UA46D7000LR (T-GAPDAAC) possible to Install T-GAPDEUC ???

[alexstamos]

Dear

My D7000 (UA46D7000LR) is from Philippines Origin and has the (T-GAPDAAC 1016 firmware). (no NetFlix, No HULU, no nothing)

What i am looking for is to know if HARDWARE is the same with UA46D7000LM (Australian origin) or UA46D7000 LU (UK origin) so i can install the (T-GAPDEUC 1021.2 firmware)?

When i try to install it replies with Error (not for my model) but this check can be easily overridden by changing the Version.txt file information to match.

Will though work or will it brick my TV.

I know that UAXXD7000 & UEXXD7000 have (Australian & UK) the same hardware (not like the US one's) but does that apply with mine?

Furthermore, if anyone knows how to install (safely) please advise...

Thanks

Alex

Well, I have UA40D6000. Board is same for UExxD6000 versions but the tuner. We tried and installed T-GAP6DEUC via some exotic ways (classified knowledge) but TV doesn't show local channels from cable...
So there is some minor issues. Also I remember there is no sound on T-GAP6DEUC firmware. I don't remember other issues. Might Juzis give details on it remember...

With T-GAPDEUC, you probably install some tools like netflix/hulu apps but I have doubt if they works on your TV. (Due DRM key differences?)

The best way is, buying a cracked D7000 panel for cheap ( or the main board ) and change board.

Yes, the TV with hardware original GAS6DAAC, was flashed with T-GAS6DEUC. Here was no difference in TV`s behavior, everything operated as with original firmware.
The main goal was to get the localisation, available for european TV`s. So after such successfull crossflashing we could change to PANEURO regio, but after reboot the sound was lost. If do not touch locale, then no problem with sound. But regio should be original.

I think those problems are hardware dependent, not software, because of tuner type on board.

Same situation was with GASAKUC on board. We got some UN model specific software solutions like remote assistance, which was not available on european firmwares (added to recent firmwares only) but in service menu we also got USA/Mexico/Canada locales only. Also PVR functionality was lost.

I think those TV`s have similar hardware for all regions, but some parts like tuner - are region specific because of standards used for television translations...

Yes, the cheapest way is to change mainboard. As the connectors, T-Con, panel and other parts are same for all over the world, replacing the mainboard transforms your TV without any damage... This is confirmed with B and C series (B550->B650, C630 msx6deuc->c650 valdeuc) and also on D series too (D6000 -> D6750, D6100 -> D6500). Sure must check what about D7 and D8 models, but i think should be ok too.

So, how to flash for example T-GAP8DEUC over T-GAP8DAAC?

Classified knowledge... Watch out! Samsung's paid slave engineers here.

[juzis]

root your TV and flash partitions manually. But it`s too dangerous to do this at home, just in SamyGO laboratories

I wonder that if he could able to install NetFlix or Hulu widgets by hand to current FW?

Do those widgets require UN or UE firmware?
Anyone know about it?

Or Cross flashing enables those widgets? I have doubts on it.

Might we could test this...

you can install the widgets over develop account, but for netflix also some libraries are requirde in the firmware, so it won't start on devices where samsung not implemented it. second
thing is that netflix has geoip check on server side...
for hulu: don't know maybe it works maybe not, but also no problem to install the widget...
crossflashing is required if you really like to start netflix guess installation over samsungs appstore its possible if you change infolink country but if no libraries in the firmware it's for nuts.
but i generally i not prefer to crossflashing than for sure here are maybe some hardware differences too.
