I NEED THE SOFTWARE FOR MY TV SHARP LC-46XD1E

The main power supply regulator section circuit fault. Either it will be a separate board, or the part of main board. Check and replace damaged component/s at its main power regulator [SMPS] section circuit. Contact any service technician. If you wish to get some details; check the site linked here. Pull up older posts. http://electronicshelponline.blogspot.com/ It will be best to replace the power supply regulator board as card basis rather than making "Surgery" to it; which usually will make loss for both money and time. Even though you can make it right, it will cost around an amount equal to the cost of a new board; including the cost of (spare parts + service charge) More to say, most of the spare parts to it will be difficult to get from open electronic spare part market. This is true to most of the flat panel TV power supply boards; irrespective of its brand and screen size.

Get the update from Sharps website. Load it on an EMPTY formatted usb thumb drive. From he setup menu on the TV select software update.

Go to shopjimmy.com and get a universal stand. It attaches to the back of the TV just like a wall mount.

Check this link to download the user manual to your set. It have all details.

the service menu can only be accessed with a "service remote" only available to certified Sharp service techs... special training and $350 required to become one... contact sharp for more info or find a repair man locally if you dont want to become one yourself... the training is a lecture

Tries websites like Amazon.com,Ebay.com to buy a used or new tv base stand.Cost might run u like $25-30 for a used one and $40-50 for a new one.

Are you sure it is the remote that has stopped working? If you get something like a camera phone and put it over the LED on the remote and press the buttons (with the phone in camera mode) the camera will pick up the infered signal from the remote. This will rule out if it is the TV or remote.

If you get the infered signal then your TV is faulty (possibly a main pcb fault) if you dont then it is your remote. Which as far as I am award you can not reprogram, but you can get them from places on the internet (search on google) for a couple of 10 pound.
