Samsung 50" 6 Series - Missing bluetooth?

[anthonymcg]

Hi folks,

I live in Ireland and bought a Samsung 50" 6 Series UHD HDR Smart TV in the sales over Christmas. The model number is UE50KU6020. The spec sheets seem to indicate it has Bluetooth (for connecting to headphones in my intended case) but having checked, I can't find out where and how to enable it. I'm running the latest firmware and have gone to Settings->Sound->Expert Settings but Wireless Speaker Manager is greyed out. When I try to click it into I'm told 'This function isn't available. Any ideas? I'd really like to get it going.

Thanks in advance,

Anthony

Thanks for the info, I will try this. I too can't beleive these do not have bluetooth. My mistake for not reading the details more carefully and being attracted to a low price! Once you've mounted them returning seems like such a duanting task. 😉

It is still being advertised as BT. I will be returning the UN58MU6070 yesterday. what a pain, I have to take it off the wall .  these must be bottom of the line sets . No BT even the audieo only has optical. the Picture is ok but appears to be choppy like the processor cant handle the video . I can not hook my sound bar up because no BT ,  I am disapointed in Samsung I think Walmart brand gives you moor for the money .

switch off the sound mirroring so that the wireless speaker manager can be enabled

I have a 65" UHD TV series 6 that I knew it didn't have bluetooth when I bought it.  My question, is there an adaptor that can be purchased to make the TV bluetooth accesssible?  I would like to use bluetooth speakers or connect the TV to my laptop wirelessly?  It appears there are numerous items to purchase but I don't know if any of them will work for what I want.

Samsung does not have the firmware for bluetooth for the 6 and 7 series TV because I have the 7, and if you go into the Dev menu by powering off the TV press mute 182 power, the Dev menu shows up go to option  Then MRT and you will see BT and it's off. If you turn it on, power cycle the TV, now you will see BT option in the settings, the BT might work if you have the firmware  you will see the device you want to connect or it may not because you dont have the firmware, and im still trying to find and install a firmware for it manually I will let you know.

Just wondered if anybody found an answer to this?

Is there a device which will plug into the 6 series to make it BT compatible?

Awesome and thank you ! Once I got into the dev menu and put BT to on, power cycled the tv, I now had the speaker list under sound. My Samsung BT speaker now works properly!!!
