Rechargeable Voice Remote not responding

My remote suddenly stopped working mid movie last night. I assumed it was dead even though I never got a low battery indicator on screen. However it does not seem to charge or respond. Plugging it in only yields a flashing green light that pops up a notice on screen over and over (remote charging, remote battery life 100%). Unplugging the remote stops the light and warnings but it does not work even after being plugged into the original charger for a long time. The troubleshooting steps in here do not work because the remote does not respond even during attempts at re-pairing.

      Hello,

      No it is not. The original remote from Mar 2022 stopped working which is why I had to purchase this one which has been working since Feb 2023.

      Thanks for the update, Aaddamz!

      Is this a purchase you've made directly from Roku? Or through our partner retail stores like Walmart, Best Buy, Amazon, etc.

      If this is directly to our partner store, we'd recommend reaching out to them for further assistance.

      Please keep us posted!

      Regards,

      Rey

          I purchased through Amazon. It is no longer available for any support through Amazon and I was directed to reach out directly to Roku for help.
