Mine does now, too! Well, except that I can't enter broadcast stations like 21.3. When I press the dot (.) button I get some weird message about text mode not enabled???
So 2 points to TCL for finally making their OS recognize numbers from a remote, and -2 because it won't work on the broadcast channels. And we are watching the Broadcast TV tile! Sheesh!
It only took six years for them to get this far, I wonder if I'll still be alive when they get around to making it work on broadcast channels. smh
Which universal RC(s) are you guys using? And does it/they work well with TCL HDTVs?
I use Inteset 422-3 and One-For-All urc-7880 universal remotes. It works on both TCL & Insignia Roku tv's. I don't have antenna just live tv taken from different streaming services. So couldn't test sub-channels. The code in the remotes I listed is 14398 in the Inteset, and 4398 in the OFA remote.
Brought out older universal remotes the OFA urc-6690 hybrid and Sony vl-600, found the working code in each and the numbers work too on the roku tv's. This includes ch up & down keys.
