Thank you! Short and sweet video.
Thx man this is exactly the video i needed u the man!
This is excellent. Thank you, Charlie!
You're very welcome! 😊
Samsung changed their menu a bit (hover over support, then go the left side of the menu that opens, and select Manuals & Software) but the info is still relevant! Thanks!!
Thanks man for the tips and trics
Charlie, Thank You for all you do. You have saved my bacon numerous times. This is but one of them. Cheers!
wow
Your explanation is awesome 😊
Thank you!😊
excellent. very helpful
explained perfectly im going to try this out and if it works out for me im subscribing instantly :)
Welcome to the channel!
I have found this video because I thought the OS version on the TV was telling me it was 2014 as in the year. Turns out not the case, but I am glad that you mentioned it is "sluggish" because that what I thought was making it slow. Still looking for a solution to fixing the sluggishness. Cheers Charlie
Thanks. I'll try this soon.
Thanks for the help bro!
Any time! 😊
Thanks, very useful aopreciated
Glad it was helpful! 😊
Thanks for the help man
No problem 👍
You have nice setup, Thanks for easy tutorial
Thank you!! 😊
Nice one . Update is quite quick.I am going to fix a samsung tv that has lost its memory . It should stay on long enough to update it.I will let you Know if it works many thanks from Mick. UK
I have two folders I extracted them and placed them on my usb but my tv not picking up any updates
Mine too
Same
Copy the file to the root of your USB drive and verify you download the correct firmware
Thanks bro
Hi Charlie, would you have to do this if your TV is set up to automatically update?
Thank you
I dont have an update via usb option. Just checks for new versions
Hey Charlie bro can you review a Sony MHC rv50 please I want to buy one can you review this unit it will help me a lot it is an request plzz.
question. I noticed there are a few or more Samsung Q95T models. obviously, it has to do with a region. here is the problem. I'm working in Israel for a 3-year contract, my native language is English.. this Q95T is running on 220V just like all of European TV. is it possible to change the Region? the first firmware that was on the TV was working fine. I think it was 14.6 (not sure) and the TV kept updating itself. now I'm stuck with 2014.1. which I'm not a big fan of that firmware.
and I know you can't revert back to its "original firmware"
since that day that the TV 2014.1. was installed. the TV picture quality is just not the same. I ended up disconnecting the internet access to the TV.
so I got 2 questions.
1 is there a Hardware difference between a UK Q95T? or Australian Q95T? those all work on 220V. they all look identical.
2 can I flash my TV firmware with either a UK file? or Australian firmware?
my TV model number is model QE65Q95TATXSQ. Thanks.
BTW. the reason I want to change the region. is 1 I can't read Hebrew. my menu is set to English.
2 the Samsung support here is Horrible. Thanks a bunch.
Can you please tell me what is the lastest update for the samsung Q80A and what doe's it fix ?
what are the advantages of updating softwater to a newer version?
very helpful, thank you - as a follow up to the firmware update, do you find any reason to unplug/plug the tv for a min or so and then actually factory reset it to ensure the firmware takes?
Thank you! and there is no need to unplug/plug the tv after the update! It will restart automatically.
👍🏾 appreciate cha
Hi Charlie, I have a 32 inch Samsung very new 2020. Did this procedure. But Can't get airplay?? Do you know any tricks to get it? Thanks.
Thx bro
Any time 😊
Thank you, only when I select the update, it says that there is no new update for you and it does not ask the question about the USB drive to read from the USB.
Hi Charlie great tutorial but I have a question , what's the difference between software update from the tv itself and the one you put in your USB ??
Often your TV will say that there's no update available even when there is one available on the website. That's why you check on the website, download the newest version and install it via USB. It can take your TV months (yes sadly) after an update has been released on the website, to notice it and install it on its own.
Do you need internet on the TV? I have an old tv
Cool I've been waiting for this fix for about a year now. Hopefully I can now display a 4K@120Hz signal at full 4:4:4 10bit with HDR and VRR on HDMI input 4 from my RTX 3070 graphics card.
Its sort of fixed, previously it I was getting a total blank screen on the 4th HDMI port, now I am getting random signal dropouts/black screen ran the HDMI cable test and TV says to replace the cable. 😐 Definitely not in the mood to blow up on a $40 on a new HDMI 2.1 cable. Were you able to get it working on your TV?
@@TechGuyCharlie Yes 4K@120hz 10bit RGB with HDR is now working reliably for me. No HDMI handshake issues when changing inputs either. However this update has definitely messed with my picture quality. Blacks levels have been improved but this has come at a cost of terrible black crush in any kind of dark scenes. Also local dimming is wreaking havoc that I have to turn it down to low to minimize distracting fluctuations in brightness. I'm still manipulating various setting to see if I can mitigate these problems but atm I'm kind of regretting updating to version 2014.
@@felixlersha Are you now getting 4k@120hz 10 bit RGB with HDR aaaaaaaand VRR, all at the same time?
@@daviddawson3822 Unfortunately not for me. That's the one thing I can't get to work sadly. But I've always found VRR kind of buggy on my Q80T. Sometimes I can get it working for a little while but then when I play a particular game or change to a different HDMI input it breaks.
However that's not a deal breaker for me as at a fixed 120Hz I usually don't seem to get any screen tearing as my gaming FPS is always lower than that on my RTX 3070 at 4K high settings. Just thankful to get 4K120 4:4:4 10bit with HDR working now even if it means missing out on VRR.
Sorry, I totally missed your reply!!
BTW, I replaced my cable and now 4k 120hz with rgb 444 works fine, as for VRR, I also have it switched off, instead I have V-Sync turned on, that solved the screen tearing issues.
It is strange, VRR works fine if I plug the hdmi cable in the 1st hdmi port, but then you don't get rgb 444 at 4k 120hz.
Still buggy, LG has their stuff sorted out on their OLED TV, Samsung is being slow.
Fingers crossed and hope the next update doesn't break it. 🙈
As for local dimming, I really wish they had added an open to switch it off, I too find it very distracting while playing games with dark scenes.
question I have a qled 60 to 2021 50 inches but only the 55 inch appears on the page- I can update the firmware to the latest version the same

My Samsung free storage is 1.4GB. Firmware update manual download 1.6GB. Can I update?
hope this will fix our samsung tv, it always disconnect the USB flashdrive.
My tv is 1250 version and in website shows 1250.2 can I download or not...
What if it's stuck on home screen and you can't got it the settings?
Charlie....I have a samsung smart tv series 70. I was watching tv this morning then all of a sudden there was a audible beeping sound while the movie was still on that wouldn't stop no matter what button I pushed on the remote. So I unplugged everything, waited a few minutes and turned the tv back on, but this time there was a blue and black icon in the center with a small red (circled) triangle next to it. My remote would not respond to anything I pushed other than the power button. It would respond to being powered off with the remote but nothing else. What can I do to get my tv back to normal. Please help.
The only way I can think of is calling someone from Samsung and have their tech check the TV. Impossible to diagnose from here. I wish CZcams had an option that would allow us to post photos in comments, I would like to see that small red circle.
Did you ever solve this??
How can I update a firmware with 2 boards I bought for my tv but the screen doesn’t show anything but black lines and all black screens… I got it from a Aliexpress and the sellers keep telling me update the firmware but I can’t see anything to do so
Stuck TV needs to update software tv metz 55 board tp.hv553.pc821 what i do?
Hey hopefully you see this..
Does it matter the samsung website you download it from .. I.e uk vs nz .
Reason is the UK version seems to have a newer firmware vs NZ for Same TV. Samsung is showing 2101 for NZ and 2101.2 on UK site
I dont get that prompt when i tru to auto update?
Hey I want to know what if I want to installed other TV firmware into some other model is it possible? Have you tried it?
That isn't possible, you can only install firmware that is specific to the TVs model. The TV checks before installing it, so if you have any other firmware on the USB drive, the installation will be blocked.
@@TechGuyCharlie ok thanks for the update 👍

Hello, Bun. Glad to see you here.
How to update from 1455-1560 version on Samsung tv
My Samsung TV 2015 model how to update
Have you had issues with this tv? I have same samsung and mine starts flickering a bit/picture starts jumping when it gets hot/after 20min after usage..
None at all, I have it running at 4K 120hz for over a year now without any issues. Never faced any issues.
Its not working please help!
Sir Samsung tv 43 watching to tv automatic of and on problem sir
the TV wont even identify the firmware file on the USB, tried this on a fat32 formated usb on both TU700D and AU800D TV`s
I did all of this and mine still isn't working!!
My tv series 6 didn't see it ...why ?
What if the TV automatically turns off after about 10 seconds every time you turn it on? Is it still possible to update the firmware? I’ve already replaced both boards. I think I need a firmware update.
If it still turns off after 10 seconds even after replacing the boards, then check the integrity of the power cable and the plug point!
@@TechGuyCharlie I checked the wall outlet, but not the power cord yet. We had lightening strike nearby and it fried a bunch of appliances and electronics. I’ll check the power cord next. We’re also doing a bunch of electrical work to prevent it from happening again (hopefully), including whole house surge protectors. What a nightmare. Thanks for the advice!
Please I can't find my tv model on Samsung site
how do i update unsupported? because the software is way too old it doesnt even have youtube
Great job samsung, I own a mac. I can't run .exe and I guess I must format the usb drive to FAT 32 ?
Can I update Samsung q80a firmware update on q80t tv?
Nope! The TV cross checks the firmware for the correct model, you wont be able to update Q80a firmware on Q80t.
I want in support and you didn’t say about this TV
My samsung model literally doesnt let me acess the menus, please help me.
I only have access to a mac, is there a way to update via mac? the files are unsupported and I cannot unzip.
I know it’s been 6 months but you can do that with mac without any software
My screen is completely black always so what could i do then
I have a Samsung smart tv that i bought July 2022 & i only have a laptop computer not desktop, i just don’t understand why my tv doesn’t update on its own without going through all these steps. i have called Samsung, but I’m very disappointed that this tv doesn’t update on its own and i have internet 🛜, because I’m streaming tv
followed it all, it didn't work.
You need to show how the files look in the USB
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Can you revert the firmware this way?
There is no way to downgrade or revert the firmware once it has been updated.
I did everything same as you said in this video, but still my TV is showing that "There are no updates at the moment" What should I do? Please help me
Same for me
What did you do? I’m
Having that issue now
Same here
Me too
I think it means that the TV version you have is not compatible with the hardware and the software update is only for newer TVs
Copy the file to the root of your USB drive
Is this update will work for 2016 and 2017 model
Yup! More or less the same, give this article a read:

How to install third party apps in samsung tv
You cant!! As far as I know Samsung Tizen doesn't support 3rd party apps. You need an Android TV for that.
