    Why does my Samsung TV keep turning on and off by itself?
    trent
    over 1 year ago
    The most common reasons for the TV to turn on by itself is having foreign matter around the power button of the remote control, external devices connected to the TV, and your settings. If the power button is stuck, clean the remote control.

    How do I manually update my Samsung Smart TV?
    kraig
    over 1 year ago
    Using your TV's remote, navigate to Settings, and select Support. Select Software Update, and then select Update Now. New updates will be downloaded and installed on your TV. Updates usually take a few minutes; please do not turn off the TV until the update is complete.
