My TV has a yellow tint. Would this fix it?

Our TV had discoloration just before it went out. The new lamp fixed the problem also brought the LCD screen back to a near new picture.

No it wont. I myself have a blue tint on my tv as well. The purpose of the lamp won't take any color tint away.

Color problems with TV's that I've seen are typically caused by a problem with the LCD screen or it's controller. Usually when the bulb is bad it just dimms or fails to light up at all.

Mine is a larger tv but had the same problem. While replacing the bulb, I noticed that the color wheel was in pieces. I replaced both & the picture is ok now. There are plenty of instructions on the net. Tip: wear gloves. I got a bad cut from sharp metal. Good luck.

No, I have had no problems with tint adjustment or any other adjustments I made. This TV has been great on color & sound.

Yes it will work. I used it just for that. As mentioned in another answer you will probably see some bars or what may look like discoloration that is interference. At least for me while I could notice it on some screens it was not bad enough to impact with my viewer experience most of the time. That and my other option was to put the cords in the front of the TV and let my kids grab them and pull on them.

The fix to the yellow that Lenovo released is software and not hardware. If it doesn't come with it out of the box then you can just download it from the drivers site and apply. That being said I have heard a number of people saying that it doesn't fix the yellow issue but my yellows look fine to me after I applied the fix.

That is simply a white balance setting. All.. I repeat.. ALL cameras will do that, if the white balance isn't set right. MOST cameras have a scene setting that include interiors that counter act the yellow red tint given off by regular light bulbs.

It has been my experience that when the red light flashes on my TV that the lamp needs to be replaced. You might try removing the lamp and re-inserting it to see if that fixes it, but if you get the same flashing of the light on your TV, you probably need to replace the lamp. Cheap and easy to do! Just follow the directions in your owner's manual!

Rick H, It sounds like it will need service. Reach out to the Samsung customer service center to try some troubleshooting. If that doesn't work, they can set your TV up for a repair. Thanks for your support of Samsung products. --Mr. S

The best thing to do is to Buy one of those hd tuning dvds. I did that and it looked better than when i screwed with the settings. My tv looks great and I no longer mess with the settings.

No, At least they won't help me that way. The yellow tint does not effect the sight, no coloration. They only screen blue light rays. Other wise you won't know you are wearing them.

in theory it should fix the problem of the tv turning off & on. We replaced the bulb, it worked for a few hours or days (can't remember). then we googled for more help & saw something say that a lot of times you have to replace the ballast as well as the lamp. did that & it still doesn't work. We just decided to buy a new tv & be done with it instead of having someone look at it & pay that charge as well. I am sure this doesn't really help, but that's what our experience was.

I have the same TV. If the green and red lights blink and then the TV try's to reset itself, the bulb needs to be replaced. I have replace over 5 bulbs in the last 7 years. Make sure to purchase a bulb with high quality or else it will have a poor lighting effect to the picture..... good luck. I will never purchase a TV that requires bulb replacement.....

It looks really blue on my TV and on my computer monitor. I looked at this question's answers and assumed it was a defect. But after exchanging it for a new one, I still have the same problem! :/

This device does not have component (RGB) outputs. The video outs are composite (yellow connector) and s-video (mini DIN). If your TV has a single rca connector for video input, or the newer s-video input, this device will work for you.

The screen is not reflective and the TV has a smart sensor that till brighten or dim depending on the light available in the room. I have 3 windows in my living room and this doesn't cause any issues unless the slight in shining directly on the screen

wow, can't remember now since I purchased this at least a year ago. It was easy to replace. I did notice about a month after I changed it, it appeared to have a slight yellow circle about the size of a softball on the bottom of my screen. I don't know if it had anything to do with this of not. The size is now about the size of a beach ball but hasn't affected the tv at all other than when the screen is dark but on........like in between frame shots, you can see the yellow but it doesn't interfere with watching tv and works fine. Thinking about it, this purchase may have been 2 years ago..........you may know more than me about when I bought it. I would buy again. wow, can't remember now since I purchased this at least a year ago. It was easy to replace.

Mine lost a lot of their opacity since I first bought them (so I'll need to try the recommended "tip-down" method) so my yellow did not show up very well. Mostly because there was not a lot of contrast, and the white board is really only white under very bright lighting.
