Last year I bought a Samsung S27C330GA monitor. I was wondering if anyone had updated its firmware via USB to the latest version. It should be supported, but I don’t want to ruin it.
Is there anything not working at the moment? Or are there any new features you actually want from the new firmware?
Just make sure you have the firmware for your specific monitor’s region. I had a different Samsung monitor with a few regional variants that were only indicated by an extra letter on the model # on the back label. I didn’t think it would matter until I flashed firmware from a different region and bricked my panel…
Granted, I had to rename the firmware file to have a matching region letter to get the monitor to identify it, and the warranty covered my mistake without having to make a fuss, but it was a long couple weeks basking in my own stupidity.
Just don’t do what I did and you’ll be fine, I’ve flashed monitor firmware properly many times before without issue. Just don’t futz with the file or power off the device mid-flash and you’re golden 😉
