Question

BDE6500 Browser does not activate

New BDE6500. Everything works except the browser. The little circle arrow just keeps going round and round. All firm and software has been updated. Any ideas?

Hi danieldefasson,

To obtain the web browser version: Load Smart Hub and highlight the web browser icon and then press the info button once, a pop up then appears and displays the version.

To obtain the Smart Hub Version/Unique ID/Memory Usage: Load Smart Hub and press the Tools button on the remote, move down to Settings>About Smart Hub.

I do not see it anywhere on my Facebook page. If you saw it, please tell me where it is.
Is it on your Facebook page? If so, where? Can you just email me the information?

Hi danieldefasson,

I saw the response on our page. You likely got a notification inside of Facebook, but that's all moot now. I understand there was an update today that you should get the next time you start the browser, and we're getting reports so far that it's working.

If you still want us to message you in Facebook, you have to like the page: it's not our rules; it's just how Facebook works. I suppose a means of protection for consumers to ensure that their privacy isn't being invaded.
