What might cause this?
Possible reasons depend on the exact model. These are checks, not a confirmed diagnosis.
Possible causes
- The model may not support AirPlay or the feature may be disabled.
- The phone and TV may be on separate Wi-Fi networks.

Step 3

When should you contact service?
If the issue persists after these safe checks, contact LG official support with your exact model and what you tested.
⚠ Stop using a device if it overheats, shows liquid damage, smells burnt or has a swollen battery.
Will a repair cost money?
Settings, cables and user checks may require no repair. Hardware costs depend on the exact model, warranty and service diagnosis; no fixed price is promised.
Quick answers
Could these checks affect warranty?
Use only external checks recommended for end users by the manufacturer. Opening batteries, electronics or sealed parts can create safety and warranty risks.
What if the steps do not help?
Write down your model, software version and test results. Share those details with official support rather than repeating potentially unsafe actions.
