Something happened to me recently. I have been in FW 1007.9 since August 2019 and all the system was working perfectly with no issue. 2 days ago the Subwoofer stopped working without any obvious reason and despite it was still connected (fixe blue led and Fw version displayed on the bar). Given all the issues reported on thise thread i never wanted to update to the latest firmware, but since the sub stopped working i decided to give it a try.  I updated through the Smarthing App, it took a good 10/15 mins. After the soundbar finished the update, i launched (forced!) the update of the Sub and satellite, but it did not update anything (they were already and stayed in version 0.136). But then i was incredibly surprised that the Sub started to work again 🙂 Even if i had to admit that to me it has lost half of its power. Bass are still there, but they are more subtle (even at +6). At least it makes my wife happy that we will not wake up the kids (we watch movies with volume set at 10% the evening by the way) Here is my Fw version (i am in Czech Republic): M - 0128.0 B - 1010.5 H - 0051.0 FD - 0040.0 W - 0240.0 S - 0136.0 RR - 0136.0 RL - 0136.0 ...

All, i am reading this thread all the week and i want to thank you all for your feedback. Since i still don't have an eARC TV (i am still on LG C7), i will simply skip this update. I suffered from the disconnection so much before updating to 1007.9 fw, now my config works like a charm and i will not take the risk. Good luck to all who updated to this last update and got those issues back 😞 ... View more

@Kneciu wrote: Feature wise everything works great for me, eArc,  Atmos from Netflix internal app and TrueHD passthrough from Nvidia Shield. The problem I got is that whenever I power on the soundbar or TV it doesn't connect to sub and rears automatically they just stay on standby with red light on. I have to disconnect them from power for a minute and after that everything works as expected. What I read from older posts is that this was supposed to be fixed with previous update 1008 but I have the soundbar only couple days and it updated on first day to 1010.5 so I'm not sure if it's the update or my unit is just faulty. I tried basically all possible things like resetting to default, re-pairing all speakers, changing cables, disabling WiFi in entire house to eliminate any interference but nothing helps. I would like to roll back to 1008 but it's not possible apparently (not sure if it would change anything either). All my speakers are updated to newest version and when they are paired everything works flawless and they never loose that connection until I turn TV/soundbar off. I even tried to disable HDMI-CEC hoped that I can keep the soundbar on 24/7 but unfortunatelly it goes to sleep after awhile when no signal is received from TV 😞 Are you sure the firmware of your rears speakers and subwoofer was also updated? You may have an older version and only the firmware of the main unit got the updated. ... View more

I don't know if it is the last onen but I have exactly the same one for ages. Only difference is that i have the firmware 1007.9, and when i click on Firmware update, it show HW-Q90RWWB-1007.9 126R. Since i updated the sub and satellite in 136 in august 2019 and it is working perfectly since then, i disabled the auto update and won't perform any update     ... View more

It's been one week since i have updated the speakers (1007.9 / 0136) and not even one disconnection 🙂   ... View more

You can simulate quite successfully a 5.1 surround when you set up the sound mode on Adaptative Sound. I tried it with Spotify, regular TV channel and Youtube and surprisingly it works quite well (especially with Spotify), it lets the voices on the center channel and sends instruments, music, etc... all around. Easy example with Shallow where it works very well,  both Bradley and Lady Gaga voice are screaming on the center speaker while piano and guitar are sent to the surround speaker. I am still impressed with this mode. The Surround mode looks much less natural in comparison (it is useless to me actually). However, I just found yesterday that while watching Atmos Netflix shows, you have to switch back the sound mode back to Standard for better results. The soundbar is eARC compatible, so if your TV is also eARC you can send uncompressed audio (DTS HD, Atmos etc...) to the sound bar via HDMI. Otherwise as written above the ARC from the TV can only send regular DTS, DD+ (what does Netflix) I have a combo LG C7 + Q90R + Plex that reads 4K remux movies from the PC through Wifi. It works great but it doesn't get the ATMOS from the DTS HD tracks in the 4K remux movies because my C7 doesn't support eARC (C9 does already I think). However, I downloaded the Amaze Atmos demo trailer in DD+ and it pass through the HDMI-ARC via Plex. The Led display of the soundbar is showing it that it is Atmos (and i also listen it :-)) I found it quite ankward from Samsung that none of their last QLED doesn't support eARC while biggest alternative LG's Oled already does. Anyway give a try to the adpatative mode when you are on youtube, you may be surprised ... View more

no idea, you may not have executed the good command... With the Soundbar turned off, when i press and hold the (Sound Control)  button on the remote  for more than 5 seconds until the speaker turns on, here is what happens (video before update)  https://drive.google.com/file/d/1xjegDOMtfV4qMI7jz1T_m56OeIx8EoM5/view?usp=sharing     ...

Forgot to mention that if your wireless Subwoofer and Surround speakers are not synchronized, the system will show 0.0000... so you need to waste sometimes to get it synchronized in order to be able to know in which firmware they are, and then to be sure they get updated... ... View more

when the Soundbar is off (but plugged to the electricity), push and hold the sound control button on the remote (the one with the gearshape) for few seconds. The led display will show "On" and all the firmware will scroll. Film it with your phone (i did it before and after the update) ... View more

Hello everyone, I can give a feedback from my own experience. I have received the soundbar with the following firmware version: M-0126.0 B-1007.9 H-0051.0 FD-0040.0 W-240.0 S-0135.0 RR-0135.0 RL-0135.0   It was impossible to keep the Sub and Surr. repro. connected more than 2hours.   I have followed the update instructions, since the soundbar was already in 1007.9, i launched an update and the Sub and the Sur. repro were updated in 5 mins, i have got this: M-0126.0 B-1007.9 H-0051.0 FD-0040.0 W-240.0 S-0136.0 RR-0136.0 RL-0136.0 It was 2 days ago and still not disconnection ! Finally !!! I am just wandering how it is possible that i have received a brand new soundbar half updated... I wasted so many hours of my time that this issue is not forgivable for Samsung at this pricepoint. ... View more
