Absolutely ridiculous that I can't get my Xfinity App to work on my Samsung TV.  Just happened in last 24 hours.  Was working for years.  Tried installing and uninstalling.  Turned TV on and off.  Reset my network.  Nothing worked.  The app is working on my older Samsung TV but not my newer one.  Xfinity customer service sucks.  No solution.

Again very interesting that you are experiencing the same thing.  My older TV is not experiencing the issue but the newer 4K is.

I am having the same issue with my Samsung frame TV's started yesterday morning.  I have a tech here, he has no idea why.  I have to get Xfinity boxes and pay 10/month for each to make the Xfinity service work on the TVs.  Is there someone from Xfinity that can answer the question why the Xfinity Stream app is not compatible with certain Samsung TV's all of a sudden?  These are 2022 Frame TV's, with the software updated.  I have reinstalled and deleted the app ten times, nothing is working to resolve the issue.  Need a fix

Very interesting that your issue and my issue began on the same day.

I'm having the same issue with my Samsung 4k TV. I've uninstalled and reinstalled the Xfinity Stream app. I looked up the error in other forum posts, and it said it was a caching error. But it should have rectified if you uninstall and reinstall since it removes any cache.

I then looked up another post, which says it is an app/connectivity error. I assume that there is a break in their system. I also saw that they updated the app on 01/10/2024. I don't know when Xfinity will rectify this, as it is their problem. The downside is that customer services keep giving a loop around. Also, their "chatbot" doesn't help either.

I share all your frustrations with customer service.  I have been handed around to more than 5 department over 10 calls.

I finally got ahold of someone in Advanced Technical Services who admitted there is a compatibility issue between Samsung smart TVs and the Xfinity Streaming App that is preventing the ability to access LIVE TV.  I communicated to the agent that Xfinity's customer service is broken and I would like to discuss with upper management as we are paying for a service and getting extremely poor, uninformed customer service if Ican get a person.  He said software engineers are working on fixing the issue and their hope it will be resolved shortly (not sure if hours or days).

Thank you for sharing that you actually spoke with a tech person who is actually aware of the problem.

Being able to speak to anybody is frustrating, let alone someone who can actually help.
