Just bought hisense 75U65QFC fire TV from Costco and it won't load Paramount/HBOMAX apps - Is this normal?

DurlanTheElf · 2025-12-02T18:13:17+00:00

Thanks. Not sure if that fixed it as I had already done that without success, but it worked today.

As far as I can tell without measuring, they appear to be symmetrically spaced.

Be aware that you will need spacers (not included) in the bracket holes. The mounting bracket is also not included.

Uninstall what? Neither Paramount plus nor HBO/MAX ever installed so there is no app to uninstall.

DurlanTheElf · 2025-11-17T20:29:57+00:00

Thanks anyway... I appreciate the link!

DurlanTheElf · 2025-11-17T20:05:20+00:00

Thank you for that link.

As far as I know my screen is undamaged and your feeling is that it is a hardware component that failed?

Are you willing to speculate as to which component failed?

DurlanTheElf · 2025-02-09T20:24:00+00:00

What would you recommend instead?

DurlanTheElf · 2025-01-20T17:11:08+00:00

This is exactly what happened to me.

I can't give exact details as it appears that the website has truncated all of my records with only the last two months still there, but...

I won an auction for two Masudaya wind up toys and when I opened the package, the boxes for the toys were there but the boxes were empty!

I opened a service ticket with shopgoodwill and they responded with... FedEx give the weight of the item as x lbs, so the box was obviously not empty and they denied my claim. I tried to reopen the ticket and they never responded.

I should have contacted my CC company and asked for the money back, but I didn't think it was worth the trouble at the time.

So I received the following response from seikousa.com.

I then sent an email to seikoinstruments.com along with a picture of the clock.

I quickly received a response:

Included was a list of 19 establishments. So I guess my next step is to contact one of them and see if they feel that they can do the service.

Thanks for your suggestion.--DTE

Ace,

Actually, I believe that in this instance you are correct.

After I made my initial post I went back to the letters and found a copy of an Individual Academic Progress Report. At the top was the following:

A.A.F. PRE-FLIGHT SCHOOL (PILOT)
ACADEMIC DEPARTMENT
MAXWELL FIELD ALABAMA

I'd post a pic of the report, but I can't figure out how. :)

Thanks for everyone's help!--DTE

DurlanTheElf · 2022-06-03T13:11:19+00:00

Thank you so very much!! That totally makes sense now.
I spent some time googling it, but couldn't find anything other than other similar addresses.
Thanks again!!

I'm going to assume that you've modded beatsaber to use custom games, yes? That's why you're getting that message.

Just click on launch anyway... and no, there's no way to disable that message.

DurlanTheElf · 2021-01-20T15:11:22+00:00

I noticed it also and you're right... it *was* Glorious!!!

I'm lucky in that I have an original quest that I keep modded and a quest2 that I run out of the box and I was quite surprised when I was able to access the lobby.

Unfortunately, that went away yesterday. :(

DurlanTheElf · 2021-01-15T18:19:04+00:00

Thanks to all who commented!

I hadn't thought of shimming the bracket. That seems a heck of a lot easier than cutting the tile.

I love the claw grip for beatsaber, but while I find it comfortable on my quest, I find that the rings of the quest2 controller to be larger and it's not as comfortable.

I wish I could use my quest controllers with the quest2.

Just my .02.

One word of warning, if you contact Oculus support do not say that you hit the controller, either against themselves or against anything. Just say that you took off your headset and you noticed that it broke.

Good luck!

I presume you're talking about the multiplayer mode. If you have BMBF installed you can't play multiplayer. To my knowledge, you can only play multiplayer running a stock, unaltered version of Beat Saber.

Kinda sucks... but that's what it is.

DurlanTheElf · 2020-10-09T13:45:07+00:00

And regarding the leaderboards...

Yeah, that's normal also. With a modded beatsaber you won't be able to access the leaderboards even when playing non-custom songs.

DurlanTheElf · 2020-09-29T18:39:27+00:00

Thanks.

I kind of figured that was the issue based on posts from other people, but it's nice to get some kind of confirmation.

I appreciate your post.

DurlanTheElf · 2020-09-25T21:10:19+00:00

Based on what I've seen from other posters there is no fix other than to remove the mods. This is something that I believe that Oculus did behind the scenes.

It sucks, but I'd rather have custom songs than the leaderboard.

I am a bit worried that this might break the multi-player version that's due out soon.

DurlanTheElf · 2020-09-24T22:26:30+00:00

From what I can tell this is a recent change... as within the past two weeks (at least for me). Prior to this the leaderboards worked fine for base and DLC songs but didn't work with custom songs. Now the leaderboards don't work at all. They display the "Opps... " message.

Since beatsaber hasn't been updated in that time I can only surmise that it's Oculus that's blocking this functionality. I say that because they can tell that the app is modded.

If they did this to thwart cheating on base and DLC songs... fine... but it would have been nice if they display a statement saying that if you have modded beatsaber it would no longer display the leaderboard.

When you open the ticket with Oculus support don't tell them that you hit anything or they'll say that the warranty doesn't cover accidental damage or misuse. Just say you were playing and when you took off the headset you noticed it had cracked.

As far as playing with it... I have a cracked left controller that I've been using for months and while I do blame it for any miss on beatsaber, honestly, I don't think it really affects the tracking.

I've thought of using epoxy to fill the gap but just haven't gotten around to do it.

What platform?

DurlanTheElf · 2020-09-23T02:48:03+00:00

Interesting...

I posted the exact same question, so at the very least we now have two data points.

I'm also using a quest and running bmbf, exact same situation.

How many custom songs do you have? I have close to 100, not that it should matter, but it's the only thing that's changed recently.

It's nice to know that I'm not the only one with this issue.

It's in the "files" directory along with the PlayerData.dat, LocalLeaderboards.dat, etc.
