My 43" Sony X800E BRAVIA 4K Android TV is a pain in the rear! So frustrating.
In Dec 2018 the frustrating POS, or FPOS, automatically did an uninvited, not owner approved, Android software update. Then the FPOS appeared to no longer be able to receive over-the-air HDTV channels, because the update resets the TV back to Cable vice Antenna for deciphering channels.
I learned this the hard way after dragging the FPOS all the way back to a BB GeekS appointment (when did they become a doctor's office?)
Now, after the Feb 2019 update, like the title says, the FPOS won't reboot at all. It goes into an endless do loop of trying to update AGAIN.
A google search on the same yielded instructions to do a factory reset using the three very small buttons (from top to bottom: Vol up, PWR, Vol down) on the back of the TV. Link was:

So far tonight, the factory reset is in the same endless do loop. But as a bonus at least all apps, settings, and stored channels are now gone. And oh yes, the TV is defaulted back to cable again!! Thanks Sony/Android/Murphy for not just leaving well enough alone, you Clan of Clowns. ARGH!! (My inner pirate, venting steam)
