UE49KS7000 Change Region

Post by bigbadger »

Hi Need some help with my new TV. I want to set my TV to UK region - rather than Spain as my Spanish is not good enough - so that I can access the UK options. I have a remote but has very few buttons!! Any help appreciated. Thanks

You don't need to change "region" to change menu language, just browse menu until you find it, or read manual. If your Spanish is not good enough: "Idioma" :D

ps: We're not Samsung support.

Sorry - I think I misphrased my question. I effectively want my Spanish TV in Spain to access the UK Samsung store with BBC iPlayer ITV Hub etc. This is why I want to change the region setting rather than just the language. I have another manufacturers TV where it is an easy change but not the case with Samsung. I can change the DNS but not the region setting on the TV itself. Muchisimo gracias

Well, search forum and/or wiki for "region change" or "localset", you'll get mucho results :)

They all dont work on k series. at least for me.
Even in extended service menu (where you see "instant on" etc.) there is no "local set" menu. Getting into the more advanced service menu with "Factory + 3Speed" just gives test pictures of red, green, blue background.

Any new idea, how to change region? I would like to change my KS7000 to KS7090....

Now you have root, try:

Code: Select all

launch_app org.tizen.factory
Like previous series, "blinking colors" is effect of FACTORY key alone, and means your TV didn't catch 3SPEED key.
Better use INFO+FACTORY from TV ON, more reliable.

With root, there's also:

Code: Select all

samyGOrc KEY_INFO KEY_FACTORY
and without root:
viewtopic.php?f=104&t=12300&start=10#p104421

Not as if ways were missing :)
