ebr 14944 Posted April 4, 2019 Share Posted April 4, 2019 I really don't know what is happening here but the Android system is shutting down our activity. The way this would most likely occur is that something else on the device is grabbing the focus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ebr 14944 Posted April 4, 2019 Share Posted April 4, 2019 What about the Live Channels app? I know I periodically see messages from it that it is scanning for tuners while I'm working in other apps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrfragger 39 Posted April 4, 2019 Share Posted April 4, 2019 (edited) I think you misunderstood the post I pointed to. That user had his device in developer mode and had disabled the screen saver in that mode. He then re-enabled it and I think the problem went away. Counter-intuitive, I know... Not sure if this is related. I installed Emby server beta on an nvidia shield .19 and as soon as I enabled the server on it closed out emby server app immediately. I did have some developer options enabled and even tried disabling them. Long long long story short. I did a factory reset and it works beautifully now. That was 2 days ago.
