Smart TV being a pain..

We have a Samsung Smart TV the last few days when the tv is switched on it goes straight to the last tv channel we were watching instead of the Home Hub page which is how its been since we bought it. Also when you get to the Home Hub there are only 3 icons at the top of the page where there used to be 5 so, two seem to be gone . No one has changed anything and OH thinsk I've changed something .. anyone got a clue wha'ts happened..HELP!!:eek:

    Must be something with "smart" Samsung TVs ours is 6 months old and eveytime we turn it on after a few minutes it turns itself off and immediately turns back on again.

    John Lewis helpline has never heard of this before and are arranging a engineer call out.

    Oh my word, OH just spoke to Samsung and apparently those two icons have 'expired' and our 'older' tv doesn't get them anymore, how rediculous is that OH is spitting feathers ..:mad::eek::mad::mad::mad::mad:

    Our TV sometimes turns itself on. I jumped out of my skin when it happened on Sunday. However, the worst thing is when it happens in the middle of the night: three times one night!
