Like many others here, my HW-Q800D is completely bricked after the most recent firmware update. Stuck in  e-arc mode, and the remote and physical buttons do nothing. Hoping to make another post so Samsung addresses this asap. Itā€™s ridiculous to have a firmware update render a ā€œtop of the lineā€ soundbar like this completely useless. Their suggestion is to send it in for repairs, luckily with no cost to me, but who knows how long theyā€™ll keep it for and what the turn around time is like.

Same here with same model. They also told me to send it in for repair, but I had to pay shipping cost myself.

Is yours still within the warranty period?

Yes, but I did not buy it directly from Samsung, so that's why I had to pay I guess. But it's easier for me to just ship the sound bar (without subwoofer) to Samsung than bringing the whole package back to the store I bought it from.
