Thanks for this wonderful news... The Trumotion situation was really starting to pick at the back of my mind... I'm still within my return policy as well. I was considering suggesting we put together a group message to LG, however, you have given us all the information we all wanted! Thanks for doing that and sharing your news. I'll stop checking for updates daily going forward . Now all we need is the service menu access and everyone will be as happy as can be!
Does anybody know if the screen for the 65LM6200is as glossy as the 65LW6500? I know the LM7600 have a coating on it to refelct less light. It looks greenish kind of like the anti glare on glasses.

Yes, the screen is glossy. Not as glossy as other screens found in other sets. I'd say it's almost a mix. A dull gloss, if that makes sense. I believe it is equal to the 6500 from my experience, when considering both models.

You did a nice job with the video. Yes, your menu options are different from the options within the menus of the 65. While the 65 has a TruMotion selection, yours does not. Here's a picture of my submenu within the Picture Option menu:
Hey im looking for a new tv for my dorm room.. There are two models that im currently choosing between the lm6200 and Ls5700. would a 40" be too big for my single dorm room? Im kinda leanin towards the 32" version seems to have more features at a cheaper price..Can anyone help me decide
Good morning fellow LG owners! Life's Good! I picked up a 65LM6200 at HHGregg's last night for $2450 so I am a happy camper to say the least! Anyone here been able to get into the service menu on this set yet? I have read the LW6500 thread from beginning to end and gained a great deal of knowledge of the inner workings of that set and was wondering if any of you here have tried to apply any of the tips, hints, hacks, etc. to the LM6200? I also am not seeing the THX mode in my settings menu. Is it the Cinema setting? The user guide says there is a THX mode but not quite sure how to get there. Going from a 62" Toshiba DLP circa 2004, I am almost overwhelmed by the amount of settings and things to play with! Also, does the resolution upscaler come set to on or does it have to be enabled? I saw a menu setting called "Super Resolution" that was set to on and I am thinking that might be it. Standard Def broadcast seems very sharp but then again consider the set I was viewing on previously. I am blown away by the clarity and realism of the set. I am in love with it. The 3d is also amazing! I so much prefer it to Active! No flicker or ghosting AT ALL. When I looked at active sets I found Panasonic to be by far the best of the bunch although there was still noticeable flicker around the perimeter of objects which is something I never see on LG passive sets that I've viewed (the LM7600 and LM6200). Glad to be a member of the "club". I look forward to unlocking the potential of this set with everyone here!
I just received myLG 65LM6200 to replace my Sammy HLT5687s. My first impressions had been awesome. Trumotion gave me a headache.. disabled. Auto environment sensors... disabled. The list goes on and on. If you want a TRUE picture, you pretty much have to disable any post-processing, at the very least, pick the options with the LEAST impact.
What stood out the most disappointing is that "smart" section. Frankly, its stupid. You are force fed these "cards" you cant hide or reorder. Amazon VOD isnt available on 2012 models. theres an ad for k-pop something when you click it says the tv isnt supported. theres no developer mode to "hack" this crap away. I guess the roku stays.
Imagine buying a car, and the seat doesnt adjust, the mirrors dont adjust, the steering wheel doesnt adjust, and the car company says "you can program the radio!"... yea, its like that. Debating a return on this alone. Lack of foresight gives me NO trust in LG's support or improvements.
Sorry to hear of your disappointment. I don't plan to use much besides 3d world, NBA Gametime, Facebook, Twitter and the browser so the Smart TV part doesn't concern me much. The picture is oustanding. The 2d to 3d is pretty good too and the resolution upscaler makes SD look MUCH better than it used to. Overall, very satisfied. Did notice minor clouding in one area of the screen but used the microfiber cloth massage to cure that ill. I will be wall mounting it so I will wait to see how that does. It's been said that these 65" LG edge-lit LED sets lose clouding and flashlighting when wall mounted sometimes. I am not seeing any flashlighting as was reported on many LW6500's so that's good news. Now if I can figure out how to access the service menu I'll be all set!

i can concur on these points. And its been wallmounted... building shelves around it which will have a curtain between them and the tv once completed (floating tv in front of curtains). But if you are going to market "smart" dont be stupid about it
So anyone hack this thing yet? My tivo was hacked, my androids are hacked... I dont mind fixing it myself.
I just went into the store and explained to the sales guy what my scenario was and that if I walked out of their store empty handed I'd be going straight home and ordering a 65LW6500 from Amazon.com. He really wanted to get that business from them and his manager approved $2450 to get the deal done. You just have to ask and if not there is always someone else who will negotiate.
No doubt! I was able to program my Harmony 880 with the remote from the LW6500 and the LM6200. I like the Magic Wand remote but I prefer a standard remote for alot of technical type configuration. I was also able to add the service menu button which when pressed will bring up the password entry window that requires a 4 digit pin to enter the service menu. I have tried the codes for the LW6500 and they don't work. Has anyone been able to enter the service menu in the LM6200 sets? Any suggestions on codes to try? I want to be able to configure and hack this set the way the LW6500 has been done. Thanks!

Hello, Is anyone else dropping connection while watching a movie on the Netflix app? 55LM6200. I'm about 10 minutes in and then it freezes on the Netflix buffering screen. Then I try to back out and the tv goes blank....I have to power off the tv and then it works again.
Which code are you using? When I enter 0413 or 8741 I get a "wrong password" dialog. I can't even enter the service menu much less see one that is greyed out. What model do you have? I am using a 65LM6200. Thanks!
I stand corrected. I thought I tried 0413 before but I did last night and I was able to get into the service menu. Not all options are greyed out but most are. I wonder if using a different code for this year's model would open that up or if it's a key press sequence or something? I would LOVE to be able to turn on THX and THX 3d. The THX settings seem to be very popular with the LW6500 owners. How frustrating!
I purchased this with the thought that it might help me get into the service menu but I didn't really find much in it that helped. I thought I'd share with everyone here in case you can find some use for it. Here is the link: LG 65LM6200 Service Manual
Do you actually own a 55LM6200? I ask because so far, no owners of a 55LM6200 model have been able to locate the TruMotion menu. I see in your post you list all 3 modes. Please confirm your model number for us. I'm guessing you actually own a 65" (65LM6200) model. If it's a 55LM6200, please go to help > software update and confirm your firmware version for us.
Cool, thanks for replying so fast. Sorry about that, I see you were going over the 65" settings. I've got 55" tunnel vision at the moment due to the TruMotion missing issue. I'm currently in a discussion with LG Canada and wanted to confirm as the conversation is getting some attention and someone from their management department is scheduled to call me about this issue. Just wanted to confirm my info is 100% for when we have our call. For all you 55LM6200 owners, I'll be posting the results as soon as the conversation concludes.
Cheers
