I am having the same problem with a Roku Premiere+ (4630 series) running software version 10.0.0 build 4209-29.
hgc159 any luck?
The roku will not add any channel. I was trying to solve another problem with authenticating a channel, and removed it. I rebooted, and not only could I not add the one I removed, but I couldn't remove any channels. There is no error. The display says "Adding Channel", and it just spins. Forever.
Yea, I spoke to Roku Customer (No) Support. We spent almost an hour on the phone and got nowhere. The rep blamed it on a technical issue, so she was going to have to send me over to IT support. There I was told I would receive a call the following day with a solution. A week goes by and no word from them. In the meantime I was able to add channels via the Roku Channel Store online. After about 10 days the problem resolved itself and I haven't had any issues since. I've purchased a Fire TV Stick and have been impressed. The wife still prefers the Roku, so we are keeping both for now.
Thanks for the response!
I was able to figure out the problem, finally. After unplugging, waiting, booting a few times with no success, I figured I would try one more time, but this time I re-seated the SD card. Either that was the issue, or it was just a coincidence, but it worked!
That's a great idea about adding from the web. I didn't even think of that! Next time, if the SD reseating trick doesn't work, that will be my next move.
How do you repeat the SD card?

Gergelaine, you can update or remove your PIN at https://my.roku.com . Make sure you're using the email address that's displayed under Settings->System->About on your Roku device to log in.
I tried "turning it off and turning it on again," as recommended by a contributor. No help.
I have a Roku television. No way to separate the "modem/router" from the "Roku."
Turning off a TV does not restart the TV. It merely goes into sleep mode. The only way to really restart the Roku TV is to use the menu option labeled "System restart" or pull the power cord for 30 seconds.
The modem/router is not part of your TV. It's the device that connects your home network to the Internet. You restart it the same way: pull the power then plug it back in.
