June 2, 20206 yr Well issues. Remote is flaky when paired for Bluetooth. Had to turn bluetooth off for remote. Seen that issue posted already. The whole box seems sluggish. My apps are slow. Internet is slow. Older box faster all around. Wondering if it's android 9? My old box is 8. Wondering if I should have not updated. I purchased on the fact I was told it was a beast. Please help. Not happy at moment. Thank you.
June 2, 20206 yr The 4500 is fast.Thre are some apps that dont work well with android 9 but the app makers are catching up Install speedtest on your buzz and check your speeds You using 2.4 or 5? or hard wired? You might want to factory set and start over The remote goes to sleep when not in use and takes a few seconds to wake up before working properly Edited June 2, 20206 yr by nbs.
June 2, 20206 yr Author Thanks for the reply. It is hardwired with 600mb/s service. Did a factory reset. I figured maybe it might a android 8 vs 9 issue. One of the apps works great on Android 8, slow on 9. So I'm guessing the rest I see from people could be dealt with, with an update.

June 2, 20206 yr 2 minutes ago, Mark said: TvZion OkA Any other apps running slow or just that one? Some apps as nbs mentioned haven't updated their code to run properly on Android 9. But we will check this one out Let us know if any others.
June 2, 20206 yr Author Yes I understand that some may be behind on updating code. Thanks for the replies.
June 5, 20206 yr Author I'm curious is there any way it could be the internet priority these apps are getting. I hope I can explain this right. Is it possible the firmware is giving a higher priority to some apps more than others. Its seems the slow down i'm having is when its gathering data to do what it needs to do. The Buzztv4 app is very quick to load data and stream. Does any of this make sense? Thank you.

I'm using the xrs4500 for 3 months now ,I have the same apps that you have installed the tvzion, nordvpn plus some others extra ,true some of the apps are sluggish to load but I think is because of those particular apps like @allaboutbuzz said that they need updating, true the remote is kinda off problem but i bought the ARQ-100 remote and solve all the remote problems 😁, all in all no box is perfect.

June 5, 20206 yr Author So very true. I too ordered the keyboard remote. Ok well we'll see what happens. Thanks.
June 9, 20206 yr Author Well a update on the slow app issue. I disabled the NordVPN software. As in it's not connecting to anything at the moment. The apps mentioned have sped up. I started to think about connection stuff. I don't notice the slow down on the other box. Could be the nordvpn software is the issue as in compatibility or just doesn't like the environment.
