Same issue!
I went through those steps with support and Twitter support also. They required I send them a picture of the tv at night to show the dim display, but my pictures don’t come out well enough to show the problem. I have been pushing and hopefully I can get a tech to come out to fix the issue that I am having.
Yeah they didn’t ask me for that and it’s a ridiculous thing to ask even with the best cameras!
Hopefully you can as well. I had to really push for it after emphasising how unreasonable it was that they were unwilling to offer assistance unless I could send a photo in the dark of the problem as well as it still having 4 months left of warranty. Spoke on chat as well as via phone and email and eventually a technician was scheduled.
Just got a call they sent a new tv to a technician and once he receives it and verifies it works they are coming out with it.
Wow lucky, sounds like they’re just replacing it with a new one.
They replaced with new tv today tonight 11pm tv off same glow new tv all power settings off logo led light off screen glows! This has to be a power mode issue in the software. Can anyone from Roku or tcl respond here ?
Horrible. That’s what I’m worried would be the case. Have you contacted TCL? I wonder if there’s any solution from here.
I just had my screen repaired today and even the technician said it probably wouldn’t do anything and I’d have to have it replaced anyway. So, that’s my next step. Fingers crossed.
Tcl offered anther replacement or a refund with receipt which I’m trying to get daughter bought as gift from target on target card for store pickup they don’t give you a printed receipt when you do that. This is the last tcl email today
Thank you for sending the requested photos. According to our Head Quarters, we are working on a hardware fix on this issue but we do not have the new parts yet. There may be a software fix but it will unlikely be ready for sometime. The only option we can offer right now is to wait for a permanent fix or we can proceed with a refund if you can provide us a copy of your proof of purchase.
I guess a refund is better than nothing. At least you can put it toward a different TV. Shame that this has been a known issue yet with no software fix given its from 2019....
im wondering how widespread the issue is and if it’s with ALL 50S425 models or just a handful.
Hopefully you’re able to come to a resolution without a receipt. Maybe a bank statement showing the purchase?
