LCD TV Model 32SL415U - remote dead?

I have a 32ls415u that I purchased about 90 days ago. As of last night, the remote seems to only control the volume on the tv, but nothing else. I tried changing batteries and that had no affect. Is it possible i hit a button that changed the mode? If so, any idea what button that might've been?

I also had the same problem with my Toshiba model 32SL415U. My remote went completely dead after 11 months. We contacted Toshiba, and since it was still under warranty, they sent us a new remote. We received the new remote in December 2012. As of last night, 3/25/13, the new remote is dead, again! We contacted Toshiba today, and they refused to send us another remote. So I have a TV that is 1 year, 4 months old, and I am unable to use any features on it that cannot be controlled with a cable box remote.
Needless to say, this will be the last Toshiba product that I will ever own! I have had many TV's over the years, and never had a remote die on me - and this TV has gone through 2 so far in less than a year and a half! If anyone else has experienced this and has any advice, please let me know. Or if anyone has this TV and has purchased a cheap universal remote that will control all the features (particularly accessing Nexflix), please let me know. Thanks!

Insignia LED-LCD HDTV Model: NS-32E570A11

I am Handicapped & Disabled & Must be hooked up to medical experiment for 6-7 hours a day & remain in bed & awake during this time. I purchased this TV : Insignia LED-LCD HDTV Model: NS-32E570A11
after my 7 month old Dynex™ - 32" Class / 720p / 60Hz D/ LCD HDTV DVD Combo
Model:DX-32LD150A11 refused to hold & recognize in it's memory HD channels. Guess I should have read the posts from other Dynex users, cuz there are a lot of problems with Dynex.
Even one of the Managers at my Best Buy store told me that her Dynex same exact TV did the exact same thing.   I am hoping that once repair is done that I will get a "RA" number so I can get some of my money back on this insignia TV.
I do not See any difference with the Insigna TV & it is not as clear at home as it was in the store.
I have Time Warner cable with extended basic cable & within the last 6 months TWC had installed much larger cables underground & the cable is not the problem.
I did notice that in the store they only had very few channels.   Do they "Tweak" the channels in the store &/or power them differently to get sharper clearer images??
I am ready to take the LED Insignia TV back next time I am in town as it is 26 miles each way to get to the closest store.
I should be able to buy a TV & not have to worry that it is going to die on me. My old 36"Toshiba with a big tube lasted 16+ years.
Any suggestions on "RELIABLE" LCD 32" TV's that I can afford on just my SS income??

Stores do nothing to "tweak" channels in the store. TVs have many dozens of settings that can be changed by a user at home, and sometiems have presets to switch between certain values that the manufacturer has deemed "optimal" for certain viewing situations. If none of the preset settings offer the picture you desire, you will either need to learn how to change the settings to fit your viewing situation, or pay for a professional calibration.
It took me almost 6 months before I got my TV settings the way that I wanted them to be, using the calibration settings on various Disney DVDs, Star Wars DVDs, and special calibration DVDs, and constantly having a critical eye for everything I watched. After all of that time and effort, my TVs are about as close to profesionally calibrated as I can get them.
Have you had Time Warner out to the house to verify that it's not actually a cable problem? Just because they put "bigger cables" in the ground doesn't mean that the signal to your home is any better. Most cable and satellite companies compress their signal quite a bit on HD, and the quality suffers as a result.

Cisco LCD-110Q-PRO-55 Remote Code

I have the above monitor in a commercial environment and in a recent move we lost remote and manual. I have searched as much as I can via Cisco website and the net to find a manual to download or a remote control model but no luck. Cisco seems to have the later model TV manuals available online but not this model.
Via the original box we still have it was manufatured by Tech-Giant and then distributed by Quanta Displays Inc, neither of those companies have responded to me and probably dont care. I purchased a generic remote to tried the scan codes but no luck in finding codes to operate TV.
Would appreciate anyone helping to find a manual and codes to enter on remote or where to find a remote.
Cheers

JD, the LCD-110Q-PRO55 is a Cisco monitor so if I wanted to contact the manufacturer of the display I would have to do it through TAC since they are the support arm of the manufacturer.
I know all about other manufacturers and the fact that some use ascii and some use hex. I can successfully control Samsung, Panasonic, Clarity, NEC and more. Most of these companies make it easy to get the codes right from the website but Cisco is either refusing to or simply doesn't know any better.
BTW, If I could have found the codes via google, I wouldn't have posted here.

Re: LCD TV 40BV701B No remote to press OK

I have a LCD TV 40BV701B and I have lost the remote to it. i did a first time installation and i need to press OK. I do not know how to press OK without a remote to do it

Hi
I completely agree with keith.
The remote control is an essential part in order to use the TV effectively.
There are different places where you could purchase such part For example amazon provides compatible parts even if they look different

What's the latest Jan. 2010 spec LCD panel model #? (e.g. 9CBD, 9CA0, etc.)

Just wondering if anyone who has a 2010 assembled 13" MBP or recently warrantied MBP can confirm the latest Apple display spec model # (e.g. My MBP was built in Sept.09 and has a 9CBD panel) that is being used?
Got the dreaded light leak developing on the side and hinge edges of my MBP -- but considering that my colours/calibration are pretty much bang on for my eyes as well as the fact that I've painstakingly applied an Anti-Glare film 100% free of lint bubbles LOL -- my conundrum if the latest spec'd panels are really any better or if it's still a lottery on whether you get a good panel if replaced under warranty. The last thing I want is to go backwards in quality!
Also if you've gone through the warranty process I'm curious on whether you have any say on whether it is another 9CBD that goes in or if you can specify to them that you're only satisfied if a Jan. 2010 9CA0 (or whatever # it is) is put in?
I am planning to wait to see if Apple quietly updates the LCD panels in the MBP line at the Jan. 27 iTablet/iPhone OS4.0 event before taking it in anyways, but hopefully someone can shed some light into how Apple have been going about dealing with the light leak issues. Thanks again.

Thanks for your kind cmments matrixxzero. I agree rockykoston I will replace my keyboard eventually myself too, with all the stories here I'm terrified to hand my laptop into service, apart from not having the spare time, Idon't want it to come back scatched, damaged and/or unfixed. That doesn't augur well for Lenovo guarantees. I am fully cpable of servicing it myself but many customers aren't and shouldn't have to.
As I say the other issue is model lines. Our Chinese friends have proven they can maintain quality and innovate now but their shere manufacturing muscle means it's all too easy to have too many models and too many variants with too much crossover.
Why drop a great design like the Z710, only let down by a middling to poor Nvidia chip and introduce new 17.3" models with absolutely no maintenance covers and sealed batteries!! They should have upped the Nvidia chip (the same as the Y50) and a better WLAN card. Same with the 15.6" models - evolve the Z510 to have a case like the Z50 but the same or better components again. Similarly the Y50 should have been an evolution of the Y510 not a step down.
Lenovo has definitely gone cheap in the upper end of the consumer range, when they needn't as there are tons of cheap laptops from the brand.
Most of the reviews I came across for the Z510 described it as having very good build quality and since I changed laptops three times from the same store within my purchase period I had chance to compare closely, with at least Toshiba and Acer. I would not agree with these reviews it's OK but not great. The metal upper case fooled me a bit but it's less sturdy than a cheap i3 HP laptop it replaced. Again for around a $1000 it should be better.

WiFi connectivity to LG LCD TV (model 32LD550)

I have recently purchased a web enabled LCD Television that I am trying to hook up to my airport extreme. I have purchased the correct "dongle" from LG to allow it to sync up to my wireless network, but am having a hard time gaining access. I find my network on the list the TV pulls up, enter my password, it tries to connect, but is unable to get past the "Gateway". Is there a setting I need to check on my AirPort to allow access? Thanks in advance.

Right now it's just a hunch, but I had a similar problem when my new Xbox 360 would not connect to my 5 GHz 802.11n network even though I knew its built-in wireless was supposed to support this. When I reconfigured my router to provide a 2.4 GHz 802.11n network, the Xbox had not trouble connecting.
By default, your simultaneous dual-band Extreme will broadcast the same Network Name for both radios. It may be that this adapter is having trouble with that. I would recommend that you rename the 5 GHz network with a different name. If this doesn't resolve the problem, you can always rename it back.
With each radio having a unique name, try connecting the TV to each to see if it can now connect to one or the other. Please post back your results.

Samsung 42 inch LCD HD Model #LN S4041D

I have a samsung lcd tv I bought December 2006. I have sound and NO picture. The samsung website and book tell you to check cables...blah, blah, blah. A 2 year old $1500 tv has an intermittent picture. Does anyone have this problem? Any ideas on what may be wrong? Geek Squad is $150 to even look at the tv. Any help is appreciated. Thanks

It's pretty difficult to go wrong in terms of picture quality these days. It's more about build quality and reliability. Main differentiators nowadays are brightness and contrast. Viewing angle used to be a differentiator but nearly everything is excellent nowadays. If it's bright enough for your viewing environment and you're happy with the black levels, and have confirmed it's viewable at all angles you might want to view it from, most of the rest is just marketing fluff (including any refresh rates higher than 60 Hz.)
I have a 46" AQUOS and am VERY happy with it. I paid about as much for it as that 60" unit costs now...
A used 46" 1080p Samsung for $500 is a pretty good deal too if it is in good condition. Don't buy it sight unseen - Test a few of the inputs and make sure there are no critical defects. (Cosmetic stuff like scratches to the bezel don't really matter, although they can be evidence of abuse - look for weirdness in the displayed picture with a good source such as a Blu-Ray player or at least high def digital cable via an HDMI input.)

Fiber "Deploy Data Model to LCDS" fails: model tag not recognized

I get an XML parse error when trying to deploy my data model in Flash Builder 4 Beta 2 with the Modeler Plugin installed. It says it cannot recognize model, which is the base tag. I know there has been some issues with this in Eclipse also, but it's particularly troubling because I use this process to figure out which pieces of the FML are causing Fiber to not start on my server.

LCD on MuVo Slim is dead.

The LCD on my MuVo Slim 256 player is not displaying any text or images. Up until now, the player has been great.
The MP3 player still works, that is, it will turn on/off and will play music, but I cannot see anything on the display. The display will light-up blue when powered on/off, but no text or images...nothing. I cannot tell how much battery is left, what song I'm on, etc.
Unfortunately, because I cannot see the menu options, I can't determine if the LCD's settings are just too low to be displayed or what the issue is. Very frustrating.
I had previously downloaded the firmware update in January to address another issue, which it did. I formatted the MP3 player and re-installed the firmware, but I still can't read the LCD.
Thanks for your help.Mike B.

If you've updated the firmware and it hasn't returned then unfortunately it has failed. You'll need to contact Creative Support.

Toshiba LCD TV Model 37av500u

I have a Toshiba TV and it plays the DVDs fine. Exept if I pause my DVD for a short amount of time, then the TV stops receiving the DVD signal and the screen goes black. I have to turn the DVD off/on in order for it to re detect the signal. Likewise, the Toshiba TV doesn't pick up my HDMI at all signal at all even though i know for sure the DVR is working (it works on another TV). When I hook up the DVR, it displays "no signal detected." I suspect this is bc the DVR takes a few minutes to warm up and then the same issue like the DVD comes into play, ie. if it doesn't detect a signal then the Toshiba TV simply stops trying. Turning off/on the DVR doesnt work however like doing the DVD. Its weird but I am sure the issues are related somehow. Some reason the TV stops receiving singals, ie it has a time out.

Rather than cycling the power on the DVR, what if you switch the currently active input on the TV? What if you turn the TV off and then back on again?

Hooking Mac Mini 1.83ghz to Sharp LCD TV

I have a Mac Mini 1.83 ghz Intel Core 2 Duo that I'm trying to hook up to a Sharp Aquos 32" LCD TV model LC-32GA5U. I've hooked the Mac Mini up to the TV using the DVI port on the back with a DVI/DVI cable, DVI/VGA cable with the DVI adapter to the Mac Mini, and a DVI/HDMI cable to a HDMI router, all of which have come up with a black screen, except the DVI/HDMI option. That started with the usual light gray screen and then it went to black.
The Mini starts up fine, I hear the drive turning, the front light comes on and I hear the start up chime. I hooked the Mac Mini to a 15" Dell LCD flat screen monitor with a DVI/DVI cable and it worked fine. I was able to run through the initial setup procedures without any problems, so I know it's not an issue with the graphics output or the cable.
If anyone has any ideas, they would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you for you time.

I would stick with using a DVI-to-DVI cable per the user manual, page 32, which says to use INPUT 5 (DVI) to connect a PC. Make sure you have a DVI-D cable and not a DVI-I cable. Select INPUT 5 by pressing the INPUT button on the Sharp remote and then press MENU to see if there are any options that need to be set for INPUT 5.

TV remote control reset procedure from tech support

I was able to get this information from Toshiba tech support. It is not posted in the Forums or Knowledge Base that I could find.
I have a 42" LCD TV model 42RV530U. The top row of buttons (on/off, picture size were the 2 I needed today) on the remote stopped working. Other buttons work fine.I tried new batteries and the TV reset procedure. Neither worked.
Here is what tech support said: Remove the batteries from the remote. Then press every button on the remote from top to bottom. EVERY button. Then re-insert the batteries. BTW, this did not work for me. So I'm ordering a new remote. They are only $19.99 plus shipping and handling. Having tech support talk you through the above remote control reset procedure is $35 if your TV is out of warranty. So the cheapest solution is just buy a new remote.
Hope this helps you today.
Cheers!

Sorry, the problem is solved. I was lazy reading the instructions and I have figured it out. The instructions DO help you!

42HL196 causing IR remote interference

My 42HL196 appears to be emitting modulated IR light which is causing interference with the IR remote of one of the set top devices I use with this TV. I know the problem is coming from the TV backlight, since the problem arises immediately when I turn the tv ON, and goes away when the TV is turned off or when I hold a towel or blanket in front of the screen. I didn't think this was technically possible from CCFL backlighting, until a quick web search of "LCD IR Interference" turned up a surprizing number of pages of links describing the problem with various LCD and plasma TVs from a number of manufacturers. After reading some of these, further experimenting revealed that the problem with my set occurs for a few minutes right after it is turned ON, after which the set top box starts correctly receiving IR remote commands again.
It was suggested in many of the search links that one simply wait a few minutes for the TV to "warm up" before trying to use the affected remotes, others suggested disabling auto brightness/backlight settings of the TV, or placing tape or thin paper over the front IR window of the affected device. Still others recommend replacing the TV with a model that uses LED backlighting, which, so far, haven't been reported with this problem (I've confirmed the absence of the problem with my other set , an LED-backlit Sharp Aquos).
These are all unacceptable solutions to me, so I opted instead to minimize the amount of TV panel light reaching the front of the device without diminishing its sensitivity to the remote. The device couldn't be relocated from its position on the TV stand, so I glued a small, 3/4inch long 3/8inch diameter black plastic pipe right onto the IR window of the device, having the open pipe end facing the sofa. This seems to work well as long as there is nothing close to the TV unit that can reflect panel light back into the added "telescope hood". The remote range doesn't seem to be affected as long as I use it directly in front of the TV stand, so I can live with this solution. The added wart on the front of the set top device is a bit clunky looking, but certainly no worse than the piece of masking tape suggested by some. I suspect the pipe length could be shortened but I didn't experiment any further.
I note that there are a few Toshiba owners on this forum with similar complaints, albeit not specifically about the 42HL196. I discovered in my search one manufacturer (not Toshiba) actually admitted on their support website to a design flaw in certain series LCD TV models, offering a free circuit board replacement in those sets where the problem was experienced. I have not seen any similar response from Toshiba, at least not to the few complaints on this forum regarding IR remote interference.

called toshiba today, neither they nor the engineer's manager were aware that the engineer failed to turn up.... personally i've had enough.
i can't see a way forward other than legal action. i've lost two days due to Toshiba messing up, and their typical reponce seems to be try updating a random driver or change a random part... i cannot afford to carry on with guess work. i asked for them to replace the laptop and was led on a wild goosechase... had to speak to 5 departments, eventually, one of the managers told me the case was escalated and i had no option but to wait another 48 hours.... how can i trust them to get back to me after they've repeatedly messed up? and to add insult to injury, the manager gave me a contact number i could try calling his department on should i need to... i know i wrote the number down correctly because the entire conversation was recorded... and guess what? he gave the wrong number to his own department. i found the right number online, tried calling, was told he just returned to his desk, was put on hold, 5 mins later was told he was in a meeting and will call back... did i get a call back? nope.
i will wait until wednesday afternoon, their 48 hours... after that it's a letter to their head office, 7 days to resolve the problem, should they fail to do it, i am taking them to small claims court for replacement laptop or refund, + expences for lost time and expences.
well done toshiba.
i've had enough. will not be updating this forum anymore.... i'll now let the courts decide.
