Re: Roku device factory reset itself after an update

What the heck Roku. Sleeping last night and all of a sudden, the room lights up and my Roku stick says updated and I need to logi in. I had to go through all the setup **bleep** again to get it going.

Yes, the TV was set up for CEC control, but hey, don't turn on my TV at 2AM for an update!

This after a change the other day with OS 15 that required me to go and allow PC connections to all my Rokus.

Come on update team, get it together!

    Hi Compulynx​

    You mentioned that your Roku Streaming Stick automatically updated, which caused the device to require activation again.

    I just wanted to check—were you able to set it up and activate it successfully, or are you experiencing any issues?

    Looking forward to your reply.

      I was able to set it up. but what the heck? 2AM turning my TV on and then having to go throught the conplete setup again? PLUS I just noticed my Rokus have had the apple, netflix, hulu and howdy apps added back.

      Now I have to go delete them all again!

      Ridiculous!
