Agreed on all counts, airgapping a TV is trivial I don’t get the complaining here for a dumb TV (aside for less technical people). That said, my LG G2 will full screen block content to show a “voice control” feature awareness notification that tells me to connect the TV to the internet about once a month :/

I have a C2 myself, C3 was just my example, I imagine the OS is similar to your G3, but in anycase maybe it's worth updating the firmware? That can be done by USB. My C2 had some odd behavior relating to complaining there was no internet connectivity and other misc bugs before I did that. Now it's basically perfect and I won't touch the firmware again without a really good reason.

Yes this is the problem! Complains there is no network so voice control doesn’t work even though I never initiated voice control and I don’t allow it on the network. I’ll check firmware version but I updated it relatively recently… though I just had a full screen replacement so maybe that moved my firmware back to whatever the new screen’s is somehow. Thanks!
