The favorites have disappeared from cable box but are still available in the app.  I have rebooted and performed a system refresh to no avail.

I have the same issue here on set top box - no favorites but streaming app shows my favorite channels list.  Xfinity needs to send a notice on the tv box to all customers and then push the update correcting this.  What is the timeframe for this correction?

Ha ha ha. Timeframe? Whenever you get around to re-adding all your favorites one by one, apparently.

After spending an hour last night on the phone with Xfinity L1 support to no avail I figured this out this morning. Here is the true fix.

1. Basically what they have done in their infinite wisdom is deleted your favorites. And since your default view is probably set to favorites that’s why you’re getting the pop-up and no guide to display. The fixed is as follows, but it takes a bit.

2. Go to settings, preferences, and set your default view to either all channels or all HD channels as I did. Then your guide will work.

3. At this point, your guide will work well displaying all channels. So reset all of your favorites which will do it for all TVs in your house.

4. Then go Back to settings, preferences, and set your default view back To display favorites.

THIS WORKS!!!!!!!
