google chromecast setup • Chromecast
may display a common error that prevents an update from ending and locks the device in the process. In certain cases, the device may loop when fetching an update and not leave the "Seeking update" screen, which is stagnant at 0% or other unfinished value. In more serious situations, the Google dongle that turns the TV into smart has chances of getting the screen black after downloading a new package.
Check the connection • Chromecast
is nothing without an active Internet connection, and so is the upgrade procedure. Make sure your home Wi-Fi is on by running speed tests on your phone or computer. Use services such as Fast and Speed Test to check connection status. If there is any signal failure, the update will not complete.
Check power • Chromecast
can be connected directly to the TV via USB port, but this method may fail on branded or unknown old TVs. In some cases, the television may fail to provide electricity or offer the wrong specifications of the USB standard. To avoid possible power failure, always choose to plug your Chromecast into the outlet with the official adapter that comes in the box.
Restore Chromecast • After
you verify power and connection, restore your Chromecast to the factory settings to exit the update screen and re-use. If the device is locked, press the physical button on the device for approximately 10 seconds to force the device to restart. After a few seconds, Chromecast will be ready again. Set up on your Wi-Fi network, as if it were new, and retry the update to check if the problem has been eliminated.
Reconfigure the Router • Lack
of Chromecast accounting with some routers working on the 5 GHz standard may interfere with upgrading. If your router is listed below and is configured for a 5 GHz frequency channel, you need to reset it to the default 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi standard. Thereafter, the update should normally be downloaded on your Chromecast. After the procedure, it is possible to return to the 5 GHz frequency on the router.
