TV: UE55 NU7500
I'm not sure whether this is a general Samsung issue or just to do with my TV, but the amount of space allocated to the Smart Hub apps seems to be seriously lacking.
As this is a new TV I thought I'd explore some of the available apps, but when I went into the Apps area I got a message saying that there was insufficient space to update apps. This was before I had downloaded anything, so it would purely apply to the pre-installed apps.
I checked settings and the used space was 751MB with 64MB available, i.e. 7%. This seems absurd as these apps can't be deleted and are built into the system. The available space doesn't even allow them to be updated. I then tried resetting Smart Hub. This has helped to an extent as the available space is now 13%. However, it's still far too low and whenever I try and download a new app I get a warning about available space.
I can't believe that the pre-installed apps are taking around 700MB of space, and it seems crazy that Samsung would design the system this way. Presumably I will have to install an SD card to provide more space for the apps?
Any tips welcome as this is my first Samsung TV.

Hi, I'm guessing by the amount of Pages, that this is still on going and has not been resolved. I also purchased a UE55NU7021 sometime last year and only noticed now that the internal memory has run out of space! are people getting refunds or am I just stuck with this issue?
My take is that Samsung are completely ignoring us. It is purely luck and the willingness of the shop to change.
Many do not have a resolution

Rowley1. one of this thread's most vocal and persistent posters has gone quiet.
One week ago he posted the below, since we have heard nothing.
Please let us know the outcome of your engineers vistit.
My engineer comes in the next couple of hours to install a new board
This is my current state from a reset
It's weird about @Rowley1. No posts since the one you quoted, yet according to his profile he was online here on Wednesday, so he must have deliberately ignored requests for an update.
In any case, we know what would've happened - either the motherboard was changed and made no difference, or the engineers decided not to bother as they knew it was a waste of time. One of those two things happened to everyone who's had a motherboard change.
The above is one scenario.
Another is Samsung sent a Hitman instead of engineer. Or they offered him a new set if he agrreed not to post anything more.
Are we being picked off one by one?
Come on @Rowley1. Tell us what happened!!

On Thursday i contacted Samsung chat (again) I now have my complaint pre-typed so easy to copy paste when talking to them. After the initial contact things whent quiet for 20 minutes obviously i went off to do some things but the agent never came back to me.
I have highlighted the sections which is Samsung reply.
Below copy of complaint sent to CEO via site told it would be escalated.
Hello.
I contacted your chat on line again yesterday. After the initial greetings i was left waiting on line without your support answering the questions i put to him.
So a further 30 minutes of my life wasted waiting for an explanation to below.
Thank you.
Hello. Can you help me in English?

I am contacting you due to being unable to get a problem with my TV resolved. One year ago I purchased a 55-inch NU7093 TV. Recently I have been getting a unable to update Internal memory full message. - internal storage is only 1GB. Samsung force Apps onto the TV taking up valuable storage space to the point where I have none of my own Apps and can’t add any . I consider this is a major design flaw The The storage issue prevents apps updating and just as importantly stops security updates loading. generally reducing the usefulness of a smart TV.

When contacting Samsung I have been promised call backs it never happens. We have been told to reset the TV for factory setting- reset-hub. done all these things problem still apparent. Also told firmware update would rectify it, but were given no date when this would happen. Some purchasers were told they would have a new updated motherboard fitted, there is no hardware fix - this has already been investigated engineers have concluded there is no board for NU7000 TVs with adequate storage. It is unacceptable that I am expected to just deal with an inherently faulty product that is not truly fit for purpose. one member on the Samsung Community site (there is no fix for this issue, so no point for replace with the same model) We all know Samsung is aware of this problem it just depends what you are prepared to do to rectify it.
