    What happens when you reset Smart Hub on Samsung TV?
    vanesa.veum
    over 1 year ago
    When the Smart Hub is reset all downloaded Apps are initialised. User accounts and settings are wiped from the apps, and all Smart Hub settings will revert to the factory default.

    How do you fix a smart TV that keeps turning off?
    ernie
    over 1 year ago
    Unplug the TV from the outlet for 30 seconds, and when plugging it back in, plug it directly into an outlet that you know works properly. This is called a 'soft reset' and should recalibrate the TV.

    Why does my Samsung TV keep turning off then back on?
    edmundo_predovic
    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.
