yup me too... BD-J5700. I own 5 that are scattered around the house and at parents.  One quit Wednesday/Thursday like everyone else and keeps cycling thru poweron, menu, no-disc, reboot.  Almost reminds me of a brown-out of a RaspberryPi or similar single board computer.   But, I can't get to the menu long enough to initate any firmware resets or factory resets.  I had a text chat with support last night but they insisted there was no update pushed, and my only option was to open a repair ticket and return the device to Samsung (and only Samsung) for repair.

I contacted support and they assured me that there is nothing wrong with my blu ray player. The tech team is working on a solution. She said to give it a couple days. She said to unplug it for now but to plug it in every 6 hours and leave it plugged in for a few minutes so the update they find can go through. I have a j5100
