What am I doing with these remotes?
Just received my 2 remotes. Already have 2 x V6 boxes. Understood that you can upgrade to 360 using the remotes but I cant find instructions for this. Also read that all recordings need to be deleted before the upgrade, is this true? Can anyone help me please? Can you explain in layman's terms, I am not very good with technical stuff, thanks 😁😁108Views0likes7Comments360 remote no switch app on v6
Received 360 remote 4 days ago. Current box is v6 Have spent hours searching tips etc & following online instructions including disconnecting v6 box, rebooting wifi etc etc and still no switch app on the apps page. All options I can see online are now exhausted. Spent 2 hours trying to speak to virgin customer services and continually placed in a doom loop of recorded messages then cut off. Can't get through to a human. Have given up so any advice welcome. Thank you.62Views0likes3CommentsUpgraded from V6 to 360 and new remote does nothing
I've just completed the upgrade and am in the new interface. My old Virgin remote works but the new remote does absolutely nothing other than flash a white light at the top right of the remote. I've restarted the box and also removed the batteries in the new remote, replaced them and held the TV button + 0 for 10 seconds - again just flashes white. My VM box is behind the TV in a media wall. For the old remote this isn't an issue, will it be an issue with the new remote?Solved43Views0likes1CommentCan't change volume on TV with Virgin 360 remote
I've tried the key test on settings. Nothing happens when I press mute. I've tried resetting and repairing using the TV+0 and TV +<<< combinations. I've tried turning off and back on at mains. It's paired to the correct TV. I get a notification saying I should now be able to control volume with my virgin remote, and yet I can't. Any ideas? I've looked through most of the related threads on here, and haven't found anything that has worked. ThanksSolved92Views0likes5CommentsV6 not recording during standby
I have recently had my V6 TV box upgraded via software to 360 and have also received a new remote. In the settings there is a standby mode with timings of 4,5,6 & 24hrs before the box will switch off if idle and hasn't detected any active device connected to it. This creates a problem if I want to set to record programmes further ahead of 24hrs as when I am away the box will switch off and will therefore not record the set programmes. There is no setting I can find to switch off standby mode. I recently changed the standby timer from 4 to 24hrs as I found the box switched off when idle and did not record any scheduled programmes. Switching to 24hrs has made no difference other than keep the box awake longer so increasing the possibility of detecting a signal from my TV when it is switched on. This is particularly irritating in that if I am away for more than 24hrs there is no certainty that any scheduled recordings will proceed. My tv has a standby mode which can be disabled why has this new 'improved' Virgin box not have the same facility. My current standby settings are active start, 24hrs. My 360 box is Arris-DCX960-MPA+. Please advise if there is a software issue or a possible fault with the box (please note there was no issue before the software upgrade). Regards135Views0likes7CommentsProblems with 360 upgrade
I have a V6 box and received the remote to upgrade to 360. The problem is that the new software was installed but is now stuck on the video about the Remote and use of 360. The remote won't work on the screen or to switch off the box. I can use the remote though to switch through sources and the TV button works. I have tried all the suggestion on this Forum for switching the box on and off at wall socket, and with On-Off switch coupled with the power and + and/or - button. I've also switched the internet off and on. Any suggestions?Solved188Views0likes5CommentsHelp remote control 360
The remote 360 is broken and no longer works. I tried to order a replacement online and keep getting "Sorry, there was an issue placing your order" The chat with us online button on the page doesn't work and it tells me to call 150. When I call 150 and select remote problems it tells me to go to the website and hangs up on me. Since the website doen't work I'm left in a loop of it telling me to go to 150 and then 150 telling me to go back to the website. ive only seen this community today and its clearly a very common problem please can anyone help?52Views0likes2CommentsFinding a lost 360 remote
Hi, my mother in law has dementia and keeps losing her remote. We don't know where she puts but we can't find them in her relatively small house. Is there a way to find lost 360 remotes? I know you could make the old remotes bleep by pressing buttons on the box but I don't think you can do that with a 360 remote? Are there any tags you can attach to the remote to find them?5KViews0likes5CommentsSamsung Universal TV Remote and TV 360
Hi, I have been offered the upgrade to TV 360, which I will initiate when I get back from holiday. My TV is a Samsung which comes with a universal remote. This currently works well controlling the TV and the TIVO box. I've read the existing posts in the forum in relation to using the Samsung universal remote to control the TV 360, but there does not seem to be a definitive answer. So if anyone out there has successfully used their Samsung remote and the TV 360, please could list the steps you used to set it up. Any help gratefully received.
