TVAPP-00148 Error in App

I am unable to use xfinity stream on one of three tvs in my household. Of course, it’s the tv I primarily watch. When I attempt to watch a live channel, I get an error message: TVAPP-00148. 

Xfinity stream is working on all other devices and has been working on this tv for about 3 years. I have uninstalled, reinstalled, restarted, and cleared data/cache/cookies. What is the error and how do I resolve it?

I've been having the same problem since yesterday. I have a Samsung Smart TV with a Roku device. Someone else in another thread commented that you can add Xfinity Stream to your Roku device as a workaround, if you have one.

Hello @Pchammond15, thanks for reahcing out. 

There was a Firmware update on Samsung TV's that cause the app to stop working on most 2121 and 2022 models. We are working with Samsung for a fix, but all your other devices should be working normally. If you are still having trouble with the stream app on your non-Samsung devices, please use the chat icon in the upper right to enter Direct Messaging. Once there, type "Xfinity Support" in the to line and select "Xfinity Support" from the drop-down list to send us a message with your full name and address.

That's the fun part....There is no remedy.  Feela like it's either wait till Samsung or Comcast make a change to make it work again OR do the Roku workaround as others have suggested.

@user_tmc2o3 - Our fix team is aware some Samsung smart TV customers may receive TVApp-00148 errors when attempting to tune to linear channels in the Stream app. And, our teams are working towards a fix. Apologies for any inconvenience this may have caused.

I’ve been having the same issue for the last 2 weeks. Stream app stopped working on all devices. iPhone, firetv, roku tv. Can’t find any solutions yet. Tried deleting and reinstall and signing out and back in. Still can’t watch anything.

Has xfinity made a statement about what is happening? Especially since they have increased the costs of the service, but the TV App remains ridiculously antiquated. Has there been any information about a fix for the issue?

Until they fix the problem, this worked for us. Go to the guide, record the show you want, then go to your recordings click on the show that's recording click watch.
