After over a year of trial and error, I finally managed to connect my LG OLED TV to Google Home! This journey was quite the adventure, and I wanted to share my experience in case it helps anyone else facing similar challenges. The Problem: Whenever I tried linking my LG ThinQ account to Google Home, I kept getting a success message, but my TV never showed up in the list of connected devices. I scoured Reddit and support forums for solutions, but nothing worked. Frustration set in as I felt stuck with a seemingly unsolvable issue. The Solution: Here’s what finally worked for me: 1. Reset Everything: I deleted my LG account entirely, uninstalled the ThinQ app, and signed out of LG services on my TV. 2. Start Fresh: I reinstalled the ThinQ app on my phone, created a new account, and changed the region/language settings to the UK. 3. Update TV Settings: On my TV, I changed the country for LG services to the UK and restarted the device. 4. Link Again: After these changes, I linked my TV to the ThinQ app and then added it to Google Home. Miraculously, it worked! The Result: Now, I can simply say, “Hey Google, turn on the TV,” and it responds instantly. It’s a small victory, but it’s incredibly satisfying to finally have this integration working seamlessly. If you’re struggling with similar issues, I hope this story gives you hope. Sometimes, starting over and adjusting regional settings can make all the difference. Happy tinkering! ![]()
