Thank you for confirming that you are actually using the Xibo for Android player. Below is a link to a guide on how to set up and send commands to your Xibo for Android player, which contains 4 reboot commands you can try. I usually use the `svc power reboot` for my players but you may wish to use one of the others. Please follow the steps and make sure you have set up your reboot command as mentioned in the guide. If the send command functionality is not working, please follow the section on how to schedule a command.

If it works when you use the schedule command functionality, then we know that the command is set up correctly and the issue is somehow XMR related. If that is the case, I would still recommend:

- Making sure that the time, date and time zone are correct on the device running your Android player to within 30 seconds.
- Testing other XMR related commands such as collect now.
- making sure that you have allowed traffic on the port you have configured your XMR service to use (9505 by default), in case the messages are being blocked by a firewall or other network configuration.

Many Thanks.
