Yes @continentalgt187 it's a sad state of affairs. I've found if you disable 'Sony shelf' and 'Sony services' in the apps settings and disable Youview (UK) then it's a much better experience. Though ironically this removes rem catch-up all's which is the main purpose of a 'Smart TV'.
The bug list for 7.1 is considerably smaller than the one for 6.x so it gives me hope!
Yes I disabled Youview then I went through all of the Apps and disabled every one I felt I didn't need and there were quite alot.
Obviously I stayed away from any Apps I didn't recognise or might be remotely connected to the operating system and it did make things more stable.
Having said that an hour ago I turned the TV off by the button at the back of the set and also put the sky box into standby as I had to pop out for 20 minutes, when I came home the TV had switched itself on yet again.
Because of this problem, a while ago I set the TV to switch itself OFF after 4 hours if it detects no activity which of course it will do if viewing sky or another input source, only problem is 4 hours into the evening it will tell you its switching off and you have to change a setting such as the volume on the TV to reset another 4 hours.
Because this can be a bit of a pain we went back to the default 24 hours as there is nothing in between but If you are away and it happens the TV will stay on for 24 hours before switching off.
Why cant Sony give us a 6 hour option so that at least we dont have the set staying on for a full day.
Did I really just say that, of course what I really mean is cure the problem, none of my previous Sony TV's ever had this fault.
