Xfinity stream in Roku not showing all live channels

The Xfinity stream app is not showing all channels. It’s only showing a couple of dozen channels. This is on three different Rokus in my house. Have tried restarting the devices and the app and it has not changed. All channels show on the Xfinity box. Hopefully comcast is working to fix this.

Same issue here in Chicago suburbs. Such nonsense.  What the hell is going on?  I wasn't able to stream the football game on Thanksgiving so I'm hoping this inconvenience will be reflected in my bill.

@user_48e894​ another user in Chicagoland reported their issues resolved, mine are also resolved in Indianapolis, IN.  Possibly try restarting the device and uninstalling and reinstalling the app again. It didn’t work yesterday when I did that but it did today.

Xfinity customer service [Edited: "Language"]...It's at least an hour wait to talk to tech, about a problem that the customer service team has ZERO clue is going on. Why isn't Xfinity briefing their reps on problems that are affecting a ton of people? Because Xfinity [Edited: "Language"], that's why!!!

@user_740700​ When Xfinity uses foreign call centers, they are never updated timely. All they know how to do is read a script on how to unplug and power everything in your house. I've had many times when my internet was out, and the call center had no clue of it for at least an hour later. Even the postings on their website is at least an hour behind an issue happening, if at all. This is a massive problem that Xfinity needs to fix but because they are such a beast of a company, with limited if no competition in markets, they just don't care. As long as we keep giving them our money, they will keep things the status quo. As soon as another fast option is available I'll kiss them good-bye.

Mine was out of there yesterday. It is working today. Fingers crossed. It doesn’t go back out again since they don’t seem to know what the issue is.

I just cancelled Xfinity TV.  Went back to try YouTube TV after dealing with this and recalled how much better their product is than Xfinity stream.  The gap is wider now than it was a couple of years ago when I left.  Amazing that they had Stream in Beta forever and still can’t figure it out.

Xfinity cable service is great but if you can’t figure out streaming you have no future in tv.

Noticed issue on Thanksgiving. I have a TCL Roku tv. Sign out/in, reinstall, and power cycle did nothing. However selecting “restart channel” from the app options (select app in Roku Home Screen and hitting option button *) recovered my channel list. My previous efforts may have been necessary prior to this action but can’t say definitely.

@XfinityAmir - the problem has NOT been resolved. I had to update and reboot a few days ago, and that's when the problems started.

Started this thread or on a thread like it this morning, as our Roku devices were only showing 12 channels. Whatever Xfinity is doing they are all back up now. This is in a West Chicago Suburb. Good luck, now hoping for reflection on the bill for the B1G inconvenience over Thanksgiving....

I’m sorry to hear that some of you are still experiencing this inconvenience.  Ours away out all day yesterday (could have been out longer I’m not sure hadn’t been on Xfinity since Sunday) which was a nightmare cause my husband want to watch the game. Followed several troubleshooting shooting steps, but the problem remained.  Did the same steps this morning and got my channels back.  Here are the steps that I followed..

1. Uninstalled streaming app

2. cycled update server from secret menu

3. checked for updates via secret menu to get to menu follow these steps:

  • Press Home five times.
  • Immediately press Fast Forward three times.
  • Press Rewind twice. The Update and Reset secret menu should open 

4. reinstall streaming app

5. restart device from settings menu 

When I didn’t this last night it didn’t work, but this morning I was able to get my channels back

I called customer service. Had to wait 57minutes to speak to rep.  They resolved the issue in a few simple steps.   Logged out of stream app. Unplugged tv. They sent a refresh signal.  Plugged tv back in after 2 min. App worked as it should.  This is not the same refresh signal that resets cable box.

My channels suddenly came back today. I did do a “secret menu reset” thanks to @Ashley_L121 instructions. No clue if that actually helped but shout out and thank you to her regardless. Only advice I have is patience folks! I know it [Edited: "Language"] but try to just wait it out!

After numerous cable modem resets and app reloads, our Xfinity apps are now working. I think a significant part of the problem is Xfinity's lack of leadership about the app problem - little communication about the ongoing app problem which resulted in much confusion and ambiguity about how to fix it.
