  • Download an 8×8 checkerboard patter, such as this one.
  • Make sure your computer’s resolution is set to 1360×768; its native resolution.
  • View the image in full screen (so that only it’s being displayed on screen and nothing else).
  • Recalibrate.

The TV should now report a successful calibration.

Note: There are no guarantees, I am not responsible for any damage, and the warranty of your TV is taken into your own hands when performing this ritual.
