Colour temperature fault KDL-50W805C, Optical light fault

1. TV goes off with right colour temperature  Expert 1

I turn it off , and, after 8 minutes I turn on the TV... It's gone, it's all bluish.

I have to manually change it in the menu or change to:

Another HDMI

TV

App.

Did two factory resets and I won't do no more!

This is incredible. It's a basic thing. The TV has to retain its color

Configuration. I've never seen anything like this in my entire life!

 

2. The red optical light of the toslink connector for audio on the back of the TV doesn't go off.

I am just wondering if this nice piece of engineering is always online...

Can anyone confirm to me that, after 8 minutes off, the red toslink light goes off on the back of the TV, please?

 

Thank you.

Maybe a more convenient workaround would be to switch to the home menu before turning the tv off?

Now, when turning on the TV, I had the problem that picture mode was set to Standard instead of Cinema Home... so annoyed by this TV...

Unfortunately neither of the folks at home would remember/care to do that.

Don't know. There is a mention of a fix for a "auto picture mode" issue,
but i don't know if
it's about what we are experiencing.

Will you guys download to try?
