If it's not on Samsung's website how do you know there is an update ? Not publishing one suggests there isn't one. -

Re: Samsung pn43d450a2dxza firmware update
I downloaded the update mentioned and the TV does not recognize it. I downloaded the file form the link above and unzipped it to USB. On the USB I get 2 folders T-MST4DEUC and T-MSV4DEUC. When I stick the USB in the TV does not find an upgrade.
I also found an old You Tube video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PnOtcjs3snU) that shows how to download a firmware upgrade from the Samsung site. But that does not work either since the Samsung site has changed and the firmware upgrade is no longer available. Is the firmware upgrade no longer recommended since it was taken down. I have heard of TVs not working after firmware upgrades.Comment

They take them off their sites, not sure why, I think it's because they would rather have you buy another tv from them than give you the option to fix it with a simple firmware load. Could try contacting them, tell them you need the firmware, has worked for some.Comment

I tried the Samsung tech support but they say there is no update for this TV. Maybe there was an issue with the update and it got taken down. I will just hope the TV works a few more years then I will get another one when the boards fail again.Comment
