Cannot install latest version 1.5.0 of Samsung Tizen... Please help!

[adpopulum 2]

Have a Samsung Smart TV (UN40MU6300) that has been running version 1.4.9 perfectly. Tried to install 1.5.0 and all I get when I insert the USB drive (Fat 16) is a msg asking if I want to browse the contents of the drive. Does not initiate the install. I have confirmed I am connected to the internet, tried multiple USB drives also with FAT 32 and tried power cycling (i.e. unplugging the TV for a minute or so). No Joy

Read in the instructions that some Samsung SmartTVs won't upgrade from USB drive if there is already a USB version installed.  So I deleted the old version and retried the install process with the same results.

Then I tried to re-install 1.4.9 and I am still getting the same msg! So now I do not have access to my emby server at the moment and would really like to fix this issue. Can anyone shed some light?

Hi there, what exactly happens when you try?

Did you start with a clean USB drive? No other files on it?  Did you unzip the update correctly?

I get the following msg: New Device: Mass Storage is Connected. When I installed 1.4.9 last month it installed as it should.

Yes, tried several freshly formatted. Unzipped using Archive Utility  a mac. will give it a try on a windows machine using winrar but I can't believe unzip is a problem.

Yes, it can be an issue on a mac. I would reformat and unzip again on windows

OK, will give it a go this evening and report back

No luck, formatted 2 USB drives in windows (Fat and Fat32) downloaded a new copy of Tizen and have the same results. Should mention the TV's firmware is also up to date...

Did you actually uninstall the old version (from apps) instead of just removing it from the home ribbon?

Turns out I did not! Have done now and have installed 1.5.0. Very much appreciate your help on this.
