My samsung ht c350 wont
Found out how to solve this problem, as it has put a child lock on the device, try holding the Stop button on the remote for five seconds. This resets the device, then turn it back on and it will go through inital setup and then try oepning the tray.

Unit model D-C350/XSA only opens region 4 need to
Hi there,
When I was with Samsung NZ, the following was how we multizoned our DVD (Region 4) players:
1. Turn on your player, but ensure no disc in machine - screen should show "No Disc"
2. Turn on your TV and select your DVD input (as if you were to watch your DVD).
Using your factory supplied remote, press the following buttons:
3. Press the Repeat (or Repeat A-B) button
4. Press the following button sequence: 7, 6, 8, 8, 4, 9 (you should see the number '9' appear on screen - this means 'Region Free').
5. Press the Open/Close button (to open the tray)
6. Press the Open/Close button again (to close the tray)
7. Press Power OFF (to shut down your DVD player)
8. Press Power ON (to turn on your DVD player)
9. Insert Region 2 disc and wait (up to 1min) for firmware to respond and read your disc
If this fails, try procedure again, except for Step 4: change the last number (instead of 9) to '2'.
Let me know how you get on.
Cheers,
Scott

Just bought a Samsung DVD-C350.
If the remote itself is draining batteries at a rapid rate, the remote is probably of a defective design. The other possibility lies within the IRD controller circuit in the main unit - it is probably under-designed with low-grade inferior quality components (hence why it might be too weak to recognise the remote and/or the remote itself does work, but the unit's IRD is not detecting it). If you have tried to operate the unit with the remote close to it, and it still won't work, then the IRD controller is faulty (probably a manufacturing defect) - the main IC and associated components behind this infra-red device are usually the cause of 'no remote' faults. This gives the user the illusion that their remote is dead when it is the receiver circuitry at fault. Unfortunately this is an expensive repair and is not economical for a budget unit.
Although I am aware of various appliances and some of their stock problems, along with advancing technology, I am not completely sure of this model, however I would recommend that you visit the store you bought it from once more, and perhaps persuade them to exchange once more for a different brand/model of similar value and function. If that exchange involves a few extra dollars, so be it - you want it to work fully out of the box, so be aware of the price difference if necessary. You do not need to accept any offers of repairs on this one. See if you can get a better model.
Fingers crossed. Hopefully it will work out for you.

These LEDs are very susceptible to static electricity damage. What happens when they get zapped is a tiny threading fault starts in the LED crystal. The aluminum contact metal starts migrating into the crack, makes it wider and longer, and eventually goes all the way through the LED and shorts it out. When that happens, the metal overheats and burns out the LED so the entire string goes dead.
What this means for you is that the original LED may have been may have been zapped at the factory. The replacement strip likewise, or when it was removed from another TV (if it is a used part), or when you put it in. It should have been in anti-static packaging. You have to be very careful not to touch any of the circuitry on the LED strip, and make sure you ground your hand to the TV metal both before picking up the LED strip and right before connecting the strip to the TV. Better yet, use an anti-static wristband connected to the TV frame.
It is possible that the LED driver for that string is pushing too much current, but that's not likely. You would probably notice that part of the screen is unnaturally bright.

Brand new Samsung 77 OLED tv. Got knocked off the stand and fell on and bent the lower corner
It sounds like your TV has a display issue, likely caused by physical damage to the screen due to the bend. Repairing a damaged screen can be quite expensive, often nearing or exceeding the cost of a new TV, especially for larger screens like the one you described.
Here are a few options you might consider:
- Sell it as is: You can try selling the TV in its current condition, clearly describing the issue with the display. Some buyers may be interested in purchasing it for parts or attempting a repair themselves.
- Attempt a DIY repair: Depending on your technical skills and willingness to take on the challenge, you could try to repair the TV yourself. However, this can be risky and may void any remaining warranty. There are online tutorials and replacement parts available, but again, this route requires some technical expertise.
- Professional repair: You could contact a professional TV repair service to get an estimate for repairing the screen. Be sure to weigh the cost of repair against the potential selling price of the TV after it's fixed to determine if it's worth the investment.
- Sell for parts: If repairing the screen is not feasible, you could dismantle the TV and sell its components individually. Some parts, like the internal circuitry or casing, may still hold value to electronics enthusiasts or repair professionals.
- Trade-in or recycle: Some retailers offer trade-in programs where you can exchange your old electronics for store credit or discounts on new purchases. If the TV is beyond repair, you can also look into recycling options to properly dispose of it.
Ultimately, the best option for you will depend on the extent of the damage, your budget, and your willingness to invest time and effort into repairing or selling the TV.
