Re: Indoor camera not working or connecting

My Roku indoor cameras won’t even update the new firmware, so I can’t even look at my cameras on the mobile app. I’ve installed & uninstalled multiple times.

all devices are on the same network.

Re: Indoor camera not working or connecting

Hi @Ajballard,

Greetings from the Roku Community!

We'll be glad to assist you with your problem with updating the new firmware on your Roku Smart Home app. Are you getting any error messages? Kindly try the below steps to see if they can resolve the issue:

  1. Refresh the screen.
  2. Sign out of the Roku Smart Home app and sign back in.
  3. Uninstall and re-install the Roku Smart Home app to ensure the app is up-to-date.
  4. Restart your Roku Indoor Camera SE. (Unplug the USB cable from the back of your camera, wait 10 seconds, and plug the USB cable back into the power input port on your camera.)
  5. Factory reset your camera. If there is a microSD card inserted, remove it. Plug in your camera if it is not already powered on, press and hold the Setup button for 10 seconds, wait at least 30 seconds for your camera to restart, and you will see the status light on your camera flashing red.
  6. Restart your modem and router.

For more details, you can check out this article about troubleshooting the issue when updating firmware on your smart home device. Additional troubleshooting articles are available if your smart home device is offline, will not power on, or is not working after performing a software update. Release notes with details about the latest firmware updates are also available.

We hope this is helpful, and we look forward to hearing from you with further information on this.

Kind regards,                                                                                                                                  Eunice

Re: Indoor camera not working or connecting

I got Roku cameras for my home. It worked really well for about 2 weeks. One of my cameras wouldn’t update, so it no longer works and won’t even turn on anymore.no blinking lights or anything. My other camera went completely out today with no warning. Also won’t turn on. I’m not sure what to do, I can’t even get update or turn on. How do I get it replaced by Roku? These cameras are only a month or so old. I feel like I wasted my money
