Others have asked what to do, when they did the "Service Menu Micom Upgrade Fuckup" (SMMUF) ..
Yuzis usually answers something like, - "Get a new motherboard".

Its basically unfixable, as far as I know.

You should call a Samsung techie, and look totally blonde when he arrives .. and you know NOTHING .. the shit just wont work !
Depending on the techies skills, he will certify to warrenty .. thats basically your only bet I think.

100percent agree. You don't know anything about service menu, one day tv was ok, but next day it declines to show anything...
Else you will pay for mnew mainboard + replacement.

Confirm - This works! Even if you are not blonde
And making a face like a (dumb) donkey will also help...

Hi!
Thanks for answers.
I read this thread: viewtopic.php?f=9&t=5706
Last post says: "Samsung confirmed that the problem was in the firmware update system, something went wrong at some point and the TV bricked."
So they could also check if i changed SUBMICOM UPGRADE?
How could cost replacement of motherboard if they'll detect my bad? I don't want pay anything :<
Last question, what is SUBMICOM?

they will not check anything. Stay quiet, usually they just replace mainboard by default w/o to checking deeper. Lordbyte said already - if you don`t tell the truth, none will know what happened in real. So it is up to you.

Thanks again xD

Yes, if they suspected you of fraud, or something similar, and they need to "make an example of you".
If they want to spend the resources (lab + REAL techie) they CAN detect that motherboard enters the
MICOM update-loop bootstrap-time .. just a matter of monitoring the bus with some latch-on hardware debugger.

However, this scenario is very very far fetched .. Samsungs cheepest way to honor their warranty is simply
to replace without questions, if nothing else is out of the ordinary. If you tell the Samsung techie about your
knowledge about the service-menu, that is totally flagged as "out of the ordinary", and you expose yourself
to criminal action .. Lab + Techie = Evidence
