Hi guys don't shoot I'm new here
Right I have a Samsung ue50mu6120k, when you power it up the screen flashes randomly, the front led goes off and on, I read about leaving it plugged in for 4 hours switched on connected to the internet, hoping it will update but nothing has changed.
I dont know what firmware it's on or anything as I can't get anything up on screen to find out, tried info-menu-mute-power doesn't seem to work. Can I update using a USB stick even though I don't see what I'm clicking?
Any help I will be great thanks guys
Gary

Nah if your TV works AT ALL

It DID update to "latest fw" so no need for updating via usb

It will ignore such "deprecated updates"

WHY are you assuming at all it does "Anything" ?

IMHO it's dead, but no idea what you did with that. is screen dead or board? Anyway try warranty

Kept this TV & now it is going. There was a short in the panel. Blocking some of the ribbon connections cured it.
