    Hello . As in the topic, after turning on the above TV, the TV goes into stby, after pressing the power button, the TV starts on the matrix, it displays the Manta startup logo and so it does not respond to the buttons. The voltage is correct, I replaced the Spi memory with the forum batch, it did not change anything. Maybe the "instal.img" file loaded from pendrive will help.
    If someone shared, thanks in advance.

    Hello, after another approach to the above-mentioned. TV. The signal plate in it is:
    HK-T.RT2957E01, MV185WHB-N10 5V matrix
    Voltage 12V, 5V ok on the stabilizers
    U4 1.57V
    U6 3.33V
    U11 3.33V
    on L21.26V
    Uploading a batch to another memory cube did not change anything. Because low-cost repair
    I connected a pendrive with sftem install img on usb. from Manta TV LED 2206.
    After turning on the TV, the process of loading the software and then the TV set alternately displays black blue red and green background and so on.
    Reloading the software to the SPI memory restores the TV to its original state
    that is, the manta ray logo on a gray background is still standing. What else could be done? Bad batch? correct img file ?? Maybe someone will help.
    I forgot - I am wondering about the voltage U4 1.57V is it correct, I do not have a diagram, maybe it is a flaw?

    The input that I posted came from the TV, which the owner connected to the 24V power supply, the inverter at the input was burned, the memory supply voltage was not short-circuited and the memory could be read, and the TV set played according to the owner until the wrong connection.
    The memory was readable, so I put its content, because it was wanted on the forum in the topic Link but the author didn't say whether the batch was good.

    Thank you for your interest. My further fight with this TV - the following conclusions:
    The TV will either make it or go to scrap, I uploaded the bin feed to TV Manta
    Brand: Manta
    Model: 2802
    Chassis (motherboard or main components): HK-T.RT2957P60
    Other (comments): matrix: ST2751A01-3-XC-3 posted by * rtv tomek *
    The TV started up surprisingly, I do not have the original remote control for it, but the volume controls the volume with another remote control, the buttons on the panel work differently than described, and worst of all
    does not find programs while scanning (probably a different type of head in memory).
    So, my final diagnosis is the need to upload the correct load, and the one you posted is probably not working, maybe someone will verify (or) give the correct load.
    By the way, it is pathetic that the new TV set costs less than PLN 400, the manufacturer
    does not provide such basic files.

    The only thing we can do is advise against the purchase of this company's products at every step.

    After the symptoms, as you can see, 100% load on the disc. You should also pay attention to whether it is not broken down into several memories in this case. It often happens that the batch from the primary memory (and here, as a rule, spi is used in the sop8 housing) is only boot and the boot logo just mentioned. On the other hand, the main flash memory (usually the memory in the tsop48 housing) contains the rest of the basic software. Unfortunately, many times either someone does not want to desolder it and take readings, or there is simply nothing because these memories already require more knowledge and more serious equipment. If I find the mentioned TV in working order on the website, I will do a reading for you.

    greetings

    This is often correct, but this board only has SPI memory, no other memory chip.

    Thank you for your interest . If the client does not resign, I am still waiting for help, i.e. a certain charge. It will confirm the diagnosis and may save other TV sets. Greetings.

    The client abandoned the repair and took the TV. Thank you for your interest in the topic.

Topic summary

✨ The discussion revolves around a malfunctioning Manta LED1905V3 TV that fails to boot past the Manta logo after power on. The user has confirmed correct voltage levels and attempted to replace the SPI memory without success. They explored the possibility of using an "instal.img" file from a USB drive to restore functionality. Various responses suggest checking the main voltage levels, the integrity of the memory, and the need for the correct firmware. The user later reported some success with a different Manta model (2802) but still faced issues with program scanning and remote control compatibility. The consensus indicates that the firmware may be incorrect or incomplete, and there is a general sentiment against purchasing Manta products due to these persistent issues.

FAQ

TL;DR: Fix an LED1905V3 stuck on the Manta logo by validating rails (stat: U4 measured 1.57 V) and rewriting the correct SPI image—“Voltage 12V, 5V ok.” [Elektroda, adamo72, post #16750838]

Why it matters: This targets do‑it‑yourself TV repairers who need a fast, low-cost path to recover a boot-locked Manta set.

Quick Facts

Why does my Manta LED1905V3 freeze on the logo after power on?

The mainboard powers up but stops at boot because the SPI flash contains bad or mismatched firmware. Rails check out (12 V, 5 V), yet the set ignores buttons. This points to a software lock rather than a power fault. Reflashing the correct SPI binary is the typical fix for this symptom. [Elektroda, adamo72, post #16737285]

How do I confirm the power rails before touching firmware?

Measure at the stabilizers and coils: 12 V and 5 V present, U6 ≈ 3.33 V, U11 ≈ 3.33 V. Also note U4 around 1.57 V on a working board from the thread. Stable rails rule out a PSU issue and justify firmware work next. [Elektroda, adamo72, post #16750838]

Does the HK-T.RT2957E01 board have only one flash memory?

Yes. This revision carries a single SPI flash device. There is no separate TSOP48 flash on the board. That means the bootloader and main software reside in the same SPI chip, so one wrong image can stall the entire boot. [Elektroda, kazikszach, post #16763801]

What does it mean when the TV shows cycling red/green/blue screens after USB install?

That pattern signals an incompatible or service test image was loaded via USB. The set enters a color test loop instead of completing Android/OS boot, confirming the image did not match the hardware configuration. Restore the proper SPI dump to return the TV to its prior state. [Elektroda, adamo72, post #16750838]

Can I use an install.img from Manta LED2206 to fix LED1905V3?

Avoid it. Flashing the LED2206 image produced only color-cycle screens and no recovery. It did not resolve the logo freeze. Use a model-correct SPI binary for LED1905V3 instead of cross-model USB images. [Elektroda, adamo72, post #16750838]

A tech said “100% load on the disc.” What does that imply here?

It’s shorthand for a firmware-side failure: the SPI flash holds boot and OS content, and a bad load blocks startup. As one expert put it, “100% load on the disc,” meaning the fault lives in the flash contents, not power. Reflash the SPI with a matching dump. [Elektroda, Lukinx, post #16763686]

How can I verify the exact mainboard and panel before flashing?

Check silkscreen for HK-T.RT2957E01 and note the panel sticker MV185WHB-N10 (5 V). Record these IDs before selecting firmware. Mismatched panel timing tables or tuner configs often cause boot or scanning issues after cross-flashing. [Elektroda, adamo72, post #16750838]

Is a SPI dump from a different Manta model a viable workaround?

It may boot but expect mismatches. A 2802 dump on a different chassis started the set, but keys remapped and the tuner found no channels. That shows cross-dumps can prove a software fault yet remain unusable for daily viewing. [Elektroda, adamo72, post #16752333]

How do I reflash the SPI to recover a logo-locked TV?

  1. Desolder or clip onto the SPI (SOIC-8) on HK-T.RT2957E01.
  2. Program a known-good LED1905V3 dump; verify after write.
  3. Refit, power up, and test panel and keys. This restores boot control if rails are good. [Elektroda, adamo72, post #16750838]

What symptoms confirm a tuner or keymap mismatch after cross-flashing?

The TV may power up, but front-panel buttons act wrong and channel scans find no programs. That indicates the dump’s key matrix and tuner profiles do not match your board’s hardware. Replace with the correct model image. [Elektroda, adamo72, post #16752333]

What happens if someone powers the set with 24 V by mistake?

A case in the thread shows a 24 V feed burned the inverter input. The SPI remained readable, and the TV had worked before that incident. This edge case proves over-voltage can damage power sections while leaving flash contents intact. [Elektroda, kazikszach, post #16751098]

What is SPI flash in this context?

SPI flash is an 8‑pin serial memory that stores the TV’s bootloader, logo, and OS data. On HK‑T.RT2957E01 it’s the only firmware store. Corruption or mismatch of this chip stalls boot at the logo screen. Reprogramming restores function. [Elektroda, kazikszach, post #16763801]

What is a TSOP48 flash package, and do I need to read it here?

TSOP48 is a larger parallel flash package often used for main firmware on other TVs. In this board family, there is no TSOP48 present to read. Focus on the SOIC‑8 SPI device for dumps and writes. [Elektroda, kazikszach, post #16763801]

When should I stop and return the TV to the customer?

If a correct, model‑matched SPI dump is unavailable or the client declines further work, terminate. The thread case ended with the customer collecting the set after attempts with nonmatching images. Document findings and voltages for transparency. [Elektroda, adamo72, post #16831274]
