xfinity stream app on roku,

App stopped working with error TVAPP-00116.  Trouble shooter, removed app and reinstall.  It is not the same app.  I cannot get my basic cable lineup with live tv & local channels.  Guide says tv go for channels.  I am connected wirelessly to my home network.

Hi there, user_2wd803! Thanks for reaching out about the Xfinity Stream app error you are getting. We are happy to further assist you. I appreciate the steps you tried to resolve this. I do not see this as a known issue but do see a similar issue with Samsung TVs. When you uninstalled the app, did you restart the Roku before you reinstalled it? I ask because that will clear out any old data from the app that may be causing the problem.

Yes I did restart and I also unplugged the tv.  I have removed and reinstalled the app multiple times along with reconnecting to my home wi-fi.  The App is not the same as it was before.  There are no local channels or the basic cable channels that I paid for.  On my phone's xfinity stream app, I can get everything.

Thank you for confirming that @user_2wd803! We have a dedicated article for compatible Roku devices here. Is your Roku device currently using the firmware version 8.1 b1 or higher and listed as a compatible model in that article?
