It started working again tonight. No firmware update on the TV.
It is still broken here.
There wasn't a firmware update the TV ad well. No idea why mine started working tonight.
Mine wasn't working this morning when I tried after reading these most recent reports, but it is working now this afternoon. No firmware updates, no changes in the TV configuration, nothing else changed in my environment, but my TV that wasn't working is now working again somehow. There must be some kind of back channel communication between the Roku devices and Roku's network, otherwise there's no real explanation for what's been happening. My formerly non-working but now working Roku TV is showing 3 days, 20 hours, and 51 minutes of uptime, so it hasn't rebooted or reset or anything between not working and working again.
Grateful it's working again, but that is a very weird and unexpected behavior and I'm not sure how I feel about that.
Is the difference that I'm using the 4K ultra device and not the TV? So far I'm seeing comments that some TVs are working.
Whatever changes are being made appears to be rolling out over time, so my best guess is that yours may be cleared up perhaps over the next day or so? I'm not sure how their systems are architected but usually with a large infrastructure footprint like Roku or Facebook or Google or the like, things get rolled out bit by bit to prevent having a big impact on everything at once in case they got something wrong. So fixes tend to roll out in groups, too, over short-ish periods of time.
I'd say that for people who are still having issues over the next few days, report back here if it's not working yet by the weekend or by Monday.
I'd really like to know how this fixed was pushed so I can prevent this from happening in the future along with other problems they've caused me. I thought I had all of the roku domains blocked but this fix must be getting pushed out differently somehow. Time to start detailed logging all the requests these boxes make.
I was told they push little updates about once a week. This is why the home screen and the themes change without the firmware version updating. If someone figures out which ports needs to be blocked for this to stop, please share them.
