    Samsung HP-R4252 vertical lines issue.

    Hey guys, it's been really dry here I happen to pick this thing up supercheap it seems like it's got to be either a logic board or mainboard as tapping on the back of the unit changes the way the lines Flickr or change colors or sometimes the goes away sort of.

    Going to crack it open tomorrow and clean up some ribbon cable connections and see, the service menu didn't have any test patterns I'm assuming those are generated from the logic board.


    I like these HP Samsung plasma panels they have a really good picture for a 720P seem to be pretty bulletproof too, pretty slow on getting panels from my sources so I thought I would try and save this ole girl.

    When I ran the screen protection tools in the retail UI, the lines on the scrolling bar did not appear. When running the white wash it looked like I was seeing slight minimal image retention of the lines and UI text it would eventually appear to dither away.

      Tried jumping the test-pattern jig on the back of the control panel? (pins 3-4 of 4pin header)

      I'm not a big fan of the earlier Sammy panels, too much dithering and IR. If you want a decent cheapy panel for a bedroom or such a PZ80/PX80/PZ70/PX70 series Panasonic can't really be beaten. Power consumption is the only real disadvantage, the 1080p sets can pull 500W.

        Gonna do that here in a bit. I don't plan on keeping this one if the repair is cheap I'll probably just end up giving it to somebody.


        I got a samsung pn43d450a2d for the bedroom

          So I finally found the test patterns, a small set of test patterns in DNIe lite and quite a few test patterns in PDP Options.

          All of them passed, I am assuming (i have not cracked it open yet) that these are main board tests since the shopjimmy photo shows jumpers for logic board tests.

            I'm never certain which patterns are generated by the control board but on one particular Panasonic set I was able to tell by disconnecting the LVDS cable while it was running. On one set of patterns the screen went blank, but on the others, the pattern remained. Take care while doing this of course.

              Naturally!

              When looking at the main board on SJ. I didn't see a LVDS cable connection, again it might be on the back of the main or I missed it.

                There will be one. Goes between main board & control board.

                  Ended up being a bad LVDS connector on the main board, I had it patched up enough to see it work with a clear picture and then the connector fell right off the board.

                  Apparently this is a pretty well known issue with this panel, I had some store credit at SJ and got a replacement board lol although I really dont know why as I have a feeling this panel will not sell.

                  Seems to have a pretty decent 720p picture though for an old Sammy Plasma, its built like a tank too.


                  I got a Panny TH-42PZ700U that will be taking up my time now, 7 blinks of love!

                    Screen Display Vertical Multicolor Lines
                    by Stanley1843
                    Hello, I have a screen in where sometimes when I open it pop-up vertical multicolor lines (I would say the most of them are green). If I tun off and turn on the screen the lines dissapear or if I leave open the screen after approximately five minutes the lines gone. I measured the below voltages on the main PCB and on the T-CON board and the voltages are the same when it doesn’t display the vertical lines and when it displays the vertical lines. Also, I cleaned all the connectors very good with IPA. I moved back and forth the connectors and the COF tabs but the vertical lines didn't displayed...

                    Samsung Series 9 - BIOS issue
                    by Kjell
                    After installing Linux, I can no longer enter the BIOS of my Samsung Series 9 (NP900X3C) laptop. When pressing [F2] during boot I simply get a black screen. Same thing when pressing [F10] and choosing "Setup" from the "App Menu" tab. Apparently this is a relatively common issue with Samsung laptops of that generation, but unfortunately i haven't been able to resolve the issue (yet).

                    Things i've tried so far; reinstalled Windows 10, checked for redundant boot entries, tried to factory reset using the emergency keyhole, attempted to clear the NVRAM by physically...

                    Strange LG TV issue : Image vertical lines in black screen
                    by Ancient1
                    Hi

                    Asking for a friend.

                    I'm used to black vertical line in otherwise good image - probable solution is a rubber to push and tighten the COFs bonding.
                    but here its the opposite !

                    TV has new T-con = same issue
                    A missing panel voltage would have global effect

                    So , what should one do ? how can I find where the fault is ?

                    Thanks !...

                    Samsung UN46C8000XFXZA vertical bars/horizontal lines
                    by x_orange90_x
                    I posted about this previously but didn't get any response, and I have some troubleshooted a bit so I have more info.

                    The screen is full of horizontal "gaps" or lines that distort the picture badly, and after about 10 seconds of powering it on the screen starts to fill with red vertical bars that take on the horizontal pattern. After the screen filled with the red bars, they instantly vanished and then slowly started to reappear. I initially thought it was tab bonding failure, but after getting down to them and pressing each one I find zero change in the picture. I went...

                    Thin stable coloured vertical lines on Samsung UN65NU6900FXZC come and go
                    by polaro
                    Greetings,

                    I've bought a used Samsung UN65NU6900FXZC LED TV. It worked fine for some time and then developed, at first, a single very thin (1 pixel) vertical stable blue line, from top to bottom, close to the left edge of the screen. Now it's 3 lines on the left. When I connect HDMI sources the number of the thin lines grow. After disconnecting and cold discharging I am back to 2 lines. The lines disappear at a rate of 15-20 minutes per line. So it does not look like a damaged LED panel. Any advice? Thanks...
