Hi. Thank you for the feedback. I have done so to no avail. I’ve replaced the HDD with another HDD to discard the possibility of a defective HDD. NOT! Weird thing is, once I formatted the new drive (multiple times), I could not transfer data to it. After that, a new “Android” drive shows under “Storage”, and after several attempts to do so, I now see several identical HDDs listed, besides the original one, but all say “Disconnected”. 
What gives? I think the BIOS needs rework. This is so disappointing!

I see 2 usb's not connected and 3 others listed that are connected (only have 3)

how did you format drive and what did you select?

If the streams are in HLS, they cannot be downloaded.
So maybe they changed streams recently to HLS.

Or if you're using XC login, maybe you have the stream type set to HLS.

all streams are ts

and I have ts set

also had no issue until I took updates on x5 and 4900

it turns red in suspend mode as well

try with it on to see it corrects wifi

then you should be able to turn it off

You'll have to open a ticket then

you're holding reset button down and then plugging in?

you have to hold button for 10 to 15 seconds

bluetooth on or off?

so 9 months in to my xrs4500 with buzzTV 5  the other day the picture froze then went completely DEAD...remote won't turn unit off as it's stuck in the "on" mode with a Black screen....
tried unplugging and re-connecting power several times...no bueno,
unplugged all wiring hooked up,let it sit overnight re-attached HDMI,LAN and Power...still no bueno,
replaced HDMI cable with TWO different cables that i KNOW work....still no bueno...
last thing i tried was a "hard" reset to see if it would put into boot mode...still...no bueno....
is there  ANYTHING else i can try to get it to work before i submit an RMA to buzzTV and send it back???....

what option did you select in android recovery screen?

have you tried turning wifi off and on?

no ethernet connected?

so others will know

it's the button with 3 lines beside the live tv button

menu/pvr/pvr options

what functions do you want to utilize?

in live tv go to menu/settings/check updates

it's an update(upgrade) not a clean install

yes
