about just accessing advanced settings. I don't want to do factory reset, just toggle the auto turn-off setting?
