Samsung Q990D unresponsive after 1020 firmware update

[Jwrc]

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

Seems like quite a few people with the issue

Yes some one should start it

I asked for a replacement. Samsung said no as they could fix it and would only replace if it couldn’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 didn’t know how…that 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 that’s before they factor in the scale of the issue)

Basically, they just need to replace the motherboard they have broken…the rest of it “should” be unaffected. Will they have enough spare parts even? The companies they outsource to won’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.

Should I update to 1020 via USB? 

I turned off auto update and I´m still in 1016

Why risk it?

[Cachimori]

To avoid it autoupdate via WIFI

Thats ist. Nothing else. Waiting on a call tomorrow for more information. Now that i see the scope of it all i am getting worries how they are going to handle this… And are they really capable?? Within an acceptable amount of time??? I doubt that to be honest.

What makes me a bit angry is there is nothing to hear from Samsung. At least to say sorry and they’re working (hard) on solutions!
