Hi friends, I've an andoid TV box connected to this TV set on HDMI input, all is working OK (including HDMI-CEC,..), only one thing is annoying, at change of picture in TV box (fox example: HTML page in internet brower, movie selection in HBO Go....) info bar on the top of screen is showed.

Is there any way to solve the problem or switch off the bar like TV sets with android have?

To turn the info bar completely off, follow these steps:

Press the [HOME] button on the remote control
Scroll down to 'Settings' and press [OK]
Select 'Channel Setup' and press [OK]
Scroll down to 'Info banner' and press [OK]
Select 'Off' and press [OK[
Then return out of everything.

jumpsuit, thanks for your answer, but my TV (KDL-49XE7096) is not an android TV (only linux) and the mentioned solution is only for higher android models... Or?

I have the Linux model as well and I can’t turn it off. The model is KD-43XE7002 could this be reported to Sony so it could be added in a future update.
