Is there any method to remove/replace start.sh file on Samsung UE37D6500.
I added few lines and I think my TV stucked during loading. When I turn on my TV red led blinking 5 times and than stays off, screen stays blank and can't go to service menu.

Is there any way to restore/reset start.sh ?

Thx for any help.

Yes there are if you have ex-link cable you could try format /mtd_rwarea but TV is maybe not long enough on to do this,
But from your post it seems, Another possibility is if you got in clone to TV again would be to put rescue script on TV this is possible from ex-link too, but you should know what you do then. If samygo is starting you should have access via NC or FTP to your TV? @devels sorry for bother but in this case the counter might help, but there are other solutions as well.

Damn, i must write in big red letters: don't touch start.sh!
How looks your start.sh now?
All modifications are needed for startup add only to SamyGO.sh.

If you added lines after exeDSP or if script makes delay before it, or if script is isn't in right encoding and has some unreadable chars, then better call service.
Any incorrect modiffication of this script leads to brick. In most cases - without possibility to repair at home.

can you pin a thread below read first before you brick TV with start.sh and SamyGO.sh modifications where some infos about this are colected. Its realy hard for people like me to get in all of this stuff when beginning with D or maybe E series, i also have a new Board already because of a timing problem, Big Red Letters wont be enough, they and also me would try anyway. because of lack of time i will just post it here there is there a section start.sh and SamyGO.sh in the wiki? if not maybe there should.

I tried to mount my PC shared folders. Now I see it was wrong place to do it. I put it before :
mount -t cifs -o user=username,password=mypass//192.168.1.2/inne /dtv/usb/sda1/share
#LD_DEBUG=statistics LD_BIND_NOW=t /mtd_exe/exeDSP
./exeDSP

I think script stopped on mount cifs command and didnt go further.

Where should i put mount -t cifs to see my windows folders everytime i have my PC on ?

Look what did you do:
you have added to main script of TV the command which mounts network shares BEFORE the network and usb drivers are up.
This means your main TV software -exeDSP has no chance to start and TV goes to reboot with some delay.
Here is no solution for this, don`t waste time and bring TV to Service.
As i said already, you have to edit the SamyGO.sh only and add your commands below the:
