Antonio, Ideally, never. However, if your software App download gets interrupted or an App isn't properly working, you may choose to perform a reset. Thanks for your interest in Samsung products. --Mr. S

I have had mine for 2 days now, instead of hitting reset button to make it work, turn on tv's first before , example blue ray player, this will work without hitting reset button

I suggest you call the manufacturer for advice so that you do not damage the TV. Please let us know what advice was given for the good of mankind in case any of us get in the same fix.

Yup. That's the ticket. Reset to factory and start from scratch. This was a gift to my daughter and she had the one initial glitch and from that, no other issues. Works for her with no problem.

try to reset the device by unplugging it and plugging it back in. also, make sure you take the tiny protective cover off of the end of the optical cord that plugs into your tv. its small and very hard to see.

I have never reset my tv but the apps on the TV suck. My Hulu app barely plays. I called samsung about the issue and tech support really couldn't help. So I don't use any of apps on the TV; I have an apple tv. I suggest you do something like that if you can't get the apps to work. The tv is still really awesome...the picture is amazing!

What apps have you installed? You should keep them to a minimum for TV viewing. Anything else you should do on a tablet. Like suggested earlier, do a factory reset and start allover.Then again, if having done that, you still have memory problems, you could have a TV problem.Good luck.

Report this to Amazon. If you have not had the tv very long, make sure you don't let the first 30 days run out without replacing it. Amazon is amazing about replacement. My son's LG 4600 went totally out after using it just two weeks. Turned itself off and never came back on. He had a brand new replacement within 4 days.

I bought mine only 2 weeks ago and the firmware I have now is dated 8/24/07 and xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx-1036. I have not tweaked my settings yet. The defaults are looking very good with free over the air HD channels. Put in HD channels or blueray player or Hd-dvd player, if all look good then just be happy with it. I can't say for sure about the refurbished unit.

If it has been dropped. even with no visible signs of damage. Warranty is best option. If not look up how to perform factory reset, before trying warranty option.

Hit the menu button, maybe two times until all tabs are on the top of the screen. I can't remember for sure but I think you scroll over to sonar or the navigation tab and scroll down to Reset factory defaults and hit that button. If that doesn't work, go to advanced settings and do the same thing.

Press the POWER button on the actually TV and hold it down for ~20 seconds until you get a flash on the power button (might even be a blue flash). If that does not work, unplug the TV and plug it back in. This happens on my 82 inch 2011 Diamond Series TV every month or so.

H Gwyn. No, you can clear your account from the device and clean up many problems by doing a Power Wash, which is a cute name for a factory reset. You can find the instructions here: http://www.samsung.com/us/support/howtoguide/N0000443/9515/97719/XE303C12-A01US. I recommend trying a Power Wash to see if that will satisfy your needs rather than doing a full recovery.If you truly need to do a recovery, you can find instructions for doing the recovery -- which include how to download a system image -- here: http://www.samsung.com/us/support/supportOwnersHowToGuidePopup.do?howto_guide_seq=6833&prd;_ia_cd=N0000442&map;_seq=45819 H Gwyn.

Once fully charged, try holding the power and volume up buttons together for 30 seconds. This should take you to a factory reset screen.
