Hey.
I have a Sony Bravia KDL-40S5100 and always did my firmware updates without any problems... Except yesterday when I flashed the wrong firmware (KDL-40V5100).
Now, when I turn on the TV, it turns itself off after 3 seconds without anything onscreen, except for the Bravia logo for 1 second.
Of course, i've tried inserting the right firmware in the USB port, but it won't read it.
First question: is there a way I could fix it by myself and restore the initial firmware?
Second question: if not, has anybody experienced the same thing a got it fixed by a Sony certified repairman? Did they have to change the board or just did some magic with the software?
Thanks
