    Anyone experiences issue with their system after the update?

    Hasn't done this until now. Generally when I shut off my system I close whatever game I have instead of leaving it active.

    Well, now most of the time when I start the system up the last game I played will start up by itself and the home screen with start flickering across the middle. I can fix it by closing the game but if I do that I cannot start the game back up. I have to restart the entire system. Rather annoying.

    Haven't got around to updating yet, because it doesn't automatically do it when starting it up, (which is really odd to me). But from what I've heard, no issues so far. Did they add the function to launch games that are in the drive, like the 360 had? Maybe that's why yours is doing it?

    That's the odd thing is that it's a downloaded game. There's no disk in the console! Maybe there is an option somewhere to start up whatever game you played last or something. Doubtful I'd think though because that would be an annoyance and that doesn't explain the glitchy home screen when it happens. Just hoping my system isn't crapping out or something. Haven't heard anyone say anything about it either so I guess it's just my own issue.

    Do you use the instant-on functionality? I don't know, but I have not had the best experience with that.. rather buggy. Don't really have any new issues with this latest update.

    I would advise anyone to use Power-Saving instead of instant-on. The Xbone itself is still kinda shitty though.

    Always a good idea to do a hard reset after a big update (hold the front power button down for about 5 seconds). It solves most problems.

    @superfriend: I forgot that this console had that "feature". OP that could very well be the problem.
