Which exact Blaupunkt setup does this apply to?
This thread covers Blaupunkt 49/1480-GB-11B-FEGBP-EU with chassis T.MS3463S.711. The panel is LC490DUY-SHA1, paired with T-CON 6870C-0532B. The original request was for a firmware dump matching this configuration. [Elektroda, mjoao, post #19038800]
How do I fix a T.MS3463S.711 Blaupunkt that won’t start?
Follow this firmware path:
- Read and back up the SPI flash; confirm the file is exactly 8 MB.
- Program a matching 8 MB bin for your unit.
- Verify write, power up, and test inputs.
An expert noted: "Dump not read correctly. Need 8MB." [Elektroda, jeloi, post #19049702]
Where do I get the correct bin file for this TV?
Share your TV’s serial when requesting help. A helper explicitly asked for the serial before sharing a bin. This ensures the file matches your hardware variant. [Elektroda, billobirillo, post #19041589]
What size must the SPI flash dump be?
Exactly 8 MB. Smaller or partial reads indicate an incorrect or failed dump. As one expert stated, "Dump not read correctly. Need 8MB." Verify file size before programming. [Elektroda, jeloi, post #19049702]
What if the first firmware file doesn’t work?
The OP reported the first attempt failed and suspected a board fault. Consider trying another matching bin and verify the 8 MB read. If still dead, inspect or replace the main board. [Elektroda, mjoao, post #19043085]
Did flashing the shared bin actually fix it here?
Yes. The OP confirmed success after flashing the supplied file, stating, "Works perfectly." That validated the firmware approach for this set. [Elektroda, mjoao, post #19050095]
Can I replace the main board instead of reprogramming?
Yes. A T.MS3463S.711 main AV board A16020570 matched to LC490DUY-SHA1 was referenced around £30. Board replacement is a practical alternative when firmware repair fails. [Elektroda, lisek, post #19043203]
What if the replacement board is out of stock?
Availability varies. The OP checked a suggested listing and noted it was sold out. If unavailable, set up restock alerts or seek a donor set. [Elektroda, mjoao, post #19047639]
Should I upload my defective dump when asking for help?
Yes. A contributor requested, "Post the defective dump." Experts can spot size issues, corruption, or mismatches and advise a correct file. [Elektroda, jeloi, post #19042549]
What serial did the original poster share for identification?
The OP provided serial BS49E148FMOPOE6Y-96140200560. Sharing the serial helps others match the correct firmware image. [Elektroda, mjoao, post #19041804]
Is there a shared dump for serial BS49E148BFM0P0E06S?
Yes. A user later attached a dump specifically for BS49E148BFM0P0E06S. Check their post for the file reference. [Elektroda, danutu71, post #21308675]
What panel and T-CON are paired with this chassis here?
This case uses the LC490DUY-SHA1 panel with T-CON 6870C-0532B. Matching these helps ensure firmware compatibility and stable operation. [Elektroda, mjoao, post #19038800]
Why do helpers ask for feedback after sending a bin?
It confirms compatibility and guides next steps. One helper said, "use this bin file and let me know if it works correctly." Feedback accelerates troubleshooting. [Elektroda, billobirillo, post #19041946]
