TV not working after software update

[lukehurst1991]

My Samsung model UE50MU6100K won't turn on anymore after the software update that came yesterday.

I've spoken to the call centre and they said it's been escalated but I want to know what has actually happened? Can this even be fixed by another software update like I keep being told?

Hi All,  the new update issued today seems to work.  I just received a call from somebody in customer services who said the new update works and to retry.  Within 30 seconds everything was back to normal.  Just made a refreshing change for somebody to call me who actually knew what they were talking about.   For the first time I also didn't have to justify that the remote control batteries had run dry. 😡😡 I hope the rest of you have the same food fortune getting your TVs up and running.

Turned off Automatic updates but had a message asking if I wanted to install update ( ver 1141.0 ) anybody loaded it yet ? Also can't find any information on what the update is actually for, which I find annoying, anybody know ?

Thanks

Hi @George2015.

The problematic update rollout was stopped and pulled from availability; and I've been assured that the issue was then fully identified and won't happen in future updates.

Any problems on your TV as of yet?

Hi thanks for the reply Ants I'm getting drops in sound volume now and tben but nothing major I'm just wondering how this has happened to my tv and wether there's a reason why it won't update any further than version 1138 now

TV back from the support contractor GoggleBox. 2.5 weeks without a TV.

They told me the motherboard didn't have to be changed anyway on the end but they did manage to re-flash an even newer software.Its currently on version 1139.170819

I think that's the version the engineer updated my tv to when they called out however I'm back to version 1138 somehow strange but true

No worries @George2015.

Definitely odd that. Are you able to update to version 1141.0 (available in the Downloads here) using the USB method?
