When I googled this issue, the result came back with a “solved” tag which led me to this forum. Going out and buying a new TV is NOT a solution. My Onn Roku just started this same issue yesterday. I fact, I thought I was going crazy when when I woke up, my TV had turned itself on overnight. Onn/Roku are notorious for forcing system updates to the unlucky owners of these walmart Onn TVs. This is a SOFTWARE problem. More likely than not, the software was corrupted during the update download. Now it is hilarious when the tec says to check your internet connection. Kinda like when Bill Gates used to tell us to Control-Alt-Delete. This started with at5, and then continued with multiple other owners. It is hard to go to Settings for a reset when the Onn tv will not stay on long enough to accomplish. My guess is NOBODY solved this issue. I have another external ROKU Device which connects to a plain tv via HDMI and it works fine. So that tells me it is an Onn problem. Real solution: Buy another tv, just don’t buy Onn. Might also consider Firestick.
Yep! Exactly! I spent 600$ for this to keep happening’ i am so upset! And frustrated. It is definitely an Onn situation because i have Roku on my daughters tv! I am so upset over this it never stops … and the customer support is no help. They tell me to check my switches etc when my other tv has no issues same plugs. So frustrating
See my fix I entered below.
I found my own fix. Went back to google and found another link which directed me to the small reset button on the back of the tv near the USB ports. It is not marked as reset, but I held it in for about 30 seconds and the Onn tv did a complete reset. I had to go back and activate my system and apps but at least “for now” it seems to work. Or at least until Onn wants to force another update on me.
That button was one of the first things I tried. It didn't stop the rebooting. My TV won't even shut off, it just keeps rebooting over and over again until unplugged. Once plugged back in - it starts that reboot cycle all over again. Thank you though.
It freezes on every app and shuts off, then gets stuck trying to turn back on then shuts off again and repeats the process. I tried restarting it through the system, factory resetting to see if that was the issue, plugged it into a different outlet, and it still does the same thing
Hi, at5!
Thank you for taking the time to report this issue. We appreciate your efforts in bringing this to our attention.
Based on the details you provided, the problem seems to be related to connectivity. To resolve this, please check the stability and performance of your Wi-Fi connection, as fluctuations in speed or signal strength can cause delays. Make sure your network connection is strong enough to support multiple devices.
You can try resetting your TV network by accessing the system settings.
- Press Home on your Roku remote
- Scroll and select Settings
- Select Advanced System settings
- Select Network connection reset
- Select Reset connection
Note: Before proceeding with these troubleshooting steps, please make sure that you know your network name and password.
For additional options and detailed information, please refer to the support page. How to fix internet errors and issues on your Roku streaming device/TV
If the issue still persists, you can try to establish a connection using another network, such as a Mobile hotspot.
There are two options for using a Mobile hotspot.
- If you have an iOS® device, refer to Apple's documentation on setting up a personal hotspot.
- If you have an Android™ device, refer to Google's documentation on sharing a mobile connection by hotspot.
Let us know if this step will make any difference.
Thanks,
ElmerI have the same issue! 75in ONN Roku TV. Please help! I have tried 2 Factory Resets, multiple restarts, Network Resets, different power outlets, etc.
My TV turns on, but then when I try to launch Netflix or Disney + it allows me to select my show or movie but when I press play the TV immediately turns off. And will not turn back on successfully for some minutes. Very frustrating. Just purchased this TV 2 months ago brand new.
- Same thing with me! It won’t even play the movie or show for longer than 5 minutes! I’m so over it! It’s frustrating
- Mine is now doing this too! It’s brand new and nothing is fixing this! Did you ever find something that worked ? Thanks so much
