said by not :Mind reading isn't required. Reading and comprehending the OP is however. Go back and read the 3rd sentence in the OP. Blatantly states that putting in a ZIP does pull up the guide as a workaround. So... ya. Nice try.
Also, I've already been back and forth with Comcast as stated in another post here. They're scratching their heads because it's on the backend and they can't fix it. Most likely another update to the app, once they're done testing the newly integrated X Guide options will fix this, but they're dragging their feet with it.
Do not like it do not use it It is simple.
