Rechargeable Roku Remote Issue

Hello, my rechargeable remote for the Roku streaming stick will not work unless plugged into the charger. If I take it off the charger it does nothing as if it’s dead. When I put it on the charger it flashes green fast and says 100% on the screen. Is there a way to fix this? I’ve tried all the solutions on here, but nothing is working. Serial YH007L190683

      Hello, I’ve used the remote for a year or so and the issue began a few months ago. We stopped using it and used the Roku app as our remote. Then I searched for a solution on here and tried to troubleshoot by reseting the remote and Roku stick, changing chargers and allowing it to charge for several hours. It’s charged at 100 percent, but when I take it off the charger it doesn’t respond.

        Thanks for keeping us posted, atrotman1210.

        We appreciate the steps you've taken to try and troubleshoot your physical Roku remote. 

        In this case, your remote might need a replacement, and since you mentioned that it was purchased a year ago, it is no longer covered under our limited warranty. You may refer to this link for additional information about this: Roku Limited Warranty

        In the meantime, we offer replacement remotes here that work well with your Streaming Stick 4K device:

        I hope you find this information helpful.

        Best regards,
        Carly
