Turn TV the correct way up ....

Shake with both hands for a firmer grip :-) Seriously, what's a handshake error? I know what a handshake is in technical terms, but I've never seen a TV - or even a computer - specify that it had a handshake error.

usually with samsung tv's they use 10 volt capacitors on a 12 volt circuit board , most definatly one of the capacitors has bulged or popped on the power board if you do not know what a bulging capacitor looks like please google a pic of it then take the back of your tv and check the power board for bad capacitors

Well, I certainly agree with your position. Some electronics are just too costly to have a technician even look at. Disposable. Seems wasteful, but that is how it is, now days.

Fault with its main board. Short circuited component/s at it. Contact any service technician; or the authorized service center. If you wish to get some details; check the site linked here. Surf the site with patience. Pull up older posts. http://electronicshelponline.blogspot.com/ . In most cases, the main board might have to be replaced. If so, a software [firmware] update too might be necessary.

Most likely some components on one of the processor boards have become thermo sensitive over time. This means when they are cold or at room temperature their spec is out. Over time as the circuit board warms up the components drift in to specs. It is time consuming and sometimes difficult to locate these problematic parts. Replacing surface mount components is very specialized and requires proper soldering equipment. If you send the set out for service most likely the service tech will locate and change the complete board that has the fault, if the board is still available. When these TV sets fail out of warranty they are generally not worth to service. I would consider replacing the set...

I have lost two answers I have given. Sorry. Check the input on the remote, it has to be in the correct place. When it is right. Go to set up on the remote, find picture and adjust the colour on the screen. Hope this works for you it has for me. If not restart the router and exchange box if you use that and check input again and the set up. lastly try other channels, it can be the broadcast is not working correctly. all the best kolbrun

could be power supply capacitors. see http://www.amazon.com/Repair-42LC2D-Capacitors-Entire-Board/dp/B0084F9R5M

Back-light problem. Check and replace damaged component/s at its back-light inverter board, or replace this board as card basis. If you wish to get some details; check the site linked here. Surf the site with patience. Pull up older posts. It will be best to replace the inverter board as card basis. http://electronicshelponline.blogspot.com/

There should be a section in the operation manual that tells you how to set up your tv to view jpg or rlf or whatever you saved with the image and dot following. On the right side of the tv there is a button 2nd up from the bottom you push and it goes to video, hdmi ...one of these should lead you to your usb. We just use the laptop and directly link it to the tv to view such files. If this doesn't help, look up the website for your tv and seek troubleshoot, sometimes there is a person you can "CHAT" with, you may get lucky. Also, if the television is a "Smart TV" , it can even link with your "Smart Phone", you just have to find the manual for your phone and find out how! Sorry I can't be there to help you set it up, but just don't get frustrated that's the main thing. Read everything! You will figure it out!
