<p>Thank you droidbug. This answered my question and works.</p>

Hello,

Can someone please tell me how I can stop or kill a running application.

On occasion when I switch from one app to another the audio/ video from the first application will keep running, I want to end the process / application with out having to reboot the entire box.

Thanks.

Official statement, here it is.

[quote]EPG will be improved in the MYTVOnline release that will come middle of March (Test phase) and soon after that the official release.

Thank you for the feedback. Your response is appreciated. I am hopeful there will be a SIGNIFICANT improvement. Time will tell.

There is nothing personal here from me at least. Business is business. You have taken my money for a premium box, now I am asking for quality services so I can utilize it.

Your opinion of “improved” and my opinion of “quality” is subjective, but we (your customers) will surly let you know what “improvement” we see.

how long is the test phase? How much duration is between test phase and official release?

Thank you.

Hi,

I totally agree, keep the thread going, reply everyone, keep posting! Absolutely disgusting service with how this manufacturer has blatantly ignored us. We paid hard earned money on this piece of crap.

This box has such potential but the EPG has frustrated me so much with the mytvonline app. The most recent firmware update and mytvonline update are neglegable in features and really appear to have made minimal to no difference, in fact I personally notice a step back as mytv launcher always fails on startup now.

My amazon fire stick performs much better overall and costs a fraction of the z7+. Kodi or my IPTV providers APK loads the guide INSTANTLY!

I am also a software developer, this is not rocket science as others have said, but maybe the technical team at formuler are incompetent (fire those ppl and get ppl who can fix this, reality check) and not capable of such a trivial change. Maybe the architecture of this device or mytvonline app was flawed from the beginning and requires a full rewrite? We don’t know as there is no communication.

I also agree the lack of communication is totally inadequate, formuler customer service is a prime example of how to alienate its customers and run a company into the ground.

For people who suggest to spend 15-20 mins in the morning to load the app... REALLY??? Give your head a shake, that’s utterly ridiculous (posts like that make me think you are associated with formuler and biased, so absurd) I would be ok with turning the app on in the morning and letting it load the EPG for 15 mins (still slow and ridiculous) but it’s better then scrolling through each screen on my favourites and waiting 15-30 seconds for 5 channels to load. Btw I have 150 MBs speed (this is not slow due to my internet connection).

Also as other threads have described I have the issue where when I put my device in standby mode after spending time loading the EPG, sometimes the device will not turn back on, I have no choice but to unplug and then plug the device back in thus losing all my cached EPG (great job there as well formuler).

Maybe my response will get me blocked from this forum, not sure... but the truth hurts. I hope we get a fix but based on the prior Administrator response in this thread and them getting all defensive on a PM that someone else mentioned, this tells me they are not concerned about there customers and ensuring they are happy.

I want to be an advocate for the z7+ but at this current time I just cannot. My patience is wearing thin and I may abandon this device very shortly.

Keep posting please.
