I would, if I could access the service menu... I managed once to turn the TV off (by spaming ON/OFF all the time) and tried the service menu code but TV just boots and freezes like on first posts photo. No chance.

I will upload a video in few minutes, also I'm on IRC right now. I would like to provide as much information as possible to prevent users from this situation.

I can't use any buttons or remote control when it boots up... It freezes instant and crash.

Yes, I have already ordered service to come and check this out. Until 06.10.2015 I can provide more information or try something, then samsung will fix it - I hope.

Yeah I know :lol:

I'm still wondering what actually happened... I'm quite sure that I did nothing wrong. Is there any way I can read the error?

Theoretically through Exlink but it would need to set UART to debug mode in service menu :)

Yeah. As soon as you encountered any issues after downgrading you should have contacted us. How fast does tv reboot ? Does it show something on the screen ?
I do NOT support "latest fw" at ALL. If you have one you should block updates on router and wait for it to STOP being "latest":)
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"!!!
If you want root DISABLE internet access to your device!!!!
DO NOT EVER INSTALL FIRMWARE UPGRADE !!!!

Exactly you didn't disable all the scripts. Also faith in "magical" factory reset instead of figuiring out why TV was crashing is the culprit :)
