Mine isn't working either. (using T-mobile M8) I wonder if it has something to do with TV providers being selected, I chose over the air maybe it cant access that data correctly (although it does come up with the most extensive list of over the air channels I have seen for my area some of which I've never even gotten with my 8 rooftop)
It sucks that you cant set up the remote without finishing this setup.
EDIT:
Just tried it with time warner setup and TV provider not listed it still wont work.

Same error here on TMobile M8 and Viper Rom

Getting the same error on my wife's Verizon One M8. I was able to set mine up just fine, same type of phone, just a couple of hours before she tried hers.

I set it up the night that I got it just fine. T-Mobile M8 running Viper Rom. Best bet would be to go into Settings>Apps> and clear out the data for the TV app, then try again? If not then idk

I tried everything! Clear out app data. Uninstalled update. Restarted the phone. Etc. Nothing seems to work. The weirdest part is that I was able to do it just a couple hours before she tried. Doesn't make any sense!

Guys, just to let everyone know that I tried one hour ago and it finally worked, so check again
Sent from my HTC One_M8 using Tapatalk

Yup. Working now. Strange

I tried yesterday right after I got the phone but it wasn't working. I'll check and see now

Yep, worked for me tonight too! Weird...

You also found more TV apps in Play Store.

Media server battery drain issue

I have searched a few times for a resolution to this problem, but have been unable to find one that works. I have noticed that when the media server shows up under my battery stats screen I usually have an update waiting on play store.
Is there any way play store could be the cause?
In other posts I see people complaining of 10-20% battery consumption. Mine has hit up to ~70% battery consumption.

Sorry, I forgot to mention I'm running 4.3 stock firmware non rooted.

Turn your data off when you're not using it. But most likely it's an app causing a wakelock.

Turning off data did not help, but the cause you mentioned is probably correct.

Use my settings , once you set thise settings , before exiting the app , hit kill server and see that helps

Ok this may be a dead question, but something I would like to add. For the past two days I have not seen the media server in my battery stats. This is a shot of what I saw this evening. Which this is what I think my battery page should look like. I have not made any changes that would explain why it's not showing up. Any ideas or comments appreciated.

I've only noticed media sever when I ise streaming apps , loke Pandora , youtube and so on... have you used any of those apps ?
Sent from my SPH-L710 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app

Not today, not sure about yesterday. This is not the only time it has not shown up for a few days. I also have not had any app updates. I think it's like bilgerryan stated that something is causing a wake lock but I close out apps when I finish. And usually use avg task killer to kill most running tasks.

Snoopwall alerts?

Hello to all,, I have my tab pro 8.4 rooted. I don't remember installing anything called snoopwall and don't see it in app manager either.
What is this and where did snoopwall come from, and can I remove it ?
I just recently started getting them.

OK, this might be a really stupid question, but did you try a google search?

LOL really? Of course I did.
I have found that it's some sort of security app, but I haven't installed any of that so I'm stumped at how to disable it, or where I t came from.

Dunno how to remove it (yet), but maybe it hitchhiked in on another app? I hate when app makers bundle other stuff in their apps but it happens on occasion.
EDIT: Ah, think I found out why you can't remove it. According to:
https://snoopwall.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/201186946-Why-is-the-uninstall-button-greyed-out-
"SnoopWall needs to be an administrator of your device in order to block access to ports. This means that the administrator access needs to be removed before uninstalling. To do this you should go to security under settings and then click device administrators then uncheck SnoopWall. After this you should be able to uninstall SnoopWall just like any other app."

Mee too
I am having the same experience on a S4. Anyone figure out where this came from?
I don't have an entry under Application Manager for Snoopwall, nor does Titanium see it.
Pissing me off...

Same, I don't see any entry's at all. I'm pretty sure it piggy backed on another app.
Just don't know which one cause it waited a while before giving a notification
I'm thinking of just wiping data and starting fresh

When I had first encountered it, I was unsure how it got installed.
After I flashed a custom ROM it went away, so I figured it was from Samsung
Well it just popped up again, and it did it when I logged into my bank app.
So I removed the notification then logged back into it and it popped up again
So its my backing app lol, basically telling me that I have root
Sent from my SM-T320 using Tapatalk

Why does a banking app need to b checking if u r rooted?

Prob, its more or less for security, because if your not carefully your personal info could be stolen

SnoopWall Mystery
If you bank at a Credit Union and have Installed their APP. More than Likely it installed SnoopWall. Go to the APP and find the security setting and you can set them or turn SnoopWall off.

Maps secretly running?

Somehow my maps app is running in the background and draining my battery. I checked greenify and it says the app is hibernated. What is going on? Thanks for your help.

Same thing happened to me. Couldn't force stop it either. After a reboot it was gone and the problem hasn't resurfaced.

Anyone know what causes this?
Sent from my Nexus 5X using Tapatalk

As per the SS it is mostly gps which can be activated by many apps.
Greenify to be honest is pretty useless lately and has been seen to cause more issues then anything.

I have the same issue with no known root cause. Once I use Google Maps, I have to turn location services off, close the app and reboot. That's the only thing that ensures the GPS isn't being used by the app (causing unnecessary battery drain). I have the app greenified as well, but doesn't help.

Anyone have some insight into why this happens n how to effectively stop it from happening other than reboot? Thank you kindly.

Anyone?

Guess not. Maybe @SlimSnoopOS might be able to help but this is just a dumb situation. And I hate using Maps because I know it requires a reboot at the end..

In Location settings, have you turned off WiFi and Bluetooth Scanning? Maybe even Location Reporting?

Whoops, forgot it was renamed. I meant Location History. Which GPS setting do you use? I leave mine on GPS only, typically I have it off unless I'm out of the house.

Location history is turned on, but that does prove to be useful for retaining certain information for maps...ultimately I don't want to lose functionality in order to fix what seems like a bug...

I used Package Disabler Pro to change permissions and can now uninstall. It does not look like a system app. I disabled it and both usage has dropped! Should I uninstall it?

Tap on settings, Data usage and then Data saver.. Turn it on and then tap on "Allow unrestricted data usage" then tap on the 3 little dots in the top right corner and select show system apps then go through the list and uncheck anything you don't want using a lot of data without permission.. Package disabler can also be used to disable an app entirely like the other poster said. I think turning on Data saver is better first though so you know what else is on.
This is for Android N by the way.

Thanks for the reply. I'm the other poster. The question I'm really trying to ask is, is that a true system app or is it some other app with a system app icon? That's why P.D.P. gives the option to uninstall. I don't think P.D.P. can uninstall a true system app.

No it's not a real app, or not a needed app anyways! I don't have that on any Samsung that I have and yours is using way way wayyy to much internet and power! I'd get rid of that if I were you!! None of my file managers have ever needed to use any internet like that!! I use root explorer!

Thanks. I uninstalled it! I'm gonna ODIN Nobarb's full package for a fresh install.
