Samsung F8090 - starts itself in the evening

Post by Johnny »

At least in the evening, my F8090 starts for 1 - 2 Mintutes and turns off by itself. There is no sound and no picture.

I turned off the auto firmware update option in the menu. Besides I disabled the automatic updates (OTN Support) in the extended service menu.

What does the TV do and how can I disable these silent checks?

-> The TV did not update the firmware.

No idea?

This effect was even with some older firmwares!

Could it be that the TV tries to look after OTN updates as usual, but does not find any because I disabled OTN?

-> Is there another option in the "extended" service menu to avoid this behaviour instead of unplugging power preventive?

Anyway, this effect is not the same as described with H-series! The TV does completely turn off itself after a few minutes and these checks seem to be irregular!

Which menu do you mean?
The update in the normal menu (where you check for new firmware manually) and the OTN in extended menu is already disabled.

Did you try to disable OTA support in service menu?

No. OTN was the only thing I changed there. But this might help.

But what else does OTA affect?

What has the TV to look for during standby? - It was already surprised because there is no power off button on the TV.

OTA is supposed to be "over-the-air" upgrade (through aerial antenna signal). I don't promise it will solve your issue but maybe it's worth the try to disable it, as it's unuseful anyway. Just in case TV still try to check updates by all means. :)

Ok, I will try it out. But it will last a bit to be sure, because this is not regularly.

Thank you so far.

OTA seems not to be the reason!!
The TV still starts (blank screen, no sound) and truns off itself.

Are there no other users with this problem here? - It is hard to notice! :(

Please check this:

Menu->System->General->Samsung Instant ON - this option must be OFF

If you want me to help you please paste FULL log(s) to "spoiler"/"code" bbcodes or provide link(s) to pasted file(s) on https://pastebin.com Otherwise "NO HELP"!!!
