If you wish to buy its original remote control, contact the authorized service centre, or authorized dealer to your device brand. They can either give you a genuine remote control to your device, or can direct you, from where can you purchase a suitable one.
To select a proper universal remote control, you should know about the number of digits to its set-up codes. There are 3 digit, 4 digit, 5 digit, 2 digit and even single digit codes, to some brand devices. After confirming this, check the sites linked here. Both the sites have set-up code list and set-up procedure to many popular brand remote controls. Check which brand remote control has set-up code/s to your device brand, and buy that one according to availability. Brand name of the remote control isn't a matter, but it should have set-up codes in its code list, to the device brand you have.
Please note: Every new universal remote control will have set-up code list, and set-up procedure along with its pack. Never accept a remote control, that hasn't both of this. For more details about the set-up codes, visit the sites.

Universal remote controls are available at most of the electronic spare part selling shops. Visit some on-line sites too, which deals with electronic spare parts.

SOURCE: need remote control code for 32" X2GEN tv

Good luck. I have the same issue. No codes are available for the X2Gen. To make matters worse, it appears to use a non-standard frequency for the carrier signal, maening that other remotes won't work with the TV.

I purchased a learning remote, thinking I would just "teach" it the codes directly from the X2Gen TV remote. This didn't work either.

There appears to be no way to use any remote other than the one supplied with the TV. Whatever you do, don't lose it!

SOURCE: Durabrand 1002 DVD player

not sure if this is correct - code listed for Duraband DVD in my remote control manual, which you could try - 0831 or 0713. But that does not work for mine :-)

SOURCE: Mintek TV and Direct TV remote wont program

Try a code search, the method should be in the manual. If you can't get that to work then it's not possible to use the DirecTV remote.

If that's the case then get a learning remote.

SOURCE: Direct TV remote, changed batteries, does not work

Ok, simple problem and solution. You had the answer right here. If you take the original battery and put the + end of it next to the new battery + end you will see that the old one is longer for certain. inside the controler you will see the + contact is a coiled wire contact. If you take hemostats, tweezers or needle nose pliars and gently pull the center of the contact out it will spring the contact out of the housing and when you reinstall the new batteries the + end of the battery will now make contact with the wire. Took about 10 seconds to pull this out and my controller now works like a charm. Good Luck.

SOURCE: my samsung remote BN59-00852A just stopped

Try the instructions below. If you need to replace the remote, you can order one from:
http://www.remotes.com/remotes/servlet/rs?a=Search&o=c&uid=0&m=BN59-00852A&uuid=12967730823440

Before replacing the remote, try the following:
How to Re-Start Your "Dead" Remote Control This only takes about a minute and will restart 1 in 3 "Dead" Original Remote Controls. Good Luck!
Step 1- Pull the batteries out of the remote and leave them out until Step 4.
Step 2- Press and release each and every button one at a time on the remote control until every button has been pressed and released at least once!
Step 3- If your remote has slide switches, you must move the switch to each position then repeat the button pushing in Step 2.
(When you're done, be sure to put the slide switch in the correct position to operate the unit the remote came with!)
Step 4- Put the batteries back into the remote, being very careful to install them correctly.
New batteries should be used if you're not sure about the old ones.
Step 5- Try the remote.

Special Note:
If you have a digital camera, camcorder or camera phone you can test the remote to see if it is emitting a signal. Face the remote towards the lens of the digital unit until you can see the front of the remote. Depress any button on the remote. You should see a light (steady, blink or flashing) being emitted from the remote. If you do then the problem might not be the remote but the sensor on the TV unit.

Let me know if you have further questions. Please make sure to rate this solution. Thanks.

I have a two wide line at the top and bottom of my tv picture. how do i get rid of lt? modle number dp37647-e-mail [email protected]

Sounds like you just need to change your display mode, look on the remote for a button that says zoom, also in your display menu with your remote, there also should be a setting that allows you to switch from standard widescreen etc. choose full screed or wide screen mode that should get you back to full screen, please keep me posted I would be glad to Trouble shoot this issue until resolved.

Select Language

With electronics sources or monitors,asking a language preference is a first or early step in initial programming.To analyze the source of the "which language " request--dis-connect the cable box temporarily and hook up signal direct to tv.If ? is still there,the tv is asking it. If ? is gone,then the source box was asking. Any further assistance needed,please let me know.
