    Philips 42PF5331 HDMI not working!

    Hey Guys ,

    Got this tv for free with a fault that it "shows weird colours" . Took the tv home and plugged the power in and i noticed that they are sparkies.

    The main problem i now have is that none of my philips remote controls are working on this tv so i can't select HDMI from the source input.
    I tried using the side buttons and i can select "antenna , ext 1 / 2 / 3 & video "

    Ext4 ( component ) & HDMI 1,2 i can't select even though a signal is present from the HD receiver.
    When i use PiP ( Picture in picture ) i do get a small window with hdmi input.

    Anyone got a suggestion?

      I had a Philips set that would hide the HDMI inputs if there was no input signal, perhaps it could be that? Or sometimes, HDMI inputs are called "EXT" and a number.

        Thx for the reply.

        No its not that. Tried different inputs like hd receivers + pc but it does not show HDMI or component.

        Think its time to open this tv….

            So 2 more pictures of the set! Strange thing is that when using PiP i do get a hdmi picture but the quality is not that good.
            Do i need a new videoboard? ( picture 3 )How can i test this?

            Ext 1 = scart and works
            Ext 2 = scart and works
            Ext 3 = video out and works
            Ext 4 = cant select ?
            Hdmi 1/2 cant select ? Signal is there and i used different cables and hd receivers.

            Remote from 42FD9944 does not work either.

            Im lost here!

              Also , because the remote is not working. Can i simply change the "eye" on the small print from a different philips set? Or is it just a receiver like on other tv's? Im talking about the small black component where the signal from the remote is going to.

                GTX 750 HDMI output not working
                by hinisa
                Hi

                I have an GTX750-FML-1GD5 with a non-working HDMI port and I'd like to figure out what's the cause and if it's easily repairable.

                GPU is working fine. VGA and DVI-D ports are also working just fine. But whatever monitor or TV I plug into the HDMI port, it isn't even recognized, let alone giving a display.

                I took a glance at the HDMI port and couldn't see any obviously broken parts.

                I've also read on various forums that some firmware versions have non-working hdmi, so I flashed dozen or so different VBIOS ROMs that I acquired from techpowerup...

                Philips 55OLED803/12 HDMI ports "half" defective
                by Wittie
                Hello everyone, Please excuse my poor English, but I'm using Google Translate ^^ I'm having a problem with the HDMI and USB ports on my 55OLED803/12. It's no longer possible to connect an HDMI device and see the picture. No matter which port I use, it only recognizes the device as an input source and displays it in the list (BD player, Fire TV, etc.). However, the actual picture doesn't appear in the same state. My home theater system also runs via the BD player - it still receives a signal and plays the sound correctly (e.g., from the TV program or an app like Netflix). This works with both HDMI...

                HDMI ports not working - Panasonic model number TX-P50XT50B 50"
                by BadTelly
                Hi,

                Suddenly all HDMI ports stopped working on a Panasonic 50" TV. This is model number TX-P50XT50B and has worked fine for years.

                The TV turns on but no joy on either HDMI-1 or HDMI-2 and I've tested it using an input device and cable that works fine on another TV via HDMI.

                Thank you in advance for any help/ advice.

                Kind regards,

                Bad Telly

                Samsung UN50MU6070FXZA - HDMI Ports Not Working
                by grimacelord
                Hello. Samsung UN50MU6070FXZA here with both HDMI ports non-working. I have already verified multiple sources and multiple cables to ensure it isn't something simple like that as well as resets and software updates.

                I took the mainboard out and gave it a look. Nothing looks bad or burned. All of the HDMI pins are nice, none are broken at their pads either.

                Following the traces, it looks like both HDMI ports trace back to the main CPU which does seem to get hotter than I think it should despite it's (rather poor) heatsink.

                Since the HDMI controller appears...
