Samsung LE32C530

Jul 22, 2010 5:04AM PDT

Ok so ive downloaded th latest firmware for this tv which is T-TDT5DEUC-1019.0 but everytime i go to software upgrade it always says that there are no files to be upgraded! I know how to do the upgrade properly as i also have a B650 and ive never had such problems with it.

The software version on my C530 at the moment is T-MSX5DEUC-1002.1, does anyone know how i can upgrade the firmware or what the problem may be??

xtal191,

If you're not experiencing a problem, a firmware update may not even be necessary.

That said, the files need to be unzipped on the PC, and launched on the PC. It will then load the necessary files to the thumb-drive.

Well the TV should update the firmware if im having problems or not. Do i need to update it with older firmwares?? For example update from T-MSX5DEUC-1002.1 to T-TDT5DEUC-1004.1 to T-TDT5DEUC-1006.1 etc?? If so where can i found the older firmwares for the TV???

Thanks for the reply!!!

xtal191,

If I'm understanding the question correctly, you can update to the latest firmware at any point, and still get the fixes from the previous update versions. So finding previous versions and updating them one-at-a-time is not necessary. The latest firmware will have all the previous updates included.

Does that help?

xtal191,

It may be available on the website, but not on the server. The Samsung customer service center in your area would be able to better answer that.

FW now called T-TDT5DEUC but 32C530 has T-TDT5DEUC
Jul 27, 2010 12:04AM PDT

Hello,

same problem here. 32C530 FW T-MSX5DEUC 1002. New FW is called T-TDT5DEUC 1019. Put it on usb (flashed my other 46B650 with this usb stick, so it is 100% okay) and the 32C530 can#t find a new FW.

So I think there is a Problem with the name.

T-TDT5DEUC is the new FW bur my 32C530 waits for a T-TDT5DEUC. So the tv thinks this is not a FW for me. Where can I find a FW for this version?

LE32C530 (T-MSX5DEUC)
Jul 27, 2010 1:45AM PDT

Hi,

I live in switzerland and my native language is french.

I've bought the LE32C530 recently and I've the same problem, the tv can't find the firmware on the key.
I've tested with 3 different keys, tested to rename the folder T-TDT5DEUC in T-MSX5DEUC it doesn't work. (the keys were formated before)
I've tested versions T-TDT5DEUC 1019 and T-TDT5DEUC 1018

I want to updade the firmware because of a CI+ bug and a subtitle bug.

I've sent an email to samsung support switzerland, no answer for the moment.

My version is T-MSX5DEUC-1002.1

I've made a websearch of "T-MSX5DEUC"

http://www.google.com/webhp?hl=en#hl=en&source=hp&q=T-MSX5DEUC&aq=f&aqi=&aql=&oq=&gs_rfai=&pbx=1&fp=6a9830dd42f5b017

It seems that all people with the T-MSX5DEUC version can't update.

Break News! Don't update these firmwares!
Jul 27, 2010 1:55AM PDT

I tolk with a team service on korea where this soft is born. Is a global defective with upgrading firmwares on TV 4,5 series. Don't try upgrade else you'll damage Flash memory chip on TV then you need replacing tv board on service & you lose warranty.

to clarify, please call your customer service for more details.

dannybadea,

I can't confirm this - I just have no idea, nor would I. I can't speak for issues outside of the U.S. I would also recommend that people who are attempting to update contact the Samsung customer service center in their region.

In the U.S., the warranty is not lost if the firmware causes the issue, but that may or may not vary for other regions. Again, I can only speak for procedures in the U.S.

Explanations please!
Jul 27, 2010 9:41AM PDT

Why Samsung sells TVs with software that can not be upgraded slightly by consumers? My TV is manufactured in Hungary and sold in Romania. TVs are the same as in the U.S.. Same hardware, software ... TV standards (NTSC, PAL) ... is there any difference? Procedures that are used in the U.S. can be applied to all other countries (regions). If you are a representative from Samsung, you need to know what's wrong why can not easily upgrade the software by consumers. We need some clear steps in this direction. Try to explain whether or not you are able to guide us? I want an explanation in this regard. I gave money to charity this TV. I was recommended to take this TV to many friends. Thank you.

Jul 27, 2010 2:56AM PDT

So far nothing. I have to wait a bit until the software that Koreans do something. Until then, patience and tobacco. Once again, no longer tortured to upgrade your TV, you risk damaging it.
