Just tried a new Raspberry Pi 3 with the same old Samsung TV and I found I had to use the following settings:
hdmi_group=1
hdmi_mode=4
Not got optimised settings yet but I do have a picture.

Was having the exact same display problems with the same model of TV – 2 minutes reading this and I was up and running.

Many thanks and a happy new year to you!

Thanks for this! I have the same TV and having gone through the process of setting up, was hit with the same error. Very glad to find out there was a workaround rather than having to wait until I got my new TV.

Thanks for the post really useful. I too was having the Samsung TV problem with no picture. I’m afraid I choose the cheap option to edit the config file and plugged the sd card into my Mac and edited the config file that way. Cheers and happy christmas
