I have a Samsung UE55NU7023 i was playing back content just fine today and after i ejected my usb stick and insterted after 10 minutes without doing anything that would cause trouble my tv stopped loading anything from the usb port. It kep loading the usb forever when i tried to access it. I tried multiple usb sticks and it did the same thing. But when i had a single folder with a video in one usb drive the tv prompted me as always to play the video without opening the files and it played the video just fine, but when i tried to access the files after that i couldn't. What is going on? The port clearly works, what should i do?
Solved! Go to Solution.

I tried factory resetting, resetting the Smart Hub, and unplugging for several hours. None of those methods worked. (I also tried to download old firmware and manually update but I was not able to roll back to the previous firmware.)

Folks,
I have just received my TV back from Samsung with Free Of Charge repairs arranged thru the retailer I purchased it from FOUR years back. I say again - if you are having issues write to the retailer who you purchased the set from - see my earlier post for a template letter.
Paperwork says they have replaced the Mother Board. Before the set went to them it had firmware version 1241.5 BUT what is in the set after the repair is Version 1231 !
The first thing I did after I switched it on was to disable auto updates! Now to see how it performs over the next few days. Will report back later.

I had that off before Samsung decided to force that last update on me that screwed up my TV.
Good luck with your TV.

Hi Merino, tks for the update and interesting to hear you received the unit back on the lower version, but unfortunately it's upgraded on you!!!
for me, since i've done the factory reset and hub reset, all ok. Tv has been powered off / on to standby mode but i haven't yet removed the usb device from the tv set.
for sure Samsung have pushed out dodgy software / firmware but still no acknowledgement of an issue. i'm not sure if enough people complaining.

Well seems some updates are forced by Samsung no matter what options you have ticked off.
Only way to avoid it I guess not connect it to the internet.
Yet don't disapair just yet, for me I got that nasty new firmware upgrade in late November but I didn't get affected by it till late December so you could have a nice window untill it goes bad on you again and hopefully till then they would have pushed a new firmware with the fixes for everyone.
Till then everyone reading this please take the time and drop an email or a chat with your local Samsung support and tell them about your problem(s) while linking this very topic for extra info. The more we do it the better.

Status update from Malaysia site. Ever since the complain to Samsung CEO 2 weeks ago, service center has been calling me for appointment to check TV log, but we didn't make it due to my tight schedule. Nothing has been done so far, but my TV has been working fine now. Smart hub works fine, usb can be detected and content is able to be displayed. I have no clue at all.
