I have an interesting question for all of you:
 
What do you think of the quality/characteristics of the picture
you see on new TVs on display in stores?

Your obsession with in-store displays, and your absurd fantasy that you
know something about video calibration, are only "interesting" to you and
other retards.

Theckmah rides his hobby horse. He's hoping someone will agree with his
retarded gibbering. He's been laughed out of other froups, and outright
banned from most moderated forums he's posted to, for being a drooling
moron with his bizarre obsessions. What a fucking shit-for-brains (and
that's an inuslt to shit).

Sony never made an LCD screen for TVs as far as I've ever seen. Since the TCONs are shipped with the display, they would match the vendor for the display screen.
 
As far as schematics or datasheets, I've had some luck on Russian websites where they didn't seem available on the web, Elektrotanya included.. Just run a page through Google Translate.
 
Also, for reasons I don't understand, I find that sometimes Elektrotanya's own search will return nothing, but if I use the Google Advanced Search and put Elektrotanya's web address in the site box and then put in my search parameters, I can often find a manual there.

True. Not for consumer TV's. The Sony, Hitachi and Toshiba LCD panel
divisions, were merged into Japan Display in 2011:
<https://www.j-display.com/english/>
The industrical displays are sold under the KOE name:
<http://www.koe.j-display.com>
<http://www.koe.j-display.com/index.php?option=newproduct&task=showpage&id=43>
Japan Display makes smartphone, tablet, laptop and medical LCD
displays but no consumer TV displays.

Yes. The TV set is Sony, but this particular TCON is made by Samsung,
and the schematic was easy to find (IIRC it is from Elektrotanya)

He would not be doing any software reloading. The various software
vendors would charge him to have someone do it online using remote
control software, or I would end up doing it. For the operating
system and network setup, I would be doing the work. Going from an
old XP machine to a new Win 10 machine is not easy and does take some
time.
 
The customer is the auto shop where my car (Subaru 2001 Forester L)
was getting a new drive shaft. Don't ask what happened. The Dell
GX620 SFF computer ran Windoze XP and was used mostly for looking up
vehicle parts, instructions, procedures, specs, etc and running
various engine analyzers. There were other computers available that
could do all this, but this one was in a convenient location. After I
was sure that the computer had a motherboard problem, I discussed
various options with the owner. We both wanted a new and better
replacement, but I didn't have time to do much more than a quick fix.
So, I recommenced a quick fix in the form of a new motherboard. If it
didn't work, we go shopping for a replacement. I paid for expedited
shipping and had it fixed 4 days later. The old machine was somewhat
functional during the 4 days as long as it was allowed to cool down
between lookups. Eventually, the machine will be replaced with
something better, but for now, getting it back in operation without
reloading old software and dealing with a possible XP VM (virtual
machine) to run the old software made the motherboard replacement a
good idea. Since they gave me a good price on the drive shaft work, I
don't plan to bill them for the $40 or the 1.5 hr labor needed to do
the computer work.
