Hi @Thunder63
First make sure that the Television is switched on and is switched to the HDMI input to which the Q box is connected.
Then with the Q box switched on with green led illuminated 
Press
Home 1 0 8 0 Home
on the Q box remote control.
This will change the Q box to standard resolution which will work for all TV’s.

Can't get any response when pressing Home 1080 Home
when I take out the orange power cable and replace I get the message on the TV
Sky TV you will be ready to go in a couple of mins
followed by press the home button when the screen goes blank
then it goes HDMI 1 no signal

hi @Thunder63
Have you tried pressing the Standby button (Amber led) on the front of the Q box.
If this turns the Q box on 
With the Q box on with green led try completly resetting your Bluetooth remote. 
Press and hold 7 & 9 together on the remote until it’s led flashes four times. 
Then make sure that you are pointing your remote at the Q box and press 1 & 3 together until the led flashes and follow onscreen instructions to re- pair to TV.

No Nothing has changed @Thunder63
It's just that 1080i resolution is the native Q box resolution
