I have a new 55” Q80A. Literally one day old. Immediately I noticed it has issues with sound being out of sync with the picture. No sound bar, just tv speakers. Only input is cable box. Happens on all channels. 

Any ideas? This is replacing a defective NU7100 so I’m a bit irritated.

I was able to update my Firmware by USB to 1560.5 from 1506.0.

The downloaded zip file was T-NKM2AKUC_1560.5_USB_Up.zip

I extracted files and folders on my computer hard drive which created a folder  called  

“T-NKM2AKUC_1560.5_USB_Up”   Inside that folder are the files and folders you need to be in the root drive of the USB drive. 

I copied the folders and files inside of the “T-NKM2AKUC_1560.5_USB_Up”  folder from my hard drive to the USB drive.  Now in the root of the USB drive is a folder called "T-NKM2AKUC" and a file "SWU_AUTO_FLAG".  i'm wondering if this file is a hidden file, my computer is set to show hidden files.

Plugged the USB drive into the TV and updated the Firmware no problem.  Checked version on the TV and it is now 1560.5

It's only been installed 20 minutes but I think it has fixed the sync issue.  Busy working so not a lot of time to watch tv and check it out.

Does this also happen with the built-in apps on the TV?

Sorry for the delay in replying. Unfortunately, you cannot log in from an iPhone and access your notifications. 

I need more clarification as to which apps you're referring to. Do you mean apps such as Netflix and Amazon? 

What I've figured out thus far is it does appear to be more of an issue with network television. Additionally, it worsen the longer the unit is on. When initially turned on, you really don't notice it. After 30 -45 minutes, you definitely notice it. 

I'm going to try swapping HDMI cables but other than that, I can't think of anything else to try.

Does it occur with apps that were pre-installed or apps that you downloaded (ie. Disney Plus, Funimation, etc)? Did changing out the HDMI cables help?

Hi, I actually haven't downloaded any additional apps. It occurs in Amazon, Netflix and most noticeable with broadcast TV. It also worsens the longer the unit is on. 

Unfortunately, swapping the HDMI cable made no difference.

Any Ideas?

Unfortunately, that link only applies if you have a soundbar. I do not. This is occurring with the unit's speakers. However, I still set delay to 0 with no change. Samsung has offered repair but my question is, what is being repaired? What IS the problem? Samsung is apparently incapable of answering that. I'm extremely hesitant to repair a brand new, fairly costly television. Especially when no one can actually tell me what is wrong.

Samsung is aware of the issue and has a software update to fix this. You'll have to call 1800SAMSUNG and the agent should be able to share a download link for you to update your TV using USB.

Thank you. After a tedious phone call with Samsung, they claim my software is the most up to date version. 

So now, a technician will be coming out to calibrate the sound card and troubleshoot the issue. 

I've honestly been quite disappointed with Samsung's support. The Samsung "Pros" are anything but pro. They can't even confirm the date and time for the service appointment! This has been an absolute nightmare!
