Since the update, the soundbar is unresponsive and can't be reset.

 

Seems like quite a few people with the issue

Good to hear that! You definitely a lucky guy among us. Do you need to return the rear set / subwoofer to them in order to receive the new soundbar q990d?

W Polse coraz wiฤ™cej zgล‚oszeล„ na forach dyskusyjnych, pojawiajฤ… siฤ™ takลผe artykuล‚y na temat nieudolnej pomocy telefonicznej Samsunga i udawaniu, ลผe nic o globalnej wtopie nie wiedzฤ…. W moim przypadku nie dziaล‚a 930d.

Mam zgล‚oszenie gwarancyjne zrobione, majฤ… odebraฤ‡ sprzฤ™t do serwisu. Jednak zastanawiam siฤ™ czy wysyล‚aฤ‡, bo moลผe na dniach pojawi siฤ™ instrukcja producenta jak dokonaฤ‡ domowej naprawy, o ile to w ogรณle bฤ™dzie moลผliwe. Jeล›li nie bฤ™dzie moลผliwa aktualizacja we wล‚asnym zakresie czekajฤ… Samsunga gigantyczne koszty wysyล‚ek i napraw.

Jeล›li ktoล› zna sposรณb jak w domowych warunkach przywrรณciฤ‡ poprzedniฤ… wersjฤ™ oprogramowania soundbara proszฤ™ o informacje.

I asked for a replacement. Samsung said no as they could fix it and would only replace if it couldnโ€™t be fixed. 
I said the timescale for the fix was not reasonable so would they replace it. They said no. 
I asked if they knew how to fix it, they said yes but they didnโ€™t know howโ€ฆthat was a different department. 
I told them to note on my ticket that I will be coming back for a replacement if the timescale for a repair is unreasonable (I was told at least 18 days but thatโ€™s before they factor in the scale of the issue)

Basically, they just need to replace the motherboard they have brokenโ€ฆthe rest of it โ€œshouldโ€ be unaffected. Will they have enough spare parts even? The companies they outsource to wonโ€™t have enough, so they will have to order them in from Samsung. 

Samsung would be better just to replace every Soundbar still in the warranty period and concentrate their repair effort on the rest.

I turned off auto update and Iยดm still in 1016
