TVPad 4 Automatically Erased Everything
Hi,
My Pad4 was running fine until I tried to change channels when the remote control would not respond. I was forced to power off the device (basically had to pull the plug). When I plugged the power adapter back in, the screen showed the TVPad Logo with the word "Erasing" right below the logo, then I had to go through the setup as if its a new setup. Once setup was complete, all of my apps disappeared. I also was unable to connect to the TVPad Store.
Also when I did an Internet Connection Test, I keep getting a Server Error Code:-1 error. What does this error mean? I have high speed cable and I was able to get online using my computer, smartphone etc. Only the TVPad was unable to connect. The testing progress bar shows 3 green checks until it reaches the Server option which gave me the -1 error code. My device is running Android 4.42 with system version 5.054.
How do I resolve the Server error and be able to connect online? My TVPad is connected using an Ethernet cable and setting was set to Auto. Should I do the Manual setting? If so, what DNS should I be using? Also how do I get the YueTV app installed back on the device?
Please help! I've never done this before so please provide step by step information so I can follow. Thank you so so much!

It should work after that.
@Padman - I was only able to find YueTV 0.40 in this forum, is this the latest version? I thought I had 0.42.
@cheuk5 - will firmware 5.066 work in the United States? I am located in Massachusetts. If so, how do I go about upgrading this firmware? Save to USB and plug it into Pad4 and will it auto launch and install? Last time I tried to install something using USB, it didn't do anything after I plugged it in.
Thanks again for your help!

Also, I was able to successfully side load YueTV 0.42 on my device running the existing firmware version 5.054 but "Live" TV is not working it keeps connecting at 1% so I went and do a "network test" again and got the same server error -1 code again, is this the way it should be? I got green checks for IP address, Gateway, and DNS -- but no green check for Server, got a -1 error code instead.
