Samsung 6 Series 3d FHD LED Android - Philips, Sony, TCL Android TV

Hi all, I'm Mike and I'm new to the group. I was Wondering if anyone could give me an insite to something I got told a few days ago. I have a Samsung series 6 as it says in the title above. A relation of my partners came to visit us over Christmas and explained that the TV we have, the firmware could be upgraded to the 4k firmware because its already 4k enabled when it left the factory? Is this true? If so where could I get the firmware from for it? Personally myself I don't believe them, But 4k did come out around the same time as my TV. I have spent some time looking but can't really find any info on it. Any help or info is appreciated. Thankyou all.

Samsung Galaxy Beam

Hey guys,
Anyone have this device? Can a subforum be opened?
It's excellent - I just got it and there's a lot of work to do
I added info at the XDA Wiki...

it has been out for a loooong time, there is another device similar to the Beam was on July, the other one was on March
both are for Europe market
they don't seem to be very popular
they are from the 8000 family, although the spec are very close to the Galaxy S 9000 family

Few weeks back I came across a review of this phone on youtube. Even though it was announced early this year (and GSM arena says its already available), I didn't find any information indicating that this phone is actually available on the market. I was looking for it's price.

good idea
Just bought mine a week ago from StarHub (the official retailer for galaxy beam).
I second the subforum idea. How about starting a google group as well since the community is so small.
For those who wish to purchase the phone:
You need to place a reservation at StarHub Center before making the purchase. It takes about a week before your phone is ready for collection.
I was lucky enough to get it immediately because someone cancelled his reservation.
waiting for mine, deseperatly ....
i'll check with Admins and Sr Mods to see if they want to create a new forum for it
That's great! Thanks man.
nocomp: you may try bugging their hq at cuppage road. They might just have an extra handset lying around like mine. Haha
i ve bought it from a local shop in singapore, they were agree to send it to me to france.
still waiting for the delivery...... the singapore post tracking service, isn t much alive since 2 days......
i guess that ll be a change from my nexus, what i am pissed of, is that you can t use an app that use camera and projector in the same time
it seems that what has to be done, (part of find a way to upgrade it to froyo):
get gps working when projector is on
get projector working when camera is on
can you tell me if the galaxy beam has also the tv out like galaxy s?
best regards
herve
I have some bad news for you. Samsung has officially stopped software support for that device last month and said there's no plans for official froyo for it as there's just not enough beams out there to warrent the support as it was only sold in Singapore and very small numbers. They now have all development on tablet and galaxy s models. Google for more info. I read that last month someplace

hi
thxx a lot, that news has been goin on here and there fr a while, surely some ppl can adapt 2.2 to the beam model.
i finally received mine )))
bad news, impossible to install an application from android market :'(
never happend before with the nexus, i get the message "unable to download" either i am in wifi or 3g
any idea why?
herve
Hmm never had a problem with market. Have you tried replacing the stock market app with a generic one from ipmart? Perhaps it's locked down to Singapore or something.
Topic moved to General until and if a new proper forum comes into place for this device.
hi,
well i ve took sim card off n sdcard off, and then it was working over wifi.
put the simcard back again and market was working.
no idea wtf happend.
hi,
how can i know what software update is current?
my version is 2.1 update 1
I8520DXJ11
kernel 2.6.29-zeus1
can t find in the setting menu the update section
thx for your help
btw i ve found this, anybody tried it?
http://shomblingteam.blogspot.com/2010/08/samsung-i8520-galaxy-beam.html
My phone is running the same firmware version as yours. It's released on 1 Sept which is more recent than the July version on that blog.
hi,
thx for the news, so if there is an update it ll appear in the "about" section right?
do you know any trick/tweak for allow to run gps when using projector?
herve
Probably, but I doubt there will be any more updates since the beam is not getting froyo. Hopefully I'm wrong...
I'm not aware of any tricks but if you have the time and expertise try editing the source code? Haha I'm no expert either.

Allshare Cast release date?

I thought about posing this question in the Q&A section but since it is an accessory I thought I’d list it here. Has anyone heard of a planned release date for the Allshare Cast dongle? I saw Amazon is taking orders at $100 saying it “usually ships within 1-2 months” but that’s not exactly precise.

Did you ever find out your answer? I need to buy on of these asap. I saw it on amazon too and it says 1-3 months now. Are they not available in the USA yet? Also I called the Official Samsung Accessories department today and the guy was very helpful, but had NEVER heard of this device. Seriously, I sent him a few links of the device on Amazon and the Review of the device off Engadget. He called me back to let me know, no one there had ever heard of it either.....Weird!
It's available in Poland
From all I've heard it should be last week of August in UK, and I just don't get why we get the high end phones released and announced first over here because we are one of the biggest markets, but Samsung always give us the accessories last and not bother with any firm release dates, I mean a lot of people are already pissed off with lack of Mass storage mode and External App moving so you'd think they'd have enough sense to get the accessories out as quick as possible to divert attention away from everything else they messed up.

Yeah I know what you mean... I mean stupid HTC has there Media Link out already. It does practically the same thing, but from what I have seen, it isnt quite as good. I wonder if it is even compatible with with other android devices. I want the Allshare Dongle because as a teacher I want to use its presentation mode for power point.
Hey guys, one more thing, I also Have a Nexus 7, you think I could install Allshare on the Tab an use the dongle with the tab as well? That would be ideal!
Allshare funcion uses wireless lan (router) to stream only videos, photos and music.
Allshare cast dongle uses Wi-Fi Direct technology to create mirror of the phone on the TV screen (you can also play games). You don't have to be in the area with wi-fi network.
Allshare cast dongle only works with Galaxy S3.

Sorry I never responded back. I didn't get any replies for a while so I assumed this thread was dead. Hopefully it's available soon!

Here in sweden we have had it for about 2weeks now and my two cents in the matter is,,,,as of now the dongle doesn't work very well ,,
No 1080p , problems with connection, picture in picture (popup play) doesn't work,
Overall iam kind of disappointed
Hopefully a fw upgrade will correct some or all of the problems

Samsung Tab 3 7/8/10 inch Demo Unit Unlocking HELP

Hey guys, my boss recently gave me retail demo units of the samsung galaxy tab 3 7/8/10 inch to see if i could get them flashed and usable for "colleague incentives".
I was just wondering if anyone has had any luck with unlocking demo units before. Ive tried my hand at putting custom ROMs onto phones before but these demo units have me puzzled.
Any help or advice on how to get these into working condition would be great.
Thanks in advance, Kris

3D TVs discontinued, what should I do now?

My question is that, when I turn on my LCD it goes black and I don't know why? Even I have been trying to solve it but no chance. I want anybody to help me and I bought this LCD TV from amazon recently by following this: Best 3d TV's
And now this is happening with me I want to get it solved. Still, no response from any guy.
I have asked this question in many forms. I am very upset.
And what does this have to do with the Nvidia Shield TV?
Ask customer support of the Manufacturer or where you bought it

Im sort of surprised there is no replies. Has anyone looked into rooting this TCL or alternative android builds?
I don't think it's hard as long as you don't update it there were several cve bulletins it on it for huge security holes

Most of these TVs use the standard MStar T22 (m7322) SoC. Check with AIDA64 or some such and post the info here. Is the TV running Android 9.0?
You should be able to unlock the bootloader from fastboot. To do much beyond that, you're going to need UART access (usually a 3.5 mm Sevice jack on the back or side of the TV; if not, via HDMI).
How much of the above can you do/understand? If something goes wrong, you'll have a brick on your hands and a call to warranty support.
(I have a Hisense 65H6570F from last year that is a T22 with 9.0.)
