For owners of Samsung televisions, Smart Hub is essentially the gateway to entertainment: from TV-compatible applications to web contents, it provides all sorts of things. Usually, everyone could access Smart Hub and get the most out of it at any time they like but there is one exception: updates. If people access it during updates, Smart would display a brief message that says “Samsung TV Smart Hub is being updated. Please try again later”. Supposedly, the message should disappear when the updates complete but some complain that it persists for quite some time and prevents access to Smart Hub.
