First, if you are a Rogers employee I don't wish to offend you in anyway. I'm sure you are well aware many people do not like the new quick start guide. I'm happy Rogers listened for a change.

If you dislike the new Rogers 'Advertising' Quick Start Guide here's how to get rid of it (as of Mar 4, 2010)
1. On remote, click the guide button
2. Select “Self-Service”
3. Click “Change GUIDE Order” option
4. Select one of the following options: “Quick Start menu first” or “TV Listings first.”

Keep in mind, if you press the guide button a second time (which used to take you out of the menu) it will now take you to the Quick Start menu - so you'd have to press "exit" or select a television channel to avoid seeing the Quick Start menu.

Pass it on.

If you really want to give Rogers your opinion about their new Guide go here.....

...and when you get to the Question: "To the best of your recollection, have you used the Quick Start menu" choose YES. If you choose NO the survey is over.

 

Thanks Paul, I'll do it right away.

 

Awesome! That thing is annoying!

 

OP>
I was looking for how to disable it

Dang Robbers and why is my cable bill never consistent have to call them EVERY month...sorry for the rant

 

i hear ppl are getting free hdpvr rentals for a year... wtf!!! i pay 24.95 a month for that sh*T!

 

Yeah, I heard that too. If you complain to the right person you might get lucky and get something "free".
This QSG had me angry enough that I started shopping Bell online. I tend to dislike Bell more. Rogers came up with this Guide option just in the nic of time or I was on my way out the revolving door.

 

i have my pvr free for 2 years
and HBO half price

 

^ You switched over from Sat. ?

 

^no Robbers customer for 10+ years
It was free for 1 year one of the reps accidentaly "took it off" and they gave me additional free year

I am actually thinking of swtiching to Bell...

 

If you do go to Bell just be careful of their contract bullsh1t. That's the only way to get in unless you purchase the hardware which, by the way, is priced way better than the Rogers PVR/HD terminals. I think they want you to sign up for 2 years min. if you intend to rent.
I'm still thinking about switching. I used to have Starchoice. One very simple feature I loved with Sat. is I could block all the channels, that I did not subscribe to, from the guide. Why can't we do this with digital cable?...because they want us to see what we are missing.

 

bell has some good deals on their new internet too, used it to drop my rogers internet price.

 

thx man, that menu was so annoying !! finally im done with it

 

Fantastic Paul!!!!
Thanks for posting this up.
I don't like that menu at all.

 

i fixed it but i was so used to pushing the menu button twice , i am constantly trying to go back to that fugly menu

 

I didnt think this was that much of a problem
