Samsung LCD calibration misstep - Page 5

post #121 of 133
For Samsung TVs, where is the factory data within the service menu stored? On what part(s) of the TV? If I messed something up in the service menu, replacing what part(s) would restore the service menu fully?

In other words, the service menu and its contents/data exist on what serviceable part(s) within the TV?

???if you mess setting in your service menu all you got do is recalibrate the inputs and stop F@#king with it
there no backup of the service menu of your tv anywhere and and there is no way to access the internal memory and swap files
but you find how let me know

yes you could replace the tv cca (circuit card assembly ) were setting r store in theory, but still going to need calibration period
if you need help to put your service menus the way it was ,,,post model ,not serial and what is wrong

I finally had time to try to fix my crazy contrast control. I was one of those users who accidentally activated HDMI CALIBRATION. I didn't make any other adjustments other than accidentally activating HDMI Calibration in the service menu.

Even after using the checkerboard pattern mentioned earlier here my contrast control was acting crazy. The picture would alternate from bright to dark with each press of the contrast control.

Here is what fixed it on my LN-T5281F.
Go to the SVP-LX submenu in the service menu. My Roffset, Goffset, and Boffset were all set to 50388. Set them all to 68 which is the default setting in the service manual. Yes, that's 50388 to 68, big difference.
My RGain, GGain, and BGain were set to 29600. Set them to 294.
These figures will later change after you do your HDMI activation, but still be in the ballpark of these adjusted figures. Not the crazy figures in the thousands.

Go do the HDMI calibration after you setup the correct checkerboard.

Previously the HDMI calibration process would take about 1 minute with the picture altering between different tints. With the adjusted figures the HDMI calibration process took about 3 seconds, maybe less.

My contrast control works like normal again and as far as I can tell the TV is totally back to normal. When you exit the Service Menu and restart your TV you'll need to reset your picture settings again but that should be relatively easy.

Hope this helps anyone stuck with the same problem.

Sub Brightness 128
Sub Contrast 128
all of the others are 512. Can you tell me are those the right one`s cause i think i loose a lil bit of detail in the dark areas. Thanks in advance.

P.S - HDMI calibration is success btw just tell me what are the right numbers for the White balance options in the service menu

anyone know how to get the checkerboard pattern to stay on the screen for hdmi calibration? I can cycle through them but once i select it, it goes away while i hop into the adc menu.

I've tried some other patterns via my ps3 both on 720p and 1080p (i believe 720p is the correct pattern and output) I've also tried in full rgb and limited but on all occasions all the settings are still wrong despite getting success on all tried methods and patterns.

So i assume i must use the image in the service menu but it won't stay on screen once i exit the sub menu..

Any ideas? My model is an Le22d450g1.

The pattern in the service menu seems to have smaller squares than the onces i've used previously, I'm guessing this is why despite success it's still off.

I did the same and screwed up my HDMI calibration, I tried this pattern http://img94.imageshack.us/img94/9644/checkerboardsamsung.jpg and it did good to my TV.
First time I tried, it did not work that was because I had this picture in fullscreen mode in my laptop's screen.
Then I tried extending my screen into my TV fully blown up. and tried the calibration again, and that was the trick. Hope this helps.

Regards.
