I have a Samsung LN46C630 that got fried through an HDMI cable. Replaced the main board because of visible burn spots near the HDMI connection and in another spot near a heat sink. TV came on fine and was great for a few days but it started powering off and on randomly. The capacitors on the power board look great. Could something else be wrong in the power board from the surge?

I would replace the power supply as they are not too expensive.
New M/board, should be OK. Have you checked the RAM for errors and installed the latest BIOS firmware?

Is the main board used? You can verify the dc outputs of the power supply before and after the problem occurs to get some ideas if is si main board or power supply module.

Replacing main board on Samsung 43" model UN43NU6950FXZA

It sounds like you have already tried replacing the main board on your Samsung 43" model UN43NU6950FXZA TV, but are still experiencing issues with it. Since you mentioned that you have back lighting and can hear sound, but nothing appears on the screen, it could be a problem with the display panel itself or with the cables connecting the display panel to the main board.
Here are some troubleshooting steps you can try:
Check the connections between the main board and the display panel. Make sure they are properly seated and secure.
Try using a different HDMI cable to connect your Roku to the TV. If possible, try connecting a different device to the TV using HDMI to see if the issue is specific to the Roku.
Check for any visible damage or cracks on the display panel.
Try resetting the TV to its factory settings. This can usually be done through the TV's menu settings.
If none of these steps work, it may be necessary to have a professional repair technician take a closer look at the TV to diagnose and fix the issue.

Samsung 46 Inches LCD TV Model#LN46C630 Black Screen with Sound

Back - light problem. Check and replace damaged component/s at its back-light inverter board, or replace this board as card basis. If you wish to get some details; check the site linked here. Surf the site with patience. Pull up older posts. It will be best to replace the inverter board as card basis. http://electronicshelponline.blogspot.com/ To some model sets; especially LED back-lighted types; the back-light inverter circuit will be part of the main power supply board [SMPS]. In such cases, the power supply board might need replacement. To some models sets, the back-light inverter and SMPS section circuit will be integrated at its main board itself. If so; the main board should be replaced. To some models of sets, all these section circuit will be integrated at its main board. If this is the case, you have to replace the main board.

Vizio tv says no signal on any of the hdmi ports

Unfortunately, you fried the HDMI controller. Not necessarily part of the power supply "main board." (Not sure which board is the HDMI controller in your specific TV. It's usually a separate board by itself). Easiest workaround is to use the "Component" cable connectors. The downside is you only get 720P. However, most cable/satellite and _all_ antenna signals are only 720P anyway. Most people only see 1080P when viewing Blu-Ray discs. Aside from replacing the HDMI controller, the cheapest workaround for multiple source connections is to buy an HDMI to Component Converter A/V box, which allows you to connect multiple devices to one box with one set of Component cables connecting to the TV. Then select various "sources" via the box.

Reset samsung tv without remote

Is the backlight on? If it is, then your main board is probably fried and will need to be replaced as well. Just hope that the main board didn't kill your new power supply board...

Absolutely no power on my Toshiba flatscreen lcd led tv. In a lighting storm we unplugged all of the appliances. This tv still was damaged because it was connected to the cable box via a hdmi cable. Not a...

If the HDMI cable was the only connection, then the high voltage pulse would have had to go through one or more of the video wires in the cable, through the video board, and back out the HDMI cable shielding. What troubles me is you should see the unit come up to standby and refuse to power on. That suggests there was something else connected besides the HDMI cable or the base made a decent ground. At least the panel is worth $150 or so (it is highly unlikely it was damaged).
