Programming 360 remote to Samsung TCL 55C641K

Tried to pair the 360 remote to this tv, it won’t do it, tried various options still nothing went through the settings menu, it’s a brand new tv can’t understand it, it working on my previous tv a Digihome, anyone any ideas please?

Thanks

    Hi Stephen93 

    If you press and hold the TV button and the rewind button together for around 15/20 seconds on the 360 remote then it should pair automatically.

    If that fails then you need to set up manually.  The TCL55C641K isn't a Samsung TV.  It's an android TV manufactured by TCL so you need to use TCL as the brand name and not Samsung in the 360 settings.

    Go to Settings > Audio & Video > Pair remote with devices > TV devices >  then scroll down and select T from the alphabetical list on the left.  Then on the right highlight TCL and click on Enter device model number.

    Using the onscreen keyboard type in 55C6 and it should say 'It's a match' so you can test it. It may take a few tests to work.

    If that fails then try key testing method.

     Audio & Video > Pair remote with devices > TV devices, but don't just accept the first one that appears to work. Try a few more as (like the older V6 and Tivo boxes) there are often 3 or 4 that will work, some more fully than others.
