If you have a Samsung Smart TV at home, keeping it updated is really important to avoid random lags, app crashes, and bugs. Samsung just rolled out the new software build 2743
Here is the quick guide on how to update it, what things you should care about while updating, and what is fixed in this version.
Easy Steps to Update Your TV Software

Press the Home button on your remote and go to Settings (gear icon on the left side).
Scroll down and click on Support.

Now hit Update Now or check for update
. The TV will connect to the internet and check for any new available file . Once it find the update, it will show a pop up saying Upgrade to version 2743
. Simply click on Yes or update, and the download will start .
Important Things to Keep in Mind (Don't Panic!)
When the update is installing, please take care of these few things so you don't mess up the TV:
Your TV will restart several time: While updating, the screen might turn completely black, go off, and turn back on automatically a couple of times
. Do not panic! This is totally normal behavior while the system is applying files . Don't touch your remote: While the progress bar is running, do not press any buttons on your remote
. Just leave it aside on the table. Never turn off the TV: Do not turn off the main switch or unplug the power cable. If power cuts off midway, the software can get corrupt. Just give it 5 to 10 minutes to finish completely.
