Arris DCX3200 boxes reverted from Spectrum Guide to i-Guide

Both of my DCX3200 cable boxes had been smoothly running Spectrum Guide up until today. Both downgraded sometime in the last 18-20 hours to the HD version of i-Guide.


Have others experienced this? Is this intentional on Spectrum's part or is there some glitch that may be causing this? For what it's worth, Spectrum chat reps didn't seem to have any idea what I was talking about. However, the i-Guide seems to be missing quite a few features I have grown accustomed to in the time that I've had Spectrum Guide.

    Hi @nelsonjw, sorry about the trouble with your guide!

    I'm not aware of any known issues like this. Have you tried rebooting the receivers? Are you having any problems with the service besides the guide change?

    Reboots did not help. Even tried unplugging for 5 minutes and plugging back in.

    No other service issues.

    I'm sorry rebooting didn't help. You mentioned speaking with chat reps, did they troubleshoot with you at all?

    Chat reps could not help (but for suggesting turning the boxes off and back on again) and suggested swapping out the boxes. I am on the phone now with a call center rep who said that someone deleted the Spectrum Guide codes from my account on Wednesday and they are working with a lead to try to get them added back.

    Spectrum Guide is working again after a lead added the proper codes back to my account. No one could figure out how they got removed. For about 45 minutes the two boxes had no guide software or on-screen interface, but in the last five minutes or so the boxes came back up properly running Spectrum Guide.
