I have already tried to do the same,but nothing seems to be working out.
Have you done this firmware upgrade using a usb stick?
Because on my TV it's not even showing it in software upgrade option

Is this TV still a good choice? I personally prefer natural PQ of Plasmas. I did not like the artificiality in LEDs.
But afraid of the availability of Spare parts and Service. Please give your suggestions.
Also is the 5yr extended warranty worth it?

I have ordered this TV in Reliance digital for 70k. Please help me on Extended warranty guys. They mentioned it is around 7000 for 2 years extended warranty(Parts and Service). Is it the best price? And the Sales guy mentioned there is no option for extended warranty beyond 2 years.
I prefer to get extended warranty for atleast 4 years. Please advice.

@ Siva - you may look to further negotiate - sub 70k price. Also warranty for product when it is priced below 70k is 4.5k/2yrs so further reduction in total cost. Am also in the process of closing the same TV in the next 3-4 days - will update in this thread.
Pls call Samsung customer care and take the warranty from Samsung. Reliance digital folks may be talking about the Warranty from Reliance and you need to double check as sales guys mislead.
There was an option of 3yr extended warranty last year and totally it will be 1+3. Not sure now.
So had my motherboard replaced for the sound issue.... Kept under observation till next 24 hours. Fingers crossed[emoji120]
BTW, the service Engg mentioned that replacement warranty is only till first week of buying, post that only service warranty. Secondly he suggested that getting an extended warranty would be good option since display panel itself is around 25k and as known more prone to going bust in plasma. Fact 2 - Warranty should only paid in the name of HCL who are the only service providers for Sammy. 3 yrs is around 8.4 plus tax

Well totally confused on the settings - can we keep a sticky post for break-in settings and then folks can have a run posts for post break-in calibration they are loving? I'm getting my unit today and want to be cautious for the break-in period.
Well there ain't any set setting.... But the logic is to keep contrast, brightness, at low till the initial period (Samsung contradicts the need for same for the new gen sets)... But as a caution ..... One could follow the suggested values... I personally use really low values of 10/30/30 celllight/cont/bright. Even after the 200 hr run
Hi guys,
After a long hunt, looking for Panasonics, not finding any, and then demo'ing the Samsung F5500, I have made up my mind to plonk down 70.5k at the Samsung dealer in Bangalore (Rajajinagar). Delivery is one day. I decided to make a money transfer as the sales guy said there would be 1-2% charge on debit/credit cards.
At the billing counter, I noticed the guy handling the system arguing with the sales guy about offering the TV for 70.5k for which the sales guy kept insisting he spoke to his manager and it was a "DP". Matches "Display Piece" or "Demo Piece" perfectly right?!!!
I was very alarmed at this talk and took the sales guy aside and double confirmed if they would deliver a brand new, factory packed item for which he said I can be 100% sure that it was a brand new piece & Samsung dealers don't indulge in such unethical behavior and what not. I still warned him that I was aware of checking the usage on the TVs and if found to be a used piece as per my suspicion, I would have to return the TV.
Now the question is,
1. Is there any way one can 'reset' the TV usage hours to 0 much like they reset the speedometers on vehicles? At least the cosmetic look of the vehicles is an easy giveaway that it's been used, but how do you tell the electronics?
2. Is 70.5k a fair price? Anybody got this for any less in Bangalore?
3. The guy said the TV includes only one 'Smart' remote & no regular remote + 2 3D glasses. Again, is this standard? I've read in some reviews that there were two remotes included in the box--regular, as well as, smart.
Just as I was done making up my mind, a few other variables fell into the mix. Help needed!
Thanks!

I had this in delhi at 67k, and yes it has 1 smart remote only.
On the other hand I am having a hard time to get my TV fixed which is having sound issue. Been after support team for last one month, bit their Engg simple do not back that the problem is there.... Even after seeming the issue and trying to blame the set top box.
