Rogers Anyplace TV App - Please check your connection and try again. (1003)

[darthwolf]

Able to connect to Rogers Anytime via phone and laptop but using my tablet, when I click on the channel to watch, it starts to connect then get the message:  Are you connect to the Internet?  Please check your connection and try again. (1003).    A bit weird how would I be able to connect to the app and find the channel if I wasn't connected to the internet?

Hey @darthwolf!

Sorry to hear you're unable to use the app on your tablet! Error 1003 is a more rare error code, I can appreciate the concern for sure. I'm glad to hear it's working on your phone! Couple of questions that could help us identify the issue:

Which version of Android are you using on the tablet?

Which version of the RAPTV app are you using?

Have you tried uninstalling/reinstalling the app?

Thanks!

• Has the app ever worked on this specific tablet or is this the first time you are trying to use it on this device? - has worked previously, last time use this tablet to access anytime TV was prob 2 or 3 months ago.
• Can you confirm the make and model of the android tablet? - Samsung GT-P5210
• Have you tried another Wi-Fi network or a mobile hotspot on your phone to see if any channels will stream? - tired 2 different networks, not sure why that would be an issue since I tablet is connected to internet and can access youtube and other sites.

Hello again, @darthwolf

We appreciate all of the details you've provided.

That specific device is close to 10 years old and stopped receiving software updates in 2016. While it does meet the very minimum app compatibility requirements of Android 4.4 and up to download, all of the features may not function as intended.

As new updates are rolled out, even the Android 4.4 versions will no longer be supported. If the app is working for you without issues on your other devices with newer OS's then it would be related to your specific device and not the app.

I know this is not the answer you were hoping to hear. 😞

Hello @Bartman11,

Thanks for joining us in the Rogers Community Forums, I hope your weekend is off to a nice start. 🙂

I regret to advise that Rogers Anyplace TV was decommissioned for use with Digital TV Packages effective as of  October 10th, 2021. 

If you would like to continue to enjoy TV through our streaming portal or on your mobile devices, we’d suggest switching to one of our Ignite TV bundles. This newer technology and service provides access to an Ignite TV app and a streaming portal packed with features such as easy search & discovery while allowing you to enjoy TV shows, movies and music all in one place. You can review our available packages by clicking here.
