I'm trying to use the Seiki 4k display model SE39UY04 with a Retina, 15-inch, Early 2013 MacBook Pro at 3840×2160 @ 30 Hz running Mavericks. I've gotten it to work twice now on two different days, but upon returning my MacBook to the display and trying to reconnect, I'm now failing again on the third try. Each time I've had to fiddle with it for around 45 minutes until I somehow got it to work. At first it appeared that using SetResX was incompatible, so I uninstalled that and it seemed to help. While away from the monitor, I added QuickRes as an alternative to SetResX, but now, even after rebooting multiple times and no longer running QuickRes, I'm unable to get the external display to work today. The symptom is that the Seiki gives the message Not Support so it seems it sees a signal that it does not support. I'm using the HDMI cable included with the monitor.
Are there any tools that I can use to help debug why this works intermittently? Is there some kind of driver that needs to be updated? Does this symptom suggest the HDMI cable is flaky? Is there a good order to attach the screen relative to the built in display being on (laptop lid up)?
Here is output to /var/log/system.log after plugging in the HDMI cable:

To resolve the issues described, the Seiki monitor needs its firmware updated. The instructions on the Seiki website are incorrect for this monitor. Here are the correct instructions to update the firmware:
Download the .rar/.zip file and extract the "install.img" file to a freshly formated (FAT32) thumbdrive
Put the thumb drive in USB port 1 (the one on the back, not the side)
Turn the TV on
On your remote press the "menu" button
Then on your remote press "0" 4 times, that will take you into the service menu.
In the service menu choose the software upgrade option
Screen will display upgrade animation
Patiently wait for the upgrade to finish
Turn off TV when finished
Disconnect thumb drive
