Hello Everyone,

Have anyone experienced reboots with samygo flash stick?
Having an F series TV, UE40F6200AW, firmware T-MST12DEUC-2102.2; T-MST12DEUS-1009. (From service menu), update domains are blocked on router. Using samygo for its virtual usb feature --> connecting to a Linux box working as a NAS, with an ordinary CIFS share.

Using samygo since 8th august, my only problem was an USB drive failure, but the drive was an old one, after a replacement one, it worked flawlessly - until yesterday evening, when TV rebooted itself unexpectedly. I thought it was some random failure, but today evening, it started rebooting itself again and again. There are a 3-5 minutes gap between reboots. If I unplug the flash drive and reboot the tv (or I wait for it reboot), the problem disappears. Tried to replace the drive, with no luck, after 3-5 minutes, the TV reboots.

Can anyone help me to solve this problem?

It happened to me also when the Virtual USB window was appearing the TV started rebooting... it happened quite frequently in the last months...
I disabled several init that are useless to me and the problem disappeared...
Which inits do you have active ?

Disable Watchdog in Service menu

Which inits do you have active ?

Hey guys, thanks for the reply! I'll check both as I got home and will post the results!

Firstly I disabled watchdog, and it worked, reboots gone.

Secondly, checked the inits, currently these ones are active:
01_01_catch_crap.init
01_02_telnet.init
02_04_vusb.init
02_06_crypto_load.init
03_01_fuse.init
04_04_samba.init
06_05_apache.init
06_05_samba-server.init
99_99_ChannInfoON.init
99_99_InfoBannerDuration.init
99_99_PVRAnyDev.init
99_99_SleepTimer.init

Hello guys, just a little update: after disabling watchdog everything seemed fine, but the TV became very slow and weird. It took to swich off around 1 minute from pressing the power button to the actual switching process (hearing the 'click' and seeing the red standby led). When I switched it back, everything seemed normal until I tried to playback anything from USB or Virtual USB, because it was miserably slow, took 30 seconds to change a folder or browse my nas content. Finally I factory resetted the TV, re-applyed SamyGO, and now its working as it should be.

Do you have any idea what happened? My theory is that something ate up the free space on the TV's internal storage, although I didn't checked it before the factory reset.

No idea what happened. Sometime consequent injection causes this issue.
If it happens again I suggest to disable the followings and try to enable them one by one:

Code: Select all

06_05_apache.init
99_99_ChannInfoON.init
99_99_InfoBannerDuration.init
99_99_PVRAnyDev.init
99_99_SleepTimer.init

It might to be worth to add some sleep on any of the above init.

No idea what happened.

Thanks for the tip! The TV was also slow without the SamyGo USB, so this is why I decided to factory reset. However I'll disable the inits you mentioned as I don't use them at all.
