I am trying to decide between the Frame Pro and QN90F. I really want to have the TV display art automatically when not in use. I know the Frame will automatically turn on based on motion, but I can’t find any info about if that’s true for the QN90F. Does anyone know?

Thanks in advance!

Hello,

I just upgraded my S90C to a 65S90F and I saw smudges on the screen when in sunlight, when I light it my flaslight I dont see them. My S90C didnt have this problem, can it be residue from the protective foil? Shoul I return it?

Thanks.

Looking for some assistance with an issue that just surfaced with my tv:

Product Information

Brand/Model: Samsung QN50QN90D (50” Neo QLED 4K)
Model Code: QN50QN90DAFXZA
Manufactured: June 2024 (Made in Mexico)

Symptoms

The TV experienced a sudden failure following a factory reset. For context: I factory reset because back when ambient mode was a thing, I had set up the art mode. Recently, I got tired of it and went to turn it off but the ambient menu no longer exists. There appeared to be no way to disable the art mode so I decided to factory reset. Prior to the reset, the TV was functioning normally with no issues. After completing the factory reset:

-The TV powers on and displays the initial setup screen (QR code pairing screen)

-Within a short period (10-20 seconds), the TV shuts off on its own in what appears to be a graceful/controlled shutdown (not a crash or hard cutoff)

-This power-on/auto-shutoff cycle repeats consistently, preventing the unit from ever completing initial setup

-The TV cannot be used at all in this state, it never progresses past the QR setup screen

Troubleshooting Already Performed

-Full power cycle: unplugged from wall outlet, held physical power button for 30+ seconds, left unplugged 5+ minutes, reconnected directly to wall (no surge protector/UPS)

-Confirmed issue is not related to remote, Wi-Fi network, or SmartThings app interference. I did attempt it with and without an Ethernet cable connected

-Researched the issue and found one other forum post with identical symptoms:

https://us.community.samsung.com/t5/QLED-and-The-Frame-TVs/TV-turns-off-automatically-after-a-Factory-Reset/td-p/3594512

YouTube from that post (exact same as mine):

-Attempted to access the TV’s service menu for deeper diagnostics, but was unable to without it eventually shutting down. This was interesting because it did last a bit longer while it was going into the SM. As soon as I started to navigate around the SM, without getting to change anything, it shuts down.

Warranty just ran out so I’m either looking at attempting to fix this myself if it’s a hardware issue or any suggestions if it’s a potential software/firmware issue.

Thanks in advance!

Has anyone seen this available anywhere yet? Looking to to get one for use with an S95H. Every site I check shows it as out of stock or special order with no time frame for availability.

Is this the same box that comes with the new Frame Pros?

I bought a 65” QN90F and everything is amazing, especially the matte coating which is my favorite part, aside from the very strong bloom effect in HDR which is just unacceptable. I really want the matte screen so I’ve decided I’ll return this TV and pick up an open box S95F.

I will almost certainly be getting the 5 year Best Buy warranty as everyone on the internet loves to hate Samsung so I just need to feel “safe” lol.

Anyways, I watch a lot of YouTube or Twitch of gameplay with static UIs. I know people say burn in isn’t a massive thing anymore but still something to worry about and I’d like this TV to last a long time.

What do you guys think? Don’t worry about it especially if I get the warranty? Or just a stupid decision in general? I really want a matte screen and this is the only OLED in my price range

Just got a Samsung model QN55S90FAFXZA and I hate the remote.

Is there a compatible Samsung remote that has a number pad and other buttons?

I can buy a samsung ue55ks7000uxzt for 130€ but the one connect module seems to not work properly (I still have to see it in person), is it convenient for me to buy it even if I eventually have to replace the one connect module or is it a waste of money given the fact it has 10 years?

Hey everyone,

I recently bought a used 55" Samsung 6 Series (UN55NU6900BXZA). The seller did a factory reset before selling it and didn't include the remote. I am currently stuck on step 3 of the initial setup wizard and have no way to click "Next."

Here is the main complication: the physical power button/joystick under the TV is physically broken. I can jam my finger in to trigger the hardware menu overlay (Power/Vol/Source) and move between the options, but I cannot "click" to select anything, nor can I interact with the setup wizard behind it.

Here is everything I have tried so far:

Philips Universal Remote: I programmed it successfully. The Power ON/OFF buttons work perfectly, but the Arrow keys and OK button do absolutely nothing. I manually cycled through every Samsung code (0812, 0060, 0178, etc.) and only the power command ever registers.

USB Keyboard (Logitech K400): Plugged the USB dongle into the back, but the TV seems to be blocking USB inputs during this specific part of the setup wizard.

SmartThings App: My phone detects the TV via Bluetooth, but the pairing PIN won't display on the screen because the TV is locked on the setup welcome screens.

Ethernet: Hardwired it to my router hoping it would bypass the network steps, but it still requires a physical input to proceed.

Since the universal remote can power the TV on and off, the IR sensor is at least partially working, but it seems like it might be too degraded to read the navigation commands.

My considered next steps:

1. Buy the exact replacement remote (BN59-01301A): Hoping that a dedicated, clean Samsung IR signal might register the arrow keys where the generic universal remote failed.
2. Replace the IR Sensor/Power Button Board (Part BN96-45912A): Since the physical plastic button is already broken, I am considering just spending the $10 on eBay to replace the whole module and (hopefully) fix both the physical button and the IR sensor in one go.
   Has anyone run into this Tizen OS setup lock before? Should I test the dedicated remote first, or just go straight to swapping the internal IR board? Are there any HDMI-CEC or service menu bypasses I am missing?

Best Buy is replacing my S95F with another 77 inch S95F after my current one took a shit along with the box. This is after my S95D one connect box kept giving out and eventually took the TV with it and I was offered to upgrade to my current S95F at no cost. I’ll be moving my 77 inch C4 to the living room where my S95F is right now and putting the S95F in my bedroom. Before I do all that, is it even worth the hassle? Should I just push for a full refund? Did they ever fix the One connect boxes made in MX?

Love my new QN90F!

But one small issue. I have it connected via eARC to my Yamaha RX-V683. I also have an Apple TV 4K connected to the Yamaha.

On occasion, there is a small 1-2 second interruption in sound.

My prior TV was set up the same way with no such issues, so the new variable is only the TV.

Anyone have any advice on this? A setting? I have audio set to passthrough and eARC is on.

My Samsung QLED TV (QA55Q60A)screen has an issue where one half of the display appears greener than normal. One half of the screen displays normally, there is a small transition area in the middle where the colors gradually shift from normal to green, rather than changing abruptly. After that transition area, the rest of the screen appears entirely greener. The issue look similar to a backlight failure, but I haven't seen a case where a faulty backlight causes green like this, it usually darker in the other half
Had anyone has the similar issue? Is there any way to fix this ?
Pls help me, thank you very muchhhhhhhhhhhh!! T.T

I'm using the Samsung Crystal UHD 43" and I just set it up. Almost all of my settings are greyed out and I can't change them. Any ideas?
