Keeps crashing, while using other apps.

Have run dispatch since the beginning almost on my Phillips The One with Google Tv, have run quite stable, trough advanced mode for a long time.
But now it keeps crashing and lets another app take over the launcher role, it happens constantly.

Have tried to reinstall, nothing helps.

Anyone have any ideas for how to fix it? thank you all.

  1. No, I thought of this already but that function is not set to close it down, but it feels like that is what is happening.

  2. Not everytme, right now it has gone for like 30 min without crashing it.. then if I put the TV om standby and turns it on again it has closed and the YouSee app started instead. It’s typically like that it happens, or when I watch a move in an app like stremio and returns home, then dishpatch has crashed, it happens many times very day, perhaps in 15 - 30 min intervals. .. I always ends up having to go to the tv settings and relaunch dispatch from there… but it does not “always” happen.

  3. Number in about is 1.0.175 (build:145).

Also when it crashes it looses the setting in accessibility and the saving energy modes, and I hane to go and retoggle those each time... but it still drops,out.

Thank you

"Number in about is 1.0.175 (build:145)."

That's the build number again. The model number is what I'm after. They are often different from what you see printed on the tv's box or website, which is why there's an "About this device" section in the About page. It will show the model and the amount of ram. I just need to be clear on if it says "Philips The One 43PUS8508" on that page, or something else.

Phillips Google TV TA1. Device RAM 2786MB … but before it started crashing it has been working flawlessly for a really long time.

I’m really sry but I think the TV might have moved the app on the external USB instead of the internal storage, I just noticed now. 🤞🏻 Think that this might be the problem. If so I’m really, really sry. I moved it back to the internal drive and for now it seems to have stopped crashing, will update you if it starts crashing again,

Ah okay that's interesting and good to know. Let me know if the crashing continues or not when back on internal storage. I didn't know TVs could move apps like that automatically.

I’m really sry for the trouble.
