Phillips 55PFL5901/F7 (Serial No. : DS1) Boot Loop

[jasonbay13]

Tv powers on when plugged in and displays the phillips logo for about 10 seconds then shuts off and then comes back on to display the logo over and over.

I've read it's possible to upgrade the firmware but I cannot find the site where I read that anymore.

Thanks, but I don't see how to update the firmware if the tv does not power on to where I can bring up the menu. Unless I'm blind, I am due for a new prescription ��

Did you have the auto update and tv always connected to the internet?
Have you contacted Philips to ask a restoring software? For some models they have it

I'm not sure I understand the joke about contacting phillips.

With the flash drive in all I can get the tv to do is continue it's boot loop. I've tried power and menu and home buttons and no difference.

It is not a common update software, it's a restoring script and archive, furthermore the usual mode to force update is to keep pressed OK or arrow down when you plug power cord into wall... or when you turn on.. now i don't.remeber..
