Just got a new replacement remote...charge full on the screen but loses power completely and immediately after unplugging from charger?

The battery is not holding charge. Unless you are savvy w/ opening the remote case & replacing the battery, might as well send it back for a replacement.

Go to a battery store and have the battery tested. I know Batteries Plus sells a replacement battery and they are not cheap. If it is not the battery, it most likely is the remote. I bought a new one after having problems with the channels jumping randomly and am so much happier with the newer remote. My other one was about 4 years old.

Why do you need a new charger? Every time you charge the unit you have to reprogram the remote to the unit. You do this by pressing any button on the remote. Also the remote will go into a sleep mode after 20 minutes of non use. Again...hit any button on the remote to wake it up.

Screen was un responsive on my old unit. Purchased the new stat based on old unit. Simple replacement, only needed to re-program. Have to agree with other responder - it's likely cheaper to replace the entire unit

I'm using a generic iphone app. The original one that came with the TV melted the batteries and almost caused a fire! Samsung replaced it with a new one even though I explained to them that my remote control is not an isolated case and that so many existing owners are complaining about these remote controls, depleting batteries causing them to explode. But they insisted that the one they send will be function properly. Guess what, I put new batteries in the POS and sure enough the batteries died the next day. I took that thing and kept it in case one day enough pressure is put on Samsung to issue a recall of this dangerous POS.

I have found this happens to me. I usually charge the unit up again and it works fine. It seems to lose power even if it's not used.

Reload program if you have access to it. Pull battery to reboot remote is another option to try.

If you already tried new batteries , then I would contact the company and send the remote back for a new one. You shouldn't have to do anything with the remote to get it to work properly. Did it work before?

I'm not sure, but there might be a small piece of plastic over the battery in the remote that needs to be removed. It would help to keep the battery from discharging prior to use.

Two thoughts first press the red button on the top of the black little box where the power cord attaches to the LED Board. It should come on immediately; unless something is seriously wrong with the board. Then check your remote control open up the battery compartment there may be a piece of the plastic tab still in there or the battery may have come loose during shipping. If you open the battery compartment and there's no plastic in there and the battery is in the proper place you may simply need a new battery. Mine has been up and running since day 1. If none of these seem to be the problem I would return it for a replacement. Good Luck.

It could be you have a bad battery. My suggestion to you is, to return the remote back to the seller and have them send you a new one. I haven't had any problems whatsoever.

No help here. Ours worked just fine. Regarding the previous comment we did fully charge ours before we used it.

Same EXACT problem. It appears to be the dude itself not charging? I'm going to try to change remote battery tomorrow, but dint think that's oyr problem. Will report back.

That's why I replaced mine. Lightning damaged the unit, and according to the manual if resetting it doesn't fix the problem, then the next step was to replace the logic board. Mine blink 5 times as well. Once I replaced it with a new board it worked (all wireless remotes will need to be reprogrammed to work with the new board, follow the manual on how to do that.) I can't say for sure if it will fix yours, best of luck.

Make sure the remote is seated all the way into the caller. If it's a little loose it may not charge. Seat it tightly and it should charge fully. I had that happen once to me. Next time I made sure it was fully inserted into the caller and it charged fully and turned on right away.
