Grey bar across bottom of Roku TV Screen

I have a gray bar going across the bottom third of the TV screen. It has a caution symbol, wanting me to plug the USB into the power outlet. Does anyone know how to get rid of it? I have already tried hard and soft resets. I have done updates. 

  • Hi Twistdsouls,

    • Remove the power cord of your Roku TV for at least 10 seconds before plugging it back in.
