How to fix Samsung TV black strip issue?

Err… How to fix Samsung Series 5 LED TV black strip issue? Besides horizontal black bar, it has green vertical lines too sometimes. That’s the issue that I faced with my 40″ Samsung LED TV UA40D5000. I searched online for solution but failed to find one. Do you know how to solve it? Okay, here are the solutions. If your Samsung TV still in warranty period, sends it back to repair. Else you always buy a new one if you are rich. Or fix it manually by yourself. Yes, I solved it by myself. But no guarantee that this solution will do the same to your TV too. At least you can try if out of warranty.

How to improve Galaxy S4 screen display colour?

Samsung latest Super AMOLED screen on Samsung Galaxy S4 is the best AMOLED panel so far. I really love the true black on Galaxy S4. No backlight at all on black colour pixels (you still can see some backlight on Galaxy S3 and Galaxy Note 2). And 1080p Full HD on 5″ screen brings DPI up to a standard that I don’t even care it is a PenTile matrix. Yes, you can’t see pixel at all on normal usage. However, it still have its weakness where colours are way too oversaturate (at least for me on default settings). Luckily, you can change the colours with several screen modes provided by Samsung.
