360 box - no planner, recordings, apps

My 360 box has been misbehaving since last night.

The planner won't load, my recordings have all vanished, and the apps won't load. My broadband appears to be fine, and the apps are all working on my telly.

It's been turned off and I've reset my hub to no avail. Any ideas?

How's the 360 connected to your hub, ethernet cable or wi-fi, have you checked the hubs connection to the 360 by going to Settings > System > Diagnostics.

It's connected by ethernet. I'll give the diagnostics a go.

The diagnostic check shows no issues. My broadband speed is spot on, and all of my channels are there. Still no guide, apps, or recordings.

Have you checked your Service Status if that shows nothing you could also try the automated Service Status number  0800 561 0061 which often gives details of more local issues down to postcode level.

If both of those show nothing you could try a factory reset if you haven't already tried that, go to Settings > System > Factory Reset

It's only a partial system reset and not a complete factory reset. You are given 2 options,

Keep Recordings
Format Disk

Choose Keep Recordings, that means you won't lose your recordings and any planned recordings or series links
you've set up, you will have to sign into your apps such as iPlayer, Prime, Netflix and ITVX again, also Match
frame rate and Standby power consumption will go back to their default settings if you have changed them.

If none of the above helps you can either call Virgin on 150 from a Virgin phone, mobile or landline, or 0345 454 1111 from any other phone to report a fault, or wait here for one of the forum team to pick this up which might be 2 to 3 day's.

I did a factory reset before an engineer's visit. It fixed the issues but my recordings never came back. It's worked OK since.
