called customer service to get some help removing backdrops or disabling it. the person i spoke to first said it could not be removed, then i asked if it could be disabled. She said it could not be disabled. I searched on the internet and it seems that many people are frustrated with the backdrops app, add me to the list i want backdrops removed from my tv. i used to be able to simply press the off button and turn off the tv, now i have to go thru a cumbersome process after backdrops starts and it takes much more time to turn off my tv. turning something off should not be this difficult.

I tried this restart procedure very carefully and still have Backdrops. I want it off my TV
After my second try the TV now turns off . Believe me, no one wants the TV not to turn off when they push off.
