Hello all,
I have a problem with the Google Play Store. When I open the application its Home screen flickers with what is supposed to be shown, you know... apps and such, and then it goes empty - there is nothing shown. As seen here:
Anyone have the same problem? Or better yet a solution?

Sony supoort has send me an email with workarounds, that I will try as soon as I get back home.
JFYI:
- Workaround 1: Go to “Home” - Settings - Network - Remote start - Switch to Off - Unplug and re-plug TV power cord. Did this Workaround help to resolve the issue ?
- Workaround 2: Go to “Home” - Settings - System Preferences Date & Time - Automatic Date & time - Switch to Off - Unplug and re-plug TV power cord. Did this Workaround help to resolve the issue ?

Neither of the provided two workarounds had any effect on the Google Play Store application for me as well.

It looks that 6.0.2 leanback its the latest PlayStore version for Android TV, but if you guys think that might worth trying to downgrade to previous version 5.10.31, see how it goes and try to upgrade to 6.0.2 again.
Here you can get the apk's for PlayStore for android tv:

you cannot downgrade. It's from the app itself because before the update it was ok with the 5.10.31 leanback

Just saw there is a new firmware update v3.179 as of today 02.02.2016 for W8c and W7c models.
I am currious if this will fix the PlayStore empty issue.

Please confirm if the new fw resolves the problem. It is 'hoped' that it will, but unfortunately this problem cannot be replicated in testing. So fingers crossed
