Have you tried to reset the Hopper by unplugging from the power outlet for 10-15 seconds? Also, have you tried to reset the Broadband connection?

I've been getting more lately and there's no rhyme or reason as to why or what makes it happen.

That was the beginning of my Hopper failure. Once I talked with Tech, they said lets arrange to swap it out.............next up watch for screen freeze

I have had my hopper3 for a week now and for the last 3 nights and I get a black screen with a picture in the upper right corner. This requires a reboot. Wife is not happy....

I had that issue for a couple days and then it 'magically' quit doing it. No rhyme or reason.

Mine did that the other night and I thought oh crap here we go with this problem from the 922. I hit a bunch of keys and it came out of it. Not sure what I did! I think it was just channel changes, menus, guide, DVR etc. Just pushed a bunch of things. Maybe it was going to an info screen ...

I am getting black screen flicker as well. It does it randomly, and will last between just a flicker to up to one or two seconds. I will try rebooting and see if that helps.

ETA--I am getting this flicker regardless of how the programming is coming in: Netflix (although it seems worse on Netflix), On Demand, DVR recorded shows and live tv.

Haven't seen that ....yet.

My wife is handicapped and watches from early morning and has no problems. When she retires for the night she uses her Joey. I am going to reboot when she retires and hope it works for me.
