How to stop the "press the ok button on your remote to watch recordings"

Current update…. The final option (because Telus doesn’t care) that is available is to replace the 4k pvr and associated wireless tv boxes with the new “Digital” boxes telus us supplying to their new customers (but hiding them from their exiting ones). These are referred to as “evolution” even though not labeled as such.  

These are android based, and PVR storage is cloud based with an additional $10 per month charge for that.  Additionally, the pvr storage is only for 90 days. The user interface is very poorly designed…I assume by people who do not watch TV or Record and playback shows.  The remote does have dedicated Netflix and Prime buttons, does light up when woken up, and also has some voice command compatibility.  Navigation throughout the various menus and options is also very, very poorly  designed (did I say very). Even though it claims to be an easy self-install, there is no detailed how to manual or instructions.  I spent over an hour on the phone with tech support setting up the boxes, as most of my ho- to questions were not covered in the documentation, nor in the online wizards on Telus’ website.  

But back to the point of this forum thread…. Since replacing and reprogramming on Friday, there have been no noticed messages or notifications to “press ok on your remote…”. However  3 days doesn’t mean the downfalls of the android  system isn’t worse than the previous devil.  Hopefully there are many improvements coming in the near future.

If interested, these can be ordered on Telus.com, or the loyalty department….you just need to return the old equipment to Telus…

This customer may be moving elsewhere in the future if Telus continues to care less and less about what it supples to its customers.
