To update your TV using your phone, you can follow these general steps:
  1. Ensure that your TV and phone are connected to the same Wi-Fi network.
  2. Check if your TV supports firmware updates over the network. You can usually find this information in the TV's user manual or by visiting the manufacturer's website.
  3. On your phone, open the app store (Google Play Store for Android devices or the App Store for iPhones) and search for the official app of your TV's manufacturer. For example, if you have a Sharp TV, search for the "Sharp TV Remote" app.
  4. Download and install the app on your phone.
  5. Once the app is installed, open it and follow the on-screen instructions to set it up. This usually involves granting necessary permissions and agreeing to terms and conditions.
  6. Once the app is set up, look for an option related to firmware updates or system updates within the app. The exact location and wording of this option may vary depending on the app and TV model.
  7. Tap on the firmware update or system update option, and the app will search for available updates for your TV.
  8. If an update is found, follow the prompts to start the update process. This may involve confirming the update, downloading the update file, and installing it on your TV.
  9. Be patient and let the update process complete. It may take some time, and your TV may restart during the process.
  10. Once the update is finished, your TV should be up to date with the latest firmware.

It's important to note that the specific steps may vary depending on the make and model of your TV and the associated app. Make sure to refer to the user manual or support documentation provided by the TV manufacturer for detailed instructions specific to your device.
