Hello!
I repaired the TV yesterday myself, with a grill grate.
My Samsung 5 series TV stopped responding to the volume buttons, then all the buttons on the remote control and the joystick on the TV itself, and on 10/28/17 the TV stopped responding to the power off and sleep buttons.
Symptoms:
1. August 2017, the TV stopped responding to the sound volume buttons, while the signal reception indicator blinked, but the function did not work, Smart Hub either worked or did not work. Because a TV set is needed only for watching YouTube and sometimes 1 channel, then this was critical;
2. September 2017 the TV stopped responding to all buttons of the remote control and joystick, except for the on / off and sleep mode buttons, but sometimes (late night, early morning) there was a reaction to all buttons; sometimes functions were reassigned between the buttons;
3. On October 28, 2017, the TV stopped responding to all power off and sleep buttons.
Finding a solution to the problem:
I must say right away that because the TV set is 3 years old and knowing that the same people as me work in the service centers, I decided to contact the Samsung service center or the TV repair when I did everything right myself, and the initial condition was to fix the TV set without disassembling it, because stupidly lazy.
The TV model is UE40H6230AK, but in the end you will understand that this information has nothing to do with the result:
1. I read almost all the Russian-language forums of the CIS where the problems of Samsung TVs were discussed (I learned a lot, thought a lot (no more than 10 minutes) and did it quickly);
2. Changed the batteries in the remote control (did not help);
3. I disassembled and cleaned all the boards and contacts of the remote control with alcohol (alcohol did not help the remote control, but it helped me);
4. Checked the socket and power plug of the TV (did not help);
5. I checked the power outlet, disassembled it, pulled out the contacts, assembled it, checked the ground (it didn’t help);
6. I checked the protective zero and the machine in the switchgear. shield, extended contacts (did not help);
7. Reset smart settings Hub via menu (didn't help);
8. Through the service password (from some forum), I reset Smart Hub, built-in browser settings, cleared the cache, turned off Wi-Fi (did not help);
9. Through the advanced access password (from some forum) I got access to all factory calibrations, settings and functions. There I was looking for the Bluetooth on / off function, because even then, in addition to Bluetooth, I checked everything that was possible (it didn’t help);
10. Because all that could help me those. I already did support for Samsung, then I called there only to clarify whether it was possible to turn off Bluetooth. The technical support manager repeated resets and resets through the external access password, checked the factory settings, at the same time explaining that there is no software on / off Bluetooth, only disassemble and disconnect the antenna with your hands, also discussed with him the option of stupidly gluing half of the laptop to the TV and using the TV only as a screen - the conclusion was that it was premature (in general, it was interesting and pleasant to talk, but it didn’t help);
11. Consistently, observing the reaction to the buttons, disconnected all devices and wires from the TV, turned off all devices with Wi-Fi and Bluetooth in the apartment (did not help);
12. Took cellular telephone and started searching Bluetooth devices under, above and around the TV, a “9th generation Samsung TV” device was found under the TV, the signal is stronger, obviously this is the TV set of the neighbors below, to interrupt the signal you need a metal mesh or grate that was found in the gas stove - grill grate 500x500 mm.
I put the grill grate on the floor, under the carpet, under the right corner of the TV (there is a Bluetooth antenna) and all the functions of the TV started working without disassembling the TV, without a useless trip to diagnostics and service centers so that everyone who wants to pay 500-1000 rubles for "watch": )
In those. Samsung support by phone did not refute that the seizure of the functions of one Samsung TV set by another older generation telecom is possible and they have no solution to the problem.
