Box freezing on startup fix

I saw people are having hassles with their boxes freezing. Its caused by a chromecast update. I fixed mine by first disconnecting it from the network. WiFi and cable. Might be easier just to turn off the router. Chromecast doesn't start if the box isn't connected to a network.

Start the box up. Goto settings then apps then find any app with the word chromecast listed under apps (Might be called Google cast if you haven't updated or factory reset receiver). Open each one. then force stop it. Then disable it.

I think there are two apps with the word chromecast in the name. Disable both if there are two. You should be fine after that. If there's an "uninstall updates" button for the any of the chromecast Apps do that too. I found out the hard way. I first factory my reset mine. (-:

Hey Joel, do you have any idea what else I can try has I've tried that and it isn't working. My 495 max hangs on the white android tv screen and goes no further. Tia
