    • We tried “Step 1” listed below the video and it worked. Step 1: While your TV set is turned off, press the following on your remote control quickly and in this sequence – MUTE button, 1, 8, 2, and then the POWER button. We found a great solution, try the MEE Audio Connect. Check out the product review.

        • Hi Teresa, this is certainly a very popular post. Not all Samsung models are supported by this hack. Please click on the comments of the YouTube video for some trouble shooting help. We found a great solution, try the MEE Audio Connect. Check out the product review.

          • I watched video as you described. In the video BT address said not supported when bt was turned on the bt address had a code. On my tv when bt was turned on the address still was not supported. So blue tooth shows up in settings in will not find bt devises.

          • Unfortunately, this may be due to a power issue. The BT on your TV was just designed to support a keyboard. Try the MEE Audio Connect, it is a small device about the size of a golf ball and it will connect your Smart TV to your Bluetooth speakers. MEE Audio also has good customer support if your TV cannot configure properly.

        • I did all the steps I got it to show bluetooth in the menu but my headphones would never pair so I am going to get a transmitter instead

          • Hi, I think it is related to the BlueTooth on the TV being weak and only strong enough for a BlueTooth keyboard. The MEE Audio Connect is highly recommended.

      • Thank you, I have a ue40h6240ak Samsung and this worked for me as far as bluetooth option showing, howeve it’s not listing any headphones, do they have to be a Samsung make please?

        • Hi, no they do not have to be Samsung bluetooth speakers. The TV has bluetooth which allows you to also add a bluetooth keyboard, but to turn on the bluetooth for headphones/speakers does not always work for everyone.

  4. How do you know about these combinations ?
    As I have remote with Touch Pad and Voice control which even does not allow to press both of above Options.
    That means each remote and tv model has different combination to show Secret Menu.
    However when I press pairing remote with bluetooth which is working fine, then how come my headphone with blue tooth doesn’t work?

  6. I’ve done a walk through and done everything that was listed in order
    And when I got down to where it says
    Turn off the power then back on
    Select sound and then sound settings
    And wait about a minute and turned
    The tv back on I didn’t see A BLUETOOTH
    OPTION AT THE END BUT ALL MY SELECTIONS ARE STILL ON

  9. Hi, My TV is Samsung UA55F6400. I went into the Secret menu and set both Engineer Option > BT AUDIO ON OFF = ON and MRT Option > BT Support = ON, but still no bluetooth speaker setting available in the TV Menu. Any other setting do I need to adjust? Thanks.

    • Hi HJ, sorry to hear about your frustration. Please note that this hack is not supported by all Samsung TVs please look at the comments of the YouTube video for additional help. We found a great solution, try the MEE Audio Connect. Check out the product review.

    • I was able to follow every step and able to see BT speakers as an option; however it would never find any of my BT speakers when searching. I tried several different ones.

      • Hi, for some TVs, the Bluetooth may not be strong enough for speakers only wireless keypads. Please see out review of the MEE Audio Connect as it will offer you a solution all in the size of a small golf ball. With this device you can pare any bluetooth speakers with ease. The device even supports optical audio cable.

  10. I think i screwed up. The secret menu didn’t appear inmediately so i pressed the power button just before it appeared. Now the combination to access doesn’t work anymore. What can i do? I’ll appreciate any help. Thank you!

    • Solved the access to the menu, but eventhough i configured bt audio on and bt support on, it still doesn’t show. I’ll wait for your answer cause i’m not the only one with this result. Thanks! We found a great solution, try the MEE Audio Connect. Check out the product review.

      • Mine did the same thing. How did you solve the access to the menu issue? I got there once and turned bluetooth on, but can’t access secret menu again.

        • Not sure… Best bet is to look at the comments from the actual YouTube video. We found a great solution, try the MEE Audio Connect. Check out the product review.

    • Hey MFI, same exact thing happened to me. I love how you replied and said you solved getting to the menu but totally left out any instruction of HOW you actually did so. Trying to re-access the Engineering Menu still to no avail. Any help on how to get it back after accidentally hitting “powe after its delayed arrival on-screen?

  11. Made the changes in the secret menu. Bluetooth address did show up under contact Samsung but it is :00:00:00:00:00:00. Still no Bluetooth under speaker settings. Any ideas?

    • It does not work on all Samsung TVs… Also might depend in what country you purchased your TV. We found a great solution, try the MEE Audio Connect. Check out the product review.

    • Depending on the Samsung TV model you have and which country you purchased it in, it may not work. We found a great solution, try the MEE Audio Connect. Check out the product review.

      • I have the UN58MU6070 and bought it in Canada. Same issue, the secret menu worked and the speaker list is there but when I try to pair two different headphones it doesn’t pair. Do you know if there is anything I can do to make it work? We found a great solution, try the MEE Audio Connect. Check out the product review.

        • I am testing a new solution soon. It could be that your TV will only allow low powered BT devices like a keyboard, but not audio which requires a faster connection to keep up with the action on screen. We found a great solution, try the MEE Audio Connect. Check out the product review.

    • Sorry, all info available is in the video. You may also want to check the comment section of the actual YouTube video for additional information. We found a great solution, try the MEE Audio Connect. Check out the product review.

  15. HI, In many cases the Bluetooth Module in not installed. The secret menu shows no MAC Address for that. I did the configuration and the Audio menues are ON, and shows Bluetooth options, i can search for bluetooth speakers, but nothing happend…. just searching. If the bluetooth module in not instaled, you have no hardware to do the job. I have a UN43mu6100 series and i lived in argentina. I´ll try to buy a bluetooth module to install.
    Thanks for your help! I posted this to help someone

    • te recomiendo que busques en Aliexpress…me encargue un transmisor/receptor bluetooth con salida de audio óptico y me funciona de maravillas! solo 18 USD. Saludos desde Chile

    • I found that not all the menu options were visible. Select an option, then use the up/down options to go through all available settings. You will find some that are not otherwise visible in the main menu.

      Do this in both the Engineer and MRt menus. Make sure any BT options are enabled, also any sound mirroring or sharing.

      Once again, there are options that are only visible by scrolling through up/down. Not all options are visible in the main menu windows.

  16. hello
    I have a UN50MU6070FXZA and been trying to get the bluetooth to work
    and finally found the secert menu with (mute,1,8,2,power) and the option BT_AUDIO_ON_OFF -> ON…….now the secert menu won’t work at all and I can’t go back into with (mute,1,8,2,power) …..do you have any advice to get the secert menu to work again thankyou and have a nice day

    • Maybe try unplugging your TV and disconnecting from the internet for about 5 minutes. We found a great solution, try the MEE Audio Connect. Check out the product review.

  17. I am afraid to try this hack. Not one person on this tread was able to do the hack successfully. If there are people where this hack has worked on there 6290 it would be great to hear from you. From what I’m reading here, why chance screwing up your tv?

    • Some Samsung models allow you to go into the secret menu, but still do not allow you to enable the Bluetooth. Sorry… We found a great solution, try the MEE Audio Connect. Check out the product review.

    • Unfortunately, the TV does have bluetooth which allows you to add a bluetooth keyboard, but not all Samsung TVs allow the pairing of Bluetooth headphones/speakers. Maybe if enough people complain, Samsung can unlock this feature through an update. We found a great solution, try the MEE Audio Connect. Check out the product review.

    • Unfortunately, it does not work on all TV models from Samsung. It is frustrating because you can add the Bluetooth option through the secret menu, but it will not recognize your bluetooth speaker or headphones.
