    Samsung TV LE37S81B - Screen refresh problem

    Hello,

    I have a Samsung TV model LE37S81B with the next problem:
    I select HDMI 1 as source input (nothing connected in such source) in order to have a black background (this makes easier to see the problem). Then I navigate to main menu, and I remain in such menu 30 seconds. When I change to any sub-menu within the main menu, I can see in the screen a slightly reminder of the text options of previous menu. It is like a shadow of previous menu behind the current one, but such shadow is weak and if I stay without change the menu, the shadow disappear along the time (i.e. 20 to 30 seconds).

    For example, I go to main menu, first option: mode such default option is “dynamic”, I stay during 30 seconds by doing nothing, then I press up key and the menu scroll up (by going to last option of such menu: “reset”) and “dynamic” text remains weakly in next menu's background, by touching nothing it becomes to disappear and within 20 seconds the background where it was “dynamic” text is completely black, as it should have been immediately after I press up key.

    Can anyone help me with this issue? Can it be related with problems in internal power supply? I've reset the TV: Info, Menu, Mute, Power, but the problem still remains, I suppose there is no configuration related with this issue, so probably is a hardware problem.

    Thanks in advance for any help.

      Also of note: Samsung 37" 720p TVs used absolutely rubbish, bottom-of-the-bin LCD panels; usually Chungwha. These do tend to develop image retention issues after some time, as well as mura effect. Unfortunately there is little you can do to fix the problem.

        It seems to be the same problem, did you change the tcon board or you fixed it?
        In that case, do you know what kind of defect it had?

            Ok, thanks for your help, I've been reading about this subject and it is clear that there is no way to fix the problem, at least is what I understand.
