    UN40EH5300 Service Menu / Any Way to Rotate the Image?

    Quick question for you guys here. I have a Samsung UN60ES6100 sitting on my bench. The TV had a bad main board and the replacement is around $80-$100. I had a brand new main board out of a UN40EH5300 lying around which is of the same series minus the wifi option. I've installed it in the TV and it works, but the image is now upside down. I realize of course that the T-con was on the top of the screen on the 40" and is on the bottom on the 60". That being said, I saw in this thread the button sequence to pull up the service menu on a similar model.

    My question is, does anyone know if there is an option in here (this would be the UN40EH5300 of course because that's the board I'm using) to rotate the display? I'd rather not spend the money on replacement main board if I don't have to. I guess an alternative would be to just sell the TV to someone that wants to mount it upside down but that may be a tough one.

    Thanks in advance,

    Aaron

    What about just changing it to 60" model settings?

      Hmmm. I hadn't had a chance to look at all the options closely and wanted to ask before I messed something up. I'm at work now but will see if there's a model option when I get home this evening.

        Re-flash firmware for UN60ES6100 should fix the issue

          Thought I'd let everyone know that after 30-40 tries at different screen selections followed by a factory reset each time, I found one that flipped the image. Apparently, there are more models that use screens with the T-con mounted on the top than the bottom. Anyway, I know have a working 60" smart TV for $10 plus the 40EH5300 board value (which I already had on hand). Only issues are there is one missing USB port and no wifi. Smart functions work fine when connected to Ethernet.

            Nice fix, can't complain getting a 60" tv for buttons.

            What settings did you change? Incase someone else is forced to buy to 40" board to fix their 60" model.

              You enter the service menu on this one by pressing mute, 1, 8, 2 power starting with the TV turned off. Once you are in it, you go to control then select the option to change the screen setting. The one that worked for me was 60HAxxxxx on this one. It still shows the base model as UN40EH5300 but the screen now shows as what I selected. I did unplug it for a few hours to make sure it didn't revert and seems to be fine. Just a note, the 46EH5300, 50EH5300 and I'm sure others are the same basic board as well.

                Here's a couple pictures. First is upside down (you can see the Samsung logo at the top). 2nd is after changing the screen setting.
