This is tough to diagnose because it could be the remote or the television. There are no listings for the remote. Check to see if there is a light on the remote that comes on when you press a button to show that it is sending. Check and see if there is a light on the monitor that shows if it is receiving a signal from the remote. Usually the remote fails first. You might want to try a universal smart remote to see if it can be programmed to activate the television.
The flashing blue light shows that the TV is receiving I.R. from the remote but doesn't mean that the signal being received is recognized by the Samsung. If you have a "universal" remote then your TV code may need to be re-entered/reprogrammed...changing batteries in a "universal" will usually require it to be reprogrammed. Also...because of the remotes construction (rubber membranes with carbon dots that short across PC traces) I've seen certain buttons stop working altogether.
