I installed this on my firestick works good. when I watched first movie it said this was a 7 day free trial will I be charged after seven days
Look. I registered the device. I’ve followed all of the steps, but when I put in a search for ES Explorer, let alone anything else, it tells me that there is an ‘error’ and that I should contact customer support. I can’t help but to think that doing so wouldn’t be very conducive to the success of what I’m trying to do.
My wireless connection is good and stable. Naturally, I’ve registered the device, but it still tells me that it is unable to connect to their network. It puts on a fantastic screensaver, allows me to download apps, but other than allowing me to access the menu options, I cannot go any further.
Can someone please help or provide me with some suggestions.
Hi, does it provide any additional information about the error or just says ‘error’?
