'Device was removed' message
Several times I have turned my TV on and I get a message saying "device was removed". The Roku automatically reconnects after about 10 seconds.
No loss of power, no disconnection was ever made, and the device is firmly plugged in.
This occurs about once a week on average and is a device only a few months old.
Ideas?
WE147, many (most?) TV USB ports can't supply enough power for a Roku device.
Yeah, I would plug the Roku into the power adapter into the wall. If you ever see the “USB device was removed” after that, you’ll know its not related to the Roku.
