My Z7+ hangs once I click on the Start button. Hope it’s just that the servers are busy.

Excitedly updated this morning. Switched to standby mode. Left it for a few hours.

Came back to test it out.

Annnnnnnnnndddddddd.....

Stuck in standby mode. 🙁

Maybe the August update will fix the standby bug...

. Edit:

Weird thing though... It’s set to ‘power off’ mode, but when I press the power button on remote it briefly says “Enter Eco Standby!” at the bottom of the screen before turning off. Seems to boot up quicker now - less time spent staring at the wobbly circle. Better than nothing I suppose... 🎉

Seems like the update bricked one of my z7+. Can't do anything with it. Tried reloading image file with USB key to no avail. Just keeps rebooting and cycling between formuler splash screen and coloured circle. Sometimes the android logo comes up laying down with a red !. Can't seem to bring it back to life!

The EPG is still a bag of shite.

I thought it was getting cached from now on?
