@graceglory.
Picture below shows the way my TV is behaving. But there's sound.
It's a 32 inch Samsung TV.
What could be the problem?
Thank you.

May be, WSoD. It means, The White Screen of Death. “White Death” is an error the operating system. That’s what i assume, but have a good tech inspect it as it could also be due to some components failures.

I’m so sorry for slow response, apologies boss.

If it’s brand new, you’re not cheated, but you’ve bought a fake TV. If it’s fairly used, you cheated the seller, except if it’s an obsolete TV, in that case, both party are well balanced.

Picture of the TV is very important.

New or used?

But this is medicine after death.

I don't understand oo. You mean the price should be higher or something ?

Hi, I have a clean Bhrum 32inc tv, that needs a screen. The repairer told me it cost 30 to fix the screen. I'm thinking is selling as is.
Any headway?

Sorry, like Graceglory said earlier, you probably bought the fake one. Sorry once again.

Hello, the TV is no use without the screen, the screen is the TV. That’s why screen cost a lot more. Nobody will buy a tv without screen. I can assure you without the screen it would worth only about 4-5k.

hello all, my LG 42" went off while we were watching the TV and wouldn't turn on.
so someone introduced me to a technician who came around to pick up the tv and collected 12k upfront, saying he would get back to me.
he called me today asking me to pay additional 65k for the repair again....just to repair a tv that just went off while watching.
1. pls is this guy trying to rip me off?..
2. what in the tv could be as expensive as 77k?

what kind of tv is it? If it's Samsung, go and collect your tv ASAP.
Look for Samsung care centers in Lagos. send them a message. The guy may not know what is wrong with the tv and has the intention of contracting the repair job out to another person

He already ripped you off off and off, boss. LG 42” that must be an LCD, the old LED or even Plasma, the 77K will buy you another one.
The problem with the TV should be one of two things: Power component or the picture board.

[color=#550000][/color][left][/left] I would like the house to suggest on a good TV brand/product one can purchase for a 32" LED TV. Budget's within 60 to 70k.
Also how would one recognize an original or a fake tv in the market.?

Thanks for your detailed response sir.

A repairer priced it 5k tho but I don't know why I'm still keeping it.
Kindly lemme know when you have a Sweet Sony not more than 80k.

Thanks again

Well, that’s one of the characteristics of a faulty board. Do well to look out for a good tech guy to see to it.

Warranty no longer valid,it's past the stipulated time

Or just take it back to the shop where you bought it from. If they are licenced LG vendor, they have their LG certified engineers that handle these things. The TV will be registered with like say 2k or something, then you will fill in a form with your phone number, address, the problem with the TVand the receipt number (if you bought it there). After a few days, they will call to inform you of the problem they found with the device and how much it is going to cost to fix. Then you will be categorically asked if you will or will not give a go ahead with the repairs based on the price and the issues discovered.

Usually the repairs is not just the ordinary repairs done by roadside electricians or those Alaba repairs, the licenced distributors simply swap out the defective component and put in an LG certified new part, so you're assured of some authenticity in parts.

The downside of the distributor guys is that if your TV or electronics is dated and no longer being manufactured by LG, they will not even give you audience. Also if it is confirmed that is it not a genuine LG product (especially the fake ones sold at Alaba and Co), they will not even give you a minute further. They will just ask you to try out the roadside electricians. I had an LG plasma TV crap out on me like that some 13 years after purchase. This TV is so neatly used that you won't doubt it if you're told it was bought 6 months ago. So I took it to a distributor quite different from the one I purchased it from. They called their engineer and he asked for the model number to confirm if it is genuine LG product. Then he asked that he be given a few minutes to go thru their directory. Later he called back to say that though he verified it to be a genuine LG product, but the model is out of production. So they won't be able to take it in for repairs as the replacement parts is no longer being manufactured. He then suggested I try out the roadside electronics repairers. Of course the roadside guy eventually got it repaired by swapping in a completely different board with components differently placed, so he had to melt out some holes on the TV plastic casing to accommodate the differences. Some factory holes on the TV case therefore ended up being redundant.

Good morning sir,
Thank for the good work you have been doing on this forum.
I have an Hisense Smart TV that refuse to connect to any wireless connection.
I have tried all I could all to no avail.

Fro my research I came to understand that the TV needs software update. I couldn't access the latest firmware from their site.

I do not know if you could assist on how I can get the firmware so that I can update through USB

GRACEGLORY:



Solved

How did you get the problem solved in case people here encounter similar issues in the future?

starz100:
Hello Graceglory, and experts in the house, my new Lg tv suddenly starts dimming light every 20minutes or so. I normally restore the brightness by pressing any of the remote buttons. Please how can this be corrected

This is likely a setting problem. Perhaps the adaptive brightness setting is enabled. It dims when the ambient light is too dull, and brightens when the ambience light in the room is very bright. More like how your phones works when put in auto brightness mode or sun readability mode.

I need Y-sus board for my plasma ooo. Buying it from ebay isn't easy.

Hi good day...pls is there any solution to temporary image retention on 43 inch screen

"image retention," I hope you’re not mistaking "burn-in" for image retention sir. For Image retention is temporary, but burn-in is permanent.
"image retention," goes away in the process of time.

I made mention of temporary so as to be precise because it goes away after some time and I'm seeking a permanent solution to it sir...are there any recommendations you can give me?

Evening house, I currently need this lcd tv board. vestel 17mb70-5p

Please I need Samsung un55h6350af replacement screen

GRACEGLORY:




It's the led light around the screen. Please, give to a technician to fix.


Thanks

This one happened before my very eyes just now. Watching a movie and my TV just developed these colourful lines. Dunno what caused it. TV was connected to a stabiliser. LG web os TV.

What's the fault and how much will I use to fix it? Make these technicians no chop me dry.
