If your LG Magic Remote is not working properly in India, it is usually caused by a pairing glitch or low battery power. First, check your batteries; even if the red power light blinks, the remote may lack the power required to send Bluetooth or RF pointer signals . Replace them with fresh, high-quality Alkaline batteries (avoid rechargeable or local zinc-carbon brands). If the cursor still won't appear, you need to re-register the remote to your TV: press and hold the Home and Back buttons together for 5 seconds until the power light flashes, then point the remote at your TV and press the Wheel (OK) button to re-pair it. Additionally, ensure that your TV's line of sight is clear and move any nearby 2.4GHz Wi-Fi routers or Bluetooth devices, as they can cause severe signal interference with the Magic Remote's cursor functionality.
